Line #3 Tropers/Essex


1	Describe {{Essex}} here.
2
3	Haven't updated this in the longest time...
4
5	A guy from some small-time place known as Whittier, CA (moved to ancestral roots in Manila). Don't ask where that is, use GoogleEarth. 26, still doesn't drive, and a small-time business owner. It's not much (yet), but it pays the bills.
6
7	With my buddy, Fearow's Keeper (not a troper), attempted to work on a project tentatively called ''DarthWiki/OurParadise'', a series of LightNovels set in a sort-of-kind-of MedievalEuropeanFantasy world. With FK ceasing to be responsive (work, I believe), I think it's time to drop this ball and move on.
8
9	I have a knack for PlayByPostGames. If anybody has any recommends, just drop an email at kdlazales@gmail.com.
10
11	Launched SinisterSilhouettes. Took a few months, but it was worth it.
12
13	Originally YKTTW'd MajorlyAwesome. Someone else launched it. I didn't notice. But well, I can at least take credit for YKTTWing it... right?
14
15	As I am just too damn lazy to put down a list of my favorite tropes, I'll just insert one here once in awhile, starting with:
16	* SoundtrackDissonance
17	* ObfuscatingStupidity
18	* PoweredArmor
19	* KillSat
20	* TheFederation
21	* OminousLatinChanting
22	* OminousPipeOrgan
23	* EldritchAbomination
24	* TomeOfEldritchLore
25	* GoMadFromTheRevelation
26	* CosmicHorror
27	* ThingsManWasNotMeantToKnow
28	* AlienGeometries
29	* TheScottishTrope
30	* LittleMissBadass
31	* EnfanteTerrible
32	* TykeBomb
33	* ChildSoldiers
34	* SuperSoldier
35
36	Same goes for favorite anime/things, so in the meantime, I'll start with maybe three...
37	* ''SuzumiyaHaruhi'' (Yes, despite my condition (see below), I like this, mostly because I looked it up on a request to research, by a skeptic)
38	* ''GunslingerGirl''
39	* ''FateStayNight''
40	* ''LuckyStar''
41	* ''VanDread''
42	* ''FullMetalAlchemistBrotherhood''
43	* ''{{Saiyuki}}''
44	* ''{{Nanoha}}'' (Same skeptic tells me he was pimping this to me. Which is odd, since the only one I recall him pimping is ''GurrenLagann'')
45	* ''GateKeepers''
46	* ''{{Noir}}''
47	* ''JigokuShoujo''
48	* ''StarshipTroopers'' (both the first movie ''and'' the book, ''and'' the series, ''and'' the OVA (barring the lame [[TheEighties Eighties]] music), ''and'' the {{RTS}} (yes, it has an RTS))
49	* ''{{Tsukihime}}'' (the ''game''. [[DisContinuity There is no anime with that title]])
50	* ''StarCraft''
51	* ''CommandAndConquer''
52	* TomClancy
53	* StephenKing
54	* HPLovecraft
55	* ''StarWars'' (I am a self-proclaimed [[CarrierBattleship Star Destroyer]] geek)
56	* ''{{Halo}}''
57	* ''RaveMaster''
58	* ''DeathNote''
59	* ''MeltyBlood''
60	* ''AngelNotes''
61	* ''GurrenLagann''
62	* ''AttackOnTitan''
63	* ''PuellaMagiMadokaMagica''. I have not yet seen Rebellion. Somebody spoiled [[spoiler:Akuma Homura]] to me. I have still yet to watch Rebellion. Waiting for the English dub because I am too lazy to read subs. Please do not spoil me any further.
64
65	Anime/things on my 'to watch/read/etc list':
66	* ''{{Hellsing}}''
67	* ''{{Narutaru}}''
68	* ''HidamariSketch''
69	* ''KamenNoMaidGuy''

90	* ''{{Onidere}}''
91	* ''KaraNoKyoukai''
92	* ''KillLaKill''
93
94	I suffer from a very ''odd'' case of HypeAversion. In particular, it doesn't matter how many times something is pimped on TVTropes. If it's generally good and garners my interest, I'll probably watch it when I have the time. Or if somebody suggests ONCE that I check it out.
95
96	However, if somebody I know discusses it with me more than once without me having see it yet, pimps it to me more than once, or outright acts like an [[FanDumb insufferably annoying]] FanBoy / FanGirl of it in my presence, then the chances of me checking it out have just gone from 90% to 0%.
97
98	I don't give a flying [[GoshDangItToHeck frag]] if you think I'm going to like it, or how awesome you think it is. Hell, I don't give a flying frag how awesome ''I'm'' going to think it is should I actually watch it. [[ThisIsSPARTA I'm. Not. Touching. It.]]
99
100	Things that have been unfortunately (I say unfortunately, because I'm sure they're genuinely good) scarred by my particular case of HypeAversion:
101
102	* ''{{Evangelion}}'' (Somebody wasted over an hour of my time sharing his EpilepticTrees that Haruhi is a remake/intentional parallel of Eva, amongst other plants based on that tree. I don't ''care''.)
103	* ''DarkerThanBlack'' (FanBoy-ism. No offense, dude, but I honestly couldn't (and still can't) stand it.)
104	* ''FullMetalPanic'' (repetitive pimping by one person, being forced to watch at least two Fumoffu episodes, and multiple discussions in my presence by others)
105	* ''HayateTheCombatButler'' (I would have finished it, but ''[[EtTuBrute my own brother]]'' watching the rest before I did and pimping it to me ''repetitively'' in FanBoy fashion sealed its fate)
106	* ''ShinMegamiTensei'', ''{{Persona 3}}'', in particular (Would you [[AC:[[FanDumb PLEASE STOP KISSING ITS ASS WHEN I'M AROUND]]]]? My eyes are ''bleeding''.)
107	* Some portions of the ''NasuVerse'' (He wouldn't... stop... talking... about... it...)
108
109
110	Songs that are currently[[EarWorm burrowed into my brain like worms]] and compel me to play them over and over:
111
112	* OP Songs by LiSA for: ''Fate/Zero'', ''IlSolePenetraLeIllusioni'', and ''SwordArtOnline''.
113	* Pre-Deployment Theme from ''XCOMEnemeyUnknown''
114	* The Mass Effect Theme
