  1. I don't know who's a fan of Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, but I got in an analysis mood and wrote about its most poignant, tone-changing line.

    Hope you enjoy it! :yay:

      I'll give this a read later, I am quite fond of the original movie. 

  2. Watching Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory for the first time in a golden while!

      Old man gets out of bed after twenty years & admits it was all a trick to get chocolate. :orly:

  3. As well as he should! ^_^ 

     

  4. Clearly, the consequences Discord suffered during Ending Of were too light. His plan to make Twilight “achieve” her confidence was boneheaded, dangerous, and manipulative. However, be realistic. Punishments like time in the dungeon or returning to stone are terrible ideas, as he didn’t technically commit any of the planned crimes. Cozy, Tirek, and Chryssie deviated from all of “Grogar’s” ideas and made them their own. Make the consequence fit to repel the manipulation surrounding his plan. Something like the Terrible Trio forcing him to watch helplessly as his friends get manhandled or become part of the group that almost gets destroyed could work, because it balances the scale of the plan that Discord never planned ahead to how poorly his idea backfired on Equestria and Twilight’s psyche.

      I think Discord should have faced some sort of a punishment for letting Tirek out of Tartarus. :wau:

      The more I think of it, the more I realise how much I disliked The Ending of the End. It's by no stretch terrible, but... some characters made some less than perfect desicions.

      The Mane 6 are certainly a forgiving bunch... :adorkable: Discord just never really seems to learn, especially considering the events of "Twilight's Kingdom" (I wonder what would have happened if Tirek hadn't betrayed him)...

  5. Wow. All four division winners fall this week! :wau:

  6. Wouldn’t it be insane and barbaric to have to pay six grand out of your pocket before you can apply for electricity, heat, or air conditioning? I assume you’ll say “yes.” Thankfully, America doesn’t do that (yet).

    Apply the same logic regard a nonexistent “deductible” for electricity insurance for our existing deductibles for health insurance, and it’s equally insane and barbaric.

  7. This didn't age well:

      Thank you my fellow "Dark" person. XD

  9. Bernie’s continuous, firm criticisms against the War Machine that pollutes Congress and the corporate “media” shows his leadership and why he’s the best Democratic candidate. He's the clearest and most consistent critic of American imperialism against Iran, something we needed then and especially now. #Bernie2020

      Just watched Bernie's response in this video (starts at 45 min) 

       

  10. The U.S. lied about Saddam Hussein and Iraq having WMDs, getting us to a war there that created ISIS.

    The U.S. lied about Venezuela so we could get their national oil and nearly succeeding overthrowing Maduro.

    The U.S. lied about election fraud in Bolivia and supported a coup that overthrew Evo Morales.

    The U.S. and the Pentagon lied for the last 18 years regarding military assignments in Afghanistan so the military-industrial complex can get really rich.

    Last night’s assassination of Soleimani resulted in the rising of Raytheon’s and Lockheed Martin’s stocks.

    Why the fuck should we believe ANYTHING the Pentagon and U.S. military intelligence claims regarding Iran and Soleimani?

      Mark my words, the Republicans will do everything they can to convince the public to support yet another war with Iran.

      Here No Longer

      Lying is your average newscaster and politican's favorite pass-time in this country, so I'm in no way surprised they'd lie and say Soleimani planned an attack on the US with nothing whatsoever backing up the blatantly fallacious claim.

       

      I'm seriously getting more and more sick of this country the more and more I'm hearing about this. :angry: But there's PLENTY to be sick and tired of anyways, because the US government is the world's best funded terrorist organization.

  11. I don't give a damn about Qassem Soleimani being a brutal war criminal. The Trump administration used a drone to assassinate someone in an international airport (seen as a safe haven) who lived in a country they weren't at war with, without Congressional approval, and who had a high approval rating in his own country. It's one of the dumbest, most reckless foreign blunders in American history! Trump committed a war crime and declared a war on Iran, which just wanted to be left the fuck alone!

    And the manufactured support from the mainstream media in response to this is nothing short of disgusting. The MSM and its pundits lusted for war in Iraq, coups in Bolivia and Venezuela, and now prepared to fire up the war machine with Iran.

    1. Here No Longer

      Here No Longer

      And why should we care if he's a war criminal? Most presidents in recent history have been war criminals as well, but of course, they can't be because THEY'RE OUR PRESIDENT, RIGHT, CORPORATE-OWNED MAINSTREAM CENTRIST AND RIGHT-WING MEDIA? Their coverage of stuff like this is not only pathetic, it's evidence of their corruption.

       

      Oh and that includes Trump more so than most any other example... :dry:

    2. JonasDarkmane

      JonasDarkmane

      I've been looking up Qassem's background. This is the guy who masterminded ISIS downfall on land in Iraq. This guy is not only revered in Iran, but by a ton of Iraqis, especially along the Shia sect. 

      If the US wanted to end Secterian violence in Iraq, they just managed to shoot it up by a ton~

  12. The assassination of Qassem Soleimani is an act of war declared by the Trump administration. What started as Congress and almost all of the Senate voting for a sanctions package in 2017 to include Iran (violating the nuclear deal agreed to with the Obama administration) has escalated to this.

      It solidifies to me, further than already, that Trump and his ardent supporters are totally insane and beyond reason. They actively parade around excited that thousands of troops will die, for what? Nothing good, that's for sure.

    4. Kyoshi

      Kyoshi

      Keep in mind, the strike that killed Qassem was being covered up as an "attack by Iran against US interests", until it was confirmed that Qassem was killed then the US admitted that they did it. So the Trump administration and all of mainstream lied directly to the public. This entire time, those two groups have been banging the drums of war regardless of any outcome. The US public should be rioting in the streets right now, demanding resignations in the federal government. Those in the army should be speaking up as well. Fuck the rules of "you can't speak out while enlisted". 

  13. Happy 2020, bronies! *blows party favor*

  14. Been reading and hearing about the catastrophic fires going around in Australia. To all the Aussie bronies, please be safe!

      Yeah, I've heard there have been a ton. I saw a couple nearby early last week, which is not a good sign.

  15. >reads up on latest update of crappy Lana/Bashley "story"

    Well, that's…somethin'. Now can this "story" please fade away?

      This is one of the reasons why I stick to the WWE games. 

      At least with the games I can avoid stuff like...Whatever that was. 

  16. Last day of the decade! So excited! :pinkie:

      I hope it's an amazing one for you, my friend! :squee:

  17. The Cubs breaking their 108-year "curse" is the biggest sports story of the century so far. But Leicester City overcoming 5000-1 odds to win the Premiere League championship (their first big title in their 120-year history) is a major sleeper.

  18. Browns coach Freddie Kitchens fired! How shocking! */sarcasm*

      New season, same old Browns.

  19. Monday’s Scrooge’s favorite day of the week. His employees have to return to work and deliver more trouble. :P

      Don't you mean, d-d-d-danger? :P

  20. Bernie Sanders: “Billionaires will start paying their fare share of taxes!”

      Only in the USA would billionaires pay less overall in taxes than the middle class and at least half of the middle class is like "yeah we're okay with that".

  21. A duckling’s most feared punishment in Duckburg isn’t a time-out. It’s having their favorite Pep replaced with New Coke. :P 

    1. Sparklefan1234

      Sparklefan1234

      ezgif-6-6ba132e39e9d.gif I agree with Webby on this one.

  22. Louie Duck’s least favorite day of the whole week’s Monday. He’d have to go back to work and not lazily drink Pep all day long. ;) 

    1. Sparklefan1234

      Sparklefan1234

      Louie has perfected the art of laziness.

       I'm sure he already has a few stooges lined up to do his bidding whenever he needs them. ^_^

       

       :proud: <--- Louie lounging.

      Monday? That’s my D&D night! :mlp_icwudt:

  23. Rewatching Scare Master reminds me of how much I enjoyed it. It’s really, really good, explaining quite well why FS was so terrified of Nightmare Night, how she overcame it to appreciate it, and yet doesn’t like it after trying it.

    1. Kyoshi

      Kyoshi

      That episode was a lovely surprise to me. I adore the message of her trying it out, but sticking with what she loves most.

    2. Cash In

      Cash In

      Agreed. One of my favourites.

    3. TheAnimationFanatic

      TheAnimationFanatic

      One of my favorite Fluttershy episodes.
