* WhatTheHellIsThatAccent: I speak SurprisinglyGoodEnglish for a German (it ''might'' have to do with the fact that my dad only spoke English with me until a few years ago), but I need some time to "settle into" my normal General American accent. Anything said before that will be the ugliest possible mix of General American, the British English I was taught at school (particularly egregious with words like "can't"), and my personal accent quirks. It's kind of a reverse OohMeAccentsSlipping.

* [[FountainOfMemes Fountain of]] {{In Joke}}s: the Japanese textbook I'm trying to learn Japanese with. Emphasis on the "trying", because the "class" consists of me, my dad and a CoolTeacher (who actually still used to study Japanese when we started). The listening comprehension CD was voiced by a cast of {{TheIncomprehensible}}s. The sentences are weird. The characters have all the character of textbook characters. (I use the word character way too often.) The end result are {{AlternateCharacterInterpretation}}s such as Ari who becomes a MemeticMolester; or the creation of the Shinkansen Monks and their chant of "とうきょう と きょうと と とうきょう..." (" tōkyō to kyōto to tōkyō ..." - Tokyo and Kyoto and Tokyo and...); and last but not least the Lost Wisdom of Confucius: [[CaptainObvious "One day has twenty-four hours."]]
* LadyLooksLikeADude, apparently. The combination of short hair, flattish chest, RealGirlsDontWearDresses and general tendency to wear unflattering/figure-concealing clothes have led to me being called "that guy" or "the young gentleman"... Apparently, when I ''do'' wear a dress, I don't look too bad, though.

In case you actually want to know stuff about me:
!!Tropes applying to me:
* AdjustingYourGlasses, type 3 (by the bridge). Becoming that much of a habit that I do it even when not wearing glasses, in which case it's more like "Adjusting my- Oops!"
* LadyLooksLikeADude, apparently. Short hair & flattish chest have led to me being called "that guy" or "the young gentleman"...
* RealisticDictionIsUnrealistic: averted. Even when not falling into WhatTheHellIsThatAccent territory, I'm mumbling and slurring and pausing at the... weirdest places. Used to actually play it straight as a kid, sometimes falling into SpockSpeak ("Do you have a boo-boo?" "No, that is a ''wound''.")
* SmartPeopleWearGlasses - I definitely ''look'' more intellectual with the glasses, and my grades aren't ''that'' bad.
