It's gotta be mocking plots. Of course, I Five Rockman EXE, and it's just too easy to do that. Where else can you find giant psychedelic radiation fields that, when combined with an appropriate data chip, cause ordinary humans to sprout armor and grow beam sabers or guns on their hands?
(Zeke and Mav know exactly what I'm talking about, and for the rest of you, I swear I'm not making this up.)

I'm a little surprised you didn't include "geeky references" or "excreable puns" among the options.
Note: turns out "excreable" doesn't mean quite what I thought it did, but its actual meaning will do in this context.

Re geeky references: Okay, yeah, that should've been there.
Re puns: Ditto. Maybe I should recalibrate the poll, huh? I've seen Megaman NT Warrior, so I've seen my share of Crossfusions. Still don't get how they're supposed to help. I think that the implication is that the closer the link and the shorter the reaction between NetOp and NetNavi, the better the results. Oh, and remember that since all of that stuff is holographic, it's no weirder than the monsters in Yu-Gi-Oh.

Learning new words is always good. Heck, I never even knew that a word like "predicate" existed until Mr. Morton came along.

The best I can come up with is "excruciating," but ... uh, yeah, that's all I had to say here...

Mr. Morton? He's the subject of this sentence (and what the predicate says, he does).

Hey, if I wrote a fiver that used everything mentioned in this thread, would it be Everybody-Gets-a-Trope Day?
