Okay, first of all, this thread is for us to know who here visits, edits and uses TvTropes: http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/HomePage
And secondly, we should make a list - in good fun, no flaming, please, and we also have to have a thicker skin here - of what tropes the posters fit. I have to find a system, though, but so far it'll be "tropes of whoever posted before you", maybe along with some of your own tropes - the way you see yourself...
What say you?

Personally I'd consider nominating you for "well-intentioned extremist."
Not a perfect fit, but not so far off either. Actually, this one might apply to a lot of NSG.;)

Lol. :D
Well, to be sure, you folks can add more than one trope. :p
However, I'm also pretty sure I'm not the leftmost person in NSG. ;)

That's a pretty big index - lots of tropes to choose from. Neat site! I'm not sure I know anyone here well enough, though, to pidgeonhole. :(

Well, we can simply make it about the most famous posters here...

That's me.
i can't believe for city of spys they never mentioned 'the village'. you know, the one the third man was forcibly retired to (as #6). the one with "rover" and "#2".

Ones appropriate for my life? Keep in mind that these aren't all 100% accurate, but...
* Our Dragons Are Different
* God is Evil
* The World Is Not Ready
* Invisible To Normals
* Plausible Deniability
* Not Good With People (the first kind, not the second kind)
* Good With Numbers
* Screw The Money, I Have Rules!
And, even though they are all false, some NSGers likely think of me as...
* Mr. Imagination
* The Munchausen
* Strawman Political
* Soap Box Sadie

I endorse this new name for you, even if half the reason is just because I find 'Mr. Imagination' hilarious, as both a trope and a joking name.:D

I have lost many hours to browsing that site. I think you should include disclaimer in the OP warning not to click the link if they plan on being productive today. :D

* Berserk Button (Anti-American and similars)
* Calling Your Attacks
* Badass Boast
* Shameless Self-Promoter
* Small Name Big Ego (Arguably. A big ego, I do have.)

I, on the other hand, sometimes get the feeling that I've passed through one "But Thou Must" after another since I was born.
