I’ve never fired at something this far away from a distant angle. Anypony wanna adjust the aim?
1) I broke it. And no thank you.
2) Yes. YES! I will control chaos! I will control discord! I will be a dark and terrible queen! And I might punch Lucario IN THE MOUTH!
3) I think the last time I cared about E3 was back when G4 was ZDTV. You know, when it was good. For the most part I just wait until they’re on the market.
Wow, there’s been eight of those? I was pretty good with the 64 version. And the original’s Rainbow Road was super hard.
4) Sure, I’m alright. How are you?
B: I’m fine.

1) Wow. So I’m a little behind here, huh? What was that, a week ago?
2) I missed it. Bon-Bon got some, but she ate them at work.
3) That was with milk! You effectively created a milk-activated cereal cement! You also effectively destroyed my spoon.
4) … Uh… I mean, there is so much I don’t understand about this message that I don’t even know where to start.
5) Bon-Bon: As a businessmare I’ve long-since learned to cut my loses. The one I’ve started now is about a politician lobbying to legalize some newly discovered substance that, if produced in mass, could solve world hunger. But, considering the tagline on the back is, “The end to hunger, but at what cost?” I’m assuming things are not as they seem.
1) B: The road to ruin is paved with good intentions. You would be a liability. Any information given to you could be used against us. Also not sure where you got the idea that we’re not doing anything. It is a slow, meticulous process. Not every day can yield results. But the tide can turn in our favor in an instant. What we cannot afford is undue risk.
2) I’ve looked around enough to know that’s not true. There are tons of text tumblrs! They- Well, we just sort of get buried in the overwhelming number of drawblogs.
Incidentally, this message is completely unrelated to the recent drawings I did. It just sort of happened that way.
3) B: I was born in Ponyville; I grew up here. My family moved after I joined CUE and they were told I had died… I can appreciate the recommendations, but I don’t need them. I’ve been around enough.
He was Kwame from Captain Planet?! Oh my Cels, he was wasn’t he?! I can hear it in my head! I never noticed!
4) It does sound interesting, but I’m more invested in real human world sociology.
Bon-Bon had left the TV on a few days ago while she was cooking something and I caught a few portions of this show called America’s Secret Slang. That’s the sort of thing I’m talking about. Why specific aspects of human society, of any culture, became how they are.
Oh my gosh! My roommate was watching this on DVR and I heard them from the other room!
I love this song and it’s an incredible arrangement!
Skip to 2:35 to hear it!
1) Depending on the grade it can be hard to tell sometimes what subject the concept is being dragged into. Kindergartner social studies is a mess. And yeah, considering my cutie mark I’ve spent most of my life watching others excel when I couldn’t. You’d think I’d be used to it by now.
2) Well heck, I still hate reading books. I wanted to do it, and once I got there it really wasn’t all that. But that doesn’t mean I don’t read. I read all day! But most of what I read concerns my personal interests. Dialogs, interactions- sociology. It’s not so much the books that are important, just the action of reading and any road that leads to it.
3) Lyra: I am not Bubble Mare.
Bon-Bon: Quiet down, Sickly Sue. The adults are talking.
Lyra: I’m barely even sick anymore!
Bon-Bon: I haven’t read Harry Potter, but I understand the concept. As for the book I was reading, they tried to pull this “Oh! It was all right there from the start!” kind of thing. Only none of it was ever mentioned! It was all there in the world, I guess, but there’s no way the reader would know about it! So while the characters were like “How could we have not seen this coming?!” I’m sitting there going “How could I have possibly seen this coming?! This is all out of left field!”
Lyra: So five-out-of-five?
Bon-Bon: Morbid curiosity wasn’t enough to get me to finish reading that wreckage.
What? What?! How can that possibly be?! Do they not remember? Could they be too young to know? How could that show have possibly not had even a slight impact on their lives? It was huge to me!
This may come as a shock, but I had a hard time learning how to read and write. By second grade my reading and writing was still kindergarten level. I could recognize the letters, but little else.
And it was frustrating! I hated it! I hated being sat down in a group, constantly struggling as the other students got better and were moved to other groups with similar skill levels! It got so bad they eventually started moving me to a special ed classroom during reading and writing because they could not provide me with the individualized attention I needed.
But I wanted to read. Not because I was supposed to. It was resources like Reading Rainbow that made want to read; that showed me the stories I couldn’t read on my own. Then I could look at the book they showed and at least understood what was happening. I’d become invested. And that’s the most important part of learning something. Being interested in your work gives you drive.
And there was no click. I didn’t just get it. I was always a year or two behind. I struggled on through junior high, high school, college- I still can’t read advanced terminology out-loud. I learned through memorization. Stuff like medical journals? You could give me a solid minute and I’d still never figure out how to pronounce that stuff. But I can deconstruct the word and approximate the meaning. If I see it again, I’ll can separate it from similar words.
I can read. And write? From tenth on through college I got straight As in Composition, even as I struggled in other classes. I didn’t get corrections from teachers on my papers, I got notes in the margins. “I love this part!” “This is a great line!” But it wouldn’t have happened if I didn’t have something to get me started. Reading Rainbow was that something. And I’m not special. If it was that something to me, it was the same to others- can be the same to many more!

…You shouldn’t have done that…
I… Hit-you-with-a-tree-and-it-does-6-damage?!
… We are so going to die.
I don’t even have to tell you why this is important or why you should support the Kickstarter to bring back Reading Rainbow; you know why. So go do it!
Wow! This is awesome! Really excited to see over 82% of the goal is met and there’s still 34 days to go!
“When we meet our initial goal of $1,000,000, we can put Reading Rainbow in over 1500 classrooms at no cost to the schools!”
I look forward to seeing what their stretch goals will be!
Important.
IMPORTANT!
1) Before I found out, I thought it was Johto. Not because it was amazing or anything, but because after you beat the league there, you go to Kanto too.
2) Usually saying you’re sick makes ponies want to stay away from you.
3) Ominous, but thanks!
4) B: Let’s just say I’m more than familiar with Ponyville. Perhaps I prefer the hustle of the city, or maybe the grass is just always greener. It’s hard to tell.
5) B: You can bark up this tree all day.
