Since it is an objective trope used as a method of doing an event.

Well, here I was thinking this was a Stock Phrase or something.

Ah I get it, so it's more of the audience's reaction rather than the performance of the trope itself?

This is purely audience reaction, although it can be teased by the creator - my personal favorite example of this is in The Adventures of Dr. McNinja, where the author loves to throw in snarky Alt Text notes along the lines of, "And then Doc dies. The end," knowing full well that his audience won't buy it.

"It's Occam's Shuriken! If the answer is elusive, never rule out ninjas!"

Ah okay then. I thought it was just for the event itself, that's why I was wondering why it was YMMV. XD

Well, time to call someone to lock this.
