I don't think that sounds like a stock phrase.
Currently mostly inactive. An incremental game I tested: https://galaxy.click/play/176 (Gods Of Incremental)

Keet cleanup
I haven't even heard "faint in shock" exclaimed as a line of dialogue before. Stock Phrases are meant to be dialogue, not just any phrase that sometimes shows up in dialogue. If it included the latter, that would eliminate a lot of legitimately-named tropes.
I do some cleanup and then I enjoy shows you probably think are cringe.
I think that my TLP
is just about ready for launch, but I realized that I've heard the current title about a million times.
Would Faint in Shock run afoul of the No New Stock Phrases rule, or is it just a sequence of words that show up on a semi-regular basis because they're Exactly What It Says on the Tin?
