  1. Damn, been a while since I last I visited here. Gone from from being in the midst of a global pandemic to the brink of WW3 lmao. Just thought I'd drop by to say hope you all are well. and still wishing you all the very best! :kirin:

  2. Woah, this place has definitely changed since I was last here! Damn, time really flies. So... yeah, just thought I'd stop by for a bit, however I really don't see myself coming back in the future (you may have noticed already :P). But yeah, haven't even really thought about the show much since late 2019, yet I heard through the grapevine that there's supposedly now a whole new gen? Sorry, been out of the loop for ages. :Thorax:

    Got a bit of a confession to make, read it only if you like, it's something that's long overdue to be explained.

    Spoiler

    To tell you the truth, the time when I was most active here (mostly aged 17 -18) was a very unstable part of my life, whenever I wasn't working or studying I was out partying and developed a pretty bad drink and drug habit that screwed things up pretty bad. I found refuge here, a place where nobody knew who I was and I was able to partake in a community that I had long been fascinated by, where we all shared a common interest. But, all things must come to an end. I progressively took steps in improving myself, and fighting these demons. Nowadays, I rarely drink, haven't touched any illegal substances in 2 years, and I am much more career-focused than ever before. This place, to me, serves as a relic that reminds me of the stupid kid I was years ago and the mistakes I made. It is for these reasons that I'm putting everything behind me, moving onwards and keeping on the straight and narrow. I have in the past alluded to my issues with Class A drugs with very few forum members over Discord... you probably know who you are lol, and I'm totally embarrassed over the whole affair to this day.     

    Yeah, just wanted to get that off my chest so I didn't mysteriously vanish without an explanation again. God knows I've done plenty of that. :ButtercupLaugh: Besides, I kinda owe you guys an explanation. Wishing you all the best in the near future, sayonara lads.

      Good luck out there @Prometheus! If ever you do feel you want to make a return you know that this community will always be here, in the meantime I hope your career dreams come true and you keep improving your life :eager:

  3. Hey dudes, long time no see! :ButtercupLaugh:

    Thought I'd just swing by to wish you guys Happy Holidays, and I hope that 2021 will be a better year than the complete shitshow we've had this year for all of you guys. Due to my frequent inactivity, I honestly have no idea if this forum is even populated anymore, but in any case, for those of you who are sticking around I wish you all the best in the new year! :mlp_smug:

      I've been fine, thanks! :kindness: I haven't been as active as I was once (apart from the last couple of days), but I don't think I'll ever leave entirely. :raritycutehat:I still try to visit the forums on most days.

  4. Big day coming up for you Americans out there. I just want to say that whichever way your election goes, I wish you guys all the best over there, and that the important thing is that you stood up for your beliefs.

    Godspeed Yanks!

      yeah, hopefully either way America stay away from the path we went on as a country and go full retard politically haha

      "americans" "america" Ugh. Always being lumped in the mass of shit. It is like the states don't even exist to anyone anymore.

      This whole thing is causing me immense anxiety. There's a very specific way this needs to go. If not, then I will be burning a flag or two tonight.

      I disliked what @Kyoshi said about usa, but is your opinion,
      But I will say I've considered burning the occupation flag for my country too

  5. I'm currently in the process of getting a half-sleeve on my left arm, only got a few tats done so far, so still a distance to go before it's fully finished.

  8. 4:30 AM and can't get to sleep, might as well check in on how things are going over here. :P

    Been having some second thoughts recently about my career, I'm torn on whether or not I should pursue something I actually enjoy or just stick to my current career path in STEM. Tuition fees are dirt cheap in my country, so financing shouldn't be a problem. I know they always say that there's worldwide demand for STEM graduates (especially since I really want to emigrate to North America), but the thought of doing it my entire life just sounds nightmarish and monotonous. If anyone has some advice on this I'd be really grateful. :adorkable:  

    Ok, now that's out of the way, how are things going for you guys? :mlp_smug:

      Do you what you love. Don't do something just because it seems like the easier route, and if it's already sounding nightmarish to you now, then chances are your probably not going to like your STEM career once you actually get one. Don't waste your time or money doing something that doesn't interest you, you'll end up regretting it in the long run :fluttershy:

    2. Prometheus

      Prometheus

      @King of Canterlot Thanks man. Yeah, you've got a point there, it does seem like doing something I'd enjoy would be the better option in the long run. I'm just worried about the future is all, but I guess I'm just overthinking it, eh? :ButtercupLaugh:Still, much appreciated dude!

  9. There are rumours that we might be getting PC ports of Metal Gear Solid 1 & 2.

    If we do get them then holy shit, I will be so happy. And who knows, maybe one day we'll get a working port of MGS4. :wub:
     

    Also, sorry I haven't been as active as I said I would, work's been keeping me busy recently. Hope all is well with you guys. :mlp_smug:

      Same lol, but I also have a Switch and I'd want to play them everywhere lol(3DS only has MGS3 and Vita doesn't cut it :p)

      @Megas Yeah man, too true. Let's hope we do get them some day. :)

      @Deae Rising Shine~ You're lucky, I had the HD collection on PS3, but my PS3 died on me about a year ago. :laugh:

      ...i didnt touched my ps3 for over a year, all i know it might not even work anymore

  10. Wow, by complete coincidence, I somehow stumbled on the very video that introduced me to FIM when I was 10/11 years old, before I had any idea what the show even was. Not gonna lie, I thought Rainbow Dash was a dude back then, not even joking. :Thorax:

    https://youtu.be/egrlzkKa6O8

    Was a huge fan of Elder Scrolls at the time and was excited as hell for Skyrim coming out, and I remember finding this video of clips from the show synced to the audio from the Skyrim teaser trailer, thought it was the coolest shit ever... only to find out that it was My Little Pony of all things. :yeahno:

    Spooky how it re-emerged out of nowhere. :dash: 

     

    EDIT: Must be a problem with embedding YouTube videos here, sorry about that. :worry:

      Cool!
      Honestly I thought the same lol

  11. Jailed for robbing the biggest bank in France using only a ballpoint pen.
  12. You know what? Imma try to come back here more often. Over the past year or so I've barely been visiting, only really showing up roughly once a month and not much else. But this place is still going strong, still some good folk sticking around, so I might as well keep at it. B)

    How's it going for you guys anyway? Hope you're all still keeping safe out there. 👍

      I've been doing good, but fall allergies have been kicking my butt lately in the mornings with a runny nose :scoots:

      Glad to see you're all doing well! Here's hoping it's a steady ride the rest of the year. :mlp_smile:

  13. Oh man, must've been 4 years ago, I think? It was in the middle of Winter, luckily it was held indoors in a huge exhibition center. Pretty sure my phone fell out of my pocket when I was on a ride that had me suspended 60 feet in the air... upside down. Last time you went hiking?
  14. A Few Good Men (1992) A lot better than I was expecting, great acting and solid writing. 7/10
  15. As a former pothead myself, I do think cannabis should be legalised for recreational and medicinal use, but under similar stipulations as alcohol and tobacco, such as imposing age restrictions as well as conditions when it comes to driving or operating heavy machinery.
  16. Hey, MLP Forums... ya doin' alright?

      I'm fine, thanks! :coco: I hope you are too, my friend! :yay:

  17. Oh man, I can't stand having long hair. My hair is naturally very thick and always sticks out if it gets too long, so I keep my hair pretty short, getting a haircut is always so satisfying because of it.
  18. I used to drink milk pretty regularly in protein shakes, nowadays I just have it in coffee or cereal, gotta get that calcium.
  19. Yeah, I met my ex on Tinder. Not too into Tinder nowadays, since it's mostly just a place for hookups now instead of dating. Heard Bumble is supposed to be pretty good though.
