Hi I've been a long time lurker and I'm going to be terrible with editing the wiki tongue So I'll mainly be on the forums.

Nice to meet you Nouct!

And you might not necessarily be bad. There is a Get Help With English Here thread if you have any good ideas, and want to see if they sound good.

Anyway, have fun in the fora! They're awesome! I'm already having a blast!grin

I am heavy troper guy...and this, is my introduction.

You may call me Slysheen, I am a 23 year old biological sciences graduate currently doing the unemployed-college-graduate dance. Hence I have plenty of time to trope. I've probably been lurking for about 4 years, honestly with my hours of fascinated clicking it was a miracle I graduated. For the place I'm a Californian ice cube, really odd for somewhere hot like this but it's workable.

I typically avoid forums since the embittering of the internet as a whole but you guys seem like nice enough people, it wasn't like I was lonely or anything...(Suspiciously Specific Denial). In general I love analyzing, constructing, deconstructing, subverting, and otherwise picking apart media (mostly anime, literature, and video games).

Most of us I imagine have a massive obsession over something, mine's WWII history, I love it all, the technology, the weapons, the tactics, the players, so much so that my ultimate dream is to fly an era fighter plane (Preferably a FW-190) and naturally my favorite band is Sabaton. (Also kudos to whoever made the Stupid Jetpack Hitler trope name, not only is the content fascinating but the name never fails to make me laugh. :)

I would also like to fancy myself as an amateur writer, mostly on a Strike Witches/WWII crossover fanfic after my collab attempt at an original work with a friend fizzled out. Would put it in my sig but every attempt I've made has failed thus far. (Salty old internet goer but absolutely useless at anything close to coding, making my contributor page is going to be...interesting.)

Now that that dump is out of the way lets celebrate some media. cool

(Edit: figured it out, seems the actual profile edit page doesn't display it as will.)

What is your favorite trope? Mine is Lovecraftian Superpower.

Sure, the normal name's a bit of a mouthful anyway, and god you guys are fast posters.

I'm still basically a noob, so here goes.

I'm nbs4. I'm female. I like anime, video games, and hell, pretty much any type of media. I like utilitarian ethics and writing fanfiction. Come talk to me anytime, I won't hurt you.

Seriously. I'm pretty harmless.

Hello! My name is Blueotterkitty, but you can call me Blue. I have been a lurker for a few years, and about a year ago I made this account. However, because I am so socially inept and have had bad past experiences on forums I have simply continued lurking. I am only posting now because I'm worried my account will be deleted due to inactivity, so hooray for silly fears! Even now, my activity will be sporadic because I am both a swimmer and still in school.

I think I first discovered TV Tropes through some sort of connection to Manic Pixie Dream Girl on Wikipedia The Other Wiki or Skepkitty's blog; I tend not to remember the details of cataclysmic events.

Anyway, I am really glad to be here on this site! As I am both a fanfiction and original fiction writer this is my favorite place on the Internet. It's nice to meet you all at last!

EDIT: I'm so bad with this code!
