Actually, scratch that. He does, and goes by Jethro Q Walrustitty.

[up]x4 Ohhh, okay, so feel free to add your subjective tropes, as long as it doesn't clash with everybody else's opinions.

Yeah, no, that's bullshit, plain and simple. "Your Mileage May vary, but make sure it doesn't vary too much or we'll delete your entry?" Fuck that.

Why does this site even have YMM Vs in first place?

[up]x3 The angle you're missing here is the fact that everyone has opinions, and frequently diverging ones.

If you don't put a hard limit on what gets in or not, the whole thing quickly goes out of control and Flame Wars start popping up everywhere.

As it once did, back when Mary Sue and its variations were still allowed.

[up]x2 Because otherwise subjective tropes and opinions would have to be put in the main page...the way they used to way back.

Three guesses how that usually ended.

[up]Maybe you're pregnant.

Then don't even have the subjective tropes/opinions in the first place

Not sure why that's hard to understand. I think this wiki would be better off without it, just troping what happens inside a work

But the wiki isn't just about the tropes in a work, but also about the relationship between the audience and the work.

You might as well cut out the Awesome and Funny and Tear Jerker pages, and the wiki would be poorer for it.

I wish the Tear Jerker pages were blue. It's weird seeing Sugar Wiki in pink and Nightmare Fuel in red, but Tear Jerker doesn't have an original theme.

Come to think of it, I don't know why I have such a crush on this one new vendor girl at my workplace. She has a couple small piercings but she's not my usual crush materiel, that is goth girls.

Thinking of generic names: despite Japan naming every Brazilian character of theirs "Carlos", around where I live the most common names are "Francisco" and "Maria".

And they're always compound names.

I've been converting one of my OC to fit into the Arknights setting, but the more I go about it, the more I feel like it's a bad idea, and I can't really tell why.

To the outside world Latin America is not a diverse group of countries that happen to share a cultural background (+ Brazil), it's an amorphous blob of land where everyone's behaving suspiciously Mexican and has brown skin.

I hate those stereotypes, being a Mexican myself. All Latin American countries are severely different from one another and that's what makes it beautiful

[up][up][up] On the whole you get more responsibilites, but you also get a lot more freedom. Plus more life experience means you're a little wiser and slightly less likely to do dumb shit.
