  • Considering it's nearing the end of this year, I'd say the first three years of this decade have been pretty good for me so far (certainly better than 2017-2019). I've done some good work in my personal life including picking up trash, and my petsitting and bus boy jobs, and some good work on the community including pushing for more creator say in images for the front page poll, voicing my thoughts on FA nominations, and making minor edits on pages. Only gonna go up from here.

    I don't consider pushing for "more creator say in the poll images" as a positive.

    I mean giving poll creators many attempts to select an appropriate image, not automatically accepting any image creators want

    Noooo he IS in the case (concededly in its credits) ☠

    Anyhow I'm really looking forward to Trials and Tribulations as I'm really interested in four out of five of the game's cases (though to be fair, the one I'm not quite as interested in is the one I've already heard most people see as its worst case, though I'm sure seeing Maggey return will be cool)
    MLP Season 9 spoilers: Flurry Heart gets sent to Guantanamare Bay prison for all eternity for stepping on an ant evilly
    I rewatched my Top 5 of MLP Season 8 yesterday, to determine which episode in it was best. My favorite episode of Season 8 is… a shocking upset for The Hearth's Warming Club! I felt more positively towards a majority of the stories, especially the ones I already liked, upon rewatch, but I found more redeeming value even in the two weaker ones.

    A lot of why it's my favorite episode of the season though has to do with personal reasons, namely finding out
    why Gallus did it
    but I plan to give more detailed thoughts on the episode especially that section bringing it to #1 later on.

    Would you rather be hypnotized into buying a costly NFT, or not be able to watch any YouTube videos not related to Hotel Mario for 15 years

    The latter, since at least I can somewhat tolerate Hotel Mario. I would never buy an NFT.
    I finished Season 8 of Friendship is Magic a minute or two ago. Definitely my least favorite season of it so far.

    My least favorite is A Matter of Principals, but each of my Top 5 of Season 8 shine in different ways, so I'll probably rewatch all of them to get a definite order. I'm gonna take a decently long break before starting on Season 9 though.

    I just finished watching Season 8. The finale was just ok. I never watched Tirac's debut episodes, so I wasn't too familiar with him, but it was shocking to learn that he and Cozy had become pen pals with each-other behind the scenes. I was also happy that Neighsay finally accepted the school into the EEA after learning his lesson from the Young Six. But other than that, this finale and the season overall was quite lackluster for me. There were some good episodes, but only a few that were anything past that score. My least favorite episode is probably Non-Complete Clause, and my favorite is a tie between What Lies Beneath and Sounds of Silence.

    What Lies Beneath and Sounds of Silence are two of the episodes in my Top 5 (And I watched both of them during the same day, yay!) but I personally see A Matter of Principals as worse than Non-Compete Clause because episodes with out of character problems tend to really have my dislike for them amplified when it's my favorite character of the show hit with the OOC problems, especially since
    that you're supposed to see it as wrong that Starlight is so harsh towards Discord is idiotic because some of Discord's pranks cross the line from just being a normal level troll and hit mortally dangerous levels
    But while I wouldn't say I'm massive on Season 8, the good news is that each of the first seven seasons of the show I felt at least some levels of net positivity towards, it's just this one that's really mediocre. Out of the two cartoon seasons I've watched that I didn't like, I'd still say it's better than Book 2 of The Legend of Korra because I at least liked some of its episodes, whereas with Korra Book 2 I disliked every episode except Beginnings.
    I am so glad I dropped Calc II before it became a bitch.

    When I tried to type in "The Saddle Row Review" on my profile wall it tried to autocorrect it to "The Saddle Row Re Jew" lmao

    "But Shadow Prince, just turn autocorrect off!" Yes I'm going to look into how soon
    Okay I figured out how to turn of autocorrect :dry:

    Ironically, The Washouts was the only episode out of the three I liked, though A Rockhoof and a Hard Place wasn't quite as bad as I was worried it could be. It still wasn't good though

    @Bubbles I've just seen What Lies Beneath and Sounds of Silence and found them to be just what most of the rest of this season should have been. But what did you think of them?

    I really liked what lies beneath, but haven't seen Sounds of Silence yet. I'll probably get back to watching MLP when I'm back from vacation, as I toke a break from the show for a long time.

    Don't say Friendship University's title in acronym form lmao. And it was still better than the other two episodes I watched today, End in Friend and Yakity-Sax :dry:

    I watched that first episode as well as Hearth's Warming Club (alongside the other Flim Flam episodes, to get used to the brothers). I hate those two unicorns. They're always scamming people with things that are too good to be true. And they always cheat and lie as well.

    Hearth's Warming Club was good. I liked how the Young 6 told each-other about their favorite holiday, and the stories were all very interesting and different. It's also quite sad that Gallus doesn't fit in with the rest of the Griffins. Maybe he's an orphan and that's why he can't celebrate with anyone? Anyways, the episode was very sweet and charming. I liked it a lot!

    Friendship University was just ok. Yet another scam by those two brothers, and this time they plagiarized Twilight's lessons and want to expand their resort! Well they did get what they deserved, I expected the episode to have some kind of lesson about how much plagiarism can hurt a teacher. We also got an appearance from Neighsay, the person that got Twilight's school unaccredited, which was also never resolved. So yeah, not a great episode.
