I'll just have a quick look on TV Tropes to see what kinds of tropes we could assign...

OH GOD WHAT YEAR IS IT
Chivalrous Pervert YEAH
Tv Tropes is the crack of the Internet. Of course I condone this.
Honestly, I've never understood the appeal of TV Tropes and why people find it so fascinating.
I feel like I learn so much. And it neverendingly links to itself! And external links! Ooh baby! *drools*
I sometimes feel like half the reason I've gotten so much into Doctor Who is how extensive TV Tropes' coverage of it is. Of course, there are a huge number of reasons other than that, so it isn't half the reason, but TV Tropes definitely helped.
Indeed.Agreed. My first experience with tropes was when I was beginning my chronicles (which began as a fanfiction of KH)... I was trying avoid using well-known cliches or archetypes in my fiction (I didn't even know what a trope was) and stumbled upon TVT&I (by the way, I've never found an idiom on the site). I quickly learned that there is no avoiding cliches or archetypes, everything's been done, what's been done has often been done again, done to death, revived for mild amusement and/or nostalgia and killed again, and then done once more years off the mark just to check if anybody remembers it. So I decided if I couldn't beat'em, I'd join'em, and while I was at it, I pretty much determined to merge with the entirety of the site until I was essentially a sickly if silly god of all tropes. Ridiculousness empower me!Dignified Pauper! That's his freakin' name!
I am not in Mercen-X's list and now I am sad.
As for TVTropes, every great writer I personally know pretty much has the site memorized. Which makes me feel bad because I have never spent much time there. xD

It was a sarcastic attack based on your last post here. Truthfully, I don't know much about you except that people know you you :eek:
