Hey, there. Well, since you clicked on this page, you're probably...

1. wondering what exactly I'm doing here, and want to know more about me, or
2. lost on your way to a random Google Image Search.

I can help you out with the first one, but for the second, you're on your own.

To sum it up, I'm a 28-year-old dude from the suburbs of Philadelphia, with a passion for video games, manga and anime...you know, the sorts of things people do when they're not at work. I also like to read webcomics, too, but not quite as often. I've been a contributor to this site for quite a while now, stumbling upon it while reading about Mary Sues or something...I don't quite remember.

Keeper of a website-slash-blog where I store a majority of my Fan Fic. Also an avowed Azutard, Haruhiist, Disgaeaphile and HiMEniac (I made those last two up. If they ever catch on, remember...you saw them here first!)

My Contributions (Wiki Magic usually takes care of the rest):

...the expansion (but not the creation) of the Trope Pantheons section...

...and a bunch of others before The Great Crash.

These tropes best describe me:

• Aloof Big Brother
• Attention Deficit Ooh Shiny
• Blind Without Em: Naturally, hence the nickname.
• But Not Too Black
• Celibate Hero
• Crack Pairing: I once wrote a Shizuru/Arcueid Crossover Ship-fic on April Fools' Day for the lulz.
• The Ditz: Isn't everybody at one point?
• Entry Pimp
• Gonk: Not quite fat, but not exactly Bishonen, either.
• Loser Guy: If not for my college degree, I'd probably be the guy who sucks.
• Nerd: Cashed in my "coolness" ticket the day I graduated from college.
• Otaku of video games, though I never use that word to describe myself.
• Pet Peeve Tropes: Portmanteau Couple Names and Gratuitous Japanese are two big ones.
• Picky Eater
• Spoiler Hound
• Subbing Vs Dubbing: Mostly on the dub side, but will rewatch the subbed versions of some series for added fun (e.g. Azumanga Daioh). When it comes to foreign live-action films, however, I always watch them subbed.
• Technical Pacifist: Wits are my only weapon.
• Yuri Fan

• Has never found a stranger in the Alps.
• Got ye flask.
• Is better with dinosaurs.
• Stays crunchy in milk.
• Doubted El Dandy, but was not fooled by Silver King's stocky physique.
