That time I added a meme to Memes.Deltarune and some people on Tumblr talked about it. Yeah, I've done so little on this site that this is my favorite TV Tropes memory.

I just remembered this one.

I remember when the first FLCL hit the airwaves, my younger brother and I thought it was the poster boy for Audience-Alienating Premise. Although in my defense, it was because I didn't have good friends to watch it with. :( By sharp contrast, thanks to everybody in the Toonami Thread, I had a great time watching the second and third ones. grin

My Top 3 is:

  1. Writing a page on Big Bill Hell's and seeing it steadily get edits. That commercial is small in size, but big in our hearts.
  2. Reaching 500,000 articles, with it being a page I made. There was even a Wiki Talk thread for the achievement a while back.
  3. Anytime someone is grateful when I make a page for anything.

Currently mostly inactive. An incremental game I tested: https://galaxy.click/play/176 (Gods of Incremental)

When I made forum threads as a newbie and actually gather good discussion around them. First was about the Encounters namespace, but the thread died off early this month.

Also, the first time I created a whole Playing With page. Laconics were already something, and I've made several of them, but this... has not gotten any edits that aren't from me.

The only thing I can think of right now… is joining TVT as my true self. (And just about everything thereafter, haha.)

I once spent hours just laughing my ass off at the The Problem with Pen Island entries. Stumbling upon a random JFF page was always magical back then, because it was uncovering a funny part of the site I never knew existed and just enjoying the ride.

Ah, TPWPI pages... I had a good laugh when I misread "Accident Al" as "Accident AI". Unfortunately, there were too many typos for me to truly enjoy it.

Bump with another one I remembered. I still remember and like the compliment one of the tropers gave me about my books. :) He said they're like an interesting combination of Dragon Ball Z and JoJo's Bizarre Adventure. cool

I still remember and like the two answers I got in the History Thread that one time. :)

My entry: What was it that inspired Jack Churchill to fight with medieval weapons in World War II?
First answer: Because he was batshit.
Second answer: He was probably of the belief that those were more elegant weapons for a more civilized age. tongue

I just remembered this one. :) One time I said that it was Kramer's fault that the Seinfeld Gang went to jail in the series finale because he had to hop. He had to HOP ON THE PLANE!!! Then somebody replied by quoting Samuel L. Jackson's angry speech from Snakes on a Plane by replacing "snakes" with "hops." XD

Bumping this thread with another one I remembered. Even though Dethroning Moment of Suck is about our least favorite moments, it still has some funny parts. [tup] Especially when the page had more of a conversationalist vibe when it was first written. This one was one of my favorites. :)

My entry: Yeah, Peter's just lucky he's the main character of Family Guy. In any other show, he'd be the villain. No, he really would. Just paint his skin a disgusting shade of green, put a nasty-looking sword in his hands, and you've got yourself an honest-to-badness Great Unclean One.
The reply I got: Don't insult Nurgle's children like that.

When NightmareFuel.Advertising played a part in tracking down the long-lost "Demon lady" commercial (the first entry listed under the Health Products section), that was pretty epic.

Bump. I just remembered another one. One time, Major Tom gave me a reassuring explanation that we actually have nothing to fear from the Yellowstone Volcano. As he put it, in a manner of speaking, the Yellowstone Volcano ran out of fuel since it's not a hotspot like the Hawaii volcanoes. So the bad news is the Yellowstone Volcano WILL erupt sometime in the next thousand years. x_x But the good news is it WON'T be a supervolcanic one. [tup]

May be a bit mean, but the halcyon days when there used to be Troper Tales pages, especially the one for Crowning Moment Of Awesome. There were so many very real and totally not made up stories on there (often potholed to I Am Not Making This Up) of This Troper performing the most improbable feats of heroism...hell, at the end of some of them, everybody even clapped! My favorite was the one about a young kid and their class supposedly attacking and overwhelming an armed intruder in the school. Classic.

How dare you disrupt the sanctity of my soliloquy?

I was about to object to the above post (Because I thought we were in the "Entries that make you go "Lol"" Thread and thus bashing) and then I saw this was a more positive thread and realized it was kosher.
