11 | Back in university one of my classmates was a huge Harry Potter fan. So obviously we had the Houses discussion. (She's a 'Puff.) |
12 | -->'''Her:''' Which House are you? |
13 | -->'''Me:''' Ravenclaw. |
14 | -->'''Her:''' This is so fucking obvious. |

17 | %%[[folder:Trivia]] |
18 | %%* I got my handle from the rather insignificant Franchise/YuGiOh card ''[[http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Des_Dendle Des Dendle]]''. |
19 | %%* I am: |
20 | %%** Male. |
21 | %%** A drinker of good tea. Especially Earl Grey. |
22 | %%[[/folder]] |
23 | %% |
24 | %%[[folder:This Troper dislikes the following things]] |
25 | %%* WantonCrueltyToTheCommonComma and its {{Subtrope}}s: RougeAnglesOfSatin, NoPunctuationPeriod and [[UsefulNotes/{{Tenses}} How Do I Used Tense]]. |
26 | %%* {{Obstructive Bureaucrat}}s. |
27 | %%* EveryoneIsJesusInPurgatory (excessive symbolism counts, too). |
28 | %%[[/folder]] |
29 | %% |
30 | %%[[folder:Tropes that that guy, desdendelle, thinks he's an example of]] |
31 | %%* [[UsefulNotes/{{Agnosticism}} Agnostic]]: of the 'weak agnostic atheist' variation. It basically means the following: |
32 | %%# I don't know whether God(s) exist, or not. |
33 | %%# I tend to think[[note]] and assume, due to my philosophy[[/note]] that no such being exists. |
34 | %%# I think that it is possible to know whether God(s) exist, unless it's proven otherwise. |
35 | %%* [[CharacterAlignment Alignment Tropes]]: TrueNeutral with heavy shades of LawfulGood. |
36 | %%* AltumVidetur: Oh so very much. Also with English, since it isn't my mother tongue. |
37 | %%* BileFascination: That's why I became [[WebOriginal/ProtectorsOfThePlotContinuum PPCer]] and continue to read badfic. |
38 | %%* BlueAndOrangeMorality: Kind of given, since my moral code is an odd mix of Stoicism, Kantian imperatives, and Cartesian epistemology. Despite my LawfulGood tendencies. |
39 | %%* {{Bookworm}}: Yep! Gimme those books, gimme! |
40 | %%* BrilliantButLazy: I am gifted (135+ IQ), but incredibly lazy. |
41 | %%* CantHoldHisLiquor: I can't drink more than half a pint of Guinness, and Saké makes me tipsy. |
42 | %%* CaptainObvious: Obviously (and annoyingly, to my RL friends) enough. |
43 | %%* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: I kinda tend to miss the obvious sometimes. |
44 | %%* {{Crossplayer}}: I have more female avatars than male ones. My favourite Warframe is [[Characters/WarframeTenno Banshee]]. |
45 | %%* DeadpanSnarker: Who isn't? |
46 | %%* EncyclopaedicKnowledge: Due to {{Bookworm}}ness. |
47 | %%* FoodTropes: |
48 | %%** [[ComfortFood Comfort Drink]]: Good Earl Grey tea. |
49 | %%** [[DoesNotLikeSpam Does Not Like Coriander]]: Or parsley. |
50 | %%** DrinkOrder: Tea. To the point where it became a running gag among my friends. |
51 | %%* GlassesPull: {{Subverted|Trope}}. I sometimes take my glasses off before (or after) I speak, but it has no meaning whatsoever. |
52 | %%* GoodCannotComprehendEvil: Sort of; I really can't understand what motivates people to be malicious (insert standard "too many premises" disclaimer here). |
53 | %%* GrammarPolice: I'm a stickler for correct [=SPaG=]. |
54 | %%* [[HatesEveryoneEqually Hates Every Organised Religion Equally]]: More or less. |
55 | %%* HonestyIsTheBestPolicy: I fully believe in this. |
56 | %%* HypeAversion: [[WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic Ponies]]. |
57 | %%* IconicItem: A longcoat that, unfortunately, makes me look like a [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haredi_Judaism Haredi.]] |
58 | %%* {{Nerd}} |
59 | %%** GeekPhysiques: Of the thin, muscle-less variety. |
60 | %%** ProudToBeANerd: Because I am what am and I don't plan on changing because others don't understand that. |
61 | %%* NinjaEditor: If I spot a typo in my posts, I usually go back and fix it as soon as I see it. |
62 | %%* NonActionGuy: Was a jobnik in the army, am a bureaucrat on the side while in uni... |
63 | %%* NotAMorningPerson: Perpetually grumpy in mornings. Not properly awake till around 0900 and a cup (preferably more) of tea. |
64 | %%%%* OrdinaryHighSchoolStudent: Subverted in the past; while I was a high-school student, I wasn't really ordinary (philosophising, ho!). |
65 | %%* SawStarWarsTwentySevenTimes: I have a tendency to recycle books, movies and the like. |
66 | %%* SophisticatedAsHell: Even more evident when I speak Hebrew. |
67 | %%* UsefulNotes/TheEnneagram A Four. Apparently. |
68 | %%* ThePhilosopher: FWIW it's what I study in university. |
69 | %%* TheSouthpaw: Mostly. |
70 | %%* TheStoic: Literally. |
71 | %%** NotSoStoic: But not perfectly. |
72 | %%* TheQuietOne: Until the ice breaks, that is, and sometimes even after that; if I have nothing to say I will shut up. |
73 | %%* [[AdjustingYourGlasses Type 2/type 3 Glasses Adjuster.]] |
74 | %%* WhatTheHellIsThatAccent: People can't pin down my accent, but most think I was born in Britain or something. |
75 | %%* WritingByTheSeatOfYourPants: Another bad habit I'm trying to get rid of. |
76 | %%* YoungerThanTheyLook: Take my word on it. People tend to think that I'm ten years older than my true age, probably because of the beard, coat and (sometimes) potted-plant-on-the-head. |
