    My personality would be closest to Twilight; I'm an INTP, I enjoy learning and studying, and I always try to apply logic to everything. I guess we're different in that Twilight is more orderly and conventional, while I tend to be more spontaneous. I do, however, have a Pinkie side that occasionally leaks out when I'm really hyper or happy. hahaha... I can get really crazy, laughing at everything, speaking in non-sequiturs, and pulling random pranks, albeit it's a very uncommon phenomenon. I would say I'm also a bit like Fluttershy in my interactions with other people (either with strangers or with large groups/crowds); I can be very unassertive and shy. As for Rainbow Dash, I do have my occasional pranks or crazy stunts, but outside of that I don't think we're very much alike. Rarity speaks with a Trans-atlantic accent, which I occasionally do either to myself or as a joke. Other than that, no real similarities. And Applejack, I don't think we have many similarities either.

    Well, the fake Cadence was a Changeling, not a pony, so it could've simply been a slip-up on Queen Chrysalis' part. The meaning of "people" in this context wouldn't necessarily refer to homo sapiens or humans, but simply to sentient individuals (and it would've been strange for a pony to say it). haha As for the other places where hand is used, I think it's simply to rid of any ambiguities or confusion for a(n English-speaking) human audience that would arise due to the phrasing, especially in idiomatic phrases such as "give a hand", "on the other hand", etc. Yet when one explicitly refers to their literal hand or hoof, using hoof would be much clearer to the audience. I suspect if the ponies were speaking their own unique language, they wouldn't even have such idiomatic phrases as we do in English, and they would rephrase it to something entirely different (and possibly more literal).

    I would love to see Octavia in more episodes; maybe even have an entire episode dedicated to classical music in the Pony world with puns off of the names of famous composers. :3 Maybe she could play J.S. Broncho's Cello Suites, or maybe a concerto by Hay-dn or Vi-foal-di XD Orchestra drama based shows can be quite entertaining too (i.e. "Nodame Cantabile"); it would be amazing to see an episode like that!

    This episode is probably my favourite of the entire series! The part where Octavia and Vinyl where jamming out then burst out of their house with the epic cello dubstep, followed by Gummy's contemplation of life, it literally had me in tears from excitement and laughter. XDDDD This is what I'm talking about :3

    My Favourite Mane 6 Pony: Pinkie Pie How did you find MLP Forums?: I found MLP Forums through the magical and omniscient super-pony known as "Google". How you became a fan of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic: I originally came across MLP in high school, because I enjoyed listening to the music from the show in all the different language dubs. Eventually I watched the first season in Polish, but then I took a small hiatus as my life got a bit hectic with college and everything. A couple months ago, however, I finally started watching season two in my native language and its original (best) dub, English. I'm now in the middle of season five, and this show has certainly proved to be one of the most amazing things in my life. Where to begin... Well, I'm a unicorn and you can call me by my pony name, Poly Lingua, or "Poly" for short. I love learning in general, reading, writing, and of course MLP. My most notable trait, however, would be my affinity for languages and linguistics. I'm a bit of a polyglot (despite being 100% introverted and lacking the confidence/energy to put the languages I know to real use outside of personal conlanging and knowledge acquisition), my best languages being English, Korean, Japanese, Polish, Mandarin, and Russian. I also have studied many other languages here and there including Mongolian, Turkish, Kazakh, Finnish, etc. My favourite language, however, would be either Japanese or English. I really enjoy music too; my main instrument is the contrabass, but I can also play the violin, cello, viola, guitar, bass guitar, and a bit of piano (hence, my favourite pony is Octavia ). For those who know Myer-Briggs, I'm an INTP. Sometimes I can be very 'robot-ish' and 'vulcan-like' similar to Sherlock Hooves; I swear my brain never shuts down trying to analyse everything, and I can sometimes be so callous and not realise it... I tend to be vary lazy/apathetic when it comes to people, thus, I may forget to reply to someone's message for weeks or even months (it's nothing personal), heheh. Anyways, I joined these forums with the hopes of engaging in random discussion over MLP: FiM. However, I'm not the best when it comes to forums; I sometimes get a bit overwhelmed, I can get really persnickety over the quality of my posts (lots of times I never end up posting them), and I guess I'm just nervous, especially if I have to maintain anything with expected consistency. Does anypony have any advice for the world of forums?
