  1. Nope. I hate social events, and church is one of the most social places on earth. Frankly it's also quite boring if you're not really into it.
  2. ANIME IS REAL (My previous avi was Aaron Burr, this is what I put for that: Great, now I'm a jerk.)
  3. Gotta say, the new MLP Movie teaser is looking pretty damn great!

     

  4. You're most likely contemplating how the universe came to be. Why should a tiny island across the sea regulate the price of tea?
  5. >>> AN URGENT AUTOMATED MESSAGE <<<

  6. Is it weird that I'm super sad about a guy who died 200 years ago?

      You mean Philip? yeah.... He shouldn't have fired to the sky....The other kid only shot'em cause he thought Philip was ready to shoot -_-  

  7. I need to quickly gush about things I caught when I was listening to Hamilton for like the 18th time a week ago (this is copied from a comment I made on reddit):

     

    Something I noticed in Your Obedient Servant:

    In Burr's 3/4 time verses (everything he says except for him challenging Hamilton and the opening lines), he sings all of them (example: "I am slow to anger... but I, toe the line"), showing his more classy/patient nature.

    Hamilton's versus are all said/rapped with no clear melody (example: "I am not the reason no one trusts you, no one knows what you believe"), showing how he's pretty much the opposite of Burr.


    EDIT: Oh! And another thing: In the very end of "The Room Where it Happens", Burr says "Click, boom!" and the song ends. I didn't understand that until now.

    Right before he says that, Hamilton's motif plays (Think back in the song a bit, in the lines: "Alexander Hamilton, what did they to you to get you to sell New York City down the river?" The way "Alexander Hamilton" is sung there is his motif). So the notes that signify and represent Hamilton are played, and then Burr says "Click, boom!". As in, a gunshot.


    EDIT 2: Realized another one with "The Room Where It Happens". In the beginning, most of Hamilton's responses to Burr are short, one-word responses.

    BURR: "Did you hear the news about good old General Mercer?"

    HAMILTON: "No"

    BURR: "You know, Clemont street?"

    HAMILTON: "Yeah"

    BURR: "They renamed it after him the Mercer legacy is secure."

    HAMILTON: "Sure"

    This possibly shows that Hamilton is still a bit shook up/nervous/feeling guilty about what happened in "Say No to This" just a song earlier.


    EDIT 3: ANOTHER thing I noticed today! Once again, this has to do with Your Obedient Servant. In the last lines of the song, we see this:

    HAMILTON & BURR: "I have to honor to be, your obedient servant..."

    HAMILTON: "A dot Ham."

    (pizzicato strings) [<-- this is important]

    BURR: "A dot Burr."

    (full orchestra)

    When were the other times we heard pizzicato strings? Well, we heard them during Burr's lines in My Shot:

    BURR: "Geniuses, lower your voices, you keep out of trouble and you double your choices!" (and onward)

    And during Washington and Hamilton's talk in Cabinet Battle #1:

    WASHINGTON: "You want to pull yourself together?"

    HAMILTON: "I'm sorry, these Virginians are birds of a feather..."

    WASHINGTON: "Young man, I'M from Virginia, so watch your mouth." (and onward)

    Both of these were very calm lines, however Burr's lines in My Shot are a bit more important. Usually when Hamilton raps/sings, it's anything but pizzicato strings, symbolizing him not calming down and being non-stop ("Why do you write like you're running out of time?"). Here, though, Hamilton is the one who's calm and hesitant). Burr is the one who's angry and brash.


    EDIT 4?!: Apologies for the wall of text now, but I've been listening to it everyday and I keep catching stuff.

    Yay, the first one I've found that doesn't involve Hamilton or Burr! It's a short one too. Here's some lyrics from 'The Schuyler Sisters':

    ANGELICA, ELIZA, & PEGGY: "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal."

    ANGELICA: "And when I meet Thomas Jefferson, I'mma compel him to include women in the sequel!"

    Well, she definitely did meet Jefferson...

  8. I've never really been harmed by April Fool's day, so I'm fine with it. It also gives me an excuse to change further emphasize my unhealthy obsession with Hamilton
  9. This is the closest thing I'll get to a proper "april fools" joke

      If I had only seen this before the Rarity thing!

      Well mister Hamilton ... I did throw away my shot. 

  10. CONFESSION TIME, HERE'S WHAT I'VE GOT: MY FELLOW SOLDIERS WILL TELL YOU I'M A TERRIBLE SHOT Apologies if this sounds tame, I having really done anything daring with my life Only thing worthy of a "confession" would be that my friend was in the bathroom for 10 minutes and I had to go so bad I grabbed an empty water bottle from I trash and went in that.
  11. Happy April Fool's day!

     

    BOW TO RARITY, OUR NEW OVERLORD

  12. Rolling back to eventually unsupported software could be a huge security risk, sooo... I'm completely fine with this new look.
  13. They need to fit hands better. It's not a console, guys. You don't have to make it brick-shaped all the time.
  14. I hate "For Men" products because of the smell they have. I don't wan to smell like a macho muscular lady's man, I want to smell like a coconut, dammit "Women's" products seem to work better for me anyway.
  15. Oh, you wouldn't believe what subreddits there are. I actually subscribed to /r/OnionLove just because I got banned from /r/OnionHate It's like Rule 34. If it exists, there's a subreddit for it.
  16. So, quick question: Should I put my sexuality in my "About me" page? I don't really see any reason to, and at the same time, I don't see any reason not to, so I'm just wondering.

    Might put it there just because 'why not'

    1. Nerdy Luigi

      I did, and it totally ruined the sexuality guessing thread =P (I'm such a troll...)

  17. I got banned from /r/OnionHate for saying I liked onions if that counts I've been suspended for a couple days, but never fully banned (and trust me, I intend to keep it that way).
  18. PC + Internet. I'm fine with having to walk everywhere if I have internet access And hey, I could always take a bus as well
  19. Quick word of advice: If your laptop has an internal microphone, DO. NOT. TURN THE "MIC PLAYBACK" FUNCTION ON

    My ears hurt for like 2 hours after that ;-;

  20. I seriously recommend listening to the whole soundtrack it in order, it's the same as watching the musical since in the musical every song is played back to back anyways.
  21. ^^^^^ Just another reason why this shouldn't happen. There are already websites that host this sort of stuff, what's the benefit of having a section here?
  22. What I'm going to say has been stated by others already, but I'll say it anyway. MLPF would crash and burn if a clop section was put into place. You don't see things like Freedom Planet forums, or Sonic forums, or Mario forums having NSFW sections, right? I have no problem with people who like clop, what they're into is none of my business, and I won't think less of them for liking clop, but stuff like that is meant to be kept elsewhere, not on an all-ages forum.
