(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EDIT: Chopped the list because it's now quite outdated, and there are some comments in here that only made sense back in 2009 and may have even been a bit creepy.

It's like shit wants nothing to do with the handle.
It's like shit is filing for divorce from the handle and engaging in a long legal battle for custody of shit's and the handle's kids.
Then let's hope there will be a squishy derriere somewhere below the handle to break your fall.

I'll have to gush about rallyfan9000 here, for making this awesome RPG
and GMing the first rounds despite lack of experience. Nicely done!
