* Justified:
* Bob is a Cloudcuckoolander.
* Or The Ditz.
* Inverted: Bob gets the significant point, but the person speaking was only talking about a minor detail, or even about something completely unrelated.
* Subverted: Bob first points out a small detail, then realizes the real point.
* Double Subverted: ...only to go back to obsessing over the small detail.
* Deconstructed: Bob hates Alice. He only pretends to miss the point in order to let Alice get beat up.
* Reconstructed: The "small detail" actually proves to be more important than the more blatantly obvious point.
* Parodied: ???
* Zig Zagged: ???
* Averted: Bob understands everything.
* Enforced: Bob misses the point just because the creators want comedic purpose in cartoons.
* Lampshaded: ???
* Invoked: ???
* Exploited: ???
* Defied: Bob, who has a trouble understanding the things people tell him, improves his focus and learns to think about what was said before responding so that he doesn't look like an idiot.
* Discussed: ???
* Conversed: ??? You know, Comically Missing the Point has a good amount of edits. People must really like this website to maintain something so well.
