Don't bold example names.


* '''CloudCuckooLander''': There is a reason why the trope is in bold, it's because not only does he have a weird way of thinking, but he also has a weird way of ''playing his music''. He does not use tabs and simply holds all the music in his head, plus he's a self taught guitarist, so his style of playing is very odd.

Adorkable clean-up. Adorkable is an in-verse trope when a character is found dorky yet attractive by other characters in the story. It is not an Audience Rection. Zero Context Examples are not allowed on wiki pages.
