Evil Corporate Female Business Women

Its an antagonistic trope you don't see all that often because they try to demonize it as something only men genetically inherit.

That scene in Ratchet and Clank Going Commando when you need to do the Bike Race missions and Clank joins a Biker Gang because he's really super sweet and understanding.

I was going to say that one of my favourite "tropes" is when there's the group of main characters engage in banter and informal conversation from time to time. Then I realized that's not a trope, it good character development and writing.

I just love old-timey racial stereotypes, and by old-timey I mean I'll settle for anything that used to be okay until the mid-00's or so then became offensive. Not to mention really old stuff that I could see being legit offensive.

Fuck this PC thug entertainment landscape. I hope Rump gives a shit enough about it to eventually get around to burning down current entertainment standards by the time his reign is over. I mean ideally it should be accomplished without him but man, hope he helps out somehow.
