Playing With / Bar Full of Aliens

Go To

Basic Trope: A bar that is full of non-human characters.

  • Straight: A bar is filled with multiple Funny Animals.
  • Exaggerated: The bar also has aliens, vampires, werewolves, monsters, and everything in-between... except for humans.
  • Downplayed:
  • Justified:
    • Humans are banned from entering the bar.
    • The refreshments served at the bar are something that humans can't ingest, or wouldn't be interested in ingesting (such as pet food, raw meat, or liquid nitrogen).
    • It's just a bar intended for non-humans.
    • There are no humans in the work anyway, so what would they be doing in this bar?
  • Inverted: The bar only has humans, even though the work takes place in a world of non-humans.
  • Subverted: It's revealed that the "animals" in the bar are actually just wearing animal costumes.
  • Double Subverted: But under the costumes, they are aliens.
  • Parodied: ???
  • Zig-Zagged:
  • Averted: There are no bars with non-human characters.
  • Enforced:
    • To establish early on that this work takes place in a world of non-human characters.
    • To give the characters a place to go.
  • Lampshaded: "Wonder where all of the people are?"
  • Invoked: The bar has a rule banning humans.
  • Exploited: ???
  • Defied: Multiple humans are invited in.
  • Discussed: ???
  • Conversed: ???

Back to Bar Full of Aliens. Oh yeah, and can you get me another glass of liquid nitrogen while you're over there? Thanks.
