Line #10 PlayingWith/FieryRedhead

3	* '''Exaggerated''':
4	** {{Evil Redhead}}
5	** All characters with red hair in the series have hot tempers.
6	** Or a character with blood-red hair is an AxCrazy PsychoForHire whose victims will be redheads when she's done with them.
7	* '''Downplayed''': Alice is easily annoyed, which she expresses through [[DeathGlare withering glances]] and [[TheSnarkKnight sharp remarks]], and has red hair.
8	* '''Justified''':
9	** Alice wishes that she didn't have what she thinks of as ugly red hair, so when someone teases her for it, she loses her temper.
10	** Alice is a RedHeadedStepchild, [[FreudianExcuse whose temper is the result of being mocked and bullied a lot during childhood]].
11	** Alice is just like that, regardless of hair color.
12	* '''Inverted''':
13	** Alice has simple auburn hair and knows how to be a peacemaker between characters who lose their tempers.

19	** Alice has red hair and is a PerpetualSmiler and ThePollyanna. Everyone else has a fiery temper but her.
20	** Alice has scarlet red hair and is TheStoic.
21	* '''Subverted''':
22	** A bully specifically targets Alice, assuming she's easily going to get angry because of her hair color, but she ignores the teasing calmly because Alice is an EmotionlessGirl, a mellow redhead if you will.
23	** Alice is a redhead but she has a rather low-key personality instead of having a hot temper.
24	* '''Double Subverted''':
25	** But the bully should have remembered to BewareTheNiceOnes because when he is least expecting it, Alice punches him in the face and unleashes a ClusterFBomb.
26	** Alice, being human and all does have her limits, so if even she gets mad and gives a WhatTheHellHero reaction, you know you royally fucked up.
27	* '''Parodied''':
28	** Everyone in the anger management class has red hair.
29	** Alternatively, [[ProperLady Alice]], a [[HairOfGoldHeartOfGold natural blonde]], dyes her hair red and turns into a MoodSwinger.
30	** Alice is a ShrinkingViolet with red hair. But because the area she's in doesn't have many redheads, everybody thinks of her as TheDreaded and won't dare insult her for how they think she'll react.
31	* '''Zig Zagged''': A bully targets Alice but she ignores him, until he goes too far and she {{Groin Attack}}s. However, she is [[TheStoic calm while berating him]], showing that her temper is still in check, until the bully says something completely unrelated and unintentional and she {{Megaton Punch}}es him out of town.
32	* '''Averted''':
33	** Either Alice is no more hotheaded than any other character or there are no hotheaded characters in the cast.
34	** Redheads are not present in the setting.
35	* '''Enforced''': "We want the audience to understand Alice's personality from the get-go. Let's see... Alice is a redhead, [[ColorMotifs red means anger or passion]]. There. Give Alice a temper. People won't believe she's a real redhead without it."
36	* '''Lampshaded''':
37	--> '''Bob''': Look out for Alice's temper, she's just like a typical redhead.
38	* '''Invoked''':
39	--> '''Alice''': You don't want to make me angry! I'm a redhead!
40	** Alice has a fiery temper and [[DyeHard dyes her hair red]] as a warning.
41	* '''Exploited''':
42	** Alice and the gang need a distraction, so they stage a scene where Alice has a screaming fit, knowing everyone will buy the act since she has red hair.
43	** Alice is a redheaded MartialPacifist who exploits this reputation to overcome conflicts without the use of violence.
44	* '''Defied''': Alice purposely tries to control her anger so as not to fall under the redhead stereotype.
45	* '''Discussed''':
46	-->'''Bob''': You'd think Alice was a redhead, given how angry she gets at the slightest provocation.\
47	'''Bill''': Oh look, there's Alice having another yelling fit. Best to steer clear of the redheads.
48	* '''Conversed''':
49	-->'''Bob''': Why are the red-haired characters always so angry?\
50	'''Bill''': Yeah. Fiction makes no sense. I have red hair, but I'm not a screaming lunatic.
51	* '''Deconstructed''': Alice is stereotyped by others as being [[HairTriggerTemper short-tempered]] due to her having red hair, and [[AllofTheOtherReindeer no one wants to be around her either out of fear or hatred]]. Alice becomes depressed and eventually frustrated with everyone's attitude toward her, having every instance of losing her patience overblown and attributed to her red hair.
52	* '''Reconstructed''': Alice meets Bob, who loves redheads and doesn't mind her [[HotBlooded feisty]] [[{{Tsundere}} persona]].
53	* '''Played For Laughs''': Alice freaks out at the slightest of problems, such as a papercut. HilarityEnsues when everyone hears Alice screaming loudly across the hall... At the sight of a ladybug.
