Crowner for rename. Can somebody add this to the thread?
Zzzzzzzzzz
Done so.
...if you don’t love you’re dead, and if you do, they’ll kill you for it.
There seems to be a consensus to rename. The names suggested thus far are:
Any other suggestions?
Zzzzzzzzzz
Before we decide on a new name, can somebody crystalize for me what the trope is supposed to be about? Is it supposed to be about how the character gets high unintentionally, or about the character acting wacky while unintentionally high?
Zzzzzzzzzz
Both, but the intoxication must be accidental.
...if you don’t love you’re dead, and if you do, they’ll kill you for it.
Since no one has posted anything else in a while here's an Alt Titles Crowner: https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/crowner.php/AlternativeTitles/LemonWackyHello?open=all#us5h0mtd
Could someone hook this please?
Bump. Vote on the names please.
So it looks like Intoxication Ensues. I'll try to move the page tonight if there are no objections.

I think pretty-much any suggested title could be better than the current one.
Accidental mistakes are forgivable, intentional ones are not.
Dog and Pony Show
Yeah, I never would have expected the title to refer to anything but a character having a wacky introduction.

As close as they are, make Inadvertent Intoxication a redirect.
...if you don’t love you’re dead, and if you do, they’ll kill you for it.
Can do with the redirect. I lied in my last post. This afternoon or tonight.
Since Inadvertent Intoxication, has almost caught up to Intoxication Ensues now should we leave it up a bit longer to see which is the rename and which is the redirect? Could we possibly change the title of the thread to get people to notice and vote as well?

I think we should have a TV Tropes Hall Of Shame for the really bad titles for articles which got renamed or deleted. This can be the first entry on that page.

^ Seriously. It sounds like a trope for characters whose intro scenes are as absurd as Robin Williams showing up in a lemon-yellow zoot suit and doffing his hat as he greets you with "Lemon wacky hello!"

It's neck to neck in voting. Also, I agree about its being a poor name.
Lost in Space
We can make the runner-up a redirect to the winner, if it's close. We do it all the time.
"It's Occam's Shuriken! If the answer is elusive, never rule out ninjas!"
Making the runner up a redirect sounds good to me. Maybe one more day of voting then move? Unless anyone has an objection?
Voting hasn't changed in a while. The new name is Intoxication Ensues with Inadvertent Intoxication as a redirect. I'm going to start moving this now.
EDIT: How do you move archived discussion?

Zzzzzzzzzz
You can either cut and paste from the actual discussion page and reinsert links and potholes as you go, or use View Source, copy the whole thing into a text editor, take out all the extra markup and then paste the results into the new discussion page.
...if you don’t love you’re dead, and if you do, they’ll kill you for it.
Didn't see a view source option, so copy/past it is. Only 2/3 of the wicks left.

Well, moving seems to be a done as it will ever be. So lock time?

Vote up for yes, down for no.
STUART, could you clarify the second type? It might be because I'm less than familiar with Life On Mars.
