Have a question about how the TVTropes wiki works? No one knows this community better than the people in it, so ask away! Ask the Tropers is the page you come to when you have a question burning in your brain and the support pages didn't help.
It's not for everything, though. For a list of all the resources for your questions, click here. You can also go to this Directory thread
for ongoing cleanup projects.
What I was talking about was this bit at the beginning of the article:
A show genre that is shamelessly and purely based around nostalgia. The format is simple, cheap, seldom varied, and generally goes like this: Celebrity Talking Head: Hey remember [decade appropriate fad]? They were brilliant. (Stock footage of people participating in [fad]) Different Celebrity Talking Head: God, when I was a kid [fad] was everywhere. We had the biggest one on our road. And now no one remembers [fad]. They all have [modern fad]. [Modern fad] users just have no idea what they are missing!

Is it just me, or does the main page description for the I Love the Exties trope seem kinda... snarky towards the trope itself?
