Going ahead and opening this one...no ideas ATM.
Pull regardless of replacement.
Patiently awaiting the release of Paper Luigi and the Marvelous Compass.Pull. I'm not sure we can find a good replacement anywhere.
The current image will most likely be used on the tentatively-named Disco Sucks. Pull from Condemned by History; no ideas for a replacement at the moment.
Keet cleanupPull.
If a tree falls in the forest and nobody remembers it, who else will you have ice cream with?Pull. I had trouble thinking of an image myself.

I'm fine with putting the previous image on the proposed Disco Sucks trope's page and leaving Condemned by History without an image for now (but I'm not voting BUPKIS since I haven't seen any arguments in favor of it), because I can't think of how to illustrate the latter.

Patiently awaiting the release of Paper Luigi and the Marvelous Compass.Would advertisements to smoke while pregnant qualify, or is that more in line with something else?
This advertisement I think is from Bioshock (it’s tagged in a lot of places as real but there’s video game shots of it). [1]◊
There’s a similar scene in the movie Hairspray with two expectant moms smoking and drinking as a sort of establishing shot of 70’s values, but I couldn’t find a good video of it to grab a still from.

That's more Values Dissonance than this.
The universe is under no obligation to make sense to us.What petersohn said. This trope isn't about stuff that used to be acceptable but isn't anymore, it's about a work or genre which used to be popular and liked by many, but later became unpopular and disliked by many.

back lolGranted, Values Dissonance is often the reason this trope happens, but not always, and Values Dissonance in itself does not automatically cause this trope.
The universe is under no obligation to make sense to us.Maybe something demonstrating a fad falling out of favor?
Hmm.... are minstrel shows obviously politically incorrect enough by themselves? Or does that still need something to show how no one does them anymore?

That they were politically controversial is news to me, but a shot of people running away from or ignoring a minstrel band might work.
Ok, maybe a shot of Milhouse from The Simpsons holding Alf pogs then? Two out of favor flavors rolled into one. (Three if you think the Simpsons are overdone) [1]
That's funny.
Current Project: Incorruptible Pure PurenessI'm okay with that.
I'd be fine with that.

A TRS thread has renamed Deader Than Disco, which leaves the image as a remnant of the old name.
Any replacement ideas?
