  1. for some reason these twilicorn topics have reminded me greatly of religious topics on other forums that i've seen (well before fim was a concept). one side refuses to accept logic, regardless how frequently and well it is presented... both groups always had an a-hole or two minimum by default, but there was always one of the two groups with a leading majority. as for my opinion on this matter, i fully support princess twilight, and have (admittedly guarded) hope that the writers will take this to the heights of its potential, witch is very high indeed. even though i must confess a small fear that this could crash horribly, but to me that crash would be undoing the change, retcons suck nards. and finally i'll go ahead and throw in my opinion on the finale. i've already watched it a buttload of times, and still every time i hear celestia's ballad, and then see twilight reveal her wings i become a giggling idiot for five minutes or so. i LOVED the finale episode! did it feel rushed, yeah. however i do not feel there was a lack of dialogue, just that much of it was sung instead of said, fine by me. i see the abundance of music in the season finale as a gift to us bronies, it's remix fodder. they knew that we'd be antsy over an extended gap between seasons, and so gave us this fabulous gift to tide us over. now my thoughts on why at least a portion of people are anti-twilicorn. change has to do with it, but also we have a lot of people assuming a lot of things about twilight and her abilities along with alicorns and their abilities. it seems, to me, that many of the anti-twilicorn camp seem to have a preference for "head-canon" over actual canon. then there is the catalogue of fanfics that this change makes invalid and renders them as solidly outside of the canonical story. so i am going to go with a diagnoses of butt-hurt.
  2. he asked for a 3/4 wrench? while working on a nissan?!?! CONTINUITY ERROR!!! IT SHOULD BE A 19MM, AAAHHHH!!!!!! lol, that was a really hilarious video, but i couldn't help spotting that, somewhere between my inner nerd and inner mechanic there is a crossed wire methinks
  3. ok, i don't get much news, normally finding out about stuff well after everyone else. i just found out about this twilight alicorn thing yesterday morning, just as a snippet of info about the episode. my first thought was "frickin awesome! twilight as an alicorn will kick soo much ass!" then a few hours later i find out so many people are like "the show is over and so is my liiife!!!" um, really? now, i will admit that i am wary of what could come of this, but i seriously doubt it'll be anywhere near as bad as everyone's making it out to be. the one thing that would piss me off would be if they do it with and end-of-episode retcon. i hate that kind of writing, it always feels cheap and sleazy, and leaves the story unchanged making the entire experience worthless and a waste of time. in short, i support princess twilight, and can't wait to see the new episode and where the show goes from there. provided they don't pull a cheap retcon.
  4. i'll give it a shot, been wanting a way to contribute back to the writing community. send it as a message here as otherwise it'll like just hit my spam filter.
  5. just saying, you may want to put NSFW on that one for the language used. i found it hilarious, but some people like to be warned
  6. ok that last vid led to me finding this bit of hilarious awesome; now to think of something to say while wondering how i'm seeing so many other posts that are below the 100 min...
  7. found an interesting one, just an animation of luna walking across a rather strange lunar terrain, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ymqq6rWYtC4 pretty cool background music to it, aperantly a mix of portal two themes...
  8. 1 driver, 2 frienemies, 2 busriders, and parents... i'm getting more than 6 when i add it up... need that pic of pinkie pie that says "logic? i'm pinkie pie!"

    mega thread Last Poster Wins

    nah, i won this a while back, a long while back... why is this thread still hanging around?
  10. now that i learn of a con in texas, even if it is in austin (i HATE driving in austin) i have no ability to go will have to watch for it next year i guess
  11. so glad for a day of internet access again! wow at some of the stuff that has been posted! batbrony, i've been almost paralysed laughing so hard at that last couple of vids for the last half hour lol
  12. i'm all for a con in texas, kinda sucks hearing about all these cons elsewhere and getting no local love. maybe just a board for meetup listings would be in order, would be low traffic, but would make for more efficient organization of meetups and such
  13. just a comment about the "why does human fluttershy have DD's?" discussion from a page or two ago, it's an anime thing, as a girl's cuteness/shyness increase, so does her bust, if compounded the effect is magnified, and if the name of said character is also cute, magnification of effect becomes exponential. was really difficult to write this without my anti-guttermind censor going crazy. for real.
  14. lol nice, about a month ago or so i went and got 3 blind bags along with 2 six packs of beer. don't sound like much, easy to explain as going to my bro's and got those for his kid or whatever, well i have a beard on par with zz top, a welding cap, and a classic brony shirt which is mostly obstructed by the beard. the clerk gives a quick curious glance at me when he puts the toys into the bag with one of the six packs, so with my left hand i move my beard aside and indicate the large RD logo and "BRONY" with my right. now he has to speak, "huh?" "i'm a fan of the show," i say somewhat flattly, almost unable to keep a wide grin off my face. he looks back at the toys "ya mean you watch my little pony?!?" in a way that also says "i haven't heard about this" so i simply say "yup. check it out sometime." left with 3 ponies, 12 beers and a belly full of "wtf's" lol
  15. one last thing i'd recommend would be to do the makeup and get a couple seconds on the camera to see how it will look recorded, which WILL be different from in person/mirror.
  16. perhaps some surplus fake blood applied thinly could make a red/light red, to then be powdered to pink. if you don't have leftover fake blood from a halloween past then surely you have a friend who does, that stuff is everywhere, and never gets used up. also have to note that i doubt the honesty of girls who claim to have never been big on makeup...
  17. ok, that helps tremendously, if the black is just for detail lines you should be able to get by with an eye-liner. puppet look i'm guessing you want a dull kind of white/pink, put red where you want it, let me think on how would be cheapest for red, then coat all with baby powder. really your best bet may be to get with a chick friend for a quick make-up job come to think of it, just get a picture of what you're going for (google image search steampunk and you'll likely be flooded with reference pics) and let your friend help. y'know, friendship is magic... i apologize for that.
  18. well, you could really help those who want to help you with just a little more info. you're needing makeup for a music video so i'm assuming you'll be acting as some non-human character, what is this character? as well as a rough geographic area that you're in would narrow down who could show up to actually help in person (i'm in east texas, and larp a lot, so i have some mild experience with makeup, and a vary small selection on hand) and anything more that you are willing to release about this project would be great to know so that you can get help from someone with the right talents.
  19. brohoofed as a proxy for the quoted post, to sneak in an extra
  20. because lesson zero had already been taught. also there was a little of THAT plot in the latex suits, which had near zero reason...
