The TMS TV Tropes challenge

[pap]

TV Tropes is one of the best sites on the Internet. It's designed for lazy writers, and the specific gig is:-

 

1) Visiting it

2) Losing yourself for 9 hours Trope-surfing.

3) Realising everything has been done before

 

Don't believe me? Check these articles out:-

The challenge?

 

Pick three tropes for a story and task your fellow muppets to craft a short (as you like) story encapsulating them.

 

I'm expecting the Bear to weigh in with a sexy tale or two. Maybe we can even coax saintbletch out of coding hiding to demonstrate his undoubted skill. david in sweden may combine a few tropes to tell a story of a bold hero with an interesting slant that underlines many key themes. ottery can say whatever the fúck he likes, just so long as he comes back

 

I'm counting on the hard core conservatives to handle the action movies, and I'm not expecting them to take any shít.

 

There is no judgment, just potential multi-million book/film deals in the works

 

The floor is open.

Deep, pap. Deep.

 

I'll take a look if I get some free time, sounds like an interesting idea.

I figure it's a slow burner, bletch - but very much inspired by some of your TMS threads.

I'm enjoying the useful notes section. Favourite phrase so far is 'fanw&nk'. Quite difficult to jump into all that tropy stuff, but will see.
