*Ahem* Confession. I'm a caffeine addict. And I mean that in a literal sense, as in "if I quit cold turkey, I'll go through withdrawal."

That's why caffeine is a drug ((I'm sorry to hear that))

Nah, it's considered a drug because it alters your mental and physical state. It's a stimulant. Not all drugs are addictive. If they were, using medical drugs would be a gamble.

Wikipedia disagrees! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caffeine#Addiction.2C_tolerance_and_withdrawal

Although of course I'm sure it's a much milder addiction than most.

What exactly is Wikipedia disagreeing with in my statement? I was pointing out that one of the reasons caffeine qualifies as a drug is because it alters your mental and physical state.

Also, I'm glad I try not to drink too much coffee and energy drinks.. They're awesome every once in a while, though. I still have several Monster energy drinks that I haven't drank yet. Starbucks makes it harder, though. Yummm... Especially now that there's Starbucks DoubleShot Energy... And the fact that I love the taste of espresso. I always have an extra shot of espresso in my frappuccino.

Oh, I misread that post. Ignore me

I use caffeine the same way I use potions in video games: I save it for a really bad situation where I really need it, then when I get to a really bad situation, I think "better keep saving it in case something worse comes up". So, uh... I don't use it at all. 

I have to drink at least two cans of Coke a day. One in the morning, one in the afternoon. Maybe one at noon. Heh...

if you have a Ranch 99 supermarket nearby, you can find almost all of those foods there in one form or another.  Of course, most signs will be in Chinese or Japanese   Seaweed is in the snacks aisle, I think...

I might try to find the Asian supermarket in my town.

frog legs, fish eyes, fermented soybeans, sea slug, raw fish, seaweed, pig's tongue, chicken heart, cow stomach...

Seaweed isn't that weird. I used to get these little seaweed snack packs that had spicy dried strips of the stuff. Delicious.

...but I'm a vegetarian, so I haven't eaten most of that stuff >_>

Tell me where an American can get those seaweed snack things! I want it. I wanna try it.

I have Wii for that. If it turns out to be free or something, though, at least my Xbox360 Slim has Wi-Fi connectivity.

Itty Bit, lots of us here are open-minded, so I'm sure most, if not all, of us will accept you. I was raised not to have prejudice.

I also like the feeling of electrocution as long as it doesn't hurt too much 

I can't say that I like feeling of electrocution ((I'll assume you mean a static shock or accidentally sticking your finger in an outlet)), but I don't hate it. I don't know if it's different for everyone, but static shocks hurt more than the outlet (the outlet feels a little like wind blowing through my hair, except throughout my entire body... doesn't hurt) ... but that's just me

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.

I'd rather be a boy than a girl because I don't like being treated as a girl. 

You're a girl!?
And I thought you were a guy all this time 

..... Then again, it can be hard to tell who's what on this forum. Not like it matters. But I tend to imagine a voice in my head reading out whatever I'm reading, so if you're a girl, it's a girl voice, if you're a guy, it's a guy voice, and it often depends on your personality.

Oh come on people, I love butterflies. They catch my ADD every time! Every spring, it's "Ooh, butterfly!" "*Gasp* Butterfly!" "Monarch?!" I also like dragonflies, but they're only around during the summer near water.
Spring - Flowers (especially roses, 'round these parts) and butterflies. Summer - June bugs, cicadas, and dragonflies.

Ok, confession. I think this new bush that popped up in our yard next to the back fence came from our neighbors' garden, but I'm keeping it because it grew pretty flowers.

I wouldnt mind testing it out, I like testing out new games when I have the chance.

I don't think they're letting us test out Alpha or something anytime soon.

Exactamundo. The game probably won't be very playable until Beta, since the races and ponies are incomplete and will be worked on in Alpha.

Their names get confusing when Hasbro makes toys of them... especially since the freaking mlp.wikia.com site keeps changing their fan-given names to the "canon" Hasbro toy names. Carrot Top is now listed as Golden Harvest there. Colgate is now listed as Minuette.

How about some Trixie with armor boots and a magic staff?!


By the way, I love the armor boots people draw on ponies, especially ones like Trixie is wearing in this pic. I hope there'll be boots like that in LoE. And witch hats.

More Dash, Derpy, and armor boots, yayyyy!

I haven't even seen the anime, but I plan on it. Someone showed me that video when I questioned pictures of people with a red eye and a green eye and countless desus.
