[[folder:Tropes that currently apply to me]]

* {{Angrish}}: My grammar becomes worse when I am angry.
* AttentionDeficitOohShiny: Not to a point of disability or anything, but I'm easily distracted.
* BerserkButton: Well, more like Irritation Button, but...
** Having my words distorted.
** People criticizing things they know nothing about. This is particularly evident with martial arts and theology.
** Ad hominem.
** Pretentious semantics
** Gratuitous zaniness
** Gratutious fanservice
** Obvious and overused references (e.g. '''FALCON PUNCH!''', '''WHO THE HELL DO YOU THINK I AM?!''', to name a few)
** Do not ever tell me that I am missing out. What do you my know about my preference?
** Broad and worthless advices, like "It is the execution that matters."
* [[BoredWithInsanity Bored with Zaniness]]
* BornLucky: Both of my parents are university professors, which is a pretty high paying job in South Korea. Because I also never asked much, money has never been a problem.
* ConstantlyCurious: I get fascinated easily. Like I said, I love learning new things.
* EverybodyHatesMathematics: I am very slowly ''averting'' this.
* TheFettered: I seek to be a man of principle and I believe that conditional principle is no principle at all. That said, I try to follow a principle that can be applied to all situations.
* HairTriggerTemper: I am very, very, very easily irritated. That said, see BerserkButton.
* [[OrderVersusChaos Order]]
* TheSlacker: Occasionally.
* TranquilFury: I am not fond of expressing negative expressions. It seems, however, that it does not do much good to my mental health.
* WellDoneSonGuy: Parental approval is important to me.

[[folder:Media I enjoy]]

[[AC:Anime and Manga]]

* ''Anime/AngelBeats'' - It is such a shame that it didn't have enough episodes...
* ''Manga/{{ARIA}}''
* '''''Manga/AttackOnTitan''''' - The best anime of 2010s, period.
* ''Manga/AzumangaDaioh''
* ''Manga/{{Blame}}''
* ''Film/FiveCentimetersPerSecond''
* '''''Manga/FullmetalAlchemist''''' - THE best shonen manga, EVER.
** High five, brother!!! -@/{{eternal noob}}
** Let us drink milk to that! (it is not my [[{{Manga/SaintSeiya}} favorite]] but i do think it is the best. -@/{{Saint Deltora}}
* ''Manga/HajimeNoIppo''
* Anything by HayaoMiyazaki (the ones that I've watched, at least)
** ''Anime/CastleInTheSky''
** ''Anime/HowlsMovingCastle''
** ''Anime/MyNeighborTotoro''
** ''Anime/PrincessMononoke''
** ''Anime/SpiritedAway''
* ''Manga/{{Monster}}''
* ''Manga/{{Parasyte}}''
* ''Anime/{{Persona 4}}''
* ''Manga/SilverSpoon''
* ''Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann''
* ''Manga/{{Yotsuba}}''

[[AC:Film]]

* ''BlackHawkDown''
* ''Film/TheBourneSeries'' - This movie shows what ''real'' action is.
* ''Film/TheDarkKnight''
* ''Main/TheDeparted''
* ''Film/ForrestGump''
* ''Film/TheGodfather''
* ''Film/GranTorino''
* ''Film/{{Inception}}'' - Pure genius.
* ''OngBak'' - The craziest and the most explosive (not literally) martial arts movie ever.
* ''{{Once}}''
* '''''Film/TheShawshankRedemption''''' - It has to be the most beautiful movie I have ever seen.
* ''TaxiDriver''

[[AC:Literature]]

* ''Literature/TheAeneid''
* ''Literature/TheAlchemist''
* ''Literature/AnimalFarm'' - Orwell is a genius, that is all I can say.
* ''Literature/{{Beowulf}}''
* ''Literature/TheBible'' - Yes, I finished the whole book.
* ''Literature/CrimeAndPunishment''
* ''GenerationKill'' - Haven't finished the TV series yet.
* ''TheLittlePrince''
* ''Literature/TheMetamorphoses''
* ''Literature/OfMiceAndMen'' - Could have used a little bit happier ending, though. Then again, perhaps that is why it gave me such a strong impression.
* ''Literature/SirGawainAndTheGreenKnight''
* ''Literature/TheTrojanCycle''
** ''Literature/TheIliad'' - There is an unbelievable amount of padding and ValuesDissonance can be really jarring. That said, it has ''wonderful'' description. This pertains Richmond Lattimore's translation.
** ''Literature/TheOdyssey'' - Robert Fagles translation. This is an infinite improvement over the Iliad; there are so many more diverse events going around here. The words are flowing and it has some really excellent vocabulary, descriptions, and dialogues. ValuesDissonance may kick in, but other than this is just excellent.

Hello.

* [[BoredWithInsanity Bored with Zaniness]]

* BornLucky: Both of my parents are university professors, which is a pretty high paying job in South Korea. Because I also never asked much, money has never been a problem.
* ConstantlyCurious: I get fascinated easily. Like I said, I love learning new things.
* EverybodyHatesMathematics: I am very slowly ''averting'' this.
* TheFettered: I seek to be a man of principle and I believe that conditional principle is no principle at all. That said, I try to follow a principle that can be applied to all situations.
* HairTriggerTemper: I am very, very, very easily irritated. That said, see BerserkButton.
* [[BerserkButton Irritation Button:]] I try to not to have a BerserkButton; going berserk at anything is not something I find virtuous. If something is really infuriating, then a cool head is required. That said:

* ''Literature/TheBible'' - There is a lot in there.

* ''Literature/TheMetamorphoses''

* Anything by HayaoMiyazaki (one that I watched, at least)

* ''Literature/BooksOfKings''

* Literature/TheAeneid
