Complaining (Alt names crowner 3 August 2020): Lull Destruction

eh, it's fine. here's a link to the crowner.

Crowner switched per request.

Bumping

Bumping for crowner votes

So, shall we call the crowner?

I guess. I still think my idea was way better.

With 11 votes ... Can it be made a redirect for examples that are hard to rephrase?

That's a good idea.

And don't forget the rewritten description at Sandbox.Lull Destruction

Move done. Quote, first line of description, and "Do not confuse" did not survive.

Edit: Sandbox's contents are implemented, so the sandbox is cut.

Only 219 to deal with, plus we have a video example...

I really haven't been properly exposed to works with lull-filling. The original trope + title were written so negatively that they go on pages like

Does Silence Filling apply to In-Universe characters who are uncomfortable with silence and make noise to fill it?

We could probably expand it. I would probably suggest making this a supertrope for different things used to fill silence, such as Mickey Mousing, Dialog During Gameplay, etc.

I think that would be far too broad. Any sound can be said to fill silence.

And I found this trope has a gushing counterpart called Silence Is Golden.

I'll add that to the Tropes Needing TRS sandbox.

Should we create a cleanup thread for this?

I don't believe that's necessary since there aren't a lot of wicks and I've been removing the wicks that come off as complain-y.

I cleaned up the rest of the wicks in main.

Thanks!

Down to 143. Video example was handled; hopefully the uploader is aware and reuploads to the new name. I did link the trope's new name as the rejection reason, and filed as "other".

Looks like we got less than 100 left, so I'll tackle them all today so the thread can be put to rest.

Okay, all wicks are finally done save for a sandbox page that we can leave as is. Will cut and close.
