General How famous do you think you are on the forums?
skbl17 replied to ~Starlight~'s topic in General Discussion
I'm not famous at all, especially considering the fact that I keep taking multi-month breaks and largely keep my posting to the Beyond Equestria subforum. -
Not counting college transit options, it's been two years since my last trip on public transit. Prior to mid-2016, I lived in an area that was pretty close to a train station, so instead of having to drive 35 miles each way to get to and from class, I would just drive 5-10 minutes to the closest rail station and take the train in. I will say that I never had any issues with either my train or bus commutes, and I actually kind of miss it. Now I live too far away for public transit to make any kind of commuting sense, even with the rush hour traffic jams.

What's The Weather Like Right Now Where You Live?
skbl17 replied to Lucky Bolt's topic in General Discussion
Typical summer weather here in Atlanta. Hot, humid, scattered "garden variety" thunderstorms in the afternoon and early evening. -
Here I am posting this reply minutes to 4 in the morning... I consider midnight to be too early, and during long vacations it's not uncommon for me to stay up until sunrise.

The list is very, very long: wheat, gluten, peanuts, tree nuts, shellfish, eggs, bananas (I kid you not,)...let's just say that I never got to enjoy pizza or ice cream as a child.

For many, many years I thought my eye color was black. They're actually brown.

Do users' profile pictures affect your opinion of them?
skbl17 replied to \/'s topic in General Discussion
Not really; I care more about the content of your posts than the profile picture and signature. On mobile, the profile pictures are practically pinpricks anyway. -
I don't use "brony lingo", not even with the people I know to be bronies. That said, I've never been a huge fan of "20% cooler"; I don't know, it's just that whenever I hear that term, I always think, "Why 20%? Why not make it twice as cooler?"

Snow in the South is rare. Snow in the South on Christmas Day is extremely rare. That's what made 2010 so magical; it's too bad I didn't take pictures. It all seems like just a distant memory, a far cry from the 72 degrees I saw today. What White Christmas?

What is your top fandom(s) that you have stayed the longest and still a fan?
skbl17 replied to TBD's topic in General Discussion
MLP. I've been a closet brony since 2011, and while my interest in the show has waned, I still read the occasional fanfic, participate in some MLP-related communities (this one and the MLP parts of Reddit,) write excessively long bits of lore, and make vectors for my OCs, so I've been going on five years now. By contrast, I was in the Sonic fandom for only about three years (2008-2011), and I'm not anything close to being a "member" of other fanbases. -
Looking back, the only difference between my internet self in 2009 and my internet self now is that when I write roleplay-related lore, at least the MLP ones make more sense than my old Sonic the Hedgehog ones. The verbosity is still there, though; I still have endless-block-of-text writing down pat.

I love it when I don't have to drive in it. Thankfully, the last time my area had anything resembling a good snow event, I didn't have a driver's license. Of course, as a bit of a weather nerd, it kind of sucks to live in an area just far enough north to spend the winter pulling my hair out model-watching, but just far enough south that snow doesn't come every year.

Health When Was The Last Time You Fell Ill?
skbl17 replied to Venomous's topic in General Discussion
A little over a week ago; I honestly would have preferred even a regular cold to whatever I had. I didn't have much of an appetite, the head pain was horrible, the stomach pain was intense, I had a fever lasted a full day, I had to go to the bathroom every half hour....needless to say, I didn't have the energy to do much of anything. At least I'm all better now!
