History Memes / TVTropes

* Tropers/TheAdvertisementServer is Wiki/TVTropes' own MemeticBadass. Or at least, Memetic Wiseass. Giving {{Made Of Win}}s to said server became so popular, it got its own honorary contributor page and a separate JustForFun/MadeOfWin section ''just for it,'' dubbed JustForFun/AdOfWin.

* JustifyingEdit

*** "God" is often replaced by [[OhMyGods whoever is considered a major deity]] in that related 'verse, most notably Arceus when discussing {{Pokemon}}.

** Not only are we contractually obligated to remind you about [[TabletopGame/{{Warhammer 40000}} Fabius Bile]]'s labcoat (it's made of human skin, since you asked), we're contractually obligated to remind you about our contractual obligation thereof.

* Tropers/ManWithoutABody started using the phrase "That is all" for examples that were SelfExplanatory or [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin exactly what they said on the tin]]. The whole thing was done with quite a [[CompleteWorldKnowledge John Hodgman]] influence, as it's one of his {{catch phrase}}s. The phrase has spread a bit across the wiki.

** To elaborate, JustForFun/{{Hello}} was made specifically because it was the only part of that quote that wasn't in [[DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment blue]].

* The phrase 'loli rape bunker' has become popular after being used in a thread on the forums about a German/Swiss {{Hikikomori}} {{Otaku}} who bought a bunker to [[PornStash store all his]] [[{{Lolicon}} loli]] [[{{Squick}} rape]] {{doujinshi}} in, so that he could fap all the way through Armaggeddon. Disturbingly yet hilariously, many people on the forum have now changed their user location to say 'loli rape bunker' or a variation thereof.

* Referring to Wiki/{{Wikipedia}} as TheOtherWiki or ThatOtherWiki.

Remember that trope names are often built off of existing references or memes, or are chosen to match what people would "naturally" call something, so it can sometimes be difficult to untangle whether a memetic trope name originated on TVTropes or was merely spread by it.

** Probably hit critical mass when it was used for a gag in ''[[WalkyVerse Shortpacked!]]''

** Martin Van Buren [[MoreInformationThanYouRequire really was]] a Time Lord.

** [[NoExceptYes Except when it does.]]

** Except when it does.

* "You needed to know this." A meme from [[TVTropesForum the forum's "Trash Heap" thread]].

** [[MemeticBadass Look. No. Further.]] [[PiratesOfTheCaribbean William "Bootstrap Bill" Turner]] '''''IS A TIME LORD'''''. Who makes ''EVERYONE'' '''THEIR TARDIS on Wiki/TVTropes'''!

*** "God" is often replaced by [[OhMyGods whoever is considered a major deity]] in that related 'verse, like Arceus when discussing {{Pokemon}}.

*** If this line is used describing anything in {{Pokemon}}, replace "God" with [[OhMyGods "Arceus"]].

* This wiki also spawned a minor memetic mutation regarding the game ''{{Prey}}''. After Tropers/{{Nezumi}} casually pointed out the significant usage of sphincters and sphincter-like structures in the WombLevel portions of ''Prey'', it's become a running gag to make references to sphincters any time it's mentioned on the wiki. At one point, the Sphere the game takes place in was referred to in an entry as "the sphinctership."

'''[[StatlerAndWaldorf Waldorf]]:''' Simple! They wouldn't shut up otherwise!\\

* HeyItsThatGuy: *character's name* is *name of other characters that the actor has played with hotlinks to series that those characters are from*.

* Look no further than WildMassGuessing: EveryoneIsJesusInPurgatory and [[Franchise/AssassinsCreed Altaïr]], [[MemeticBadass who kills everything]]. Everyone is also a TimeLord and LightNovel/HaruhiSuzumiya, and living inside the subconscious of both [[StElsewhere Tommy Westphall]] and [[Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion Shinji Ikari]].

* Due to [[{{Fanservice}} fortunate]] ClothingDamage in the ''[[Film/FantasticFour2005 Fantastic Four]]'' movies, [[Wiki/TVTropes we]] have come to the conclusion that ''even the laws of physics'' want to see [[TheUltimateSexyWomenOfHollywood Jessica Alba]] naked.

** Also, always write [[DanGreen DAN GREEN!!!]] and {{BRIAN BLESSED}} in capital letters (especially the latter!)

** Any sentence... which... mentions... WilliamShatner... must be riddled... with... dramatic pauses.
