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.

Basic Trope: An evil product has a warning on the label declaring it to be evil.

  • Straight: Killer Kola is a Psycho Serum which has a small print warning label on the can declaring that it may contain traces of evil.
  • Exaggerated: Killer Kola is a Psycho Serum that has a huge yellow and black warning label on the can declaring it might contain tiny amounts of evil.
    • Alternatively, the label is ridiculously small.
  • Justified: The company that sells Killer Kola do not want to be sued by someone for not listing evil on the ingredients list.
  • Inverted: Goody Gummy Bears has a label declaring it contains massive levels of goodness.
  • Subverted: Killer Kola doesn't have a label declaring traces of evil.
  • Double Subverted:... Unless you view the can under a blacklight.
  • Averted: Killer Kola doesn't contain evil.
  • Lampshade: "Look, it even has a warning label!"
  • Played for Laughs: Almost by default.
