  1. At the end of the day MLP is a cartoon aimed at kids in the U.S. (or, more broadly, at Western countries) and as such has to be relatable to them, including in slang and the like. I do think, however, it's done an admirable job of conveying a recognizable society, yet one where sentient ponies, magic, and fantastic creatures exist. Or example, holidays and life milestones that seem plausible within their world, but we could imagine ourselves celebrating something similar.
  2. Vancouver has only been destroyed when it's been standing in for another city getting destroyed. I've never seen a film where they depicted, or even mentioned, Vancouver getting flattened.
  3. It could also be a case of "classic vs. Ronald Moore" scenario. I wasn't thrilled with what I saw prior to the reboot of Battlestar Galactica, but it lasted longer than the original, by far.
  4. It's been eight years. Tastes change, things come and go. I think a lot of bronies are still bronies, they may just not interact with others as much. In short, bronies will become animation's equivalent of Trekkies. In the background, but never gone.
  5. Canadian here. Used to live in Victoria, BC, where Canada's primary Pacific naval base is located. My father was an officer in the Navy and a number of my friends either were or still are in the Forces, some of whom saw postings on ships patrolling the Persian Gulf.
  6. No. I automatically assume the worst intentions of people.
  7. Made a suggestion and offered to help to absolutely the wrong staff member.
  8. Most energy drinks taste like crap to me, so I tend to avoid them.
  9. I prefer to read on paper. I do, however, recognize the value of digital text in keeping some works available in an inexpensive format.
  10. I saw what dropped at Comic Con. The answer is: wait for it.
  11. I suspect he was simply named Macintosh, same as his cousin is simply Braeburn. As an infant they would hardly have been able to tell he'd grow extraordinarily large, so I think "Big" came later as a nickname.
  12. The only times I go into a church is if a friend or family member is having some sort of major life event occur in a church. Last time I set foot in a church was the funeral of a friend's father. Otherwise, being an atheist, I don't go.
  13. They're wearing underwear. Specially designed ginch that matches their coat colour exactly without risking any sudden immodesty by a carelessly swished tail in the middle of important social gatherings. Ginch. Pony ginch.
  14. Well, last year Season 6 didn't come out until Season 7 was done, so I guess this is an improvement. Getting there, perhaps, but I still prefer having my media on some sort of disc rather than on some other type of storage. I've had too many instances of it going "poof" in the past for me not to want a physical copy.
  15. No doubt about who that is. I'm surprised they didn't try to slip that in sooner.
  16. Meh. I should know better.

  17. Seems to take the roleplayer out of the equation. I liked being recognized as the roleplayer of Applejack. Now it's near-anonymous.
  18. 1. Posts per week. 2. That's unfortunate. It will discourage some. 3. Both.
  19. Over 15000 profile views. Seriously, why?

  20. Well, I gave my two cents' worth on EqE roleplay over a year ago, but to reiterate: 1. Lift the minimum posting requirement for cast characters. It's supposed to be fun, not a chore. 2. Allow more than one person to play a cast character at a time. 3. Drop the requirement for a picture of a character when applying.
  21. My longsword stands in the corner of my room, two feet from my head and uneasy reach.
  22. Staff that don't treat users like peasants. Nothing kills a forum quicker for me.
  23. Scouts Canada did this over twenty years ago. About time they joined the 21st Century.
