Line 10:
Just because a trope has become tired over time doesn't mean that it was always tired; for example, there may have been striking examples of stories where [[{{PAGENAME}}#Daria_is_Omnicompetent_and_Damn_Near_Omnipotent|Daria is all powerful]], but that sort of story became tired through repetition. ''Vice versa,'' some tropes may have seemed ill-conceived from their first appearance, but after a while one shining example emerged; however, the ubiquity of the inferior samples made the trope tired before its time.
Furthermore, the fact that a story is written with a well-worn trope does not mean that the story is as tired as the trope. One might be tempted to conclude that a story might be inferior if it uses a tired trope. However, the story might have been written during a time when the trope it uses was still relatively fresh and unexplored. Furthermore, a present-day author might still try to resuscitate a well-known tired trope by bringing a fresh interpretation - unfortunately, many of these tropes have been tried so many times that new stories in the same vein are challenging tasks.
