1) Can you stop asking after I say no for the third time?
2) I understand what you’re saying, but generally I’ve always seen responses like that used as a way to make the situation more lighthearted and less serious. That’s why you have Spiderman defying gravity or standing under a bunch of crates raining from the sky.
3) … What the [omitted] are you talking about? Granted, I don’t read much and I rarely watch dramas, but I have a great interest in both music and magic, which are both vast subjects. I don’t claim to know everything about either, but that doesn’t mean I’m not interested.
I’m sorry I don’t read monga or watch the anime’s you like. But I do read the newspaper.
4) There’s no such things as curses.
5) I’ve watched a few scenes, but no, I’ve never seen the whole thing. I don’t think I’d be able to sit through it.
6) Greasel. Of course, I’d rather have a gray as a friend, if it was an option.
7) I’ve answered this more than once. I was never paid.
8) You’re ponying up the wrong smurf. I don’t have the pony to smurf how ponies smurf.
9) Then it doesn’t matter if you’re a changling or not.


1) No, I don’t still do it.
2) Well, I had a job that I thought was a call response team that the employer lied about and turned out to really be door-to-door selling a security system. Nothing after I quit but a few substitute aid positions.
Not that I find myself above going door-to-door, I’m just not the kind of pony you’d want to buy something from. Especially in Canterlot.
I’ll work the last four days of Manehatten’s school system. They start and end a little later in the year than most schools.
Other than that, I’m still helping out Boscov now and again.
3) I’d like to see that scientific report. With its sources. Particularly it’s method of measuring selfishness.
4) He’ll tell me about a book and I may comment upon it, but that’s about the extent of it. I just don’t read books for leisure.
5) No. Can’t say I’d ever want to either.
6) That may be how you grieve. Not everypony cries over losing somepony.
Make sure you keep eating, though. And rest. I’m here if you want to talk about anything.
7) It’s either black or white with you folks, isn’t it?
8) No offense to our friend Twilight, but I’ve had a little more experience than her. It’s a little bit easier to take other pony’s feelings into consideration when you’ve dealt with them more.
9) As funny as a funeral. Literally.

1) You do realize it hasn’t even been a year, right?
I guess because we give each other space. It’s good to spend time with the special somepony you love, but absence makes the heart grow fonder. And gives the nerves time to relax.
2) I would think so.
3) Everything’s fine and it’s none of your business.
4) I understand what you’re trying to say, but just because a unicorn could potentially do something better than an earth or pegasus pony doesn’t mean they’ll be able to do it as efficiently. Even if an extremely powerful unicorn could levitate, they’d never be able to fly as well as your average pegasus. Same thing with an earth pony’s incredible endurance.
Even then, we’re talking cases of very powerful unicorns. Most unicorns just aren’t capable of the sort of things you might expect because of somepony like Twilight Sparkle. Even a unicorn like Rarity is above average.
The only reason the big-wigs in Canterlot are able to sit around and manage others, is because other ponies are willing to work for them. Willing; not forced. Yes, they started life off with unfair advantages, but they used those advantages. It’s not like they get unlimited chances. Failure is always a possibility.
All I’m trying to say is, don’t hate unicorns. If you have to hate somepony, hate ponies who are selfish. And that’s not a racial feature.

1) Think of a good question and ask it. If it really is a good question, I would consider that stylish.
2) Me too.
3) Was legal? You’re asking me to imagine up a world where something that’s illegal used to be legal, but is no longer? Benedict, explain why this would be a pointless exercise.
4) If you say so, sure! With any luck we’ll be at least a half a kilometer away from anypony, if you’re diggin’ what I’m layin’ down.
5) I’m so sorry, Strawberry. But no, there’s nothing wrong with you. There are a number of possibilities for why you aren’t mourning. It’s possible you haven’t fully grasped what’s taken place yet. You may not have known them well enough, or maybe it’s been so long since you’ve seen them that it feels like nothing changed.
I had a close friend when I was younger who I hadn’t seen in a long time. When I found out she was shoved out of a moving carriage by her “coltfriend” and died on the scene, I never really mourned. Mentally, I recognize that I’ll never see her again, but psychologically it doesn’t feel any different. Like it’s just been a long time since I’ve seen her, but she’s still out there somewhere. Her absence hasn’t created a gap because it’d been so long since she had any direct impact on my life.
I don’t know if any of that helps at all. Again, I’m sorry.

Nothing ventured, nothing gained, as they say. It may not have worked out but it was good to try new things. I think it still sounds great!
it sounds like the underwater level in SM64 and i really like it because i love both of these things
Yep. I found out about a new spot recently, and it looks like a beautiful place in the pamphlet. Plus, it isn’t too far away.
Nope. Wound up being too long. Answers after the break.

Why would I need any of that when Tetsujin-28 can get the job done clean and simple? youtube.com/watch?v…
1) I was phone.
2) Interesting… You know a good spot, I take it?
3) All kinds. Soccer is a big one.
4) Well, I gotta admit. That thing did just take like three missiles to the stomach and walk away unscathed.

You can feel your face heat up and you physically shake your head “No!” to yourself. Being the present center-of-attention, your friends witness this in confusion. You try to brush it off as a nervous twitch, but your increasingly nosy friends can’t help but notice your face is red as well.
You laugh anxiously and remark that it must be the heat in here. It’s so humid! Amy strongly disagrees, saying it’s much more comfortable in here than the frigid temperatures outside.
In an effort to change the subject, you duck down a little and glance around. You ask if the others know whether or not anypony else is in here with them. As you figured, they too drop down lower and glance around silently.
The four of you are still at the T-intersection of this hallway that likely circles around, lined on either side with doorways. The center path would take you back to the entrance, where there are two more paths and the door is still left ajar.

krastosthegluemaker said: Can I remote-control Tetsujin-28 instead?
1) Never quite cared for labels. Never really felt any sense of belonging to the gaming community either. If you can even call that a community.
2) Yeah. We talked about my titanic thighs.
3) I still don’t like this subject.
4) Like so many other things, it’s a little more complicated than that. Sweetie had been having some trouble living with her sister before the whole Basil thing ever even started. But she still hangs out with her sister now and again. Spends the night sometimes too.
I think it’s better this way. When they aren’t constantly around one another they can appreciate their time together a little more.
5) Sorry, Boscov. Meant to reply to this a while ago.
You don’t wanna control Gllang? Mobile fortress? Turn into a giant tank? Piles and piles of projectiles? Fire off a pressurized piston mace when you use “a pawerful pawnch?”
I’ve worn my mane like that more than once. In fact, that’s how I wear it when I work as a substitute aid, however infrequent that’s become.
I’d even wear a hat on my way to work! Not that one, but I would if I had it.

1) Normal… Yeah. I guess I am normal, aren’t I?
2) Is this a trick question? I have a Manedroid, not an iPony.
3) Heard of it, but no never played it.
4) All things must come to an end, right? Eventually we have to make room for what’s yet to come.

1) Well I’m asking why you’re asking. Why this keeps coming up. What am I giving off that gives ponies reason to think that I do?
2) You know? I was afraid that was going to happen when I went there, but I didn’t have any trouble with it. The water area in Megaman Legends 2? That gave me fits upon fits. But the one in OoT was okay.
On the other hoof, I didn’t think Ocarina of Time was all that great. Link to the Past was the best one.
3) Alright, I’ll be there. Not that I wouldn’t have been if I was, just… Anyway, I’ll be there.
4) It was my fault for not saying anything sooner.

1) Okay… Am I in trouble?
2) Yeah. You know what? Sure. I got like eight or nine different ponyalities. I got so many ponyalities, I can’t even hold all these ponyalities. I had to use a plate.

1) Ticks. Rug burn. Banging your knee on a table. Terrible, persisting hangovers.
Lot of things.
2) I think this may be stemming from a misuse of vocabulary. Hugging somepony for a long time isn’t a hug anymore. That’s snuggles. And if you were just a foal that wouldn’t be a big deal. But you’re technically older than I am.
I don’t mind hugs. Hugs are how friends greet one another and say goodbye. Among adults, snuggles are for more intimate relationships. And if somepony has a special somepony, you kinda… don’t do that anymore…
I’m sorry, Strawberry. I should have said something sooner, but I didn’t want to hurt your feelings.
3) Genetic something or other. But it’s more complicated than that Punnett Square crud they teach you in junior high. There’s a lot going on, and science isn’t my specialty.
