So...do I fall in to a trope category?

Seems like in the media, there are certain 'tropes' for vampire characters. A lot of 'em are technophobes but...I mean, there's definite defining characters of a lot of 'em.
You got your old and dangerous one stuck in the past.
You got your old and dangerous type who spends a lot of time with his shirt off until some chick makes goo-goo eyes at him long enough to get her mind warped into doing whatever the old vampire wants.
You got the angsty prick who tries to reform himself for all his past crimes.
And then you got the really animalistic ones that are more complete monsters with no trace of humanity what-so-fucking-ever.
As for me? Is there 'hey kid, stop asking me if I sparkle and let me get back to sending my text message' trope?
Cuz that would be mine.
