    I love watching communities destroy themselves. It is so entertaining.

    To repeat what I just said over on Neogaf: It's like they saw that xkcd cartoon where Stephanie Meyer destroys 4chan by sending her fans there and said "Hey, could we do this in a way that makes us look even more insecure and immature?"

    I'm always scared I'm walking around in public with no pants and that's why people are always looking at me.

    Sabre that is fantastic.

    I have heard that flying dreams and dreams where people lose all of their teeth/have loose teeth are very common. I have had neither. However I have had naked in public dreams and a metric fuckton of "trapped in a school setting I already graduated from" dreams.

    I have falling dreams and feel like I've fallen onto my bed when I wake up. I'm not sure how that works.

    I have naked in public dreams and when I wake up, I'm naked. But that is less mysterious.

    Even if they did, they can't use it on their own accounts, because they're not allowed to have their own accounts.
    In order to create a YouTube account, we require users to confirm that they are at least 13 yrs old. Users who enter any age younger than 13 will be prohibited from creating YouTube accounts. In addition, if a user's video gets flagged and, upon review, we determine that the user has inaccurately stated their age during the account creation process, we will suspend their account.

    So even if all the kids watched it on Youtube, Insight would be incapable of recording them in the viewership.
    So 12 and under probably watch via their parent's accounts, who are around 25-35

    Fun and Games ... and So Much More!

    Welcome! We wanted you to know that My Little Pony Friendship is Magic is more than just fun and games. It's a well-thought-out program designed to contribute to developmental and educational needs. The show's main educational focus is on girls 6 to 8 years old -- but lots of kids from 3 to 11 like the ponies too.

    Between the ages 6 and 8, kids are combining skills like reading, writing, and computing in order to accomplish more complex tasks. They're coming to understand how friendships work, and they're grappling with the concept of different communities -- like the ones they operate in at home, at school, and during after-school activities

    Why Your Kids Should Watch

    As they watch the show, children learn about their own lives through the colorful, four-legged citizens of Equestria. The ponies have very different personalities and behaviors, and most kids identify with at least one of them.

    Why You Should Watch Together

    If you watch the show with your child, you'll see that many episodes help her develop these areas of Interpersonal Skills:
    • Awareness and acceptance of personal feelings
    • Empathy and management of feelings
    • Effective group participation
    • Skills for managing conflict
    • Valuing honesty, ethics, rules, and codes of behavior.

    To a lesser extent, you may also notice that some episodes encourage thinking about History and Social Science issues. These might include:
    • Understanding ourselves though our culture and heritage, as individuals and as members of different groups;
    • The impact of living things on environments, and vice-versa;
    • The nature of communities -- individual and shared responsibilities, respect for others, and respect for the rules and laws of the community.

    I admit that does sound true Sabre.

    Although kids could learn that from Gargoyles too, ha!

    I would like to pause for a moment, to talk about my penis.
    My penis is like a toddler. A toddler—who is a perfectly normal size for his age—on a long road trip to what he thinks is Disney World. My penis is excited because he hasn’t been to Disney World in a long, long time, but remembers a time when he used to go every day. So now the penis toddler is constantly fidgeting, whining “Are we there yet? Are we there yet? How about now? Now? How about... now?”
    And Disney World is nowhere in sight.

    MLP:FiM teaches us about conflict resolution:
    - throw a party and hope everything works out
    - EVIL EYE OF DOOM
    - insist you're right until eventually you just give up
    ...Actually, that last one is a pretty accurate view of mature conflict resolution and a reasonable alternative to "shit I think I'm wrong but I've been arguing my position so hard that I'll look stupid if I switch."

    Pony, you should watch this show.

    Have I ever steered you wrong?

    Do it for me, Pony. For me.
