01.The Film Of The Book
Got a hit book? Turn it into a hit film. What could be more natural? The name alone will sell tickets and adapting a hit book to the screen, well, that doesn't really take talent, now does it? [Note: TV shows also apply]

02.Fanon
Fanon is the set of theories based on that material which, while they generally seem to be the "obvious" or "only" interpretation of canonical fact, are not actually part of the canon. Occasionally, the explanation seems good enough to just be "common sense." The salient point to remember is that when someone shouts, "That episode was terrible because it violates canon!", they are very often totally incorrect.

03.The Couch
It's usually center-stage and positioned so that anyone sitting there is facing directly into the audience. [Note: The subject must be centered and preferably facing ahead (though not necessarily). It must also have softness to it (because it’s a couch after all)]

04.Design Student's Orgasm
Overwhelmingly, these designs are made with vector graphics, to create solid areas of color and crisp, geometrically neat outlines. It is somewhat akin to a visual form of Purple Prose. [Note: Overly elaborate icons, heavy on textures and preferably showing geometrical or flowery themes.]
