(I'm not sure where this really belongs, so I'm putting it in YF for now. Mods, feel free to move it to Forum Games if you think it fits better there.)
The point of this thread is to list your favorite tropers and say what makes you like them so much. Please be specific; we already have Gushing About Shows You Like if you want to gush about TV Tropes or the Forums in general.
EDIT: Chopped the list because it's now quite outdated, and there are some comments in here that only made sense back in 2009 and may have even been a bit creepy.

There is a spider by the name of Cancriformus. The nomen is terribly apt, as it resembles both a tiny crab and a misbegotten tumor-blot.
Smile for me!well it wasn't space cancer or even really cancer but it acted as cancer so it works
We made gods and jailers because we felt small. We let them judge us and we allowed ourselves to be sentenced. See! Now! Our sentence is up!This thread gave me cancer.
Well, someone had to say it. Apologies to actual cancer victims or relatives of those.
I will never overcome this trauma, X.
Gushing over X (again) for stating the inevitable.
Also, this:
"Oh no, Sanji's Chronic Simprosis!" - Kou The Mad
X 2 X is That One Guy Named X's sockpuppet for self-praise, hence "X to X".
Fresh-eyed movie blogOh. God. How terrible. I feel awful. Excuse me while I go cry in a corner.
Thank you, I was thinking of posting that image, myself :P
What gave us away?

Guess the jig is up.
"Oh no, Sanji's Chronic Simprosis!" - Kou The MadYup. They caught us. I suppose you can stop existing now.
Alright then. I'm logging off.
... Wow. This whole "talking to myself" thing is weird, to say the least.
"Oh no, Sanji's Chronic Simprosis!" - Kou The MadThere Can Be Only One. A duel to the death is required now, I think.
I'm okay with this. So long as the BGM is Queen.
Don't stop me now Or And another one bites the dust?
Definitely not the latter. That'd be way too cliche.
I disagree. Use the latter because it's so cliché.
Add Saiga into the duel to the death. He suffers from a terminal case of taste failure.
Don't be a snoot Arha, let another one bite the dust.
Or I could just crush Saiga's skull. Everyone loves skullcrushing right?

But the duel is pointless if neither X survives.
Jokes on you, I sold my skull for meth money.

Only meth?
My skull didn't fetch much.
I guess without a brain to protect your skull was mainly superfluous anyway.
Looks like you need to brush up on Australian biology, Arha.
Brains in skulls! Honestly.

None of them hold a candle to Zombie Cancer.
