Re: [Official!] Project Horizons Comment Crew Chat thread.

I'm mad about Twilight this season because I really didn't want her to achieve main character status. The six of them together are the main characters and when an episode is Twilight focused, none of them every doubt her for anything unlike any other character focused ep. A Twlight ep is just a cue to make everyone else two dimensional or non existent while everyone defends her constantly.

Also in villan episodes T-sparx becomes defacto leader despite having no real qualifications to do so other than being Celestia's doer of bitch work. I mean c'mon, Rarity is a unicorn as well and can do some pretty powerful magic for different purposes and she didn't do shit last week.

Rarity is superficial. Absolutely obssessed with appearances instead of actually devoting her talents to, Y'know, something practical or useful. Meanwhile, she spends all her time attempting to climb a social ladder instead of, again, contributing anything useful to society.

She's a very successful entrepreneur in a field that requires massive creative and business sense and she fuckin' rocks at capitalism. She's probably rollin in bits.

I'm not denying that she's smart. However, all that means is that instead of devoting that intelligence into some field or industry of actual use to society at large, she's making super pretty dresses! yeah, you can imagine why she's not my favorite.

Yikes, tell that to fashion designers. Let alone, you could say that about every artist, musician or anyone else from an art field.

sorry to interrupt this very interesting conversation on ponies, but I know that some of you play Dwarf Fortress, I'm just starting out, I'm working off of the quickstart guide on the wiki and I need some help, my miner completed the very first section of the fortress (entryway and trade area), he won't continue mining even though I've designated area's for mining and made sure mining is selected under the labors he can do, and the food and drink are running out rather quickly...and a new group of dwarfs has just arrived...

...I'm pretty sure he does XD

That's the same sorta ethic that lead to the subjugation of all art in the Soviet Union for being tools of the bourgeois.

@stringtheory: make sure that the designated area is accessible, it needs to be adjacent to walk paths. Also if you are digging near water, he may have automatically canceled the dig due to wet stone indicating a water pool adjacent to the designated area. Finally make sure no one has taken the pickaxe for military purposes.
If its not those things he may just not be in the mood to dig, as in hungry or sleepy. However it sounds like this has been a more long term problem than that.

Don't push him. Frost aint a bashful person.

just realized I put the rooms beyond a wall, that would explain why he wasn't doing anything...
fixed it just in time for a giant to arrive

[Frost]

I'm not knocking art or entertainment, I'm knocking the fashion industry. They build their whole lives around the assumption that they should decide how everyone dresses, that anyone who dresses otherwise is doing it wrong, and that, to be honest, that the way people dress should actually matter. It's because of those people that you see 16-year-old girls parading around in skintight latex pants to be gawked at by every passerby that comes along, because they've been told it's what's "fashionable". Not to mention the whole body issues thing, where you're a putrid, fat disgusting lump of flesh if you're over a size 3.

[222222]

@stringtheory: perfect! Just in time for the fun!

[Ironmonger]

In addition to what Frost said, what really gets me about the fashion industry is the bizarre things they design. Bizarre in a bad way. I'm all for looking good and paying attention to aesthetics but there is a point where it starts to go overboard. In my belief, that kind of stuff puts people off of anything having to do with fashion, and people start looking like trash and whatnot. It's just...GRRRR.

Those f$cking boots. I don't understand them, nor the need for girls to wear them all year round, and they agitate me.

I don't get that shit either. Personally I'd wear boots all the time but only work boots, I end up being conscripted/drafted for work a lot.

[Caoimhe]

Uggs? But they're so COMFY!

[Valikdu]

On my drive home from work:
Radio woman: "And later on, on the Hollywood sleaze, a huge, but private, wedding!"

What I heard: "And later on, on the Hollywood sleaze, a huge BUTT PIRATE wedding!"

Sometimes it seems like my ears are just full of stupid...

Why are butt pirates, butt pirates? Because they just ARRRRR.

Uggs are really comfy according to my sister. Now these boots on the other hand...

[Admiral Stoic Rum]

Frost your admitted bias on the show kind does not lend weight to your negative opinions

[Ironmonger]

I feel stupid for not realizing sooner that the 10mm in Fallout and FoE is actually 10mm Auto. I was under the impression it meant .40 S&W

If .40 is what converts to 10mm... its not bad... I mean they actually make 10mm rounds I know because the range has a casing shelf for it...it's just uncommon

Okay .40 is bigger than a 10mm

The 10mm Auto is more powerful than it's shorter cousin, but it is a bit much for personal defense against people. It's more used for predator defense so I've heard. I agree that it's not bad. What threw me off was that both rounds are 10mm in diameter and since nothing specifically said 10mm Auto it left that up in the air from my perspective.

@Valikdu
I don't get it.

@Robo: That was my plan :3

And free random info for the people!

@EP: (Nuns) Huh... welp, my mind can get much more messy xP

(Best pony) People, people, we can all agree that Gummy is best pony. Was there ever any doubt?

(Babs and bullies) Firstly: Why do you think I'm so angry/grumpy and dislike "assholes"? ;P Secondly: Come on guys, I already am way too busy with other fanfics to write that. Prolly not first choice for doing that, but tbh, can't really think of anyone here to do it "good"... myself included. I mean, I know some would write x better, and one y, but imo, it wouldn't be "proper" or what to call it... and I am rambling. Not eating for two days then drinking old+bad juice then eating too much food really doesn't do me any favours ^=^' As for Trixie... well, I technically got that covered. Okay, well, not very much in the beating department, but it got me a ton of hate from Trixie fans xP

(Mane 6) Overall, they need a character overhaul imo. They at times just feel too much of a "flat" character. Especially Dash, she only gets to be "the tomboy/rash jerk" most of the time. DESPITE having had what? 3 episodes where she was taught a lesson and learned to be more humble every time.

(shoes) Imo, I wear what is useful and comfortable. Hate high heels, directly physically bad for your health, makes it hard to walk and they break easy as piss. (from when I followed a friend that bought a pair, she was recommended to buy a new pair of heels directly as the ones attached were shit and not meant to walk or even lean against.) Not to mention cost.

@Frost: As said: I disapprove of the unicorn fanwanking. xP Both in the show, fics and clop. They don't need more perks than everyone. So far, not a single thing has been solved by earth ponies. (not including Pinkie's bardic knowledge.) A few by pegasi, the rest by unicorn magic. EVERY TIME. It's just the "apply magic" to everything. The only thing EP's really can do is keep the unicorns fed... and *yay*, that's such a nice thing to know. You purpose in life is to feed, and do all the hard work for the more important race.

@Swicked: (Rarity) While I do find that version of her quite neat. I have to say I honestly don't think there's be much, or any/enough orphans in Ponyville to make an orphanage.

[Frost]

Oh, I wouldn't call it a "lesson" when their method of talking to her was "subvert and humiliate her". Hell, Applejack was being stubborn with the applebucking incident, they went and talked to her. Again, and again and again, even after she caused a bunny stampede and several other issues. Dash is the only one they ever dealt with so harshly.

[Frost]

It's not portrayed as passive-aggressive revenge though. Is portrayed as them "teaching her a lesson" by lying to and humiliating her.

I'm just saying why they'd opt to teach her humility via publicly shaming her. It's not like she learned the lesson, anyway.

Just as Pinkie didn't learn the lesson that not everyone has to be smiling all the fucking time. She was told that not everyone has to be smiling all the time to be happy.... And then goes right back to being a coke-snorting dumbass.

Unrelated note: all of you who've both seen Dark Knight Rises and played the Lonesome Road add-on of Fallout: New Vegas, does anyone else see parallels between Ulysses and Bane?

[Guest]

So this is a thing that exists. I was entertained by it; maybe you will be, too!
