    my daily dilemma (first world problem rant)

    a combination of fast metabolism + picky eater + procrastinator + reluctant to spend money

    • get hungry a lot >> cannot skip meals or i'll suffer*
    • lazy to cook >> procrastinate cooking until 9pm or later

    honest question, please don't cancel me

    Does Misty have the n-word pass?

    My take: Maybe, but does it matter?

    BABSCon 2024

    Hi y'all, sorry I've been dead on this site for a while, but for any of those who are still out there...I will once again be at BABSCon 2024 in Burlingame, CA, from Mar 29 to 31!

    And I'll likely be in my Twilight or Opaline cosplay. Hope to see y'all there!

Hmm..... #9!

#3 please

Fate told me to ask #30.

RNG, up in here!

Beat me to it! OK, 29.

I'm like the wind.

Stealing numbers randomly.

I suppose... Number 25

9) How many Pringles can you eat at once?

The better question is, how many Pringles Cans can a Pringles Can eat if a Pringles Can can eat you?
I can't remember the last time I ate Pringles. What's a decent number? 4, I guess? :rainbowlaugh:

3) Do you like your name? Why?

Yes, I like both my pen name and my real name. "Mica" is very succinct, is gender neutral (see below), and has a double meaning as a mineral (I'm a geology nerd).
Without divulging my real name, I will say that it is gender neutral and it is VERY unusual. I have never personally met someone with the same name as me.

29) 30) Three favorite boy/girl names?

This is actually a good question, because I actually favor gender-neutral names. I don't like that childrens' gender identity are implicitly determined by their given names.

Equality for the win!

I surf around BehindTheName a lot, by the way.

Three of my favorites are Cadence, Emerson, and Kiernan.


More coming soon!

2) Which MLP character do you relate to the most?

Okay. Here is the long(ish) answer.

I don't like to see MLP characters as individual characters, per se. I see them as personifications of different parts of my complex personality.

It's like in Sherlock Holmes: some people believe that Watson and Holmes are actually two different sides of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's personality, but split into two characters. Watson is the "doctor" side (Doyle was a doctor), and Holmes is the more reclusive, analytical side of Doyle.

Do real-life people exist that are EXACTLY like Fluttershy? Only a small minority. But can we say that we've all felt the way Fluttershy feels at some point in our lives? Almost everyone will say yes.

I have moments where I can identify with Pinkie and her easy-going attitude. I have moments where I feel pretty and fabulous, like Rarity. I have moments when I feel depressed and unsure of myself, like Princess Twilight when she first opened the School of Friendship.

So to answer your question, I relate to all of them. Whether it's Pinkie Pie's exuberance/silliness, Rainbow Dash's athleticism, Fluttershy's anxiety, Starlight Glimmer's bitterness, etc etc.

I hope that makes sense.

25) What makes you weird?

Take your pick.

  1. I watch MLP.
  2. I learned to read before I learned to talk (true story).
  3. I have perfect pitch, but very poor sense of rhythm.
  4. I like living in a city, but I hate loud noises.
  5. I loved anchovies as a kid (and I still do).

(To everyone) Thanks for the responses, guys! Still accepting questions! :pinkiehappy:

Who’s your favourite pony?

5355477
On my profile page, I list Starlight Glimmer. Which is true.

20, if this is still going on.

I have perfect pitch, but very poor sense of rhythm.

Do you play an instrument?

Do you play an instrument?

I sing in choir in college, I also sang acapella in high school. So kind of?

20) How would you describe your style?

I've put off answering this question, because honestly I don't know the answer. It varies a lot. Many times I question the things I do on this site, and whether it is a true reflection of myself, or is it just bred out of some insecurity of mine?
I've been described as quirky, intelligent, eccentric, curious. As for how I'd describe myself, I don't really place any trust in my own self-assessments.


And yes, this is still going on, if you so desire. :rainbowwild:
