  1. Can we talk about what that is around Celestia’s & Luna’s neck? Cause that ain’t a necklace. That’s a two-foot thick cord of gold & solid metal of a neck brace the Queens are hoisting like it ain’t no big! 
    ... I wanna solid gold yoke!

      flash bees or parasprytes would work(they never did solve that problem now that i think about it, they just sent them to the next unfortunate city)

      ... to be honest I'd rather encounter flash bees, parasprites and flyders at the same time than a swarm of mundane wasps. :sealed:

      Flyders sounds like an 80s toyline. … Wait...

       Flash Mobs Bees, are just a natural nuiscence in this magical world. And, come to think of it, Equestria has a lot of hostile Nature. Likely from ponies constantly meddling with it where it doesn't need it.

      But no, You can't contain anything in anything intended to be welded shut. If you consider that jewelry for royals has been known to reach an upwards of 5 to 25 pounds intended to be worn around the neck... yeah, unweildlyness isn't too far to be expected.

       And like... that throne disabled the powers of a GOD AND EMBODIMENT OF CHAOS, A NATURAL FORCE OF THE EXISTENCE OF THIS WORLD... Oh, and that appearently nopony in this world protects world-ending artifacts so that any actual CHILD can walk right in and take them...

       Yeah, protecting something dangerous is asking too much sanity from this world. Turns out Tartarus is literally just a cave where they plop cages around haphazardly!

       ...Nnngh. one moment, need to form another ranty status update... 

  2. I think I just saw a Corgi/Pug mix pupper. Puggi? ........ Cug?!

    Doggos are such adorable mutants!

  3. I've always had bushy, untameable hair. Comes with having super curly of a mane. Always did envy my dad for his long, straight hair and have always held that hair exemplifies your personality & thought process... Now that I'm on my own... I have sworn to grow it out continuously. Like, floor length eventually. Yes, as a male. It's so floofy n' soft! It's like a constant face hug! Sure, its grown down to my mouth now and my face does get itchy, but it hasn't outweighed how much I love having a fluffy cloud of a head!
  4. The Hugs must Sparkle. One day, and one day soon! They shall look upon my work and know! For it is I, the Shidder of Whins! That controls the Shtick!!! Ah, I leave it up to your choices, @Pastel-chan& @Blitz Boom. Do you want me to be trailing in a monster for your fillies to fight? Perhaps several somethings monsters?
  5. @Blitz Boom It was a massacre. Whoever had broken in clearly hadn't much respect for what others had, judging by the mess. Shelves were knocked askew as if somepony had been ricocheting off them, a donut box, likely the one Berry Swirl was sent here to get, lay trampled soundly on the ground. Moreover, the room was thick with a cloud of powdered sugar floating in the air. Bags of sugar lay torn to shreds about the room where one could see around the sugary cloud. At a far corner, a form was loudly shuffling around. At her call, the intruder's head popped up and whipped around in her direction, a sack of sugar slipping off its muzzle. It stepped forward through the cloud of sugar stopping a few feet away from her, a tall stallion with perhaps a little too long of a neck. With a loud buzz from his wings, Flit Cephalli parted the white cloud to reveal his madly grinning smile on a muzzle positively drenched in the white powder he had just been eating, if not outright snorting. Tall and lanky, the bright green stallion stood higher than he was wide with a wide, playful grin framed by the long mane of brightly, obviously dyed red hair that fell to either side of his neck. Flit greets her with a lyrical, fishing Irish lilt, clearly unconcerned with being caught wrecking the place and decidedly now concerned with something he cares far more for than sugar. "Oh, aye~ A MARE~ What a right Treat like yew doin' here, Lassie?" ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- B.B & @Sekel "SMALL?!!? What a lad gat ta dew ta BEAT the respect outta ya? Ya don' just up an' insult a buddy raght off like thet! T'ain't o'w tha world works!!" The little stubborn doorstop of a pony ranted, in spite of that being how this mess of a fight had started. Most of who react to things with anger like Shortstack does do tend to glaze over their part in things. Observation was, of course, also not something foremost on his mind. He hadn't just then given a care for how much Dazzle was beaten up. Fortunate now that that was interrupted. Being swooped down on from behind was an unwise tactic against Shortstack. He got kicked onto his face and out of balance easy enough, but that gave him what he needed most in his fighting style. Leverage. As those from various other styles of fighting would muse upon, being confronted by one with more mass or muscle than you did not give them the upper hand. A literal flying tackle from Stargazer sent the both of them skidding across the cobblestones as expected, but this put the small stallion under his full weight. Like he had before several times during his attack of the female dragonpony, he worked his head & strong neck muscles under the batpony officer... and sent him flying right back. Repelling him against the other side of the circular square they stood in against the wall like Dazzle was a ninety degrees away from Stargazer. Panting enraged, Shortstack stood up to yell after the form he hadn't fully seen prior to his toss, his back to the street the batpony had flown from. Hulking and heaving, he bellows out in the general direction of the rest of the world. "Ah'll take yeh ALL ON! I'll fight e'ry last one of yeh! I ain't some tiny runt that ain't fit ta live! I'll beat ya all till I ain' got nuttin left! THA WHOLE WORLD GAWT TAE FIGHT ME THEN? THEN I'LL KILL MYSELF TAE KILL YEH ALL! I'LL SHOW YOU WHO'S FIT TA FIGHT!! I'LL SHOW YOU WHO'S THE BIGGEST AROUND TO-" Thud. Thud. Two large hooves plant themselves firmly on either side of Shortstack as a shadow looms over him. Sunny Flush stands over him, his small muscular form barely bigger around than one of her legs. Shortstack's expression immediately changes to a much less strained one as it gives over to a depressed, resigned state. "Shortie? Y'all bein' a Meanie Doodyhead again?" "... Sunny, we'vebeenoverthis.Notinpublic." "We don' make fwends by throwin' people. That hurts! An' hugs is healin'! Ya gotta care, ya gotta share, y'know!" "I'mdoinathing.Teachinalessoninrespectandthat'sonlyathinglearnedtruhardshipinaworldthat... you ain't listenin'." A big yellow hoof scoops under Shortstack, and in the same motion she plops down in the square and squeezes her little, older brother tight to her chest. With all feet fully off the ground, Shortstack can't grab for anything to push against and can't reach anything but the enveloping fluff of his bigger, younger sister. The one thing to defeat any rage monster, is being forced to sit still and actually address your issues. As any pony would, especially at his small stature, Sunny's hugs are near inescapable. He dangles in her arm for all the world like a little filly's toy being hugged by its oppressively cheery owner. Shortstack had long since learned there wasn't a thing he could do in this position and stood glaring silent and grumpy now. After a minute, Sunny, the big mare that she was, would tuck her tiny brother unquestioningly under one hoof and go collect both Dazzle and the Officer Stargazer and go to stand in the center of the area to hug and coo over them in a motherly fashion. No matter their injuries, the warm, sparkly tingle of her hug would give them at least a much more soothed feeling and technically heal them back to full health. She stood there, with all three ponies easily fitting in her hug with Dazzle in the middle, with Shortstack to her right and the officer to her left. In a grumble as low as he can manage the stallion whispers to Dazzle as she lay healing in hug. "...say a word about this, an' ah rip yer head off." "Shush-a-shush! S'all better now!" This would signal to what crowd had gathered that the situation had been fully dealt with. Besides collateral damage, of course. This would then be where Scarcity would enter the scene, to a dispersing crowd, rubble about, and one giant mare giving a sparkly hug to three ponies at once. ~*Meanwhile!*~ Blither met Mayor Mare with another nervous sigh and sweaty smile. Turning to Alonsus he regards his efforts having not made a move towards the food. "Oh, but this is quite much! You really didn't have to! I had hoped we could set out to see what we could do to find another of my sire? I would hate to think they were doing any harm to your great cityscape!" To that, he was getting the feeling he wasn't getting much anywhere with the mayor. Authority figures didn't seem much glad to deal with the Cephalli family. (OOC: Yes, Flag here for setting up another brother!) ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ @Sekel "I don't know what these pony words are." The drake asked Dawn Streak bluntly. "Grocery, 'buying food,' Boy-Friend. How you're supposed to get food without killing it yourself, I don't know. I also don't know why you're so hesitant to call me this Friend Thing. ...why? You trying to insult me and confuse me with your made-up Pony phrases?" Kaltrop had spent only a few years in the pony world after his hatching and such words hadn't been used around him enough to take notice. What he was used to was the hardships of the Wild, and this would have to be a new world the mare would have to teach him. ============================================================================================ @Catpone Cerberus Oh, I've been listening to you at least. But that depends on if you've been listening to my listening!~ It is good you've learned where to go! I don't know if you've noticed but providing the structure myself isn't quite my Forte! Widdershins asked with a smile. And whilst we're travelling, how about you explain to me how these little Cuteballs got to be a threat? Harmless little balls of cute eh? What harm could there be? ################################################# @Blitz Boom & @Pastel-chan "AaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaAaaaaaaa!" Came in the long trailing cry of what was both a fine example of the phrase "a mindless scream" and The Doppler Affect. Ahead of the path the two fillies were walking currently there came somepony bursting through the underbrush and various other plant matter trailing a cloud of twigs, leaves and very many bright orange feathers. Moving at so fast a speed to be near-instant, it was hard to make out anything but what had to have been somepony and a whole lot of feather debris. Whatever it was, it burst right back out of sight into the brush on the other side of the path. Somepony needed help! Anything that made that much noise out in the Everfree tended to not stay alive for very long.
  6. Think I've settled on a Kirin name now. Judging by how often I've been repeating it in my head.

     Whet Kindle! The emotional wreck!

    "Hi, I'm Whet!"

         "...you're wet?"

    "No, Whet."

      "What are you talking about? You're saying it wheird~"

  7. You don't hear much about Present Sight as a super power. Technically speaking, there's almost no practical use to forseeing the Future. It's so malleable as to be useless.

     Prognosticating the Past can have Loads of uses and could save a lot of lives. There's so much that gets forgotten or hidden in the past.

     But seeing what's happening Now?! All at once?!!? To be able to see into any room in the planet, no matter where you are could have so much use! Just flipping Presents like channels in  your eyes can do so much! "Wait, Mr. President let me check..... Nope, Soviets are fine, just trying to manage their own government. A bit of underhanded spy work but mostly against themselves. ….Wait, wait... Yes, Mexico's aiming something at us. Doesn't look very functional though. Might wanna send someone. 

       ...aaaaand… Yes, do think that's a massive, scary black cloud forming over Europe. Probably prioritize that."

    ...Admittedly, that would mean you would also technically be fully disconnected with your current surroundings on account of tuning into to all of your planet at once. But hey, free entertainment and I'm like that anyway.

    1. Duality

      Duality

      The fun times begin when you gain the ability to see into the future - but strictly the future of other universes. Is this near-identical universe going to turn out the same as ours will? Will it turn out completely different due to that one butterfly that flapped its wings weirdly? Why is this universe where Russia is populated by unicorns progressing on an identical political path to the one where Donald Trump is a communist? It's like a sitcom but existentially terrifying due to the apparent irrelevancy of human agency! :kirin:

    2. Widdershins

      Widdershins

      @Duality

       Are you saying Trump ISN’T a communist?! I’m sorry, that was bad of me... to assume Communist means “Really Mean Person.”

       But there, you just admitted Future Sight was irrelevant. You’re technically just having vivid hallucinations at that point.

       It is the highest attack Psychic move though.

  8. I'd just like to point out: Your OC little son, shares a name with Sonic's actual, canonical, Birth Name.

     Ogelvy Maurice. 

    Thy art Sonic. 

     The sheer irony of this name being reused somehow. I expect frequent references. Heck, they're both blue & spiky aren't they?!

  9. Just rewatched the Bridle Gossip episode again. You ever notice the Poison Joke seems to target the qualities a pony uses & cherishes most often?

     Rarity's hair, Twilight's horn, Dash's wings, Pinkie's mouth, Fluttershy's.... well, okay, maybe she just hyperventilates alot and she sucked in spores. But Applejacks Size? AJ uses her Size alot? 

    "Oh, ah hears ya. Your argument sure is sound... but yer fergittin'... I'm LARGE." :bedeyes:

      She probably walked into a goomba. Just give her a mushroom and she’ll be right as rain.

  10. I.... still cannot comprehend how Cozy Glow managed to be a threat.

     This world doesn’t protect artifacts that can drain the lifeforce of an entire planet? The protagonists willingly lock themselves up? A mare that broke the time continuum is stupid enough to walk into a glowing ball of magic? It takes the entire Equestrian Army to subdue an 8 year old child?!!?

     This is what we end MLP on? 

    1. Sparklefan1234

      Sparklefan1234

      Yep, you're pretty spot-on.

      Like, seriously. "I can't disperse this rainstorm on my own." It's Rainbow Dash, she is repeatedly shown kicking the moisture out of clouds and the whole "Ten Seconds Flat" thing. She can at least push it out of the way.

       Literally everyone, without exception is made incompetent so we can have a threat. Cozy's only power is in riling a mob and taking advantage of bottomless stupidity. Nopony found it the least bit alarming that she was essentially doing everypony's job for them? And felt no shame that a grown mare had to depend on an eight year old? And even then, she had to be led and instructed by an imprisoned convict? The government here doesn't find it a bad idea to have the guy that literally ate everypony's souls have any access to the outside world? Oh wait, only a select few had a key to that Tartarus hell analogy Cave with Random Cages so how did mail regularly get in & out?!

       Why does MLP have such a horrible time on Two-Parters?

  11. @Sekel Surely I'm not the only dude to have practiced battlecries, lol! I fully expect for it to eventually come up, @Blitz Boom : "So, uh, Sir? We have reports that you */Rustle of police report papers* said to the subject that you would, and I quote 'Rip out her still beating heart.' .... Just a bit overkill, wouldn't you say?" Shortstack, pouting: "... It's called a Taunt! It ain't meant to be literal!" Oh, and B.B? I called up the post where I set things up with Flit, if it helps any?
  12. @Blitz Boom Blither's gaze lingered on Chop's retreating, silent form with a somewhat worried grimace on his muzzle. There was a vague, unsteady respect akin to when a timberwolf passes a cragadile in the deep woods, a sort of violent camaraderie between major predators based only on the fact that both sides know that even if a tussle happened and they came out victorious it would have dealt too much of a toll on either side to be worth picking a fight. Or something like that mused in the much smaller stallion's head, at least nothing too much trouble had happened. To no one in particular, He said out loud hestitantly. "...well, best to make use of what comes. Can't have wanton acts of violence and destruction." Turning to the mayor as if to reassure her and hopefully deter to a less tense topic, he questioned her. "Society can't be built without structure or agreed upon harmony. You'll have to forgive me, but in my reading and research I've not heard much of Ponyville. Most who talk of here treat it as idealic a place to live... but a bit, uhm, chaotic. I guess the reputation of a cityplace becomes infamous when it requires montly visits from the nation's ruler, heh? You have much trouble here? I don't mean to gossip, but Ponyville is often talked of as a place where all are accepted?" Blither aimed a sheepish, nervous smile in an attempt to disarm any further negative opinions of himself. Afterward he turns to regard Alonsus to comfort him as well. "Oh, my condolences Sir Alonsus! I don't mean to correct you! It's just a bit of second habit for me! Most of my family disregard the effort I've put into reading up on the annuals of pony history, storytelling and moreover, scientific history. It often falls on me to correct them of... well, heh, they don't usually listen to me~They say I have a bad habit of pontification. I suppose you know if you've ever had to run with any brothers of your own? Oh! And this all seems so much for a teatime repast! Is this much customary in these parts of ponydom?" *Meanwhile!!* Sunny Flush remained blissfully unaware of any awkwardness to holding a superior officer in front of one of his recruits. But she did as she was asked and gingerly and softly placed Stargazer back down on the ground as if placing a stuffed pony doll on a shelf. For a bit, she chittered in a motherly voice to him to excitedly cover a lot she wanted to know in what turned out to apparently be very little time. "D'oh-Kay!" She chirruped as his hooves touched lightly back down. "You betta get youself some good rest then! Get youself someone to tuck you in at night an' maybe give you a glass o' warm milk! Maybe I can help you with that some night!! And we can talk about what even a Batty Horsey is! Like, if ya sleep at the day or suck the Juices of the Living like Big Brother Flit says! Flit talks ALOT about juices! Think it's one of his favorite words!" "An' you bet that sounds like Shorty!" The mare cheerfully agreed to Scarcity, skipping along behind lightly after the running forms of the two policeponies. "Tossin's what he do best! But he wouldn't REALLY wanna hurt nopony! He might break a few walls down or talk alot about crushing skulls but we haven't done that recently! He's justa big softie, really! A good hug will straighten anything out!" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ @Sekel The stream of lightning hit Shortstack full in the face like a high powered hose and he hadn't blinked. Singed a trifle, yes, but Shortstack had ran his head through some rather rudimentary broiler ovens before and tended to eat coal for a snack. He didn't really need to do that, but he liked the attention doing so publicly got him. The little stallion was rather fireproof and the bristle short, boarlike hair stood as one testament to that. More importantly though, he was grandstanding right now and couldn't let a little thing like a beam of energy to his face get in the way of hurling judgement. Many who prized argument over sanity or their well-being tended to do that, but perhaps not quite so specifically. "OY! Missy gots ah gun in 'er t'roat an' asks why sum'un gats tae come alon' an BREAK IT OFF?!" With that perfunctory verbal punch, the tiny red stallion lunges forward a short meter like a small billy goat and firmly lodges his head underneath the dragonpony mare's chest... and bucks her to his right into a wall of a nearby building. Roaring after her, audibly proud in justification of his own volume Shortstack fires back. "AH'M GONNA RIP YER HEART OUT AN' CLOG DANCE TA DAH RHYTHM!!!" *~And otherwise and otherplace~* "So long as you know of my dragon superiority." Kaltrop attempted to flex his wing muscles with somewhat unreliable results. "I hunted for my own food out in the wild. I do doubt you city-bound ponies would be capable of that. I would be good to keep around for that matter at least, since I have no idea how you forage for your own food. What, do you stalk the wild, roving herds of grass patches? ...Or... wh-whatever you mean by "Boyfriend" anyhow. If it means Protector, than i'm likely better at a fight than you there." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ @Catpone Cerberus Widdershins rolled his body around Cerberus as he fluttered about the catpony as he walked to his destination. Well, to remind you, we're going in a loop! I was saying you're the Weather Station! But don't worry about it! I'm a Thingywhopper, your a Feline-Equine, Little Cathorse. There's horses here that can shoot energy out of their head-bumps. There's too many ways to talk of things! The world is a silly place! So what's your lead on where Parasprites are these days?!!? The little cuties can't be that much trouble!
  13. Watches video of unexplained disappearances in American national parks.

     One guy seemingly walked out on an unfrozen lake. Called his bud, drunkenly guessed he was in a field... and fell in the water. Where he bobbed in place unnoticed for weeks despite dredging for his dead body.

     One dude got yanked upside down for change and instantly whisked away for miles shedding his boots.

     Another walked out where he physically couldn’t, and I guess, just decided to then & there evaporate out of both existence, his pants and shoes. Took his shirt, but left his toebones. Weird flex, but okay.

    Still fine with being a park ranger, out there alone. This does not trigger my paranoia in the least. “Oh hey, Shadow Creature done picked off Bob Lastinline like a Tater Chip by a Toddler. Nature is neat, yo.”

  14. All for Cream! And Cream for ALL!! Behold the power of AllCream! Train and grow stronger, my Creamy Children and perhaps one day... You can Cream like me! The Creamiest! What's THIS?!!?

      There's so little to go on though for Kirins. Even in the actual mythology they're heraldic symbols at best. :smolder:

       Like, I don't think there's any sign that the horns actually DO any magic. ...which is hilarious!

       How'd you do yours?!!? You got a character page or somesuch!??! Can I see, huh?! :kirin:

      Kevin Tang

      You mean kirins in general? I'm not sure if I searched deep enough about the kirins in general. But I surely know that in MLP, they're just unicorn-dragon hybrid with less magic power and a separate destructive side

      For my character.....I don't know, he's not really a well-thought character. He doesn't even have a name to begin with. :ButtercupLaugh: and from the mane alone, you can see how poor my mane designing skill is. So....I don't really have a reference sheet, nor a background story for him :pistachio:

      @Stone Cold Steve Tuna

      Well, of course its a good story. You’d be okay with murder if you just suddenly had one bummer day. That’s, like, pretty much A Killing Joke and that’s a story published for wide acclaim that i’m not at all bitter about.

      What’s scary here? A man made of Cream? If you ask me, Creaminess is pretty much essential to manliness!

      I don' know if its part of the required "setting up"... there's a free week's worth! And after that, like an automatic 4 dollars. 

       ... I see no issues with automatic pay withdrawls.

  19. I'm... finding it very hard to be happy.

     This job isn't working out. I'm too busy thinking about how its not working to try and find another job... I'm so worried it feels like i'm getting sick on a weekly basis. I don't.... like feeling trapped like this.

      Th-thanks, could really use the P- ... h-hugs!

  20. I am sorry. About general stuff and likely being on the ball about respondign to things. The stress of work... and where I'll be actually living in the future is getting to me once again. What I mean to say, @Blitz Boom, is that I have it written into Widdershins that he cannot, by dint of his species/fated destiny that he simply just cannot die. No matter what you do to him, he'll just pop right back in two to seven minutes later. There is no limit to this. This is a play into the fact that he's aware he's written by me, and therefore cannot die because that would mean ending potential storylines and getting more use out of his character. I have, in fact, have it mentally ascribed to him that not only has he had to rebuild his own body numerous times over and essentially be a wholesale different character but on at least one case before... someone has strung him up to the wall to harvest organs from his magically regenerating, unkillable body. I want Widders to be the worst case scenario of what happens when you have all the power. Because that's how I see Discord. Discord only became a villain because he outlived everything else and couldn't find value in anything like keeping on good terms with mortals or their morals. That he only turned good again because he wanted something as eternal as he was that he could keep forever... a friendship. But I digress, that's kinda my worry with @Icy Creation. That she has a homicidal side; would be hard to roleplay with her without waiting for it to become an overdramatic fight of subduing a corrupted friend. Still say the Two Forms aren't imperative to the character. And, likely, would be hard to bring up in RP. ... Oh, and, lol, Icy? You can just mention like I'm doing here. You know how? The At Symbol and then their name? I honestly find it fairly adorable how posters will just wholesale "Quote" the other post and nearly triple the length of their own post! ... Also, I REEEALLY wanna Arrpee with @Randimaxis too!!! ... and maybe get Vivid Loss to interact with Widdershins somehow. A sort of Positive & Negative side of Immortality thing. ...Sigh, but I am strapped for creativity and free time these days. I shouldn't push myself much more... Edit: ...and, uhm, Blitz Boom? You know how to quote an entire response section from the IC thread to here? It's been... like, a month I think since Pinkfire? And I kinda was hoping to have the multiple threads of my Hydra to go concurrent.
  21. So King Ghidorah isn’t technically a dragon, yes? Sure, its shaped like one & even has a lightning breath weapon... but canonically its an alien. Reptilian Traits alone do not quantify a dragon & we SURE cannot call Godzilla a dragon!

     …Ghidorah best Kaiju & True King of Monsters.

      At least he isn’t Hipster Alduin. The World Eater... but only if it’s trans fat free with no gluten and he can wash it down with a latte.

  22. You know, a lot try to be smarmy and brag about being the first one in on a fandom or franchise. It's good to see you're not only aware but proud to be precisely the Forty-Second Brony to have ever existed.

     As a fellow Hipster, I salute you!

  23. Wow, FENNAH on Youtube is really inspiring me. That's exactly the kind of animation I'd like to get into. Kinda... beautifully creepy, you know?

     I'd link some videos but, well, its numerous species of undoubtly Eldritch Horrors and I imagine there's kiddos here that don't find my Day Terrors as comforting as I do. Plus, Lucy Lacemaker's a right blue streak of a pub goer if ya catch me! Hee~

  24. I like to think of the new Shining Armor "Shocked" Ponimoticon as you reacting to said Status Update by immediately doing the corresponding scene in the show.

    Poster: "I had this yummy sandwich today."

     Me: *Jaw unhinges in widening gasp of horror as colors flash from my eyes and magical stone shards embed themselves in my face*

      I did not love her, it’s not true. It’s bullshit! I did not love her! I did not.

      Oh hi Maury.

      Don't make me link The Room videos here. It's not all that bad! Comparatively.

  25. I get up, first thing in the day on my two days off on a row in a week... check my computor...

     And two teenagers are calling me mentally deficient.

     I don't like the Internet much. I would prefer to have friendship.
     

     This is... gonna take me a bit to get over...

      It takes committed brains about nine months to conceive of water fully. This is how I reproduce, incidentally.

      It wasn't too excruciating - the qualification I've got only took two years to finish. Digging holes in the dirt doesn't take a PhD, it must be admitted. :P

      It's only a shame that my job isn't friend-extendable. I think you'd quite enjoy drilling in the middle of forests with birds singing and sun shining and grass greening and all the rest of it - it may be more physically taxing than a job in a pizza kitchen but the working environment would be a definite step up.

       

      At any rate though it seems that my online age obfuscation techniques have succeeded. Step 1: don't tell anyone your age. Step 2: pretend you're edgy and old. Simplicity wins again. :oh_golly:

      ...

       Admittedly, my jorb is primarily that of "Go get this." "Put these things here." So, not really all that difficult really than I can say if your job is basically pointing out where the machine that does the drilling goes down.

       It's just.... How many times in a day I have to literally spin on my heels, snap to attention, respond as quickly as possible to barked commands, even halfheard ones, because lest I give anything less than 100% I couldn't stand the judgement. Sigh... I turn around, bam, there's someone else new there whizzing past with some other errand they have to do. Machines in some undetectable corner beeping in my ear for 5-8 hours. It's... taking all my energy.

       I would... find it quite the bonus to at least work near a window so I can see the daylight changing. Have fresh air, possibly.

        ...wait, is "grass greening" a discernible action? I feel that would be frightening, to hear a plant grow in real time.

      Hey now, no need for aggressive stares. My job has only recently included supervising machines - the core of my job is hand-drilling those sweet sweet 5-meter holes. Shoving steel poles into the ground for 7 hours is more taxing on the muscles than a day working the pizza ovens, you surely can't deny.

      That said, the pizza job sounds orders of magnitude more psychologically exhausting. It's awfully hard to cope with the incessant stimulation and stress that any fast food job entails, and your fine self has a more sensitive mind than most. There are at least a dozen major mind-health horrors that I could name from your descriptions of your job alone - it's certainly not your fault that you've been feeling so horrible lately. It's especially unsettling to hear that you don't even work in view of daylight.

      You can't hear grass greening but you can smell it in the air. It's the opposite of what cut grass and salads smell like. :mustache:
