So, as a counterpoint to the other thread, this is where we talk about entries that we find incredibly amusing and intelligent. To start us out, I present the entirety of Real Life, which had me cracking up when I first read it.

The Stinger at the end of the Tell Me Why page. It may be an obvious joke, but I still think it's pretty dang funny.

I clicked that expecting the joke to be something along the lines of "No." as an answer to the question in the title.

From Nu, Pogodi! page (now deleted but found it in history):

jamespolk May 28th 2018 at 2:55:53 AM

Changed line(s) 15,16 (click to see context) from

  • Alla Pugacheva: As an Anthropomorphic Animal (a fox). Hare and Wolf run into her dressing room and then both end up singing her song, Iceberg.
    • Also in episode 14: Million Scarlet Roses plays in the background when Wolf visits Zayats. The fact that he came over wearing fancy clothing while bringing him cider and red flowers just boosts the Ho Yay Up To Eleven.

Reason: People are not tropes

From the characters page:

Zayats (Заяц), or The Hare — Ambiguously Gay: Despite being explicitly stated to be male by Word of God, he has thick eyelashes, pink cheeks, and engages in things that would be considered "girly". He was also voiced by a woman.

From Smeshariki page:

Spiritual Successor: While the two shows are probably unrelated (Smeshariki is older), the vivid artistic style with colourful outlines and fluid Flash animations, the combination of a Sugar Bowl setting and adult themes and the large Periphery Demographic make Smeshariki somewhat similar to My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic but with a Russian flair. Hell, even the characters are similar (there's a vaguely southern orange farmer with a large hat, a cyan sportsman and a purple and magenta intellectual).

From Nightmare Fuel / Touhou (also got deleted):

There's actually a bit of Fridge Horror regarding Remilia and Flandre Scarlet. If you read through Remilia's profile, it states that Remilia can't create more vampires because she doesn't have the appetite to drain all of a person's blood, confirming that (at least in this canon) vampires need to feed on a victim to turn them. Combine this with the fact that Remilia is stated to appear as a child, and Flandre is a whole five years younger than her. Some vampire out there nommed on two little girls who were probably somewhere around 5-10 years old!

The very existance of page You Have to Have Jews. Who said that TV Tropes is "woke"? In fact, it's "based", "redpilled", "problematic" and [more dumb buzzwords]!

MegaCorp used to have a real life section that was gold.

The caption on the Pokemon video example for Amazingly Embarrassing Parent.

At least she's [Lusamine] not the cold and controlling mother as she was portrayed in the original games.

Do entries outside of TV Tropes count?

This (now deleted) hoax draft on Wikipedia:

    Psychic Transmitters 
7:49 PM 9/21/2020

Psychic Transmitters are ordinary People with the mental ability to read the thoughts of other People. Psychic Transmitters have reached the realm above self-actualization as stated by Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs. The realm above self-actualization has Divine Wisdom and Knowledge, Divine Judgment and Perfect Timing. One can reach the realm above self-actualization through prayer and meditation. The brain waves involved are "Quantum Waves". The "Quantum Waves" are the epitome of Human Development and Human Evolution. One must ascend the ladder of brain waves stating with Delta, Theta, Alpha, Beta, Lambda then Quantum to reach this epitome of Human Development and Human Evolution. The path to Quantum Waves is attained in the same manner as the Ascended Masters of Christianity and other Eastern Religions. One should have Faith. One should have Peace, Love, Hope and the Belief in the Benevolence of God.

Everyone is a Psychic Receptor. With this in mind, one can develop their own individual psychic ability to attain the status of a Psychic Transmitter.

One should live a clean and healthy life style to cleanse the "Mind's Eye", the Pineal Gland. One should open the Critical Mind to the Subconscious Mind to allow their Instinct to play a vital role in their Thinking Ability.

The byline for Laconic.Feghoot amuses me. It must've taken a while to think of a good self-demonstrating pun.

The page image for Mr. Exposition which is my state of mind most of the time when I'm writing. I have to tone it down a lot before publishing it.

Also my favorite panel from that comic.

There was some image on a page, I forget what exactly (maybe a subtrope of Bowdlerise) that went from a gun to some kind of boxing glove on a spring. I wish I could find it again; it was funny!

My first thought was "this is about the One Piece thing", which if I'm right, means you're thinking of Macekre.

Trouble Cube continues to be a general-purpose forum for those who desire such a thing.

[up][up] Thanks XD the really funny part is the censored version still has a gun-like handle complete with trigger!

And it got fan art. It's commonly known as the hammer gun and has a memetic status in the fandom where it can beat anything, and is apparently the main reason the character holding the hammer gun is remembered at all.

Clone Jesus has a real life section containing two entries: one is a conspiracy theory about Clone Jesus and the other is discussing the logistics of cloning Jesus, since he left behind no physical body. It finishes up by concluding that if one of the three churches claiming to have Jesus' foreskin actually have his foreskin then cloning might just be possible.

In the BoJack Horseman cleanup thread, ~Synchronicity found an example that reads like the editor was trying to hammer the square peg into the round trope like a toddler tries to force the plastic square in the round shape sorter.

There's something funny about "Peace Be Upon Him" on The Prophet Muhammad being potholed as Phrase Catcher. Probably because I associate Catchphrase and its related tropes with sitcoms less than I do religious conventions of respect.

Japanese Mythology summarises how Amane-no-Uzume lured Amaterasu out of hiding in a cave:

Thus, sunlight was restored, and all thanks to a striptease.

Sorry to double post, but another case of misuse that amused me, also from the Bojack Horseman cleanup: Testosterone Poisoning used literally to describe a teenage boy going through puberty and frequently getting aroused.
