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

Are we seriously supposed to believe that the idiot who remorselessly breaks his own dog's nose just so he can flirt with the veterinarian is meant to be a messiah? Chris is not a kind person, he is just slightly less malicious than the rest of his obnoxious family. Nuke this example out of orbit.
The implication would have to be very very subtle, and Family Guy is most definitely not a show that does subtlety at all.
Cut it.
I didn't choose the troping life, the troping life chose meAnd what does blond hair have to do with a Messianic Archetype anyway?
It's been cut.
^^ You'd have to get Tightwire to explain that, they were the one that added the entry.
^ Don't bother, they were perma-banned a while ago.

I found this example of Faux Symbolism on the Family Guy page and thought it was odd. I'm thinking of deleting it, but I want some input before I do it:
To me this all seems like a reach. As a longtime viewer of the show, I never got the impression that Chris was supposed to be a Messianic Archetype. I also doubt him dressing up as Optimus Prime was meant to imply he was a messianic archetype.
