Favorite writing trope
Adding “as you do” after describing something that nobody does.
“So he went to hell to pick up his dead wife’s soul, as you do.”
“So she climbed up the tower with her robot hands, as you do.”
one time in an actual conversation I said something along the lines of “I made a flamethrower with a lighter and a can of compressed air, as you do” and the guy I was talking to was like “…no? I don’t???”
Oh God, I say this all the time, and when I started my junior year of college I was talking to someone in my Organic Chemistry class and I said “So I switched my major to pre-med at the end of my sophomore year and I’m gonna do it in two years rather than four, as you do,” and his jaw just dropped and he went “I absolutely do NOT.”
