** A real one occurred in early February 2011: [[http://www.rpgsite.net/news/981/dissidia-012-duodecim-final-fantasy-prologue-confirmed-for-the-west.html this article]] about the DissidiaFinalFantasy sequel (prequel at that) alludes to "a fan question". Said question was asked on the European Playstation Blog by an user, "Alex PSN 89", that is, none other than ''me''. Somehow, indirectly, I managed to get famous.

G'd evening, gentlemen and ladies. This is Alex/Sora 89, the Italian troper who brought you, among other things, [[{{It/CarburantePerIncubi}} the Italian page for]] NightmareFuel, the various page-images that now decorate some of the pages (including panels from the [[CrackFic 34th issue]] of WhatIf) and even ''created'' some of the articles (see: {{Powerless}} and BulletPoints). Oh, and those quotes by Italian comedian Omar Fantini about TheEighties? My doing! My most recent work, as of this edit, is the {{Brentalfloss}} page.

** AlexSora89: no problem, bro. I'm more than open to being corrected whenever I do anything wrong. The only thing that kinda pisses me is that the "put YMMV tropes into separate pages" is actually pretty darn confusing, given the sheer number of subjective tropes (not that sheer, but still hard to remember). And since everything is relative, we could even argue whether a character is LawfulGood or whatever. The subtle trope differences are a bit ''too'' subtle at times, remembering them is even harder and tropes tend to overlap pretty much all the time. Do you think you can put up with my long learning times about this? I apologise in advance for everything... and until I get used to how tropes actually work, I'll be happy if you just undo my edits if they are wrong.



** @/MrDeath: To add to this, I'd just say to think twice about edits you're about to make if you're putting in "adding a {{wallbang|er}}y detail" in the edit reasons or something similar. And if you're not sure, just check the page of the trope you're looking to add. If it's not allowed on a main page, it says so right on the top.

* Thing is, my advice is that anytime you think of adding a Trope that it's gonna come off as a rant, you should really take it to the YMMV page. If there's a reason for the trope, nobody will delete it. But even then, I think you should try to be more tactful. Think about it, okay?

*{{Tropers/Alexlayer}}: Hi, Alex Sora. This is about your neglected edits in the Dissidia Articles later. I thought I'd try to talk with you about the reasons. You see, it's not that your oppinions aren't valid. In fact, I can perfectly see where most of your complains come from. Thing is, when you go and put them around the main article or the character page, well... you're just being ''too'' negative about it, mostly in ways people won't relate to, let alone agree. To put an example, when you mentioned Tifa being TheWesley, you made it sound like she could have been blamed if the game would have not been made. Not to mention, that which you pointed out may go with the "Author's favorite character" of TheWesley, but not with its other half, that is that fans usually hate this character, while Tifa isn't widely hated (I know some do, like with EVERYONE in the FinalFantasy series, but she's hardly a prominent example). See what I mean? It comes off like you just want to rant and complain, not actually contribute to the article.

Sure thing.
G'd evening, gentlemen and ladies. This is Alex/Sora 89, the Italian troper who brought you, among other things, [[{{It/CarburantePerIncubi}} the Italian page for]] NightmareFuel, the various page-images that now decorate some of the pages (including panels from the [[CrackFic 34th issue]] of WhatIf) and even ''created'' some of the articles (see: {{Powerless}} and BulletPoints). Oh, and those quotes by Italian comedian Omar Fantini about TheEighties? My doing!

But please, take a seat, and -- ya know what? Now that you're here, have some tea while I talk about, uh, myself.

You may have thought that such an introduction that you're reading about your typical SmallNameBigEgo guy, but it's actually quite the opposite - not only there's a ridiculous amount of SelfDeprecation when talking about either my skills or my flaws, but my tendency to apologise for even the least significant of mistakes makes me a male example of YamatoNadeshiko, too - believe it or not.

I used to be a ButtMonkey at school, but somehow IGotBetter and now I'm done with books. [[BookDumb Thankfully.]] However, my last school year has been made rougher by a textbook example of the JerkJock to the point I nicknamed him the "quintessential jerk". However, after [[NeedsMoreLove years]] of [[LoveHurts waiti]][[AllLoveIsUnrequited ng for]] a girlfriend (because of [[{{Gonk}} my looks]]), I finally received my first, TrueLovesKiss. ''[[BeyondTheImpossible When I was almost nineteen.]]''

Still, now things are going nicely between me and, [[{{Woolseyism}} for lack of a better English name]], Faith. Our dates tend to border on SickeninglySweethearts, reaching TastesLikeDiabetes levels.

Given that, for me, now school's out ''for real'', I think it's time for me to look for a job - despite my dream is to start my own webcomic and make a living out of it (à la [[QuestionableContent Jeph Jacques]]/PennyArcade), since [[{{Otaku}} the-stuff-you-are-likely-to-find-at-comic-cons]] has been my passion since my very birth and I've drawn stuff since I was a 4th-grader.

I've been anonymously lurking the site since, on that fateful day, [[TheOtherWiki Wikipedia]] brought me here through an external link. After [[NonstandardGameOver the first page]] of this website I browsed... [[WikiWalk well,]] [[TheTetrisEffect you know...]] [[TvTropesWillRuinYourLife nothing has ever been the same anymore]].

You can find me on various sites:
* [[http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100000568252254&ref=search my Facebook account]] (if you ask my friendship without having ever met me in person, then just send me a message in order to tell me [[SophisticatedAsHell who the hel]][[LastSecondWordSwap -lo you are]]);
* [[http://www.brawlsnapshots.com/users/2943 my Brawl Snapshots]] account, that sadly [[ScheduleSlip I'm not uploading for now]] [[TvTropesWillRuinYourLife (for]] [[SuperMarioGalaxy2 some]] [[NewSuperMarioBrosWii reason)]].
* [[http://alex-sora-89.deviantart.com/ my currently-empty DevianTART account]], though only time will tell if my Webcomic will start there;
* Italian-speaking folks may also have seen "Alex*Sora*89" on the Italian ''Forumcommunity'' fora, or on the Italian Playstation Blog (where I usually rant about [[NoExportForYou the status]] of the European PlaystationStore.

!! This Troper [[TruthInTelevision actually shows]] the following Tropes (among others):

* {{Adorkable}}: subverted, in that such a trope ''never'' got me a girlfriend. [[IGotBetter Then Faith arrived...]]
* AudioErotica: playing with small action figure, inside any CrackFic my mind could have generated when I was a child playing with his toys, as time passes, made me somewhat of a ManOfAThousandVoices - one of which can get ''[[{{Understatement}} very, very deep]]'' sometimes.
* CloudCuckoolander: holy wow. Sometimes my actual sanity is questioned - and for good reason.
* NerdsAreSexy: well, I'm more of an {{Otaku}} than an actual {{Nerd}}, but there you go.
* ProudToBeAGeek: '''''YOU CAN BET YOUR BALLS.'''''
* TheWoobie: if you consider my past at school, sometimes you may want to hug me. Then, you'll ask yourself why you're hugging such a {{Gonk}}.
