Saying "I think people are not quite as good for not being straight, but won't judge you if you don't" to not seem like a bigot doesn't help your case because you're still marking off an entire group of people as inferior

Arguing with parents is like Turnabout Big Top, because they act like clowns and usually when you press them on something ridiculous they say you get in trouble.

Keep FUCKIN my wife's MOUTH

Yesterday wasn't bad because I was able to make a compromise with my dad about getting access to the eShop for a bit to add more money just before eShop cards close for the 3DS/Wii U (and I bought a few games including Yoshi's New Island, as well as Spirit of Justice before Dual Destinies because of the latter's M rating). I know there is a way I can overturn Parental Controls but I am not going to at least yet because that is part of my game of chess. I don't think it's wise to explain exactly what my strategy is in public though.

Alright here are my thoughts on Season 8's first half:
This half, while not all bad and still with episodes I liked, is probably the weakest list of 13 episodes out of any of them for the show; up until now that was the first half of Season 1 but I'd say it has less standout episodes even than it.

My favorite episode so far of Season 8 is The Break-Up Breakdown, with funny jokes especially with Discord, a good heart, a good moral about not jumping to conclusions as that's something I've been working on a lot, and it being satisfying to finally have another fast-paced Discord episode.
My least favorite episode so far of Season 8 is Non-Compete Clause for it being a boring rehash episode of Applejack and Rainbow Dash's competition in Fall Weather Friends as they're suddenly extremely hostile to each other again, except for the Student Six finally having a greater role being fun.

It was an interesting trend the second half of the Twelfth Poll Committee as each of my polls aired in sets of two, and each of the two polls had a similar topic, with Autoscrolling levels/Double Dash mode both covering game mechanics, the Nintendo news/Most needed Nintendo improvement both covering general decisions by Nintendo, and Mario Strikers/Mario entry frequency both having to do with new Mario entries.

The pizza and quesadillas where I'm staying are good. I'm planning to switch to a vegetarian diet at some point soonish but those will make it not quite as easy, heh.

I'm nearing watching everything in the first half of MLP Season 8. When I'm finished soon I'll post some thoughts on it.

I moved out today!

It's so interesting not knowing who the creator of the new poll is now… and it will be for some time. But I plan to reapply for the 13th Committee sometime later, though that won't be super soon. I plan to post in the wiki/forum regret thread I created about mistakes I've made recently even though they're not unamendable

Which case in Ace Attorney is that memed scene where Edgeworth drives in the anime in

Reading chat on Discord about Oh, Brother makes me realize the perfect analogy as to why I very much dislike The Fenton Menace. It's just the conflict in Oh, Brother except not funny or interesting

If you ghost someone, then it's something that will haunt you.

I'm moving out in a week.

Is this I sent to Polly as Manfred Von Karma still too spoilery

Heh, right before I was about to play the Pursuit theme from DS Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney: Justice For All, it switched to the GBA version of that song on the order in iTunes

Well, the MLP episode I have up next is Grannies Gone Wild. Love the Golden Girls reference even though I have no idea what that is

Is there anyone left on the forum who's read the Percy Jackson books, at least the first five/original series?

Well, FWD rejected my application, which wasn't too shocking in retrospect. I was overconfident for even thinking it was 50/50 whether he would, considering there are two things during my recent Chairperson campaign I need to apologize for, one I'm positive is the major reason I was rejected, and the other being important too.
First, my comment about "lumping a ton of people in the Poll Committee makes it a feel like a less important position" was foolish of me, and I owe everyone an apology for that. I got carried away with the feeling of importance I felt due to my role on the 12th Committee, and said something not just arrogant and pompous, but dead wrong. The Poll Committee is about having fun coming up with new-thought-provoking and providing them for everyone, not about being better-known or important, and I know now just how completely erroneous what I said was there.
Secondly, I shouldn't have instantly assumed that an IP adding Gabumon's vote was not Gabumon, and called the IP a liar for adding the vote. I was both definitions of wrong, as well as immature and minimodding, and deeply apologize for that too.

Just because you can think something doesn't mean you should.

I am planning to make three elimination threads when my very long break from posting them ends. That was actually four until Toadettefan went ahead on the exact thread I was planning to make for MLP:FiM episodes of its last two seasons. No spoilers on what the three are though

Discord is starting to shutter again on my computer

Instagram is too

I never knew it was just my 10th birthday on the Super Mario Wiki on June 27th, 2022, but found that out when I looked at my user talk history! (I thought it was on June 30th, lol)

Did you know that the initials of the case Reunion and Turnabout are RAT?

And on the topic of that word in its plural form being how I've felt, boy I sure like not having played Farewell My Turnabout yet and YouTube still recommends "PHOENIX WRIGHT DISPLAYS FINAL PIECE OF EVIDENCE AGAINST *redacted*"

Pfft, oh wait I forgot, no I don't

The Poll Committee might be getting a bit slower now because two of our polls have been decided, but it's still going good for all of us. No spoilers to what either of those polls are about though
