My Little Pony: Madness is Ultimate

I know everyone likes word filters, so install Ponify and this sentence and ones like it will finally be correct.

Nothing in that clip goes against anything I said, it's really shittily animated.

Because getting assaulted by ponies on my facebook profile by friends trolling me is rather annoying.

[Robert McSantos]

That is usually the idea behind trolling, yes.

The best thing on youtube is now 20% cooler (and by now I mean 6 months ago.)

Finally trixie is back, in the gossip colum.

Your desktop looks like it could use more pony.

It's Homestuck Problem Sleuth with ponies. On the moon.

Edit: This is the greatest new webcomic I have read in ages.

I may or may not have registered a pony related DA page yesterday. I also may or may not have a comic up on EQD today.
I guess that means I have to do a steampunk pony now? I'm still not sure what constitutes steampunk. Steam, I guess. And gears? Elizabethan?

This will probably be the only time I'll mention it here, as I'd like to keep the account separate for now, in case I decide to make an "official" DA under my real name later. Just figured somepony (Jim) might care to know.

Victorian is generally considered the more typical era for steampunk. Elizabethan gets more into a clockpunk* area. Basically imagine current or even futuristic technology, except brought to life through the application of Victorian-era technical sophistication. Lots of gears, springs, thick heavy parts made of brass and copper, and of course plenty of steam-power and burning coal. The webcomic Girl Genius is a good example, though they personally prefer the term "gaslamp fantasy" for their stuff. I'd highly recommend The Difference Engine by William Gibson and Bruce Sterling if you'd prefer purely textual experiences. The latest Sherlock Holmes movies with Downey Jr and Jude Law have a healthy dose of steampunk elements in them. And of course, there's this.

The steampony movement within the general brony contingent is already fairly sizeable and growing larger, it seems, and without surprise really. In many ways, the world of MLP:FiM already has a hoof in the steampunk subgenre as it is, given their mix and frequent use of both older technology (gaslamps, coal-burning locomotives) and newer technology (movies with sound). Plus, ponies in Victorian clothing is just plain boss.

*Clockworks. Think The Girl in the Fireplace episode from Doctor Who.

Oh hey, I'd already seen a couple of the other pics you put up earlier! Neat.

Thanks, man. I've had a horrible fucking day, but that made it a little brighter.
