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.

     Original OP text 
I don't know WHAT the Hell happened (I blame shenanigans) but we're going to start from scratch. Post your feels for this awesome show again! Naow!

His presence and terror just got better as it went on. He was freaking terrifying the whole time.. And he showed he wasn't just brute force, but was cunning when he had to be. Just, as he got stronger, he simply didn't need to be as much.

@ Irish: Well, your pepperoni pizza is a balanced meal. You got your bread, your dairy, your fruit and your meat. See? Healthy!

I'll give Tirek one thing, he's cunning to boot. I doubt Ponyville would have been in the mess that it was if Tirek hadn't tricked Discord.

One way to put it: When you can't smash, manipulate.

And even when he was smashing, he knew how to strike a bargain.

[up][up][up]Well, I suppose you can get vegetables too if you add mushrooms.

Wait, mushrooms are a fungus, not a vegetable...

I would love to see the moment where ancient man first decided to eat the mushrooms they saw on the ground.

Because, if you think about it, it's pretty weird for someone to decide that that shit looked tasty.

@Ed: The same could be said about any type of food. Who thought yeast and water would make a good idea? Who thought drinking cow milk would be a smart idea?

@ Ed: I feel the same way about blue cheese. Who the buck looks at cheese with weird blue mold growing on it and says, "Hmm. I'll bet that's delicious!"?

I was lurking through the last half of S1, but I didn't start posting until the gap between seasons. I think.

Same

We were well above that by the time the thread got nuked. I want to say somewhere in the 50k range, but I don't remember for certain.

14915 or 16 pages at the time of nuking.

[up][up][up]Well, we already knew that mother's milk was healthy for you. It's not that big of a leap to think milk of other animals might also be healthy.

I'm more interested in whoever thought spoiling milk would result in one of the mightiest foods known to man.

Yeah really, I'd wager the whole history of food and cuisine involves people making really weird, but somehow non-lethal, choices about what to put in their mouths.

Humanity's capacity to try and stomach anything they can put in their mouth should be a testament against our free will. [lol]

Speaking of foods; Bacon. I've been watching Oregon Trail 2 videos and every time someone tries to buy something, they always buy several hundred pounds of bacon.

Bacon is love. Bacon is life.

OK, not so much life, because that much will probably kill you, but still.

Look at southern food, the whole thing really sorta came about when the French found a bunch of critters in the swamps and fried them with some spices and rice.

Gumbo is delicious, by the way. Same for catfish.

One has, in every different game we've played so far, done his damnedest to harass or outright rape any female characters, PC or NPC,

Ug, I hate those people. I remember at our shorted lived 4ed group, there was one problem player like that. After the very first battle, he tries to rape a goblin corpse, causing the DM to get so frustrated that he said, 'the corpse punches you' ("rigor mortis").

After that, he got in a fight with the guards of the first town we came to and got thrown in jail. We naturally had to get him out even though there was no IC reason to do so. He rewarded us by backstabbing us again in the next fight.

Wow, glad our group doesn't have any asshole like that.

Worse we have is one person that tends to act without thinking. And one that tends to be totally random, but in rather amusing or hilarious ways.

@ed: With that icon, I read "Bacon is love. Bacon is life." In Rarity's voice. I'm a little worried now.

@dark: So is frog legs and snails. :P

Honestly, If I could do more tabletop gaming, I would. I usually fill in for somebody in my brothers' group, or anything I get involved in dissolves.

Really, the main problem is that he always set himself up as someone invaluable to the group. First game, our diplomat(Somehow). Second game, support bared. Third game, Cleric. He just seems to like to troll, which can be funny, but most of the time it's just really uncomfortable.

Maybe after Story gets back from his trip I can talk to him about trying to set up a Pathfinder game. That'd be fun.

Well I'm more interested in 3.5 than PF, and I had a bad experience with play by Skype anyway. Though I suppose there are better ways to handle online play.

Eh, skype can work, just a bit harder and requires people to be prety relaxed and lose about things. Combat does slow down way to much though.

@Syd: I dunno, but blue cheese is delicious.

I'm pretty sure that most cheeses were discovered by somebody not realizing their milk had gone bad, and realizing that the result wasn't that bad. Then other people upped their standards and refined the cheese into something that isn't gross. Most of the time.
