Trope Co/Trope Co

Since 2003.

Trope Co (TSX: TROPE) is a mega-conglomerate specialising in surplus goods for discerning villains, Applied Phlebotinum, and quick narrative devices for harried writers.

Like all morally-conscious corporations, Trope Co maintains a strong political lobby aimed to combat the notion that a wiki doesn’t require novelty narration techniques to be good. It is well-known that:

• Wikipedia Articles on The Other Wiki are never written as fake ads.
• The Other Wiki is totally, like, formal and boring.

And, therefore, it is safe to conclude that without parody infomercials, TV Tropes would be just like it. You can thank us, and help us on our mission, by re-writing unrelated tropes as if you were selling them. Don’t forget to use gratuitous exclamation marks whenever making product claims! We love that in advertising.

Our fine list of products includes:

• Amazing Technicolor Battlefield®: Why? Your regular battlefield just is not enough!
• Brain Bleach®: The new stain remover designed to get rid of the horrible things you've seen (or heard) in life, from fan-made porn of your favorite cartoon characters to Bad Bad Acting in reviled TV shows and feature films to mind-numbing music of all genres to the occasional Nightmare (accidental and high-octane) and Nausea Fuel. Brain Bleach is also effective in removing those hard stains left behind by chocolate, red wine, grape juice, house paint, grass, tomato sauce, gel pen ink, and blood.
