I've always liked disseminating patterns within fiction, so TVTropes is one of my favourite websites.

One of my favourite sites. Whenever I finish a show I don't hate, I look up its entry on tvtropes.org.

I like to read it once in a while.

Tropes that apply to me:
Cloudcuckoolander (Borderline.)
Knight In Sour Armor
Jerk with a Heart of Gold
Big Eater (Justified in that I seem to almost always hear my stomach growling.)
BadButt (I myself don't really like to swear.)
Tsundere (Type B.)
Sesquipedalian Loquaciousness (Teamed up with a few malapropisms for extra awesome!)
Genius Ditz (Mostly genius.)
Chaotic Good

What tropes apply to you?

Genius Ditz | Hold the "ditz", and make that to go.
Keet In Sour Armor
Large Ham
Cloudcuckoolander
Lightning Warrior | In the "Last To Post Wins" topic.
Neutral Good
Pungeon Master
Screwy Squirrel
Sesquipedalian Loquaciousness
Wild Card
Cloudcuckoolander

I'd say the website ruined my life, but I never had much of a life in the first place.

This site has given me so much to laugh it and think about in regards to my favorite movies and shows.

I can't say I'm a "fan" of the site because some of the writing annoys me, and sometimes I can think of seemingly obvious examples that are missing from a page. I was on it just last night (nothing else to do) and that was actually the first time I saw an entry that applied to me: Intelligence Equals Isolation. It really weirded me out. 8O

I do come to that site, not just to read but to also edit stuff if there's any additions, typos or errors.
I do have a page of my own here where it also has the tropes that apply to myself, and yes they have a useful notes about Aspergers in the site too.

TV Tropes can keep you hooked for hours thanks to tabbed browsing. :) Also, the site made me want a badass longcoat.

Did anyone else see that image on cracked a while ago about tv tropes with tabbed browsing disabled?

I actually have an account there ("Peridonyx").

I'm especially a big fan of the AntiHero and AntiVillain tropes.

Yes! I have to thank the people on WP whom I'd never had known this site existed if not for them. Although I mostly read the stuff their So Bad, It's Horrible section. :lol: Sometimes I imagine about how my own stories, cartoons and characters would be called even though I know they will never be famous or popular anywhere. I guess that's better than them being labeled so bad, it's horrible though. :?
