  1. You guys have got to check these guys out. This song is kicking!

      Wow...!  Thanks for sharing this!  Is he switching between a four-string bass and a six-string guitar...?  I thought I heard somewhere that those are two different skills; if he's doing both, then...wow, he's quite the musician!

      Wild coincidence we're online at the same time; I usually take a whole day or two to even see stuff that gets posted on mlpforums, but you posted this a just few minutes ago...!

      I only found out about this on EQD a few minutes ago. So the timing really couldn't be better.

  2. Hey guys. Been awhile, or at least it feels like it has for me. I have officially joined the venerable ranks of military bronies. Just got out of basic as a U.S. Navy Sailor.

      Congratulation!

      ...Great Lakes, you say?  Were you planning on attending Whinny City Pony Con?  I plan to attend it, though it got delayed until July :/

      I would like to, but I'm not sure I'm going to be here then as I leave in a couple of weeks. Even if I could make it, I'm not allowed off the base due to the virus.

  3. Merry Christmas, Happy Heartswarming, and God bless my friends.

  5. Happy Thanksgiving to all my friends.

  6. Happy Nightmare Night everypony!

      :)

      My Nightmare Night could've been happier; it was month-end, and I'm a software developer who writes software that calculates important transactions, and we tend to get swamped with transactions at month-end.  And on top of that, there were some important projects being launched at the end of October, so they needed me to babysit the servers and keep an eye on things until Midnight thursday night!

  7. Happy Nightmare Night everypony.

      A few nights early, aren't we? Not that I'd mind it. :orly:

      Nightmare Night,
      What a fright!
      Give us something
      Good to bite!

  8. Just watched the finale. The ending song nearly had me in tears. I wanted to cry so badly. The ending shot of the Mane Six and Spike had me like Andy at the end of Toy Story 3.

    “Thanks guys.”

      Fully agreed. Literally bookending the whole thing. Brings the entire show into sharp contrast.

      I've not yet seen it; it's downloading to my Mac now, and...well, shoot.  I hope I'm emotionally prepared for this...

      I'm just glad the comics will keep going; they're even calling the next comic series "Season 10".

    4. Sunwalker

      Sunwalker

      I am glad for you!

  9. Five separate Roleplaying sites (including this one), three days, . . . and not one blip on my ads or responses to my ongoing RPs.

    The withdrawal is real. :glimmer:

    1. HereComesTom

      HereComesTom

      RP's?  You mean Role Plays?

      I've never gotten into the roleplaying scene, so I know pretty much nothing about it.

    2. Steel Accord

      Steel Accord

      Yes, that’s what I meant.

  10. Hey guys, where do we post our ponysona character sheets? I know there's a database or something but the ones I can find are locked down.

    1. Dark Horse

      Dark Horse

      The database is being rebuilt for the revamp of the Roleplay section, so they're unavailable at the moment. Until then it will have be done via blog post.

  11. It’s my birthday today. Wishing all my friends well. :)

      Happy birthday to you, my friend :)

  12. Won’t be going to Bronycon. I made a promise that if I wasn’t in the Navy by the time it rolled around I wouldn’t go. Have fun everypony. Take pictures. :(

    1. Sunwalker

      Sunwalker

      That's okay, I understand :)

      If I can’t hold myself to my own promises, how can others depend on me?

    3. Sunwalker

      Yes, I see. :fluttershy:

  13. Happy Fourth of July (my favorite holiday) to all my friends.

  17. Hey everypony. Been a long time since I posted here. Just that I want to write something original and could use a suggestion on what I should be focusing on.

    Kung Fu Zombie: a story following the misadventures of a zombified martial artist as he pummels his way through hordes of his fellows, eats living humans, and shambles through a mystery of how the outbreak happened in the first place.

    American Swordsman: a story set in WWII about a Japanese-American sent to kill an ancient samurai resurrected due to a curse placed upon the U.S. since the Revolutionary War.

    The Last Master: In the far future, the last practitioner of the traditional martial arts lives a peaceful and low tech life on a remote planet before he's challenged by a group of cyborg ring fighters trying to prove his obsolescence.

    So which of these do you guys think is something you'd want to read?

      Can't promise anything but I'll let you know.

    3. HereComesTom

      HereComesTom

      The American Swordsman one really looks interesting to me, too.  Though for a kind of a strange reason.

      In WWII, Japanese-Americans were being interned, and there was a lot of prejudice against them in the USA.  So it's making me wonder:  just who is sending the swordsman on his mission?  The USA's government wouldn't trust him, and Japan's government would likely be out of communication---though if the story takes place before Pearl Harbor, or if Pearl Harbor happens during the story, that might be different...

    4. Steel Accord

      Steel Accord

      Nope. It is the U.S. government doing it. They recruit him right out of the internment camp. You know, like a lot of Japanese Americans who gladly signed up and served during WWII earning more Medals of Honor collectively than any other American unit during the war.

  18. It’s my favorite holiday today! Have a fantastic day my friends!

  19. Hey friends. Just published an article if anypony is interested. It's about Fallout.

    Fallout: An American Fantasy

    Warning: It's NOT satirical. Ironic that it not being satire warrants a warning, isn't it?

  20. Seeing Solo with my fam. Guess what though? At a drive-in theater.

    Happy Memorial Day.

    1. The_Gobo

      The_Gobo

      Hope you have fun! :D
      Haven't been to a drive-in one myself in AGES :o

       

       

    2. Will Guide

      Will Guide

      They still have drive-ins in this day and age? The only drive-in I've been in was that 50's theme restaurant in Hollywood Studios at Walt Disney World.

    3. Dark Horse

      Dark Horse

      Ha! I've often wondered what it would be like to actually attend a drive-in. I guess it would depend on what kind of car you have. ^_^

  21. Hey guys. I have a new blog. I have a lot of short stories and retrospectives on games and movies if you guys want to check it out. Nothing specifically pony related yet but you never know.

  22. Happy Easter to all of my friends.

  23. A bunch of my coworkers are leaving since it’s the end of our work season. We had a big dinner finale.

    . . . I feel the same way as my high school and college graduation. Like all of these friends I’ve made I’ll likely never see again. :’(

      @The_Gobo What? No! Nothing like that. Just that we're in winter sports and winter is coming to an end so some people are leaving. Nothing about the staff or anything.

    3. The_Gobo

      The_Gobo

      Oh! Okay, well maybe some will come back? o3o

      @The_Gobo Next year maybe.

  24. Anypony else find it hard to listen to brony music? Just like, "Oh hey, I'm feeling for a song right now. Let's boot up bronytunes." Suddenly-

      Kadenza & Aurelleah - Firelight

       



      Exiark - Second Hoof Medley

       



      Feather - Leaving Colors

       



      And here's a fourth one because this one is also really good IMO.

      Artattack & Metajoker - Seeya!
