  1. @tequilasunrise Hey, your fencing is it at that sword academy thing downtown? close to that church of scientology?

    1. @redtie Yep. Academie Duello. I see protesters out front of the CoS occasionally.

      1. @tequilasunrise That's the only reason I know about that Academy. Was part of Anonymous and /b/ long before MLP. It was that that got me into Ponies.

        1. @redtie Yeah, I was taking pictures of one of the protests once and I realized they probably thought I was some CoS goon so I went over to say hi. Whether that helped or not, who knows.

          1. @tequilasunrise we're not paranoid, some of us maybe. We even get tourists coming up to us asking to take photos. We're pretty chill these days. We also love seeing you guys sword fight. One night we saw one of you guys with a light up sword. We thought that was cool.

            1. @redtie I sword fight!

              1. @scribuscooper you also go to that deulo academy?

                Tuesday, 04-Oct-11 05:42:12 UTC from web
                1. @redtie No, I just own shinai and have a buddy with as poor a sense of self-preservation as I.

                  1. @scribuscooper AHAHAHA so how'd u get into MLP? fav pony and fav ep?

                    Tuesday, 04-Oct-11 05:44:21 UTC from web
                    1. @redtie Favorite pony, Twilight Sparkle. Favorite ep, "Suited for Success." As for how I got in, I blame breaking up with my girlfriend and blowing time on the 'tubes.

                      1. @scribuscooper 4chan and too much spar time for me. I'd have to say Flutter(RAGE)shy and either party of one or the one with rarity and the diamond dogs.

                        Tuesday, 04-Oct-11 05:48:09 UTC from web
                        1. @redtie It's kinda weird. Our favorite eps are Rarity-centric ones, but our favorite ponies aren't Rarity.

                          1. @scribuscooper must be some deep-rooted fruedian thinglol or that everyone loves rarity complaining.

                            1. @redtie but then again At the gala is very close to being my fav.

                              1. @scribuscooper have you heard of the dud on youtube who is redoing scenes from the show using rule 63?

                                Tuesday, 04-Oct-11 05:53:44 UTC from web
                                1. @redtie No, but I came anyway. o.o Do tell!

                                  1. @scribuscooper this will entertain you http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ndI73gmYc4I&feature=feedf

                  2. @scribuscooper If you're not afraid of using a real katana, i would love to duel you someday.

                    1. @nerthos How sharp are we talking? Also, most likely nope.jpg. I mean, I've already seen my own bones firsthand, that was uncool.

                      Tuesday, 04-Oct-11 05:46:57 UTC from web
                      1. @scribuscooper Sharp as a stick. It's just that the wooden ones either are weak, or so broad they feel clumsy. And without the sheath, you can't do the best moves.

                        Tuesday, 04-Oct-11 05:51:54 UTC from web
                        1. @nerthos Yeah, a good part of the awesomeness is in the draw... But, then again, not being cut in half is pretty good, too.

                          Tuesday, 04-Oct-11 05:52:54 UTC from web
                          1. @scribuscooper I can't argue with the being cut in half thing. But when you draw at the same time than the other guy, and the blades clash with such force you feel thrown back, it's pure bliss. And the sparks, lots and lots of sparks. If the blade is sharpened, it doesn't last long.

                            Tuesday, 04-Oct-11 05:56:59 UTC from web
                            1. @nerthos Sparks are the bomb, yo!

                              Tuesday, 04-Oct-11 05:59:35 UTC from web
                              1. @scribuscooper Yeah. The only bad thing about them, is that they WERE a part of the sword D:

                                1. @nerthos Oh, crap...! DX

                                  Tuesday, 04-Oct-11 06:02:28 UTC from web
                                  1. @scribuscooper I love being a blacksmith as hobby. I can repair the blade when it is too dulled xD

                                    Tuesday, 04-Oct-11 06:09:20 UTC from web
                                    1. @nerthos Dude! I would love to blacksmith, dude! It sounds so bomb-bananas!

                                      Tuesday, 04-Oct-11 06:09:56 UTC from web
                                      1. @scribuscooper It's a lovely thing to do... when it's not summer. If the day is cold, you feel all warm and good, but if >25ºC, it's better to just leave all the tools and do something else.

                                        Tuesday, 04-Oct-11 06:12:23 UTC from web
            2. @redtie Yeah, this was a year or two ago now. Not sure about the light-up sword - sounds like a Friday night (Fight Night) thing.

              1. @tequilasunrise do you guys do things differently on fridays? Also it was a friday when we saw it.

                Tuesday, 04-Oct-11 20:57:25 UTC from web
            3. @redtie I always like to see the protesters out there, too. I've researched CoS a bit and it's an extremely messed-up organization.

              Tuesday, 04-Oct-11 20:35:18 UTC from StatusNet iPhone
              1. @tequilasunrise Yah, we've wasted so much of their money. The cops are so papayased off at them since they call the cops saying were breaking the law and when they come here they find out nothing bad happened.

                Tuesday, 04-Oct-11 20:58:13 UTC from web
                1. @redtie Nice, nice. Friday nights at AD are Fight Nights, which are open nights for people to come in and spar.
