Well there are already purely negative depictions of Bronies out there, though a curious thing to consider is whether or not they would have complained if it was all negative. There is also that, if I remember right, the documentary's purpose was to clear the Bronies of the negative stereotypes that a non-brony would usually give to them, and those that were already given to them by the media and other places. Now I haven't seen the documentary yet, but from what I am hearing it seems to have succeeded at that.

A rant about Derpy being removed.
Aeon Of Dreams replied to Svinnik's topic in MLP:FiM Canon Discussion
Another problem is that it makes an even more unfortunate implication by going through with removing her. Now we have already established that she is a loved character who has a job, and (at least in the fandom) is also a single mother, and in every other regard seems self-sufficient. Now we have also established that it was never confirmed that she was mentally disabled in anyway, but throwing PC in that direction actually tells people "Mentally disabled beings have no place in society and their existence should not be acknowledged". Now this is a negative thing both by itself and in context with everything else we know about Derpy, especially considering that she can handle herself we even if she is mentally disabled. Here is a video on the subject. -
technology Are we moving too fast technology-wise?
Aeon Of Dreams replied to Betez's topic in Media Discussion
My biggest issue would be, as a consumer, buying something new and then seeing it go obsolete within an amount of time that I find ridiculous. -

A few things, but for now I would say the Kitab-i-Aqdas and the Prose Edda. I also have quite a few other books that I have started, but still need to finish.

I think that there is a place for dark things, but I am not sure if it is necessarily with MLP. One would have to keep in mind the original audience and make sure that if it is dark, then it must "fit" and not go beyond the show's scope. I also agree with Stellafera in that (at least in the case of MLP) darkness for sake of darkness is something I would rather see avoided. Though to be honest, I am not sure if I really want to see it go that dark, most of us who love the show for what it is now, which is rather optimistic. Compare that to things people in my age group (I am 19) are into, and you will find that they are very dark more often then not. The thing about MLP is that it is the only light hearted show that I love it for what it is without any sort of irony, despite it not really being that dark (sure it has it's moments, but it always hits the right amount to keep you engaged without destroying the shows "alignment" if you catch my drift).

Bladed / Exotic Weapons Thread
Aeon Of Dreams replied to Chigens and Kay's topic in General Discussion
In terms of Martial Arts, I know how to use a Naginata and Sai Swords, though out of the two I only own the Sai Swords (not complaining because they are awesome). I also have family in Africa and they sent me an african dagger which was cool, and my family has a couple axes lying around the house if those count. -
gaming Do you believe violent video games are linked to violent acts?
Aeon Of Dreams replied to Quill The Pony.'s topic in Media Discussion
I would like to add that it was actually confirmed that M Rated games are the hardest restricted media to acquire, much harder then even R Rated movies. Here is a source for that. -
gaming Do you believe violent video games are linked to violent acts?
Aeon Of Dreams replied to Quill The Pony.'s topic in Media Discussion
No, to be honest it is my personal belief that violence is just human nature and people will use anything they can to justify a violent act on someone else, or have someone correlate it with violence for sake of insecurity, power abuse, ect. Oh and the Jimquisition summed it up perfectly with a video appropriately called "Desensitized To Violence", however, if you want to see the video then be warned that there is a very disturbing clip in it (which he uses as both a test and proof in his video). I will not link it here for sake of the rules, but I would recommend seeing it on your own time if you want to, the video does give you adequate warnings as to when it appears and what is in it, there are even times listed in the description if you want to skip it. Either way he makes a powerful point. -
I have to go with Jumpstyle, and I do love Stamp on the ground too, though my favorite Italobrothers song is Radio Hardcore, though the video is still out of the ordinary. While I am at it, here is a jumpstyle meet in Germany.

My name essentially means "Dream Magic" (similar to how necromancy is used to describe magic relating to the dead), more specifically it is divination via dreams. I chose it because I am an avid lucid dreamer and happen to love dreaming in general. I also get euphoria from having dreams from time to time.

Speaking of Bionicle, if you go to their most popular forum, you will find a massive brony population there, I should probably tell some of them about this place.
-
I would have to say it was mostly hot wheels and lego, but Bionicle especially, seeing as Bionicle pretty much was my childhood in this particular regard.

Mountain Dew is my favorite, followed by Coke and Fanta (or any kind of orange soda in all seriousness). Anyway I am not sure if I prefer normal Mt. Dew or game fuel.

Favorite Songs From The Show

I have some, though my list is probably longer then what I post here. “Believe those who are seeking the truth. Doubt those who find it.” -Andre Gide “Philosophy begins in wonder. And, at the end, when philosophic thought has done its best, the wonder remains.” -Alfred North Whitehead “All life is only a set of pictures in the brain, among which there is no difference betwixt those born of real things and those born of inward dreamings, and no cause to value the one above the other.” -H.P. Lovecraft "Of course it's happening inside your head...,but why on earth should that mean that it is not real?" -J.K. Rowling

I personally believe anyone should be able to cry without scrutiny regardless of things like gender. While I was in high school, I took a sociology class and we had a unit on men and social norms. Consider this, we (in America) have some school shootings, and about 80% of all suicides being male, and you know what the most common thing I hear from people in these cases is? "I had no idea anything was wrong with him." But that is it, isn't it, when you consider that when a woman is showing any sign of distress then she is immediately sent to help or someone reports it to get her help in some way. Also, there are cases like the Virginia Tech shooting where the person who did the shootings was not only very open about his violent attitudes, they went completely unnoticed and no one bothered to do anything until well after the shooting took place. Or, going back to what I said about "having no idea they would do it", remember Columbine? The shooters did what they did after being bullied for the longest time, again, nothing was done about it and it was not recognized properly until well after the shooting took place. In our society (or at least American society), guys are more or less socially conditioned to hide their emotions, and thus a girl is usually given assistance before she does these things.

gaming Underrated Video Games
Aeon Of Dreams replied to Commander Bubbles's topic in Media Discussion
I have always been a fan of Bungie's Marathon series, it is now free for those who want to try it out. Also, Alan Wake is not that well known even though it was very good, especially in the music and story department. BlazBlue is spectacular for those of us who love fighting games. But it also has some of the best characters I have ever seen, and I am quite serious there (not that my word means much here....). -
@Bloo47, that is one of my favorites, especially with the added intro. Anyway, I got some. Requiem For A Soldier http://www.youtube.com/embed/CfVELFsb96Q If the opera-esque singing style is not your thing, there are other versions, if it effects your being able to hear the lyrics, here they are. The War Was In Color http://www.youtube.com/embed/Pf29IIQuqYk Honor http://www.youtube.com/embed/LrbEmTRhBAI Main Titles (Requiem For A Soldier Instrumental) http://www.youtube.com/embed/V077zS13VVI

Elements of Harmony indeed!

I Lucid dream all the time (I think my record is 7 times in one day, if I remember right). I love them, and they can act as euphoric triggers/amplifiers for me. My name, if anyone is curious, essentially refers to Dream Magic. I will say that I will get sleep paralysis, but it is totally worth it. I recall a time when I was in a SP during school and began hallucinating (or something similar), it was awesome.

At the moment it might be "What you hate me for makes me proud." but it would require a lot of explaining. In short, one way of looking at it is that you can't impress everyone, and even your negative qualities flesh out your character and make your positive ones more noticeable. There is more to it, but again, that would require a lot of explaining.

This is one of those topics that I usually draw a mental blank on. But I do have something that might count, I have the natural ability to experience euphoria without doing anything. Pretty much anything can be enhanced with that feeling, even if you are doing absolutely nothing. Though if I had to pick any day in particular, then it would probably be July 3rd 2010.
