I can't stand laugh tracks either – I find most shows with them downright unwatchable. Some of those shows supposedly have live audiences, but the end result is usually just as annoying – and at least some of the laughter is still artificially enhanced, meaning that there's practically no difference. I can't see the point anyway – audience laughter in stage comedy is one thing, but in a show with more than one setting, filmed in a studio and edited, it doesn't feel natural at all. Laugh tracks in cartoons were a particularly terrible idea (and especially distracting when there's no dialogue, like in the Pink Panther cartoons). In addition, it seems that laugh tracks are becoming more and more intrusive to the point where it's louder than the dialogue itself. Also it's being added to completely unnecessary parts. The worst example must be this: When I saw this clip, I thought it was an edited one, intended to make fun of excessive use of laugh tracks. But apparently that's not the case. The first two occurrences of the laughter are completely unnecessary, the punchline is the only thing that could be considered humorous. Or maybe no one told me about Windows 7 being the funniest thing ever.

Happy birthday, my friend!
May your day be simply amazing!

Even better than I expected! Amazing work, my friend – Rarity's expression is priceless, and the rest of the drawing is awesome too (everything is better with kirin)! I don't think you have any reason to be disappointed in this one!

A lot of times, I just use the feed to check new status updates (since there are a lot of them almost every time I log in). But if there are fewer of them, or when I go through the other new content (mostly replies to earlier statuses), I start with the oldest one. Since I usually have more than one page of notifications and often get more while going through them (new status updates, reactions, replies...), I prefer to start from the earliest – otherwise it's harder to keep track of them with the new notifications pushing the old ones down the list... -

Thanks for the follow!

Happy birthday, my friend!
I hope you have an amazing one!

I'd pick Gabby – they're adorable together. Also, while I like the chemistry between Spike and Smolder, I've always seen them as just friends (or even siblings of a sort, though they're not actually related). -
Definitely. I remember in the early seasons they had special end themes in the second parts of season premieres and finales. I have no idea why they stopped doing that, but the series finale certainly deserved something more special. Maybe an instrumental version of "The Magic of Friendship Grows"! -

I don't see any reason why she wouldn't age like the others. The other unicorns (including the similarly powerful Starlight) aged just like the Earth ponies and pegasi – I doubt Twilight would be any different in that regard.

Amazing work, my friend! Honestly, when I first looked at the picture (before I had seen the text), I didn't even realize Nightmare Moon wasn't part of the original picture. Very well done!

What an adorable avatar, my friend!
I doubt there are many other OCs with so many cute pictures of them!

books Do you prefer digital, physical, or audio books?
Tacodidra replied to Muffinnz's topic in Media Discussion
I still find physical books the nicest to read, though digital books have their benefits too (especially the easy access to any book, at least theoretically). There's no need to zoom in and out, and turning pages with a mouse or keyboard doesn't feel as convenient to me... As for audiobooks, I've never got into them. I prefer reading the book at my own pace, whatever it is. -
As legendary as "The Smile Song" is, I must admit I'm a bit surprised your favorite MLP song isn't one performed by Rarity.
Do you have a favorite Rarity song? Mine would have to be "Rules of Rarity" – such a great melody, with best pony singing amazingly (as always)! 
As for my all-time favorite MLP song, I still haven't been able to decide...
Also, great choice for best episode, my friend!
-
Thanks a lot @Tacodidra!
Rules of Rarity is in my top five, and the margins between those five songs are razor-thin. As much, as I love Rarity, "The Smile Song", I must confess, just left such a profound impression on me after listening to it for the first time. That said, as with every opinion in the history of the universe, I am willing to reconsider.
As for my choice as far as my favorite episode is considered, yeah...even today its still not really THAT close for me. I LOVE "Twilght's Kingdom".

You're welcome, my friend!
It does capture Pinkie's adorable personality very well!
She was my favorite pony for such a long time, and all her songs were a big reason for that. 
The songs from the early seasons in general are truly something – and they're already a bit nostalgic for me, even if it's only been two years since I joined the fandom.
