  1. That's a good question. It might have to do with the fact that femininity is often shown through delicacy. For example, butterflies are often viewed as feminine creature, because of their beauty and fragility. Maybe long eyelashes are considered feminine for the same basic reason, they're a sign of beauty and they themselves are delicate. Does that make sense? I'm just kinda spitballin' here.
  2. Hello everyone! I couldn't find time to make it on here yesterday, so what's up? How's everyone been?

      I need to get Persona 4 Golden for the Vita. It would finally give my Vita some worth.

      I want P4G, Project Diva f, and Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc for the vita because they seem like the only ones worth it besides some other JRPGs

  3. Is the real reason that Seasons 3 and 4 have come under fire, because of the show's formulaic approach to topics (including repeating the same mistakes)? It's just some food for thought.

      I've got to admit season 3 actually was kind of strange not ending in a double parter episode however season 1 didn't either at least season 1 was longer but still season 4 has really great episodes I actually watched Rarity takes Manehatten today.

      I'm not criticizing the show to be clear, every show has a formula. I am however saying that it is likely that the critics are just being more critical of the show due to repetition.

      @Ghostie

      It's come under its fair share, but S3 is an easier target for everybody.

  4. I checked his videos out, and he seems pretty good......I'll subscribe to him.
  5. I'm going to be doing a full review on Mario Kart 8 shortly after its release, because turtles.

      Oh, it will be glorious, no doubt. ;)

  6. "Spike's belief that he lit the Equestria Games torch with his mind might seem like Insane Troll Logic, but the previous episode had him dealing with magic that allowed the user to perform magic just by thinking about it, and he did eat the book that gave Rarity that power in the first place." - TvTropes......Mind = Blown.

      They also explain that the "Hair Spray Ray of Doom" might not have worked on Spike anyway, because he's hairless, and that the real reason Bulk and Fluttershy were the only candidates for the relay is because the others thought it was a lost cause to try and keep up with the Wonderbolts. Interesting stuff, but I think all this falls into fanon rather than canon.

    3. Nuke87654

      Nuke87654

      True, but it's fanon with merit. Now if only these thoughts you've found were also thought of by the writers as it may help explain some flaws in these episodes away.

      Yea, but let's be realistic, they probably weren't thinking about this stuff while writing the given episodes.

  7. I'm still surprised by the fact that so many people don't like Equestria Games. :(

      No, conform to the group norm! Unless you are one of us, you will never get the coca cola formula.

  8. 1. Pinkie Pride - My new favorite episode of the series. Not much else to say, really. 2. Equestria Games - Ok, I know this episode is VERY polarizing. If you don't like it, fine. It's your opinion, but to me this episode fixed up Spike's character, much like I feel Pinkie's was fixed up in a A Friend In Deed. Spike was stupid at times, but don't we all have our moments? Anyway, I think it shows Spike at his highest highs, his lowest lows, and blends his previously inconsistent portrayals into a cohesive character (plus, it helps that I very much relate to the moral). 3. For Whom the Sweetie Belle Toils - Just like the other two I mentioned so far I think that this is a great episode that I find extremely relatable. 4. Rarity Takes Manehattan - Basically tied with #3, for just being a brilliant portrayal of the give and take of generosity. 5. Pinkie Apple Pie - This episode was hilarious and heartwarming to me. It could have easily stumbled down the path of mediocrity give its premise, but it didn't miss a single comedic or emotional beat on its journey, in my opinion.
  9. Below's my least favorite episode for each member of the Mane 6 + Spike. Rarity: Simple Ways (not horrible just meh) Rainbow Dash: Rainbow Falls (My least favorite episode of the show, but I still love Dashie) Twilight Sparkle: Feeling Pinkie Keen (I don't dislike it, but it's definitely her weakest outing, imo) Fluttershy: The Stare Master (again not terrible just meh) Applejack: Apple Family Reunion (the ultimate flat-line episode for me) Spike: Owl's Well That Ends Well (my second least favorite episode in the series)
  10. Is it bad that I use this avatar, because I feel bad when I leave out the members of the main cast? (Yes, that includes Spike)

  11. This is, hands down, my favorite Nostalgia Critic review: www.youtube.com/watch?v=WnIEBkTGSCc

      But I also do like Nostalgia Critic :3

      I love that he brings to light the strengths of Kubrick and Spielberg without truly placing blame on anyone in particular, personally.

      Fair enough, Geek. Can't argue with that.

  12. Does this count? Her fabulosity readings are off the charts!!!
  13. Oh....Sorry, I have no filter I suppose. I'll stop now. CHEERS TO 300 PAGES!!!
  14. I could very easily explain it, but they probably won't listen. *scratches head* I suppose I didn't really think about that...
  15. Clopping doesn't make you a weirdo, it's natural.
  16. I don't know if this is out of line, so feel free not to respond, but do you (or anyone else in this fanclub) clop? I have no problem with it, I'm just curious. Oh and here's Rarity in a go-kart for no explicable reason. I have to admit she has a certain serene grace about her even in a motor vehicle.
  17. I haven't been here, but I have to say without Season 4 going on there's not enough Rarity. I-*cough* WE NEED MORE!!!
  18. Thank you for that DQ, I can't stand that bullshit excuse.
  19. All of the main cast get a little lovey-dovey with one another, but they're just friends. This situation is no different in my eyes.
  20. I very much disagree with your placement of Equestria Games and Flight to the Finish (my list is on my blog if you're curious), and I think PTS is a pretty good two-parter, miles better than Friendship is Magic anyway.
  21. Wow, that was a long critique. I don't even know where to begin if I wanted to respond, but luckily I don't have a whole lot to say. I do think, like you, that this is a step up from A Canterlot Wedding, but I think The Best Night Ever, while fantastic, doesn't really feel like a season finale. That's about all I really wanted to say, so good review even if I'm way less critical than you about shows in general.
  22. I don't like this show at all, but that goes for Nickelodeon in general recently. Nickelodeon is horrible now, and that can't be nostalgia talking, because I don't think Cartoon Network or Disney are doing all that bad right now. Sure all of these channels have their fair share of stinkers, but I don't see any good in the new Nick shows (minus the aforementioned TUFF Puppy which was decent)
  23. AJ has had a strong season with only Rainbow Falls, Trade Ya!, and Somepony To Watch Over Me netting her portrayal any negative reception. She also has a new running gag with her eyebrow raise of suspicion. Similarly,I feel like Rarity, Pinkie, and Spike got a lot more love this season than they have in a while (minus the Three's a Crowd and Filli Vanilli drama for Pinkie, and again Rainbow Falls for Rarity). It was a great season for all of them, in my opinion.
  24. Pet peeve of mine: Using a term without knowing its actual meaning.
