1 | [=MonkeyPhysics=] was named for the term he and his brother came up with to describe the various ways SuperMonkeyBall would make the late Isaac Newton [[{{Angrish}} incoherent with rage]] - which, independent of himself or his sibling, has already made it on to [[http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=monkey+physics other areas of the Internet]]. Consequently, [=MonkeyPhysics=] curses "Stuart J". |

3 | 25-year-old science nerd and jazz pianist/saxophonist, [[TopGear loves]] [[BatmanArkhamAsylum to]] [[MassEffect pothole]] [[BlackBooks anything]] [[RedDwarf and]] [[BrainBleach everything]] [[EightBitTheater to]] [[VGCats his]] [[TheGuardsMustBeCrazy favourite]] [[OverlyLongGag pages]]. |
4 | |
5 | Tropes present in his being: |
6 | * {{Angrish}}: Happens a lot. His playthrough of IWannaBeTheGuy was inundated with incoherent screaming. |
7 | * AttentionDeficitOohShiny: Not actually ADD or ADHD, just easily sidetracked. |
8 | * BerserkButton: "You play an instrument? You're so ''lucky''!" |
9 | * BiTheWay: More like 80:20 straight:gay, but still applies. Kind of. |
10 | * BlindingBangs: First thing in the morning. |
11 | * BrainBleach: Let's just say he has poor choice in housemates. |
12 | * BriefAccentImitation: All the time. |
13 | * BrilliantButLazy: Supposedly. |
14 | * BuffySpeak: All the... er... what's the word? You know what I mean.. clocks... sundials... TIME! |
15 | * CarpetOfVirility: Subverted. He's got the carpet, but isn't particularly manly. |
16 | * CloudCuckoolander: At least among his lab group. Frequently forgets where he is, what he was doing, why he's holding a piece of filter paper... |
17 | ** Acts like this around his family, too. |
18 | ** And now, actively giving free rein to cuckoolanderism in his capacity as a "poor man's BillNyeTheScienceGuy just without the camera... or the funding... or the accent... or most of the awesome... but SCIENCE! Science is a thing I do! I'm sorry, I've forgotten the question. Who are you again?" |
19 | * CrowningMomentOfAwesome (sort of): Was at a "Saxophone Day" at a specialist music university, and wandered into a jazz improvisation workshop. After about an hour of failing to produce anything even vaguely noteworthy, he managed to pull a solo [[AssPull out of his backside]] that was later described by the tutor (who'd been rather... unafraid to criticise) as "excellent". Cue a gaggle of vaguely-cliquey students asking why they hadn't seen him before, assuming he was also studying there. The looks on their faces when he told them he was a chemistry major... |
20 | * CutHisHeartOutWithASpoon: A common result of pressing his BerserkButton. |
21 | * DamnYouMuscleMemory: Ever try moving from a keyboard with non-weighted keys to a full-blown piano (or vice versa)? Owie! |
22 | * DeadpanSnarker: To his friends. When hanging out with a few former housemates he quickly becomes the OnlySaneMan complete with FacePalm, YouKeepUsingThatWord, FlatWhat and occasional SarcasmFailure. |
23 | * DitzyGenius: According to his mates, anyway. |
24 | * ForgetsToEat: Not as a result of being intensely focused on something, more like his brain being, er, [[IncrediblyLamePun out to lunch]]. |
25 | * GuiltComplex: Keeps him in NeutralGood territory. |
26 | * IWasToldThereWouldBeCake: Practically a RunningGag. |
27 | * JustAStupidAccent: It lives in a triangle of sorts - the corners are rural Galway, relatively generic Oop North and suburban New South Wales. It likes to wander around the triangle a lot. |
28 | * MadScientist: Sort of. Is both a scientist and slightly mad, but doesn't fit the trope. |
29 | * MotorMouth: When talking science. |
30 | * MustHaveCaffeine |
31 | * NeutralGood - or at least trying to be. |
32 | * NiceHat: Two - a dark brown fedora and a white trilby. |
33 | * ScreamsLikeALittleGirl |
34 | * SidetrackedByTheAnalogy: Side...tracked? Am I a train? I don't think I'm a train... |
35 | * SpellMyNameWithAnS: Well, a Y. |
36 | * [[WhiteHairedPrettyBoy White Haired Not Particularly Pretty Boy]]: Sort of. Greying rather worryingly quickly. |
37 | * WideEyedIdealist on a good day. As an example, he decided to add this as the [[SugarWiki/MostTriumphantExample Most Triumphant Example]] of [[SoCoolItsAwesome So Cool It's Awesome]]: |
38 | -->You. Every last one of you. Nothing more than an organised mass of molecules, and, well, just look at you! You're commanding countless electrons just reading this entry. You've taken a collection of noises and squiggles and arranged them into something with definite meaning. You can think, you can reason, you can imagine, you can dream - and I'm honoured to share this universe with you. |
