@dashalicious Wa-hoo! #Hoo #Owlowiscious
-
@dashalicious Welcome to the #1 brony-populated state.
-
@dashalicious It's a cute episode. Spike is silly.
-
@dashalicious Do I remember correctly that your West of SLC?
-
@dashalicious Ah okay. You should come to the big summer meetup. I requires a permission slip if you're a minor though. I think I posted the details in !utahbronies
-
@dashalicious cool! My wife and I will be there.
-
@dashalicious Oh I was talking about the giant free summer meetup at the beginning of next month (really soon), but there is the Crystal Mountain Pony Con in SLC too. I think that's another month or two away though.
-
@dashalicious I posted the details in the Utahbronies group, but I don't have them on me. You can also get them by joining and looking in the events on the Utah Bronies or Utah Bronies and Pegasisters Facebook groups.
-
@dashalicious Those are closed groups so they won't show up on your dash I think..
-
@dashalicious pretty sure it's the first weekend in June though.. I think Saturday, but it'd be best to look that up.
-
@dashalicious ah okay. It is quite a drive. If you look on FB there may be some car pools or you could start one and ask for help with gas.
-
@dashalicious gotcha
-
@pony I like water and ball pools better than car pools, personally.
-
@dashalicious That'll be worth making. At least I hope. The only real drawback for me last con was the smell.
-
@nerthos xP carpool xD
-
@dashalicious It's the bane of con-goers' existence!
-
@dashalicious Your point is extremely valid.
-
@pony @dashalicious Over here cons smell mostly of ramen, sweat is only noticeable the last two hours of the con.
-
@dashalicious South America
-
@nerthos The staff went through epic amounts of Febreeze at ours. The smell still reached outdoors so that passersby thought there was a zoo.
-
@nerthos not even exaggerating.
-
@dashalicious *takes notes*
-
@pony Man, you really need to be more careful when choosing which cons to attend to.
-
@dashalicious I'd blame it on being in Missouri, but that wasn't where the con was I assume Kappa
-
@nerthos beggars can't be choosers unfortunately. lol
-
@dashalicious It's known for bad /everything/. Please don't go to Missouri.
-
@thewaifutyphoon Hell, I don't even like being here.
-
@dashalicious At least we're associated with the word "epic" in some way.
-
@dashalicious Unless it's coming to save me, then please do.
-
@dashalicious So what ward to you attend? lol
-
@dashalicious No, better yet.. Where do you want to serve your mission?
-
@dashalicious You'd be answering honestly if you told them your ward boundaries rather than saying you actually attend a specific ward. My wife calls herself a "post-Mormon" (she left) while I'm a convert, btw.
-
@dashalicious That's still a better ration of not-alone-ness than I had while I grew up in Maryland. It's kind of weird switching between being a minority and not.
-
@dashalicious ratio*
-
@dashalicious If you ever get curious I can answer most questions. Most geographic locations within North America fall into a boundary. In the case of a natural disaster your area's bishop, for instance, will see to it that you and your neighbors get help if its within his and the ward's power.
-
@dashalicious So basically non-religious folk and friends of other faiths are still encompassed within some unit of the church.
-
@dashalicious I think it's perfectly reasonable to get along with people who have different lifestyles and.or belief systems.
-
@pony With the caveat that they do their best to get along with your own, of course.
-
@cinnamonswirl We wouldn't want people stifling freedom of speech on either side, of course.
-
@dashalicious That's entirely reasonable.
-
@pony Hopefully the discussion has some merit beyond not being literally illegal to have though.
-
@snowcone I can ride my bike with no handlebars
-
@cinnamonswirl Yeah. Mutual respect throughout an exchange of ideas is really the cornerstone of good politics in my opinion. Unfortunately we don't see a lot of that. Each side usually assumes that simply by holding an opinion contrary, the opponent wants to deny them any opportunity to express themselves politically or otherwise. And unfortunately that assumption is often correct.
-
@snowcone both pushing and spinning a pencil and, on occasion, sending the energy off to take down a fly.
-
@snowcone I only heard second and third hand accounts actually. Shortly after I was born was the last time he says he was able and my mother confirmed.
-
@snowcone I totally understand. He explained how it was a partnership with the objects' energies, but otherwise I don't know much.
-
@snowcone It's fun to believe in some of it. SOme of it seems good to me and some of seems wise to be avoided.
-
@snowcone Some of it has real life applications, but if you go into certain parts haphazardly I think you can wind up in a difficult situation.
-
@dashalicious I'm new here, too! Only been here for about a week and a half! ^-^
-
@dashalicious It's...different. I like how much there is to do here but I'm more used to a small town scene so it's kinda overwhelming and stressful sometimes.
