A recent trope addict (it's actually replaced alcohol as top of my addictive substances list), I am a Psychology graduate from the University of Chester, in England. I currently live in Barnsley, England. I do not like tea, which pretty much everyone I know considers totally heretical.
I've applied to be a police officer, but it's going at the speed of a glacier. So as it is, I'm the token bum.
Not to worry, though! This suckitude gives me plenty of time to play video games, watch movies, trope and trope.
Named for the Jonathan Coulton song. My real name is Ash. No, not like the Pokemon, Jerkass. I'm the Ash that Ash aspires to be.
I claim the Out Run page and the Big Damn Fire Exit page, as much as anyone can claim anything on a wiki :P . I'll often add examples as and when I see them. I mostly come for the lulz, though I will add or comment if I see something that isn't here.
Tropes that apply to this troper include:
- Magnificent Bastard
- True Neutral
- For the Evulz
- The So-Called Coward
- Bad Ass Longcoat - Well, not really a longcoat per se, but everyone wants my flight jacket.
- Foreign Queasine - About the only things I can make are Chilli, pasta, any sort of sandwich your mind can envision and stew. I can't even break an egg properly, FFS.
- Oop North - "Baaahnsli!" is the stupid so-called impression everyone not from Barnsley will do whenever I tell them I'm from Barnsley. It's stopped being funny. Seriously.
- Made of Iron - I was hit by a car doing 30 in March '09. Ruptured spleen. No broken bones. I was up and walking again a week later.
- Loners Are Freaks - I do have friends. Honest!
- Brilliant, but Lazy
- Deadpan Snarker
- Butt-Monkey - if anyone gets the p*** taken out of them, it's likely to be me.
- Blind Without 'Em - Averted. Wore glasses and contact lenses for years. Then stopped randomly because it was expensive. Took an eye test a few weeks ago - my bad eye is 20:20, my good eye is so much better than 20:20 that it overrides my bad eye.
- Genre Blindness - Til I came here. Then I discovered genre savviness and Fridge Logic. And took a level
.
- Cluster F-Bomb / Precision F-Strike - Whenever I do drop The Bomb, it's well-timed and placed. So basically, I take the F Strike and go overkill.
Feel free to vandalise. Idc. :-)
