G-Mon / Tropers - TV Tropes

...Well, not much to say right now, just a regular 20-something-year-old Chicago native who got bored enough to hang around. More of a Lurker than anything else.

I only update this sporadically, so don't be surprised if something doesn't show up here right away. I won't put up relatively minor edits or adopted orphans, either. Speaking of which, if you see a line from me on your user page, don't worry; I was probably just cleaning up the orphan list some more, and your page was on it (or more commonly nowadays, I just ran across your page during a Wiki Walk).

NOTE: Due to technical limitations, my handle here is technically G Mon (if you're interested in seeing my edits, they're here). PMs via the link above won't work for the same reason. If you really need to get in contact with me, try looking for me on the forums; I usually hang out in the Trope Repair Shop, Trope Talk, and Wiki Talk areas. Alternatively, you can use the "Send a PM" link near the top (the second row of blue buttons up there, if you're a Known Troper).

NOTE TO TROPERS: If anything on this page gets renamed, feel free to correct the wick to reflect it; just leave a note with the former name in it. Also free are updating a ptitle wick moved to its non-ptitled version and moving works pages wicks to an appropriate namespace. Just leave an edit reason saying as much.

Dear reader,
Please do me right now. On the kitchen table. In your bed. On the couch. Shoot, I'll even take the floor in front of the T.V. I don't care, I just need you to do me like I've never been done before.
Sincerely, your homework.
Dear blank, please blank.
