A much more understandable trope name is Encyclopaedic Knowledge, which is in fact about characters who seem to know something about everything, but then it has this example near the bottom:quote:Many (if not the vast majority of) tropers on this very wiki would almost certainly qualify, purely by virtue of spending so much time learning so many different trivial details about so many different things for the lulz of it.

You know I never looked at that chart long enough to realize the distinction between "realistic" and "nonrealistic" sizes.

How fortuitously timed for Venn's birthday! Real talk though, there's a somewhat famous specialty bra store in NYC called Linda's. They say that their new employees have to go through a three-month training program before they are allowed to do custom bra fitting for customers. And even that place only advertises up to N cup.

tacodaemon posted:How fortuitously timed for Venn's birthday! I think Venn never intended to make his charts for discussing grossly disproportionate honkers . But still, 3 months to learn how to fit bras? That's comparable to suit fitting as far as I know. Oh what would I do for a goon to open a tell thread on that.

Frank: You know about the cup sizes and all? They have different cups. George: I-I know about the cups. Frank: You got the A, B, C the D. That's the biggest. George: I know the D is the biggest. I've based my whole life on knowing that the D is the biggest.

Afraid of Audio posted:Boobs. I am so tempted to just go and randomly C/P from the introduction to one of their breast tropes now. ...gently caress it, it's Torpedo Tits time! For reasons usually related to Rule of Sexy or Rule of Funny, a woman's chest area is sometimes chosen as the source for some projectile. It could be anything from a weapon to a light show, just that it's not something that should come out of breasts (or usually even the human body). Named for a nickname kids in The Fifties and The Sixties gave the "Bullet Bra" (a brassiere whose cups had a distinct conical shape, designed to.. um.. 'bolster' a lady's look, whether she was wearing a sweater or a grand evening gown). A Sub-Trope of Chest Blaster. Compare Victoria's Secret Compartment. Contrast Breast Attack (when the breast is the target instead).

Burkion posted:Knowing how hazardous those size of breasts are to human beings? The only people I know to date to ruin boobs for me are goons pointing out that sometimes big is too big, and tropers saying "yours is as big as your head, no, we need to go bigger". Now it's just one more reason to not like Tropers.

A trope page called "Bestiality Is Depraved" assures us: "Bestiality is also known as Zoophilia or Zoosexuality, and the Furry Fandom do look down upon it, just so you know."

Cause if there's one thing an alleged analysis site needs, it's to reassure its user base that furries aren't into bestiality. Although one could easily find that statement bullshit considering like every other article its uncredited to any sources so you don't have a voice of credibility to your case.

Anyway I went into the history to find some examples back when they had them. quote:The ''JusticeLeague'' episode 'Panic in the Sky' features a fight between Supergirl and Galatea that is particularly brutal for a children's television show. The enjoyment that Galatea gets from pummeling Supergirl (and making her defeat as long and painful as possible) could even be seen as a direct acknowledgement of this trope.

Well, turns out the tropers have a "Headscratchers" page for Fallout 3. And they have a lot to say about Little Lamplight. A lot.posted:Okay, so when the children in Little Lamplight reach the age of 16, they get kicked out and have to make their way over to Big Town. Where has Little Lamplight been getting replacement kids for the last 200 years? I don't recall anyone in Big Town mentioning having kids and taking them back to Little Lamplight either. posted:Teenage pregnancies, anyone? posted:There's no real reason for Little Lamplight to exist the way it does, except that the Developers just wanted a town full of nothing but children (every settlement is entrenched in Fantasy to some degree - for instance, Tenpenny tower is full of rich people who are there just because they say they're rich, Megaton is a town built around a nuclear bomb, Rivet City is a city inside a wrecked aircraft carrier). The real simple question with no answer is: why, in 200 years, did not one of these kids simply beat up the mayor and say "I'm mayor now and I'm changing the rules, I'm not leaving and neither is anyone else" - 200 years of anarchy and poor education is a long time for everyone to follow a rule like "You're 16 now, get out!" simply because the previous adults left to try and find help. Child Cruelty be damned be damned, at some point, these kids have probably taken shots at each other over dumb arguments. Why hasn't anyone over the age of 12 matured to the point where they think of something better? They have the resources to bring back more kids and more food, but they enforce the rule that they have to kick out adults with the only reasoning being "we don't have the room or resources" - food is required for adolescents far more than at any other time of life, except for pregnant or lactating mothers - yet they bring more children into Little Lamplight, enough weapons to fight off super mutants (and sell to complete strangers), produce enough food for the entire population with enough to spare the Lone Wanderer, and then there's plenty of room in their gigantic cavern, with some intact buildings outside which they could pull apart for more supplies. Okay I'm done here. Some other highlights include "Why is cannibalism evil?", "Why is slavery evil when killing is just SO much worse?" And "Man, the fact that I can't save a psychotic old man from laying in the bed he shat in means Bethesda is sadistic!"

Because what I see is this: Pretty sure this has been posted before but who cares it's worth posting a hundred times posted:I think that this highly Freudian fetish is deeply misunderstood not only by its critics, but by many of its fans as well. Despite appearing to be naught but simple misogyny at first glance, it is actually a rather complex and nuanced mental exercise, incorporating elements of: Getting off on watching women being beaten: a complex and nuanced mental exercise. In the page's edit history, though, we see the TvTropes staff hard at work making their japanese misogynistic violence fetish page less creepy. TvTropes admin FastEddie removes the line "Please do not list any examples. This page is Squicky enough as it is," while TvTropes moderator removes the potholed link to the Humans Are Bastards page for not being objective.
