I'm a very analytical person.

 

 

 

Now that I'm thinking about it more, I remember the main reason I disliked the episode...

These! What do they even mean!? I don't like the look or feel of them at all!

 

 

 

Didn't it take a while to get used to Twilight's wings?

 

I just want to see the next episode with them in it is all I want right now.

This is very different from that. A cutie mark controls a pony's entire destiny and their path in life! Cutie marks are serious business, Punicpunch! But from just looking at those cutie marks, it's very difficult to understand exactly what they're supposed to stand for.

 

As do I, In much the same way that people can't help but look at horrible, grisly car wrecks.

 

 

 

 

I just mean, what's wrong with them having regular cutie marks, like these:

 

Or even better, these:

I guess you guys are talking about the new episode. I'll put my thing in.

 

I thought the episode was alright, I mean it was weird that they got their cutie marks and alll but meh, at least they have story now and stuff. The episode was well done and Diamond Tiara got redeemed and all. But yeah. That's my take though.

I never saw the episode, but from what I've heard, I kinda get the idea. It kinda contradicts the mindset of irresolvability, but given enough time, some things just get resolved. Like that one argument with that one person you swore you'd forget and one day he apologises to you, after years of suppression.

 

Speaking of resolution, MY MONITORS ARE TOO SMALL!!!

Twilight becoming a princess was fulfilling her cutie mark.

 

 

The fact that they don't have regular cutie marks is what makes it a big deal.

They didn't just find their place, their place is special.

First of all, Twilight becoming a princess was fulfilling her cutie mark.

 

Second of all, the fact that they don't have regular cutie marks is what makes it a big deal.

They didn't just find their place, their place is special.

 

Oh really? Do you have any evidence to back that up?

 

 

Before I refute that, allow me to ask you a question. What revelation caused them to gain their cutie marks in the first place?

...Yes, tons.
Watch the scene where she is princess-ififed, the magic comes from here cutie mark.

Them realizing that all they want to do is be with each other.

The CMC realized that they were looking too hard for their own cutie marks and that they should help other ponies find theirs instead. By casting aside their own wants to help others, they immediately received what they were seeking in the first place.

Like how Vegeta became a Super Saiyan.

 

Except with more selflessness and less rage.

That's not how she became a princess at all!

 

This is how it happened:

 

 

 

 

That's not how it happened at all...   They decided they wanted to help others discover their true talents instead of focusing on their own. AI had it exactly right. Anyway, my point is that looking at other cutie marks it's more or less evident what they represent. But I just don't see how those new cutie marks represent the ideal of helping others at all.

Umm, actually I thought their marks were supposed to mean that they realized how they helped so many others in their quest for their own that helping others find their special talent is the cmc's talent? I'm pretty sure that's what they said.

What ever, I'm an inarticulate mess at the moment.

Are you okay?

Are you okay?

Had a long weekend, a bit worn out.

 

Long as in, I did a lot of fun, tiresome things.

[Sir Punicpunch 1,688]

Oh? What did you do?

I played Dungeons & Dragons with my tangible friends and I visited Boston.

You visited Boston!? What did you get to see while you were there?

[Sir Punicpunch 1,688]

Everything you'd expect someone to see in Boston.

 

Not an exaggeration, too much stuff to list.

Oh... Okay. I've never been to Boston, so I don't know what it's like.

[Sir Punicpunch 1,688]

Oh... Okay. I've never been to Boston, so I don't know what it's like.

I'll try to list a few things, if you don't know what they are, I'll explain it.

 

• Bunker Hill Monument
• Boston State House
• Lexington & Concord
• USS Constitution (While in repair!)
• Paul Revere Mall
• Paul Revere's Grave
• John Hancock's Grave
• Much More-

So, I finally gave in and bought me one of them there gaming mice since I needed a new mouse anyhow. Nothing fancy, just a budget one, but still one nonetheless.

 

 

I mean, even though I used to bag on them, I kinda like this one a bit. >w>

 

Not sure if it's actually worth anything, but for a replacement mouse and only spending 25 total (13 on the mouse and two day shipping), I can't really complain.

I thought about getting a gaming monitor. That alone costs $400-$700. Replacing the other two monitors could cost anywhere from $250-$500 more.

 

I once had a gaming mouse. It broke.

 

I'm thinking about upgrading my graphics card to a GTX 970. That's a bit more manageable at about ~$320.

 

I've already replaced the stock cooler with something bigger and thermodynamically cooler. That cost about ~$40.

 

I've rearranged and replaced many a fan in my machine and more have started to break down.

 

I thought about getting a mechanical keyboard. Still thinking about going forward with that.

 

I've never had a hard drive larger than 150GB in my computer.

 

My current monitors right now cost about $150 in total, all three of them, but the total viewing space is still insufficient. My 6-speaker sound system had no cost to it at all (5.1 surround sound). My humongo work desk cost $20, plus cost of materials to repair it. It's physically bigger than my bed.

 

I went from using a K120 Logitech keyboard for 2 and a half years to replacing it with an identical keyboard for a fraction of the $12 it originally cost for the first one.

 

Guess the resolution of my current monitor setup.

Do it.

 

Do all of it.

 

And I couldnt do that, I have no clue on anything tech wise, sadly. :/

 

I'm seriously considering to go ahead and start me a gaming pc fund along with fixing my room up for it. I really need to.

Yeah, I heard about most of those in US history. Although... Pall Revere has a mall named after him?
