Did they ever shoot down that internet bill yet? I thought they were supposed to see if it'd pass yesterday, but I haven't heard anything about it.

I think it was shot down 54-42 or something.

Blargh.
In case you guys haven't noticed, I've been gone for a couple days. I won't be able to use the computer until tomorrow at the earliest, so I'm currently on my PS3's s**tty browser again. I won't be talking for today, so I just thought I'd drop in.
On another note…

Some of my best "friends", who I trust, let just about my whole class know I'm a brony. Now everyone relentlessly insults me over it.
Even one of them who watches the show with me.

Can't say I'm entirely to surprised, that thing just screamed unconstitutional, though I still see that KYM has the "Stop Censorship" deal there for some reason.

ಠ_ಠ Some friends they are, particularly that one that watches the show with you.

I'm surprised it was beaten by such a margin though, you'd think more would vote against it but that shows the contempt for the constitution these days.

As for your friends, that's just harsh man.

All I can give you is Tyrion Lannister's advice:

Ignore the para-sprites.. Be true to yourself.. Seeing as you are still in school being picked on and teased seem like a big deal to you right now.. But trust me.. In 10 years those people won't matter. When you get out of school, it is easy to distance yourself from people like your classmates.

It's also good to learn who your true friends are. You might find out you don't have any. That's ok too. Just don't settle for hanging around people who will backstab you in the future.

People like that are the main reason why I'm a cynical ass.

These are the same people who jizz themselves over MW3 and hate on a show without even giving it a shot. To be honest, I'm probably better off without the dicks.

Sad to say, but yes, more then likely you are.

Sadly pretty much, but all we can hope is that it keeps getting shot down should they continuously and stupidly keep trying to keep at it.

If that ever does pass, then you know that shit will go down, and not the good kind either.

…What in the Hell?
I remember reading about this somewhere (that Nightmare Moon was an Omnicidal Maniac who wanted to destroy crops and stuff because of eternal night), but I couldn't find it on Faust's deviantART. But, here it is, about a month later!
Deja vu, maybe? I've had it before…
Either way, VERBOSE? YOU OWE ME THREE COOKIES.

And MLP was originally meant for little girls?? 0.0 Scientists! Find an explanation!

Heh, the original ones probably, but the FiM one, I kinda doubt it since Faust said she created it for kids and their parents to enjoy.

Does anyone have a website link talking about the vote.. I need conformation that it got voted down. I was unsure what the bill was about. I just saw this video http://vimeo.com/31100268 That scares me!

I see what you mean pony. If it does pass. Anonymous will become more hostile and most likely more serious, and more underground. The population of hackers will increase most likely just to bring the fun of the internet back. Who knows it might trigger something post apocalyptic. All because of alot of the world's porn will be censored. It will be like them banning beer. You know how that went in the U.S.
If we don't have our internetz. Anonymous will fuck a lot of the gov's shit up.
I will be behind them also because I want my ponies.

For once I agree. Anon will have my full support.

ಠ_ಠ I don't think it's much about the porn as it is about companies saying that sites are improperly using their content, and Hell, even if a site was using content properly, companies could still say that they're not and have that site taken off.

Hell, YouTube would be in big BIG trouble due to all the Let's Plays and other videos on it.

So SOPA is very controversial I'm guessing.

That was totally a dick move, however my brother and me are pretty good friends and were always trolling each other like it's going out of style. It's like part of being a bro (in some cases) is being an asshole every once and awhile to test the strength of your friendship. That may sound dumb and counter productive as all hell and obviously the ideal friend wouldn't do shit like that at all, but I really think it's just dudes being dudes.

I'm not saying you shouldn't be pissed though.

Well is there anything we can do to make sure it doesn't happen? Holy Horseapples! Guys….I think one of my confessions did get published.

I remember submitting something similar to this and I don't think anypony else had a confession like this.

If I'm not mistaken, after a bill passes or such, doesn't the president still have to approve it? Cause if so, it'll still get shot down cause I heard that Obama doesn't support it either.

But I don't see anything like that passing ever, it just screams unconstitutional.

It's like taking away America's beer, and we all know how that turned out….

ಠ_ಠ that was all alcohol, not just beer, and to be honest, I'm not really a big fan of excessive drinking either since some people are to stupid enough to realize that they shouldn't be behind the wheel of a vehicle when they're completely smashed.

Any pony here know any good pony music. I already know about Mic and Lulz, but any other good ones I should know about.
I prefer actual original songs, and not just remixes of pony songs.
I like music with lyrics and not just orchestral.

 
 

You just described the songs I don't like. Put simply, I like what Daniel Ingram has done and I like the voices of the singers/voice actresses in the show. I don't usually like many amateur artists (Pony or not), mostly because, well, they're amateurs and they tend to perform like it. Sure, there are some really good ones out there, but…randomly sifting through many of them, I don't find many I like.

I don't think I can offer much consolation. But in my own experience, people you are friends with/you have to deal with won't care as much as you get older. Given that you seem to be at least a fairly smart person, the friends you choose probably won't care as long as you are still (CitationNeeded), and people who aren't your friends probably won't care, because you aren't their friends.

If this is high school you're talking about, then I can imagine it'll be a pain at least for a while, if not longer. Sorry in advance. I've seen some kids get picked on when I was in high school. I did my share of it myself, when I was younger. But I figure it'll work out.

People like that are the main reason why I’m a cynical ass.

Realizing there are people in the world like that made me one too. I can't blame you. We humans are flawed creatures.

Either way, VERBOSE? YOU OWE ME THREE COOKIES.

That, I do. I'm too lazy to drive 5-10 hours to give them to you. I'll just set your posts on autokrama for a bit.
 
 
Also, calling for confirmation that you are not British.


I do believe I have caught up. I'm going to go get food. Don't do anything fun without me.
…

I'm just kidding… You can have fun without me…

Shit would certianly get real, that's for sure.

Part of me wants to assume they're just trolling hardcore but the disturbing thing is that they were serious.

Oh and in case nobody mentioned it yet you can find a clip from the new pet episode on Equestria Daily. Lol spoilers.

I'm surprised, I didn't think there were going to be anymore spoiler videos since they seemed to have stopped after Luna Eclipsed.

Spoiler with a button by this:
<div class="spoiler" title="Title">Hidden Text</div>

or this

<div class="spoiler">Hidden Text</div>

Spoiler with white text seen with highlighting by this:

Having said that unnecessarily:

It's the bat. Period. She/he is over on the left, sticks out like a sore thumb, and (as seen with the parasprites when she first saw them,) Rainbow does have a liking of cute things (as long as they are cool…)

Do you mean the one for Pony Confessions? If you meant that, then all I could have said was "Cool," or "Neat." I didn't have much to say about it, except for those.

But yeah…sorry. I don't get enthused about some things… Take the sadness.

(when am I actually going to get food for myself?)
