Line #1 Tropers/MonSolo


1	I'm an American troper. When I'm not on Tropes, I like to knit and crochet. I graduated from college last year, and am currently trying to piece together full-time employment from several part-time jobs.

3	Tropes that apply to me/my life:
4	* AbsentMindedProfessor: a rare female version.
5	* AspergerSyndrome: my brother has it, and I had a good friend in elementary school with AS too. I won't claim that this makes me an expert on autism, but I do think that my life is richer for having known people whose brains are wired a little differently.
6	* BerserkButton: don't you dare make fun of my brother.
7	* {{Bookworm}}: sadly of the [[BadassBookworm non-badass]] variety.
8	* BornInTheWrongCentury: or, more specifically, the wrong decade. I think I'd do pretty well in TheSixties.
9	* BrilliantButLazy: ''ridiculously'' lazy, unfortunately.
10	* CloudCuckoolander
11	* DaydreamBeliever: including the belief, up until high school, that ''ToyStory'' was theoretically possible.
12	* DoesNotUnderstandSarcasm: my brother (though it's really more Does Not ''Tolerate'' Sarcasm)
13	* GrammarNazi: a bit. RougeAnglesOfSatin mistakes tend to make me chuckle.
14	* GiveGeeksAChance: Best thing I ever did. I joined a dating website for geeks, and met the love of my life. We trade StarWars jokes back and forth, created a [[MirrorUniverse bizarro alternate universe]] for Next Gen where Picard is an irritable jerk obsessed with killing [[TheWesley Wesley]], and run our own MST commentary on all the movies we watch. My life is pretty awesome.
15	* IncrediblyLamePun: both my dad and my boyfriend are this personified; my brother and I inherited it from Dad. I shudder to think what ''my'' kids will be like one day...
16	* TheMovieBuff
17	* NerdGlasses
18	* NeverHeardThatOneBefore: I'm five foot two. Thank you ''[[SarcasmMode ever so much]]'' for pointing out that I am short. I haven't forgotten.
19	* ProudToBeAGeek (and a [[http://nerdfighters.ning.com/ Nerdfighter!]])
20	* SlidingScaleOfIdealismVsCynicism: In case you couldn't tell, I tend towards the "idealism" side.
21
