    1. @abigpony No. None other than the standard ones that are all over the pony confessions tumblr.

      Sunday, 18-Dec-11 09:40:38 UTC from web
    2. @abigpony I confessed! Honestly, I don't do much that I'm ashamed of, and don't really feel I have much to confess. As I'd said before, it'd be more of a statement.

      Sunday, 18-Dec-11 09:41:17 UTC from web
    3. @abigpony I'm trying to think of something *worth* confessing. . . "Fluttershy was my favorite pony, but then I, like, totally liked Twilight more! tee-hee!"

      Sunday, 18-Dec-11 09:45:09 UTC from web
    4. @abigpony All right. I DESPISE shipping. I don't care how common Lyra/Bob-Bon or Octavia/Scratch shipping is or how so many fans will accept it in their little world, I think it's all completely stupid and ridiculous.

      Sunday, 18-Dec-11 09:48:33 UTC from web
      1. @yodelerty I appreciate it for its stupidity. :p

        Sunday, 18-Dec-11 09:49:51 UTC from web
        1. @scribus Fair enough.

          Sunday, 18-Dec-11 09:50:36 UTC from web
          1. @yodelerty I know some people take it seriously, but I can't help but see it as tongue-in-cheek.

            Sunday, 18-Dec-11 09:52:50 UTC from web
          2. @yodelerty I mean, it's not like I *actively* pair anypony, but when I see it I either a) appreciate it for a cute picture, or 2) laugh at it for how silly the whole phenomenon is.

            Sunday, 18-Dec-11 09:53:38 UTC from web
            1. @scribus It's fine. I'm perfectly fine if someone enjoys shipping. There's just something about it that irks me.

              Sunday, 18-Dec-11 09:56:14 UTC from web
              1. @yodelerty I can understand that. It does get to me when people think it's real.

                Sunday, 18-Dec-11 09:57:54 UTC from web
      2. @yodelerty I mean this in entirely not despising/judgemental ways, but I enjoy shipping as long as they understand that it's not canon.

        Sunday, 18-Dec-11 09:50:59 UTC from web
    5. @abigpony I'm trying, man! I mean, I guess I could say. . . "I never expected Equestrian Dawn to come even remotely near succeeding, and for a while I was in way over my head." #

      Sunday, 18-Dec-11 09:49:22 UTC from web
    6. @abigpony Thank you, thank you!

      Sunday, 18-Dec-11 09:50:01 UTC from web
    7. @abigpony What are we supposed to be confessing about anyway? Anything I'd imagine "worthy" to confess about would just cause drama/controversy and everything else would just be silly.

      Sunday, 18-Dec-11 09:52:58 UTC from web
    8. @abigpony Man, I ain't got nothing good, confession-wise. Umm...I don't think this pony my friend made looks like me?

      Sunday, 18-Dec-11 09:56:57 UTC from web
    9. @abigpony Sadly I can't think of anything. Nothing I'd have to say is "controversial"/not different of an opinion to be a "confession"

      Sunday, 18-Dec-11 09:58:23 UTC from web
    10. @abigpony (undignified, immature snickering). Sorry, sorry. :) Hmm...I'm such a shallow individual. I don't have much. Ooh! I cried in public while reading parts of "It's Dangerous Business, Going Out Your Door."

      Sunday, 18-Dec-11 09:59:52 UTC from web
      1. @patch I was thinking of reading that one... I'm guessing it's good, then.

        Sunday, 18-Dec-11 10:01:19 UTC from web
        1. @yodelerty Wonderful ideas, good sense of story, and timing, and a very good grasp of the characters. There are a few very minor issues where I might have chosen different words, but it didn't detract from the feeling of the story for me. Thoroughly enjoyable, and it really resonated with some of my experiences.

          Sunday, 18-Dec-11 10:05:48 UTC from web
          1. @patch Good. It will make the perfect 4th fanfic.

            Sunday, 18-Dec-11 10:06:37 UTC from web
            1. @yodelerty Got any recommendations? I'm looking for complete stuff, hopefully written with a correct use of the basics of the language.

              Sunday, 18-Dec-11 10:08:18 UTC from web
              1. @patch Not really, since two of them are only about 6 pages and the other is Past Sins. I guess Past Sins, if you haven't read it yet.

                Sunday, 18-Dec-11 10:09:41 UTC from web
                1. @yodelerty Sounds as though it may be a touch of a downer, but I can still go for that if it's well written.

                  Sunday, 18-Dec-11 10:14:23 UTC from web
                  1. @patch Yeah, it is a little bit. Very well written, though (aside from a couple incredibly cheesy parts).

                    Sunday, 18-Dec-11 10:16:01 UTC from web
                    1. @yodelerty And I can handle me some cheese. Despite everything, I *liked* "Cross and Arrow", and I'll whup anypony who wants to say something bad about me for it.

                      Sunday, 18-Dec-11 10:20:34 UTC from web
                      1. @patch I like On a Cross and Arrow. It wasn't too special aside from the obvious gender swaps, but it was still a good read.

                        Sunday, 18-Dec-11 10:21:53 UTC from web
                      2. @patch I don't even know what that is. I turn on No Fanfic Mode when I go on EqD so I only ever hear about the really popular ones.

                        Sunday, 18-Dec-11 10:22:39 UTC from web
                        1. @yodelerty Probably a wise decision.

                          Sunday, 18-Dec-11 10:24:22 UTC from web
                          1. @patch ...Why? IT'S SOMETHING EVIL ISN'T IT?!

                            Sunday, 18-Dec-11 10:25:49 UTC from web
                            1. @yodelerty No no no! I meant the 'no fanfiction mode' is probably a good idea.

                              Sunday, 18-Dec-11 10:26:23 UTC from web
                              1. @patch Oh, right, of course. Except today Seth put a Not-Fanfiction tag on a fanfic and I WENT ON A HUGE RAMPAGE but not really.

                                Sunday, 18-Dec-11 10:27:39 UTC from web
                            2. @yodelerty It's the normal "Twilight messed up a spell" beginning and they end up in a parallel universe where all the ponies genders are swapped. Hilarity ensues as they try to get back home.

                              Sunday, 18-Dec-11 10:27:34 UTC from web
                              1. @fallinwinter Um... yeah... That sounds... great...

                                Sunday, 18-Dec-11 10:29:06 UTC from web
                                1. @yodelerty Well the content itself is not for everyone, but the writing itself was pretty well done.

                                  Sunday, 18-Dec-11 10:30:28 UTC from web
                                  1. @fallinwinter @yodelrty That's pretty much the best description. Don't know why I liked it, but I did.

                                    Sunday, 18-Dec-11 10:32:23 UTC from web
                                  2. @fallinwinter Oh, alright. I probably won't ever read it. >_>

                                    Sunday, 18-Dec-11 10:33:14 UTC from web
              2. @patch A New Breed is pretty good. It's kind of like superhero stuff and takes place after the "mane six" pass on, but the characters are likeable in my opinion at least.

                Sunday, 18-Dec-11 10:13:39 UTC from web
                1. @fallinwinter Cool, thanks. How would you rate the writing on it? I have a real hard time getting into a story if I have to look past spelling mistakes and weird grammar and stuff.

                  Sunday, 18-Dec-11 10:18:58 UTC from web
                  1. @patch There are a few here and there, but it's secluded instances and don't destroy the story or anything.

                    Sunday, 18-Dec-11 10:19:54 UTC from web
                    1. @fallinwinter Roger. I can handle that. Evrey pony makes mistake.

                      Sunday, 18-Dec-11 10:21:15 UTC from web
    11. @abigpony I move away from the mic to breathe? On a more serious note similar to Patch, "I cried a little at one point while reading Fallout: Equestria"? I've really can't think of much.

      Sunday, 18-Dec-11 10:04:36 UTC from web
      1. @fallinwinter I do the same thing! With the mic, that is.

        Sunday, 18-Dec-11 10:09:26 UTC from web
    12. @abigpony I cried several times during Fallout: Equestria =P

      Sunday, 18-Dec-11 10:08:43 UTC from web
    13. @abigpony Well I have something, but it might make things awkward around here =P

      Sunday, 18-Dec-11 10:11:39 UTC from web
      1. @tenmihara YES BRING ON THE AWKWARD

        Sunday, 18-Dec-11 10:12:08 UTC from web
        1. @yodelerty not in public =P At least, not right now

          Sunday, 18-Dec-11 10:12:57 UTC from web
          1. @tenmihara C'mon. # cares not for the awkward levels.

            Sunday, 18-Dec-11 10:14:38 UTC from web
      2. @tenmihara As long as it's PG-13. . .

        Sunday, 18-Dec-11 10:12:25 UTC from web
      3. @tenmihara Well, don't say anything if you don't want to. We love you regardless.

        Sunday, 18-Dec-11 10:14:49 UTC from web
        1. @patch @yodelerty Then I will be deliberately vague =P I have a bit of a crush on somepony here on RDN

          Sunday, 18-Dec-11 10:19:09 UTC from web
          1. @tenmihara Oh, now I can see how that would be awkward. :P

            Sunday, 18-Dec-11 10:20:55 UTC from web
    14. @abigpony @yodelerty I would if they weren't on right now <.<

      Sunday, 18-Dec-11 10:23:16 UTC from web
      1. @tenmihara Hoho. The plot thickens.

        Sunday, 18-Dec-11 10:24:31 UTC from web
    15. @abigpony Well it worked for Rarity.

      Sunday, 18-Dec-11 10:25:49 UTC from web
    16. @abigpony @yodelerty Ooh, can I get in on that? I give myself 1:1 odds that I know for sure who it is

      Sunday, 18-Dec-11 10:29:23 UTC from web
      1. @tenmihara If you give yourself 1:1 odds then you'll receive 1x your money back. THINK AHEAD SON

        Sunday, 18-Dec-11 10:31:04 UTC from web
        1. @yodelerty Well any bet other than that wouldn't really be fair now would it?

          Sunday, 18-Dec-11 10:31:55 UTC from web
    17. @abigpony I fail at gambling =P
