  1. So I got to see Predacons Rising three weeks early. Iunno how, but Hasbro has some REALLY loose screws.

  2. We're living in a second Cuban Missile Crisis and life goes on as normal... O_O

  3. As a wise man said above - "MLP:FiM gained its fame for largely avoiding cliches like that."...y'know, despite Equestria Girls and mishandling the toy marketing and stuff... Anyway, probably not that much given that I stopped watching the show a while back and focus mostly on the Comic now. However, if the Budget Shining Armour sneaks his way into the Comics, then well...
  4. Yeah, no. I see this as going down as well as the whole "Fur and Loathing" episode from Vanilla CSI. And being completely honest, the only time I can recall an even remotely good, light hearted stab at Bronies was one Teen Titan's Go! segment. You know the one. Having said that though, a TV Series called Bones has done an episode on "pony play fetishists" (no I have no idea what the actual fetish is or if it's even remotely related to Ponies). I'm not sure what the hell that is, but it might be close to some of the more...cloptastic sides of the fandom. That's just my guess though.
  5. Honest opinion? For every pony who loudly writes a Journal Entry on leaving and whines about it, there are ten who understand that sometimes discretion is the better part of valour and thus will just one day stop visiting. For reasoning, it varies. It could be as simple as having RL commitments or just generally being bored with the place. It could be something much darker, but I could find nothing that suggests anything of the sort from his recent posts and status updates. Generally, the people who just stop visiting though have the right idea. It is probably best to be forgotten about in best case. Y'know, assuming you haven't done anything stupid -_-
  6. Short answer - I really couldn't care less about Molestia. It is a thing that exists, and I'd rather keep it that way. I'm not a fan, but if you like it that's your bag and I really couldn't care less. Like Derpy.
  7. I think a Pony that big would probably squash a Jaeger X3
  8. So presuming anyone reads my blog, as you know the Blog usually updates on a Wednesday. However, it hasn't for the past couple of weeks. Assuming I have regular readers, I owe you an explanation of what is currently going on. I am going back to College. Yes, I am going back to College. The last couple of weeks have been spent preparing (and trying to get on a course in the first place) for the upcoming academic year. I will be restudying art for a planned period of Four Years, not counting when and if I decide to attend University (which is as I see it the requirement of anyone seriously looking for a Career in a non-standard job) - but hopefully I'll be able to draw again. As such, I haven't had the headspace to attend to the Blog. For anyone wondering, enrolment is on the 30th of August, and we start offically on the 2nd of September. That, and I've had to push priorities down. Since nobody really reads the blog anyhow, the priority in updating it and keeping it relevant has slipped down further and further. I'm not really the kind of guy to try "selling out" or doing the whole "LOOK AT ME, LOOK AT ME!" thing (because I know how annoying "Buy my book!" sounds), but if nobody's reading why even bother in the first place? So in shorthand - Been busy organising for College. Blog has taken a backseat due to low viewership. So, what would this mean for the Blog? Assuming I don't cancel it to focus on my studies, it's timeslot is definitely going to move as College Hours require. I don't know if I should or not though. On a less depressing note, here's a happy bouncing Pony. Until next time, I have been your GABEN.
  9. I'm very dissapointed that I missed the Equestria Daily Artist Training yesterday. Then again...

    1. XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

      Do it anyway, what do you have to lose? It's tough to be noticed amongst the ATG crowd BUT the personal experience is what's vital my friend!

       

      Do it, push yourself to the limit!

  10. I don't know about Fairness, seeing as how that ties into Honesty. However, I think a bigger argument along these lines could be made for something like the Element of Diplomacy - then again, that would fix half the problems the show has with it's scripts, so... X3
  11. So...you put the Cookie down, did you? X3
  12. Because I should ask this, would a link to an OC's profile page work for you? If not, I can write it all out here instead.
  13. Pretty much any time there's a musical number. It usually means I have to skip 3 or 4 minutes of an episode or be placed into such writhing agony it can physically manifest itself. And most of the time it's padding anyway (I swear you could remove the musical number from the Cider episode, and it would be a much shorter episode without it). Also, most of Season 2 qualifies. It was so bad I had to stop watching the show.
  14. Atlas woke up startled. His body was covered in cold sweat, much to the misfortune of Starshine. He then rolled over in the opposite direction of where Starshine was standing, flattening a few idle trees in the process as he looked around in a dazed fashion.
  15. YOLO! X3

    1. Moonlight
    2. Eureka

      Eureka

      People are still yoloing?

      They'll stop in 3 Days time I'm sure X3

  16. 90's Disney shows. To be more specific, most of their movie licensed shows (Hercules and Aladdin for example), and then there's (correct me if I am wrong) things like Pepperanne (spelt correctly?) and Doug. It's gotten to the point where I fear for anything with the Disney name attached to it, because it'll either get screwed over (Tron: Uprising) or just be - well - terrible (any of the previously mentioned items). Also, just to commit more heresy, I also wasn't (and still are not) a fan of - The Powerpuff Girls SWAT Katz Huh. That was a short list. Now excuse me while I go rig up a long list of 80's Cartoons I didn't like...
  17. Screw you guys, I'm off to College! X3

  18. Unfortunately for everyone in proximity, Atlas was not exactly someone you wanted to sleep near. The colossal Pony thrashed and rolled around in his sleep as he lived out the same horrific nightmare each night, creating a raucous din for miles around and preventing anyone nearby from sleeping. At least the Hut was not in danger of being flattened?
  19. Um...if it's not too much hassle...could we get a little more detail on the RP? Please? Also, you've posted this in the wrong forum. This is for Roleplays that have a OOC thread and are past the planning stage, and thus are in progress. There's a separate piece of board space for Roleplay Planning & OOC Discussion.
  20. I need to get away from the Forums for a while...things are not going well...

  21. Well ladies and gentlemen, it finally happened...I've had the Luna Dream... X3

  22. Whoever said Chaos Demons were underpowered was lying though their teeth.

  23. Indeed. I apologise if my comments may have gotten a bit out of hand. Though at least we can agree a better name is required. Unfortunately however, Mythological Horses tend to be close relatives to the Pegasi - I had previously thought the Turkish Tulpar would have been a better name...until upon closer reading it was basically a Pegasus. Again, my apologies if I went a bit overboard. It's a habit of mine during debate time -_- However, I still stand by above point, especially upon looking up one of the definitions of the word - Which naturally leaves out the Earth Ponies too (BTW, source on this is Wiktionary, so take with salt pinch).
