Let me guess, you wrote your own job description?

Since you're linking to Wikipedia, I'll assume the answer to his question is: Yes.

In other words, your job is to use time that SHOULD be spent working on the game on messing with people's heads.
Regardless of content, that has to be the best job ever.

Lary stretched his body as he expanded his own large wings. He flapped them a few times and turned his head towards Moonbeam. "'Tis going to be a long flight. Remember what I taught you!"

Lary rushes towards the door. "Come! We must make haste!"
He bursts out of the door, standing proudly outside waiting for his comrades.

Off-Topic Archive / I never should have graduated Senior year in high school.
2012 Oct 16, 00:03:02
Here's a touchin' story. 
I went to a high school with... not the best budget. We were assigned textbooks at the beginning of the year, and we are expected to return specific ones at the end of the year; one of them being our senior History textbooks. Say what you want about the books being out of date because of this, but this actually does delay some students' graduation. If you lose the book, you need to pay $80(!) for a replacement. Until then, you cannot graduate. Finally, to make sure they know who still owns a book, they handed out cards for us to fill out (our name and the number of the book).
So where's all this going? I think you know. I never returned my History textbook.
We had two teachers in my History class; the main guy and his assistant. The main guy was the one that handed out the books and the cards. I got mine as normal. But sometime around February my family had to move. I lost a few things in the move (notably my Pokemon Diamond with everything I've ever worked for in previous generations in it, but I digress) including my History textbook. Come the end of the school year, I still couldn't find it. Seemed like I would have to pay the fee or miss graduation.
... However, that wasn't the case.
In the middle of the school year, the main teacher had to get a hip replacement so he had a substitute for the rest of the school year. This substitute didn't know much about the whole card thing, so she accidentally handed all the cards back to the students. Seems like a silly move, when I noticed something very peculiar about my writing.
It was in pencil.
I used this opportunity to erase the number and grab a spare history textbook off the shelf and replace the number with the number inside the new book. I got away free. Nobody ever noticed I switched the numbers to this day.
So, why am I bringing this up now?
Well, last weekend my mother went and dug through my closet filled with boxes that still haven't been unpacked since the last two(!) times we moved. She opened it and found a bunch of old school books that I had, both in grade school and high school. One of them was the very textbook I lost. I laughed so hard at the sight of it, and my mother gave me the strangest look.
I plan to return the book this Friday. Hopefully they don't sue me.
The end.

Anyone else got any troublemakin' stories?

Lary shouted in a hammy voice, not even bothering to turn his head towards her. "You heard me! We're flying! To Manehattan! Today!"

Pony Off-Topic Archive / Re: Hot Topic steps up to help us get better pony toys
2012 Oct 15, 12:48:13
G3, and as a result G3.5, was a complete flop. The horrible toys coming from Hasbro are just recycled from the previous generation to help make up for losses (hence the low quality and inaccuracy).
Give them time. Higher quality toys will come in due time.

Off-Topic Archive / Re: I hate bees!
2012 Oct 15, 11:49:42
I've been stung a few times before (I http://forum.legendsofequestria.com/index.php?topic=2470.0">Read the forum rules.ed off a nest that was hidden inside my outdoor slide). It really isn't as bad as some people take it to be. It feels like a needle. The excess pain is all psychological unless they're venomous or you're allergic. I for one appreciate what bees do for us, and of course their sting needs to be painful or they'd be killed off rather easily.

You guys act like me being kind is the second coming of Marty's Steak House. I was just stating facts.
Hope is a very important virtue. No matter the circumstance, it will get you through anything. Hope for a better future. Hope for good things to come. Hope for a miracle. Hope for even the simplest of assistance. The mental manipulative powers of this strong virtue cannot be fathomed.
After all, it's all that's been keeping me going all these years...

"Oh, don't worry." He gave her a sly glare. "We're flying."

Lary thinks for a moment. He shouts into the other room(s) "Moonbeam! We're going to Manehattan!"

Lary looked back at her with concern and curiousity. "You can't? What are you saying?" He moves closer to her, but not too close so as to not scare her off.

(Nothing to lose Lary. Nothing to lose...) he thought to himself as he came out and said it. "Well, you can stay with us if you'd like." His eyes darted away from her once said.

Lary followed her while Moonbeam was in the other room. At first, he assumed her parents were dead, but after hearing they abandoned her he had a much stronger desire to keep her, but was a bit more hesitant. "So you uhh... don't have a real home? Or anypony to take care of you?"

Lary opened the door and slowly walked in. "I wanted to know a bit more about what you said yesterday... about the orphanage." He attempted to be cautious with what he said, as it might end up not being what he thought. "Why are you there?"
