1Hello, 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.

5UPDATE: 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
9Film
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
17Internet
18
19* Wiki/TVTropes, duh.
20
21Literature
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
29Live-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
38Newspaper Comics
39
40* ''ComicStrip/CalvinAndHobbes''. (I am the person who is responsible for the FuzzTherapy page.)
41* ''ComicStrip/ShermansLagoon''
42
43Western 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.
