Bahaha I love it!

So yeah, I'm sure you guys have discussed it already (but I'm too lazy to check), but how about Rarity and Sweetie Belle's parents? And I was under the impression that Sweetie Belle lived at Rarity's all the time, but I suppose that's not the case. Hmm.

It's been a post-heavy day, Beans. It's forgivable.

We did talk about it. Algernon (if you haven't read his posts, let me say that you'll love him. A brony from when I first started watching) and I were confused about it, but I think Sweetie Belle unpacking her stuff was a dead giveaway.
 
I tend to think that the writer and Faust had Rarity and Sweetie Belle living together originally, but changed it to make room for more storylines. But I'm hoping that this was always the situation in the universe. If that's the case, then I'm really hopeful about even greater levels of depth for the show, because it probably means that there are a lot of relationships to be explored and developed. It might even get to the point of rivaling more "mature" cartoons in terms if depth without the "mature" content.

^story of my life. Overbearing parents, never-ending sadness. I need hugs and ponies. Lots of them.

Feels bad, man. Here are some cupcakes that I stole from the intern- I mean… baked.

If that's not enough to cheer you up, I'm sure Berry and Colgate know what you need.

An old thread that was locked but is now open again. It's an old KYM joke.

Is there a template with a pre-transparent-backgrounded-and-ready-to-be-shopped-Cheeto buried in there somewhere, or am I going to have to break out my surgical instruments?

I'd like very much to hop on this bandwagon.

EDIT: Nevermind, I got this on lockdown.

That’s why I told it to badistrip

Close.
badsitrep. But I guess we knew who you were talking about. Still, badsitrep's been posting on here forever. If it helps to remember it, then badsitrep is short for BAD SITuational REPort (or so he said in the Username thread.)

Also, to whomever was talking about Rick Astley, you reference Rick Astley for lulz. Same goes for Friday. A few other songs too. Otherwise…Connor has you pegged.

Also, if you haven't seen this Derpy animated comic, then I think you should.

I keep thinking that is an add on to Bubbles, where Derpy grew up in the Everfree somehow and then followed bubbles to Ponyville…

He caught me with my defenses down I have no idea. It was unexpected. But the thing is all of us are victims of it. I bet alot of you have your retarded moments one time to another.

Here but don't tell anyone about where you got it.

I'll definitely vouch for the fact that the show is getting even more mature, from what I heard episode nine is about Rarity's difficulty balancing her social and professional lives. In essence a story about the struggles of self employment. But then episode seven is about Rainbow Dash trying to find the right pet, so maybe it's got more to do with the individual writers.

For instance, today's episode was written by Cindy Morrow of Owl's Well that Ends Well and Show Stoppers "fame". So if you where wondering why some episodes seem cornier then others I'm pretty sure it's down to the writer's individual style.

In fact I'm surprised the writer's aren't common names around the brony community, they're effectively what determines whether an episode is good, great or meh.

All of my posts are those moments. I just hide them in dense vocabulary, complex syntax, and walls of text. I try to make corrections or explanations of logic to help other prevent silly mistakes (that aren't easily overlooked,) and because that's what I like to do. Don't sweat it too much.

According to EqD, that's exactly what it is. It was a short fanfiction: one of the few that I've read, so I'll need to reread it to get the full effect.
 
 
…Right after the Arkansas/South Carolina and LSU/Alabama games.

Ok I do not know how you will disarm a wall that does not have offensive capabilities but yeah looks like shes about to ram it with cuteness.

Equestra Daily is considering starting an eMagazine, I cannot express the level of want I'm exuding at this moment.

Fund it! I do wonder how that will turn out though. I think the blogger format is working well, and I'm not immediately sure how an eMagazine would help (aside from constantly updating each hour.)

…Maybe that's enough reason in itself. Cereal, Phoe, and Seth could stand some free time, I'm sure.

Vs.

I'll have to get back to you on that one…

I think I'm gonna hit the hay for tonight.
I've had enough of doing business coursework in the early hours of Sunday whilst listening to rap music and looking at pictures of ponies.
what has my life come to?

anyway, don't do anything I wouldn't do!

God damnit, it took over half an hour with paint, but I finally did it too:

And EqD an eMagazine?

Paint?

Oh no no no! That simply won't do. Grab GIMP or Paint.net! They are free and amazing alternatives to Photoshop! Nopony should perform image manipulation with Paint.

@Ideo below me (to avoid making a separate post)

I like how confident you are now, for sure. Its a pleasant change.
