SubpagesTropers
|
A Troper for whom the Lumper vs. Splitter debate is a moot point. Very fond of strange, genre-defying music and strange, panic-inducing fiction. Also serves as Herald for the Music subforum .
Sings and plays random instruments in a band . They're fairly obscure, which makes them amazing.

Things That I Have Worked On But Not Published (Yet)
Failed film projects (lowest likelihood of "success"[[hottip:i.e. completion, non-terribleness and so forth]]):
- Desk†: A short film about four guys moving a desk, and another guy who finds it. Made of Mind Screw.
- Here Goes Nothing†: A fake documentary about the attempted making of a mockumentary. Also, a psychological horror film, and a comedy of errors. Basically, a tour-de-force of violent Genre Busting.
Sequential art nonsense (lower likelihood of success):
- Hello!†: A "skitcom" with a strong line in Dada.
- Jacob's Mind: An exceedingly dark comedy about a hapless loser and his utterly sadistic imaginary friend.
Prosaic prose stuff (slightly higher likelihood of success):
The elephant in the room:
†With this guy.
Applicable Tropes
Add to these as you will...
- Angrish: My native tongue.
- The Anti-Nihilist: I am generally of the belief that people tend to conflate meaning in existence and meaning in their own lives, consequently overrating the former and devaluing the latter.
- Apologises a Lot: Often with good reason.
- Attention Deficit... Ooh, Shiny!: What...?
- Beware the Nice Ones: Though easily frustrated by little things, I actually have very few buttons that can seriously be pressed. When they are... Run.
- Bi the Way: Though I tend to give off the impression of having no interest at all...
- Cannot Tell a Joke: In direct conversation, if I try to make one, it tends to rely heavily on Viewers Are Geniuses. Sometimes averted through blatant absurdity and circular logic.
- Cannot Tell a Lie: I am very, very bad at actually lying. Exact Words, however...
- Caustic Critic: Possibly doubly subverted. If I like something, I will follow my nitpicking with unrestrained gushing; if I dislike something, the venom will eat through your desk.
- Celibate Hero: Not really by choice, though.
- The Chew Toy: You'd be surprised.
- Cloudcuckoolander: Most people, upon meeting me, fall under the impression that I have Asperger's Syndrome. I don't. I'm just odd.
- Covert Pervert: Most people don't expect my rather twisted sense of humour upon meeting me. This is resolved quite quickly.
- Deadpan Snarker: When I am, I am very deadpan. But most of the time I'm just really literal.
- Devil's Advocate: Oh, dear...
- Ditzy Genius / Genius Ditz: Having a strong tendency to freely associate mid-conversation, forget what one is doing in the middle of a simple task and generally miss the point does not necessarily indicate stupidity... nor does an encyclopedic knowledge of obscure historical, literary and musical minutiae indicate any degree of common sense.
- Entry Pimp: Online and in the "real world" for just about any random band or author I'm into at the moment.
- Fan Nickname: I have gained some fairly bizarre monikers in my time, most of which are based upon incidents too complicated to explain. Example: Creampuff.
- For Happiness: Always.
- Fountain of Memes: Among my friends. I am essentially a living in-joke generator.
- Freaky Is Cool: My entire modus operandi.
- Geek: So very surprising.
- Nerd: To a lesser extent.
- Hipster: My music taste tends to lead people to this conclusion; in point of fact, most of what I listen to, while obscure and weird, isn't very hip at all.
- The Hyena: Life is suffering. Ergo, it is hilarious.
- Improbably High IQ: See "Ditzy Genius" for why this is functionally irrelevant.
- Insane Troll Logic: Averted. Most of what I'm talking about ultimately makes some sense, but the connections are complicated and random enough to throw most people off.
- Insufferable Genius: When confronted with stupidity, I simply go as far as I can in the opposite direction.
- Intelligence Equals Isolation: My childhood, in a nutshell. Which didn't actually suck.
- Keet: Sometimes. Mention Mutant Sounds
and I'll give you my best Fanboy Squee.
- Know-Nothing Know-It-All: I try to avoid this, but sometimes... it's not pretty.
- Large Ham: Oh, yes. Especially when performing in front of an audience.
- Literal-Minded: Very.
- Logic Bomb: One of my favourite things.
- NEET: Basically. It's a tad depressing.
- Nice Guy: I try. I really do.
- Ninja Editor: *edit*
- No Social Skills: Better at this than I used to be. Specifically...
- Sesquipedalian Loquaciousness: Indubitably.
- Shut In: Borderline example.
- The Slacker: So very much so...
- Too Clever by Half: When I'm not just flat-out irritating.
- Verbal Tic: Plenty, the most notable being: "I mean, really..."
- What Do You Mean, You're Not On Drugs?: I get that a lot. And by a lot, I mean when people aren't politely avoiding the question or assuming a sound "yes, he definitely is." To the latter: I'm terribly sorry for trampling all over your expectations. I really am.
- What the Hell Is That Accent?: I'm from a particular part of my state that has a very hard-to-place, quirky accent, which combined with my voice makes things even more mystifying.
- The Wonka: Sometimes.
- Xanatos Gambit: When they least expect it.

- Thank you, O Vengeful One.
- It occurred to me that I hadn't vandalized your page, and though I'm very happy I'm not actually the Finn to your Harris, I thought that I should do this, in memory of their strange and horrific relationship. - AwayLaughing
- Strange and horrific indeed. And thank you.
- Well, you know what happens when a person is awesome. THAT PERSON'S PAGE IS RAVISHED WITHOUT MERCY. ~ Snowy Foxes
