I Thought It Meant/J-L

Just to clarify:

J-K

• Jack Chick has nothing to do with a male-to-female Transsexualism who experiences Chickification following his/her gender bender.
  • Though one day, someone will write that story. We suspect drugs will be involved.
    • Thus creating the Jack Chick Crack Fic?
  • It'd be very interesting, if Jack Chick himself was the character involved.
  • Nor does it involve stealing a girl.
  • It is not a baby bird that can be used to lift up a car.
  • It's not a baby bird with a Species Surname.
  • And it's not about how surprising it is to hear about someone named Jack then find out she's really a chick.
• JAM Project is not a scientific program to make better preservatives.
• James Bondage is not a Parallel Porn Titles. At least not on this wiki.
• A Jerkass is not a literal ass (buttock or donkey), but they certainly aren't excluded from Jerkass status.
  • It is not a rough tug on someone's hinder.
  • Nor is it a donkey cooked with jerk spices.
• Jerk with a Heart of Gold is not about Zaphod Beeblebrox, though he is an example.
• Jive Turkey is not about any sort of actual dancing bird.
  • It isn't about the goings on in dance clubs in Istambul, Ankara, or Trebizond, either.

  • Nor is it about doctors determining he has a resistance to certain diseases.
  • Nor is it about being immune to Kamen Rider Joker.
• A Joker Jury is not a group of Pungeon Masters forced to serve jury duty, nor is it a courtroom filled entirely with joker playing cards.
• Jones The Cat is not some kind of walking deathtrap of a character, that's Kenny.
• Jossed does not refer to making characters happy, then hitting them with all manner of unpleasantness, romantic discord, and killing off beloved characters, although at this point I have to wonder why it doesn't.
• The Joy of X is not about the drug Ecstasy.
• Jumping Off the Slippery Slope does not involve skiing.
• Jumping the Shark has nothing to do with bestiality. We hope.
  • Nor does it involve a confrontation between Mario and a carnivorous fish. (For starters, he can't stomp on things underwater.)
  • Nor is it a Shark named Jump.
• Kavorka Man has nothing to do with assisted suicide. You're probably thinking "Kevorkian".
• Keep Circulating the Tapes has (sadly) nothing to do with the japanese horror movie Ringu.
• Keystone Army is not the military spin-off of the comically incompetent Keystone Kops.
  • It also has nothing to do with military forces from Pennsylvania.

  • For that matter, Kids Rock is also not "the bullgod" or an "American badass".
• Kill Sat might be what most teens want to do to a certain standardized test, but the page isn't about that.
• A Killer App is not a database of famous murderers, no matter what Wally might tell you. Also, although many of the most well-known killer apps may involve the taking of life, the presence of such is not a prerequisite to the title. It isn't a program for the iPhone that finds you an assassin for hire, either.
• Kingpin in His Gym is not related in any way to Media Research Failure.
• Kirby Dots are not edible, nor will they give you superpowers. They don't have anything to do with a certain video game character, either (Although they might be edible to him).
