The first page on TV Tropes I ever visited was Naruto, so whatever was the first trope there was the first trope I saw.

The legend has returned.

Getting Crap Past the Radar. When I was 12, I found any reference to sex amusing even though I didn't really understand it. Now the trope is being reworked to discourage people like tween!me from being immature.

I do some cleanup and then I enjoy shows you probably think are cringe.

Status Quo Is God. The term kept getting mentioned in one of The Mysterious Mr. Enter's 2013 or 2014 videos—it was a Spongebob or Family Guy review, I think—so I looked up the term out of curiosity and discovered this wiki. While I don't watch his content anymore, Mr. Enter is how I discovered TV Tropes.

I believe it was American Kirby Is Hardcore. Saw it through the link in Knowyourmeme.com in the comment section in U.S. Kirby Box Cover entry. The rest is history.

My memory is fuzzy, but I can remember that it was Hailfire Peaks, while the second I was Planet Heck (when it was known as "Bonus Level of Hell"). It was in April 2009, while I was browsing from a cyber cafe in my university during my free hours. I was looking for information on video games, and was curious to know if there was some Internet site noting the similarities between Hailfire Peaks from Banjo-Tooie and Freezeframe Galaxy.

The entire Video Game Tropes page - I was looking for some generic JRPG tropes to riff on and I ended up here. It'd be another few months until I actually got an account for this place.

I actually cannot remember, since it was an external website that lead me here, but I do recall Fartillery being one of them, so let's consider that one the first Trope I saw.

EDIT NOTE: It was back in April 2020 that I actually first saw this website, but it wouldn't be until August that year that I would get an account here.

Not a Trope, but a series. My friend turned me to this site and I saw The ClueFinders page as my first foray into this website. I remember thinking to myself “man, this page is kind of sparse.”

I remember being angry at my parents when I was 11, and tried to find an answer to the question “why are adults so useless?”

Then I stumbled upon Adults Are Useless.

At this point I have no idea, but Hammerspace is a likely candidate. Someone posted a link to the site in the comments of a long-running fandom comic; I'm unsure whether it was Springaling or Handplates, but the former comic used the concept of hammerspace fairly regularly.
