I've been thinking... in the anime version of Steins;Gate, Okabe more or less uses this trope to describe one of the characters, Luka Urushibara. Here is the quote:
Urushibara Ruka. Delicate as an orchid. Fair as a cherry blossom. The personification of feminine grace... and a dude. Tall as a willow, slender as a reed... a dude. Radiant in shrine vestments... dude. The sun dips low in the rosy sky. Cicadas buzz. Ruka... is a dude.
I believe that this needs a better name. Something that is more of a contrast of Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking. Maybe something like "Littering, Indecent Exposure, and Homicide."

I disagree. It's clear enough, it's fairly witty, and it's too the point. And it's WAY too deeply wicked to change for such a trivial reason.

I'm totally using this trope in my apartment window. ;) My "apartment" is a storefront in a shopping area, so I'm playing it off as a reckless genetic engineering firm that specializes in walking neurotoxic carnivorous plants, with professionally printed signs and all. Last night I added a computer screen to the window to cycle through a powerpoint presentation on loop, and I'm totally stealing this trope for the "Safety" section, something like:
Safety:
- Genetic engineering is a safe process.
- We take safety seriously.
- We do not believe that the plants will actively hunt your children.
- All due precautions are taken.
It's super effective.
World Distributors printed Doctor Who annuals for all the first six Doctors. Was it only in the seventies that it had the tone mentioned in the Torchwood parody?

I need someone to link the entry for Once Upon a Time (the ABC Series) under Live-Action TV to the appropriate page, because I can't seem to get it to work.
Qui odoratus est qui fecit.
I'm gonna play this literally, with "Squick" being a Bland-Name Product of Gack.
