mega thread What are you thinking?

[Night Sky 521]

I am thinking that my video for Lyra and Bon Bon day has come together exactly the way it was meant to.

I made every effort to be conscientious about how I set out to make this project.

I deliberately did not bite off more than I could chew.

But I also took care to put some effort into each and every element.

It all came together better and faster than I would have thought.

But, one aspect I had taken for granted from the beginning eventually revealed itself to just be not quite right.

So, I had to replace it.

And, right there, very much NOT because of any deliberate action on my part, here on a computer hard drive, just by chance, the exact missing puzzle piece I needed presented itself.

My video is either good, or it isn't.

But even if it isn't...THIS is how it had to be, and it was because of spontaneity, dare I say it here? A bit of magic!

I couldn't be happier, it wasn't my ego that finished this project and placed the final touch on it.

It will be appearing as a video on YouTube as the first project of a new channel I am starting, focusing on MLP!

I hope every pony will join me on the 5th of July, so we can wish Lyra and Bon Bon another happy year together!

About how in Milo Murphy’s Law (which shares a universe with Phineas and Ferb) there’s a movie theater for pets. That’s both adorable and hilarious.

Well how's that for a massive coincidence.

Wore a pony shirt for the first time in like a year and at the train station someone approached and said hi because they were also wearing a Rainbow Dash shirt (and Rarity necklace), asked if we'd been to any conventions which we hadn't, turns out there one in a nearby city in Spring. That was a nice interaction, though.

I'm thinking that I think, therefore I am (this my have been done before, but had to try incase it wasn't. And I was the first smart ass to try).

I'm really glad my injured pinky finger isn't on my fretting hand, that would've been bad.

Neighbour has just played himself by admitting to taking our lamp package from the porch "on our behalf" (no one asked), in front of CCTV.

An interesting development.

MMMMM we need to examine our cards and play our strongest suit without losing this bouquet he has thrown us. He has metaphorically signed his death warrant.

If "The Summer Sun Celebration" has been renamed "The Festival of the Two Sisters", why wasn't "Nightmare Night" changed, too?

My thought would be this:

Even though the Ponies understood that Princess Luna had renounced Nightmare Moon's desire for total domination, once a year, one night only, the ponies still wanted to be scared, as we see in the episode.

Trusting that she was in control of herself, the ponies wanted her to scare them.

I personally feel it really is that simple. 

Perhaps Luna herself may have come to enjoy granting that wish eventually.

Ponies, despite being so far ahead of us in some regards are still in the material creation...thus even they enjoy a good fright now and then.

Even by the time of Gen 5...Princess Pipp Petals seemed to come alive on Nightmare Night and read ghost stories, and actively charged into a building she considered haunted.

By then, the Equestrians probably did not remember the origin or true significance of the holiday, but the love of a fright and of pageantry persisted. 

...as it always shall.

Really? I wear this pair of socks once and already has a hole in them?

If it was confirmed in FIM episodes that ponies eat sandwiches and eggs, how come MLP artists haven't thought of making drawings of ponies eating egg sandwiches until fairly recently?

I'm thinking about who the first person to invent inventing was.

[Raskolnikov 448]

Delivery text: "it was left on the porch"

CCTV: "it was him who took it"

The neighbour HIMSELF in a note: "yeah it was me who took it"

???????

Dude you already have two noise complaints from two different flats, a council that is aware you are committing illegal activities of some kind AND which is aware of your tendencies to be aggressive... are you trying to fuck yourself over omfg there is just no higher activity going on between this guy's ears. I cannot believe how he just did that not thinking it's extremely incriminating there is multiple proof of him committing theft now.

I'm thinking that emotions are expensive and tiresome. But they worth it... probably

Wrong. Emotions are an archaic ploy to distract from: career.

That's called a hangover from partying too hard.

(Controversial opinion) Some games should just not have English dubs, I think. I cringe so hard when the Witcher is such a blatantly Polish game for example, then the voice acting sounds like a English village in a generic medieval fantasy game? Wot? Boring. It breaks my immersion so hard, I have been playing The Witcher in Polish with subs and it's an absolute delight. Foreign languages shouldn't be some spooky thing people shy away from but just another part of the game.

Saying this cos I was shown a scene from Metro: Last Light and the "Hollywood" Russian accents in the English dub sounded so over the top...

Oh yeah, you play Metro in Russian or not at all as far as I'm concerned.

Yeah, I didn't even realise the joke, I just thought it was joking about being drowned in notifications out of nowhere /derp
