A thread to discuss My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic and the tie-in media.
All of the usual forum rules
apply. In addition, please remember that the thread is discussing a kids' show, and it's primarily focused on the work itself, not the fanfic — in particular, we don't want to see lewdness creeping in.

I don't mind some of the more screamy let's players like Marklipier, Nogla, and Jack Septic Eye.

XP granted for befriending a giant magical spider!^^I had no idea that puppets can do karate. I would think that having no legs {Or no lower body or hands, for that matter} would prevent that. But seriously, I hope you feel better soon. Being sore is never fun.
Also, on the topic of Sonic, I should mention that the Sonic Dissected videos I saw were made before Sonic Lost World {The only things I know about that game is that Lava Mountain is a pain in the ass, some people didn't like Tails's characterization and the villains are kind of generic}. The whole Eggman thing is always an issue I've had before I saw the videos anyway. In general I prefer his characterization in the Adventure games.

I've seen two playthroughs of Lost World. The game seems really mediocre, but god damn does Mike give a great performance as Robotnik in this scene.
"As long as I can still strangle a Zeti, my hands are fine." God I love that scene! Mike Pollock is such a great choice for Robotnik! I loved a lot of his past actors, but Mike is my favorite.
My Tumblr "If theirs one thing I'm good at, it's blowing" Jesse Cox 2013I really dislike streamer who scream or yell. Beyond a certain point, anyway. There's being expressive and then there's yelling at the top of their lungs. The latter tends to get unfollowed after the third outburst (giving me enough time to make sure it wasn't just a one-off thing).
FE: New Mystery Only Feet 7PM PT Sun, Mon, Fri; Umamusume Haru Arima 7PM PT Wed, Thurs: http://www.twitch.tv/kuroitsubasatenshiYeah, Michael Jones of Achievement Hunter is normally someone I disapprove of (I actually quit watching his Full Play series because of him screaming at stuff, not to mention his squealy Jill Valentine impersonation) but in moderation I can enjoy him yelling.
its not just maintenance, they're actually changing the core database system to a brand new one. to use a metaphor, they're not upgrading or repairing the car engine so much as putting in a brand new one.
It's the biggest change they've made since around the time Ponibooru died. it's been down all day, will prob be down most of tomorrow.
XP granted for befriending a giant magical spider!On a more lighter note involving Sonic, I bought Sonic's Ultimate Genesis Collection, which has some sonic games and a shitload of Sega Games in general, including the first 4 Phantasy Star games, Ristar, both the Vectorman games, the Streets Of Rage trilogy, etc. Anyway, the game has a save feature for all the games, which you can activate at any time you want. Needless to say, I've used this to save my progress for Sonic The Hedgehog 2 as well as cheating against the final boss {With how cheap the last two bosses are, I think cheating with a method that the game activly gives to you is well within my right}. It was so satisfying to finally kill Silver Sonic after that bastard gave me a game over so many years ago. Now I just gotta beat the actual final boss.

Well, Derpi isn't technically down. It's just been switched to a "read only" mode. You can still search for and view images, but you can't log in, comment, fave, vote, or upload new images. It's still viewable though.
So I can post things like this.
Anyway, I have to get to bed now.
@Let's players yelling: OOC: I have one rule when it comes to that, it better be deserved. Here's two examples, the first is the Runaway Guys. The trio utterly lost it when Chugga died on the first fight in their Sonic Adventure series. That's ok with me since it was unintentional, stupid, and funny. The second example comes from Game Grumps. My brother tried to show me a clip of them yelling out whatever pokemon they were fighting and I was not amused. It's not like they were shinnies or unexpected legendaries, so what was the point?
Anyway, I think I've hijacked this account for too long. I better give it back to Orion.
We are all made of star stuff. Very, very weird star stuff.I'm going to sleep.
But before I go, I gotta an important message.
- ahem *
HATE's GREAT! BEST VILLAIN! HATE's GREAT! BEST VILLAIN! HATE's GREAT! BEST VILLAIN!
That is all.
Good night.

My Tumblr "If theirs one thing I'm good at, it's blowing" Jesse Cox 2013Besides, there have always been interpretations and re-interpretations of various mythological creatures. The original Vampires were the corpses of the gluttonous and the Greedy reanimated every night to feast. That story was passed down orally(heh) until a relatively-modern writer got her hands on it and re-wrote it into something that was both more appealing to her contemporaries, and more pleasant overall. Specifically, where original Vampires were viewed as evil because they took more than their share, at a time when people struggled to make enough food to survive, the 'classic' Vampire was evil because he corrupted people, manipulated their sexuality, and took advantage of them. Count Dracula was the embodiment of the(perceived) evils of his time every bit as much as the origial ghouls were the evils of their time. Meyer's interpretation of Vampires is actually a very logical one, following that pattern - they're the picture of modern excess; rich, perpetually young and beautiful, built for seduction. The heroic vampires live humbly, being close to nature and going to public schools, and shut down their own sense of allure, deliberately avoiding excess contact with their prey. They are virtuous because the eschew modern excesses, whereas the villainous vampires are also rich, damn near unstoppable, and vaguely lusty. Meyer's image of Modern Evil via vampires are the upper class, the Beautiful People. Given the nature of America today, not an unfair sentiment.
There are much, much more valid reasons to shit on those books.

All things are lawful for me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but all things edify not.

I have a few people that I like to watch Let's Plays of. I don't enjoy guys screaming into the mic or at stuff that's their fault, though, unless I find it funny.
