5 | !!Tropes applicable to {{This Troper}} |
6 | * [[AttentionDeficitOohShiny Attention Deficit Disorder]]: Semi-officially diagnosed with legal medication! Really manifests as an inability to attention in class for very long. |
7 | * {{Born Lucky}}: As I like to say, my luck kicks in exclusively in two areas of my life: Those completely useless to it, such as video games, and those completely critical to it, such as academic grades. |
8 | * CasualDangerDialogue: During a severe car accident on an icy road, the collision caused the car to spin rapidly. This Troper went something along the line of: "Wheeee! MagicSchoolBus!" |
9 | * CatchPhrase: According to my friends, I say "by default" and "let me put it this way" a lot. |
10 | * {{Chaotic Neutral}}: I despise bureaucracy. I like freedom. Everyone should be able to do their own thing. |
11 | * DeadlyUpgrade: Adderall significantly jacks up my blood pressure and heart beat but makes me do homework and tests perfectly and fills me with initiative that I normally lack. It would be naive to assume there would be no long-term consequences. I like to think that it takes a day off my life in exchange for temporary awesomeness. |
12 | * DeadpanSnarker: When my jokes aren't nonsequiturs or being whimsical, they tend to be sarcastic or cynical. |
13 | * {{Forgets To Eat}}: Minimal appetite at best, then Adderall nukes what's left of it. Further complicated by how I really only eat because I like the taste of certain things... |
14 | * JerkWithAHeartOfGold: When I feel like flattering myself. |
15 | * [[MustHaveCaffeine Must Have Ice Tea]]: Ideally, Arizona green tea. But any ice tea will do. Snapple, Nestea... Clearly, not very picky. Coffee is evil though. |
16 | * TrademarkFavouriteFood: Soup. Or see above. |
17 | * [[OrdinaryHighSchoolStudent Ordinary University Student]] |
18 | * {{The Stoic}}: After taking Adderall, becomes this for the day. |
19 | * SuperMode: Adderall makes me super productive and super attentive. |
20 | |
21 | !!Games Played |
22 | * {{Total War}}: Rome, Empire, Napoleon. |
23 | * {{Deus Ex Human Revolution}}: Choice, stealth, gunplay? How could I not like it? |
24 | * {{Halo}}: Probably my first mature game after N64, so I have a special lifelong attachment to the series. |
25 | * {{Splinter Cell}}: Double Agent was terrible. Chaos Theory was excellent, probably the best. Conviction has its own charms, but it is a drastic departure from the series norm. They should just make two different games. One more stealthy, one more action-oriented. |
26 | * {{Warhammer40000}}: Just the Dawn of War series. No tabletop, though I wouldn't mind trying sometime. |
27 | ** Also I adore the {{Eisenhorn}} series. I liked it more than {{Ravenor}} actually. Waiting on the Bequin trilogy. |
28 | * {{Fire Emblem}}: All the US versions. Disliked Sacred Stones. Thinks Radiant Dawn is the best. Well, besides from the lack of real support conversations. Hope they make a new one with its mechanics soon, instead of all those remakes. I want 3rd tier promotions to become standard! Come on! Doooo it! |
29 | * [[AssassinsCreed Assassin's Creed]]: 2 was good. Only problem I had with it was the health system. I liked the 1st one's better, but hey, whatever. |
30 | * {{Mass Effect}}: Thought the 1st was a decent attempt, but wasn't very thrilled with it. The 2nd... WOW. The combat blew me away. Loved it. |
31 | * {{Gears of War}}: Eh, standard overly-testosterone driven game. But I play it just because it's something to do. Probably desensitized me to gore, primarily limbs and heads getting cut off and exploding, which let me play... |
32 | * {{Dead Space}}: This was a terrifying game to play through. Also, my first real horror game, which is quite a step for someone who hates horror movies. |
33 | * {{Prototype}}: The Web of Intrigue is such a nice game plot mechanic. Wish there was a better way to navigate the Web, as well as playing videos in the Web. |
34 | * {{LeagueofLegends}}: In which I run around and try to play well enough to not get yelled at by my teammates. |
35 | |
36 | !!Shows Watched |
37 | * {{One Piece}}: Best anime/manga ever in my honest opinion. |
38 | * {{Darker Than Black}}: I was (still am) so thrilled by how the protagonist in Japanese (or really, any non-Chinese series) is Chinese. Love the fight scenes and the concept of Contractors. Wrote a basic program that assigned an ability and payment based on personal stats. Good times. |
39 | * {{Chuck}}: This is probably my favorite live-action show. This or... |
40 | * {{Burn Notice}}: Entertaining, feels like it actually goes somewhere (even when it doesn't), unlike... |
41 | * {{Lost}}: Watched it out of curiosity of its popularity. Only got to the end of Season 3. Thought it dragged on forever. Then I watched the finale of the series and it still made perfect sense. This fact is rather saddening. Overall, I think it's OK, maybe even good, but not really a fan of it. I seem to watch shows starring doctors like... |
42 | * {{House}}: Good, but then it got repetitive. Sorry, House. |
43 | * {{Family Guy}}: I like absurdist humor. |
44 | * {{American Dad}}: Might as well watch something else by Family Guy people. |
45 | * IronChef: This and other random shows on the FoodNetwork make me want to eat. |
46 | * TheDailyShow: Used to watch it all the time. Still a fan, just that my schedule screws it up. |
47 | * TheColbertReport: Ditto the above. |
48 | * MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic: Pretty got into it the standard way. "What is this thing taking over the Internet? Let's go watch it!" Such a happy show. |
