1 | Hello, I am Banana Pancakes. |
2 | |
3 | [[NonIndicativeName Despite the handle]], I’m not very fond of (raw) bananas—but I do love celery, cucumbers, broccoli, cheese, and Kalamata olives.[[note]]Pancakes, however, are pretty good.[[/note]] I have a lot of opinions, and when I’m not avoiding people altogether, they’re begging me not to hammer my opinions home. |

5 | UPDATE: As of May 2013, I no longer run from bananas on sight. It might have had something to do with circumstances that forced me to survive on two bananas and a box of Raisin Bran in a hotel room for a week. |

7 | !!What I Like: |
8 | |
9 | Film |
10 | |
11 | * In general, a lot of documentaries. The apex of the genre is definitely ''[[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reel_Injun Reel Injun]]''. |
12 | * ''Film/AllThePresidentsMen'' |
13 | * ''Film/{{Gravity}}'' |
14 | * ''Film/GroundhogDay'' |
15 | * ''Film/{{Serenity}}'' |
16 | |
17 | Internet |
18 | |
19 | * Wiki/TVTropes, duh. |
20 | |
21 | Literature |
22 | |
23 | * ''Literature/{{Fahrenheit 451}}'' |
24 | * ''Literature/GreatExpectations'' |
25 | * ''Literature/HarryPotter'' (the [[Film/HarryPotter movies]]—particularly 4 through 8—somewhat less so) |
26 | * ''Literature/LifeOfPi'' |
27 | * ''Literature/ThePillarsOfTheEarth'' |
28 | |
29 | Live-Action TV |
30 | |
31 | * ''Series/ArrestedDevelopment'' |
32 | * ''Series/{{Community}}'' |
33 | * ''Series/CornerGas'' |
34 | * ''Series/{{Firefly}}''[[note]][[SugarWiki/TVTropesWillEnhanceYourLife I would never have heard of it if not for TV Tropes]]![[/note]] |
35 | * ''Series/TheFollowing'' |
36 | * ''Series/InSecurity'' was a really good show, at least in its first season; I only got to see two episodes in the second season and it felt horribly different, so maybe it was good that they cancelled it … |
37 | |
38 | Newspaper Comics |
39 | |
40 | * ''ComicStrip/CalvinAndHobbes''. (I am the person who is responsible for the FuzzTherapy page.) |
41 | * ''ComicStrip/ShermansLagoon'' |
42 | |
43 | Western Animation |
44 | |
45 | * ''WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes'' |
46 | * ''WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons'' |
47 | |
48 | !!What I Don’t: |
49 | |
50 | * Most video games. |
51 | * ''Film/{{Eragon}}'', particularly as I was then quite fond of [[Literature/InheritanceCycle the books]]. |
52 | * ''ComicStrip/GetFuzzy'' |
53 | * ''Film/SchoolOfRock'', surprisingly enough.[[note]]I ''used'' to think it was funny, but the stunning magnitude of the IdiotPlot few people seem to notice turned me off.[[/note]] |
54 | * ''Film/TheSerpentAndTheRainbow'' |
55 | * ''Film/SuckerPunch'' |
56 | * ''Film/{{Waterworld}}'' |
57 | * ''WesternAnimation/WoodyWoodpecker'' |
58 | |
59 | !!Tropes relevant in my life: |
60 | |
61 | * TheBGrade: Having scored at least 90 on every math test I wrote clear though Grade 9, I was appalled to get an 84 on a similar test in Grade 10. |
62 | * CanadaEh: I hail from Winnipeg—it used to be the UsefulNotes/{{Chicago}} of Canada, but now we conform to a more UsefulNotes/{{Cleveland}} / UsefulNotes/{{Detroit}}-like stereotype. Given that Sam Katz is our very own MayorPain (of, seemingly, both the malevolent ''and'' inept varieties!), that distinction looks secure for approximately the next quarter-century. |
63 | * CloudCuckoolander |
64 | * FourTemperamentEnsemble: Melancholic. |
65 | * GoodRepublicEvilEmpire: I adhere to this opinion; I want Canada to be a republic. |
66 | * GrammarNazi |
67 | * NotAMorningPerson: Downplayed. I hate getting up, but once I ''am'' up, it’s not easy to get me to go back to bed. |
68 | * SecularHero: My parents are agnostic, and my brother and I inherited that theistic outlook. |
69 | * SesquipedalianLoquaciousness: A moderately unfortunate activity which I infrequently suffer from a propensity to engage in. And yet [[{{Irony}} I am a substantial contributor to the]] LaconicWiki … |
70 | * TheSmartGuy |
71 | * TheSnarkKnight |
72 | * [[WiseBeyondTheirYears Wise Beyond My Years]]: I like to think so. |
73 | * WritersCannotDoMath: Averted. |
