Should there be a crazy/pyscho ex-boyfriend or man scorned trope page too?

I can't help but laugh a little at the picture. It looks like something straight out of r/Gacha Life Cringe.

Right now the page quote is,

<blockquote>"Never let the crazy outweigh the hot." — Regarding Mathilda, of Mad World and Anarchy Reigns</blockquote>

Where does that quote come from? Without a source for the quote, it looks like it's just a troper's comment about that character, which doesn't seem ideal for a page quote.

If nobody objects, I'll change it—I'm thinking to this from Taylor Swift's "Blank Space", but I'm open to suggestions:

<blockquote>Got a long list of ex-lovers They’ll tell you I’m insane But I’ve got a blank space, baby And I’ll write your name.</blockquote>

Agreed that it has to go. Not only is it Not An Example as written (it's more "hot chicks be crazy," which is entirely different), your point about being a random troper's opinion is very valid.

Disagree on the suggestion, though. Doesn't really fit the trope that well, and given how much misuse this sees, it needs something really clear. Keep in mind that there's no indication of this trope actually taking place in those lyrics.

Shouldn't the actual title be Psycho-Ex and the Psycho-Ex Girlfriend be the redirect?

That seems more even handed.

what's with

%%[[caption-width-right:250:[[AWorldwidePunomenon Chau on this]]!]]


? because it's not something described in formatting guide. Other than %% comments out the image while keeping it there, without any, you know, comments on this weirdness. The first line tries to show some video where picture is normally placed (it ends up as 2 blocked embedded objects there, anyway)

Does FLCL count when the she is unable to reach her ex and so glomps the younger brother?

I'd think that it would only apply if it's the protagonist's ex girlfriend. In the case of FLCL, the brother would fall under some variation of Replacement Love Interest.
