Spore was great, especially with Galactic Adventures. I was still hoping for the slightly more scientific kind of game they originally were going for and it'd be nice if they revisited the idea.

So far we know they eat every ingredient of pizza but the meat. It's entirely possible that they have pizza.
Has anyone else noticed that they used to be more intent on ponies eating straight up plants like grass and flowers but more recently it's been food people eat too?

I'm legitimately mentally handicapped only to the extent of not naturally having social skills. You could argue that nobody does, but people are essentially social creatures. That's what I didn't come with, and I've been learning social norms for my entire life that seem obvious to everyone else. Once a girlfriend asked me if I loved my computer more than her I didn't get what was wrong with saying "yes".

I was like.. 12. I didn't know about deleting browsing history.

Sometimes I look back on when I was 12-13 on the Internet, and I think "Oh my god. I used to be a noob."

For a while I changed my internet name every year as I would look back at all the noobish mistakes I've made and not want to be associated with them.
I've become pretty dedicated to this one though.

Way back in 4th grade I had a spherical teacher who hated me. She'd find anything she could to justify her random punishment, which was usually writing hundreds of lines. I kept track of how many I did and at the end of that year it came out to be around 4,000.
That woman was literally spherical.

Sometimes I just sit and think "I'm one decision away from doing x"
x being anything at all, like throwing a chair through a window, taking my shirt off or yelling random things.

The idea behind cupcakes could have made a really good story, but it was mostly a bunch of   "IMMA CHOP YOU UP "   *blood n guts*   *abrupt ending*  and it had spelling and grammatical errors sprinkled throughout the whole thing. It didn't even accomplish the general objective of its genre to engross you in the drama.

Maybe he means like those prank things where if you touch it, it'll send electricity into your hand. I hate that feeling. It doesn't hurt, but still, I hate that buzzing feeling of electricity flowing into me.

Those prank things are weird. I mean like you accidentally discharge a large battery and all your hair stands up, or you get shocked by at outlet (not sticking your hand in direct contact with the metal, that's idiotic) and your muscles retract. Once I was holding a large adapter end in my mouth when building a custom something or another and I thought it was unplugged. It wasn't and my tongue went numb.

Another time I set something up so than when I was holding a cord in each hand the audio signal is passed through me to a speaker. It was pretty cool, but my fingers felt too weird to hold it for very long.

Yeah, History is mah favourite subject because the teacher I have is entertaining, thanks for that though.
Also, even though I'm not suicidal, I have thoughts of it, I HAVE attempted suicide quite a few times and thankfully
they all failed. Depression still makes me cry everyday though.
I stick around this forum to talk to other bronies because honestly you're all the nicest people I've met,
the brony I met in my grade doesn't talk to me, he plays games and talks to his other friends which always makes me left out of things.
That's why I want to join the year 11 bronies I saw, it's just that they're finishing school in a year so our friendship may not last long. 

I'm in 11th grade going to 12 right now and I don't fear losing my friends, thanks to the internet.
If you can survive like that I recommend getting some good friends added on steam. It's like Skype with the voice chat and normal chat and notifications, but you trade video for games.
There's a thread for steam accounts, but if you ask someone for theirs they'll probably give it and they'll also be expecting an invitation when it comes.

I'm male
but on a scale of 1 to 10, 1 being super macho dude and 10 being ridiculously feminine I'm probably a 4
[1]...2...3...[me]...5...6...7...8...9...[10]
and considering I renounced love as it applies to relationships I'm pretty close to being genderless for all intents and purposes.

My actual confession is that I'm terrified of heights.
I also like the feeling of electrocution as long as it doesn't hurt too much

When I was in ninth grade I had a history teacher who told us

"I know high school isn't fun. In fact, right now you're at the lowest of the low. The bottom of the through, really. But don't worry, everything after this is a whole lot better, just make sure you make it through for now because we have some history to learn."

I don't think there's anyone I respect more than him considering his extensive background in being a soldier, ambassador, historian and a generally good person.

I used to be suicidal, I still have a scar on my wrist. All I did to get out of it was decide it was idiotic. I'd rather learn survival skills and live in the mountains than commit suicide if the decision came down on me again.

As for brony friends, I only have a couple in person and a lot on the internet. I hardly see my best in the meatspace anymore, but we play games and voice chat a lot. I don't know how to make a good friendship in such a short period of time, but I'm sure it's possible.

Very cute episode, 8/10
I knew it was Rainbow Dash from the start, knowing her character and all. It was the eyelashes that got me thinking there were more involved.

My heart was wrenched out and destroyed by Fluttershy crying 

I love how mean spike is. I'm surprised he and Angel don't get along better.

You'd also think that Cloudsdale would be prone to drifting. Aside from logic how else can a tornado reach it from such far apart places?
Or is Equestria the size of a small island?

That scene nearly brought me to tears .

I can relate to the teasing she went through, even if my experience was more akin to most theories of Twilight's (I.E Half of it is not understanding people/social interaction, Half is Bullying because of that) but those flashbacks of hers and lasting impact was spot on.

Still...That  scene...caught me completely by surprise.

Once a bunch of kids were trying to beat me up or something. One of those people who watches over everyone at recess in elementary school came over and thought someone really was being hurt. When they explained "it's just Andrew" they guy left. Luckily I got away and wasn't injured...

It didn't scar me too badly, but I still relate to characters that have gone through that.
