10	... {{Hello}}. I, Amazing Lagann, The Storyteller, found this site... a long time ago... or at least it's [[TvtropesWillRuinYourLife felt like that]]. My computer is always on, and I am on a constant {{Wiki Walk}}. I almost never have less than ten tabs open on TvTropes at one time. And once I start, [[SincerityMode it can go up to 60]]. Then it takes me several hours to whittle it down to about 20 again. I guess that's why I think it's been so long, I've spent so much time here, but really, it's only been since 2011. I was brought here by BitterSweetCandyBowl, the author Taeshi mentioned that she got a TvTropes page, and I came here.
11
12	My favorite animals are [[MostWritersAreHuman Humans]]. I'm sometimes an {{atheist}}, but for the rest of the time I'm agnostic. I believe in [[{{Jedi}} Jediism]], and [[GurrenLagann Kaminalogy]]. I'm a gamer, philosopher, storyteller, and artist (I box too). But most of all, I like to think. I tend to be a bit bipolar with what I want. To be outgoing, or not to be? To want a girlfriend, or not? To be happy, or serious? Some days, it changes. I hate ignorance, and love critical thinking.
13
14	A lot of the time, I have trouble discerning what is real and whats not. Is this a dream, am I dreaming during the day? Is this a figment of my imagination? Am I in my own story? The only thing I know is real all the time is TvTropes.
15	----
16
17	Tropes that apply to me:
18
19	* ReluctantWarrior: I dislike fighting, and I don't think it's way to solve problems, but I will fight if it's necessary. If nobody fought, the world would be peaceful, but some people [[DarkKnight just want to watch the world burn]]. And we have to protect ourselves.
20	* TheAntiNihilist: I tend to quote FriedrichNietzsche a lot, but I'm not a cynical as him.
21	* HotBlooded: '''If I yell loud enough, I can do ANYTHING!'''
22
23	!Gaming
24	* I love to play {{Battlefield 3}} (on X-box, it's all I can afford) and have first place dog tags (50 or more 1st place out of 24). I get first place often when I'm trying because I love tactics and preying on human instinct. I also like to go into a trance state when I'm gaming. I preform really well when I find that comfortable balance between thinking and letting go.
25	* I'm playing through DeusExHumanRevolution right now.
26	* I'm also lost in the land of {{Skyrim}}. It's kind of dangerous, because for a while, after long play sessions I would say "If I get hurt, I can just revert to the [[SaveScumming last save]]... Wait".
27	* Still playing MonsterHunterTri.
28
29	!Media
30	I can basically get into anything. Si-Fi, Romance, comic books, anime, manga, movies, whatever.
31
32	* Favorite Movie: {{Inception}}, MontyPythonAndTheHolyGrail
33	* Favorite Book: TheColourOfMagic, EndersGame
34	* Favorite Anime: TengenToppaGurrenLagann, SpiceAndWolf, AnoHana
35	* Favorite Manga: RosarioToVampire
36	* Favorite TV Show: {{Psych}}, TheMentalist, MythBusters
37	* Favorite Western Animation: InvaderZim
38	* Favorite Video Game: {{Okami}}, {{Skyrim}}
39	* Favorite Webcomic: BitterSweetCandyBowl
