List of gags

Comedy is a large part of many franchises throughout fiction. Each styling has its own methods for getting its audience to laugh and takes on those methods. Even though creators might try their best to tell original and unpredictable jokes, not every idea is a winner. Below are some gags that play out uniformly and may be considered Predictable And Lame by humor critics.

A
Are They Falling For It? - Someone cries or pretends to be woeful, then checks the person they mean to rouse for a brief moment to see if they've been moved.

C
Can't Count - Someone says "I have (number) words for you", then follows their opening up with an incorrect total of words.

F
Fake-Out - A scene intentionally sets the audience up to attempt a read on how it will happen only to go in another direction.

G
Glass Pane Guys - Two men who carry a glass pane across a street that a high-speed driver smashes through.

I
Instant Contradiction - Someone makes a statement only to go against it moments later.

O
On-Hold - Someone makes a call to a number that puts them on line. A song relating to the caller's current problem plays to Throw Salt On The Wound.

P
Photo Trickery - A photograph of a project is held up before that project, then lowered so the audience can see how much the real thing sucks. This is common in scenes where somebody who lacks any real crafting abilities Rolls A 1 in that exact skill.
