Okay. I'm a little curious, and have been wondering this a long time. Why do you like Diamond Tiara?
Going to talk about DT&SS because I feel the same way about both. For starters, unless I'm forgetting something big, DT&SS are the most recurring antagonists in the show. I like antagonists. And the amount of effort they put into being jerks means I can't help but find them entertaining. Although that isn't to say I support their bullying, just that they're fun to watch. I can't hate a character for doing what they're supposed to do. Plus, she's pretty adorable a lot, which helps.

Welp, pagetop. Bonus Scootaloo

@Lum: Ya know very well that concept was crackfic-central. Plus, who would ever use Dragon Ball Evolution for source material?

Exactly. It'd be like hating discord because he's chaotic. It's just what they do, and they're adorable at times. Plus their twisted friendship is kind of sweet.

[up] I get it. Still would be nice for her to have a Heel–Face Turn soon. But I think that would be as likely as the CMC getting their cutie marks (unless the writers want to throw a wham at us).

Silver Spoon was kind of the Yes Mare in the last episode.

[up] I kinda think that was initially the point of Silver Spoon. Everyone knows that the Alpha Bitch needs at least one Dragon or yes mare. However the writers decided to reveal some Hidden Depths and that resulted in some Misaimed Fandom (That Silver Spoon was secretly a Nice Filly). It would explain her behavior in One Bad Apple and Twilight Time (but then again, in the latter both of them were acting nice, if only for ulterior motives).

Basically wild mass guessThe writers' inital plan for Silver Spoon was to be Diamond Tiara's Satellite Character,wild mass guess a role she still fits, but time will tell if her character (and Diamond Tiara's) develop form that.

Wow the game gets so much easier once you realize that you can get away with only paying for food and heat every other day. I'm on day 28 with 35 in savings and everyone still alive!

Luminosity- I mean I'm worried that I'm not actually a good person and only act like one because I want a girlfriend. It's complicated.

Using the pokeflute in battle wastes a turn. They have a tendency to accidentally use it multiple times in a row.

This. Wasting 12 turns in a row might work against one of Giovanni's grunts, but it's not going to work against the E4.

Why do you like Diamond Tiara?

Well, under normal circumstances, the pokeflute doesn't lose any turns in RBY, since pokemon couldn't attack on the same turn they woke up in that generation, but in the context of Twitch, yeah, that makes sense.

So it's day 4 of my medication, and it's, odd. A few hours ago I started getting tingles and warm sensations, which took me a little while to figure out I was starting to feel some slight emotion as it's reconnecting the pleasure-sensitive neurons in my brain. It's a gradual process and could take a few weeks before the full effects start kicking in, but it's really bizarre to feel anything at all.

[up][up][up] I'm not saying I don't (hence my comment about wanting to see her have a heel face turn). I was just a little curious as to why Swasfewses likes her enough to have a ton of avatars for her.

Dark- glad to hear you're starting to feel something. You'll get used to it.

For me, I went from feeling negative things to not feeling negative things as much and being happy instead, so I don't quite know what you're going through. But I kind of empathize with you on this.

Sounds promising. From what I've heard, depression is a terrible thing.

Anyway, the last episode actually made me like DT more if anything. Though I was disapointed at her relative lack of manipulation this time (though there was still some)

@Ike: I would argue that your ability to question your motives is a good sign. The typical Nice Guy never reflects on or criticizes his own actions.

Bucking arthritis. It's settled into my knee. It may subside enough so I can almost forget about it and walk with just a limp for a while, but it's not going away. I might be able to put this cane aside in a couple of days, but I need to keep it handy now.

Palindrome page!

Quick, everybody so we can move to the next one before Pannic gets on.

@Ike: Yeah, I'm gonna agree with Jakes here. A nice guy is kind of defined by resting on effectively non-existent laurels, so if you're self-aware and interested in improving on that, then you've pretty much already bucked the title. Still, questioning one's own motives is a good thought exercise if nothing else.

But all in all, you do seem like a genuinely cool guy to me. Just, you know, recognize that you aren't owed a girlfriend for it I guess? Try and recognize that any women you like are people, and interactions with them are not an exchange.

Pancakes are tasty.

I've been considering making them lately, but Shrove Tuesday is coming up so I don't wanna make two sets of Pancakes too close together...
