Probably Stuck Between Dimensions
(Yes, I know this place is back. No, I don't plan on returning; I just don't fit in with the whole "4chan vibe", as I heard it described recently. Anyway, if anyone wants to keep in touch, catch TryshaGray on Twitter. Otherwise, have fun, and keep it pony.)
Not all ponies miss out on all that Princess Luna has put together for her show after she brings out the moon! Me? I do some of my best work and spell-weaving when the stars come out. Besides, I tend to be the sort to keep to myself, a lot of the time. Lately, I've found I'm a lot more of a "Twilight Sparkle" person, though some still say I have a very "Fluttershy" personality, right down to being more likely to talk to your critter companions than you, at first. It takes me a little while, but if I don't get too badly spooked, I'll open up. And if you see me suddenly pop out of a moon portal, or catch my eye hovering in the sky as I try to find someone or something I've lost again . . . sorry about that. I really try not to startle people too much with this stuff. It's just so cool, though!

@nlghtmaremoon I'll try to hide it better next time. ;)

@zach Well, at least it's not the petition that told Hasbro to "unclench (their) butthole" that everyone was initially signing. :/ But, seriously, wait for the facts to come in. Right now, we have nothing more than anonymous sources, rumours, and people using already-disproven hoaxes -- Hasbro's removing The Last Roundup from iTunes supposedly also being in response to protests -- as evidence.
-
@leonkfox Yes, I just was reading the vague article that showed up on EqD while I was in my meeting, and watching the drama detonate over "an anonymous but reliable source" on another website. I do agree that holding out and waiting things to settle -- and for actual facts to come in -- is the best plan of action. There are already more than enough people screaming, having panic attacks, and basically turning the fandom into its own worst enemy. (On the bright side, WeLoveFine should see a heck of a sales spike today.)
-
Ah, the embarrassing relief of being in a department heads meeting, and catching yourself just before referring to text in the last meeting's notes that's in all caps as "the section in Royal Canterlot" ...
-
@leonkfox Not necessarily. Granted, it could be true, but I wouldn't assume that it is until someone credible came out and said so. After all, Hasbro and WeLoveFine have better things to do than scour the internet and respond to every crazy rumour. If this reaches critical mass, expect a response, one way or another, eventually. Until then, take what you hear with a salt lick. After all, everyone may be talking about it like it's true, but Twitter and Facebook are littered with similarly everyone-is-talking-about-it-do-it-must-be-true threads that have been nothing more than proof of mass gullibility.

@cavatina I recommend the judicious application of kazoos.
-
@chiefanchor Hmmm. If so, I'd also add "and more strongly validated" to the list of requirements for that follow-up report, since it sounds like there's false positives in there.
-
@zach I sure hope so! Personally, I would love to see another X-Whatever flare, like the one in the big Nightmare Night 2003 storm. (Celestia was sure excited over something that week.)
-
@zach Hello, Zach! Indeed, I have. It looks like AR1402 is still popping them out, now on the other side of the sun. It was the S3 radiation storm a week or so ago that really had me excited, though. Solar max is still a year or two away, so with this much activity already, I have to wonder if it will be as active as the last solar minimum was abnormally quiet.
-
@dezzierose It's one of those looks that either really works on a person, or really doesn't.
-
@dezzierose Sorry to hear today didn't go well for you. I hope that tomorrow is better for you, and more of the right people listen! :)
-
@pinhooves A few words of advice: Never, ever, EVER ask that question. It's an open invitation for life to say, "Well, hold on a second, and I'll show you!"
-
@fluttershy321 Welcome back! :) It's like Hotel Canterlot: You can check out any time you like, but you can neiiiiigh-ver leave! (All right, yes, that was horrible, and I apologize to Eagles fans everywhere.)
-
@pinhooves Have a good lunch! Just finishing mine, here. :)
-
@cavatina Good night, and pony dreams. :)

@colfax Oh, ouch! That poor Volvo. :( So, was it still drive-able after? (Hey, we ARE talking about a Volvo here. Though I supposed that depends on if we're talking pre- or post-Ford acquisition.)
-
@misterjaybrown Hee! Good night, and pleasant dreams. :)
