Hi! I'm just one of the many contributors here on TV Tropes. I'm an Aquarius, so don't be surprised if I go into a sudden period of inactivity after a heavy one of editing. I keep on vacillating in my interests--one week, I'll be crazy about manga, the next, I'll be tired of it and be more interested in riddles and optical illusions. Of course, somewhere in the next month, I'll be hankering for manga again.

I originally took the username {{Roseanne}} before it was pointed out that there was a TV show of the same name. Oopsies.

Most people who know me in real life would label me a {{Meganekko}} (if any of them read this site, which they unfortunately don't), but I'm more of a CloudCuckoolander deep down inside. I have a horribly selective memory that will remember entire quotes from books but ''not'' the author or character names!

Case in point: I remembered a book from my childhood being about a male character's experience in a labor camp, and also that there were complaints about there being no snow-ins so far (a snowstorm means no work assigned on that day due to escape attempts, see), and that the main character managed to smuggle a shard of metal (useful for cutting things) into the camp by hiding it in one of his mittens, made a point of picking the old-aged inspector over the young one, ''and'' was almost busted when the old inspector crushed the mitten not holding the shard (thankfully, at that point, the inspector was told to hurry it on already). Despite recalling all this in minute detail, I ''could not for the life of me'' remember the author or even the protagonist's name! (Happily, WikiMagic did its work and some random tropers who read this identified this as ''One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich'' by Alexander Solzhenitsyn. Did I mention how much I love TV Tropes?)

Additionally, I tend to get my story ideas from minor, unimportant scenes in books that just happen to tickle my fancy and send my imagination running off into less and less related tangents. Though I'm currently just trying to ''finish'' some of the half-finished fanfics lying on my hard disk and overcome my chronic AttentionDeficitCreatorDisorder.

I am also a YaoiFangirl who likes to believe that I can tell the difference between well-written and poorly-written SlashFic. I dislike {{Natter}} and ComplainingAboutShowsYouDontLike, but have been guilty of indulging in them quite a few times. Hey, [[MostWritersAreHuman I'm only human]]!

Finally, [[TroperDemographics for the record]], I'm a [[MostTropersAreYoungNerds young nerd]] who just happens to be [[PurelyAestheticGender female]].

Series TV Tropes [[strike:[[TVTropesWillRuinYourLife is guilty of corrupting me into]]]] [[TVTropesWillEnhanceYourLife deserves to be worshipped for introducing me to]]:
* ''AvatarTheLastAirbender''
* ''AxisPowersHetalia'': My current obsession. Who'd have thought that such a cracktastic series would be such fertile ground for fanworks of [[CrackFic every]] [[CanonFodder possible]] [[DarkFic tone]]? Though I can't help but be amused at the most prominent Hetalia {{Entry Pimp}}ers having a blatantly obvious slant toward America/England...okay, I guess I [[HypocriticalHumor shouldn't complain]] as I'm a ''huge'' America/England fan myself and that's largely due to all the great America/England recs on the [[FanficRecs/AxisPowersHetalia APH Fanfic Recommendations page]], but it's a bit funny to see them promoted as a couple in [[TakahashiCouple s]][[FanPreferredCouple o]] [[EveryoneCanSeeIt m]][[ShipTease a]][[WillTheyOrWontThey n]][[AlternativeCharacterInterpretation y]] [[PortmanteauCoupleName a]][[MasterOfTheMixedMessage r]][[HoYay/{{Anime}} t]][[OneHeadTaller i]][[LoveHurts c]][[UnluckyChildhoodFriend l]][[{{Oranyan}} e]][[SavvyGuyEnergeticGirl s]] (not that I haven't mentioned them on a few articles myself, but these are the ones inserted by someone other than me) when they're not even an OfficialCouple in-series and any other pairing with the same amount of subtext (including pairings from other series and the other Hetalia pairings) doesn't get one-eighth as much attention or support on this site. (Hell, even the sample strips linked to on the general Hetalia entry on ArtEvolution feature the most {{Ho Yay}}ish moments between them, which simply ''cannot'' be a coincidence.) Then again, I never thought I'd dare to get so thoroughly immersed in a fandom before Hetalia came along; maybe Hetalia's ''just that good'' at sucking in people who'd otherwise never touch a series like this?
* ''BridgeOfBirds''
* ''ElGoonishShive''
