There's No New Stock Phrases, but just "Stock" tropes don't seem to be disallowed.

Probably tropes/indexes that have "Stock" in the name, like Stock Parodies or Stock Aesops.

So...Infinite Stock For Sale will be the only one trope about stock?

Pichu-kun, I think you mean Stock Phrases, not Stock tropes.

^ I likely got the "no new stock phrases" rule mixed up so that it was "no new stock tropes, period".

The rules do not allow trope names that are lines of dialogue. That's all we have, however.
