Bi-yearly dropping in!

Hiiiii guys.

I know I've been here and there and everywhere but here. I'm stopping in to say I've missed you. All kinds of crazy things have happened including me becoming a college student again.

I'm home alone and off work and want to chat with the overnight crew so let's talk about...

  • What you are up to right now
  • Best game on Steam right now
  • Dolls
  • Your weird collections

What you are up to right now

Just browsing reddit

Best game on Steam right now

Skyrim. An amazing piece of shit is still amazing.

Dolls

You're damn right I'm fab

Your weird collections

You got me! I collect music that is both shitty and free.

Whatever weird things you probably want to talk about

We could, but you'd have to pick what weird thing it is.

Not the Super Bowl

Sports so hard sportsers wanna find me

PoppableOPPinkie Pie•

You are totally fab!

I'm so weird about music, like, I want it. I want more of it. I'm too lazy to get it and when I do...I spend 90% of the time trying to figure out what I want to listen to. I can't just listen to it. It's a big thing. I'm weird.

throwawayaccount997Twilight Sparkle•

49% of my music time is spent finding and downloading, 49% is figuring out which song to play, and 2% spent actually listening.

I have so, so many unplayed songs.

3
PoppableOPPinkie Pie•

exhales Phew, thought I was the only one!

I used to just browse EQD and just download whatever was popular there tbh. I haven't done that in forever though. I only ever find time to listen to music in my car and that's the radio or Spotify. Eugh!

1
throwawayaccount997Twilight Sparkle•

Oh, I certainly have time to listen

It's just that I've been listening to that one artist or genre for the past week.

My plan for this weekend is drawing and getting decent in CSGO.

How about you?

2
PoppableOPPinkie Pie•

What type of drawing do you do?

I'll never be decent in CS, but I'll probably kick off my weekend with some Rocket League!

2
chuckdart93Karma•

Rocket league is awesome, but I'm terrible at it.

I mostly do digital art with Photoshop, and some paper+pencil sketches.

2
PoppableOPPinkie Pie•

You just gotta practice, hit me up sometime and we can! :D I was super terrible at first, but gotten a wee bit better over time.

Pony stuff or other stuff?

2
chuckdart93Karma•

If you want, my Steam name is my Reddit username.

For drawing, I've tried making ponies and humans, but anatomy is hard to get right. So I usually end up making some sort of wallpaper or building or something.

DaylightDarkleModerator of /r/mlplounge•

I have a small scented candle collection that I get when going through thrift stores.

2
PoppableOPPinkie Pie•

That is an adorable collection I could totally get behind! What kind of sniffs do you like?

I'm bad at candles because I always forget about them, but love to have them around.

2
DaylightDarkleModerator of /r/mlplounge•

My favorite is one I picked up a long while back that's scented as "fudge brownie". It's very strong, but it's a fairly small one and isn't made anymore. :(

Least favorite is a pine tree candle that someone donated to the store I worked at. There were about fifty of them. The whole damned store smelled like a pungent forest.

I would love to come across an orange creme candle once of these days.

What you are up to right now

Literally nothing

Best game on Steam right now

Hotline Miami

Your weird collections

Flags, coins, dice, playing cards, hats, Soviet militaria

2
PoppableOPPinkie Pie•

Same.

Rocket League is the bees knees, pft!

I don't feel so bad about collecting weird things now, thanks! I'd love to see your Soviet collection, that sounds prettttty neat.

1
Sargon_the_GreatestMaud Pie•

Sure, give me a bit and I'll post what I got.

2
PoppableOPPinkie Pie•

Sweet, can't wait!

2
Sargon_the_GreatestMaud Pie•

Alrght, here it all is

[deleted]•

I am currently in bed. Gonna sleep soon.

Kerbal Space Program!

What about dolls?

I don't really collect anything

Tomatoes?

Sounds good

2
PoppableOPPinkie Pie•

I love dolls. I'm a doll, I collect dolls, it's a thing!

It's probably better that you aren't a collector, we tend to waste our money and clutter things. I can't have tomatoes. </3

Nighty night!

2
BlueberryPhiApplejack•

You're still alive?

(j/k)

2
PoppableOPPinkie Pie•

I know, right? 2015 was super crazy and 2016 has really been a ride so far...but, yes, I've survived!

How are you?

3
BlueberryPhiApplejack•

Sorry I took so long to reply. Been a VERY rough weekend/week.

Glad to see you've survived!

I'm doing better, now. Ramping up on tests and work, etc. Hope to see you around more often! :D

2
Kody02Roseluck•

They're not dolls, they're action figures.

2
PoppableOPPinkie Pie•

Those are fine too, but what do you have against dolls?!

2
Kody02Roseluck•

Dolls killed my grampappy.

2
PoppableOPPinkie Pie•

Was he playing with them too hard? Did he try to fit into one of their bonnets and suffocate? Don't leave us hangin

2
Kody02Roseluck•

Let's just say that it involved a ballista, the entire 1973 volume of the Encyclopaedia Britannica, and 400 kilogrammes of Vaseline.

2
crowdedconfirmSurprise•

Hello. Right now I have made a script, and now I'm trying to figure out how to work on the next script and if this script works on other people's computers.

2
PoppableOPPinkie Pie•

I thought you were into theater until I got to the end of your sentence. What is the point of this script? Does it run something?

2
crowdedconfirmSurprise•

It prepares a computer to be able to code for my operating system. That way it's easier on volunteers and other people working on my project to get straight to doing work on the project instead of messing about getting their computer set up.

2
PoppableOPPinkie Pie•

Did you just link a Wiki to a description of what an OS is?

3
crowdedconfirmSurprise•

Yes. Yes I did. It's just standard for me, I talk in some places where people are exactly technical minded. It's just a habit now.

2
Party_WagonPinkie Pie•

What you are up to right now

Listening to music. Pretty bored, really.

Best game on Steam right now

My favorite game continues to be Kerbal Space Program, as it has been pretty much since I found that game.

Dolls

Um, no, they're action figures.

Your weird collections

Don't have any, actually.

Whatever weird things you probably want to talk about

I'll have you know I only talk about super serious things.

Not the Super Bowl

The motherfucking Puppy Bowl.

2
PoppableOPPinkie Pie•

You're the second person to say KSP is the game and the second person to make the action figure joke, congrats! <3

Let's talk about super serious things then, fine, you start!

2
Party_WagonPinkie Pie•

You called my bluff. I can't actually hold a serious conversation.

2
PoppableOPPinkie Pie•

You can't just start out a friendship with lies...

2
Party_WagonPinkie Pie•

I'm sorry. I'll go visit the shame corner and self-flagellate for my sins.

What you are up to right now

Just switching between piano practice and browsing reddit.

Best game on Steam right now

I don't use Steam, but I do play a lot of this Finnish Iron-Age survival game. Is pretty fun.

Dolls

Nah, they're spooky. I'm good.

Your weird collections

I've got this collection of shiny rocks I've had for a decade, sometimes I'll just pull them out and look them over.

Whatever weird things you probably want to talk about

Did you know a moderately fit human can run down a deer from sheer exhaustion over extended distances and time?

Not the Super Bowl

Ayy fam I'll smoke the superest of bowls

2
PoppableOPPinkie Pie•

You just have to learn to browse Reddit with the piano and you'd be set!

That game looks highly nerdy and obscure, how the heck did you find it? How quaint!

Shiny rock collection? You collect diamonds? Daaaaang.

2
retroman000Twist•

I honestly don't recall how I found out about it. I've played it on and off for the past few years, it's a great timekiller. If you're into really in-depth games I'd recommend it, it's probably one of the most realistic survival-based games out there. Plus, it's free.

And, er yeah. Diamonds. We'll go with that.

2
PoppableOPPinkie Pie•

It's ok, I won't tell Rare you secret!

I used to play a couple of browser-based games, but I stray away from the really complicated ones. It's definitely interesting to learn what's out there and what other people are playing though!

Undertale. This game... Manly tears were wept, buy it, support it, do the true pasfict ending, then uninstall it and let them live happly ever after

Dolls

Your weird collections

pony stuff

Whatever weird things you probably want to talk about

I am an open book, try anything

Not the Super Bowl

nah, but i might watch it to hang with my family

2
PoppableOPPinkie Pie•

I have Undertale, but I haven't dug into it yet. :| I knoooow.

What kind of pony stuff do you keep around? What's your family like?

1

figs and posters

What's your family like?

Hiya Poppable! Haven't seen you around for a while! I hope you're doing well :)

What you are up to right now

Having breakfast/lunch. My sleep schedule's messed up >_>

Best game on Steam right now

Yegh... There's so many good games out there, and I really can't give you a single answer... Some of the best I've played have been both Portals, Bastion, Deus Ex HR, the STALKER series and FEAR (only the first one).

Dolls

I'm more one for static figurines and plushies.

Your weird collections

Between anime figurines, collector's edition games, dakimakura, manga and very naughty doujinshi, I don't think which I would call the weird ones...

Whatever weird things you probably want to talk about

I'm about to go watch The Force Awakens. I haven't seen it yet, which is apparently really weird.

Not the Super Bowl

YAY [SPORTSBALLTEAM] FROM [WELL-KNOWN US CITY], GO KICK [SPORTSBALLTEAM] FROM [OTHER WELL-KNOWN US CITY]'S ASS!

Like that?

2
PoppableOPPinkie Pie•

I'm doing pretty okay, how about yourself?

I hope you loved TFA! It was so super good imo. Kylo <333

2
GunStingerDerpy Hooves•

I'm good - been catching up on a bunch of shows and playing a lot of games. Really nerdy but enjoyable ^_^

TFA was awesome. I love how a lot of scenes are homages to the original trilogy, and I really can't wait for the next one :D

2
PoppableOPPinkie Pie•

Sweet! Do you have classes or work too?

I agree, lots of awesome throwbacks!

2
GunStingerDerpy Hooves•

No... I've been out of work in a while, I really need to find something new though, since my benefits ran out, but I have no degrees and am too old for most jobs (not officially, but they can hire people 10 years younger than me for the same stuff, so ya know).

2
MorichalionApplejack•

Hai der!

What you are up to right now

Work or playing with a 3d printer.

Best game on Steam right now

Far too subjective of a topic. I haven't played many games recently, though, so I can't even comment on my own opinion.

Dolls

I think I'm gonna 3d print some doll parts now, and make some dolls.

Your weird collections

You'd just LOVE to know....

Whatever weird things you probably want to talk about

I was a victim of voter/election fraud at work. We all voted on a new plant drink container, and the one I wanted didn't win.

Not the Super Bowl

I think a bowl of popcorn could be pretty super....

Sitting on my computer, planning how to spent the weekend and then work.

Whatever weird things you probably want to talk about

Weird is soo relative, especially on the plounge

Not the Super Bowl
