Look at this amusing thing! · 4:49am Dec 13th, 2017
So I had a blog post written up, but then the gremlins ate it, so have a shorter version!
Point the first: I finished For The Pony Who Has Everything. It is silly and seasonal. Go read it!
A guy. A guy who writes stories. Stories about ponies. (And sometimes robots).

Don't worry, folks-- I'm not drunkenly internetting tonight, so you're safe from my random discoveries of long dead Canadian folk singers.
So sometimes, you literally drunkenly blunder into something that is FUCKING RAD.
And then it's like, "Oh yeah, that dude died in 1983."
Man what.
Seriously, Stan Rogers may be the baddest ass of Canadians. Which may be a kind of a low bar but still.
So let's get shit all MODERN with ROBOTS and NINJAS and OTHER SHIT.
Seriously that's just a fun song.
Like I said, after NaNoWriMo, I'm taking the opportunity to ... write more. Huh.
Though in this case, it's going to be something short and silly and fluffy and fanfic-y ... and kind of seasonal, even! Thus, I present to you, For The Pony Who Has Everything.
As I did!
Gorged myself silly on various fall-themed goodies, so that's always nice. And when I got home, in my food-induced stupor, I somehow got the idea in my head that they were putting out an open call for people to submit scripts for the pony show, and I could only lay there in bed, wracking my brain on how to write a pony story that didn't involve booze and/or saucy jokes and/or gratuitous Rarijack shipping.
So I was going to post a vid of Dawn's Lament from the musical episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, "Once More, With Feeling," and make a gag about it that centered on seeing one of the RHPS-ish-knockoff performances ... but then I couldn't find a clip at a decent enough quality that I liked, so I now I'm just blathering on the blog function instead.
Internet, folks!
Well hello, internet!
I suppose this is my impromptu writing blog, because ... well, I dunno where else I'd put it. My friends on Facebook would probably just skim over it, and I figure I've got a built in 'fanbase' here. For, all, like, seven of you reading this. But still!
How 'bout that finale, huh?
Lot of stuff going on-- kind of crowded, honestly, with the whole slew of characters. Also I apparently missed the episodes that told the stories of Cleopatra!pony and weirdo-Cajun-mask-pony. And, thanks to the crowded-ish nature, there wasn't any time for Rarijack subtext. Pity. (Alternately, maybe it's just a different writer? Might just be interesting to see if there are some writers on the shipping bandwagon while others aren't ... )
It's the time of the evening where I'm a few beers in and I find myself listening to Andrew Jackson Jihad. Huh.
