Line 40 ⟶ 46:

|-
|'''Classics'''
|Cannot be added together with '''Hall of Fame'''.
|-
|'''MOTHER OF FUCK THIS PAGE IS LONG LIKE MY PAINIS'''
|Cannot be added together with '''Shortpasta'''. Do not use this category ironically, like putting it in a very short page.

|-
|'''WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS SHIT'''
|Use sparingly. Due to the nature of Trollpastastrollpastas, it's easy for them to dabble in some very strange territory, so this category should only be reserved for pastas with the weirdness cranked up to 11 or if they cause a visceral "WTF" reaction.
|-
|'''YT Readings'''
|Only add to pages that contain linked or embedded YouTube narration(s) from someone ''other'' than '''{{cat|Read by HoodoHoodlum|HoodoHoodlum}}''', '''{{cat|Read by MichaelLeroi|MichaelLeroi}}''', '''{{cat|Read by retsupurae|retsupurae}}''', '''{{cat|Read by SOG|SomeOrdinaryGamers}}''' or '''{{cat|Read by Yuriofwind|Yuriofwind}}'''.<br>(Note: as long as this requirement is met, none of these six categories are actually mutually exclusive. For example, if a pasta has a narration from SOG and another narration from someone without their own dedicated category, you may add both Read by SOG and YT Readings to that pasta.)
