I couldn't even be damned to read the whole thing, but if some guy genuinely enjoys writing speculative theses about ponies, well, it's not hurting anything (except maybe his productivity), so more power to him I suppose.

When Celestia says, "My faithful student" she's actually referring to Grilox, Twilight just happens to be in the general direction Celestia is facing.

That actually looks really neat, I gotta say.

Out of curiosity, do you refer to the drawers by name? Like, "hey, have you seen my stapler?" "I'm not sure, have you checked Pinkie?"

The new front page article comparing MLP to Ultima: Quest for the Avatar intrigues me because I've actually wondered if the most "spirit of the show" game adaptation of MLP:FIM would be to have a similar game, where the quest was to discover and demonstrate the elements while making friends.

In the sense that it helps me remember "hmmmm where did I put that t-shirt; oh yeah's it's in the Rarity drawer", yes.

Also, my wife and I rotate which drawers are on our side (mine is the right) based on which ponies are our current favorites at the moment.

I hope you sort which clothes go in which drawer by pony. Rarity would obviously be your fancy get ups.

What happens if you both have the same favorite pony (or ponies)?

Swap the AJ and Twilight drawer, and stick with the Right side forever. All the best. :vogue:

Twilight couldn't see the stranger very well in the dim light of the library, but her eye caught the hint of an ethereal wave of a magical mane.

The main reason I gave MLP:FiM a second look was because the opening scene of the first episode, that tells a creation myth in a different art style from the rest of the show, strongly reminded me of the opening of the animated version of Watership Down. #truestory

I know Hasbro doesn't license it's characters and I haven't played my copy of Little Big Planet 2 for while, but I've wanted FiM themed Sack People since Feburary 2011.

Also - fine you guys, I'm getting the Watership Down audiobook so I can finally see what the fuss is about. 15 hours, 2010, so I guess this book definitely has a few fans.

And - I wrote one of those emoticon posts parodying the twilight post above, but erased it because I think it'd piss a few of you off :gotcha:

I looked through that for a bit, making a point of removing my goon goggles. I got through about 5 pages before I got too bummed to keep it up, and now I can't remember what was bothering me about it. Goons being jerks? Feeling bad for a few of the pictured bronies?

It's a Fisker Karma. A hybrid car that's more style than substance and gets less per gallon than you think. Hum dee dum.
There's a dealership in a strip mall right by me next to a fairly nice Pho restaurant. It looks like a BMW Z8 if you squint.

I passed a Rolls Royce :ghost:

I know what a Karma is, I meant more about the specific car- do you know the person who bought it, do you think you'll be able to get a closer look at it, what color is it, etc.
It's a really pretty car, except for the front end.

oh, no. No idea who's is it. It's in giant underground parking garage.
Yes. I tripped over it while I was writing the Watership Down post above.
It's a kind of a copper red.
