    From one self-aware text-waller (I'm trying to stop) to another: Aren't there better uses for your time? What are you accomplishing by writing novels to complete strangers online?

    Cute, but I think filly-Dash is cuter. Rogue of the X-Men.

    Why don't you just write an original horror story? If all you're after is attention (like the above poster went on about), you're potentially beholden to what the fandom wants or expects from you. But if you create a work that isn't inherently derivative (I mean blatantly and deliberately so), you may ultimately find an audience relying purely on the merits of the original story, characters, and world you created.

    So your criteria for pony cuteness is whether or not they have eye shadow?

    Ah, I forgot! My mom would talk about them and how she (and I assume others) used to call them "Iggys."

    I only just learned how to make composite vids with green screen footage in the video editing software I use, and it's surprisingly easy. I've only done the following two so far, and I should probably stop myself before things get out of hand.

    I just learned how to make composite shots using green screen footage in HitFilm, and my first video obviously had to involve MLP and Shia LaBeouf.

    I feel as though this image fits the quote:

    At that point, you've ceased to talk about MLP:FIM's Pinkamena. I don't consider the fandom's confused, grimdork interpretations of Pinkamena - or any of the ponies - to be applicable; they don't color how I think of the ponies.

    I look to context and verb tense. I can't remember someone saying to me, verbatim, "What did you do this weekend?" (Though you or I could easily infer what was meant.) However, it's not unlikely to hear, "What are you doing this weekend?" It's "this" weekend because it's the "end" of this "week"; that's fairly logical and straightforward even from a grammatical standpoint. If I'm on a path (A to B ) and headed in a particular direction, I wouldn't refer to my destination as the "next" end. I'm moving towards the end of this path; my destination is this path's end. We aren't computers; they ain't got nothing on humans. I can reason out what someone actually means by taking context into account, and I neither need - nor necessarily expect - precise language. Besides: For some people, their spoken grammar isn't as exact as their written grammar. I know what someone is saying even if they aren't talking like a grammarian writes.

    She's pretty, and I quite like all the blue. Now I'm going to post a character so the next poster can respond. < _< Iris West from TV's "The Flash."

    If anyone tries to *noms your ear* or *rubs your belly*, you should let them know if they're barking up the wrong tree. I will dispense internet *hugs* on occasion, but I've been in situations where people started doing things I wasn't even comfortable with in text-form. So I said, "That thing yer doin'? I don like that thing." But then, I do belong to someone. Anywho, Widders: CONTEXT. Suggestive nomming (that possibly led to Flurryheart, just saying): Non-suggestive nomming (just pretend it's an ear-nom - makes no difference in this context): The intent is pretty clear in both. Intent is key; this applies to any interaction you may have with someone, too. If you don't know their intent - or they don't know yours - it can and probably should be clarified; preferably before things get weird. Or you get arrested. For internet ear-noms. (That probably won't happen; I'm not up to speed on internet ear-noms laws and regulations).

    I think it's likely that, in time, MLP:FIM will inspire feelings of nostalgia for both the children (for whom gen 4 was their first exposure to MLP) and the already-adults that watched the series or participated in the fandom. While the Hello Kitty brand has been handled by people with enough sense to capitalize on its appeal to kids and fans who simply got older, the MLP brand (in terms of sales to adults) has been, perhaps, better handled by third parties. For example: I just purchased a Christmas-themed Rainbow Dash shirt from a site that caters to all sorts of fans of popular culture old and new. Hasbro didn't have anything to do with that. Do you see Hasbro-approved or manufactured adult t-shirts of first gen ponies? No? I think that's less to do with demand and more to do with Hasbro's unwillingness or inability to market to aging fans.

    I've been working on a new piece featuring Angelbabe, and I'm pleased with it so far. I probably won't be posting the completed version to the RDFC, so I just screencapped my progress so far: AiH - Progress so Far (screencap in Photoshop) by me

    Much like Rainbow Dash in that scene, I found the stool-balancing act to be more compelling than the history lesson. ^ ^; I've never been much for history, admittedly.

    I enjoy the holiday season. Halloween is fun, Thanksgiving is about family and deliberate overeating, and Christmas is about giving and getting presents to and from loved ones. Yes, it gets cold, and I don't care for that. Yes, I've burped four thousand times in the wake of Turkey Day. But I generally look forward to the holidays and what they bring throughout these few months.

    "The Man Who Burped Too Much." The back cover would read, "The incredible true story of one man's struggle against acid indigestion."

    Whenever I see a reference to the stool-balancing scene from season four's "Testing Testing 1 2 3," I can't help but think of the criticisms some people had around the time of its airing. "I wish Dash hadn't done that," or, "I thought that was disrespectful of her." I always liked that moment, and, nowadays, it's satisfying to me that it seems to be remembered fondly. A couple of seasons or years from now, people will probably be pointing to Dash moments from seasons five and six and expressing similar fondness.

    Before I joined MLPF or even watched through the first season of MLP:FIM, I came up with and drew a pony lady who I named - and I'm pretty sure this is correct:

    *Brohooves all the doggos.* I'm a water doge; never mind that I'm a cat person and have a fear of drowning.

    I will carry my unfettered rage across the land; burning as I go and laying waste to all that I see. I think that's only reasonable.

    No, I want exactly ZERO cuteness. Zilch. Nada. Cuteness, you aren't welcome 'round these parts; I'll put out a sign. I think the film - based on an animated children's series about ponies with big, glistening eyes and pretty manes - should be super DARK and tackle the really important issues of today. Issues like war, poverty, and game show hosts-turned-president. What DON'T we want? CUTE! And where DON'T we want it? The upcoming MLP movie.
