  1. Now that I want to see. Are you still struggling to pick between the names Obliteration and Slartibartfast?
  2. And teach him to bark whenever you read passages from Revelations?
  3. Whew. That's a relief. Quick, post pugs to prove how wholesome the thread is!
  4. Oh, uh, hi Rubix. I promise it's not usually this weird in here.
  5. "...Are you running some sort of chocolate-for-your-chastity scam?" Please just put our minds at ease by confirming Funtimes would never show intimate interest in Shiny. Please.
  6. "But it's been years since I've had chocolate... I mean, of course not." I'm not sure if the forum guidelines would be broken by the violence, or by the "love." I'm not sure how much thought I should be putting into this.
  7. If you find the idea of a grown lecherous woman trying to take custody of a teenager's life, secretly wishing to seduce said teenager despite said teenager's wishes, "rather terrifying," then congratulations! You are a decent human being.
  8. "On the one hand, it's a box of chocolates in a heart-shaped box left up in a floating fortress where only an Epic could reach. On the other hand... they're chocolates." Doctor K. Bold? So she might liberate them from the Robot Crocodile Shack to bring them to her Love Shack?
  9. Should I call myself Doctor Kobold or Doctor King? Shiny's pretty precariously balanced on a thin veil of sanity right now. She could come to respect her infatuation's boundaries more... or she could decide that she needs to try even harder to make people love her, like the worst kind of stalker.
  10. ...What if the Cosmere is just one of Soulcaster's dream worlds?
  11. We all have honorary PhDs in wacky Epicology. By the way, out of curiosity were you serious that Shiny Sparkle would take a liking to Sam if they met, or was that just a memetic joke?
  12. How would Funtimes know whether Sam was in hell or paradise? She'd just be lying there on the floor, unconscious. Soulcaster could even give Funtimes the illusion of a synchronized dream where she finds Sam happy and well within a dream.
  13. If Funtimes gets to choose what her friends look like in this dream world, could she make Nathan genuinely look exactly like David Tennant?
  14. And for Sam to mime her behind her back?
  15. We were as surprised as you were when Lightsworn showed up on the Question thread.
  16. Celestia darn it. I did it again.
  17. There are a lot of problems with Equestrian society, but none of those really qualify. The ponies don't force their virtues on the griffons. The griffons are wallowing in a level of greed that's extremely harmful to themselves and everyone around them--one griffon even abandons Rainbow to die because she's out of money! At the end all they do is convince one griffon that there are kinder, less self-centered ways of thinking. They pretty much just introduced basic morality to the place. As for the yaks, nowhere is it indicated that the ponies consider themselves superior to them, nor do they make a mockery of anyone. In fact Twilight puts considerable effort into giving then authentic luxuries to remind them of their homeland, but since the yaks sealed off their borders for however-many years, she was forced to work with hopelessly out-of-date info. The final party wasn't meant to prove Equestrian society was superior. It was merely there to prove to the yaks that pony culture was equally unique and beautiful in its own way. And finally, the convention if naming a country after its inhabitants is hardly indicative of racism. Griffonstone seems to indicate that it's not an uncommon convention on their world, and England was named for similar reasons. ("Angle Land.")
  18. You reap what you sow, and you've sown a lot of kindness. I'll shoot for at least fifty. I don't ask for money often--ever, actually--so I'll milk this as much as I can.
  19. So, remember TwiLyght's Pug Fund? Vague plans for raising cash to buy TwiLyght a pug puppy when she eventually moves out? Today I approached my mom with knowledge of this fund, hesitantly trying to find out whether the family's bank account could spare anything. The conversation went better than I expected. ME: Hey, uh, I was just wondering whether we'd be able to spare thirty to fifty dollars or so sometime soon... MOTHER: Yes, of course. ME: ...Whoah. That's it? Just "of course"? MOTHER: Yep. We've got a lot of money to spare right now. Why do you need thirty to fifty dollars? When I explained the situation, she got wholeheartedly behind it. So in all likelihood I will be able to donate to this Fund, if and when it opens.
  20. No question. The Super Bowl Coke commercial. What's your favorite ship, in terms of fictional romantic pairings?
  21. The most nightmarish thing about Calamityville was how poorly planned it was. What it ultimately boils down to is that Möbius was being attacked by another Epic, a sort of telepath who was able to attack her mind as well as her body. At risk of being driven permanently to insanity, she was destroying the areas most likely to have housed the attacker while simultaneously using her temporarily enhanced powers to summon dangerous Epics she thought she might be able to sway to her side and use to her advantage. It's as simple as that. And also sounds kind of stupid when I lay it all out like that. Other people did some exceptional writing in that thread, but I was not a very good thread GM. What Happened in Portland, What Happened in the Dalles, and literally any other thread are much better reads if you're looking for quality plot lines.
  22. You're a big guy.
  23. Huh. Even CorpseMaker? Does anyone remember if there was anything specific I needed to wrap up in the next Lightwards post?
  24. How would you rate it next to Marvel's other recent films? My family and I are still trying to decide whether to make Ant-Man our next family movie night.
