Work on BASH scripts like I should, or distract myself with ponies? We all know which way that one is going...

I am never not tired.

@purplephish20 If more ponies was the cure, I would be invincible by now!

Helping the girlfriend find a job (since she was kind enough to move out of state with me) is all the more difficult since I don't know what she does. "Here, here! Hydrology job!" Her:"I'm not a hydrologist, but I can do it...." The same thing goes for geology, environmental engineering, and a myriad other number of environmental science jobs.... pain.

Man it's been a while since I've been on here. Greetings, everypony! :)

@sonicdash Still breathing here, I think. *coughwheezehack* :p Ewww! I'm sorry that you have this bug, too. :( I hope that goes away for you soon! I've spent much of the day with that feeling that my mind is floating in sludge. I hope you don't have to contend with that when you go in for your exams! New study techniques, though? Do tell! And some quality quiet time sounds like a great thing to indulge in when you're on your winter break. :)
-
@astra Well that's good to hear. Try some warm tea to clear your throat up. :) Thankfully it isn't hitting me too hard, so it should be gone by the time I take my first exam on Wednesday. Yup. My professors have been posting the results to homework, exams and quizzes, so I'm going to write down the answers and create side-notes on the parts I did wrong to remember those mistakes I made. Let's see how it turns out. That it does. :) Think you might be able to enjoy some peaceful quiet time as well?
-
@sonicdash Making myself some nice chamomile tea is at the top of my list of things to do as soon as I get home. :) And that's a very good idea for getting ready for exams, so you can focus more on the weak spots. Sounds to me like you're going to do very well, there. As for quiet time here, probably here and there, but, overall, it looks like things are going to stay busy for a while here. I'll manage all right, though. Always have so far. :)

@ponygeist I'm doing alright. There was some drama with the members and what not. Much of the group has moved over to the facebook page, that's mostly were we do business now. I wish we had still kept to RBDN, but then no one would use it. There was arguments about what could be posted and stuff, people sometimes trying to post Rule 34, along with arguments with meetup planning and all sorts of little things. We have had 1, maybe 2 meetups since you have been gone, going to probably do a service project for the next one in December. I'm waiting until January so the semester can end, I'm still in High School and all, rather boring, but next semester I am going to take a Comptia Linux class. Can't say whether it will be good or bad, but the teacher shows a bit more intelligence then most of the ones I know. No worries about dropping from the Radar, it's good to see you back.

@ponyshock Ouch... well, any large base of people will be divided over something. As long as the group isn't oppressive or a constant pain, then it's not a failure... yet. Good luck with your Linux course! I assume you're going for CompTIA's Lin+?

Thinking about arranging my first meetup. Anypony got any tips?
Sunday, 27-Nov-11 06:35:17 UTC from web-
@pengawill I helped to arrange the first Utah meet up. A few suggestions: divide the work load and have a goal. We ended up standing around akwardly and figuring out what to do.... and even getting there was tedious. Having someone assist in the plan is a BIG help... if you have an all ages place that holds interest for all, that's the place to go... even if it's just an arcade
-
@ponygeist well, i already know theres not going to be too many people there, 8 or 9 at the most. I can only think of one or two places really that we could go. What all would I have to plan? I mean, i know i have to tell people about it, get a date set, certain things like that. Anything major I would have to worry about?
-
@pengawill Worry about everyone's transport, a method of identification, and an event to bring everyone together... even if it's just a roundtable of "X is the best pony because Y"
-
-
If I came back to RDN and @carcino wasn't still here, then it wouldn't have been worth hanging around
-
Thanks again to the San Antonio ironies for yet another successful pony meet. It was a lit if fun and im looking forward to the next! :) http://ur1.ca/64m2i

@princessluna It's like rain on your wedding day; a free ride when you've already paid.
-
@princessluna Cool, looks like a fun group! Sounds like a lot of fun. :)

Is it wrong that I like "Blue Moon of Kentucky" as much as I do?

@princesstwilight ?!?!

@princesstwilight How is this possible?

Crap... it's only 2115 hrs and I'm already kinda drunk... das ist nicht zer gut...

Why do people go to bars without knowing how to act in a bar? Stupid kids... [he said, as he surfed EqD on his phone]

@macpony55 Truer words were never spoken... aside from "I'm not a gypsy, I'm a pastry chef. Those things aren't even similar!"

Ugh... shooting Jim Beam now. I like Bourbon... but I'd rather have good Bourbon

Ah, Strongbow. My old fallback. Between you and the smell of smoked pork ribs my night may be perfect.

Thank you for everyone who has (and will?) beared with me. Because of the nickname confusion, I have changed my nickname from lightningcrashpony to this one. And @lightningcrash I will use that as an avatar, but unfortunately I dont have access to a computer now (in the middle of a loooooonnnggg drive.) <thank you phone> Anyway, thought I'd let that out there with this long post. Thank you!

@cloudstriker I like the new handle. Well done.
-
@macpony55 WELL THEN. I believe a am not worthy of the voice. I must, how shall I say it, make my presence a little bit more known, first. Then, an ONLY then. Will I consider myself worthy enough.
-
@cloudstriker OK THEN, IF YOU FEEL THAT WAY, AND UNTIL THAT DAY, I shall talk to you in a slightly more normal voice

Alright, time for cider. Lots of cider.

It's weird to come back to RDN after so long and see people that I constantly notice on G+.
Sunday, 27-Nov-11 02:35:51 UTC from web-
@remembernovember Likely you don't. More likely it's a degree or more of separation.
-
@ponygeist But I found you, thanks to connections.
-
@remembernovember It's amazing how large the circle you are a part of has gotten.
-
-
Ugh... it seems I'm doomed to go to some obnoxious club and be the DD tonight...

So what's up my fellow goths

@testcase You'll need to add !rivetponies in your post if you want it to show up in the group.

-
@lightningcrash Be aware! There is a new pony named @lightningcrashpony

@pinhooves No, I replied though.

@pinhooves I replied incase you didn't know :3

@mrdragon Might be the last reply.

@ponydude2143 I don't think it's ever seemed "dead" by my standards (at least since I joined). Of course, I'm also so slow moving as to make Tank look fast.
-
@ponydude2143 What? I didn't notice it was dead.
-
@ponydude2143 Looks like you answered your own question there.
-
@ponydude2143 And if you put that effort into starting a conversation it wouldn't be as dead as you claim, now would it?

Don't see too many of the folks from back in the day on here.... @thelastgherkin and @scribus seems to still be around...

!pnwbronies Anyone still around?

!rivetponies Anyone home
Thursday, 27-Oct-11 07:04:54 UTC from web-
@testcase !rivetponies needs to come back from the [un]dead. Maybe it's time for me to come back to RDN and annoy people. As is my way.

@ponygeist Hey bro. I know we haven't spoken in a while, not that we did before. Back at that meetup you came to, I don't think you know how much of an influence you had. Several of my brony friends and I thought you were the coolest brony, if not the coolest guy we had ever met. I should say it was probably good that you moved to Seattle, you got to avoid all the drama the Brony group had of late. Even though we met only once, you are an awesome guy. Keep with it Bro.

@ponyshock Wow, man. Sorry I dropped from both SLC and RDN. What sort of drama did I miss? How are YOU doing?

Man I've been away from RDN a long time... what have I missed?

Look what arrived in the post today, I WOULD be excited, if a friend hadn't informed me that it was useless for Xbox 360 recording. Going to try and flog it off at CEX today. http://twitpic.com/6wg898 !techponies
-
@jinny I beg to differ ,most of my games this generation are on the 360 ,hence why I'm taking the Easycap to CEX to sell it.
