Added DiffLines:

An index of all our tropes that are about the contents of a list.

Therefore, NotOnTheList, as it's a gag based on a list, not about how the contents of a list relate to each other, so it doesn't count.

Neither does the EvilOverlordList, which is JustForFun.

Nor GrandTabletopRulesList or RulesOfTheInternet.

ObsessedAreTheListmakers may occur at the same time as any of the tropes listed here.
