    1. @xtux345 I'm super pumped for that. The guest line-up this year is fantastic.

      1. @yodelerty Yeah. My Dad (who is not a brony) is excited about seeing the original Batman, and the entire main Star Trek:The Next Generation Cast.

        1. @xtux345 that must change...

          Monday, 30-Jan-12 22:44:14 UTC from web
          1. @getacutiemark Indeed. I'm thinking of showing him "The Last Roundup", as he's a farmer, likes rodeos and watched a lot of Gunsmoke as a kid. Well, that, Batman and a couple other shows.

            1. @xtux345 that sounds nice... how about one of the two-parters? they have "nice" cliffhangers...

              1. @getacutiemark Yeah, I've thought of showing him "Return of Harmony". While he's not a Trekkie he did watch a fair amount of Star Trek and Star Trek:The Next Generation, and is familiar with Q.

                1. @xtux345 He'd get the reference pretty quickly, I'm sure

                2. @xtux345 yeah, its sad how discord had to leave... he was probably one of the better developed characters

                  1. @getacutiemark Then again, we may see more of him again someday. After all, if he's broken out once, he can break out again.

                    1. @xtux345 i guess. are you a linux user?

                      Monday, 30-Jan-12 22:53:56 UTC from web
                      1. @getacutiemark I'm mainly a mac user, although I also own a pc that dual boots Windows 7/Ubuntu.

                        1. @xtux345 just wondering... the "tux" in your screenname (have you tried parallels? it looks kinda creepy)

                          Monday, 30-Jan-12 22:56:14 UTC from web
                          1. @getacutiemark Oh, that. Well, that's an artifact from when I was a fanatical Linux user many years back.

                            Monday, 30-Jan-12 22:57:57 UTC from web
                            1. @xtux345 i am a mac user most of the time... fewer clicks than windows, just more frustrations

                              Monday, 30-Jan-12 22:59:25 UTC from web
                              1. @getacutiemark I tend to find that Mac OS X is a great balance between Linux and Windows. That's why I went with it in the first place.

                                Monday, 30-Jan-12 23:00:34 UTC from web
                                1. @xtux345 yeah... once you get used to it, macs and linux machines are a tad more efficient, imho

                                  Monday, 30-Jan-12 23:01:29 UTC from web
                                  1. @getacutiemark The main problem is that I bought a 2011 Mac Mini, and it doesn't come with a disk drive. I'm thinking of purchasing an external one sometime, so I can use my disk software.

                                    1. @xtux345 I got a 2009 Macbook Pro for $300 from a friend. Runs like rainbow dash!
