    I still came away feeling pretty good, though. That same girl last year, and that whole family, was just miserable. This year, when she left, she was beaming like it had been her best Thanksgiving so far. In her young life, with that family, it might well have been. To heck with the doubters and haters. That's what keeping it pony is all about.

        @macpony55 Then it was definitely worth the time spent putting it together. :) I'm glad you liked it.

        @nerthos Yes, that tends to be the way with me: I'm generally pretty quiet, but then I suddenly get something to say, and it all sort of comes out at once.

          @astra Well, it surely was pretty interesting. People always tend to think bad of good things, and disregard what's actually bad. It's fun that they suspect of bronies when talking with undercover criminals xD

            @nerthos Unfortunately, that's an astute observation. We really do seem to think the worst of the best of intentions, and it seems the ones most likely to gain our trust are those who are the most skilled at manipulating it. Sign of the times, I suppose.

              @astra Well, being skilled at manipulating is really useful. Whilst I'm good at it, and reading people, some ignorants think that I do what I do out of bad intentions. But well, either way they end up losing. The best way to work with them is just walking around them. Sooner or later, they end up losing, and alone xD

        @pinhooves That it was. Not a bad one; I've had bad ones, where nothing good was taken away from it other than, "It ended, so I went home, took the phone off the hook, and went to bed." Just different. And pony-influenced.
