** The protagonist also did this to a different friend when he was explaining what a bear (GLBT definition) is[[hottip:* :For those who don't know, a bear is a gay man who is hairy (can come in the form of body hair and/or a beard) and big, which can mean either muscular, fat, or both]]. The conversation went like this, and for the record, this friend is straight, and also loves Latin (which could explain the reaction):

This troper is a member of [[SocietyToPreventOverlyOriginalNames SPOON]]. When he isn't browsing Tv Tropes, he enjoys video games, biking, walking, drumming, blogging, mathematics, philosophy, and [[LampshadeHanging talking about himself]] [[ThirdPersonPerson in the third person]]. He also spends way too much time adding tropes that apply to himself to this page (as you shall see).

* BlueFever: After editing on this wiki for so long, this troper started puting PotHoles into his posts on forums (rather than leaving the link in parentheses, like he used to) and does it more frequently on his blog, as well.
* DriveByUpdater: Though this troper has quite a few pages he contributes to consistently, he'll often go to the page of a work immediately after reading/watching it, make a few edits, and never go there again.

* AngstAversion: This trope is part of the reason the protagonist has a strong tendency to avoid fictional works and mostly watches things he has already seen. With the very few exceptions of when it is done well (see TearJerker), he honestly hates the way that good fiction can get him emotionally invested in the story and then bring up such undesirable emotions in him like frustration, anger, sadness, fear, etc. (Which may explain why he likes comedies so much) This partly stems from his desire to be the greatest influence on his own emotions, and experiencing emotions because a piece of fiction brought them up in him takes that control away from him. This trope tends to apply generally to his life, as well, to a great extent, for the protagonist hates getting emotionally involved in things he has no control over and does his damnedest not to. The proceedings and endings of fictional stories certainly fit in that category; the only thing he can control is whether he reads/watches media or not, so he often chooses not to. That's also his reason for avoiding sports team fandom, following and involving himself in politics, news of what is going on in the world, and other such things.

This trope is such a bit part of the way the protagonist lives his life that he once wrote a thirteen paragraph long note on {{Facebook}} about it and how it affects his life.
