3	[[{{Tropers.FringeBenefits}} Fringe Benefits]], also known variously as [[http://tasakeru.com BHS]], [[http://bhsdesk.deviantart.com bhsdesk]], and Socko the Happy Turtle (only on Tuesdays), is a geek, NightmareFetishist, and Japanese culture enthusiast with a weird sense of humor who lives somewhere in Virginia. [[TVTropesWillRuinYourLife TVTropes has ruined his life on more than one occasion.]] He's an absolutely hopeless SerialTweaker, for one thing. He created the pages ''Literature/{{Tasakeru}}'', ThatOneAchievement, ''[[FanFic/StarsAbove Stars Above]]'', ''Literature/{{Nil}}'', ''[[FanFic/MyLittleUnicorn My Little Unicorn]]'', ''FanFic/{{Respect}}'', ''Anime/HappinessChargePrettyCure'', ''FanFic/TheChangelingOfTheGuard'', and ''FanFic/ShatteredSkiesTheMorningLights''.

6	In Fall 2011, he entered the wonderful and terrifying world of FanFiction ([==]'''[[ScareChord DRAMATIC CHORD]]'''[==]) with his first serious effort, ''[[FanFic/StarsAbove Stars Above]]''. Co-written by fellow Onioneer and co-conspirator {{@/Forzare}} and loosely based on a long-running RP hosted on the TVTropes forums, ''Stars Above'' is a Franchise/MadokaMagica / Manga/LuckyStar CrossOver fic, the first of its kind, and is [[PrecisionFStrike fucking]] [[RuleOfCool awesome]], in his [[BlatantLies totally unbiased]] opinion. He also wrote another CrossOver called ''FanFic/{{Respect}}'', and a third called ''FanFic/ShatteredSkiesTheMorningLights'', currently in progress. His FF.net page can be found [[http://www.fanfiction.net/u/3237916/ here]], while his [[Website/ArchiveOfOurOwn AO3]] page is [[https://archiveofourown.org/users/BHS here]].

8	He wants to make this perfectly clear, with no possibility of misunderstanding: '''BHS ''' '''''loves''''' '''[[Anime/PrettyCure Precure]]'''. BHS has been a devoted follower of the franchise for over a decade, has an extensive collection of Precure merchandise, and eagerly watches new episodes every week. What happens to Precure in BHS's stories happens because of the RuleOfDrama, not because of a personal vendetta.

10	In 2017, he began a Website/YouTube review series called ''[[https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLvXaLTIONlEwFDJ0mwk8GUHWwoztfVe46 Silent InvenTOYry]]'', covering Japanese action figures, model kits, and collectables. [[CaptainObvious As its title implies]], the series is completely dialogue-free, and the reviews are done via captions, music, sound effects, and snark. The series lasted slightly over two years.
11
12	He finally got tired of the many [[BlatantLies ridiculous things]] he wrote about himself in previous edits of this page, and decided to make it slightly more coherent.
13
14	His interests also encompass multiple sci-fi, fantasy, and comedy series, and [[ThirdPersonPerson writing about himself in third person.]]

129	!!Vandalism Section, because everyone else has one
130	* The bare vandalism section is a disgrace. I have come to fix it! [[{{Tropers.Takwin}} -Takwin]]
131	* Aww, no adorable picture for me to replycomment on. That should be fixed. :) [[{{Tropers.Amarys}} -Amarys]]
132	** Consider it fixed! [[{{Tropers.FringeBenefits}} -Fringe Benefits]]
133	*** Those goggles do nothing. [[{{Tropers.Amarys}} -Amarys]]
134	* Holy fuck, thanks, Fringe! I guess I should try some of your stuff too. Oh, it'll take 2 days before I can publish it on FictionPress. ARSE> [[{{Tropers.Sen}} -Sen]]
135	** Right, I've published it. Can I still blame you for getting me into this if it goes wrong? hahahaha -{{Tropers/Sen}}
136	* I find the picture outstandingly appropriate. Tropers/RainbowDust
137	* Alright, another fan of The Beatles. They're the greatest band ever, am I right? I also think the picture (of you, I'm guessing) on your page is really great. I think that with the right hairstyle, you (again, I'm guessing) could look just like Dr. Emmett "Doc" Brown from the BackToTheFuture trilogy. Feel free to visit my Troper page and PLEASE try to leave a nice comment about it for me OK? Life is better with friends, not enemies. - {{Tropers/AlBundyFan365}}
138	* gasp Dr. Horrible! :D - {{Tropers/MsieurLapin}}
139	** [[EvilLaugh Waaaah ha ha ha ha ha! WaaAAahaaHAAAA! HaaAAAaaaAH!]] So that's... coming along.
140	* I haven't spoken to you through this manner for a while, but I wanted to tell you about something I found to be really great. If you like watching ChrisPine as Captain Kirk in ''[[StarTrekXI Star Trek (2009)]]'', then I recommend watching him in ''{{Unstoppable}}''. I saw it in the movie theater and I think Chris Pine did well as one of the main characters. Of course, DenzelWashington was fantastic, too. Overall, I thought the film had been ''very'' intense most of the time and the action made my blood pulse rise up. If you do manage to watch this film, please inform me on my Contributor page if you liked anything about it. (8^) - Tropers/{{AlBundyFan365}}
141	** You misspelled ''{{Unstoppable}}'' as "Unbreakable" on my page but that's okay. I know what you meant to say so I fixed it. (8^) - Tropers/{{AlBundyFan365}}
142	* Since you vandalized my page, I feel obligated to vandalize back. I am insanely jealous of your awesome goggles. - Tropers/SerenitySquid
143	** FEAR THE GOGGLES OF AWESOMENESS.
144	*** I'm going to steal them while you sleep. - SangoOfTheDead
145	*** You can have my goggles when you pry them out of my cold, dead hands!
146	* You are the only person to ever cosplay that immeadiately made me say "That is AWESOME". - Tropers/OOZE
147	* I am watching your ''every move'', also cookies. - {{Tropers/Rareitor}}
148	** YOU CANNOT HAVE MY COOKIES.
149	*** ONOMNOMNOMNOMNOMNOMNOM!
150	*** NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, MY COOKIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES...!
151	*** Goddammit Pinky.
152	* Huge goggles: one of the first signals of a mad scientist in making. - @/AmusedTroperGuy
153	* Did you hear about what Gregg Williams did from 2009-2011 when he was with the New Orleans Saints? I don't like what he did at all. - Tropers/{{AlBundyFan365}}
154	** Uh, no. I don't follow sports. Like, at all.
