How is everyone? And whoever said hands instead of hooves, don't worry. I don't think we have a mandatory vernacular here.
-
@pinhooves (Eyes you dubiously for a moment) Alright, then.
-
@pinhooves Alright, I walk in and hear "Aww, not into the hooves thing?" Explain yourself, mister.
-
Man, I guess I better do some food. Be well, everypony. Nurture your hearts and cultivate understanding.
-
@nerthos Ha ha. :) No problem.
-
@nethros Oh, then I might be being helpful, instead of being an dole, when I tell you that today I stick grenades to things, and yesterday I *stuck* them.
-
-
@mushi Ha ha ha. :D
-
@pinhooves Night. Sleep well, for tomorrow you get to be AWESOME AGAIN!
-
@nerthos Your English is better than many native speakers, which, given how craaazy this language is, is an accomplishment.

Am...am I tagging those SOBs kerrecly?

@brownlinkan1125 Supersonic! Hydroponic! Why....it'll be greased #spambot!
-
@mushi Gratzi. I'll put it in my list.
-
@nerthos Exactly! Me too. In factm that was the point of my lesson; it was about the difference between unfair discrimination and fair selection. Most students demonstrated a good understanding of the difference.
-
@nlghtmaremoon @Nethros I can spend hours here: www.etymonline.com/
-
@nlghtmaremoon Do it! Words are awesome!
-
@pinhooves Excellent, my young apprentice.
-
@mushi Haven't checked it out yet. Would you recommend it?
-
@nlghtmaremoon I can answer some of those, if you're actually interested. :)
-
@nerthos I agree. Not every student fully grasped the concept, but reports like this just make me smile. They also show me how I failed to communicate the idea or who isn't grasping it in what way, allowing me to tailor my reviews. One student pointed out a great example "Rainbow discriminates (against) the wasp and the butterfly for being too small. This is discrimination because size is nothing to do with the job."
-
Speaking of which, got the homework from an assignment where I used ponies to talk about discrimination vs fair selection. Squee!: "The ponies are looking for a new pet for Rainbow. The requirements are awesomeness, coolness, being able to fly fast, able to fly well, and taking the toy from a cat. This is discrimination because the turtle has no chance, but he rescues Rainbow and so she wants to have him for a pet."
-
@yodelerty Well, I'm afraid you're off the chart on radicalness and coolness as well. It just wouldn't be fair to the other contestants. You're overqualified!
-
@yodelerty And that's why you would never qualify to be my pet.
-
@pinhooves Ha ha haaaa!
-
@yodelerty Night! Sleep well, and thanks for all the fish.
-
@pinhooves Which, unfortunately, describes my behaviour when playing against the hopping, jerking avatars of fellow human beings in almost any shooter.
-
Someone sell me on the RP site. I'm afraid it will be full of bathos.

@pinhooves And so, a great victory was earned over those who run like madmen, tossing grenades willy-nilly.
