Before making a single edit, Tropedia EXPECTS our site policy and manual of style to be followed. Failure to do so may result in deletion of contributions and blocks of users who refuse to learn to do so. Our policies can be reviewed here.
All images MUST now have proper attribution, those who neglect to assign at least the "fair use" licensing to an image may have it deleted. All new pages should use the preloadable templates feature on the edit page to add the appropriate basic page markup. Pages that don't do this will be subject to deletion, with or without explanation.
All new trope pages will be made with the "Trope Workshop" found on the "Troper Tools" menu and worked on until they have at least three examples. The Trope workshop specific templates can then be removed and it will be regarded as a regular trope page after being moved to the Main namespace. THIS SHOULD BE WORKING NOW, REPORT ANY ISSUES TO Janna2000, SelfCloak or RRabbit42. DON'T MAKE PAGES MANUALLY UNLESS A TEMPLATE IS BROKEN, AND REPORT IT THAT IS THE CASE. PAGES WILL BE DELETED OTHERWISE IF THEY ARE MISSING BASIC MARKUP.
But that's okay 'cause no one seems to recognize me anyway.
I'm mistaken for somebody else constantly throughout my day.
I won't get caught 'cause no one knows, that I'm an American psycho.
I know what brand you wear.
I know what kind of pair
of pants and shoes and shirts you have on.
I dine expensively,
with a hard body next to me,
but she likely won't see your next thought.
But that's okay 'cause no one seems to recognize me anyway.
I'm mistaken for somebody else constantly throughout my day.
I won't get caught 'cause no one knows, that I'm an American psycho.
It's so sad, we only seem to care
about our face and hair,
and what makes us look good.
Your business card is better.
You have a bigger room.
That could lead to your doom,
and I really think it should.
Did you make it to the top of the world just to die?
I own all the name brands.
I have a nicer tan.
I exercise and work out daily.
I rent some videos,
watch the Patty Winter show.
My mind it thinks irrationally.
But that's okay 'cause no one seems to recognize me anyway.
I'm mistaken for somebody else constantly throughout my day.
I won't get caught 'cause no one cares, that I'm an American psycho.
It's so sad, we only seem to care
about our face and hair,
and what makes us look good.
Your business card is better.
You have a bigger room.
That could lead to your doom,
and I really think it should.
Did you make it to the top of the world just to die?
Oh, did you make it to the top of the world just to die?
You're gonna die!
—Calibretto, "American Psycho"
Do you like Huey Lewis and the News? Their early work was a little too new wave for my tastes, but when Sports came out in '83, I think they really came into their own, commercial and artistically. The whole album has a clear, crisp sound, and a new sheen of consummate professionalism that really gives the songs a big boost. He's been compared to Elvis Costello, but I think Huey has a far much more bitter, cynical sense of humour...In '87, Huey released this, "Fore," their most accomplished album. I think their undisputed masterpiece is "Hip to be Square", a song so catchy, most people probably don't listen to the lyrics. But they should, because it's not just about the pleasures of conformity, and the importance of trends, it's also a personal statement about the band itself...
