Devils Affricate: Jan 22, 2010; science unflinchingly pokes away at the unknown and corrects itself with what it sees while religion screams into the darkness and swears it hears an answer

I've literally spent hours at this point trying desperately to catch up with the thread. Every time I take a break, there are more and more pages. Not posts. Pages. gently caress it.

Anyway, I had a minor neck injury today (strained muscle; agonizingly painful but otherwise harmless). My boss said it's fine if I take tomorrow off.

My neck is pretty much fine now, but. . . my boss doesn't know that. . . and there will be new ponies tomorrow. . .

Speaking of Dash faces, I cannot remember which episode this face at 43s is from.

Helping and terraforming are what ponies do. And magic. And friendship.

Not very friendly stereotyping someone just cause they have a Trixie avatar. Have you forgotten the lessons of bridle gossip already?

It's from "The Ticket Master" like the rest of it, but that face is only up for a few frames at most, its right at the beginning of Rainbow's reply after Twilight accuses her of trying to curry her favor. Real easy to miss if you aren't looking for it specifically.

That's what makes them idiots.

The dialogue reminds me of Joss Whedon shows.

She only has one cat.

Obviously she's training the most powerful magic user in all of Equestria to grow even stronger through philomancy because she wants to use her as a weapon.

Sehvekah: Mar 14, 2010; I am not a clever pony

Since I woke up today, you bronies have added roughly 15 pages to this thread.

FIFTEEN PAGES! That's 600+ posts! I go and mention my enjoyment of a relatively slow* but still active pony thread, and the universe takes this as another opportunity to mock me**. And I just can't find a way to be upset about any of it, because

!

_{_{*=Slow compared to 4chan, which is now averaging around 4000 posts per day in pony threads.

**=Or more likely, I've just severely underestimated the power of ponies.}}

And now I want a ponytar as well. Even if I'll hardly post at all.

And now I have the mental image of the ponies dressed up as the crew of Serenity. Thanks... _{I think.}

It's the inverse of Nanoha. In Nanoha, power gets you friends by beating them up with magical girl powers. In My Little Pony, friends gets you power to defeat them with magical pony powers.

Yeah that's what I was leaning towards, honestly

Having it flipped would be nice too, but apparently irfanview can't flip gifs without using some sort of sorcery and that's pretty much the extent of my image editing knowledge

Here you go, sugar cube.

There isn't a thread I've followed that has moved this consistently.

I also can't stop thinking "This would make such a good animated avatar" while watching episodes... I've resisted changing my avatar countless times for countless causes all these years too.

Blarghalt, you seriously have the one I would have gone after first though. Every time you post my heart breaks, knowing it can never be.
