Day 27 & Day 28 & more tropes
Oct. 12th, 2010 11:26 pmSince nobody replied to the meme (sadface) I amused myself by compiling this non-exhaustive list or tropes that apply to me. In 3rd person.
( Now for Day 27 & Day 28 of the meme... )
Incidentally, it looks like the next show in my watch list will be The Big Bang Theory, on account of lots of people in my class at uni liking it. Geek show, joy! (Nevermind that I'm one myself.)
And I've watched almost all of this season's new anime, apart from maybe Togainu no Chi, but only because my brother is still debating whether to watch it or not. I bet he won't, or if he does he'll drop it at once. Nothing special so far.
- Adult Child - OMFG A GIANT STUFFED DUCKY PLUSHIE! I want it for my birthday! My 21st birthday...
- Cloud Cuckoo Lander
- Covert Pervert - nobody ever expects the quiet bespectacled girl to read porn; let's keep it that way
- Deadpan Snarker
- Ditzy Genius - almost mandatory for mathematicians
- Fangirl - and also Yaoi Fangirl
- I Have Boobs You Must Obey - easy to invoke at a maths camp with a 1:20 ratio of girls to boys; no I didn't literally flash them
- Imaginary Friend - many, with continually evolving backstories
- Meganekko
- Mr Imagination - see Imaginary Friend and Cloud Cuckoo Lander
- Older Than They Look - 15 or 16 instead of 22
- Shrinking Violet - to extreme levels during high school
- Talkative Loon - the time when she began a sentence with "If I was Batman" is still memorable
- The Nicknamer - due to never remembering anyone's name; also because it's funny
- Third Person Person - at least when she's among her fellow trope-addled siblings
- Tomboy
