  1. Well, I always thought his actual name is Roid Rage. Tho Snowflake just makes him so much more... When someone like that walks to you and gets introduced as Snowflake, you will fear him.
  2. It would be your loss. And - you can't offend me by saying anything about a drink, no matter whether I like it or not. Unless it's whisky. Then I would kill you with no remorse and mercy.
  3. Mind you, I'm not offended or what not, I just quite value coffee and tea and I don't like people missing out of either just because they didn't have the chance to try the "good stuff".
  4. Well, passing judgement over coffee based on instant would be quite like passing judgement over tea (yes, all types and kinds) based on taste of a teabag which goes for 50 cents per 20 pieces and is named "Fruity FuFu". Sub-optimal.
  5. You know, almost all instant coffees are something you drink when you don't have the time, but need a fast shot of caffeine. Or perhaps if you have no taste buds and sense of smell. Some are better than others, but not really cool. If you want a good powdered coffee, you better have a huge wallet. If you want taste and nice aroma, you always want coffee beans and preferably whole ones, which you'll grind right before making the coffee. In general, even the cheapest beans will taste a hell lot better than instant coffee. Also the bitterness isn't really there. And then of course, you have various types with very different aromas and qualities. Also how you make the coffee matters. Well, what I'm trying to say - don't judge it just yet, the variety is great there.
  6. As someone who goes for up to five cups a day on average for years, I can tell you that while someone never really likes the taste, picking up the right coffee is rather essential. While one can taste like an ass, other can be the nectar of the gods. For starters, was that instant coffee? You know, beans or powder.
  7. If the age in your profile is in fact your age, then it's way too early to think like that. Such a depressive thinking is reserved strictly for people between 20 and 35. You still have a lot of time to "reset" if you'll try hard enough and you didn't get to the fun part of life just yet. So head up and march straight ahead. And yes, I sound like a terrible cliche machine. OT: Getting socks for christmas isn't so terrible as people make it out to be. It could be worse.
  8. Well, I can now see that the main problem in our communication was use of certain words. When I say I hate someone, I do truly mean hatred and when I invoke the bitch in all seriousness, then I'm probably trying to be really offensive there. You seem to mean "don't like at all" and "unlikeable female". Yes, I am overthinking very simple stuff very often. When I first watched - and I have no idea what ep that actually was, as it was somewhere around 4AM in mildly drunk state on a con, I know I just fell in (almost literally) love with RD at the spot, mostly thanks to the color combination, tomboy-ishness and voice acting, then immediately went "Why the heck would they put a barbie pony thing in the show?" (Rarity) and more or less felt this way up till the Diamond Dogs episode. After that I liked her and I have no line of reasoning as to why. And I think she actually was the antagonist of the Sonic Rainboom, I mean, really, if you'd call Dash somewhat dubious when it comes to her loyalty and behaviour to friends, how do you call what Rarity did there?
  9. Sorry, there might be a little misunderstanding, by "on purpose" I mean provoking on purpose by making somewhat disingenuous exaggerations and using a little bit of harsh language, not disliking or hating on purpose. Now when that's out of the way - I didn't say you are not entitled to choose or have opinions. It's just about how you present them. And I sure hope "everyone on the forums knows that" is an exaggeration too, otherwise it could mean you might have some deep running issues with certain character archetype. Now that I bitchslapped you back, let's get serious. I take it you like Rarity then (based on your profile). Out of curiosity, did you always like her or did you start at some particular point in the series? Don't worry, it's not a trap. As I've said, I like all 6 of them, with slight positive bias towards RD. And I prolly like her for the same reasons you "hate" her. Interesting.
  10. I don't know, element of loyalty. Probably should tell you something. She must be given bonus points for carrying the most important message for kids in the whole series: Reading is cool, read books kids. - That is something that the younger generations really need to be reminded of. Also, "aggressive intimidating bitch who can't keep her cool"? You are doing it on purpose after all.
  11. Oh come on, now you're just doing it on purpose. Your definition of bullying and rudeness are just overkill and being rather prideful and somewhat self-centered is part of the character. Actually, if there were only good traits, the character would be just dull. Flaws are part of any character that's worthy of being called a character (that's actually what makes the MLP characters interesting). Being a little bit of an ass, but standing up when it counts - I'd say that's close to a real person. And I'd say that's a good thing.
  12. 1000 USD isn't exactly a lot of money. So, erm, pay rent and use the rest for smokes, food and drinks for a week or three? Yeah, how boring is that. Welcome to the real life.
  13. Since everyone is advertising, I'll do it too - TB, aka Total Biscuit, aka The Cynical Brit. That's who I find to be both very enjoyable and quite informative at the same time. But it may also have something to do with me being a cynical Brit too. Also the 100 char limit is the best thing ever. It is SO delightful to be on forums where half of the posts aren't "+1" or "OMG".
  14. I think crayons make everything look worse, unless you have some mysterious talent almost noone on this planet has. Either way, if you want to go for price/quality, go for Faber-Castell pencils, you can do pretty proffesional work with those, without spending all that much. ... Anyway, don't mind me too much, I'm used to being rather obsessive critic, but when I see ponies and try to be friendly, it always ends up as gibberish.
  15. Well, my personal bias yells "RD, push the button, it's definitely RD!" but I actually have to stop myself and not vote at all, because I can't decide. I think all six have amazing work behind them, which is one of the main reasons why this show is so good as it is. I think RD can possibly lead as far as character development goes. Rarity as you said is kinda deeper than she seems at the first glance. Twillight is always great with her panic attacks. Fluttershy is extremely cute, only complain I might have is that she seems to be rather stagnant, exactly the same from the first episode till now. At least in my opinion. Applejack, well, she has character, I just find her hard to like too much because of the whole "Texas yeeeeaaaaaw" thing she has going on. And Pinkie, well, how can anyone complain. Pinkie is Pinkie and if Pinkie changes, I will be very displeased.
  16. Don't take this the wrong way, but I think it would be actually pretty cool if you did not color it with crayons. ...Yeah, I'm actually not joking.
  17. SAI! Yes! That is the name I'm failing to remember for a year. Oh by Celestia, thank you. That really is the best tool you can wish for if you are not extra-cool with tablet and/or go for manga style (including ponies).
  18. Probably being Discord. Otherwise, he'd be rational and wouldn't tell everypony where the Elements are and instead of games he'd just wipe out everypony posing any threat at all. Only then he would go out and play.
  19. If you tell me why it should be weird, I will tell you whether it is or not. Because I don't see how or why liking older games, music, movies or literature would be weird. Do I have to be 200 years old to enjoy Shelley? I sure hope not.
  20. He just seems to be way more awkward than he is funny. I didn't see all that much of him, but that is because I just don't feel like I get enough information or enjoyment to keep watching. But I can see why would people like him. I think it's similar to why people generally like stand-up comedians and I usually don't.
  21. Anyway, what I dislike about this fandom is people who constantly try to divide it. Live and let live, if you don't like something, just ignore it completly. Aditionally, we are now saying who is and isn't a real brony? Really, how far we've come in such a short time, we are a fundamentalist church now, what do you know. Don't go down this path guys, really don't, it would be a shame.
  22. -People who derail old threads by by arguing about stuff they aren't even sure about are bloody awkward. -People who care too much about what other should enjoy are fascist. Well, not quite, but they work hard to get there. ... -Racism is a bad thing, but it's going over the top lately. Things like getting court order to rename century old sweets like "Black cake" will not get you sympathy but hate and ridicule.
  23. Indeed it wasn't. The first part kinda was tho. Either way, the second was directed at somepony in particular, but it's not like only one person does that. Despite how it sounds it wasn't meant to be offensive, even tho it gets a bit tiring at times. One blames fanfiction. That's the reason why people hate us! Shame on them! Other goes after clop-art. That is clearly what's wrong with the fandom. And music, those cursed authors making infantile songs, that's why people attack bronies! Let's not do that comrades, we all know it's not true, it's just being irritating for no reason at all.
  24. It's not the typical "ancient" game, but prolly the Ultima series and Ultima Online, as well as Baldur's gate. Mostly because I think that even today they are often much better in every aspect than the modern games and get all happy when I think about all the stuff I did in those games. Especially Ultima Online. I wonder if we'll ever see a game that allows you to do so much stuff and especially RP.
  25. It's not that big, definitely not everywhere if you aren't looking for it. It's good to remember that many sites base what you see on what you were looking for in the past, so for example if you watched MLP on YouTube a lot, there WILL suddenly be ponies everywhere. Google does something similar. Either way, blaming other parts of the fandom for haters just makes you ignorant or a hypocrite. Grow up a bit and think about it a little.
