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.

  • David, with regards to Natalie's jerk of an ex-boyfriend:
Cquote1

 David: You know, as Prime Minister, I could just have him murdered.

Cquote2
    • David: Ruthless, trained killers are just a phonecall away.
  • Like a lot that happens in Daniel and Sam's plot, this one is bittersweet almost to the point of Mood Whiplash. Daniel and Karen are discussing Sam and how he always hides in his room, obviously crying because his mother has passed away, and Daniel not knowing just how he should talk to him. Then at one point we get,
Cquote1

 Daniel: He could be injecting heroin into his eyeballs.

Karen: At the age of eleven?

Daniel: All right, maybe not his eyeballs. Maybe just his veins.

Cquote2
    • "My horrid son Bernard stays in his room all the time. Thank goodness!"
  • The discussion of Nativity play roles:
Cquote1

 Kid: It's the Nativity play - and I'm the lobster. First lobster.

Mother: There was more than one lobster present at the birth of Jesus?

Cquote2
    • And when we actually see the play, it turns out to include three lobsters, an octopus, a whale, and Spider-Man.
  • Practically anything Billy says or does. Just one of many is:
Cquote1

 Billy: Kids, here's a message from your Uncle Bill: don't buy drugs. Become a pop star and they give you them for free.

Cquote2
    • Another great one, from his radio interview:
Cquote1

 Host: Best shag you ever had?

Billy: Britney Spears.

Host: Wow.

Billy: Just kidding. She was rubbish.

Cquote2
  • While recording their cover of "Love is All Around", Billy and Joe have this hysterical exchange:
Cquote1

Billy: This is shit, isn't it?

Joe: Yep! Solid gold shit, maestro!

Cquote2
    • Billy's smile in answer to that just makes the scene so much better.
  • David dancing to "Jump (For My Love)" by the Pointer Sisters.
