DELETED:
* HaveAGayOldTime: George constantly states that Curley\\\'s wife will get them in trouble because she is \\\"jail bait\\\". [[{{Lolicon}} Jail]] [[TheJailBaitWait bait?]] Which may have actually led to it being the {{Trope Namer|s}}, albeit not the codifier. In the context of the narrative, this is more likely to be down to Curley\\\'s reaction -- he is shown as very possessive over her. Possible BerserkButton.
This is to my best knowledge NOT example of the trope. That\\\'s for shift in meaning of certain words.

* ScaryBlackMan: Lennie has been played by black actors, but Steinbeck never says he is and most portrayals have him as white. If he were, he\\\'d be subjected to the same treatment as Crooks, who \\\'\\\'is\\\'\\\' black.
** In the book George is said to be \\\"dark of face\\\",could also be interpreted as just being tan from working in the sun,though.
** That Crooks said Lennie was unwelcome in his room is proof Lennie wasn\\\'t supposed to be black.
{{Natter}}ific. Even if some might think he\\\'s black or he can be played as such in movies, he\\\'s not scary. He doesn\\\'t fit the trope.
