  1. I agree with Nevermore. Abomination's insanity is subtle enough to not be overly distracting, yet still unusual enough to be disturbing. It's a sort of reasoned madness that reminds me of the Joker or Vezon.Although I have to wonder, with some of the quotes from this chapter...is his Va Champion some kind of receptionist or telemarketer? It's just he makes a lot of references to telephones and "business".EDIT: Oh dear, is my COT showing? :nervous:

  2. Well, I tried Littlest Pet Shop, and I have to admit that it had some good laughs. I was surprised to see that Blythe actually had an interesting personality, rather than being a sort of self-insertion template for viewers. However, I think that the introduction song was a little corny and would have been better off as dialogue. Also, some of the pets are a little one-dimensional. The only thing the mongoose does is blow stuff up. Really?

  3. I actually really liked the song. The visuals were creative and engaging, and it was nice to hear Scootaloo's new singing voice. Although, does that mean that "Show Stoppers" has been officially retconned? Or is it just puberty? :PAlso, did anyone else notice Sweetie's first magic glow? It would be interesting to see her magic slowly progress throughout Season 3. I doubt that the writers would actually develop a minor detail like that, but it would add interest and continuity to the series.

  4. Wait, people take NLR, Trollestia and Pinkamena seriously? I thought those were just silly jokes.
    Well, I think it depends on the part of the fandom. A bunch of musicians use NLR as inspiration, while fanfic writers seem to only mention it as a kind of sly inside joke. Kinda the same thing with Pinkamena, although she tends to get toned down a little bit. Animators and comic artists are probably the biggest propagators of the Trollestia thing, since it's an easy way to get laughs. :rolleyes:
  5. Well, we have seen Celestia doing paperwork and stuff, so it could just be that she is too busy running her kingdom to do her own dirty work. I personally think that her battle skills might have gotten a little rusty after a millennium of peace and prosperity, if her confrontation with Chrysalis is any indication. Also, she did step in during "Lesson Zero" to correct Twilight, so it could be that she is holding back so that she will be ready in the event Twilight goes nuclear again.

  6. Tom must have had a growth spurt then. :P Or at least I think so...I guess we don't see the entire rock, so it's hard to get a good reference for scale.Also, what was your first hint that we like over-analyze things? The fact that we've given all the background characters names (there's a huge list on a certain wiki)? The sheer variety of theories that try to explain Luna's banishment, Discord's reign, and the nature of the changelings? The number of pieces of fanfiction dedicated to characters that appeared for less than ten seconds in the show (Octy and Vinyl, specifically)? Yes, the special talent of the brony community is reading too much into everything. sarcastic.gif

  7. So apparently having ADHD merits capital punishment in Equestria. Good to know. :confused:Jokes aside, I was a little disturbed by how Twilight simply zapped away the clones. While one can argue that they weren't true clones based on their single-minded pursuit of fun, inability to recall Pinkie's memories, and lack of consideration for the consequences of their actions, it still seems to me that it would qualify as taking a life. Yes, I know Twilight described her spell as "sending them back into the mirror", but visually it looked more like it was deconstructing them and dumping the raw magic used to create them back into the pool.
