Context Tropers / Thiefoftime

Go To

1First of all, I am not named after the {{Discworld}} [[Discworld/ThiefOfTime novel]], I actually found out about that after (And here I was, thinking I was so original).
2
3Yeah, I'm a male troper, a rather soft-spoken one. I browse, I edit, getting more involved in the forums.
4
5[[folder:Tropes that apply to me]]
6
7* ADarkerMe: Mostly averted, my personality on the Internet is similar to my personality outside the Internet although I occasionally act different
8* AspergersSyndrome: [[SincerityMode Professionally diagnosed]].
9* BigEater: So much that if I am a restaurant and an item says something like "not for the faint of heart" or "our biggest item," I feel challenged and order it, and I make sure there are no leftovers.
10* DeadpanSnarker: Although I am aware that it's usually not funny.
11* EverythingsWorseWithBears: Well, I do have ursaphobia.
12* GrammarNazi: I try not to be this as I am sometimes wrong.
13* GratuitousFrench: Likes to use this to confuse my non-French speaking friends.
14* HypeAversion / HypeBacklash: Towards pretty much anything praised as the greatest thing since sliced bread, although there are exceptions.
15* JadeColoredGlasses: I have these on some days, hopefully not to the point where it comes across as {{Wangst}}.
16* MostTropersAreYoungNerds: Yup, I'm a young nerd.
17* NiceGuy
18* NoSocialSkills: I don't really mind it too much, though.
19* ProudToBeAGeek
20* TheQuietOne: Sometimes.
21* TheStoic: I may not come across as it, but I find that I am.
22* SerialTweaker: I try not to be but it still ends up happening.
23* YoungerThanTheyLook: I've been mistaken as a couple years older than I actually am more than once.

27[[folder:Tropes I Like]]
28
29* CosmicHorrorStory: It's hard to find decent ones though.
30* DarkerAndEdgier: But only if done right (i.e. not gratuitous)
31

33
34[[folder:Tropes I Don't Like]]
35
36* ClusterFBomb: There comes a certain point where swearing is just gratuitous.
37** GoshDangItToHeck: At the same time though, unless it's intended for kids, going out of the way to avoid swearing is just silly.
38* DeusExMachina: Mostly because it isn't easy to find a good use for it.
39* FauxSymbolism: I'd rather enjoy the work at face value, thanks.
40* HumansAreTheRealMonsters[=/=]HumansAreMorons: No, they're not. They're human beings, anyone with humanistic qualities is prone to being a bastard or moron. Another problem I have is that many authors create a race to prove their point about this, which makes said race look like a bunch of Mary Sues.

44Stuff I like:
45
46[[folder:Anime and Manga]]
47
48* Anime/KirbyOfTheStars: It's a GuiltyPleasure.
49* Anime/LastExile: Probably one of my favorite shows. Currently awaiting a chance to watch LastExileFamTheSilverWing.
50* Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion: [[FauxSymbolism Pretentious]] and [[MindScrew confusing]] as hell, [[GuiltyPleasure and I loved]] [[SoCoolItsAwesome every minute of it]].
51** PetitEva: A nice comedic take on the series. Good to watch after finishing ''[[NightmareFuel End of Evangelion]]''.

60
61[[folder:Films]]
62
63* Almost anything in the DisneyAnimatedCanon
64* Any Arnold Schwarzenegger movie that I have seen (the sole exception being {{Junior}})
65* Film/TheBirds
66* Film/TheBreakfastClub
67* Film/FerrisBuellersDayOff
68* Film/{{Inception}}
69* Film/StarWars (IV, V and VI. II and III aren't as bad as most Star Wars fans say they are, the only one I truly don't like is I).
70* Film/TheWizardOfOz
71
72[[/folder]]
73
74[[folder:Video Games]]
75
76* VideoGame/{{Castlevania}}: I love both the Classicvanias and the Metroidvanias, but I have yet to try the Modernvanias.
77* VideoGame/CaveStory: I still can't believe it was all made by one guy.
78* VideoGame/ChronoTrigger: Short for an RPG, but sweet all the way through.
79* VideoGame/{{Earthbound}}: Loved it from start to finish. Giygas still gives me nightmares.
80** VideoGame/{{Mother3}}: One of the best stories I've seen in video games. This needs to be remade and brought to the US.
81* EliteBeatAgents
82* VideoGame/{{Eversion}}
83* Franchise/FinalFantasy
84** VideoGame/FinalFantasyI
85** VideoGame/FinalFantasyII: The gameplay is sub-par, but the story's pretty well-written.
86** VideoGame/FinalFantasyIV: Only played the DS version. Really difficult but I managed to beat the main story.
87** VideoGame/FinalFantasyVI: My favorite of the whole series. Kefka's also my favourite villain ever.
88** VideoGame/FinalFantasyIX: I, sadly, never got a chance to finish it, and I hope that I'll find it again some day.
89* VideoGame/KingdomHearts (Chain Of Memories, Days, and coded)
90* VideoGame/{{Kirby}} (Most of them)
91* Franchise/TheLegendOfZelda (Link to the Past, Majora's Mask, Wind Waker, and Spirit Tracks)
92* VideoGame/{{Minecraft}}
93* VideoGame/{{Okami}}: Man, I wish this game sold more. Definitely deserving of it's CultClassic status.
94* Franchise/SuperMarioBros: I have always loved this series and always will. 64 and the 2 Galaxy games are my particular favourites.
95* VideoGame/SuperSmashBros (All 3)
96* VideoGame/TatsunokoVsCapcom
97

100[[folder:Western Animation]]
101
102* WesternAnimation/{{Futurama}}
103* WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons (Pre SeasonalRot mostly, it's not a terrible show these days but it's definitely not what it used to be)
104* Disney/WinnieThePooh
105
106[[/folder]]
107
108I also have an irritating tendency to edit the wrong pages. I guess that's what happens when you have multiple tabs at once.

114* Oh how fun it is to ruin one's purity~! ~ @/{{raigakuren}}
115** [[color:purple: thief says]]: [[BigNo NNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOO]] although I guess it was inevitable.
116* There once was a [[@/ThiefOfTime troper]]\
117Whose page was prim and proper\
118Then along came [[@/KarlKadaver Karl]]\
119He began to defile\
120And after a while\
121He ran out of verses for his poem. - A Thing With Words by @/KarlKadaver
122** [[color:purple: thief says]]: At least it's longer than mine was.
123* Quiet. ~@/{{Theindefiniteone}}
124** [[color:purple: thief says]]: [[ItsQuietTooQuiet ...too quiet]].
125*** RANDOM YELLING!!!
126* A fellow Chun-Li fan, perhaps? Don't deny it, I quote you here for proof: [[HelloNurse Hello, Interpol Agent!]] It's always cool to meet fellow fans of Chunder Thighs, so if you ever wanna talk about her or anything else, PM me or post on my profile. And other than that, you seem cool. Except liking Chun-Li [[UpToEleven makes you even cooler]] in my opinion. @/{{Darkclaw}}
127** [[color:purple: thief says]]: There's a reason her name (roughly) means "beautiful spring."
128
129* Good morning from UCT +8:00. -- @/LiberatedLiberater

133** [[color:purple: thief says]]:So now the world knows...
134* You seems to be a cool (and creepy) guy. Mostly creepy. Your avatar and your account name makes you looks like an HumanoidAbomination :p ~@/DhanaRagnarok
135** [[color:purple: thief says]]: Crap, another secret's out. Nyarlathotep's gonna be pissed...
136** Don't worry, Nyarly is an old friend ;)
137* Eep.
138* EX-TERM-IN-ATE!!! Hah, just kidding. - @/{{Mort08}}
139* GazBevMoo was here and doesn't like it.
140* You have not won yet...Now you have. ~PancticeSquadeCutterback
141* Thief of Time, I demand that the time it took me to type this sentence be given back to me at once! --@/SeanMurrayI
142* Huh, so that's where my last weekend went...~@/{{A Stray Bard}}
143* I, @/{{Ysa Slayer Of Sporks}}, formally request a large amount of time to do all my homework as a distraction while my feline ninja minions take it... oh crap, did I say that last part out loud?
144* This vandalism brought to you by [[StuartAshen Chef Excellence]]! "An Excellent Vandalism" -[[@/VmKid Chef Excellence]]
145* Yarhgh. ~@/{{Rockonman}}
146** [[color:purple: thief says]]: Blargleglable
147* The time spent writing this is time I will never have back. You must have stolen it. - @/CompletelyNormalGuy
148* Hi theee'''''EEEEEEERRRRREEEEEEEE'''''. - @/PhysicalStamina

155* AwesomeMcCoolname. Duh. @/InhopelessGuy
156** Seconded, even if it happens to be the name of a Discworld novel you weren't aware of. :P
157* {{Dandere}} {{@/risingdreams}}
158* EldritchAbomination: You show clear traits of it. --@/{{Belfagor}}
159* TimeLord: ...What ? Too obvious ? ~@/DhanaRagnarok
160* TheSandiego: Your name seems to imply you stole time. How on Earth did you get away with that? -{{Tropers/Darkclaw}}
161** The answer is: you are an EldritchAbomination. Our mere human ideas of time do not apply. -{{Tropers/Darkclaw}}
162* Hey dude. How's it going? ''DO YOU NOTICE MY CREATIVITY!?''- @/{{Eternal noob}}
163* {{Black Mage}} of the highest order ~@/{{Rockonman}}
