@femfreq@DifferentGames What is a refrigerator trope? -
@DanLikesPizza It's when the female character, usually a love interest, is killed to make a male one more "interesting" -
@MaxwellElvis Weird. How the hell is that related to a fridge? -
@DanLikesPizza@MaxwellElvis there was a comic of the Flash where he finds his dead girlfriend in a refrigerator. For the pathos. Obviously. -
@lizbth_geeks@DanLikesPizza@MaxwellElvis Green Lantern -
@kohaisama@DanLikesPizza@MaxwellElvis damnit. I knew it was one of the two. Nerd points lost :/ still awful regardless.
