Playing With / Lame Last Words

Go To

Basic Trope: Last words upon which nobody would want to die.

  • Straight: Bob says something embarrassing before his death.
  • Exaggerated: Bob says the most embarrassing words ever as his final words.
  • Downplayed: Bob says something mildly embarrassing.
  • Justified:
  • Inverted: Final Speech
  • Subverted: Bob appears to say something embarrassing ... then continues on with his words, making it awesome.
  • Double Subverted: But then it is mitigated by something even more embarrassing.
  • Zigzagged: Bob dies and un-dies, saying something alternating between lame and awesome every time he dies.
  • Invoked: Alice tricks Bob into saying something stupid to humiliate him even after he dies.


Man, the last words written on this page before it got cut was "I love nattering".
