Darn. I was so close to converting another brony. Still, now that he's acually tried it, his indifference toward it is at least valid.

K guys, just a little something I wanna try. I wanna find out from as many ppl as I can, what the best thing is that MLP: FiM has done for you. Has it changed you? Has it made you a better person? Has it revealed some previously unknown talent or passion? Has it introduced you to knew people? Has it reunited you with a sibling/parent/lover? Has it had a more dramatic effect on your life? I'd really like to hear your stories.

@redback It's made me feel less hatred towards the whole of humanity in general, also helped with my usually depressed outlook.
-
@redback Was gonna give you a big long schpiel about the importance of MLP for me... but I gotta scoot to dinner! er, show is bawss... made me reconnect with innocence and find a little more hope. Reaffirmed what was important in the relationships in my life. Made me try my hand at all sorts of different things, been a way through which gender differences have been bridged, a genuinely well-meaning community... I could go on, but I have to go!
-
@redback Well, I may as well do my own account: Let's see...it's given me new hope for the future of cartoons, it's given me respect for different kinds of music (beforehand, I would never have listened to eurobeat willingly), it's given me a generally more happy/innocent/free-spirited view on life, it's gained me about a dozen new friends (although it also lost me 2), it's given me and my best friend even more to talk about, it's gotten me back into creating fanart and fanfics, it's morals have actually helped me several times with relationships and conflicts, and several times now, watching an episode or tending to a brushable has been just what I needed to cheer up or chill out.

Are folks really as bent out of shape about the death of fanon as they seem, or is this largely playful faux-rage? I mean, really. . .
-
@quetzalcoatl Did you miss the #Iwatchitfortheplot part of my profile? ;p And yeah, I read a few clopfics. Really, at this point there's only one author I'll make time for, though. Hotsauce.At the same time, he/she takes his/her time writing so updates aren't that common. Alternatively. Eww, ponies? How can you watch that garbage? They're so simplistic and almost always have bright colors in them.
-
@redback Even minor changes can have big implications. For example, assuming the idea of Spellsplipping is canon also kinda implies that a pony can fudge their way through a spell without having learned it necessarily. But assuming they need to know exact spells also leans towards being a kind of fanon. So usually, I just hoofwave it and say IT'S A PONY DOING MAGIC
-
@retl Yep, just go with the KISS principle. Keep It Simple Stupid

Well, I may have screwed up tonnes in the audition (forgot the one rule of jazz-drumming: Stay loose and go with the flow), but I made it! I'm in the 6th Form revue! http://ur1.ca/5opj3

@pinhooves Really? I had a pretty big saxophone section when I was in high school.
-
@stormyhugeheart The 6th-form Revue. Basically, its a big variety show put on at school by the 6th formers (seniors). And my performance is Benny Goodman's "Sing Sing Sing". I'm playing drums against a backing track.
-
@redback Oh I see

Well, 5:27 am, i'm going to bed. Good night/evening/morning everypony. Also, @redback congrats on that :D

So, I was havin a splendid day today. Got to school early due to perfect buses and trains, lessons were going well, ppl were friendly, was one step closer to converting another brony (I convinced him to join me for an episode tomorrow). Then there came the audition for the Revue. I had no way to play the backin track out loud, and then the big band ppl kicked me out so they could practice. Then it was all downhill frm there. My USB got erased, my DT work wouldnt print right, i lost my comb...needless to say, I think my feelings right about now can be summed up thusly: http://fc06.deviantart.net/fs71/i/2011/201/f/8/mlp___fim__angry_pinkamena_by_sileresp-d413vjf.png

@ponydude2143 Agreed. I'll shut up about it now. I talk about it anymore, and it'll all turn into a new Streisand Effect

@fluttershy321 that's fascinating
-
@macpony55 indeed
-
Im rly wondering whether this new "Smile Smile Smile" is a realy leaked FiM song. It doesn't really seem to have much story behind it, or seem like it takes place in a story...still, it kicks mangoes.
Sunday, 06-Nov-11 21:44:05 UTC from web-
@redback If you'd heard the Cupcakes song prior to seeing Call of the Cutie, would you have been able to figure out how it fits in there?
-
@ceruleanspark Well, I'd know it has something to do with making cupcakes. But for starters, this one seems a little too long to be a number from the show. However, I did find out the leaker is an animator from the show, so that adds legitimacy, I'd say.

@remembernovember Just listened to that. Fun stuff =D
-
@remembernovember Looked up the name from the end of the video (Veronica Dela Cruz). Turns out she IS an animator at Top Draw, where the show is partially made. I'd say this adds legitimacy.
-
Wel, I went through with it, and sent off my first chapter of my FiM/Neverending Story crossover. "The Tale That Never Ends", keep an eye out for it on ED

@princesstwilight Heh, sounds like a plan.
Saturday, 05-Nov-11 21:03:46 UTC from web-
@princesstwilight It'll probably be the same day when I go out one day with enough supplies to last a week, and my monthly salary/allowance, and spend the whole month travelling around the country purely on a whim. No maps, no ideas of where to go, just pure whim.

Godammit! Why is it I always come up with ideas for great fanfics when I'm in the middle of writing one already?!...Should I really do 2 fafnics at once?

@ceruleanspark ok? Never heard of bastion.
-
@ceruleanspark You keep of my FiM/Neverending story idea, and Ill stay away from whatever your idea is.
-
@redback I've never actually seen/read/participated in anything to do with the Neverending Story so I think you're in the clear there.

BTW, I'm still annoyed that I can't go to FushiCon this month. *Applebloom voice* BUT I WANNA GO!

@redenchilada yeah, true enough. I was just curious. Now, I've done it once, and never have to do it again.

Well, so much for the audition. Bloody music department wouldn't let me borrow the drumkit, just because they were having a bad day... I mean, it's not my fault all the spare guitars have gone missing! And I'm trustworthy with the kit! I've been playing on it for a good few years now, and I've only ever broken a drumskin once...
Wednesday, 02-Nov-11 17:31:30 UTC from web -
15 minutes before I audition to perform in the 6th form revue. My performance: A drum cover of Benny Goodman's "Sing Sing Sing (with a swing)". Wish me luck! (Or tell me to break a leg, if you're one of those superstitious thespians)
