The Most Amazing Bathroom on the Planet

This bathroom.... It's the greatest thing ever.

I know that general bathroom etiquette is to stay silent and keep to yourself, but I'm pretty sure I'd be blabbering like Pinkie Pie if I walked into restroom like this. 

And I don't even like Applejack!

International Friendship Day!

For those of you following the nightly updates, you probably know that today was International Friendship day. What did you guys do to celebrate? Did your take part in the synchtube marathon? (That is still going I think). Did you hang with non brony friends?

I just got back from the Arizona Meetup. It was packed! It's pretty amazing to see 50 other pony obsessed people all talking about the show and stealing pizza the second it hits the tables.

I'll do a writeup about that tomorrow when I get some more pictures! (My phone was pretty much dead, and I am lost without GPS so I could only snag a few.)

Also my Super Smash Brothers Brawl group after the break! (Which I apparently suck at now.)

How Certain Episodes Might Have Played Out

Here, have some videos I made instead of walls of text that I made!

I was bored this afternoon, and got to thinking just exactly how certain episodes of the show would have played out had a character in them either used some common sense or not been a troll. All meant to be taken lightly, of course. Let's call them an experiment- or, if you prefer, a commercial break between the fanfics.

They're all after the break, if you're interested.

Poll Results: Which Pony Looks Best in Socks?

I think we can end this nonsense already.

I can't believe Nyx almost beat Fluttershy.  Remember 4 months ago when I said OC ponies would be more accepted as our desperation for pony increases?  Looks like it happened... I probably should have thrown Little Pip into the mix too...

The website seems smooth enough now for polls again.  I've been trying to optimize the hell out of it, since the load times before were atrocious.  Feel free to suggest some below!

^Update^ As I was going to delete the poll, It looks like Nyx actually did beat Fluttershy!

Pony Bedspread Image

A while back, I posted about some new pony throw blanket at Target, and included a snippet about some sheets/pillow cases.   I didn't have an image of it though!

For those of you curious about going all the way into this fandom, this right here might be one of the ultimate steps aside from getting a pony tattoo.  Though, I still think a smug ass Trixie on my calf would be amazing.

Comment Subscriptions

One of the pre-readers pointed out that you can actually subscribe to the comments on blogger posts.  I can't believe I didn't notice this...
So if you want to be emailed every time someone comments on something, instead of sitting there and spamming f5, head on down to the bottom of the comment box and click "subscribe by email". 

Yes, it's that simple.  You might need a blogger/gmail account for it though, I'm not 100% sure. It seems to just do it automatically.
