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.

"With great power comes great responsibility,"

That's the Catch Phrase of old Uncle Ben

And if you missed it, don't worry, they'll say the line

Again and again and again.

Cquote1

Oh, you know of what I speak

Songs within your head and eek

It's a most rebellious song

When the boss has come along

Or perhaps th'annoying tune

Is a Christmas song in June

Or songs politically inclined

But you stand on the other side



They're so annoying, all these ear worms

E'en if you like the song

The timing generally is wrong

There's just one way to lose these ear worms

Plant in someone else's head,

And make it play inside their brain instead.
Tawaki, "All These Ear Worms"

"Hijacked auditory control

Meme lodging worms infest

A mind virus taking hold

Rife with barbed hooks and trite melodies

Chiclete De Ouvido

Loops on repeat, regurgitated

Dry heaving chunks of aural bile

Can't get this out, of my head

Make it stop!"

The song that you ran from is back again

You wonder if the madness will ever end

Trying to stop it is futile

So just listen now to my Musical Doodle
