Tropers/BuccoBabe here! The username is a tribute to my longstanding affection for the {{Pittsburgh}} [[UsefulNotes/MLBTeams Pirates]], who are the love of my girlhood and a onetime championship baseball team. When I first claimed the name it was with a bit of bravado; my Buccos were in the seventeenth year of what would eventually become a twenty-year losing streak, but I still cheered for them, and so what? But Pittsburgh's boys of summer made it to the playoffs in 2013 ''and'' 2014, with the prospect of better things to come. I now look forward to telling any future "Bucco" tropers: "Ha! Got here first!"

They never came, but hope on, hope ever -- I'll always be a "Bucco Babe."



* MostFanficWritersAreGirls. I'm about as "shippy" as the main entry for that trope implies, too. Some of my favored pairings include [[StarTrekTheNextGeneration Picard/Crusher]], [[StarTrekVoyager Janeway/Chakotay]], [[StarTrekVoyager Chakotay/Paris]] -- oh, heck, [[StarTrekVoyager Chakotay]] [[LauncherOfAThousandShips and just about anybody.]] Series-era Robert Beltran is hot!
* {{Otaku}}, in the generic sense of "fangirl." My focus has varied over the years. Originally I was an otaku of Pirates baseball, later of XMen, StarTrekTheOriginalSeries, StarTrekTheNextGeneration, BabylonFive, BattlestarGalactica, and other properties.

Fortunately for the rest of the world, my retaliatory strikes are usually limited to what can be done with the spoken or the written word. But I'm very ''good'' with words.

* BlindWithoutEm. Downright cliche on this one. Without my glasses, I'd have to hold a book up within a couple of inches of my nose to read. And forget about driving without them -- I couldn't even see the dashboard well enough, let alone the road or any traffic signals.

The way they've played over the last nineteen years, I figured I wouldn't have any competition for this handle, and I was right. The way they're going this year, though, we may yet see a few more "Bucco" handles around here....

I've signed on to the {{FoRKS}} page. Seems to me the trope names on this site have gotten a little boring lately. (Can't believe they changed TheWesley!)

[Some months later] Oh, for Pete's sake -- no more [=FoRKS=] page?!? Well, whether there's a page for it or not, this Troper will always be a Friend of Really Kool Sobriquets!
