they put me in a special needs class treated me as if I knew nothing this continued until i went into high school the first 2 years went fine but 2 years ago I had a emotional breakdown in school which left me with bad memory retention
one day maybe I will be able to remember things again
Is there any work around so that every time I comment on a post with more than 1 page of comments, I don't get taken to the first page again? It get's kind of irritating. Also is my little dashie really that sad? Looks like I'll have to read it when I'm feeling happy then
I appreciate the cryptic message you guys left about where the new thread was. I kept waiting for something to pop up on SALT, then I went back an read nearly all the last few comments. I've been sick so I coudn't really post. Also my new Spanish name is Lobo, funny story why
also I am near seattle, but... I dunno if I'll go to EverfreeNW though........ that'd be a big step. although some of my friends and I are starting a D&D group, so that's probably socially worse than ponies hahah
also, I love you all, you guys are fun to talk to, and have provided me with a place I can talk about my love of ponies!
watch out for Pinkie now.... but Oh, I will have a party, just nut a draaaaaaank party, which I'm fine with. Luckily a lot of my friends are at college in Washington. I'm kind of like pinkie in the fact that I have a LOT of parties at my house
I've only done it once for a little while, because me and my friend group are pretty nerdy, but we're also fairly popular, so we never really wanted to do it. but now.... it will be awesome!
@Ben Good! The little angry nerd in us rages every time we see our friends family play the restricted board game version. Funny though, since we have never played D&D.
Oh ok, I feel incredibly stupid now. Oh that just brought back some memories, I remember waaaay long ago there was this cartoon called Dexter's Laboratory, and in one of the episodes, this game was played. Ah the nostalgia. I've never actually played it myself, though.
I'm going to need some time to remember all the names. From the top of my head (favourite old shows): Dexter's Laboratory Pink Panther My brain is not working right now. Favourite current shows: 1. Doctor Who 2. FiM (sorry! I'm just a huge Whovian) 3. My brain needs its sleep. I can't even remember my favourite current shows...
(continued) Power Rangers Transformers Thundercats The Flintstones The Jetsons Full Metal Alchamest Wolf's Rain Rocket Power Sonic X(SHADOW FOREVER) Star Wars Series Ed,Edd,n Eddy The original Spiderman Jackie Chan Adventures
Oh yes, Garfield! Is that an old show? I don't really know. The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy Ed, Edd, and Eddy The Flintstones And that's about all I can remember
#1 MLP: FIM #1 Detective Conan #1 The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya #1 Doctor Who #1 Big Bang Theory #1 Clannad #1 Kanon #1 Dragonball/DBZ #1 Air #1 Full Metal Alchemist #1 Persona 4: The Animation #1 plenty of other anime. Brain too dead will post others as remembered. Don't make us order stuff.
Toss up between FiM and Dr. Who. Honestly, most of the stuff out there seems pretty vapid. Besides, I could go for years just trying to catch up on all the episodes. Maybe Firefly if I ever got the chance.
@RavensDagger Love Clannad so much! Haruhi is harder to explain. Funny, fan service, serious, has 2 episodes that are just references to Detective Conan, Haruhi = God. We have no idea how to explain that show, other than say, "watch a couple episodes."
I took Geometry in seventh grade and aced it. Just sayin~
Anyways, onwards to favorite shows!!
1. Samurai Jack 2. The Flintstones/Looney Tunes 3. My Little Pony/ Dan Vs. 4. Pink Panther & that French Inspector that often accompanied the time slot
Notable mentions: The Grim adventures of Billy and Mandy, Spongebob (The OLDER episodes, not the new, bad ones), Jackie Chan (animated one), Xaolin Showdown, Chuck, some anime (Naruto and One Piece are really the only ones that I like)
Anyways, some of these I listed just outta pure nostalgia of Saturday mornings as a kid :D
I've got a choice to make here - I can either stop reading fanfics and get on my programming or I can keep reading fanfics and wait unitl I take CS in college to take my programming more seriously than a few functions here and there.
@Dͪ͊ͦḮ̘ͯS̔̐̓C̹̔Ã’͓͙̫R̀͠͞D͙̫ Looking at the comments on the post, We guess that all these sites are shutting down for the day to "fight the power." Honestly, how is this going to do anything?
SOPA failed, but another bill just like it called PIPA is coming. They basically wanted to distract people with SOPA so that they would miss the other bill.
@Ben Gibson I've been a lazy POS for two days now because of the snow... Not even any ponies yesterday, just Shogun 2: Total War. It would seem that I am on the sleeping schedule of someone who lives anywhere in between Japan and China.
@RavensDagger If they think ALL of the punctuation in those first few chapters is wrong, they don't deserve to be called an EqD pre-reader. That's just my opinion, though.
@Jelfes not ALL but lots.. "turns out that if somepony said Tsomething (like this dialogue and it ends in her ssaid the 'H' in he has to be lower case," he said.
@DeRockProject How many stories are in your G-Docs? I skimmed over it and it looks like a screen play that sorta skips about... is it a plot outline? (mine sorta look like that; when I have one)
XD It's a trailer. Everything is all part of one story. I'll explain, when the readers first see Applejack, she doesn't want to deal with them so she just sends them somewhere else in the story. Luna does the same. Twilight notices the readers have a bunch of questions but tries to distract them with an unrelated flashback.
And then the struggle between the Narrator and Twilight sends the story into random places.
Starting from the 2nd part, they're just writing practices I guess. Again, all different parts of one giant story.
Alright, here's a taste of what that guy was talking about. I'll give you more indepth information later, as I picked up your story on Ponychan. (Is a reviewer there)
Hehehehehehehe.
Attribution of Dialogue:
All examples assume American English conventions. You may use international or British conventions, but you must be consistent. Some of these will be “wrong” by one set of conventions, so tread carefully. We suggest those selected as “correct” but we will not demand them changed if they are correct by one set of standards.
✔ "Hi there," the pink pony giggled. (She giggled while saying the words.)
✔ "Hi there." The pink pony giggled. (She said those words, then giggled.)
✔ "Hi there." The pink pony grinned. (The word 'grinned' isn't a 'speaking' verb.)
✔ "Hi there!" the pink pony shouted. (Exclamations and queries replace the comma.)
✖ "Hi there," the pink pony grinned. (It should be a period: ‘grinned’ isn’t a ‘speaking’ verb.)
✖ "Hi there." The pink pony said. (This should be a comma; no capitalization should be used)
✖ "Hi there"! the pink pony shouted! (Punctuation of dialogue belongs inside the quotes.)
✖ "Hi there!" The pink pony shouted! (Don’t capitalize "the"; treat the "!" as a comma.)
My current project is a tripfic (fanfic with real people) dedicated to the reviewers (and nonreviewers) at Ponychan. I'll basically be writing about my adventures ever since I joined the fandom, but jazzing it up by turning it into an epic adventure instead. To see more info, visit this handy little Gdocs I created.
Alright, here's the game plan, Ravensdagger. First, I'm going to look at what Faintpony said in his review on Ponychan (if he wrote anything down instead of only using Gdocs). Next, I'll check the comments on FIMFiction to see what they say. After that, I'll take a run through the chapters and point out the basic things the best I can like commas, punctuation, grammar, that kind of thing. While I'm doing this, I will look through the previous three posts that we took over, and will copy everything you ever said pertaining to this story into a document so that I can see where you're going with this. I will also nag Jelfes for his opinion and notes sometime. Once that's through, I'll read it again and try to point out the inconsistencies. Seeing as how your fic is 31k, it might take a while. (It's awesome that you wrote so much. Much dedication you have. <3)
Normally, when you post something on ponychan, it takes awhile for others to claim it, especially if your story is over 10k. I'm going to help to the best of my ability but I'm a line by line editor, so it takes me awhile to review things. But let's see if we can make this story a lot better. Onwards and upwards! Rawr!
Ravensdagger, copy the email that EqD sent you and tell me what they told you word for word. That way, I can see if they mention anything else besides punctuation.
Unless the pre-reader just saw the dialogue attribution thing and then just quit reading in the middle. For works like this, they only read the first chapter or two before they make a judgement. Since your fic is 31k, they only read the first 3k unless they REALLY like your fic.
Also, I hope you're not submitting the entire fanfic at once. If you want maximum exposure for your story, just send them a few chapters at a time. (Around 3k each time)
Then, after your story updates, send another three thousand words so that your story shows the next day in the update posts.
@Dublio Went to bathroom.. Nopony here Come back... Wall o' text!
I am really glad that it's you Dublio! Having someoone I already know will make things easier on the both of us. Know this I CAN TAKE CRITICISM. Give it to me, I'am not a wuss when it come to having my errors pointed out to me. (heck I do that for a living, fixing mistakes)
And please take your time, do it at your pace if that means doing it well! I wasn't expecting anything until at least next week from ponychan, having a response so eairly is a real blessing.
Other notes: Ill be adding more chapters to the directory (finishing us chapter 33 atm i am now at 60K~) Also do you want my Email adrees so as not to food these comments with our dialogue?
@Dublio I'll send it over (note I've already fixed some things with Faint since I sent a version to EQD (about a week ago). Also I only sent about half the fic over, i'll release the other half in segments (I'll take more time to edit aswell)
"I will look through the previous three posts that we took over, and will copy everything you ever said pertaining to this story into a document so that I can see where you're going with this." -Dublio (before his death caused by starvation and screen burns)
I'm lurking in your doc directory, along with a random anon whose been there for awhile. So, you're telling me that you wrote 60k for your story so far? Even more impressive. For now, let's just focus on the first few chapters. If you release too much at once, it will be released on EqD only once, a few people will appear, and that's it. If you only release 3kish per, then after ten days, you'll have so much exposure that you explode.
Also, it's fun to look back and see how far you've come in the past month. Your first mention was about chapter three, way back in December 12th.
I feel like I'm getting bored of the show and the fandom. I'm gonna rewatch season 1 some time this week (hopefully) to see how I feel.
Since I know I don't like it when someone focuses on themselves all the time, let me throw a question back at you guys: have you all ever felt bored of the show/fandom in the past or currently?
@Dublio That's quite the undertaking, Dublio! I look forward to reading it.
To answer you, amddude: No, I haven't gotten bored of the show or fandom, though I am absolutely exhausted on account of them. As I've said before, my internal clock is messed up really bad. Sleeping in the day time and active in the night.
@amddude The show lately feels like it hasn't lived up to my expectations. Some of the episodes are becoming to easy to figure out. Granite we still have more to go and I haven't watched any episodes recently.
The fandom still surprises me, an I still need to finish my fic, I keep putting it off while my other stuff piles up
anyway SOPA couldn't pass. America is supposed to be a democracy right? The will of the people is supposed to come first, if nobody wants sopa then it shouldn't pass (TBH there hasn'e been a real democratic contry in almost 2 thousand years)
I never got "tired" of MLP, but there are times when I feel "burnt out." In these cases, I have kept a small special reserve of songs and fanfics which I use only in dire situations when I want to feel nostalgic. And taking breaks helps me stay interested.
@Trotsky I've never listened to more than one minute of Beyond Her Garden. I don't want to spoil it. It's a great song, but the thing is: I listen to music A LOT. So, a lot of songs have gone stale for me. I don't want this song to go stale, so i'm saving it for a very rainy day

ReplyDeleteD&D... oh god how i want to play it
@Dͪ͊ͦḮ̘ͯS̔̐̓C̹̔Ã’͓͙̫R̀͠͞D͙̫
ReplyDeleteone of the few cliche 'geek' things I have yet to try. Tabletop games. They were never popular in my area.
@Dͪ͊ͦḮ̘ͯS̔̐̓C̹̔Ã’͓͙̫R̀͠͞D͙̫
ReplyDeleteI've only done it once for a little while, because me and my friend group are pretty nerdy, but we're also fairly popular, so we never really wanted to do it. but now.... it will be awesome!
Never fully understood the whole reasoning/subculture behind D&D. My whole knowledge about it was gained by reading webcomics
ReplyDelete@Ben Gibson
ReplyDeleteAs much as it may be "geekie" I've always wanted to play, sadly I know no one with it :(
preping the cannon!
ReplyDeleteboard game boring D&D? or do it yourself fun, non limited, D&D?
Trotsky! Hi!
@Travis Smith
ReplyDeleteyeah we're slowly figuring it out, we're probably gonna meet up in a couple weeks, and I need to get a character sheet or something...
@ftfc definitely option #2 I didn't even know there was a board gamer version
Hello there Trotsky!
ReplyDeleteForgive me, but what is D&D? I hope I don't sound too stupid asking that
@ThunderIce
ReplyDeleteDungeons and dragons. Its a tabletop game, basically a multiplayer RPG without the computer...
@Ben
ReplyDeleteGood! The little angry nerd in us rages every time we see our friends family play the restricted board game version. Funny though, since we have never played D&D.
@ThunderIce
ReplyDeleteyeah what Raven said, I know next to nothing at this point, but in a few weeks I'll know stuff.
It's fun if you have an imagination (I would imagine that it is at least)
@ftfc
ReplyDeletethat dioesn't sound fun at all...
Oh ok, I feel incredibly stupid now. Oh that just brought back some memories, I remember waaaay long ago there was this cartoon called Dexter's Laboratory, and in one of the episodes, this game was played. Ah the nostalgia. I've never actually played it myself, though.

ReplyDeleteLooking at the comments on the post, We guess that all these sites are shutting down for the day to "fight the power."
Honestly, how is this going to do anything?
@ftfc
ReplyDeleteIt will piss people off and raise awareness about the SOPA and PIPA bills.
SOPA failed, but another bill just like it called PIPA is coming. They basically wanted to distract people with SOPA so that they would miss the other bill.
ReplyDelete@amddude
ReplyDeleteStill don't really get it. Seems childish. Only thing that we can genuinely see working is contacting the senators and representatives.
Oh well, pay no mind to our ramblings. We don't have a similar thought process to most of the internet.
Wake up!
ReplyDeleteLeave your hesitation!
Wake up!
Time for us to realize!
Wake up!
Show appreciation!
Wake up!
Time for us to realize!
Our boredom leads to random lyrics!
We'll support this act, for any chance it has to help.

...okay. I'm kinda scared about posting this. But here it is.

It's a fanfic. By a person who's never wrote any story before. A person who got an F in his Eng101 class recently.
I already showed this to Jelfes, but I changed a bunch of stuff, so might as well.
Anyone can comment by Ctrl+Alt+M
No EQD for a whole day? That makes me a sad pony :(
ReplyDelete@Ben Gibson I've been a lazy POS for two days now because of the snow... Not even any ponies yesterday, just Shogun 2: Total War. It would seem that I am on the sleeping schedule of someone who lives anywhere in between Japan and China.
ReplyDelete@RavensDagger If they think ALL of the punctuation in those first few chapters is wrong, they don't deserve to be called an EqD pre-reader. That's just my opinion, though.
ReplyDelete@Jelfes
ReplyDeleteNOT EVEN PONIES?!?! I get that.. I've been playing a lot of New Vegas since friday.
@Jelfes
ReplyDeletenot ALL but lots..
"turns out that if somepony said Tsomething (like this dialogue and it ends in her ssaid the 'H' in he has to be lower case," he said.
I didn't know this.
So many websites are down.......
ReplyDeleteNo ponies equal lees or more procrastination?
*Cracks fingers* Lets get writing!
ReplyDelete*IGNORED*
ReplyDelete@DeRockProject
ReplyDeleteHow many stories are in your G-Docs? I skimmed over it and it looks like a screen play that sorta skips about...
is it a plot outline? (mine sorta look like that; when I have one)
@Ravensdagger - That would be dialogue punctuation. Here's a handy guide for you.
ReplyDelete...
Well, you'll see in a bit. Now you'll get a taste of what I've been doing for the past two months. Prepare your anus.
XD
ReplyDeleteIt's a trailer. Everything is all part of one story.
I'll explain, when the readers first see Applejack, she doesn't want to deal with them so she just sends them somewhere else in the story. Luna does the same. Twilight notices the readers have a bunch of questions but tries to distract them with an unrelated flashback.
And then the struggle between the Narrator and Twilight sends the story into random places.
Starting from the 2nd part, they're just writing practices I guess. Again, all different parts of one giant story.
Alright, here's a taste of what that guy was talking about. I'll give you more indepth information later, as I picked up your story on Ponychan. (Is a reviewer there)
ReplyDeleteHehehehehehehe.
Attribution of Dialogue:
All examples assume American English conventions.
You may use international or British conventions, but you must be consistent. Some of these will be “wrong” by one set of conventions, so tread carefully. We suggest those selected as “correct” but we will not demand them changed if they are correct by one set of standards.
✔ "Hi there," the pink pony giggled. (She giggled while saying the words.)
✔ "Hi there." The pink pony giggled. (She said those words, then giggled.)
✔ "Hi there." The pink pony grinned. (The word 'grinned' isn't a 'speaking' verb.)
✔ "Hi there!" the pink pony shouted. (Exclamations and queries replace the comma.)
✖ "Hi there," the pink pony grinned. (It should be a period: ‘grinned’ isn’t a ‘speaking’ verb.)
✖ "Hi there." The pink pony said. (This should be a comma; no capitalization should be used)
✖ "Hi there"! the pink pony shouted! (Punctuation of dialogue belongs inside the quotes.)
✖ "Hi there!" The pink pony shouted! (Don’t capitalize "the"; treat the "!" as a comma.)
My current project is a tripfic (fanfic with real people) dedicated to the reviewers (and nonreviewers) at Ponychan. I'll basically be writing about my adventures ever since I joined the fandom, but jazzing it up by turning it into an epic adventure instead. To see more info, visit this handy little Gdocs I created.
ReplyDeleteBehold.
Best Drawfriend ever!!
ReplyDeleteHere's another helpful document.
ReplyDeleteAlright, here's the game plan, Ravensdagger. First, I'm going to look at what Faintpony said in his review on Ponychan (if he wrote anything down instead of only using Gdocs). Next, I'll check the comments on FIMFiction to see what they say. After that, I'll take a run through the chapters and point out the basic things the best I can like commas, punctuation, grammar, that kind of thing. While I'm doing this, I will look through the previous three posts that we took over, and will copy everything you ever said pertaining to this story into a document so that I can see where you're going with this. I will also nag Jelfes for his opinion and notes sometime. Once that's through, I'll read it again and try to point out the inconsistencies. Seeing as how your fic is 31k, it might take a while. (It's awesome that you wrote so much. Much dedication you have. <3)
Normally, when you post something on ponychan, it takes awhile for others to claim it, especially if your story is over 10k. I'm going to help to the best of my ability but I'm a line by line editor, so it takes me awhile to review things. But let's see if we can make this story a lot better. Onwards and upwards! Rawr!
Ravensdagger, copy the email that EqD sent you and tell me what they told you word for word. That way, I can see if they mention anything else besides punctuation.
ReplyDeleteUnless the pre-reader just saw the dialogue attribution thing and then just quit reading in the middle. For works like this, they only read the first chapter or two before they make a judgement. Since your fic is 31k, they only read the first 3k unless they REALLY like your fic.
Also, I hope you're not submitting the entire fanfic at once. If you want maximum exposure for your story, just send them a few chapters at a time. (Around 3k each time)
Then, after your story updates, send another three thousand words so that your story shows the next day in the update posts.
@Dublio
ReplyDeleteWent to bathroom.. Nopony here
Come back... Wall o' text!
I am really glad that it's you Dublio! Having someoone I already know will make things easier on the both of us. Know this I CAN TAKE CRITICISM. Give it to me, I'am not a wuss when it come to having my errors pointed out to me. (heck I do that for a living, fixing mistakes)
And please take your time, do it at your pace if that means doing it well! I wasn't expecting anything until at least next week from ponychan, having a response so eairly is a real blessing.
Other notes: Ill be adding more chapters to the directory (finishing us chapter 33 atm i am now at 60K~) Also do you want my Email adrees so as not to food these comments with our dialogue?
@Dublio
ReplyDeleteI'll send it over (note I've already fixed some things with Faint since I sent a version to EQD (about a week ago). Also I only sent about half the fic over, i'll release the other half in segments (I'll take more time to edit aswell)
"I will look through the previous three posts that we took over, and will copy everything you ever said pertaining to this story into a document so that I can see where you're going with this."
ReplyDelete-Dublio (before his death caused by starvation and screen burns)
I'm lurking in your doc directory, along with a random anon whose been there for awhile. So, you're telling me that you wrote 60k for your story so far? Even more impressive. For now, let's just focus on the first few chapters. If you release too much at once, it will be released on EqD only once, a few people will appear, and that's it. If you only release 3kish per, then after ten days, you'll have so much exposure that you explode.
ReplyDeleteAlso, it's fun to look back and see how far you've come in the past month. Your first mention was about chapter three, way back in December 12th.
@Dublio
ReplyDeletewow, it's been a while... I always start something crazy the week after by birthday, huh?
I feel like I'm getting bored of the show and the fandom. I'm gonna rewatch season 1 some time this week (hopefully) to see how I feel.
ReplyDeleteSince I know I don't like it when someone focuses on themselves all the time, let me throw a question back at you guys: have you all ever felt bored of the show/fandom in the past or currently?
There's always too much stuff to do! Drawings! Songs! Fanfics! PMVs! Games! What else? I'm getting tired of so much!!! But it's awesome!
ReplyDeleteOr I play Katawa Crash.
http://images.4channel.org/f/src/katawa_crash_beta_8-36.swf
To quote Winter Wrap-Up "There's just so much to do!"
ReplyDeleteHonestly, i am more of a fan of the fandom than the actual show. There, i said it. I regret nothing!
@amddude
ReplyDeleteThe show itself bored me a while ago (although new episodes spice things up a tad.
What keeps me here is the fandom, the community, SALT... The sheer epicness of it all.
TBH when I get tired of it all I go do something else for a while, video games, reading... ect The when I come back I feel refreshed.
POOOOOOOONEEEEEE POOOOOONEEE
ReplyDeleteIs there a way to reply to that?
ReplyDelete@Dublio That's quite the undertaking, Dublio! I look forward to reading it.
ReplyDeleteTo answer you, amddude: No, I haven't gotten bored of the show or fandom, though I am absolutely exhausted on account of them. As I've said before, my internal clock is messed up really bad. Sleeping in the day time and active in the night.
@amddude
ReplyDeleteThe show lately feels like it hasn't lived up to my expectations. Some of the episodes are becoming to easy to figure out.
Granite we still have more to go and I haven't watched any episodes recently.
The fandom still surprises me, an I still need to finish my fic, I keep putting it off while my other stuff piles up
found this on memebase.
ReplyDelete@ftfc
ReplyDeleteGood show!
anyway SOPA couldn't pass. America is supposed to be a democracy right? The will of the people is supposed to come first, if nobody wants sopa then it shouldn't pass (TBH there hasn'e been a real democratic contry in almost 2 thousand years)
facebook/twitter have "where's Wiki?" comments everywhere as well.
ReplyDeleteIt annoyed my teacher that their was no Wikipedia :D
ReplyDeleteSo, it prompted my physics teacher to make The PowerPoint From Hell.
Ya I'm hurting without Wikipedia to read
ReplyDelete@Bombedrumbum
ReplyDeleteWe would like to know what this Power Point from hell is.
Hmm......i haven't mentioned my physics teacher in a while. Not many of you people remember- have seen my first comments about him.
ReplyDeleteLet's just put it in our friend Discord's words in response to my explanation of him: "OMG WHERE THE HELL TO YOU GO TO SCHOOL!!?!"
@Bombedrumbum
ReplyDelete*do
and yeah you talk about him fairly often.
@Bombedrumbum
ReplyDeleteWe remember reading about how freaking awesome he was.
also was reading through the comments of the sopa/pipa post and ZeroHero, the one guy that used to talk to you guys, said he'd like to get back in.
Who ever said that he wasn't welcome back??! :D
ReplyDeleteCome 'ere, ZeroHero!
Imma go try to watch avatar, looks half decent. BRB in a few to tell you how bad it is!
ReplyDeleteYeah, I don't recall ever saying ZeroHero couldn't be here. Besides, I haven't had anyone to talk about squigglyspooch with... very disappointing.
ReplyDeleteWe have to find him and give him link to here.
ReplyDeleteComp is not agreeing with us today.
What is a squigglyspooch?
ReplyDeleteIn all my life I've never heard that.
An if not there ain't a hog in Gerogia
What is a squigglyspooch?
ReplyDeleteIn all my life I've never heard that.

ReplyDeletehttp://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=squiggly-spooch
Squigglyspooch sounds awfully familiar. We think it's from a cartoon. ugh this will drive us nuts for a bit.
ReplyDelete@Ravens
ReplyDeleteThat clairified it
My childhood, it is ruined..........MUST UNHEAR!!!
ReplyDelete@Bombedrumbum
ReplyDeleteNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
@RD
Zim! that is definitely it!
Yup. Yoshi is a Communist.
ReplyDeletePachelbel's canon. thank you random smart guy on youtube comments!
ReplyDelete@ftfc what about it?
ReplyDeleteI played that song for my cousin's wedsing, and I stated it several times before.
*wedding
ReplyDeleteboth songs are based off it.
ReplyDeleteYoshi's Island Theme.
USSR anthem.
Checking for confirmation now.
I never got "tired" of MLP, but there are times when I feel "burnt out." In these cases, I have kept a small special reserve of songs and fanfics which I use only in dire situations when I want to feel nostalgic. And taking breaks helps me stay interested.
ReplyDeleteWelp I am off to sleep, Gonna try to finish off a contract tomorrow, it promisses to be a long day!
ReplyDeleteNight All!
@Trotsky I've never listened to more than one minute of Beyond Her Garden. I don't want to spoil it. It's a great song, but the thing is: I listen to music A LOT. So, a lot of songs have gone stale for me. I don't want this song to go stale, so i'm saving it for a very rainy day
ReplyDelete@Bombedrumbum Listend to every version. Original and beyond her tomb are best. (in my opinion) also look up jakleapp and dr.disonance.
ReplyDeleteutter failure. no one has sources that aren't Wiki.
ReplyDeleteThings don't get stale to easily for us. we can stay attached to something we like for a long while.
Songs like these (Ragtime) don't get stale easily
ReplyDeletePAGE 3 COMMENTS FTW
ReplyDeleteJust realized, tomorrow is also Equestria Daily's Birthday!
ReplyDeleteSeriously, this guy is amazing
ReplyDelete@ftfc Youknow what this calls for??
ReplyDeleteHmmm.......and the safety dance
