This Troper Special - Romance Featuring Mark von Lewis (Video)

Post by Trista on Tue Aug 02, 2011 10:08 pm

I'd love to say I knew when more of the Nice Guys series was coming, but it's kind of on hold for now. In the mean time, meet Mark von Lewis. He's a member of the TV Tropes forum and a proud drunkard (seriously) but he just can't get a girl and he doesn't understand why. Video doesn't contain $MONEY$ but it does contain a few other amusing quotes that I won't spoil here.

For the curious, this was an ongoing thing so recording took place over the course of three days. I'm not the one who did this reading, but I do live with the guy who did. I promise I won't spam the place with stuff like this but I figured this one was relevant enough to share.

That was hilarious, except drunk shark sounded like a thirteen year old but talked about getting drunk all of the time, which was a bit disturbing. He has to be underaged, right? Because the army is pretty hard up for recruits these days and you could be enlisted and off to basic training pretty darned quick (provided you are a cis hetero able bodied guy). Or maybe drunk shark is not a USian. Or maybe he is afraid that the military won't let him be so drunk all of the time?

Though I haven't watched the video, I do go on TVTropes and MvL can be pretty.. interesting, sometimes.

EDIT: Though I also want to say on his behalf that when he's not talking about himself he's usually quite reasonable.

It's all so much better in R. Lee Ermey's voice.

I hope this guy's military career goes well, because he sure seems to have a lot riding on that. I hope they don't kick him out for, you know, being drunk on duty or going through withdrawal in boot camp or any of those little things that can trip you up.

Oh, the cranky old dude voice. By far my favorite for these mockeries.

Actually, we were told to make it sound like an "angry soldier guy." And since no one else said it, I guess I will:
I'M the fucking prize, dammit!
