Duck Season! Rabbit Season!/Playing With

Basic Trope: Two characters are in an argument that effectively deteriorates to "Yes!" and "No!". Someone switches sides, and the switcher invariably wins.

• Straight: The character who switches sides wins, generally making the other one look stupid.
• Exaggerated: This trope is applied to a more complicated argument.
• Justified: The character who doesn't switch sides is an idiot.
• Inverted: The person who switches sides loses.
• Subverted: The non-switcher plays along but switches it at the last moment. "You really didn't think that was going to work, did you?"
• Double Subverted: The non-switcher switches at the last moment, but the non-switcher catches on and flips it back. "Yep, I did."
• Parodied: Alice and Bob argue about having children or not. Bob doesn't want, but Alice switches side and he too. So Bob gets pregnant, to Alice's greatest confusion.
• Deconstructed: The trope is so widely abused, that switching sides is forbidden. People must sign a statement of intentions before any discussion.
• Reconstructed: They wind up pulling the routine over whether or not they properly signed the statement of intentions.
• Zig Zagged: See Double Subverted-- rinse and repeat as necessary.
• Averted: The argument is more complicated/nobody switches sides.
• Enforced: "Let's show how crafty Alice can be, and how gullible Bob is!"
• Lampshaded: After Alice switches her argument, Bob remarks "Why does that always work?"
• Invoked: Alice knows that Bob is easily manipulated, and thus switches her argument, knowing it'll cause her to win.
• Defied: Each person delivers his statement once and only once, and if Bob tries to prolong the argument Alice keeps her mouth shut.
• Discussed: "It seems like when people switch sides of the argument, they always win! Why does it almost never work like that?"
• Conversed: "This is a pretty pointless argument. Whenever someone swaps sides, they win. Kinda like politics."
