I'm just an ordinary guy, a "cyber-drifter" if you will, just trying to carve his niche into the Internet. I post in a lot of places, sometimes under different names.

This user (I don't really consider myself a "troper") provides examples of:
* ApologizesALot
* BadLiar
* Berserk Button (I don't have one big one, but many small ones, and if you press one too many times or too many at once...)
* BewareTheNiceOnes
* BiTheWay
* BigEater
* BrilliantButLazy
* BuffySpeak
* CatchPhrase ([[http://lparchive.org/LetsPlay/Banjo/ "Done and dusted."]])
* ChaoticNeutral (Leaning strongly towards good, though...at least, I hope so.)
* ComebackTomorrow: Happens to me a lot.
* ConspiracyTheorist (Although I really just do it for fun.)
* [[CrazyCatLady Crazy Cat Guy]] / KindheartedCatLover, depending on who you ask.
* CreatorThumbprint (Three of my projects include a pair of gray-eyed siblings wherein the older brother is a darker character than the younger sister, but not a bad person. In addition, I tend to include at least one Dear Evan Hansen reference in each of my book parodies.)
* DeadpanSnarker (Or, at least that's how I like to think of myself.)
* DoesNotDrive (Simply because it seems too expensive and stressful to be worth it for me.)
* DoesNotLikeSpam (Seafood and tomato sauce. Ironically, I actually ''like'' SPAM.)
* DoubleJump (I can't be the only one who's tried to do it in RealLife...right?)
* EvilLaugh
* FanworkOnlyFans (Of WesternAnimation/AvatarTheLastAirbender, WesternAnimation/ThomasAndFriends, and Theatre/DearEvanHansen to a lesser extent.)
* HeavySleeper
* IHaveManyNames (In addition to [=Kahran042=], I have also gone by The Entity Formerly Known As [=Kahran042=], Malach, Mizukage, my real name, Amaranth Goldenthorn, Jaegan, and Kaden in various places.)
* IThoughtEveryoneCouldDoThat (I sometimes forget that not everyone can read as fast as me.)
* InsultToRocks (one of my favorite rebuttals)
* [[JerkWithAHeartOfGold Jerk With A Heart Of Some Sort Of Precious Metal]]
* LargeHam
* LetsPlay (I've done ten of them for the Talking Time forums, and was working on an eleventh before it was archived.)
* NotAMorningPerson ( I was even voted "Worst Morning Person" in high school!)
* OccidentalOtaku
* OhMyGods (I often swear to Ceiling Cat.)
* [[RealMenWearPink Real Men Watch Shoujo Anime]]
* RebelliousSpirit
* ScreamsLikeALittleGirl
* SmallNameBigEgo
* SpoilerHound
* SweetTooth
* TechnicalPacifist
* TheCynic
* TheQuietOne
* TheSmartGuy (At least when it comes to useless trivia.)
* TrademarkFavoriteFood (Fried chicken.)
* ViewerGenderConfusion (When I was in elementary skool, I was mistaken for a girl a few times. Also, I've been called "ma'am" on the phone at least once.)
* [[WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes Why Did It Have To Be Crabs?]]
* JustForFun/XMeetsY (My cat Serafina was [[{{VideoGame/Undertale}} Tsunderplane]] meets [[Manga/AzumangaDaioh Kamineko]].)

Since there isn't really a page for this, I thought I'd put it here. It's a variant on FavoriteTrope where I don't necessarily like the trope itself, but find the page to be an interesting place.

Since I put up my favorite tropes, I might as well include their evil counterpart, the PetPeeveTrope s. It should be noted that I don't always hate these, but they're more often done poorly than not, so...

[[folder:My pet peeve tropes]]
* AManIsNotAVirgin
* A Weighty Aesop
* AbuseIsOkayWhenItIsFemaleOnMale
* AccentuateTheNegative
* Unspeakable Trope #20: Or, rather, the way it was used on this wiki to passive-aggressively shame people for not giving a bleep about fictional children.
* AfterTheEnd
* AllAbusersAreMale
* AllAnimeIsNaughtyTentacles
* AllDesertsHaveCacti: This just annoys me more than it should for some reason.
* AllGermansAreNazis
* AllGuysWantCheerleaders
* AllMenArePerverts
* Always Chaotic Evil
* Awful Wedded Life: At least when it's PlayedForDrama.
* Beyond Redemption
* Big Brother Bully
* BlackAndWhiteMorality
** AllCrimesAreEqual
* BuryYourGays
* Calling the Young Man Out
* Cartesian Karma
* CatsAreMean
* CerebusRetcon
* CerebusSyndrome
* CharacterShilling / Hate Sink: As far as I'm concerned, these are just two sides of the same vile coin.
* ComplainingAboutPeopleNotLikingTheShow
* Unspeakable Trope #9
* CreatorsPet
* DudeNotFunny / Unspeakable Trope #22 : '''''[[PunctuatedForEmphasis Humor. Is. Subjective.]]''''' It is funny to me. And if it isn't funny to me, it's probably funny to somebody.
* EverybodyHatesHades
* FanHater: Because which is more pathetic - liking or not liking a fictional character, or hating real people for the fictional characters they happen to like or dislike?
* FemalesAreMoreInnocent
* Freudian Excuse Is No Excuse
* GameFavoredGender
* Girls vs. Boys Plot
* HappyEndingOverride
* HeteronormativeCrusader
* HighHopesZeroTalent
* IAteWhat: Seriously, if you liked it before you knew what it was, then there's no reason you shouldn't like it after you know that.
* IfYouEverDoAnythingToHurtHer
* ImAManICantHelpIt
* IntendedAudienceReaction
* Kids Shouldn't Watch Horror Films
* MarySue
* MoralGuardians
* MySisterIsOffLimits
* NewMediaAreEvil
* Official Couple: For me, this is something to like a couple ''despite'', rather than ''because of'', if that makes sense.
* OurMonstersAreDifferent: Because it strikes me as being kind of judgmental against monsters that ''aren't'' "different."
* PairTheSpares
* {{Permadeath}}
* RealIsBrown
* RealMenHateSugar
* RealMenHaveShortHair
* RedemptionEqualsDeath
* RememberTheNewGuy
* Reviews Are The Gospel
* RockersSmashGuitars: [[Manga/KOn Yui Hirasawa]] would be horrified by this, and you don't want to horrify Yui Hirasawa, do you?
* ScienceIsBad
* ScrewYouElves: I don't necessarily mind it so much in-universe, but when it bleeds out into forums, it really pisses me off.
* ShallowParody: If you're not going to try to understand something, then why bother parodying it?
* ShipTease / ShipperOnDeck: It's easier for me to not hate official couples if the writers aren't shoving them down my throat through their characters.
* ShutUpHannibal
* Sisterhood Eliminates Creep
* SoapboxSadie
* Some Anvils Need To Be Dropped: No anvil needs to be dropped. If a work is blatantly preaching some message, no matter how good a message it is, it automatically sucks. End of discussion.
* StopHavingFunGuys, and their weapons, the...
** CharacterTiers
*** TierInducedScrappy
* StoryBranchFavoritism
* StrangledByTheRedString / DevelopersDesiredDate
* TeensAreMonsters
* TheAbridgedSeries
* TheChrisCarterEffect: This is why I don't watch live-action dramas.
* The Farmer and the Viper
* TheInternetIsForPorn
* TheUnfairSex
* ThereAreNoGirlsOnTheInternet
* TrappedByMountainLions
* VerySpecialEpisode
* {{Wangst}}
* WomenAreWiser
* WouldntHitAGirl
* ZombieApocalypse: At least, when it's the main plot of the series or game. If it's just the plot for one episode or story arc, it's not so bad.
[[/folder]]

Finally, the "Unspeakable Tropes." These are tropes that, although I don't really have a problem with the tropes themselves, I detest the way that they're primarily used on this wiki to belittle and demean people for daring to have different opinions from the majority, shut down any theories that a character might not be as [[DesignatedHero per]][[UnintentionallyUnsympathetic fect]] or [[DesignatedVillain dem]][[UnintentionallySympathetic onic]] as they're intended to be, as an excuse for complaining about characters they don't like or people not liking characters that they do, or that just really annoy me for one reason or another. Due to this, I will not link to them, mention them by name, or visit their pages. Hence, I'm listing them here with all vowels, spaces, and capitalization removed to avoid linking to them or being tempted to visit them. By the way, the order has no real significance. It's just the order in which it occurred to me that I should avoid having anything to do with that page.

[[folder:The Unspeakable Tropes]]

* II. rnthdthtr
* III. fndmb
* IV. htdmb

BTW, if you can guess where I got the spelling of "theater" in my favorites section, you get a cookie.
