My bad, I misread you there. Dx

 

 

 

That's something that ticks me off, tbh. No offense.

 

I'm not above anybody on this forum, even below the mods. I don't want to be treated like I am, either. Call me what you'd like. ^^;

 

You're no fun.

 

JUST LETTING YOU ALL KNOW, I LOVE BEING CALLED THINGS LIKE "LORD" AND "SIR" AND WHEN YOU GUYS ACT LOWER THAN ME.

 

So keep it up, peons.

HAI CIPHER-SAMASENPAISAN!

KUN!

*shot*

 

I actually liked Colosseum and XD, even if the reviews were only like okay about it. I'd love a third game, even if it had Shadow Pokemon.

Although, a new plot would be a nice change of pace.

Actually-

Let's think a sec.

Why was Colosseum made?

Easy, to allow kids to transfer Johto Pokemon to their Ruby/Sapphire or FireRed/LeafGreen. Sure, the latter had some Johtos, but not all, right? So we used migration from Colosseum to complete the Pokedexes.

 

And here we are.

Black and White.

No previous generation contact as of yet.

Possible lead here?

"Act" lower than you? I think it's safe to say that, minus myself and a few other people, everyone is lower than you.

 

OH RAINBOW DASH, YOU ARE 20% TOO COOL. <3

I'm down with that.

Ninty better not make a PBR clone, though. That'd disappoint me more than Rayman Raving Rabbids or Mario Party 8.

I never even payed attention enough to know what you even did in PBR (assuming you mean Pokémon Battle Revolution). Was there a plot or did you just battle?

 

you transferred your pokemanz over.

 

and you battled in HD!

 

If you had an HD television, of course. No story at all. D;

I closed the page right when I saw what it was.

 

I can barely handle Mega Man right now man, let alone the stuff from my early childhood.

 

*sigh*

 

Capcom, I miss you.

I guess it overwhelming to even be reminded of the Mega Man franchise ever since it "died".

My childhood man.

 

And I hate that it died while Inafune wasn't even working there.

 

He couldn't even take his f***ing baby with him.

...guys, hate to break the tension, but should I change my name to Fluttershy?

 

Because the previous Fluttershy changed his name to Major Fluttershy.

 

BUT I DON'T WAAANT A NAME CHANGE. D:

 

Do it.

Ignore any possible consequences that could stem from the choice, just do it.

Act impulsively.

Go crazy.

LIVE THE DREAM.

TROLL BABY, TROOOLLL.

I can't help but think that Inafune misses it too. Maybe one day he'll make a triumphant return?

 

I hope it happens.

The correct singular spelling is "brony" (derived from bro + pony), but yes. I am of the few that believe the entire show is an entirely well-played allegory to the generic college life.

 

Subject A (Twilight Sparkle) leaves her hometown (Canterlot) where her high school is to head off to college in another state (Ponyville). Upon arriving, she has no friends. She eventually muscles her way into either a sorority or a generic clique of friends (the other five ponicorns (derived from pony + unicorn)). Let's just say, for argument's sake, they've already all gotten their bachelors degrees and are working towards a masters or a PhD.

 

A cutie mark symbolizes a bachelors degree in the sense that a cutie mark chooses the profession of the ponicorn, but it also appears with time and cannot be "forced" to appear, much like you cannot obtain a degree without an extensive amount of time and work (and in this day and age, money).

 

They make no mention of any immediate family minus sisters (and maybe a brother somewhere in there) to show the independence that one experiences during college. This is also supported by the fact that last names do not exist in the show (Dash, Sparkle, and Pie are not last names). The lack of parents and the lack of a unifying surname shows how free someone is at college, and how detached they are from the rest of their family.

 

Each of the ponicorns represents a different personality that people may experience or become familiar with at college. Starting with Fluttershy, she represents the shyness that one experiences when one first walks into college (or when Twilight first comes to Ponyville), which is only partially overcome upon entering a sorority or developing a clique. Rainbow Dash represents ego and the sheer bragging rights that one may start to develop in college. Rarity is representative of lust, or in a larger sense, the need to find love or a soul mate in college. Again, most relationships that turned into sustained marriages start in college. Applejack is the traditional nature of people in college; the longing for home, for parents, for high school friends. Her huge family at the start of episode one shows her strong ties to family, without having parents, of course. And Pinkie Pie, in general, represents the sort of darker aspect of college; parties, drugs, alcohol. The usual.

 

Twilight is moreso of a showcase of studiousness in college rather than representative of a personality. I still haven't found an allegory for Spike, but one might say that Spike currently is working towards his bachelors degree (despite not having a cutie mark, nor ever getting one) and is shadowing Twilight in his senior year of college.

 

The fight between the ponies in Apple-something and the buffalo show, potentially, the rivalry between two universities' sports teams. One last thing on the cutie mark parallel; it stated that Applejack went to Manehatten (harhar) to find her passion in life, which may very well represent a high school senior that made the wrong decision for college and would like to rethink his actions.

 

The Grand Galloping Gala may represent a big party, or acceptance into a sorority, or a prom. The point is that everyone is excited for it, but nobody leaves satisfied. Hell, it may even be an allegory to a high school reunion.

 

The humor is rarely solely childish; they made a joke about 'Appletini' once, and I doubt anyone under the age of eighteen, let alone under the age of ten, is supposed to know what an Appletini is (for future reference, it's a martini that is green and either tastes like apples or has apple extract). Much of the appeal is that the characters develop personalities; it's nothing like Dora the Explorer where the producers are desperately trying to aim the show at kids. The producer of MLP:FiM even said that the show was to be aimed at little girls and their parents, so it's not shocking that some of the older generation finds the show enjoyable. It's reminiscent of old cartoons, and when you couple that with things like Ponychan and just the trollish nature of the internet, things like these rise exponentially in usage.

 

I can understand people not liking the show, but I cannot understand people labeling bronies as homosexual because of their interests in television. As much as I would like to, I do not automatically every single person that watches Jersey Shore a complete retard, and the stereotypes revolving around MLP are terrible. Saying that bronies are homosexuals is the same as saying people who are above the age of ten and watch Spongebob have IQs less than 80. It is not a generalization that can be accurately made. Some people that like the show, granted, are either trolls or furries. But I'd dare to say that the majority of the people who like MLP are people who genuinely like the show for reasons I've explained.

 

I just finished all twenty-six episodes of the show (in under seven days) and I do not feel any less heterosexual. I don't feel any worse about myself. And while I can't say it was an interesting show, I can say that it was not time wasted. It wasn't time that I could have spent doing more productive things. The show kept me engaged to the point where I did end up watching all the episodes. Would I have lost sleep if I didn't end up watching the last episode? No. Nothing pulls you to watch the show. But the background of the show is so interesting that it really piques your interest.

 

I never took Ice and Fenrir seriously when they told me about this, but I understand them now. And Nexev, too. They've shown me that shows can't really be judged by their title or their track record.

 

Also, just for shits and giggles, I'd like to say that I am best represented by Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash. The former because she's shy as hell and she's just all-around awesome, and the latter because she's about 20% too cool and her ego is extremely large.

that's called trot boys.

 

Subject A (Twilight Sparkle) leaves her hometown (Canterlot) where her high school is to head off to college in another state (Ponyville).I think it's important to note that Twilight was a valdictorian prat but she gets stuck in a normal college and eventually gets over it, like a honor roll student who tries to get to yale but has to deal with normal college first so she can think straight. Upon arriving, she has no friends. She eventually muscles her way into either a sorority or a generic clique of friends (the other five ponicorns (derived from pony + unicorn)). Let's just say, for argument's sake, they've already all gotten their bachelors degrees and are working towards a masters or a PhD. following this characters like Celestia who have godlike powers are those who actually have jobs.
