I'm early 40s, female, married, active member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. I'm pretty much an omnivore reader (about all I really dislike are Westerns and romances). My taste in movies leans toward comedy, science-fiction/fantasy, or horror/thrillers. My TV tastes range from Mythbusters to Dexter, with stops at The X Files, Flash Forward 2009, and similar along the way (I also enjoyed a lot of 70s and 80s comedies, the ones with good writing instead of the current tendency toward "body part/function described crudely = hilarious").
I wrote the entry for:
- Idiocracy
- No Launching Please
- Gender Equals Breed (I adopted an Up For Grabs YKTTW someone else started)
- Emergence
proposed in YKTTW:
- Mutual Kill (PkMARIO revived it and it finally got launched by Prfnoff after six months of dormancy)
split off Troper Tales:
- Geeky Turn On (rescued RL examples that had been hatcheted)
- Percussive Maintenance
- Your Tomcat Is Pregnant
- Blind Without Em (especially near and dear to my heart, since I'm a meganekko myself)
- Huge Guy Tiny Girl
- Brown Note (rescued deleted RL examples)
- Nightmare Fuel Station Attendant (rescued deleted RL examples)
- No Sense Of Direction
- Brain Bleach (rescued hatcheted example)
- Head Pet (another rescue of examples from a Ninjacrat hatchet job)
and launched from YKTTWs that I started:
- Bullet Seed
- Visual Pun
- At Arm's Length
- TV Tropes Will Ruin Your Vocabulary
- No More for Me
- Detective Mole
But I usually just throw in examples as I find them and their places (I tend to come up with ones from Dexter, Mythbusters, Garfield, The X Files, and Stephen King, and am probably responsible for 80% or more of Kevin And Kell examples). I also tend to do minor edits to correct spelling/typographical errors and tweak formatting, in a friendly-helpful spirit.
