About

I’m one of KYM’s long-time users. I started back in early ’09, and stuck around because I like learning about the origin of my favorite jokes spread through internet culture.

EDM general

I was referring to Jungle, specifically. Most of the Jungle I have heard was more of the chill and relaxed variety. Ah, that makes more sense. I have heard stuff from each end of the spectrum when it comes to jungle. That’s really interesting. I guess that just goes to show where our personal tastes and brain functions start to differ. The way my brain works is that relaxation requires consistent rhythm, pattern (patterns are a must) and tones of euphoria. From the sound of things, you go for complexity...

Last I checked: this was the case. Jungle came first and DnB followed directly in its footsteps. Except DnB branched outward from Jungle’s chill and relaxed nature and attempted other styles and moods; giving us neurofunk, trancestep and all those sub-genre’s (which are really just different styles of DnB)…to the best of my knowledge…I could be wrong. Chill and relaxed? Weird. The little bit of DnB I’ve listened to was more intense. I guess that might just be because I started off on breakcore, so I...

EDM general

There is a good chance I may have been listening to some Breakbeat recently. Except I didn’t realize it because I mistook it for DnB. Seriously, we have so many sub-genre’s that overlap so much that it makes it hard to tell if you are listening to one genre or another. Yeah, I think DnB has roots firmly in Jungle music as well, so that could be why. There’s probably a lot of music that has heavy use of both DnB AND breakcore elements. The “Chocolate Wheelchair” album from Venetian Snares has a lot of DnB...

It's confession time!

I have a fear of christian imagery due to negative experiences when I was young. I was raised christian, but never believed in it. I went to a fire-and-brimstone sermon and was too scared to question my “beliefs” until I was about 17. I hated myself because those doubts would always come crawling into the back of my mind, and I thought I was a terrible person because of it. I almost never talked to anyone because I didn’t think I was worth talking to. I finally overcame that somehow, but still to this...

EDM general

Just curious, but does anybody else listen to breakcore music? It’s electronic music classified by its heavy use of drum breaks and samples played at a high tempo. You might be into it if you like jungle or breakbeat. I think it’s a subgenre of one of those, but I’m not too familiar with them as a whole so I can’t say for sure. Anyway, since it’s mainly defined by high tempo percussion and sampling, it’s a pretty open-ended subset of music. So there’s a lot of variety to be found in it. Venetian Snares...

KYM Pony General VI: Return of the Poni

WARNING: DO NOT WATCH IF YOU ARE A RARITY FAN So, I just found this video and thought I’d share it with you guys. It’s so funny, I peed a little. Granted, I had to pee really bad, so this might just be sorta funny. Whatever. Here it is: I’m gonna go change my pants. Rarity is still awesome.

Gravity Falls General

I doubt as many people will hate it, as Sparty was saying, due to the subject matter. But some people will hate it for no reason at all. Some people just hate everything. Sucks to be them. LOOK AT ALL THIS FUN WE WILL BE HAVING WITHOUT YOU, HATERS!

KYM Pony General VI: Return of the Poni

@best pony ranking list Personally, I think Sethisto has the best approach to best pony. They’re all equally awesome (but Trixie is equally awesome by a larger margin) and it’s just better to go with a weekly pony. No TwiDash love from the bronies here? I now declare TwiDash as this week’s best pony. And I love how most respondents said they were indifferent to shipping and then proceeded to list their favorite ships. Indifferent meaning, I don’t like it enough to seek it out, draw art for it, etc. Just...

Gravity Falls General

So, I just watched the first episode. This… show… is… AWESOME. From the second I first saw it in a gif someone posted a while back, I could already tell I was going to love it. The animation is fantastic! I’m pleased to see that the writing and humor matches up. Also, didn’t take long to figure out who the best character was in this show. Anyway, loading up episodes two and three right now. Gonna watch ‘em both when my brother gets home. Can’t wait. MFW>

KYM Pony General VI: Return of the Poni

Some people just take enjoyment out of observing other people pair up. There is a laundry list of reasons why, but I think slightly wishing to be in a relationship yourself is a large factor. Yup. You figured it out. Twilight is like my Mary Sue and Trixie is my waifu. Now if you’ll excuse me, I’m very busy taking absolutely no part in a meaningful relationship and it requires my full attention. Also, Fluttershy x Bloomberg is OTP. @Fighting is Magic I wonder what the input for Rarity’s diagonal-flying...

Games you loved as a kid

I used to play Star Fox all the time. The old one. The REAL old one, where the enemies are all triangles. But it was the first Nintendo game to feature 3-D movement, which was a big deal back then. I was all like, “I’M FLYING TOWARDS THE OTHER TRIANGLES, HOLY SHIT! Maybe someday, Mario will even move forward instead of just left and right.” But I wish this franchise would get another hit like Star Fox 64. It’s recent installments have been less than stellar, and we sparsely see a new one. :C

KYM Pony General VI: Return of the Poni

I once saw Octavia accept Spitfire’s “Something Special for Somepony Special” in Team Fortress. True Story. I saw that, too. The only other one I don’t like is the Twixie ship, mainly because I think Trixie is a horrible character (no offense again). Pixelkitties comics alone makes me like that ship. ZOOM. ENHANCE. Twixie is the best ship imo because it’s spawned the funniest comics. I’m pretty neutral on shipping outside of funny stuff. I am interested in discussing “friendshipping,” though. I like to...

Your Favorite Mario Character.

Not enough Bowser in this thread. I am disappoint. How many other Mario characters can play a double-neck guitar while surfing? Bowser is a Grade-A pimp. WHY DOES HE NOT HAVE HIS OWN GAME YET? I’m gonna post some Mario comics now.

The Brony Doctrine

In my opinion, when someone is stating their opinion in a jerkish way, it’s better to reply than to vote. I definitely agree with this. Still, Adam had at least three replies in this thread before he even started getting downvotes. And as I stated prior, this isn’t the first thread that he’s stated these ill-reasoned viewpoints, so he should already know better. I’ve seen his posts in other threads, and I know he can be productive contributor to a thread, so it’s distressing to see that he would so...

The Brony Doctrine

Perfect post, right here. Grazie. If I may return the compliment, People will fap to anything, but they wouldn’t put their dick anywhere near it. I LOL’d quite heartily. Funniest thing I’ve read in a while. A brony either says: “needs moar ponies” or “OMG THIS SHOW IZ DUH WURZT!!!11” ^ and that usually happens with something NOT pony-related. It ruins the fun. Yes this is annoying. As a brony, I find it irritating that some people find it necessary to bring ponies into every conversation, regardless of...
