The Philosofan

"The Philosofan" is a 'Video Review Show' show on Geekvision and the That Guy With the Glasses forums dealing with the anthropological side of fandom, & geek culture, & fangirls. Lots of fangirls. It is created and hosted by TBelle, AKA Haley Baker, AKA Trickster-Belle. Her videos can be seen on Geekvision here.

Tropes:

 * Berserk Button: Calling TBelle a Fan Girl
 * Came Back Wrong: T Belle left to do research on Creepypasta. When she came back...things got weird.
 * The Cast Showoff: Several times, there have been musical credits where Haley shows off her singing voice. & once co-producer Jess showed off her ukelele skills.
 * Driven to Madness: Watchmen & Crime and Punishment seem to have this effect on TBelle
 * The Fair Folk: TBelle tends to like stories involving them, as seen in her Top 11 Anime & her Labyrinth thesis.
 * Fan Girl: TBelle, albeit reluctantly. Not to mention her whole video explaining the concept.
 * Guilty Pleasure: The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen for TBelle
 * I'm Not Afraid of You: How she dealt with that pesky victim complex, in the same style as the movie she was talking about.
 * Improbable Weapon: The umbrella
 * Lipstick and Load Montage: Primping up to get ready for a review is serious business.
 * Occidental Otaku: TBelle's introduction to anime. It was an awkward experience.
 * Old Shame: Her high school web show.
 * Shipping Goggles: Wears actual goggles with the word "shipping" written not he lenses.
 * Southern Belle: & proud of it.
 * Talking To Herself: Arguing with her 'high school victim complex' in the Labyrinth thesis.
