Critique Review: Mommy · 4:24pm Jul 8th, 2015
Hello, everypony. I am the Critique.
Last year, to celebrate my three year anniversary on the site, I wrote a long, meandering blog post looking back on all the writing I had done. It was an interesting exercise, though its experimental nature perhaps limited its utility.
We continue the story arc of "Everyone Is Stupid And/Or An Asshole" with issue 31. Let's get it over with.
Twilight laments to Fluttershy that Ponyville Days isn't ready, the town isn't talking to each other, and Princess Celestia is expecting a grand event.
First off, let me ask you a simple question. What do The Legend of Zelda, Deus Ex: Human Revolution, Legacy of Kain: Defiance, and Ape Escape all have in common, story-wise?
They're all stories about strange people in strange places, doing strange things to some end. When you think about it, this is the bare bones of what makes an adventure story. Dudes (or dudettes) travelling the world, doing stuff.
You don't have to; it's obvious.
Good morning, everyone. After some thinking, I've decided to make this into a series where I get to critique either mine or your favorite villains. Just let me know which villain you want me to critique and I'll do my best to give you the critique that he or she deserves.
The darkness above, provided by clouds grown ugly with threat of rain, threw carpets of shadow over everything. Rotting grass shivered in the cold as the trees stood in silent sorrow, the winds whispering through their withered branches and becoming mournful songs. Critique’s ear flicked at the creak of a wagon wheel, loosely and desperately hanging onto the remains of a carriage tenanted by crabgrass and insects.
As I begin typing this blog, the newest episode, Party Pooped, has just finished. And it was awful. Not only was the aesop predictable, but the yaks are annoying dicks, the humor is weak, and the episode itself is a total mess. Pinkie travels from Ponyville Appleloosa to the Crystal Empire and then back to Ponyville in a single day. Even by Pinkie Pie logic, that doesn't work.
So, let's take a tally of the season so far.

Oh good, something to tide me over during the hiatus.
Sooo... I'm starting to work on chapter 3.
Yeeeaah, I'm really wishing that there were some comments.
I needs the ego boast XD.
Also! I'm going to need some new quotes!
As cool as the ones Dapper and Weapons are making, I'm finding myself wanting some from you guys and gals.
All it needs is to be original, with a date and time for when you said it. And it needs to have the time zone you are in.
