  1. Once, when I was a kid and didn't know any better. I got caught, spanked, and learned the hard way that it's wrong to steal. TPAM thinks chocolate is overrated.
  2. Sounds like Kyon from The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya? "Now, count up your sins! (Saa, omae no tsumi wo kazoero!)"
  3. Samurai, on his way to the stands, looks up at Lorec and nods with a gentle smile. "That would be great, if you don't mind sitting around some of my personal decor." True to his word, and just like last time, the place he sits in the stands becomes decorated with some of his oriental decorations. But there is room for two, it's not at all cramped. "It's Lorec, right? I hope you don't see me as foolish... Lately, my people have been very weary about outsiders. We have a hard time welcoming them openly, and I didn't come here expecting to make friends, but that's another story. You keep good company, Lorec-san; and I'm glad to know there are some amazing competitors here after all. When things change in my homeland, if you ever get a chance to visit Japon, I hope you visit either during the Spring or Summer Matsuri, when the cherry blossoms are in full bloom." When the match begins, when the phoenixes have gathered to bow before this griffin, Samurai Equine gives his full attention to the match about to unfold.
  4. Anime really does come up with the best hair styles. Just ask Yugi Muto!
  5. Not guessing the user above me, just wanted to say that I was quoting Spoony.
  6. Not yet, but she'll get there. Why do people on the internet like foods like bacon, cookies, etc?
  7. Aww, Callisto! Why you gotta be so rude? Don't you know we're ponies too? Why you gotta be so rude? We're gonna count to 49 anyways... The 6th Ranger joins the team!
  8. ...Sonic's in my bed. If this is a dream, please god, don't wake me up.
  9. That's even more funny, because I'm actually half Mexican on my father's side! But I was raised and grew up in America, so I don't speak much Spanish.
  10. False, but I do think her origins are more interesting and probably more developed than Samantha's origins and back story. TPAM secretly loves iCarly.
  11. EDIT: Nevermind. I wasn't on the last page. The only real limits are the ones you give yourself, not the ones life tries to give you.
  12. Oh, hi Rose. *is about to drift back asleep* ROSE!!! *leaps out of bed* Is the Doctor here?! Is the world in danger?! Please don't tell him about us sharing a bed...
  13. The user above me does not look SFW. I need an adult!
  14. You know, I actually saw a 1-panel comic related to this, once. Basically it was about fangirls who go crazy over their yaoi shippings. I think the comic depicted some girl browsing the internet, and she was saying "Hetero? That's unnatural!" Of course, this comic was probably just for the lulz. Ah, yes, I remember this video. Someone on Tumblr shared it. It shows how wrong it is to discriminate or bully someone based on their sexuality. It's actually more about supporting the LBGT and their life styles than anything, and does so by making heterosexuality the minority rather than the norm. The video at the start of this topic? I guess it also does the same thing, they even use the derogatory word "Breeders", but this one definitely brings the message home. I don't think it's about Heterophobia. I doubt Heterophobia will ever be the norm across the majority of society, not after modern societies have fought so long and hard to dispel Heterophobia and other kinds of discrimination and hate mongering. I almost cannot take it seriously. However, I do know that times are changing, and it is getting harder to maintain lasting relationships. I remember seeing a video about how some desperate people would rather have virtual boyfriend and girlfriends instead of trying to get a real one. I know the drama of relationships can be too much at times, but that is just sad and pathetic...
  15. Oh boy... Let's just say, becoming a man has been difficult over the years. Mostly because, growing up, I didn't have a father to show me the way. To answer the question, yes, I do cry. But only when I feel like the situation calls for it. I try not to wear my emotions on my sleeve these days... When I was a little boy in elementary school, I remember a time when I was crying. Something unfair had set me off. But everyone was walking away and ignoring me completely, including teachers. In that moment, I forced myself to stop crying. I told myself "Men don't cry. It's time to grow up and stop being a baby." I was probably in the 1st or 2nd grade at the time. When you're a kid and a boy, crying doesn't earn you sympathizers or friends. At most, other kids will just laugh at you and make fun of you for being a crybaby. And for many years in my life, I didn't cry at all, even when I felt terrible inside. I bottled up most of my emotions, and it turned me into a complete wreck. But as I became an adult, and with the help of girlfriends and other adults older and wiser than me, I learned a few things. I learned... Throw away your foolish pride. Pride is okay to have, but not when it is foolish. Not when it keeps you from making an emotional connection to those closest to you and those who want to be close to you. Not when it keeps you from being a better person. Having emotions doesn't make you weak, it makes you human. Despite what others may say, we all do. Just telling someone to "toughen up" or "stop crying" is an emotional response as well. None of us are unfeeling robots. It's okay to cry. Sh*t happens in life. People you love die, people make mistakes, nothing lasts forever, and our lives can fall apart around us. If we can't grieve, we can never move on. There's no shame in crying when we need to. Eventually, I learned to let go and let it out, to feel like a normal human being, and yes I even re-taught myself how to cry. And you know what? I'm better for it. But I've had so much drama in my life, I've decided it's no use just being a bundle of nerves and emotion. If you want to see my emotions, you have to earn it. You have to get to know me better, someone has to pass on, you have to share in the things I like and don't like. Outside of that, I'd rather not get emotional if I don't have to. Maybe, if I can be stronger then that, I might be able to the pillar of strength that people can rely on.
  16. The user above me appears to be some kind of ultimate cosmic knowledge, but how do I APPLY that knowledge?
  17. Maybe because I don't WANT to answer it seriously, Dad! Can someone please define or provide examples of normal without using a dictionary?
  18. Umm... *waves hand* This is not the bedroom you're looking for. Move along.
  19. Didn't Fruit Roll Ups come in a Rainbow flavor? I always thought it'd taste like that.
  20. Hmm... How did I choose Samurai Equine's color scheme? Hmm... Well, let me look at him without his armor and refresh my memory... Ah, yes. I remember now. It was so hard designing my character... I always knew I wanted a red pony, but I've seen like TONS of other red fan character ponies before, so i didn't want to just be a similar one people have seen over and over. So, after seeing the horses in the show Gingaman, I got inspired to throw in some brown in a shaggy, layered kind of way. The hooves and the muzzle are there because I wanted a defined muzzle and hooves, but they are white because I wanted to throw some white in there and that just seemed like the logical choice. If I threw too much white in there, well, he'd look a little saint-like, and I didn't want that. As for the mane and tail, well... I got the orange based on a different pony FC that a friend on DeviantArt gave me. I liked the orange, but I wanted to make it two-toned. Since I all ready had some brown on the body, I thought I'd add a darker brown for his hair à la Doctor Whooves. And I liked what I saw. Gave him kind of a rustic/artifact feel to him. As for his hair and mane style, I hard the hardest time picking that out. Finally found something I liked based off a 1 time background character. Absolutely NO ONE has successfully guessed who to this day. But here's a hint: Sweet and Elite. But that's just for his natural colors. How I designed his armor and the colors for that is another story.
