25#EarlyInstallmentWeirdness.WebAnimation: The first ''WebAnimation/RetardedAnimalBabies'' animation had the animals recite the alphabet.

26#Funny.DoctorWhoSeries10: This possibly becomes even funnier once TheReveal of the '''[[SublimeRhyme entity's identity]]''' happens. '''OOU rhyme'''
27#Headscratchers.AtlantisTheLostEmpire: Anyone notice that Rourke (and to a much lesser extent, Helga) is the ''only'' character from the film to actually still appear in the merchandise? Why did Disney still want to market him instead of everyone else from the film? They actually did '''[[SublimeRhyme the same thing]]''' with [[WesternAnimation/TheBlackCauldron the Horned King.]] '''OOU rhyme'''
28#Laconic.NoGuyWantsAnAmazon: Guys don't make passes at [[ActionGirl girls who]] kick '''[[SublimeRhyme asses]]'''. '''OOU rhyme'''

30#Main.ChristmasTropes: [[GratuitousFrench Joyeux Noel]], from [[Franchise/DisneyPrincess Princess]] '''[[SublimeRhyme Belle]]'''. '''OOU rhyme'''
31#Main.{{Cliche}}: The term cliché is also sometimes used to refer to a verbal {{meme}}. This usage is almost exclusively reserved for old folk sayings. Expressions such as "the early bird gets the worm" and "raining cats and dogs" are examples. Of course, just like internet memes, cliches [[PlayingWithATrope mutate]] over time and iterations. One person [[PopularSayingBut might say]] "The early bird gets the worm, [[{{Metaphorgotten}} but who wants worms]]?", "The early worm feeds the bird", or "It's raining cats and '''[[SublimeRhyme frogs]]'''!" '''OOU rhyme'''
32#Main.ClimacticVolcanoBackdrop: The climax of ''WesternAnimation/TheJungleBook2'' is very similar, with Mowgli, Shanti, Ranjan, Baloo, and Bagheera luring [[Creator/TonyJay Shere]] [[KnightOfCerebus Khan]] into a volcano where they then throw him into the very bottom of said volcano and crush him with a stone tiger head (although he was still alive even after he was hit by '''[[SublimeRhyme said stone tiger head)]]''', [[FridgeHorror just in time for the vultures to arrive...]] '''OOU rhyme'''

34#Main.DoesNotLikeShoes: Many performers like to '''[[SublimeRhyme eschew shoes]]''' while performing on stage, often to feel more relaxed or to alleviate stage fright. '''OOU rhyme'''
35#Main.FakeWeakness: In ''VideoGame/NoMoreHeroes'', the boss Bad Girl will sometimes fall to the ground, seeming like a big opening for you to attack... [[CombatPragmatism take a single swing at her while she's on the ground]] and she'll parry, and the game will enter a cinematic of her beating you to death. Seems like a trap for gamers who are used to bosses who periodically leave themselves vulnerable, right? Well, not quite - she actually has two "fall to the ground crying" animations. One leads to the instant kill, and the other genuinely ''is'' an opportunity to knock her senseless. The trick is [=[[spoiler:=]to check her hands: '''[[SublimeRhyme If one's still on the bat,]]''' '''''[[SublimeRhyme do not attack]]''''']]. '''OOU rhyme'''
36#Main.{{Glurge}}: The end of ''Film/{{Knowing}}'' was blatant Glurge. [=[[spoiler:=]'''[[SublimeRhyme Earth fries, everybody dies.]]''' '''OOU rhyme'''
37#Main.GotTheWholeWorldInMyHand: Wondering how villainous a character is? Sometimes you have to wait for them to [[KickTheDog kick some canines]], but sometimes [[ObviouslyEvil you can tell right off the bat]] when they stamp themselves with a logo that displays their contempt for humanity by either depicting the Earth (or any other beloved symbol of the free world) being '''[[SublimeRhyme squeezed, seized, nabbed, grabbed]]''' or suffering any other kind of torment. '''OOU rhyme'''
38#Main.HighAltitudeBattle: ''Franchise/SuperMarioBros'': ''VideoGame/SuperMarioGalaxy'' and ''VideoGame/SuperMarioGalaxy2'' take this further, as all of the battles with Bowser '''[[SublimeRhyme now take place in outer space.]]''' '''OOU rhyme'''

41#Main.RockStarParking: ''WesternAnimation/KimPossible'': Averted in "The Big Job" -- while pulling a heist/stopping a heist, Shego, Senor Senior Jr., Kim, and Ron all experience extreme difficulty finding a parking space in San Francisco. Shego eventually writes the heist off as more trouble than it's worth due to a mix of Kim's intervention and their parking woes. {{Truth in Television}} to be sure. Public parking will cost you '''[[{{SublimeRhyme}} $35 a day in the city by the Bay]]''' and any cheaper street parking only works '''IF''' you are lucky enough to find an available spot. '''OOU rhyme'''
42#Main.TreasureIsBiggerInFiction: Creator/{{Disney}}: ''WesternAnimation/SnowWhiteAndTheSevenDwarfs'' introduced the Dwarfs by showing their mining operation, in which they dug out pre-cut gems averaging '''[[SublimeRhyme the size of Dopey's eyes]]'''. '''OOU rhyme'''

45#PlayingWith.HeroicComedicSociopath: '''Straight''': '''[[SublimeRhyme Alice McMalice]]''' is a member of Team Good and is aiding the heroes in defeating the BigBad. At the same time, she gleefully continues to be an evil jerk both towards the heroes' enemies, the heroes' allies and the heroes themselves, and the story treats it as funny. '''OOU rhyme'''
46#PlayingWith.SuddenDownerEnding: '''Exaggerated''': Darcy's death causes a chain reaction in which Charlotte is DrivenToSuicide, and she jumps off the [[IDontLikeTheSoundOfThatPlace Blood-Face Cliff]] which awakens the evil spirit of [[EldritchAbomination Dth'gtha]] which rains lightning down from the clouds and causes the entire world to '''[[SublimeRhyme flood blood.]]''' '''OOU rhyme'''
47#Recap.BuffyTheVampireSlayerS7E1Lessons: EasilyForgiven: After murdering Warren and Rack, trying to kill her friends, and attempting to bring about TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt, Giles has taken Willow to the '''[[SublimeRhyme coven in Devon]]'''. '''OOU rhyme'''
48#Recap.DoctorWhoS31E13TheBigBang: The Doctor's stuck in the Pandorica, Amy might be dead, and Rory's a Roman with a gun inside his hand — the very gun that may have killed her. Seems like things aren't going as planned. River's trapped in the TARDIS. Which is on fire. She's feeling the heat on repeat. She'll require someone she can trust, someone with a bowtie, but he's been locked up and left to '''[[SublimeRhyme die]]'''. '''OOU rhyme'''
49#Recap.DoctorWhoS32E7AGoodManGoesToWar: NinjaPirateZombieRobot: Crime-fighting [[SerialKillerKiller serial-killer-hunting]] [[KatanasAreJustBetter katana-wielding]] [[UsefulNotes/VictorianBritain Victorian]] [[InterspeciesRomance interspecies]] [[LesYay lesbians]]. '''OOU rhyme'''

51#Trivia.TheHitchhiker: CastingGag: Harry Hamlin as '''[[SublimeRhyme Jerry Macklin]]'''. ("The Curse") '''OOU rhyme'''
52#TropersDoIt.WithCelebrities: Creator/DrSeuss won't do it [[Literature/GreenEggsAndHam here or there]]; Dr. Seuss won't do it '''[[SublimeRhyme anywhere]]'''. '''OOU rhyme'''
53#TropesThatWillNeverHappen.TooObscureOrBizarre: [[MarySue Cthulhu Sue]]: [[PretentiousPronunciation Pronounced]] '''[[SublimeRhyme Clu-loo Sue]]''', this Trope takes the worst aspects of MarySue and increases it to such a level that it becomes a [[LiteralMetaphor metaphoric]] [[EldritchAbomination cosmic horror]] in its own right. '''OOU rhyme'''
54#VideoGame.LuigisMansionDarkMoon: '''[[SublimeRhyme Boo to you, two.]]''' '''OOU rhyme'''
55#VideoGame.MarioAndLuigiDreamTeam: '''[[SublimeRhyme Together in dreams, now in 3D.]]''' '''OOU rhyme'''
56#VideoGame.MetalGearOnline: DifficultButAwesome: Attempting CQC is a much more arduous task than simply shooting the opposition in the face. However, one throw is a free stun, and if no one else is nearby, you can Fulton the target for lots of points, and in ''Bounty Hunter'', extra Life Tickets. On the other hand, you could also '''[[SublimeRhyme pop lead in their head]]''' for a free kill. '''OOU rhyme'''
57#VideoGame.NeoQuest: FirstEpisodeTwist: [=[[spoiler:=] The '''[[SublimeRhyme revelation of the computer simulation]]''' is treated as a complete surprise at the end of the first chapter. But if you've played Neo for a long time, you're likely to know it's coming]]. '''OOU rhyme'''

60#WMG.CivilizationBeyondEarth: The full name for the ARC is the '''[[SublimeRhyme American Nation Reclamation Corporation]]'''. '''OOU rhyme'''
61#WMG.HomestarRunner: Normally, the {{Halloween Episode}}s don't have much of an effect on the series' LooseCanon; if they did, Homestar would still be stuck in the Horrible Painting after Jibblies 2. Unfortunately, whatever the Brothers Chaps put in for that cartoon they forgot to do for the 2009 episode. That's right. ''Strong Sad [[RocksFallEveryoneDies actually doomed everyone]].'' The Cheat is eaten, Homestar was transformed into a macrame hanging on a [[TheSeventies seventies]] basement wall and into Coach Z [[UsefulNotes/SchrodingersCat at the same time]], the King of Town '''[[SublimeRhyme has drowned]]''', both Pom Pom and the Poopsmith are dead, etc. '''OOU rhyme'''

187#Recap.BuffyTheVampireSlayerS5E8Shadow: The advertisement describes the Magic Box as ""Your one-stop spot to shop for all your occult needs." Which as Tara points out, is a mouthful to say.
188#Recap.FarscapeS03E07ThanksForSharing: TheTriple: Green-Crichton completes his self-interrogation via the strannat with a SublimeRhyme. "Cross my heart, smack me dead, stick a lobster on my head!"

190-->'''Gerit:''' I don’t need the Reel to tell me how I feel.

200-->'''Homer''': Oh, I don't care about these '''[[SublimeRhyme church-jerks]]'''!
201#Recap.WhatWeDoInTheShadowsS2E3BrainScramblies: NotUsingTheZWord: Claude's slideshow gives a list of insulting terms his hunters prefer to call vampires by -- "Mosquitoes" (hence the name of their front organization), "Suckers", "Biters", "The '''[[SublimeRhyme Fang Gang]]'''", and...

206#Series.{{Grimm}}: "Don't let your womb be your tomb." '''LCE'''
207#Series.LastWeekTonightWithJohnOliver: SoOkayItsAverage: Invoked, as this is John's opinion of the Scrub Jay's sound in the Stand Your Ground laws segment.

'''[...]''' If that bird is anyone, it's Music/{{Fergie}}. You heard me, the scrub Jay is Fergie. [[HashtagForLaughs Tweet it]], '''[[SublimeRhyme Tok it, put it in your pocket]]''', I've made a flimsy take and I'm proud of it.
209#Series.LateNightWithConanOBrien: One segment made fun of Jesse Jackson's "cut Obama's nuts off" remark, with the gimmick that Conan has just uncovered even more exclusive footage of Jackson speaking about cutting off Obama's testicles (with a dubbed-in voice, of course). They all rhymed:
210---> '''Jesse Jackson:''' I'm gonna take some cutting tools to his family jewels. / I want him to say "ouch!" when I deflate his pouch. / I'll show no restraint to that which hangs above his taint. / It's twice as zesty when I remove the testes. / I have no preference for his vas deferens. / Here's one I’m still working on: When I see Obama, it's a drag... something-something to his pastry bag.

217#Series.TheSecretsOfIsis: {{Invocation}}: Many of Isis's powers came from a magic spells cast as a '''[[SublimeRhyme rhyming couplet]]'''. Her most common spell was for flying. '''PropheciesRhymeAllTheTime'''
218-->'''Isis:''' Oh Zephyr Winds which blow on high, lift me now so I can fly!
219#Series.TheWestWing:
220-->'''Bruno:''' "That's the brunette named Annette."
221-->'''CJ:''' ''[grins]'' "Wouldn't you just give anything if she was from Tibet?"
222#Series.Whodunnit2013: Most of the Killer's clues are rhymes. The finale is stuffed to the gills with them.
223#Series.Wipeout2008: "Enter on green, exit on red. Don't let the sweeper arms go over your head." (Overdrive)
224#Series.Wipeout2008: Another overdrive one is "Enter on red, exit on green, don't let the sweeper bar nail you in-between".
225#Series.Wipeout2008: "If you hesitate, we motivate." (Motivator)
226#SubvertedRhymeEveryOccasion.{{Webcomics}}: ''Webcomic/SaturdayMorningBreakfastCereal'': And of course there's [[http://www.smbc-comics.com/index.php?db=comics&id=547#comic strip 547]], which provides examples of both SublimeRhyme of "There once was a man from Nantucket" (if only in a forced way) and this Koan-like gem, [[BadNewsInAGoodWay under the pretense that rhymes can take the edge off bad news:]] '''{{Limerick}}'''
227--->''There once was a man from...schmonnerhea\
228[[BlackComedy You have AIDS]]. Ucket.''
229#Theatre.CharlieAndTheChocolateFactory: FurAndLoathing: While originally Veruca's fur coat was PrettyInMink to emphasize that's she's a SpoiledBrat, here when Mr. Wonka asks if her coat is mink, her father says the coat is made from clubbed baby seals that were "'''[[SublimeRhyme tickled pink]]'''".
230#UsefulNotes.RussianProverbsAndExpressions: OlderThanTheyThink: ''[[PretentiousLatinMotto Repetitio est mater studiorum]]''. The Russian version just added the SublimeRhyme (the unstressed "ye" and "ya" are almost indistinguishable in standard Russian).
231#VideoGame.AbomiNation: AlliterativeName: Food items that aren't SublimeRhyme tend to be this: Ample Apple, Reset Radish, and Durable Durian. '''RhymingNames'''
232#VideoGame.AbomiNation: Food items that aren't {{Alliterative Name}}s tend to be this: Mana Banana, Brute's Grapefruit, and of course, the Sublime Lime. Loco Coconut and Caring Pear are rhymes on the first syllable rather than the last. '''RhymingNames'''
233#VideoGame.AzureStrikerGunvolt2: PainfulRhyme: Copen considers Ghauri's SublimeRhyme method of "speech" completely intolerable. '''RhymesOnADime'''

235#VideoGame.Borderlands1: RevolversAreJustBetter: It's hard not to like a Revolver with the name ''Bloody Justice'' (Unless it does shitty damage or has a ludicrously low ammo count.) or '''[[SublimeRhyme Raw Law]]'''. '''RhymingNames'''
236#VideoGame.CosmicBreak: UnusualWeaponMounting: Kingyo-chan is probably the best example, mounting a weapon on his ''head'' simply because he has nowhere else to put it (he's a fish that's about 70% head/body, the rest is composed of '''[[SublimeRhyme wafer-thin fins]]'''). '''OOU rhyme'''
237#VideoGame.DonkeyKongCountry: AlliterativeName: Almost all the levels in the ''VideoGame/DonkeyKongCountry'' series use either this trope or SublimeRhyme for the level names ("Hot-head Hop", "Gusty Glades," etc) Most of the rest rely on {{pun}}s; see ViewersAreGeniuses below. Every level in ''Donkey Kong 64'' except DK Isles has an alliterative name.
238#VideoGame.FinalFantasyX2: TeleportingKeycardSquad: Lampshaded in-universe. "Find the sphere and '''[[SublimeRhyme the fiends appear]]'''" is a credo among sphere hunters.
239#VideoGame.FurFighters: Each and every one of Tweek's Babies has a name that rhymes with the aforementioned character. '''RhymeThemeNaming'''
240#VideoGame.GoldenSun1: {{Egopolis}}: The city of Lunpa, named after its founder. Also combined with SublimeRhyme for some cases, a number of location names sound similar with their leaders'-either due to coincidence, translator's choice, or plain laziness in the original names. '''RhymingNames'''
241#VideoGame.TheFairlyOddParentsShadowShowdown: In "Get a Clue", calling your fairies in a room with a giant magic loom will start a short RunningGag in which Cosmo tries to name all the words he can think of that rhyme with "loom".
242#VideoGame.YouDontKnowJack: The Gibberish Questions. It is a matter of opinion how sublime they actually are, which makes them all the more challenging without hints.
243#VideoGame.YouDontKnowJack: Question 10n in episode 23 of ''2011'' has words that rhyme with "Gellin", in keeping with the clever Dr. Scholls commercials.
244#WebVideo.{{Aventures}}: BadassCreed: Théo's Inquisitor creed during the season 1 finale.
245-->'''Théo:''' '''[[SublimeRhyme From the Darkness comes the Light.\
246United, we don't know fright.\
247Wherever you hide, shiver,\
248Here comes the Inquisitor.]]'''
249#WebVideo.VideoGamesAwesome: Their Creator/DrSeuss build in ''VideoGame/{{Minecraft}}'' has the gang saying a lot of Dr. Seuss like rhymes, mostly from Fraser, [[PainfulRhyme with mixed results]]
250-->'''Fraser''': What is this? My ''Minecraft'' just crashed.\
251{{Beat}}\
252What the frig rhymes with crashed?!
253#WesternAnimation.BillyDilleysSuperDuperSubterraneanSummer: Billy Dilley, of course. '''RhymingNames'''
254#WesternAnimation.{{Duckman}}: In "A Room With a Bellevue":
255--> '''Nurse''': ''(sing-songy)'' Uh-uh-uh, there'll be no sodomy, or you'll get a lobotomy!
256#WesternAnimation.PrincessGwenevereAndTheJewelRiders: DragonRider: Kale uses a big red dragon named [[Creator/TheBrothersGrimm Grimm]] for transportation. In a quite unusual way, however, as it carries her in a "'''[[SublimeRhyme dragon wagon]]'''" that she's sitting in. Grimm comes with a BreathWeapon but uses it very sparsely (and only on command).
257#WesternAnimation.SheZow: WeaksauceWeakness: '''[[SublimeRhyme If the costume's color is changed from pink, her powers will go on the blink.]]''' ([[NotMakingThisUpDisclaimer yes that was the actual line]]).
258#WhoseLine.TropesSToZ: A couple "Scenes From a Hat" and "Hats" playings returned Creator/DrSeuss parodies:
259-->'''Colin:''' (suggestion: "Dr. Seuss pick-up lines") Could you do it with a friend?/Could you do it end-to-end?/Could you do it on a boat?/Could you do it with my goat?/Could you do it in a tree?/Could you do it while I see?/Hee-hee-hee, hee-hee-hee-hee.\
260'''Colin:''' (wearing ''Literature/TheCatInTheHat'' hat) I will have you on a boat, I will have you with a goat. On a boat, with a goat, I don't care!
261#Woolseyism.AnimeAndManga: In ''Manga/SoulEater'', to communicate with [[{{Shinigami}} Lord Death]], you fog up a window or mirror and write on it with your finger "42-42-564", pronounced in Japanese "shi-ni-shi-ni-go-ro-shi", which is a homophone for something like "[[FourIsDeath Die, Die, Kill!]]". [[LostInTranslation Obviously, this doesn't translate into English]]. The Creator/{{FUNimation}} dub replaced this with the '''[[SublimeRhyme catchy little rhyme]]''' "Call forty-two, forty-two, five-sixty-four, whenever you want to knock on Death's door." This works out nicely, because Lord Death runs a ExtranormalInstitute and took on a BunnyEarsLawyer, CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass alter ego to avoid scaring off any potential pupils.
262#Wrestling.{{GLOW}}: All the time.
263--> "Tina Ferrari, the capitalist dream. She won't look so good face down in the ring! She's thinks she so tough and so strong! I will destroy her, it won't take long."
264#YMMV.{{Arrow}}: MemeticMutation: It became common to joke about or just point out the name of a writer and co-executive producer of several later episodes: '''[[SublimeRhyme Speed Weed]]'''. '''RhymingNames, OOU'''
265#YMMV.BananasInPyjamas: AdaptationDisplacement: Or that there was even a series of picture books published in TheEighties that not only featured ''many'' Bananas and the Teddies, but '''[[SublimeRhyme Beans in Jeans, Zucchinis in Bikinis]]''' and other such creatures. '''RhymingTitle'''
