4
5	!!shgurr provides examples of:
6
7	* AdultsAreUseless: Had this attitude, in large part because most of the adults she knew growing up were completely oblivious to her.
8	* AgonyOfTheFeet: Shannon has a condition in her feet regarding her tendons. And on at least one occasion, she accidentally banged her shin into a cinder block.
9	* BreakTheCutie: Shannon's experiences of bullying and depression challenged her emotionally but also led to personal growth and resilience.
10	* CuteKitten:
11	** She has two pet cats, Snake and Ghost.
12	*** There's even an Instagram blog for [[https://www.instagram.com/snake_the_mainecoon/ Snake]] and [[https://www.instagram.com/ghost.kitty11/ Ghost]]
13	** She's now gotten a new cat named Oreo.
14	* CynicismCatalyst: A FalseFriend not inviting Shannon to her birthday party because it was only for "cool kids" caused Shannon to come to the utterly wrong conclusion that friendship didn't exist, which screwed her life up until she was ''21''.
15	* {{Determinator}}: She has been determined to overcome her depression, pursue her passion for animation, and build a successful [=YouTube=] channel.
16	* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: Her earliest videos are a mix of memes and VideoGame/FiveNightsAtFreddys animations, before doing {{Storytime Animat\|ors}}ions.
17	* EvenTheGirlsWantHer: One time while working at Dollar Tree. She was hit on by an elderly drunk woman completely out of the blue.
18	* GenkiGirl: She's a really joyful and energetic person, despite her troubled past.
19	* HappilyFailedSuicide: At one point, she almost committed suicide by deliberately crashing a car off a mountain pass, but thoughts of her little brother brought her to her senses at the last minute. It was mere months after this that her healing process began, and she's now glad she couldn't bring herself to do it.
20	* HeterosexualLifePartners: With her roommate Meghan. And it's not surprising; Meghan helped bring her out of a deep, dark pit of misery and became her first true friend.
21	* HiddenDepths: She went on journey from a period of self-isolation and misery to finding hope, purpose, and emotional growth through her [=YouTube=] channel and interactions with others.
22	* HoistByHisOwnPetard: The titular "Lemon Boi" who [[TemptingFate bragged that Shannon couldn't beat him in a lemon squeezing contest]], riling the previously-uninterested Shannon up and causing her to compete with him. This may have also caused him to spill his cup, costing him the contest even if Shannon hadn't won.
23	* {{Irony}}: In high school, she and 2 other students were publicly shamed for being inconsiderate of the less fortunate. When they themselves were less fortunate because of their home lives (food was too essential for them to give up, they couldn't afford it, and Shannon's parents had too many mouths to feed to give up).
24	* LGBTCreators: Shannon is demisexual and biromantic.
25	* KidsAreCruel: Shannon was bullied and [[AllOfTheOtherReindeer shunned]] by kids her age so consistently and for so long that she ended up thinking friendship didn't exist and shutting herself off from other people. She was ''21'' when she learned that genuinely nice people do exist.
26	* MassiveNumberedSiblings: She's one of ten children.
27	* RefugeInAudacity: Shared two of these in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vWHUtvwr4q0 I Live in a Dollhouse]].
28	* TheReveal: Shannon's disclosure of her demisexual, biromantic, and asexual spectrum identity, as well as being neurodivergent with autism and ADHD contributes to her unique perspective and experiences.
29	* SpecialGuest:
30	** In [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ODe8ZGAyWlU Retail]], there was WebAnimation/TheOdd1sOut, isketchi, and motionwarrior.
31	** In [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dZfSBmOQsUU Sportz]] there was WebAnimation/JaidenAnimations.
32	* {{Squee}}: She does this a lot when she thinks something is really cute.
33	* StockShoujoBullyingTactics: An immense victim of this.
34	* TraumaCongaLine: Probably the best description of the experiences with other people she describes in her "Draw My Life" videos.
35	* TroubledButCute: Shannon struggles with depression, isolation, and physical pain, while still maintaining a relatable and endearing personality in her videos.
36	* UnderdogsNeverLose: She is able to overcome her difficult childhood, depression, and physical pain to pursue her passion for animation and build a successful [=YouTube=] channel.
37	* VictoryPose: She apparently did a victory dance when she won Foursquare back when she was at school because it was in her own words "customary to do one."
38	* WardrobeMalfunction: Her mom once bought her poor-quality pants that ripped after one kicking motion, exposing her underwear. This happened ''[[RuleOfThree three]] days in a row''. The first two times, she was embarrassed, but the third time, she was just fed up with losing recesses because her pants hadn't survived a full day.
39	* WhatIsThisThingYouCallLove: As a result of her nihilistic mindset at the time, she admits to having been genuinely confused when Meghan first explicitly called her a friend.
