Prankster Parent got unlaunched, but still has a video: “Rebecca’s Mom”. What do we do about it?

EDIT: The trope draft got renamed, so definitely cut.

On "The Brain's Moral Compass" on Morality Pet, please add Smoking Is Not Cool and Very Special Episode as subtropes, as the clip has Brain realize and tell the audience (in and out of universe) that smoking should not be glamorized.

I do some cleanup and then I enjoy shows you probably think are cringe.

On the Love Confession video "Saying Things Never Said", can a full stop be added to the end of the video description, please?

Also, I think the link to the secondary trope Big Damn Kiss is slightly wrong as it's not showing up on The Big Damn Kiss page. Can that be corrected to The Big Damn Kiss? The video content is of two characters finally admitting they're in love and ending their confession by kissing.

If my post doesn't mention a giant flying sperm whale with oversized teeth and lionfish fins for flippers, it just isn't worth reading.

The new video "Black Widow" under Help, I'm Stuck! is attributed to Black Widow (2021), but it's from The Avengers (2012). Also, the description has a set of cruft characters instead of an apostrophe, likely due to a cut and paste.

Done and done but I don't see the cruft characters in description on the "Black Widow" video.

The Cinderella clip on VideoExamples.Gorgeous Garment Generation has a character sheet listed as a media source.

On the The Legend of Vox Machina ("Into the Belly of the Beast") example on Ass Shove can we add the secondary tropes Orifice Invasion and maybe Eat Me too? Admittedly it might be more of a subversion of Eat Me than an exact example so not sure if it would count?

On the "Flor forgot to dress" of Modesty Towel, please add the trope Innocent Fanservice Girl as Flor doesn't realize that she's only covered in a towel until the Farmer points it out to her. Thanks.

Video "Gangsta's to Amish Paradise" on Song Parody has Running with Scissors as media source when Amish Paradise was actually on the album Bad Hair Day

The recent addition of "Moebius D/Blackblaze Dirk" to Complete Monster could have One-Woman Wail added too.

The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1987) video under George Jetson Job Security, "Throw the Bum Out" should have the following secondary tropes:

  • Easily Condemned because Yoshi's superiors immediately turned against him despite his noble and honorable reputation.
  • Frame-Up because Yoshi was banished due to Saki setting him up.
  • Not What It Looks Like because Yoshi's masters believed he was showing signs of disrespect followed by an attempt to assassinate their leader.

Also, I just realized that SpongeBob SquarePants example "Snail-Po" under Distant Reaction Shot should have Eating Pet Food due to SpongeBob tasting Gary's food.

Doing these, but skipping ~Gracie Lizzy 's requests. Please see the pinned post: you'll need to explain how those tropes show up in the video.

4 out of 5 of the videos on VideoExamples.Metal Gear are linked to the nonexistent Franchise/ page (which was cut for not having enough media types).

Please change the sources from Franchise.Metal Gear to VideoGame.Metal Gear for the following videos:

Okie Dokie:

  • The example from The Legend of Vox Machina on Ass Shove ("Into the Belly Of The Beast") is also an example or Orifice Invasion as it shows Scanlan and Vax invading the dragon Umbrasyl through an orifice (the anus) with the intent of killing him from the inside. This is where I am not sure if it fits Eat Me as the clip doesn't show them discussing the option of trying to get Umbrasyl to eat them to do the same thing but Scanlan proposing using the anus instead to evade the dragon's acid breath.

  • "Moebius D/Blackblaze Dirk" fits One-Woman Wail as the track playing throughout the video fits the description of that trope "A solitary, usually wordless wail (possibly to simulate wind or grieving), usually done by either a woman or, for extra poignancy points, a child (usually a boy soprano). The best time to include this trope is during the aftermath of something really dramatic — a battle, natural disaster, etc." - as it is a woman wordlessly mournfully signing over a character reminiscing about murdering a bunch of people including his horrified comrades.

The example on Skinny Dipping from The Parent Trap (1998) (the clip is just called "The Parent Trap") also fits the trope Gone Swimming, Clothes Stolen as whilst Annie is skinny dipping in the lake (due to losing at Poker) the other kids steal her clothes.

For the video "You can't even say it can you?" for Meaningful Look, can you add Eye Contact as Proof as a secondary trope? Camila is demanding Billy look at her and tell her he doesn't love Daisy, his lead singer. Camila doesn't explicitly tell him to look her in the eyes, but it's a good example of the trope's meaning (in my opinion).
