One thing I've noticed is that for all how the page for They Might Be Giants claims them to be the unofficial official band of this wiki, there's relatively few people on this site who seem to ever reference them.

Ever since I spooked myself with the Nightmare Fuel PSA pages, I've been noticing myself reading them more and more... Maybe I'm training myself to be less scared.

Guys how cool would it be if Super Megaforce had a green ranger...

Maybe the trope name can be shortened.

I've noticed that I haven't seen Kaeloo crosswicked to as much tropes as I've seen lately. Maybe someone's been cracking down on shoehorns.

It could be the result of one really powerful Entry Pimp who's been busy lately.

Since when have embedded YouTube videos been a feature of the wiki????

Recap.Crazy Ex Girlfriend has embed the songs in the show for many years. But some pages on there also demonstrate the downside of embedding videos in text — sometimes videos get taken down, and it looks bad if nobody is keeping an eye on them.

I think the uncut versions of all the videos are available on Rachel's own channel now. I'm in favor of it, if only because the vast majority of CXG recap pages have titles too long to link in video examples.

I'm noticing ongoing works tend to have people pre-writing info from episode trailers and magazines (especially days before they are published) to uncomment them later, which should violate the Content Leak's warning and No Pre-Commented Examples policy, maybe also Examples Are Not Recent.

For some reason in the past day or two I've gotten weird redirects on this site, seemingly triggered by nothing at all. Sometimes it goes to a search on Amazon or Yahoo (always fairly normal things for a person to search, but not something what I, personally, would search), and other times it redirects to some weird site name ending with .xyz, which my anti-malware program immediately blocks. I have never gotten these before yesterday, and it's only happening on this site. Does anyone know what could be causing this? Because it's getting really annoying.

I was expecting Funny.Epic Rap Battles Of History to just have a lot of lyrics removed from context, since it's a work that was more popular in the early 2010s when the site was looser, but was pleasantly surprised to see many examples worded with enough context to get the humor across if the lyric alone doesn't do it.

Since one wild card is The Starscream, does that mean a Deck of Wild Cards are Seekers?
Yes I'm aware that nobody here except for me will get this joke

Ooh, Willbyr posted here! Speaking of him, I noticed that he has a different avatar for his mod posts, which is a solider that's far more intimidating than his normal anime gal pic.

Since he's the Image Pickin' guy, I wonder if he has a special feature that let's him do that which is probably exclusive to him.

When we post in mod mode, it uses a different avatar than our normal troper mode one. Since that's been described at times as us putting on our mod hats, I chose Ciaphas Cain as my avatar.
