It's Friday afternoon, we're going to hit the weekend lull soon, and Bad Horse is out of town, so for a few blissful days I don't have to pretend to be literary.
So let's get some idle chatter started! This one's inspired by an offhand comment over in ScarletWeather's blog:
Oh boy, this is a real doozie that I'm stepping into here. This is one of the most love/hated animes in recent years, and the opinions are just that: you love it or you hate it.
Now, keep in mind that I'm not here to bash you for liking it. If you do, that's fine. My goal here is to shed some light on some SERIOUS issues that the anime has, and I want you to take them into consideration when you watch it (which means you don't listen to me).
Twilight Shimmer: i wonder, if sunny and her friends had a collective theme song what would it be

CryHavoc21: ah yes
CryHavoc21: the old "tempting fate" song
Bad Horse is spreading around this fanfiction survey.
It'd be really cool if we could get some people to click his bubbles. Thankies.
Do you have an OPINION? Very likely. Does anyone else actually CARE about it?? ... unlikely. Is that fair? No, but on some RARE occasions there ARE folks who actually DO want to hear your thoughts on certain topics, and they offer you the chance to VOICE them without fear of scorn or ridicule!
... because this week is not off to a promising start...
So "today" being Friday (yes, I'm aware it's after midnight and technically that means it's Saturday now), it was the first day of my work 'week', so let's just pretend it was Monday for me... In typical Monday fashion, things went horribly awry in pretty much every way possible.
I have finished the rough draft of Learning Curve Chapter 4, so I have a little time on my hands. In that, I will be entering into a contest.
Here's hoping this won't be like "One More Dance". Wish me luck, guys!
Normally, I don't criticize the work of other authors here on Fimfiction because I know how utterly horrible I was in the beginning and how much more I have to learn. Sometimes though, I have to vent or my head will pop off my shoulders. This was directed to a story, now deleted, by an author, who is now banned. At least temporarily. The author had eaten a 24hr ban before this apparently for the same story, which they supposedly re-submitted with no edits. Big surprise it got punted again.
Bryan Cranston...as Galactus.
I think RaraRara would be cute, but I'm having a hard time coming up with a conflict to drive their story. They're the kind of couple where their biggest problem would probably be that thier demanding, mostly unrelated careers would keep them from spending time together. Which is a thing, but not a very exciting thing. Unless
I think my next thing will be a FlutterDash story, and since I write them both as kind of self-destructive, finding conflict in that should be a breeze.
In Mykan's Canon, the old Equestria was destroyed along with the planet it was on.....and written badly.
As it is known, The Canon name for the planet Equestria is on is Equus (at lest the Pony name for the world is that), but when Mykan wrote his Starfleet Magic Stories, he thought the whole world was Equestria so he blew up the whole planet. This is not only terrible writing but a stupid idea.
And I know you love sharing your opinions too.
So, Bad Horse has put together a nifty survey that you should all go take, so we can hear your opinions loud and clear!
If you're game, make a blog post to spread the word, we're trying to get as many folks as possible onto this thing.
God damn this is what it's like to not sleep? (terrible pun i know)
I'm back. With a passion. I'm gonna be reading old shit and new shit over the weekend. I will be refreshing my writer's mind. My new years resolution "Stop talking and just create, make it"
I've made my empty promises, my pointless ranting speeches. Short and simple, I'm back with a vengeance, Twilight's Secret will be completed
A little outdated, given that the event described happened last night as opposed to today, but here goes.
Last night, I was playing Rome; Total War on multiplayer and got in a game with three other people, a 2 player vs. 2 player situation (SPQR/Roman Senate ally and me as Macedon vs. Thrace and Egypt). I thought it was going to be a great game.
On the surface, the battle was a major win; the other guys were totally crushed.
The problem lay with my ally.
IN WHICH I ADMIT MY GUILTY PLEASURE
I'm a 3X-year-old dude who likes Friendship Is Magic and Equestria Girls. *gasp!* *faint*
Seriously though. now that I've finally finished my P.D.P synopsis -- eight LONG blogposts over nine days -- I want to get on to something a lot more fun. Stuff that's "So Bad It's Good". Follow me past the jump!
