* QuirkyCurls -Since I went natural./ NonconformistDyedHair -I've been wearing my hair in a kinky natural style since my late 20s, and wear it in a side-shaved style, often dyed (usually fuchsia, blue, or purple).



* TheScrappy or My Least Favorite Characters in all of Media:
** [[WesternAnimation/AmericanDad Roger the Alien]] (How did this vile beast become an EnsembleDarkhorse? I don't really see what's charming about a character who worsens the lives of everyone around him, yet they keep him around for really no reason at all. Yeah, even though [[{{Jerkass}} the rest of the Smiths aren't exactly saints]], [[ThickerThanWater I can understand why they stick together]]; why do they tolerate Roger? Even his FreudianExcuse is weak; it is possible to be [[JerkAss rude and bitchy]] without being [[TheSociopath a selfish douchebag with no conscience who ruins people's lives constantly]])
** [[WesternAnimation/FamilyGuy Peter and Lois Griffin]] (Probably Lois a bit more, because she is the perfect example of my second problem with the BumblingDad trope; see Pet Peeve Tropes below. In any event, I don't know why there seems to be an unwritten law that every protagonist in a cartoon targeted at adults needs to be an unlikable {{Jerkass}}. It's just plain unpleasant and makes me wonder [[EightDeadlyWords why I should even care about watching these people's misadventures]])
** [[WesternAnimation/{{Frozen}} Queen Elsa]] (I really wish they had made her a redeemed villain because I probably would have liked her character better. The mopey sad sack she is in the final product, who gets EasilyForgiven in the end (even though she [[KarmaHoudini barely seems to show remorse for her actions nor even WANT to try fixing them)]][[ProtagonistCenteredMorality just because she's one of the main characters]] just irritates me on every level.

I also embrace Goth music, fashion, and aesthetics, and [[FreakyIsCool love anything macabre and mysterious.]] However, the two things aren't related (I didn't even start to embrace Goth subculture until my late 20s).

* BrokenBird -Because of a past of bullying and familial abuse that ultimately led to my depression (and social isolation/trust issues), but I'm getting better.
* BunnyEarsLawyer -I talk and write about serious issues but enjoy letting my quirks shine through (for example, making a video response about the serious implications of body-shaming wherein I use stuffed animals to act out a scene between a doctor and their fat patient).
** {{Cloudcuckoolander}} -See above. I also once mused on Twitter about whether or not the eponymous Toaster from WesternAnimation/TheBraveLittleToaster was [[ViewerGenderConfusion was male or female]], only to then remark what a strange thing that was to wonder about a sentient appliance.

* DontShootTheMessage- Really, the main point of my "Intersectionality and Veganism" series; yes, a lot of [[AnimalWrongsGroup vocal vegan activists go about things in an abrasive way and aren't always that great at conveying their message effectively]], but that doesn't mean veganism is invalid.

* TermsOfEndangerment -An odd example; I tend to call people "sweet pea," "babe," "darling," or "cupcake" [[PassiveAggressiveKombat when I get annoyed with them]], usually to keep me from using harsher words (oddly enough, I also use the term "sweet pea" as a [[AffectionateNickname genuine term of affection]] for my [[CanineCompanion dogs]])

I guess I'm more annoyed that each new SadistShow (especially comedy shows targeted at adult audiences, animated and live action) that comes out tries as hard as it can to [[DarkerAndEdgier top the one before it]]. At their worst, they become so bleak and mean-spirited that it makes me wonder [[DarknessInducedAudienceApathy why I should care about the characters or the show at all]].

* DarkAndTroubledPast and FreudianExcuse -what gets me is that I don't actually think these tropes are inherently bad [[TropesAreTools (for example, they can be good for giving characters depth and making them more three-dimensional]]; Disney/BigHero6 handled this beautifully). But something that gets me is that a lot of times, they're used in place of any redeeming traits (almost as if the tragic back-story IS the redeeming trait the writer/s are going for). It comes off as slightly forced at best, and emotionally manipulative at worst. And this often leads to such characters, protagonists and antagonists alike, [[DracoInLeatherPants getting sympathetic treatment from their fans that they don't really deserve]].
