YIAY

Go To

Inspired by Jacksfilms’s Yesterday I Asked You series, or YIAY for short. I’m going to ask a Jacksfilms-style question, and other posters must give humorous answers. Tomorrow, I will repeat the question and give my favorite answers. I will then let another poster ask a new question, and the cycle repeats (at least) every day.

Example of a YIAY video.

If the original poster isn’t available to give their favorite answers, another poster is free to step in and give theirs (barring their own).

I have a question for you. Describe TV Tropes in just 4 words.

I can't. That'll end my Undertale's No Mercy run.

Protection and power are overrated. I think you are very wise to choose happiness and love. Current avatar: Connie

There's no way I can knock over the last bowling pin with a dime. It's not heavy enough.

Yes, but unfortunately I have to pull the lever to do so, diverting the trolley and causing it to run over a potted fern. I've decided that a potted fern is more valuable than a dime, so I will not be diverting the trolley in this case. I will not spare the dime.

Apologies for getting sidetracked; I had a really hard time managing between Real Life and Trope Life.

Anyway, a while back, I asked you: "Could you spare a dime?", and here are your real best repsonses.
