* {{Adorkable}}: This is an uneasy pleasure, though. Like, is it all right to like someone ''for'' (rather than in spite of) a fault without which they'd have an easier time at things?

* BrainyBrunette: I mean I know what "dehiscence" means, so I'm obviously a super-genius. (I've heard it's in bad taste to pothole to SarcasmMode?)
* CelebCrush: But [[RecycledInSpace on fictional characters]]! Anyone have a how-to book for crushing on ''real'' people? I mean there's probably a how-to book ...
* HomeschoolKid: Because of [[RaisedCatholic religion]] ([[StopBeingStereotypical yup]]), autistic siblings' sensory issues, both my parents having had near-constant horrible experiences at school, and their belief that school as it's been since the early twentieth century was designed to prepare children for factory work and that it may be obsolete what with modern machines and was never humane in the first place. I'll have to research and check that last one ...
* NoSocialSkills: I've somehow wondered why I wasn't diagnosed as being on the autism spectrum when I share so many habits with my brother, other brother, and sister who are all autistic. But self-diagnosis is error-prone and anyway despicable, so let's just say I've got this trope.
* StopBeingStereotypical!: I'm a homeschool student who's religious and sheltered and has social troubles, a girl who's subhuman at math, an American who's fat, and a Troper who's a young nerd, so people can very well have this reaction.
'''Tropes I like in stories:'''
* KnightInSourArmor: I mean [[DiscWorld Sam Vimes]] ...
* BadassBookworm: Wish fulfillment ahoy!
