Okay, we've got enough consensus for the change on Professor Guinea Pig, so the new pic's in and tagged; caption?

"Professor? Oh, no, not again..."

Here's the Negima panel; anyone feel like trying to write in the English text in a font that looks halfway realistic?

[up]For a caption, maybe "On the plus side, the fourth vial did cure his... er, her alopecia."

I was going to close this for the clock being up and there not being any consensus, but I went through the webcomic examples and came up with this. Reclocked to give time for discussion.

[up]I guess that works if we can't get permission for the Hanna image or find the Negima one in better quality.

[up] Current is non-illustrative.

29 works. [tup]

The current is not a straight example of the trope, but a Lampshade Hanging on it. That's good enough illustration for me, and much better than something that could just as well be a page quote.

The clock's up. Consensus is a little light for 29, but we haven't apparently received permission for the Hanna image, a better version of the Negima pic hasn't been found, and the current, while amusing, isn't the trope. I've put in 29, but if/when we ever get permission for the Hanna pic, it will be swapped in.
