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.

  • Fridge Brilliance: At first, it seems ridiculous how Orel can misinterpret anything. Then you realize that Moralton's educational system is backwards (at best) and that most of the people he interacts with have...flawed morals. Also, the "Lost Commandments", which were made up by Clay and/or Clay's mother and were used by Clay to further control Orel.
    • The "Lost Commandments" are actually a family tradition for Clay. In "Passing", A young Clay is seen quoting one of these "Lost" Commandments.
  • Fridge Brilliance: This entry from the Crowning Moments of Awesome Page did it for me:
Cquote1

 Sick of him, Reverend Putty, Officer Papermouth and Doctor Potterswheel get ready to beat the shit out of Clay in "Sacrifice" - then they decide that he isn't worth it and walk away. (Awesomer when you remember that Clay's dad does essentially the same thing— even as an adult, Clay seeks attention through abuse— and fails.

  • Fridge Horror: When you consider the fact that Orel's short claymation film includes his dad's belt wrapping around puppet Orel like a snake.
    • 'Nuther Fridge Horror moment: I dunno which episode it was exactly, but Clay references Satan as the "Lord of the Flies." In the hunting trip episode, while Clay is raving like a lunatic while drunk, we see that there are quite a few flies crawling all over him as he becomes angrier. Symbolism?
