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.

Also tropes like that are used a lot outside of the wiki, but people still want to define it. Unlike say, Suspiciously Similar Substitute, which isn't really used.

Troper Tales seems to be a wiki-wide Old Shame.

Do not spare the feelings of those who would not spare yours.

Some tropers use their own Contributors page as a Troper Tales.

The ijbm subforum cut is a forum-wide Old Shame.

The way it was cut though, is a constant source of amusement for those who watched it.

Majora's Mask countdowns. Lots of 'em. Funny thing though, it took a few hours for IJBM to die on the day it was supposed to. (January 7, 2011, I think)I remember the Jammies thread from there. I wonder where it went?

I'd say it met a bit of a serious fate.

The forum section of Radio is quite...lonesome, to put it mildly.
