Tropedia

  • Before making a single edit, Tropedia EXPECTS our site policy and manual of style to be followed. Failure to do so may result in deletion of contributions and blocks of users who refuse to learn to do so. Our policies can be reviewed here.
  • All images MUST now have proper attribution, those who neglect to assign at least the "fair use" licensing to an image may have it deleted. All new pages should use the preloadable templates feature on the edit page to add the appropriate basic page markup. Pages that don't do this will be subject to deletion, with or without explanation.
  • All new trope pages will be made with the "Trope Workshop" found on the "Troper Tools" menu and worked on until they have at least three examples. The Trope workshop specific templates can then be removed and it will be regarded as a regular trope page after being moved to the Main namespace. THIS SHOULD BE WORKING NOW, REPORT ANY ISSUES TO Janna2000, SelfCloak or RRabbit42. DON'T MAKE PAGES MANUALLY UNLESS A TEMPLATE IS BROKEN, AND REPORT IT THAT IS THE CASE. PAGES WILL BE DELETED OTHERWISE IF THEY ARE MISSING BASIC MARKUP.

Cquote1

 Simmons: Well of course it sounds stupid when you say it like that.

Cquote2
    • With the Exceptions of Caboose, Donut, and Sister
    • Lampshaded when the Reds ask Grif to come up with his own plan and he's unable to think of anything. "My skills lie more in listening to other people's plans and telling them what's wrong with them."
    • The Director judging by the letters we hear dictated in Reconstruction has a pretty sharp pen. When explaining what 'The Meta' is to the politician who's new oversight he resents he describes it as "Merely an entity trying to increase its power, in my view this isn't a rare occurrence at the moment." Ouch.
    • And then in Season 9, there's Pilot Four-Seven-Niner, whose razor-sharp wit puts Church, Tucker, and Grif all to shame.
  • Gary to Roamin the Paladin in Unforgotten Realms. Usually in the form of blunt, tactless explanations of how Roamin is being stupid.
Cquote1

 Roamin: Gary, why are we even friends?

Gary: Well, no-one will be friends with you, and I enjoy pissing on people's parades.

Roamin: Better reasons than most, I suppose.

Gary: Not really, it's probably the worst reason for being friends out of anyone who has ever used the word "friendship" to describe their bond with another person.

  • Homestar Runner: Strong Bad. Strong Sad sometimes fulfills this role when he isn't busy being The Eeyore.
  • Raimi Matthews from Broken Saints.
  • A lot of characters in TTA fall into this category, but Kirbopher15 is by far the worst offender. It gets worse when he goes into 1111 form and is openly acknowledged as being an asshole in said form. Which is quite odd when you realize that had season 4 been produced, Phaxal would've been revealed to be Kirbopher1111. It's not the reveal, it's that their personalities are entirely different, Kirbopher1111 for the most part is a snarky asshole, while Phaxal is a somewhat melodramatic guy who's definitely evil, but doesn't seem to be entirely sure on what his evil goal is.
  • Charlie the Unicorn. Charlie is the worst offender.

 "Were on our way to Candy Mountain, Charlie!" "Yeah, that's great."

"I think I died long ago, and you two are my eternal punishment."
