8
9	* AsleepInClass: Became way more prevalent in my senior year.
10	* AmbiguouslyBrown: I'm Italian, and part Indian. Many people assume I'm Hispanic.
11	* BigEater: Considering I have what I deem a gamer's appetite, and also that I can't keep weight on very well.
12	* ChallengeGamer: It would seem that the more frustrated I get trying to beat a given game, the more it appeals to me.
13	* TheConfidant: I didn't really trust anyone enough as a kid to have one, but I try to be one to others. PM box is open.
14	* DoNotCallMePaul: Michael's my middle name, and the one I prefer. But my real name's Ben.
15	* EatingLunchAlone: It's peaceful. And it helps me think.
16	* IHaveManyNames: I've been nicknamed El, Charcoal, Marshmallow, Snickers, Milk...and Patrick. Take your pick.
17	* LimitedWardrobe: I ''do'' wash them, but most of my outfits consist of one of my many pairs of black pants and my maroon Zelda hoodie.
18	* MasterOfNone: For the time being. I know a little programming, I draw, and I play music. My family's always said my skills in music are superior, but anyone who's taken a class in any of the three can vouch differently. I'm working on it, though, as I plan to go into indie game development.
19	* MessyHair: It only stays straight if it's meticulously straightened.
20	* MistakenAge: Upon hearing my voice and seeing my diction alone, many people have assumed I'm in my early/mid-twenties. That's when I was 15.
21	* MrImagination: I used to be, as a child. I'm trying to get that back.
22	* NiceGuy: Or so I hope.
23	* RetroGaming: Mostly due to my brother's influence, as he actually grew up in TheNineties.
24	* SirSwearsALot: It's for emphasis! I swear!
25	* TheStoic: I tend to get like this when I'm upset.
26	* SweetTooth: Strawberry ice cream, especially.
27	* TheTetrisEffect[=/=]TVTropesWillRuinYourLife: There was once an entire week and a half where my dreams consisted of nothing but the fora on ThisVeryWiki.
28	* UnusualEuphemism: I'm a fan of using 'em in real life, most notably "Son of a nutcracker!"
29	* [[WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes Why Did It Have To Be Roaches?]]: And wasps.

62	[[AC:{{Manhwa}}]]
63	* ''Manhwa/JackFrost'': It was a favorite of an ex-girlfriend of mine; she wanted me to read it because she'd played ''VideoGame/EarthBound'' with me.

79	* ''VideoGame/TheBindingOfIsaac''
80	* ''VideoGame/ChronoTrigger''
81	* ''VideoGame/TheCurseOfMonkeyIsland'': I never really got much into the rest of the series, but Curse is one of the games I grew up with.
82	* ''VideoGame/DwarfFortress''
83	* ''VideoGame/EarthBound'': Hoo, boy. I wasn't quite born in this game's generation, but I did indeed grow up with it. My oldest brother sat me in front of an SNES emulator with [=EarthBound=] on it one night, because my parents asked him to babysit me. It's one of the most inspirational games of my life.
84	* ''VideoGame/GarrysMod'': If only for ''TroubleInTerroristTown''.
85	* ''VideoGame/HalfMinuteHero'': For the three dollars I paid for it, it ''far'' exceeded my expectations as a mere gimmicky game. Shame it has such little replay value.
86	* ''VideoGame/KillingFloor'': I love accents.
87	* ''VideoGame/KingdomOfLoathing'': As I previously stated, it's the reason I came to TV Tropes.
88	* ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaOcarinaOfTime'': The first video game I ever played, at the ripe age of 4. It's like a bedtime story I can listen to over and over again.
89	* ''VideoGame/TheLostVikings'': Thanks to DeceasedCrab, who was an inspiration for my own Let's Plays.
90	* ''VideoGame/NetHack''
91	* ''VideoGame/{{Off}}''
92	* ''VideoGame/PajamaSam'': My entire early childhood in a nutshell. [[PeripheryDemographic I still play 'em sometimes.]]
