Seriously, this site has so many ideas to explore, as well as examples. I spend hours upon hours here and still haven't read everything. It is rife with ideas that can be implemented in writing.

But it is addicting. Really, really addicting...

Have fun!

Yes. Just. Yes.

I love that site, and it _is_ addicting, and it will make you realize everything about your plots that you didn't want to know. It'll also ruin everything for you, because after browsing a while, you'll start to see everything in terms of tropes - I like to think it makes you a better writer and a more analytical reader, but that may just be me...

Yays, I am addicted to it. Going on my bookmarks for sure. This was amusing, and thought provoking at the same time. And your warning, Gryphon, I think it should have been more pronounced. I spent three hours on this, completely ignoring everything else. Thanks a lot. Oh well. Must write. Bye and thanks for the cool site!
There once was a cat.
He wasn’t particularly fat.
Fuzzy was his favorite mat.
And really, that was that.

Oh, but did you really think so?
Keep reading, it’s just the start of the show!
And as for how far this tale will go…
Well, even the cat doesn’t know.

Glad you all like it!

ankhirke: Yeah, I know. I definitely think in terms of tropes now. I really did use a bunch of trope titles in conversations today, even when everyone else didn't know what I was talking about. :D

WaterVyper: What, the two or three times I said "addicting" wasn't enough for you? A stronger warning? *edits* ;)

Gahks: Thanks. :)

Did I mention it has a story idea generator? No I didn't, because I didn't know until now...
