As some of you may know if you stalk the plot calender, the weekend of the 12th/13th of this month has an event.

That event? Weetiny weekend.

So, pick out your weeeeetiny PBs now, folks! Or shuffle icons, or... do something. Because it's an icon addiction for all of us.

Also coming up: Starting this coming Tuesday, the 8th, the washing machines all over Fandom will be striking. And they won't give into washing clothing again until Monday, the 14th. So, have fun with that, folks.

Meme: Tropes!

[exactlyaverage.livejournal.com]

I'm bored. It's Friday. What better way to cap off a week than a third meme and wasting time on the TV Tropes website? Yes. You may yell at me now for linking you. But since we haven't done this since last September I figure we're due.

Stolen from decoder_rings:

A trope, for our purposes, is a recognizable concept or pattern of behavior used in fiction. Tropes are not necessarily cliches. Cliches, by definition, are trite; tropes are simply an expectation, and can be used in fresh and unique ways. For example, "Rags to Riches" is a popular trope that everyone recognizes -- Sometimes it's done well, sometimes not. Your challenge, should you accept it, is to trawl the TV Tropes Wiki and find five tropes that fit your character. Comment here listing the tropes and explain why you chose them. Others familiar with your character can then offer additional tropes they feel are appropriate.

So hit the trope website for hours, come up with five (or more) tropes that apply to your characters and then come back here and yell at me for linking you to the Tropes website.
