Hey there. I'm Aspie. Won't tell you my real name cause I don't know who you are. What?! That does ''not'' make me a ConspiracyTheorist! Take that back! Well, to prove I'm not one, I will tell you some things about myself. I live in the great state of Washington where I attend UsefulNotes/{{Seattle}} University. I'm 23 years old and I'm currently pursuing a Bachelor's Degree in Criminal Justice with a specialization in Forensic Psychology. (And yes, I do watch ''CriminalMinds''.) My favorite type of literature is the detective novel. (Big shocker right?) I also love anime and manga. My favorite (naturally) is ''CaseClosed''. My favorite authors are Lisa Gardner and Robert Crais, and my favorite band is Music/{{Nickelback}}.

Tropes I've Launched:


* RulesOfTheGame

* PlatoIsAMoron
* HustlingTheMark
* InsaneForgiveness
* KillerCop
* LibbyMyOldFriend

* YouShouldntHave
* NoObjectPermanence

Oh, and one more thing: I have UsefulNotes/AspergerSyndrome.

!! Tropes this troper provides examples of:
* AppointmentTelevision: ''Series/PrettyLittleLiars'' and ''Series/OnceUponATime''. Also, ''Series/AgentsOfSHIELD'', ''Series/TheFlash2014'', and ''Series/{{The 100}}''.
* AspergersSyndrome: Given my username, [[CaptainObvious that goes without saying]]
* BerserkButton:
** Being cut off in the middle of sentences
** Vegetarians who act like they're morally superior because they don't eat meat, as though plants aren't just as alive as animals.
* BunnyEarsLawyer: I consistently get A's in all classes and I have a 3.875 grade point average, but I have this quirk of plugging in my Zune and rocking out to the music while I'm walking places. Also, I mutter story ideas to myself in public.
* ButtMonkey: I was bullied a lot in elementary school, middle school, and high school. The Butt Monkey-ness tapered off when I entered college, by which time I had stopped caring about popularity anyway.
* CaptainObvious: On occasion.
* CatchPhrase:
** "What do they think I am? A moron?" (When receiving an obvious piece of junk mail/virus mail.)
** [[DeadpanSnarker "If you say so"]]
* CelebrityCrush: On VictoriaJustice and SarahMichelleGellar.
* CelibateHero
* CouldSayItBut:
** Would absolutely never say that the officiating crew in [[BerserkButton Superbowl XL]] cheated the Seahawks out of a win.
** {{Subverted}} when a book called "Your Government Failed You" was donated to the Value Village where I work:
-->'''Me:''' I could make a snarky comment about that ''({{beat}})'' so I will.
* CursedWithAwesome: Other people call AspergersSyndrome a disability. I call it the best thing that ever happened to me.
* DeadpanSnarker: I usually [[AvertedTrope avert]] this one, but sometimes I play it straight. Sometimes, I even direct the snark [[SelfDeprecation at myself]].
* DoesNotLikeShoes: I wear them in public, but I usually take them off at home.
* DudeNotFunny: I don't get told this a lot, but I did once say this about a guy who told a really offensive Asperger's joke.
* EmbarrassingFirstName: Subverted. I almost had the embarassing name (first ''and'' last) of Raymond [=McQueed=], but I was put for adoption, so I got named something else. With no offense intended to my birth mother, thank goodness for that.
* EpicFail: [[TakeThatMe Because ordinary failure just doesn't do it for me.]]
* GenreSavvy: I've made the following correct guesses about TV shows:
** [[Series/PrettyLittleLiars "Mona Vanderwaal is A"]] - I knew this one from the first ten minutes of the pilot, before ever having read a single word of the books. Also, "Alison is alive." (Not that I was exactly alone in that one.)
** [[Series/{{Elementary}} "Irene Adler is Moriarity."]] - Her reappearance was just a little too convenient for my place.
** [[Series/HouseOfAnubis "The Collector is Rufus Zeno."]] - I was honestly shooting in the dark on this one.
* GrammarNazi: Only towards myself and even then my grammar isn't right 100% of the time. However, I do have this quirk of using correct English even in online conversations.(As opposed to using LeetLingo.)
* InsistentTerminology: I should only have to say this once: It is Asperger's Syndrome. It is not Asperger's ''Disease.'' (And yes, I have heard it called that before.)
* IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy
* {{Leitmotif}}: If I had one, it would be "Outcast" by James Durbin.
* {{Megane}}
* MistakenForRacist: I fell victim to this at the Value Village where I work. Apparently, some customers are under the impression that I have both the time and the inclination to take special notice of their skin color.
* MyFriendsAndZoidberg: I had this to say on the lineup for the 2011 American Music Awards:
-->"The performance lineup for this year's American Music Awards will be comprised of a number of talented musicians. Oh, and JustinBieber."
* NiceGuy: I try to be one.
* NiceHat: I have handmade replica of Naoto's hat from ''VideoGame/{{Persona 4}}''
* OldShame: See directly below.
* PrettyFlyForAWhiteGuy: I had what I can only describe as a "rapper phase" in high school. Thankfully, while I still enjoy the occasional rap song, I've put any delusions about writing them firmly in the past, [[OldShame which is where they should remain.]] Seriously, I was ''terrible!''
* ProudToBeAGeek: Hell yeah!
* RealMenWearPink: I'm probably one of the unmasculine guys there is...and I'm damn proud of it.
* [[WholesomeCrossdresser Wholesome Crossplayer]]: I went to Sakura-Con 2010 as [[{{Persona 4}} Naoto Shirogane]]. (Mind you, it helped that Naoto herself is a WholesomeCrossdresser, so the costume was actually male. It still counts as "crossplay" because the ''character'' is female.)
* RummageFail: Has done this before.
* {{Seattle}}
* WritingByTheSeatOfYourPants
* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: {{Subverted}}. I tried to dye my hair blue in high school, but [[EpicFail my hair was too dark, so the dye didn't take. Should've bleached it first, but didn't want to in case I changed my mind later.]]

!! Tropes used in my writing:

* BigBadFriend: [[spoiler: The stalker in "Memento Mori" turns out to be the main character's best friend.]]
* BreakingTheFourthWall: The main character in "Diary of a Demon Exchange Student" addresses the reader a couple of times during the story. [[JustifiedTrope Justified]], as she's using a magic crystal to record her words, thoughts, and actions as the events of the story unfold around her.
* {{Bookworm}}: Caitlin Myles, the protagonist of "The Book Jumper": In her very first scene, she's in the library of a juvenile detention center, reading ''[[Literature/TheDivineComedy The Inferno]]'' and gets annoyed with a guard for interrupting her.
* ConvenientlyAnOrphan: Caitlin Myles again. Her parents were killed in a car accident while she was in juvie, so now she has to live with her uncle, also known as the lawyer who secured her an early release.
* DarkIsNotEvil: Demons in "Diary of a Demon Exchange Student": Pure-bred demons have dark green scales and orange eyes, giving them an unpleasant reptilian look, but they are no more inclined to evil than the average human would be.
* EasyAmnesia: Averted in "Memento Mori", my first novel. The main character spends most of the novel having no clue who she is or why some anonymous stalker is threatening her. The memories come back slowly and only in response to various stimuli.
* [[HalfHumanHybrid Half-Demon Hybrid]]: I will be introducing some of these as "Diary of a Demon Exchange Student" progresses. I've already conceived of a race of lion-esque demons called Sekhmites (so named because the first ones were the product of a careless fling between a demon and the Egyptian goddess Sekhmet.)
* InvoluntaryShapeshifting: The EvilPlan of the villain in "Diary of a Demon Exchange Student" includes forcibly causing demons in the mortal world to assume their original forms.
* JustGotOutOfJail: Caitlin Myles at the beginning "The Book Jumper."
* OurDemonsAreDifferent: The protagonist of my second novel, "Diary of a Demon Exchange Student" is a demon, but she is much different than the typical image of demons. As I pointed out to someone who compared my story to ''Literature/TheScrewtapeLetters'':
-->'''Me:''' There are three key differences in the story I'm writing: 1) My demons aren't from Hell. 2) My main character, though a demon, [[DarkIsNotEvil is not evil.]] 3) My demons want to study humans, not corrupt them. They're more like scientists, acting out of a mix of academic curiosity and the desire to improve their own society.
* OurSoulsAreDifferent: In "Diary Of A Demon Exchange Student", even demons can be born with souls, though this is a rarity, only occurring in about one in one-hundred thousand demons. The main character likens it to a genetic mutation.
* PortalBook: [[PlayingWithATrope Played with]] in my current project "The Book Jumper": The main character can enter books, but the ability to do so comes from her, not from the book. To an [[{{Muggle}} ordinary human]], it would just be a book. Also, once she enters, she's stuck there until she the story in the book is resolved.
* ShoutOut: In "Diary of a Demon Exchange Student", the World Gate attendant mentions that the idea of using a mirror to travel between worlds came from [[Literature/ThroughTheLookingGlass a book in the mortal world.]]
* VoluntaryShapeshifting: Demons in "Diary of a Demon Exchange Student", though they require the aid of external magic to do so. The magic of the World Gate (a mirror that acts as a portal to the human world) also allows demons to take on a mortal form. Most demons become humans, though becoming something other than a human is allowed. Once the form is chosen, the demon is stuck with it for the duration of their stay, though they are given magic rings that temporarily restore their demonic form, in case of emergencies.
!!Some Stuff I Like

!! Things I don't like
JustinBieber - Because if people with a meidocre singing voice were meant to be stars, [[SelfDeprecation I would've been huge.]]
!! Some fan-made music video's I created.

* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-9nqZ-lOFzo Dark Cloud 2 - Livin On A Prayer]]. This one was my first. Oh, and I have my first name at the end of this one, so if you wanna know it, there it is. Also, I do know that I wrote gamestop instead of gamespot.
* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fSnn4iObzNI Death Note - Taking Back Control]]. This is my personal favorite. Enjoy.
* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kj5DQzOcAwc Naruto - Faith]]. Uses clips solely from episode one of Naruto. I had fun with this one.
* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=naagC4ITAdo Victorious - Dance Forever]] I didn't like this one as much as the others, since one of the source videos I used was really grainy and there wasn't a lot of selection either, but I couldn't bring myself to delete it.


!! Put comments and stuff here. Have fun, but please sign them.
You sound a lot like me. Maybe because of {{Asperger Syndrome}}. Tropers/RainbowDust

You sound quite different from me. I wish I had something to specialize in, but I'm just a clerk. Your tastes are different too. Officially diagnosed with AS? @/BonsaiForest\\
'''Yes. When I was six.'''

I got Aspergers too, but I'm not lucky in love or in life. But I see you like Victorious which I like too. Let me guess- you're a dude, right? Tropers/{{Arnoldmcguire335}}\\
'''Yes. I am a guy. I checked out your page, we have quite a bit in common. I see your also a fan of H20JustAddWater. I got hooked on that after I checked it out on youtube and watched all three seasons in a week and a half.'''

It's all right. We ''all'' know who you are... (as you can guess, I like to mess with {{conspiracy theorist}}s' minds. @/AmusedTroperGuy\\
'''That's okay, I'm not really a ConspiracyTheorist. I just pretend to be one for laughs. [[MindScrew Or maybe I am.]]'''

Hello, fellow Aspie. Kind of like @/RainbowDust, you do sound a lot like me. I also love ''Series/CriminalMinds''. I'm interested in pursuing a career in forensics, like working in a crime lab or something. What can you tell me about the field of forensics? --@/{{Indigo12ash}}

* AppointmentTelevision: ''Series/PrettyLittleLiars'' and ''Series/OnceUponATime''.

* MistakenForRacist: I fell victim to this at the Value Village where I work: A small African-American child was looking for his mother and a helpful customer told me that he thought he'd seen the mother head toward the front of the store with another child in tow, so I headed in that direction with the kid close behind me, looking out for any mothers with one child. Upon spotting one such woman, I asked if the child was hers. She said no and the proceeded to rail on me, saying that I shouldn't assume that she was the child's mother just because both she and the child were African-American. While I can see why she thought so, I had done nothing of the sort; in fact, I was not aware that she was African-American until she was yelling at me. I don't get paid enough to take notice of people's skin color (or their physical appearance in general, for that matter).

* BreakingTheFourthWall: The main character in "Diary of a Demon Exchange Student" addresses the reader a couple of times during the opening and occasionally leaves a footnote to explain something about demons. [[JustifiedTrope Justified]], as she's using a magic crystal to record her words, thoughts, and actions as the events of the story unfold around her. (I couldn't come up with a way to mention this in the actual story without weakening the writing, but the term "thoughts" is expanded to include her awareness of things that are happening, which is why the sensations she experiences and the actions of other people are also recorded. Consider that my WordOfGod on the matter.)

* FootnoteFever: In "Diary of a Demon Exchange Student". See BreakingTheFourthWall.

* NiceHat: I have handmade replica of Naoto's hat from ''VideoGame/{{Persona 4}}
