Ziggy + Angel + Rain

I'm fond of insects in general (particularly bees, moths, and beetles), but I dislike mosquitoes, flies, and cockroaches. I'd be surprised if anyone liked those lol. Mosquitoes are especially pointless creatures, if you ask me. I don't really care much for ants, either. I'm looking... And it's friggin' awesome lol.

When the stars are right, and the tentacled Great Cthulhu wakes from his aeons long slumber of dreaming death. When that gelatinous, sticky spawn of the stars emerges from his house in risen R'lyeh... And runs for president. The end.

Being anti-anything is just pointless. ^ This. I don't understand why people devote so much time to... The things they supposedly hate. I see anti-this or anti-that stamps at dA and just wonder, "Why bother advertising what you DON'T like?" I mean, I don't like everything. And I, personally, have been met with acceptance and understanding regarding MLP. But I've seen some "brave," anonymous so-and-so tear into someone for liking MLP or liking something else more than the internet apparently thinks they should be allowed to, and that rubs me the wrong way. Some people are so concerned with how cool they appear or pointing out how uncool something else is that I wonder that they have the time for anything else. I mean, if you're "anti-punching kittens in the face" I get it. There's a cause I'd back. xD But, for the most part, it's just "anti-whatever it is someone else likes." Also, I thought the topic-drawing was clever, and I support pointing out the hypocrisy of others lol. Admittedly, I poke fun at things (even things I like), but I don't deliberately go after the people who like said things. I'm in a defensive position far more often than I'm ever on the offensive. The motivation for a direct attack would be, presumably, rooted in a desire to elevate oneself in the eyes of others and garner undue attention.

I've broken things a number of times (one time my wrist had to be reset) and required stitches twice, but I don't know that those necessarily qualify. On the stiches side: had a window explode on me (my own fault), and a big chunk of glass just landed vertically (and momentarily remained) on my right thumb. No memory of pain whatsoever, but all the blood freaked me out (I hadn't started middle school). I had a cyst on my back very near the spine dealt with. At length lol; the ARNP had real trouble getting into the unexpectedly tough skin on my back with her scalpel. I'm a poor judge of time, but it might've taken thirty - forty minutes. A friend stayed and watched, and apparently it was awesome to behold (stuff just KEPT coming out). I recently had a molar that had troubled me to some degree for YEARS removed. The procedure itself was largely pain-free; though there was no gas involved (just needles and some topical anesthetic, I guess). Soooo happy that thing's gone. Seriously: when the pain was at its worst, it was enough to dethrone my last couple bouts of gastritis as the "worst pain in my life."

Belldandy's a beauty, too - for sure. And Mel was very sweet. Being very pro-Ryoko, I could never really *allow* myself to like Ayeka too much lol. I vaguely remember them sharing an on-screen kiss in one of the series, though... Or I dreamed it; Idunno anymore.

Ryoko from Tenchi Muyo!, still at the top of my list: Rally Vincent (more of a manga girl, really) from Gunsmith Cats: Urd from Ah! My Goddess: These Pretty Soldiers / Sailor Scouts: Aisha ClanClan from Outlaw Star would be here, too, but I don't seem to have an image that really does her justice. OH, and - though she isn't really an anime girl - this lady...

If I'm eating just for taste (and if I'm eating from a bucket, that's probably the case), I'm not sure that I even care how "real" or "fake" something is lol. That being said, I'm not overly fond of KFC's chicken. Their biscuits, on the other hand, are amazing. Made with 100% real, wild-caught biscuits!

I posted my line art for this a while back, and I worked off and on for several days to color it in AA: Sketchpad for Wii U. I think it turned out pretty well, myself. It's very... Green.

I listened to a good deal of it back in middle and high school. Partly, I think, because I was quite literally laughed at for sharing my interest in video game music. But some good came of it, because I genuinely enjoyed some of what I heard. I especially loved Led Zep and Ozzy Osbourne. Nowadays, for the most part, I mostly enjoy J.S. Bach (baroque era stuff), instrumental jazz, and video game music. But I NEVER stopped liking Led Zep, and I still have some affection for the Ozzman. Also, Freddie Mercury has one of the most amazing voices in the history of forever.

Primus: Shake Hands with Beef http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=El5sUrCPnD0 Queen: Another One Bites the Dust Mega Man III: Snake Man's stage theme Most of the Mother 2 (Earthbound) soundtrack lol: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4yC3XyOtkN4 Many a piece by Bach; couldn't figure out which to include xD.

Though I have neglected my 3DS somewhat as of late in favor of my Wii U, I'd say it's definitely worth it. There are several upcoming and recently released titles that I don't currently own / can't afford xD that really belong in my collection. I'll just list what full-version and physical games (have plenty VC and eshop-only as well) I currently own: Super Mario 3D Land New Super Mario Bros. 2 Mario Kart 7 Paper Mario: Sticker Star Mario & Luigi: Dream Team Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds Kid Icarus: Uprising Star Fox 64 3D Pilotwings Resort Pokemon Y Theatrhythm: Final Fantasy Etrian Odyssey IV: Legends of the Titan Animal Crossing: New Leaf Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity Bit.Trip Saga Tetris: Axis Yes, they are mostly Nintendo lol, but I believe the 3DS has ample 3rd party support as well. I just... Need... More moneys xD.

You're absolutely right about the dual platform release of Smash; 3DS owners will even see their release well before Wii U owners (I'm both, so I'mma get both lol).

Though I feel no particular obligation to do so, I'll bite. I don't necessarily consider myself a "clopper," and am not overly fond of labels in general. That being said: I think female cartoon characters are often attractive (to me) for the same reason irl women might be considered attractive. My inherent and inextricable tendency to gravitate towards certain "feminine" qualities (present in their appearance and / or personality); flowing, appealing curves, long eyelashes, relatively higher pitched or softer voice... Granted these are arguably stereotypical qualities / no woman is merely the sum of these things, and I think beauty and attractiveness do not exist in but a single, fixed form. But let's examine cartoon ponies, specifically. I practically regard them as quadrupedal anime girls (those big, gorgeous, emotive eyes) that - let's face it - don't seem especially hung up on the whole wearing-clothing / avoiding indecent exposure type stuff. Long, colorful manes certainly don't hurt. And sometimes even the show itself comes off as a veritable parade of pony butts lol. Having said all this... I'm not entirely sure what I'm meant to persuade you about. If it's whether attraction to one thing or the other is right or wrong... Morality doesn't and shouldn't enter into it. It is neither wrong nor right to be attracted to something or someone. Condemning someone for being attracted to a fictional, colorful pony girl is rather silly and pointless, in my opinion. If anything I wonder... Why are people that find it odd / weird / disturbing seemingly so intrigued by it lol? I haven't been especially vocal about such attractions until fairly recently, but I've seen outspoken detractors voicing their opinions aplenty. I've no particular interest in hurting you or anyone / anything else. I fail, quite miserably, to see how my existence would pose a threat to anyone. I would never "attack" a stranger with explicit material or share - in exacting detail - any fantasies I might have. Or, rather, I'd need a pretty damned straightforward invitation to share anything even remotely explicit (and, even then, would likely be hesitant to do so). I'm not here to convert, harass, or cause discomfort; though I'm not clear as to your motives. I hope that I was able to express my feelings in a way that was neither inflammatory nor offensive.

More water-testing on my part lol; trying my poetry this time: Bore in Ashen Winds by PegaMister (not my real name xD) Her azure wings unfolded And speak to me, she did "Show not this face to others In darkness, keep it hid" No beauty nor perversion No curve nor wing nor eye No lash nor look nor scandal Stay silent, till you die But surely this was music And this reproach her song Spilt lifeblood of the Gorgon No shame nor right nor wrong

I also like how you went absolutely out of your way to prepare everyone for it in the initial post. In a way, that made it funnier lol. "Oh it's just that... Totally should have expected this visual pun."
