Phew! Just did a complete page overhaul. For the most part, I just expanded on ZeroContextExamples, got rid of broken web links, fixed the formatting, and eliminated any mention of examples being \"recent\". However, I also deleted a few examples I found to be invalid, and I\'ll explain my reasoning here:

{{Adorkable}}: Should only refer to characters who are seen as this in-universe, not by the audience.

BadassBeard: Jake is about the furthest thing from a badass you could imagine.

BareYourMidriff: Only refers to when the trope is used for fanservice.

BewareTheNiceOnes: Amir is by no means a NiceGuy. Jake even notes in “Blood Donation” that he can’t think of a single nice thing Amir has done for anyone.

CoolUncle: The video linked is not an episode of Jake and Amir; it’s just a cute video of Amir (out of character) entertaining his niece.

EyeScream: Doesn’t actually happen in the episode; Jake just describes Lasik eye surgery in a really graphic way.

Flanderization: YMMV trope, does not belong on the main page.

TheFunInFuneral: Amir’s aunt’s funeral happens entirely offscreen and we don’t hear about anything funny happening during it.

InDaClub: Just because “Interpreters Part 4\" takes place in a club doesn’t mean it qualifies for the trope. The trope is about an idealized portrayal of clubbing, and in the episode nothing goes right for either of the protagonists.

JugglingLoadedGuns: In the two examples provided, Amir’s carelessness with the gun isn’t over-the-top enough to qualify for this trope.

NoSocialSkills: The first example was fine. The second example was a ZeroContextExample with two links- one broken, and one where Jake was more of a CasanovaWannabe than a social alien.

OurGhostsAreDifferent: This one I wasn’t actually sure about deleting. Does the mere fact that the work has ghosts in it make it qualify for the trope? Regardless, it’s a ZeroContextExample, so I commented it out.

ReplacementGoldfish: It’s a replacement for a loved one who died, not a coworker/friend who’s just indisposed.

ShipTease: HoYay aside, those episodes imply that Jake may like Amir \'\'as a friend\'\', not as a romantic partner.

And that\'s it! Let me know if there are any questions or concerns.
