3 | Hi, I'm Infinity League - just call me IL. I'm a queer, autistic New Englander with a strong fondness for animation, gaming, film, and other forms of entertainment (also politics, but I'm told that's not to be discussed here). I've been going to TV Tropes since at least 2009 (remember when SoYeah was a thing? I do), and I've seen many tropes come and go, so despite only having been an official Troper for a short while (7 months as of November 2018), I know most of the ins and outs of this wiki. |

147 | !!TROPES THAT DESCRIBE ME |
148 | * TheAntiNihilist: My philosophy in a nutshell: the universe is chaotic and uncontrollable, which is why we should make the effort to help others and use our position to stand up for those who cannot defend themselves. After all, [[ComicBook/SpiderMan with great power, there must also come great responsibility!]] |
149 | * BerserkButton: I have many, but explicit bigotry, stereotyping, willful ignorance, and sexual violence are all easy ways to make me your enemy. I also have very little patience for [[FanHater fandom bashing]] of any kind. |
150 | * BurgerFool: My experience working in fast food (sorry, [[Series/{{Seinfeld}} "good food made quickly"]]) has given me no shortage of stress. |
151 | * CelebrityResemblance: Once, when I was working the drive-thru at Wendy's, a customer called me Batman for some reason (I gave him his change, and he said "Thanks, Batman" before driving off.) I told this story multiple times, and no fewer than three people responded by telling me that I look like a young Creator/MichaelKeaton. |
152 | ** My father, meanwhile, has been mistaken for [[Music/FooFighters Dave Grohl]]. |
153 | * CurtainsMatchTheWindow: Brown eyes and dark brown hair. |
154 | * DeadpanSnarker: I've been known to be very snarky at times. I get it from my mother. |
155 | * GrammarNazi: Yes and no. Grammar and spelling are somewhat SeriousBusiness to me -- few things annoy me more than people who get their homophones mixed up -- but I'm not one of those [[StopBeingStereotypical insufferable pedants who will jump down your throat for committing the most minor violations of obsolete grammatical rules]]. I consider myself an aestheticist first and a grammarian second, and sometimes what's considered to be grammatically proper is also awkward or unpleasing to read or say. None of the rules pertaining to the English language are set in stone anyway, so standards of grammatical propriety (like PrepositionsAreNotToEndSentencesWith) are completely arbitrary. |
156 | * GratuitousItalian: I tend to delve into this on occasion - specifically, [[Film/IngloriousBasterds "bawnjorno" ("good morning"), "grazzie" ("thank you"), "arrivaderci" ("goodbye")]], "prego" ("you're welcome"), "mingya" (an exclamation equivalent to "Goddamn it" or "Come on!"), "culo" ("ass"), "cazzo" ("dick"), and "stronzo" ("turd", frequently used to mean "asshole" or "idiot") are my personal favorites. |
157 | * HollywoodAutism: HaHaHaNo. I've been officially diagnosed with UsefulNotes/AspergersSyndrome, but I can tell you firsthand the stereotypes are complete bullshit. |
158 | * HollywoodNewEngland: Well, I have the accent (though it's not very noticeable most of the time), I'm a big fan of Boston sports teams, and I and my whole family borderline worship UsefulNotes/JohnFKennedy and his family. That said, I defy other stereotypes: I can't stand seafood, and my family's accents sound nothing like you'd hear on TV (in fact, my Dad's accent tends to overlap with Brooklyn much of the time.) |
159 | * ItaliansTalkWithHands: I have 50% Italian heritage, and I tend to gesticulate a lot. |
160 | * LargeHam: To the point where my friends have told me that I should consider becoming an actor. |
161 | * MotorMouth: I've been known to talk really fast at times. |
162 | * NoIndoorVoice: I also tend to be really loud at times. I get it from my father. |
163 | * {{Oireland}}: I'm very in-touch with my (25%) Irish heritage, and I’m not afraid to make jokes about the stereotypes, especially around St. Patrick’s Day. |
164 | * OneTruePairing: After much deliberation, I’ve come to the conclusion that [[WesternAnimation/OKKOLetsBeHeroes Lord Boxman and Professor Venomous]] are my favorite ship in anything, ever. They’re both amazing characters in their own right, which would be enough, but they have perfect romantic chemistry together, and they give each other what they’ve always needed (Boxman provides PV with much-needed validation and the reignited passion for villainy that Venomous thought he lost, and PV helps Boxman be a more effective villain.) Also, despite their being “the bad guys,” the episodes that showcase their relationship are among the most heartwarming in the entire series. |
165 | * PrecisionFStrike: One of my goddamned specialties. |
166 | * PrettyFlyForAWhiteGuy: I'm a white dude who really enjoys hip-hop. I try not to be superficial about it, however, and I genuinely enjoy the music and understand the subculture behind it - and some of the white people who do act out the "wigger" stereotype (i.e. Music/VanillaIce, Kevin Federline, Music/PostMalone, and [[Film/Deadpool2 Black Tom]]) [[StopBeingStereotypical REALLY piss me off]]. Also, I would NEVER even think of [[NWordPrivileges using the N-word]]. |
167 | * PungeonMaster: Another trait I got from my mother is my [[SelfDemonstratingArticle "Punchant" for "Punitively" "Punishing" puns.]] When I really get going, I can be like [[WesternAnimation/TheLoudHouse Luan Loud.]] |
168 | * SadClown: I have no shortage of problems in my life, and my sense of humor helps me cope with them. |
169 | * SesquipedalianLoquaciousness: I'm not averse to excessive erudition sufficient to elucidate advantageous talking points, much to the consternation of the less genteel amongst my peers. |
170 | * SophisticatedAsHell: On the one hand, [[SesquipedalianLoquaciousness I prefer to eschew obfuscation and espouse elucitadion]], and [[GrammarNazi proper spelling and grammar are a must for me]]. On the other hand, [[SirSwearsALot I really fucking love my goddamned profanity]] and I've got vast reserves of slang and pop culture references. Any conversation with me is bound to result in a weird mishmash of this trope. |
171 | * StraightGay: People are often very surprised when I tell them I'm bi. |
172 | * VerbalTic: When I'm trying to explain something, I often rely on placeholders like "er" and "uh" while organizing my thoughts. I also used to end sentences with "and all that" (and I personally blame Creator/KarlPilkington for rubbing off on me in that regard), and I currently tend to call people "dude" and "bro" a lot. Because I'm a New Englander, I also tend to use "wicked" as an all-purpose adjective. |
173 | * WaxingLyrical: If I can think of an excuse to quote song lyrics, I will do so. For example, here's an exchange I had with my father over the phone when I went off to college: |
174 | -->'''Dad:''' When are you coming home?\ |
