| 1 | Sharkcrap11 a random guy from Kitchener, Ontario, [[CanadaEh Canada]]. There is a consensus among people who know him in real life that he's somewhat crazy... Something [[FlipFlopOfGod he neither]] [[ShrugOfGod confirms nor denies]]. |
| 2 | |
| 3 | Was born at the tail end of the 80s, and thus is a member of Generation Y/The Millenial Generation/whatever you wanna call it, and thus grew up with a lotta the stuff that was popular in the second half of the [[TheNineties 90s]] ([[NeverLiveItDown yes, I used to listen to]] the BackstreetBoys as a kid.) |
| 4 | |
| 5 | Is a ([[MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic brony]], but he dislikes the term brony, oddly enough... |
| 6 | |
| 7 | Is a big fan of Anime and Manga, as well as SciFi and Comedy. Also, likes a lotta [[WesternAnimation cartoons]] as well. And Superhero stuff- actually, I just like a lot of stuff in general. [[TVTropesWillRuinYourLife Hence the attraction of this place]]... His favorite movie of all time, however, is ApocalypseNow. |
| 8 | |
| 9 | Has taken courses in [[RecordProducer Sound Engineering]], and is a huge fan of most types of music with the exception of most modern Pop and R&B (with LadyGaga being one of the few non-GuiltyPleasure examples of such he'll listen to), GangstaRap, Modern PopPunk and {{Emo}} (but not the older {{Music/Emo}} stuff from the 80s/90s), and some of the less melodic BlackMetal and DeathMetal bands (but the more melodic or experimental bands are often good)... In short, he listens to a LOT of music (he has over 600 CDs and the collection's still growing, though more slowly these days...). Trying to list all the bands he likes is a futile exercise- [[LongList the list]] [[OverlyLongGag just goes on and on]]... But his favorite band is PinkFloyd. |
| 10 | |
| 11 | Has his own band/music-related project(s) he's working on. [[DevelopmentHell Progress is slow]], but it is still happening... |
| 12 | |
| 13 | Hates so-called Hipsters with a passion, though he likes a lotta movies starring them (ScottPilgrim comes to mind). Also hates [[EmoTeen emo teens]], Twilight (seems like most people do) and JustinBieber (he's a disgrace to my country), but he tries not to waste time on stuff he hates. Likes all of the stuff mentioned above, and more. Reads a lot, which seems unusual for someone his age these days. [[EverybodyHatesMathematics Does not like math.]] Though his one brother does. Was raised a [[UsefulNotes/{{Mormonism}} Mormon]], though is currently (and not likely to stop being anytime soon) Agnostic. [[SlidingScaleOfLibertarianismAndAuthoritarianism Is either an Anarchist or a Left-Libertarian.]] Is a ConspiracyTheorist and a borderline CrazySurvivalist, but NOT a RightWingMilitiaFanatic, and suggesting he is such will result in [[BerserkButton pain for the one who said it]]. Is a big fan of [[AssholeVictim watching Nazis die]]. |
| 14 | |
| 15 | Loves ferrets, opossums and [[EverythingsEvenWorseWithSharks sharks]]. Admires HenryRollins greatly, for his music and for pretty much everything else but is otherwise not prone to hero worship. |

| 319 | !!Tropes that apply to this troper include: |
| 320 | |
| 321 | * AbhorrentAdmirer: has had several. Reacts in pretty much the usual way. Probably has been one at least once, too. |
| 322 | * AboveGoodAndEvil: well, not so much above it as [[BlueAndOrangeMorality more to the side]]... |
| 323 | * ActionSurvivor: managed to survive and escape a gang fight (no, he wasn't a member of either side) without getting injured and without retreating quickly. |
| 324 | * {{Adorkable}}: those few girls who have shown any interest seem to think so... He isn't so sure he likes that. |
| 325 | * AllMenArePerverts: I'm a man. I am also a pervert. No further comment... |
| 326 | * TheAloner: Prefers to spend most of his time alone. |
| 327 | * AManIsNotAVirgin |
| 328 | * AmbiguousDisorder |
| 329 | * AntiHero: Probably Type IV, though may edge off into either Type III or Type V depending on his mood and the situation. |
| 330 | * AtLeastIAdmitIt: says this a lot. He freely admits to not always living up to his own principles. Unlike all those people who don't. Saying this makes him feel more special than he probably is. |
| 331 | * AxCraxy: on very rare occasions. Watch out when it happens... |
| 332 | * BasementDweller: well, above-the-garage dweller, anyways, but the basic principle's the same. |
| 333 | * BewareTheNiceOnes: not usually too unpleasant to anyone who is nice to him, but to people who aren't... |
| 334 | * BewareTheSillyOnes |
| 335 | * BlackComedy: the best kind! |
| 336 | * BlueAndOrangeMorality |
| 337 | * BrilliantButLazy: Is rather smart (or at least, [[SmugSnake is pretty]] [[KnowNothingKnowItAll sure he is...]]). Is also rather [[TheSlacker lazy/apathetic.]] |
| 338 | * BrutalHonesty: when he's not messing with people's heads... |
| 339 | * ByronicHero: Both this and a ClassicalAntiHero. |
| 340 | * CanadaEh |
| 341 | * CatchPhrase: "If at first you don't succeed, give up or cheat". [[ChaoticNeutral Words to live by indeed...]] |
| 342 | * ChaoticNeutral |
| 343 | ** Definitely unpredictable, but not outright malicious, but not exactly hero material either. He's just trying to live his life without too much outside interference... |
| 344 | ** ChaoticStupid / StupidNeutral: Sometimes borders on one or the other (or both) of these. |
| 345 | * CharacterTics: twitchy foot when restless/bored, chin stroking, headscratching and several more. |
| 346 | * TheCharmer: when he wants to be. He isn't most of the time, though. |
| 347 | * ClassicalAntiHero: Manages to be both this (due to laziness, unambitiousness and not being [[JerkWithAHeartOfGold completely terrible) and ByronicHero (a JerkAss sometimes, sometimes brooding, a loner) |
| 348 | * {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: borders on this at times. |
| 349 | * ChildProdigy: Was very intelligent and hard-working as a kid [[TheSlacker today, on]] [[BrilliantButLazy the other hand...]]). |
| 350 | * CoatCape: wears this 90% of the time he wears a coat... |
| 351 | * ComedicSociopathy: from time to time. |
| 352 | * ConspiracyTheorist: likes talking about them and has several books on the subject, but only actually believes in a handful of the ones currently out there. Does believe in a few he's made up himself, however... |
| 353 | * ConsummateLiar: well, [[KnowNothingKnowItAll he thinks he is]]... In practice, not always. Or even all that often... |
| 354 | * CoolLoser |
| 355 | * CoolShades |
| 356 | * TheCouch: spends a goodly portion of his time here. |
| 357 | * CrazyAwesome: well, when he's awesome he is. He's just slightly crazy the resta the time. |
| 358 | * CrazySurvivalist: borderline case, as he does have a few items stored away just in case. No guns or anything like that though (I just stick to food and water). Is NOT a RightWingMilitiaFanatic though, unlike many examples of this trope. |
| 359 | * CreepyAwesome |
| 360 | * CreepyChild / CheerfulChild: was some weird combination of these when younger: was usually rather happy, but often said weird/creepy things and knew a lot about things that aren't exactly [[ChildrenAreInnocent childlike.]] |
| 361 | * CreepyShadowedUndereyes / ExhaustedEyebags: has them more or less constantly. A combination of the [[NightOwl hours he keeps]] and [[SweetTooth questionable dietary choices]]. |
| 362 | * TheCynic |
| 363 | * DeadpanSnarker |
| 364 | * DisproportionateRetribution: is a firm believer in this sometimes being the best way to prevent future conflicts. |
| 365 | * DontYouDarePityMe: Anyone who tries to show him pity gets brushed off, politely at first. If they persist, they get yelled at or hit. |
| 366 | * TheEeyore: sometimes approaches this, especially when he's in a bad mood. |
| 367 | * FunetikAksent: borderline case, as he tends to write the way he talks in real life, unless he's writing an essay or something else that requires grammatical accuracy. |
| 368 | * TheGadfly |
| 369 | * {{Geek}}: let's be honest here, he's on TVTropes. And he likes all the stuff mentioned above... |
| 370 | * TheGlassesComeOff: Used to wear NerdGlasses all the time as kid. Now only wears them when reading. Of course, his eyesight has improved as he's gotten older. |
| 371 | * GreyAndGrayMorality: his perception of the world. |
| 372 | * GuileHero |
| 373 | * GrumpyBear |
| 374 | * HatesEveryoneEqually / EqualOpportunityOffender |
| 375 | * HeavySleeper: has slept for 16 hours before. [[DownplayedTrope He doesn't recommend it]]. |
| 376 | * HeroicComedicSociopath |
| 377 | * HeroicNeutral |
| 378 | * HeterosexualLifePartner: With his buddies Alex and (to a a slightly lesser extent) Richard in real life. |
| 379 | * HiddenDepths: usually fairly cheerfully cynical, but can be rather dark and brooding sometimes and does like a lot of fairly intellectual things. Also, in spite of his (relative) lack of personal skills, is good at reading people and understanding people's motivations. |
| 380 | * {{Hipster}}: Hates them, [[YouAreWhatYouHate but may actually be one.]] [[AtLeastIAdmitIt At least]] [[HypocrisyNod he admits]] [[SelfDeprecation it.]] [[HypocriticalHumor That makes me better than those others...]] |
| 381 | * HollywoodAtheist: averted. While not exactly a free of issues, any unhappiness he may feel isn't caused by his lack of belief in a God. In fact, he's generally become much happier since he stopped caring about such things... |
| 382 | * HollywoodHomely: not completely ugly, but not exactly supermodel material either, so he fits. |
| 383 | * HollywoodDateless: notable subversion in that he actually IS dateless, and has never dated in his life. |
| 384 | ** No longer true- he's been on 5 or 6 now, they just didn't really go anywhere. |
| 385 | * HollywoodPersonalityDisorders: Where to start... |
| 386 | * {{Hypochondria}}: [[DownplayedTrope downplayed]]- he's diagnosed himself with a few mental disorders, but doesn't dwell on it much and doesn't consider himself to suffer from severe cases of any of them. He also tries to live his life as normally as possible and doesn't use such things as excuses, generally. |
| 387 | * HypocriticalHumor |
| 388 | * InferioritySuperiorityComplex: acts like a SmugSnake (and loudly proclaims how awesome he is) but really has pretty low self-esteem, as other entries here indicate. |
| 389 | * IntelligenceEqualsIsolation: is smart (or at least hears he is, and believes it some of the time), but has always been pretty isolated. |
| 390 | * ItsAllAboutMe: sometimes acts this way. It's gotten him into trouble in the past... |
| 391 | * JadeColoredGlasses: very much so, though he's often a cheerful cynic... He only broods about it sometimes. |
| 392 | * JerkAss: well, some of the time, anyways. Mostly, however, is a... |
| 393 | ** JerkWithAHeartOfGold |
| 394 | * LazyBum: usually, but not always. |
| 395 | * LeanAndMean: a not-quite villainous example. |
| 396 | * LimitedWardrobe: [[ZigZaggingTrope Zigzagged]]. While he does like his camo pants and band t-shirts, he wears non-music-related t-shirts as well, and he has several different pairs of camo pants, plus a few that aren't camos. |
| 397 | * LittleBigBrother: [[DownplayedTrope Downplayed]]- he's shorter than his brother, who's slightly more than a year younger and about four or five inches taller. He's 5-10, his brother's about 6-2. |
| 398 | * LonersAreFreaks: Is a loner. May or may not actually be a freak, but many people who don't know him think he is. |
| 399 | ** IneffectualLoner |
| 400 | * ManipulativeBastard: Has his moments. |
| 401 | * MemeticOutfit: has come to be associated with band t-shirts (especially PinkFloyd and LedZeppelin) and camouflage pants, even though he doesn't wear them all the time (just a sizable amount of the time). |
| 402 | * MetalHead: Sorta. Metal isn't the only type of music he likes though, and he doesn't have hair as long as the stereotype. |
| 403 | * MisanthropeSupreme: One of the nicest ones you'll likely ever meet. He's not out to harm anyone, he just HatesEveryoneEqually. |
| 404 | * MistakenForGay: has happened (the one doing the mistaking was a girl who didn't know him very well both times) with both him and his brother and him and his [[HeterosexualLifePartners best friend Alex]]. However, [[HaveIMentionedIAmHeterosexualToday he's very much straight]]. |
| 405 | * MrImagination: spends a lot of time somewhat detached from reality. |
| 406 | * MrViceGuy |
| 407 | * {{Nakama}}: with his friends in real life. He prefers quality to quantity when it comes to friends. |
| 408 | * NerdsAreVirgins |
| 409 | * NiceGuy: when he's not being a JerkWithAHeartOfGold. |
| 410 | * NietzscheWannabe: is a big Nietzsche fan, though not as nihilistic or extreme about his views as some others he knows are. Mostly, he's just really cynical. |
| 411 | ** TheAntiNihilist |
| 412 | * NobleDemon |
| 413 | * NoSocialSkills: well, not none, exactly, but finds it difficult and stressful to interact with new people, and sometimes says things he [[BrutalHonesty shouldn't]]. |
| 414 | * OccidentalOtaku: a borderline case, though he has other interests as well... |
| 415 | * PragmaticVillainy: to those who think he's a JerkAss, anyways. |
| 416 | * PsychoticSmirk: his default expression, though it's more smug and/or devious than outright psychotic. |
| 417 | * PyroManiac: enjoys playing with fire and fireworks/firecrackers, though he just sticks to melting old action figures and army men and such. Also, he's a big believer in fire safety and being careful about such things. But he still likes it... |
| 418 | * RealMenHateSugar: AVERTED, big time. He loves it. And he considers himself to be a real man (well, to the extent that anyone can be). Though he also loves grease and salt. |
| 419 | * RecordProducer: what he hopes to be someday. He's studying sound engineering right now... |
| 420 | * ReluctantPsycho: knows something's wrong with him, [[AtLeastIAdmitIt admits it]] and has mixed feelings about it- sometimes he embraces it, sometimes... not. |
| 421 | * ScrewySquirrel: sometimes. |
| 422 | * TheScrounger |
| 423 | * SelfDeprecation / HeroicSelfDeprecation: blurs the line between the two. |
| 424 | * SesquipedalianLoquaciousness: sometimes does this too. Mostly speaks in an odd combination of very informal pronunciation and mannerisms with the occasional long or obscure word thrown in. [[ShlubbAndKlumpEnglish Unlike some people]], he knows what most of the long words he uses mean. |
| 425 | * SillyRabbitIdealismIsForKids |
| 426 | * SillyRabbitRomanceIsForKids: came to this conclusion some time ago. |
| 427 | * TheSlacker: Very much so. |
| 428 | * SleepyHead: see HeavySleeper above. |
| 429 | * SlidingScaleOfIdealismVersusCynicism: far to the cynical end, though he's often pretty cheerful (and sometimes [[SmugSnake rather smug]]) about it. [[SillyRabbitIdealismIsForKids He likes rubbing his cynicism in.]] He's an odd, non-nilistic version of it though- he thinks people have potential- they just don't live up to it very much. |
| 430 | * SmallNameBigEgo: sometimes. |
| 431 | * SmugSnake / KnowNothingKnowItAll: occasionally acts like a bit of a narcissist and like he knows more than everyone else, though only occasionally. Usually gets taken down a peg pretty quickly. |
| 432 | * TheSneakyGuy |
| 433 | * SociopathicHero: YMMV, though. |
| 434 | ** MoralSociopathy |
| 435 | * SophisticatedAsHell |
| 436 | * StepfordSnarker |
| 437 | * TheStoner: Not so much, but back in the last year or two of high school... |
| 438 | ** EruditeStoner |
| 439 | * SurroundedByIdiots: he feels this way in real life pretty often, and sometimes says this word-for-word. |
| 440 | * SweetTooth |
| 441 | * TakeOverTheWorld: is working on it. |
| 442 | * ThirdPersonPerson: at least, while writing this article. |
| 443 | * TrademarkFavoriteFood: Chinese food, especially Sweet and Sour Chicken. |
| 444 | * TricksterArchetype: enjoys messing with people's heads sometimes, though not in an outright evil or malicious way. |
| 445 | ** TricksterMentor: to his brother and to his younger cousins. |
| 446 | * {{Troll}} |
| 447 | * TropeOverdosed: put way too much effort into filling his troper profile... |
| 448 | * TheUnfettered: subverted. Makes his own rules ([[BlueAndOrangeMorality which don't always make sense to anyone else]]...), but has rules nonetheless... |
| 449 | * VerbalTic: [[CanadaEh "Eh?"]], "I dunno" and "and shit/and stuff". |
| 450 | * WellIntentionedExtremist: a believer in the idea that sometimes [[UtopiaJustifiesTheMeans bad things should be done to achieve good ends]]. |
| 451 | * WhatIsEvil: is a firm believer in moral relativism/existentialism, though [[PragmaticVillainy he still believes most "evil" things are unpragmatic and thus pointless]]. |
| 452 | * WildCard |
| 453 | * TheWoobie: some people think so, anyways. |
| 454 | ** JerkAssWoobie |
| 455 | ** IronWoobie |
| 456 | * YouAreBetterThanYouThinkYouAre: his major complaint about society (and the source of most of his cynicism) is that most people fail to live up to their potential (he thinks everyone has it) or uses it to do questionable things (like pursue money or power, or just to cause harm). |
| 457 | * [[YuriFan Yuri Fanboy]]: though he doesn't think HetIsEw like some others do. He tends not to be big into the whole [[DieForOurShip killing off characters who get in the way of your favorite pairing]] thing. Actually, for the most part, he's not too big into shipping at all (he believes there's more to most works than that). |
