It seems to be describing a different trope.
i'm at the combination she and it
the quote on What's a Henway? is way too long. if nobody has better ideas, it could at least be trimmed to the first punchline
Angry babby
Yeah, maybe cut to the "ligma" part, maybe even start earlier at the "what's nut season" bit.

I do some cleanup and then I enjoy shows you probably think are cringe.
i'm at the combination she and it
yeah, that's what i was thinking too. went and did that
Found this quote in Quotes.Overshadowed By Controversy. Is this quote just complaining?
I actually think everything before the last sentence is valid.
I would say slice and dice.
"Listen up, Marina, because this is SUPER important. Whatever you do, don't eat th“ “DON'T EAT WHAT?! Your text box ran out of space!”
I'm helping!
Delete the "incompetent boobs" sentence, leave the rest.
Trouble Cube continues to be a general-purpose forum for those who desire such a thing.

Yeah cut the last sentence. Keep the rest.
Very Spooky
Yeah, just cut the last sentence.
back lol
Are you guys sure? This seems pretty complainy regardless.

OBC is all about when a piece of media or creator is more known for the controversies surrounding them than their actual quality or accomplishments. I myself have heard far more of Konami's failings as a business than their actual products.
Also the last sentence is complaining, but the rest of it lists actual controversies and points out how they overshadowed the game itself. And that is demonstrative of OBC.
Life Imitates Art's quote seems to be about art imitating life (science fiction authors inspired by real discoveries), not the other way around.
The Unknown
The quote for Evil Learns of Outside Context is a massive spoiler for Final Fantasy XIV.
If a tree falls in the forest and nobody remembers it, who else will you have ice cream with?
I fight for a "Jest" cause
I would suggest pulling it, the only advice I can give is the new quote would have to find the balance between being relevant and not being a massive game-changing spoiler.
Suggestion here for Tornado Move.
Is the quote on Harsh Vocals actually from anything?
—signature not found—
Unlikely.
"Listen up, Marina, because this is SUPER important. Whatever you do, don't eat th“ “DON'T EAT WHAT?! Your text box ran out of space!”

x3 I pulled it down.
The quote on No One Gets Left Behind interprets the trope name 100% literally. The trope is about two characters escaping from something, one falling or getting hurt, and the other coming back to help them.
Maybe this from the quotes page?
I support that change.

I fight for a "Jest" cause
As do I, switch it and put the current on the quotes page.

The Rosers were red. The Drownies are blue. I know What the Thunder Said. Do you?
Kafka Comedy's quote is nothing but "no good deed goes unpunished", which is actually the name of a diferent trope. Not to mention, it doesn't really convey that this is a comedic trope.
Possible alternative from the subpage (which I think is the only half-decent one):
The page quote for Growing the Beard was added by frequent ban-evader Johnnyfog, is there anything from the quotes page that looks like a good substitute?

The David Bowie quote looks good to me.
