TVTropes
![]() |
TVTropes.
It, in theory, exists to catalog the various recurring patterns in stories, characters, and general entertainment production and consumption.
It attracts a great quantity of weeaboos, neckbeards, fanboys, fangirls, other weirdos, and just plain losers as editors.
It's frequently poorly written, particularly the examples sections, as a consequence of attracting fanboys, etc., etc., as editors.
It's a great place, in theory, to go to find ideas for your next campaign (but don't overdo it, since that's only in theory).
It's prone to in-jokes, that occasionally leak out onto the wider Internet. (Sometimes known as a TVTropism.)
It's worth mentioning here only because it has had a definite influence on internet culture in general, and will probably show up at your table when mentioned by That Guy.
To speak of it any further is to invite madness, particularly since so much of it is so shitty.
