  1. I have beenI love how MLP showed kids, and us bronies, just how horrible big cities are. I Blame big cities for the downfall of humanity; you go to one and people(ponies) could care less about you.

     

    I understand the viewpoint of cities not being the right place everypony to live comfortably, before judging all big cities consider the following:

     

    -Cities are where people of different ethnic backgrounds need to cohabitate ie taking the subway together, share common spaces like shops and restaurants, and living on the same block if we're taking about major US cities.

    -It is harder to get oneself noticed in the city when starting a career because there are more people doing the same thing and competing for the same jobs. Notice the try-outs Rarity was working so hard for.

    -Cities on average are more expensive than neighboring towns.

     

     

    With these examples alone it is apparent that living in a city can be harder to live in than a small town. "Rarity Takes Manehattan" was most accurate when the episode was driving the point that ponies who live in dense cities don't have the same laid-back attitude as the ponies in Ponyville. It's harder to make friends because survival in the city is everypony's main concern, eventually everypony adapts a hardened attitude. Ultimately lesson I learned and that I want everyone to take away is that even when everypony hustles day and night in the big city it is still important to show a little bit of kindness toward others. Here in the big city is where we need it most.

     

    thanks.

  2. Hello!  Just popping by to inform you that, as we already have a thread dedicated to chatting - I've merged your thread with the already existing 'General Chat Thread'.

     

    Always a good idea to ensure thread's don't already existing by searching beforehand  ^^  

     

    Thanks!

    Sweet avatar, did you make it yourself?

  3. Where's the babes guys? Usually threads like this are loaded with pervy talk. I haven't seen a pic of a girl posted yet. C'mon guys.

    We're waiting for you start the pervy talk.

  4. I haven't been in here for a while, what's going on? Thought I'd check in.

     

    I don't have a job anymore, I quit it. Just wasn't anything that I wanted to continue doing, I need to find another one soon.

     

    I do have class today though, and maybe that would help because they have a job list.

    Word, buddy. I am looking for a job since I couldn't get into all classes. Since just one class shy of full-time I could work 15 hours at say, a coffee shop.

     

    Anyway, typography was hella chill today. What class did you have today?

  5. This episode hit close to home for me as my dream is to move away from home to start my career as a designer. Being born in and living in a metropolitan city myself I have noticed that people are nicer to you if they know you got the bread. Still in school and once I graduate I know to choose my battle wisely when starting my career, learning from Rarity's experience. I can say I learned quite a bit from this episode.

     

    On a lighter note I want to pat all the animators on the back for nailing the "Hipster Pony" look on this one, they never cease to amaze me at how well they research contemporary culture. Every young artist or young professional in my town looks just like that.

  6. Oops well I guess I can add that to my surgery list too.

     

    And to answer your question it was terrible for the first day. I ended up waking up from the anesthesia sick and they gave me medicine for it and I happened to be allergic to that so they gave me Benadryl and I passed out again, I still can't remember anything from 9 AM to 5 PM that day, but apparently I screamed at my sister to shut up when she wasn't even talking 0_0

     

    Im not trying to scare anyone though, my situation was rare haha 

    I count this as a surgery. I had my wisdom teeth removed and it was hell. Now I laugh at how fat my face got, how much it hurt, tearing a burrito with my teeth because I couldn't bite or be bothered with a milkshake diet, my mother throwing away my pain pills. By tossing my pills she gipped me out of some money.

     

  7. Pretty sure we already have one of these.

     

     

    It's called the Girls Only Thread.

    Goddamnit that was good!

     

    I'm a guy and I don't wear deoderant.
