[[folder: Name Origin]]

A long time ago I used to call myself Background Bailey, [[MeaningfulName because I liked to rip sprite backgrounds from NES/SNES games for fun]]. Unfortunately, most people assumed that Bailey was my ''first name'', not my last, [[ViewerGenderConfusion which lead to some rather uncomfortable and awkward situations...]] So I took my last name and reworked it a bit, coming up with 'Bailoroc' because I thought it [[RuleOfCool sounded like the name of a wizard or a necromancer or something cool like that]].

[[folder: Tropes that apply to this troper]]

Actually, you know what? [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DbsNjQvefYw&feature=related After seeing this video, I've decided to just nuke this section; I'll still keep the others up but now I kind of don't want to describe myself with tropes after all.]] [[NiceJobBreakingItHero Nice Job making tropers look bad.]][[/folder]]

[[folder: Tropes I love/like]]

* ActuallyIAmHim

[[folder: Tropes I hate/dislike]]

* {{Aesoptinum}}: Come on, man, you can think of better ways to teach your audience an Aesop!
* AllGuysWantCheerleaders: Eeeew, no! I can't stand cheerleaders! Or cheerleader types!
* AllMenArePerverts: No, they aren't.
* AllWomenLoveShoes: That's sexist! That's sexist and [[AndThatsTerrible wrong]]! Stop being sexist!
* AmuletOfConcentratedAwesome: I prefer stories where your special powers ''aren't'' tied to something that can simply and easily be ''stolen''.
* BambooTechnology: No, damn it, NO! You can ''not'' make everything out of wood and grass!
* BigRedButton: I know there are ways to justify having a self-desruction mechanism on your ship/machine/factory/whatever, but this isn't one of them.
* ByThePowerOfGrayskull: Unless we're talking about something that needs a MagicalIncantation in order to work, why can't you just ''do it''?
* ChristianityIsCatholic: It's like Hollywood doesn't even know Protestants even exist!
* CloningBlues: As far as I'm concerned, all living things (and maybe even a few non-living things) have a soul, so a clone is just as real as a non-clone. Besides, identical twins are basically nature's clones, aren't they?
* CollapsingLair: Unless we're talking about a structure that's being held together by the villain's will, this trope is usually kind of stupid...
* ContextSensitiveButton: NO! NO! Science does not work like that! Maybe magic, but not science!
* CosmeticallyAdvancedPrequel: I know it can't be helped but it still bugs me.
* DarkIsEvil: ''Meh''...I prefer works that use "Dark People who ''happen'' to be evil" rather than "Everything dark is evil!!1!!"
* DeaderThanDead: This is HighOctaneNightmareFuel for me and I wouldn't wish this on anyone, not even a CompleteMonster.
* DistractedByTheSexy: This trope is stupid ''and'' sexist, my most hated combination.
* DoAnythingRobot: Unless it's made out of magic, nanobots, or liquid metal, this trope doesn't make any sense. The issue of the limitations of physical space alone keeps me from taking this trope seriously.
* DoubleStandard: Double standards are pure evil and must be exterminated from our cultures. Yeah, I said it.
* DuctTapeForEverything: Duct tape does not work that way.
* EleventhHourSuperpower: Lazy writing at it's laziest.
* ElvesVersusDwarves
* EveryProperLadyShouldCurtsy: Shut up; don't make me smack you! Besides, "ladies" are lame; tomboys are much more awesome!
* FictionalCounterpart: Shows and media should be allowed to use the real deal's name; I hate how restrictive American copyright laws are.
* FluffyCloudHeaven: I don't know what goes on in heaven anymore than the rest of us but I'm sure whatever it's like is more wonderful and meaningful than ''this'' stupid trope.
* ForgottenPhlebotinum: If it's forgotten that easily, then there was no point in showing it off in the first place.
* ForgottenSuperweapon: Erg...getch....WHY WOULD YOU FORGET ABOUT SOMETHING LIKE THAT!
* GirlOnGirlIsHot: Not only do I ''not'' find "girl on girl" "hot", but I struggle to understand ''how'' other men apparently do. See, if it was a homosexual ''girl'' who was purchasing the yuri material, that would make sense ''because she is gay herself''; what does a straight male gain from watching two gay women from making out? [[CompletelyMissingThePoint I don't get it]]! And because of my ridiculously sheltered upbringing, I probably never will. Needless to say, I find straight people obsessing over gay couples to be creepy and voyeuristic.
* GoodAngelBadAngel: Parodies and subversions are always funny but other than that this is one trope that's kind of lame when played straight.
* GrandpaGod: I'm pretty sure God doesn't look like this...or anything, really, being a Supreme Spirit...can this trope be discredited now?
* GreatBigBookOfEverything: Unless it's a magical or an electronic book, this just doesn't work out.
* HandyRemoteControl: Can a remote have a lot of useful, pre-progammed options? Sure. But can it do ''anything''? Not without magic it can't.
* HetIsEw: YOU IDIOTS! You yourself (unless you were a "test tube baby") are a product of at least one heterosexual encounter! We're a species that reproduces through sexual intercourse between two different sexes; it's how nature (or {{God}} if you believe in that sort of thing like I do) made us, so stop acting like it's some kind of gross, bizzare sin of some kind! Geeze! It's like gay-bashing in reverse!
* IHaveBoobsYouMustObey: No I don't, ''shut up''. Just because I find you attractive ''doesn't mean I instantaneously lose my will power''. Damn it, I [[PrecisionFStrike fucking]] hate this trope!
* ImAManICantHelpIt: [[PrecisionFStrike Fuck you]] and this trope.
* InfiniteSupplies: It's fine for video games due to the nature of the medium but as soon as you start thinking about it in any other...
* InventionalWisdom: ....''WHAT''?!?
* MenstrualMenace: Now you're just being sexist.
* NewPowersAsThePlotDemands: Again, really lazy writing. I don't mind characters learning new powers but either their powers should still be developing, they're unstable enough to change, or they earn their new powers through work....otherwise...
* OffscreenVillainDarkMatter: Plllooooot hoooooooole!
* OutgrownSuchSillySuperstitions: The less I say ''why'' I hate this trope, the better.
* RedRightHand: No, it's ''actions'' that make you evil, not a deformity.
* ScrewLearningIHavePhlebotinum: Unless we're talking about a scientific and/or magical NeuralImplanting as a side or secondary effect, this trope is insanely stupid.
* SelfDefenseless
* SelfDestructMechanism: Unless you can justify it, this trope seems...stupid and unnecessary. Besides, destroying something the old-fashion way is just more exciting.
* ShallowLoveInterest
* SpearCarrier
* StatusQuoIsGod: I ''hate'' this trope. I ''loathe'' this trope. I ''despise''this trope. It's an excuse for lazy writing and for cowards who are afraid of a little continuity.
* TakeThatCritics: Unless your critics are complete idiots (and by complete idiots, I mean in a "stupid YouTube poster", "retarded Hill-Billy", or "Chris-Chan" kind of way), you should take ''all'' criticism seriously; sometimes they might point out something you may have missed and can be a valuable learning experience.
* TheDarkSide: DarkIsNotEvil, damnit.
* TheUnfairSex: I still hate double standards.
* TimeTravel: It's not that I hate TimeTravel persay, it's just that too many stories either uses really bad paradoxes or utilizes it poorly.
* TVGenius
* YourMindMakesItReal: Why?
