Literal Money Metaphor. I swear, I've seen it before, I just didn't realize we had a trope for it.
Cold turkey's getting stale. Tonight I'm eating crow.I constantly find new tropes because I search for them for Trope Report. This time I discovered Caffeine Failure.
Currently Working On: Incorruptible Pure PurenessI didn't know Plot Archaeology was a thing until a couple of days ago.
INT is knowing a tomato is a fruit. WIS is knowing it doesn't belong in a fruit salad. CHA is convincing people that it does.The Wicked Stage (because it's a Forgotten Trope).
Welcome to Corneria!I like both its dramatic grammar (or "drammar", if you will) and the fact that it's more intelligible than Winds of Destiny, Change! is.
The Revolution Will Not Be TropeableSommelier Speak. I see it used as a gag every now and then, might look if there's stuff I could add/crossreference across the wiki.
Clue, Evidence, and a Smoking Gun.
The Protomen enhanced my life.Blind Mistake, aka what Mr. Magoo is up to.
INT is knowing a tomato is a fruit. WIS is knowing it doesn't belong in a fruit salad. CHA is convincing people that it does.Real Men Have Short Hair. Aware of the concept but not the fact that it was a trope here
"Leftover items still have value!"Sympathetic Sentient Weapon. Much less omnipresent of a concept than I thought, though I guess other instances of classified killing machines would go under Gunboat Diplomacy.
Silver and gold, silver and goldBecoming Part of the Image. I forget how often this happens with pictures of mules lol
Silver and gold, silver and goldDivine Birds. Was aware of the concept, definitely, just didn't know it was a trope.

New theme music also a boxI just discovered Unconventional Formatting.
Currently Reading: N/ASenior Creep. Don't have much to say about it other than my thoughts being "Oh yeah, this is a thing"
Silver and gold, silver and goldCount me as another person who didn’t know about that trope. I thought Screw Politeness, I'm a Senior! was the trope for old people who were jerks. ^_^;;
I smell magic in the air. Or maybe barbecue.Not a recent case, but one year and a half ago I dreamed about a trope where a character would change their ways after having had a nightmare that made them realize what they were doing wrong. When I woke up, I thought I had a tropable concept to take to TLP... but upon checking, I discovered we already have Opinion-Changing Dream.
I had a similar dream not too long before that one, but upon waking up I knew from the get-go that we have one because I could recall it instantly (Wrong Turn at Albuquerque).

Just found out about Sandbox.Common Troping Mistakes the other day. Kinda wish I knew about it when I was new to the site - I made some errors described on that page then.
