  1. It's just over-complicated. They have you pulling one eyelid down and the other one up, while extending your other finger to carefully place the lens... it just blows my mind how redundant the whole process is. I gave up on doing it that way around my second day, and just went with pulling the lower eyelid down and slowly placing it on from there. Way less effort, and way less time. Watch something like to see what I mean by the "easy way."
  2. Brony music is hardly commercialized, so you're fine. It's more about exposure for those guys anyway, but certainly a dollar here and there helps. Maybe buy the song at a later time when you can, just to make up for it - I do that all the time when I feel indebited towards someone who makes really kickass music I buy most of my stuff, but not all of it. I'd say a good 90% is purchased from iTunes/Bandcamp/whatever.
  3. (finally, an excuse to use this friggin' gif, man. UNNF.)
  4. I vote yes! I think everyone looks better without glasses. Contacts are pretty sweet, but they can also be a complete pain in the ass if you don't put in the time for proper maintenance/cleaning. I've had days end where my eyes are just BURNING with irritation, so make sure you wash your hands thoroughly before putting those suckers in. Oh, and if you do decide to get them - don't worry about not being able to put them in. The way they usually show you where you use two hands and two fingers is absolutely ridiculous
  5. Oh god no. I hated beer the second I tried it when I was a lot younger. It just tasted like pure bitterness - a flavor I had only really been exposed to by earwax at that age - gross, I know. But yeah man, I couldn't stand it. I would take sips from my Dad's beer all the time at the table, just to see if I would like it all of a sudden, and that never happened xD But something else did. I got tired of soft drinks, especially at restaurants. I kept eyeing the drink menu - always chock-full of colorful, expensive, crazy-looking concoctions. So, I got curious. Then it just kinda happened. My Dad offered me a glass of wine at dinner, and I went with it. It was okay, I guess. But from that point on, I was all in. It just kinda "clicked," and I love beer now - part of the appeal is the flavor pairs well with food in a lot of cases, unlike soft drinks which are just sugary to the max. It's changed the way I look at food now - just thinking about pairing Indian food with a Coke is like, bleh. And then, of course, there's the actual alcohol content. It's a small amount, mind you, but the results are always . ...You'll develop a taste for it soon enough - seems to happen to everyone
  6. I hope you have a great time! Meet-ups are generally a lot of fun, and very high-energy :3. I encourage anyone who hasn't already looked into them to consider local meetups, they're the best way to meet like-minded people! As for myself - yup! School, meetups, conventions - they're everywhere.
  7. ...sigh. Yes. Yes, I do. That realization bothers me, but it's true, and there's no escaping that. After all, we humans essentially base ourselves on how we think others see us, so it's inevitable, really. What matters though, is the extent that you let people's opinions effect you, whether positive or negative in nature. It's important to set your foot down early and come to terms with the fact that people will always be judging you, and that's okay, because you are who you are. This is why self-honesty is the most crucial thing in life. If you like ponies or anything else for that matter, don't lie to yourself - accept that you like it, and identify why you like it. Accept that deep down, it reflects a part of who you are. In accepting what you are and what you like, you'll have no problems dealing with what other people think - and why would you? If you can say, in all honesty, that this is who I am, and that's okay, then there is no reason for anyone else to think differently. (Talk about superficial judgments, too - judging someone based on their interests? Pssh, That shows a lot about someone's personality.) So, chin-up. Don't let other people's narrow-minded judgements get you down, whether silent or not. Come to terms with yourself, and I guarantee you'll be so much happier - it's one of the main secrets to living an awesome life. And by the way, honesty, in all forms? Sexy. Self-honesty and self-acceptance leads to confidence, and nothing screams attractive like confidence. So, y'know - just saying

      Hmm, well in that case... why are you reading this? Go make dem sweet ponybucks so you can buy and play BioShock!

  9. Alright, real talk. A lot of you are bringin' up pizza in here. That's cool, that's cool. But let me tell ya something. Put your plates down. Sit up, and pay attention, because shit is about to get real. Are you seeing this? Stick with me here. See that golden-brown crust? That dripping, gooey, perfectly baked cheese? That thin shape? Mmm, because you know what they say - less is more~ This cheesy, delectable goddess of cuisine right here? Straight outta New York baby. Forget west coast, this is f*ck the rest coast, because this pizza is as real as it gets.
  10. I got the game on release this past tuesday, and since I haven't played it much. Don't get me wrong - I love Gears, but with no one else to play with, it's rather dull. So, I'm looking for people to play with! Perhaps we can set up a few rounds or something, I dunno. I'm not exactly sure if any of you have the game at all - forum searches seem to hint towards this being the case. Or maybe you're just all off playing it and having a blast, in which case, I want in! Post below if you're interested, and hopefully we can round some people up - the sooner, the better!
  11. Sounds like you've got quite the sex life, eh? Good stuff.
  12. Why am I still up.

      ... good point. I think I'll call it a night here, though :3

  13. Probably Xenoblade Chronicles. Kick ass game, kick ass soundtrack. It's incredibly diverse in terms of pure sound, too. You get atmospheric tracks, reflective, somber ones, and then KICK ASS HEAVY METAL WHOOOOO! Seriously though, it's really good stuff (but obviously I'm biased since I absolutely love the game :<).

  14. Stick-legged peanut-lookin' army dude? Yeah, I'll think I'll pass. No offense though. I do like your sig
  15. THIS. Sleeping is amazing, man. I feel like an old lithium-ion battery these days when it comes to sleeping - I can never get a full charge, so I sleep in whenever I can, 10-11 hours on a good day. I also really like water - it's like I never feel fully hydrated, y'know? This other thing is, I have a hard time keeping my hand out of my pants. I know that sounds weird, but I'm serious. Sometimes I'll be on the computer, bein' all productive and stuff, and then I'll look down and see that my hand is halfway down my pants, totally non-sexual. Like, it's just there. Yeah, I'm weird. /inb4judgments
  16. Seeing you guys post all fuzzy n' warm-like just made me smile I know that I just posted in this thread, but what the hell. I had a pretty satisfying night. Sometimes just coming back from a nice family meal out, sipping on (yet another) beer, and listening to good music is enough to make my day.
  17. People are honestly more interesting to me. The ponies are characters molded into distinct personalities, with set traits in mind. They are type-casted, mostly concrete, and complimentary. People, though - people are different. People change, they grow, adapt, and change. It's that ambiguous nature that makes getting to know people worth it. Investing in their happiness, their troubles, their very nature - it's what makes life worth living. Humans are never static, determined characters - they are ever-evolving, ever-changing complex equations - the kind that are impossible to solve, but incredibly compelling to simply consider. Hanging out with the Mane6 would be stellar, sure. The opportunity sounds amazing, especially coming from the troubled world we all know. But really, it's all of it's complexities and hardships that make our world the beautiful, intricate, imperfect gem that it is. I'd think I'd actually go insane in a mostly-perfect world where I was hardly ever prompted to ask "why?"
  18. 15? I dunno. Hylian is a Zelda thing, and Zelda's main fanbase seems to be older dudes or teens these days. EDIT: HOLY SHIT NAILED IT.
  19. I average 135 these days, at 6'4". I'm 19. I think I'm supposed to weigh around 160-170 for my height? Yeah. It used to bother me, but it doesn't anymore. I don't mind being skinny, and I most certainly don't mind being tall. I'm just me, and that's okay.
  20. The thought that deep down, in some small, possibly insignificant way, this girl at school might actually... like me. It's a good feeling. But with these types of things, you never really know~
  21. Okay, now I'm honestly starting to doubt the legitimacy of your little "adventure stories." Unless, of course, you explain in full, thorough detail.
  22. Heh, well - glad to know I'm not the only one. It was sort of a... phase for me. Long since passed, but I still think she's hot stuff, that's for sure
