  1. Well then, I have to say that's a bizarre character to see.

     

    However, I do wish that she'd not try to impress the world and instead start taking care of herself. I think she's doing it for attention, but if she actually enjoys doing so and no one else is getting harmed, then I'm pretty indifferent about it.

     

    If she chose to live with the makeup and bizarre mentality, then I'd let her be. I know I wouldn't give a reaction that she is seeking from the media and others.

    Crazy? A bit is an understatement.

    Should society criticize? I don't think so. She never made statements on society being ugly, so people in return shouldn't be quick to criticize her looks.

    I'll just be indifferent about it.

    Well she says the makeup and doll-like look ARE to get attention. She gives lectures on spirituality and astral projection, and said that people are more likely to listen to someone they find attractive. So she actually has a reason for her exotic get-ups. It's hard to believe, but the only kind of surgery she's had was on her breasts. Still, she must be starving herself to death. I can barely see her waist. Surely there are other ways to grab people's attention.

  2. Meet Valeria Lukyanova. This Ukrainian girl looks just like a real-life Barbie. Is there more to her than that? Absolutely.

     

    Amatue, the spiritual name she identifies as, comes from the planet Venus. Apparently, she has extrasensory abilities, and can communicate with her DNA through spiritual rituals and Lemurian chants.

     

    I think that she may have had traumatic childhood experiences that her mind represses (she mentions seeing "spirits" at the foot of her bed trying to "attack" her). She speaks very metaphorically. Valeria is quite the character, that's for sure! :lol:

     

    So what do you think? Is she just a pretty face, is she a lunatic, or what? 

  3. New Cartoon Network is okay. I don't really care for any of the shows on there anymore, besides Adventure Time. My little sister is 8, and I got the opportunity to introduce her to the shows we had in the "golden years" (Flapjack, Jonny Bravo, Billy and Mandy, Foster's, Teen Titans, Courage, etc.) She agrees that these shows were better than the ones they are running now. But they can't keep the same cartoons, as the writers will eventually run out of ideas (Ed, Edd n Eddy comes to mind). I just wish they had something besides Boomerang where I could watch my favorite childhood shows. Boomerang doesn't air these shows much, it's mostly "classic" cartoons. I just want to watch shows like Samurai Jack and Dexter's Lab, and I feel like they would fit better with their own network than one that caters mostly to Hannah Barbara programs. Just my two cents  :)

  4. Stepping down from the carriage and tossing a few bits to the driver, Shady Bubbles had finally arrived at the port of the Generosity.

     

    It looks even more amazing in person, the mare thought to herself as she slowly approached the boarding area. I wonder what mother would say if she could see me now - boarding a real airship owned by Rarity herself!

     

    It certainly was a spectacular sight. Although she had predicted a huge crowd of ponies to be on board, there seemed to be only a small group. That's all she could see from the ground, at least. Not that this bothered her - she had never been one for crowds. 

     

    As she grew closer and closer to the port, she caught sight of the guards. These stallions were tall and muscular, and had stern, no-nonsense looks on their faces. These types of ponies presented a problem for Shady. They could be quite intimidating for anypony, but for a mare with a background like hers, they were the epitome of fear itself. 

     

    Alright Shady, this will be the hard part. These ponies have no intentions of hurting you, remember? They don't even know you. You can do this.

     

    Shady approached the guards nervously. She had to be cautious here. It was natural for her to be anxious around such serious characters, but she couldn't reveal her emotions through conversation. Should the stallions find her to be a bit too nervous, they might think she was plotting against the fair Rarity. Presenting a ticket would be a simple task for most ponies; Shady, on the other hand, found situations like these to be difficult and stressful. 

     

    She stepped up to the guards in her regal white dress, designed by the host herself many years ago. She looked quite beautiful in this type of attire, but her demeanor tended to conflict with her physical appearance. She suffered from a lack of self-confidence, and her behavior tended to reflect this trait. She only hoped that the guards wouldn't catch wind of her timid nature; she had to board this ship, and the security believing that she was conspiring against Rarity certainly wouldn't help.

     

    "Um... Hello... My name is... um... Shady Bubbles and I was invited to board this... ship thingy."

     

    Nice going. "Ship thingy". They certainly won't think you are plotting an assassination now, she thought to herself. You must have confidence. This conversation will be the deciding factor for whether you get to board or not. Don't buck it up. You can do this.

     

    "Um... Oh yes, I suppose you need to see my ticket... I have it right here in my bag... Um... Hold on just a moment."

     

    The mare began shuffling through her bag's contents rapidly. She was clearly intimidated, and sweat beads began to form on her brow. 

     

    Sweet Celestia, girl, get ahold of yourself! You need to focus on why you're here in the first place. 

     

    "Aha! Here it is!" She presented her invitation with glee. It was unknown to Shady if the guards caught wind of her sudden excitement, or if they even cared. She only hoped they would accept the ticket without asking too many questions. It wasn't that she was planning anything dastardly, but rather that she didn't wish to interact with them longer than she had to.

     

    Alright Shady, this is it. The moment of truth. Don't act suspicious.

     

    Using every bit of confidence she had, Shady tried to collect herself while she anxiously awaited the guards' response.

  5. If your writing desk is perched upon a bust of Pallas, you need to see a psychiatrist.

    Possible answer: They both have quills (well, writing desks used to have quills...)

     

    As much as I love you for using this answer, it's not right.

     

     

    He sang happy birthday. It can have anyone's name in it!

  6. A poor man is sitting in a pub. He sees that the man next to him is extremely rich.

     

    Poor man: I have an amazing talent; I know almost every song that has ever existed.

     

    The rich man laughs.

     

    Poor man: I am willing to bet you all the money you have in your wallet that I can sing a popular song that includes a lady's name of your choosing.

     

    The rich man laughs again. He thinks of all the obvious ones, like Barbara Anne and Billie Jean, before deciding on a name that hasn't been used in a song before.

     

    Rich man: OK, how about my daughter's name, Joanna Armstrong-Miller?

     

    The poor man goes home rich.

     

    What song did he sing?

  7. Hahaha.... Yes indeed.... When I first heard that one, it took me 3 days to figure it out.... Clever word play.... It works better when it's spoken though lol

    It's kinda like the hotel one. When you hear it rather than read it, it will stump you  :okiedokielokie:

     

    I see how you would think that, but that's not the answer, let's just say....a bust is also involved

    Oh, and here's another good one

    It is a Sunday morning. The wife went to the store, came back and her husband was dead. The kids said they were playing with the dog. The maid said she was getting the mail. The chef said he was making Lunch. Who did it?

     

     

    It was the maid, in the kitchen, with the candlestick! The mail doesn't get delivered on Sundays (at least not in the US)

     

  8. Correct amundo

    And is nopony gonna try my other one?

    How is a raven like a writing desk?

    I have no answer for this. You got me on this one. My only guess would be

    They both have the letter "e"

     

     

     

     

     

    Uh... Are you a shoe?

     

     

     

     

    Ok here's an easy one....

     

    Ok so Sonya turned the nut three times clockwise, 3 quarters of a turn counterclockwise, then 5/8 of a turn clockwise. Assuming its initial position was zero (and a full turn counting as 1) what position was the screw?

     

    I'd say the same position it was in in the first place, since she was turning the nut, not the screw

     

  9. Because for pretty much all of season 4, she's still just Twilight. No one treats her any differently.

     

    That had fans in an uproar as well. She's a princess now right? Shouldn't her new role be addressed somehow?

     

    That's when Twilight's Kingdom came in to fill in the gaps and answer all of those questions we had. We found out what was in the box, we got to see Twilight struggle to understand her place as princess, and we watched as Golden Oaks Library was transformed into Twi's very own castle.

     

    S4 was excellent in my opinion. It's still very much the same show. You can't expect the characters to remain the same way they were in the earlier episodes. Any good show has some sort of character growth, and MLP is no exception.  :)

  10. Here's an easy one

     

    I run over fields and woods all day. Under the bed at night I sit not alone. My tongue hangs out, up and to the rear, awaiting to be filled in the morning. What am I?

     

    Is it a shoe?

     

     

    My thunder comes before the lightning. My lightning comes before the clouds. My rain dries all the land it touches. What am I?

  11. the 29 is wrong, if you work back from 30 it all makes sense 30-3=27 -2 =25

    the 29 is wrong, if you work back from 30 it all makes sense 30-3=27 -2 =25

     

     

     

    10+10+10= 30. 30-5 = 25. 5-2= 3. So the manager is holding 25 dollars, the bellboy is holding 2 dollars, and each of the three men are holding 1 dollar a piece when everything is said and done. 25 + 2 + 3= 30. That dollar got eliminated by bad math, more specifically not using PEMDAS or order of operations.

     

     

    Man that on gave me a headache... Thnx. Lol

    Wow  :muffins:  It was that simple the whole time? I feel like an idiot.

    But it still doesn't add up, since the men would be paying $27 for a $25 rent.

     

    Well, I guess since the bellboy cheated them out of $2 it would make sense. It's just the way it is worded that makes it confusing.

     

    My head hurts  :yay: I hate math

  12. the math is off...that's the only explanation....

    Well yeah, I figured as much. I just don't see how. This one has caused me quite a few headaches over the years. Someone who's a  better at math than me should explain it  :muffins:

  13.  

     

     

    You are ..... nothing.

     

     

     

     

    Filler for 20 characters.

    Very good.

    This is one straight from my grandmother. It irritates me to no end, as I don't actually know the answer  :huh:

     

    Three men came to stay at a hotel, and when they went to the desk to check in, they decided to share a room to save money.

     

    The manager assigned them a room and charged them $30 altogether. Each paid $10 for his share, and then they all were shown up to their room by the bellboy.

     

    A short while later, the manager discovered that she had overcharged the three men for the room she had assigned them; it was actually only $25. She took $5 out of the till and instructed the bellboy to go up to their room and return the money to them.

     

    The bellboy saw an opportunity to make a little extra tip. He rationalized that $5 was difficult to split three ways, and decided to take up $3 to the men, giving each of them $1 return, and pocket the other $2 for himself.

     

    So the men each put in $10 and got $1 back. So that's $9 times 3, which is $27, plus the $2 the bellboy took makes $29. Where is the other $1?

  14. I already clicked the spoiler, and that seems kinda...I dunno, that kinda dumb that makes sense...

     

    Oh, here's an oldie but a goodie

     

    In the morning I stand on four legs, in the afternoon, on two, and at night three what am I?

    man

     

    Man. Four in infancy, two in adulthood, two + a cane in seniority

     

     

    Sorry bout tht.

     

    A man comes into town on Sunday, and stays 4 days, and leaves on Saturday.

     

    How does he do it?

     

    He changes time zones? That's all I got

     

     

    Here's a good one.

    I preceded God.

    I am greater than God.

    I am more evil than Satan.

    Poor people have me.

    Wealthy people need me.

    If you eat me, you will die.

    What am I?

  15. I've got 3 I can think of.

    1. How many days of the week start with "T"?

     

    2. When I am young, I am tall. When I am old, I am short. When I am young, I am solid. When I am old, I am liquid. What am I?

     

    3. I keep dry as I get wet. What am I?

  16. Here's one. You're in a room with two exits, one blue door, one red door. At each door stands a guard, in a blue or a red uniform, depending on which door they stand in front of. One door will lead to certain doom, the other to freedom. You know that one guard will always lie, and the other will always tell the truth, but you don't know which one is which. You may only ask ONE guard ONE question (that's one in total, not one to each guard). What is the question you have to ask to be certain of leaving the room safely?

     

    Edit: Added some vital information I forgot. Gomen!

    I remember this one from Labyrinth. :)

     

    You ask the red guard if the blue guard would say that the red door leads to freedom. If he says yes, that means the red door leads to certain death. If the red guard is telling the truth, he will say that the liar would say the red door leads to freedom. If the red guard is lying, he will say that the blue guard would say the red door leads to freedom, even though that's not what the blue guard would say since he's the honest one. The same logic can be applied if he says no.

     

     

    I hope I explained that right  :muffins: But even if I didn't it's the right answer.

  18. What songs do you think flawlessly fits Pinkie Pie's spirit?

     

    The Beastie Boys come to mind

     

    And this gem from Chance fits pretty well, because it's so upbeat and carefree

     

    I'm sure there has to be better songs that match her personality (probably something polka) but these were the ones I thought of  :)

  19. Ahh, cursive writing. We learned it in 3rd grade, and I've only used it since to sign off on important things like checks and contracts. It's beautiful, but impractical as not many people can read it. I can, but the newer generation of kids will not be taught how to read or write cursive (my sister still wouldn't know had I not taught her myself).

     

     

    I leave with this. Can you read it?

    "Page writing, sometimes called body writing, requires the ixercise (?) of all the skill we possess in using the pen. Care should be taken in the arrangement of the writing"
