Our top story, the population of parasitic tree lizards has exploded, and local citizens couldn't be happier! It seems the rapacious reptiles have developed a taste for the common pigeon, also known as the 'feathered rat', or the 'gutter bird'. For the first time, citizens need not fear harassment by flocks of chattering disease-bags.
Later, Bart receives an award from Mayor Quimby outside the town hall. Several lizards slink past.
QUIMBY
For decimating our pigeon population, and making Springfield a less oppressive place to while away our worthless lives, I present you with this scented candle.
Skinner talks to Lisa.
SKINNER
Well, I was wrong. The lizards are a godsend.
LISA
But isn't that a bit short-sighted? What happens when we're overrun by lizards?
SKINNER
No problem. We simply unleash wave after wave of Chinese needle snakes. They'll wipe out the lizards.
LISA
But aren't the snakes even worse?
SKINNER
Yes, but we're prepared for that. We've lined up a fabulous type of gorilla that thrives on snake meat.
LISA
But then we're stuck with gorillas!
SKINNER
No, that's the beautiful part. When wintertime rolls around, the gorillas simply freeze to death.
The game has passed the Godzilla Threshold:

This is where experience comes in; veteran gamers know that this is where you have to get sneaky. Newbies usually wind up casting Summon Bigger Fish:

This had been escalating prior to the existence of ECM, certainly, but that is when it passed the Godzilla Threshold.
There is a reason these are called, "tropes;" they are the stereotypical common mistakes that lead to situational comedy. Is this supposed to be the first Massively-Multiplayer Online Sit-Com?
This is why no one agrees on what they think should be fixed, but everyone thinks it's broken, now.

*The best part is that it explains the existence of Jar-Jar Binks and Queen Amidala as due to being forced to roleplay with an 8-year-old girl
The problem is that it inevitably leads to...

And if I may be serious for a moment, Tvtropes.org is literally a huge pile of paedophile-harboring garbage. Seriously, it is the worst "academic" website of all time and it actively makes the average intelligence of it's users go down as they try to "analyse" fiction by putting it into small, vaguely defined boxes that someone wrote "trope" on.
Seriously, Tvtropes is awful and you should feel bad for trying to use it as part of a serious argument.
This Is A Bad Thread TM
Edit: Seriously, I can't overstate how worthless Tvtropes is.

There are still plenty of threads in General Discussion with people posting about about le problème du jour, this is just where bad threads are relocated, Mr. "I can't post without using a swear word."

If the game would quit sucking I would quit swearing. As it is, I am on other forums advocating team-killing anyone with ECM at the beginning of the round.

Ah the old "Make Your Team Less Effective Because I'm Bad" tactic. That got me out of some rough spots.
