When I accidentally did a closet cosplay of Gerry Carroll and I had to do the pose too.

Warning, the below is the troper page of a Sir Swears-a-Lot! F-words and C-words abound.

Hi I'm TC! Nice to meet you! I'm 26 and I've been on these forums since late 2015, believe it or not. Right now my biggest obsession is The Newsreader so be prepared for a lot of that.

My pronouns are he/him. I'm your local friendly queer bipolar troper from Melbourne, Australia. I'm (mostly) an open book!

TERFs and Zionists can fuck off. Trans men are men, trans women are women, and Palestine will be free. If you're an Aussie who voted no in the recent voice to parliament referendum you can also fuck off.

Tropes are stored in the TC

Awesome Aussie
Berserk Button: Neo-liberalism, capitalism, climate change deniers, landlords, cops, fascists, tankies, Zionists and Sydneysiders
- Logan apologists
- Comic purists in the Preacher fandom who disavow fans who prefer the series
The Bogan: Arguably. I did have a mullet for awhile, enjoy copious amounts of shitty booze, use the word cunt like it's punctuation and love a good game of footy. But I'm too much of a twat to be a true bogan.
Buffy Speak
Camp Bi
Celeb Crush: Arian Moayed
Country Matters: I'm Australian, so I have to say cunt every five minutes or I lose my citizenship. I also just love the word.
Eating the Eye Candy: I am not immune to good looking people, and I will watch absolute trash just to see hot people. I didn't even like Fellow Travelers but it was a bunch of hot gay men boning of course I was gonna tune in.
Ethical Slut
Fanboy
Fan Hater: I have nothing but bad things to say about the Our Flag Means Death fandom.
Have I Mentioned I Am Bisexual?
Hipster: Most of my friends lovingly point out that I can be a pretentious cunt.
Hipster Glasses
Likes Older Men/Likes Older Women: Gimme them DILFs, MILFs, and GILFs.
Looking for Love in All the Wrong Places: In an amazing subversion of Nerds Are Virgins, I've had multiple disastrous relationships. Getting better though, thanks to the saving grace of Polyamory.
Massively Numbered Siblings: I am the second youngest of 11.
Mood-Swinger: I have bipolar, which makes.my life a living hell.
Most Fanfic Writers Are Fans: After years of not writing fanfic, I decided to write fanfic about a show that's based off of Newscorp? Yes, I'm ashamed.
Most Fanfic Writers Are Girls: Subverted. I'm not a girl, but I am a sappy, love dovey, shipping obsessed mess of a person so I can't say I don't conform to some of the stereotypes.
Motor Mouth
One True Pairing: Kendall/Stewy, Gerry/Carla
The Otter
Raised Catholic
Redheads Are Uncool
Running Gag: I love mentioning my hatred of Sydney at any opportunity.
Saw "The Castle" 27 Times
Signature Headgear: Unless I'm at the club, or asleep, I'm usually rocking my bluetooth headphones. Yes, even around the house.
Sir Swears-a-Lot: The fuck you gonna do about it, cunt?
Smoking Is Cool: Listen. I know I need to quit, but you can't deny I look awesome as fuck.
- Smoking Is Not Cool: I've been ciggie free for a year!
Street Musician
Virtuous Vegetarianism: I don't eat meat for ethical reasons, and I'm planning on eventually transitioning to veganism.

Favourite tropes (work in progress)

Addled Addict: A lot of my favourite characters seem to have substance abuse issues for some reason.
Ambiguous Disorder: I have love characters who clearly have something wrong with them.
Answer Cut
Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking
Awesome Aussie: My favourite movie is literally The Castle, which is about as Australian as you can get, plus one of my favourite characters is literally Albert Crundall, who's the most ocker Australian character in an already very Aussie book/film/TV series
Big, Stupid Doodoo-Head
Break the Comedian: see Proinsias Cassidy, Stewy Hosseini, Roman Roy and Gerry Carroll for examples!
Brick Joke
British Brevity: I hate long seasons of shows. You'll notice most of my favourite shows have seasons of 12 episodes or less.
Crazy-Prepared
Country Matters
Deadpan Snarker: A lot of my favourite characters are this, but my real favourite snarker is Ben Folds. Listen to Rockin' The Suburbs and tell me you don't love his snark game.
Department of Redundancy Department
Dramedy
Inferiority Superiority Complex
Oop North: My love of the show Brassic, which is set in rural Lancashire, is a testament to this, as is my love of Jamie Tartt who has a stroooong Mancunian accent that I'm sort of in love with.
Overly Long Gag
Prone to Tears
"Well Done, Son" Guy
Wimp Fight
The Woobie
- Jerkass Woobie: See my love of Kendall Roy and Jamie Tartt. And arguably Bernard Black, if you squint.
