Hugging a Vanillite will give you frostbite.Badass wick related cleanup:
On Double Standard, please remove curly braces from all "Badass" wicks on the page.
You've got roaming bands of armed, aggressive, tyrannical plumbers coming to your door, saying "Use our service, or else!"Edit to Hollywood Tactics:
Some form of "will never be used by a Badass Army" (which alludes to such an approach on its own page).
The That One Boss/Pokemon for Cyrus sounds something awfully like from an FPS game than anything. So I decided to rewrite it. And here it is:
- Cyrus's battle in Spear Pillarnote / Distortion World note . Despite not being his trump card, his Gyarados is pretty dreaded. Aqua Tail/ Waterfall is boosted by its STAB, so it definitely will do a ton of damage to most Pokemon. His Gyarados also happens to have Earthquake, so bringing Electric-type and Steel-type Pokemon against it is quite risky. And while Ice Fang is pretty weak, it does provide good coverage to his Gyarados. His other Pokemon isn't any better, either. Crobat is pretty fast and it has specific moves to annoy your Pokemon. Air Slash will deal damage and it will often make your Pokemon flinch. Confuse Ray so your Pokemon will be confused, and Toxic to badly Poison your Pokemon. His Hounchkrow actually isn't too outstanding in DP, but it is dangerous in Platinum as it now has Heat Wave and Psychic. And his trump card, Weavile is pretty fast and actually has a high Attack stat, packing dangerous moves such as Ice Punch and Night Slash, as well as Brick Break in DP or Fake Out in Platinum. Oh, he now has a Houndoom in Platinum. It has good coverage just like most of his Pokemon does, as well as having Will-O-Wisp to burn your Pokemon. Cyrus's team is quite the thing for that point in the game. And if you blacked out, you have to climb all the way back to Mt. Coronet and through the Distortion Word.
Okay, that's a bit too long.

Please recreate and cutlist the following ghost wicks:
You've got roaming bands of armed, aggressive, tyrannical plumbers coming to your door, saying "Use our service, or else!"Please move the content of Sandbox.Rape Is A Special Kind Of Evil to Rape Is a Special Kind of Evil.
As you can check, no real content change, just alphabetization, better sorting of the examples, namespaces and wicks corrections when needed, and standardization.
Everything's Worse with Snowclones: For Badass, please change '"cool", "fighter"' into '"cool", "manly", "fighter"' in the list of possible meanings.
You've got roaming bands of armed, aggressive, tyrannical plumbers coming to your door, saying "Use our service, or else!"Anatomically Impossible Sex: Please change this:
- A virgin always bleeds: A very common and very old myth in real life, and thus it's no surprise that it turns up in many works of fiction as well.
by adding this:
- A virgin always bleeds: A very common and very old myth in real life, and thus it's no surprise that it turns up in many works of fiction as well. This perception is so prevalent that faking it is a trope in its own right.
On the same page as above, please pothole "The Elusive Orgasm" to Anorgasmia.

Alleged Number1KirbyFan
Fetish-Fuel Future has Linking to an Article Within the Article, which should be replaced with plain text.
Anatomically Impossible Sex: In the last bullet on the page, please also pothole "turned literal" to Screw Yourself.
You've got roaming bands of armed, aggressive, tyrannical plumbers coming to your door, saying "Use our service, or else!"Fifty Shades of Grey has this at the end of the description:
Speed read 14 naughtiest bits? I understand "no prudishness", but if anyone wants to read what happens in the book they are free to buy it or do a simple google search. I don't see any need to directly link the content on the work page. I think the link can be killed and it would have no impact whatsoever on the work page.
Also, according to another troper the first link in the description (to the fanfic) is dead and should be cut. I can not confirm that at this time as I will not be clicking on any 50 shades external links from a work computer.
