  1. It's because of the sound they make, since they have finer teeth and are designed to cut into materials with little acoustic reciprocity, like metal or plastic. It's typically sharper and harsher than the sound of a regular hand-held saw. It goes without saying they sound nothing like reciprocal, table, carpenter, yard, buzz, chain, plate, line or belt saws.

  2. My Little Pony is a franchise of toys and other associated properties by the toy company Hasbro.

    My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic is a television show produced in Canada and United States set in that franchise.

    Bronies are self-proclaimed fans of said television show. This title has many generalizations, commonalities and associations made and complimented by it, for better or worse.

    Furries are participants, or those intrigued by, the portrayal of anthromorphic animals. (Which is to say, they are animals portrayed as partly or largely human, or with human traits). For more on this, I'm sure other users can fill you in, such as Alyxx, one of our moderators.

  3. Since the mechanism for "clopping" is never thought about (and indeed is only considered tongue-in-cheek, if at all,) I really do not think it bears thinking about. I am in no way interested, romantically (etc) in the show.

    My interest is almost exclusively driven by the art direction, which I find appealing.

     

    Much in the same way any average person might find the art direction in this poster likable but not erotic.

    Unless you feel so inclined to entertain us with a yarn of "Oh me oh my his pose is so suggestive! Mayhaps I become aroused verily!"

  4. So the bro-tension of James Wilson and Gregory House on TV is erotica?

     

    There is a very large disparity between emotional or spiritual intimacy than physical intimacy, and just umbrella-ing all of them under another word is unjustly broad.

  5. Lux, you're mixing up "sexual interest", "lust", "intimacy" and "interest" as an all-inclusive lump idea, which is a very unwise approach to communication.

     

    Also, my mention of Dr. Porsche was the fact that Hitler basically said "We need a car that pretty much anyone in the country could afford on the savings of one year of a family's salary, can go 100km/h (on our new highways), can seat a family of four comfortably, has an engine that can have any part replaced or repaired within one hour's work by a single person, is easily built with efficiency AND quality in the mechanical design, and looks stylish enough to compete on an international car market. (Also, make one for the army that's lighter, stronger and even easier to maintain and build)."

    Although that's quite the laundry list of things to pull off in a mechanical design, Ferdinand pulled it all off admirably.

     

    I was curious if Rarity could pull off an equivalent feat in terms of sartorics and/or fashion, compared to automotive design.

  6. >kill dragon

    "With what, your bare hands?"

    >yes

    "CONGRATULATIONS!! You just defeated a dragon with your bare hands! (Unbelievable, isn't it?)"

     

    Also, you both got the primary reference.

    The Second reference is somebody else referencing it. (The channel description of this youtube user)

  8. It was a gray and cloudy day. The air smelled of sweat, [humid] as if before a storm. The worn paper and scattered trash crunched and crumbled beneath his tattered shoes. Torn frayed clothing, stained with sweat and blood (some of his, some from others) hung off his gaunt malnourished form. The eyes in his head were bleak, as they gazed at the [insert adjective, like "nearby"] abandoned bindings.  About half were chared from long-passed fires, but they all looked as dead as there foamier{?} occupants must be by now . In the background, he could hear the screaming roar of the oncoming horde of those beyond death. The blood from the bite on his arm flowed down the limb, past the mangled pipe he held, dripping down onto the cracked pavement. He then turned to the face the battle he knew he could never win.

    He stared at them, the "Rejuvenated"- most looked either dead or well on their way. Some the first ones looked like beauty in it's purest form. The more excited ones sprinted for him, but looked torn in half.  The razor wire he set up could only hold off ten or so of the "Rejens" but it helped to slow them down; they would be distracted by the blood. All was with the blood. It would only buy a minute, it was not the flesh they wanted. ("Needed" is too objective for this scene. It mandates facts, as opposed to personal details from the protagonist's perspective. As such, the absolute of "Need" is out of place.)  Using the opportunity, he grabbed a bag from off his belt and threw it deep in to the mass of madness. He hated to think of what they had to do to get this stuff but he couldn't argue with results. <-- (New line for emphasis)

    At lest not for long.

    The 'Rejens' swarmed around the smell of the bag with savage intent.  This would keep them occupied for about five minutes, and he only had three more bags.  twenty minutes was all he had left until he would be consumed, and the strangest thing was that he was not scared.  sacrifice didn't mean much, he was already a dead man walking (In more ways than one), but at least he could give the rest an opportunity to live.

    Idea is an 8, spelling was a 5.

    Small note, a Minute [Minn-utt] is a unit or reference to time (depending on its context), a Minuet [Min-you-eh] is a type of classical music piece written in 3/4 time to accompany the French ballroom dance style of the same name.

  9. In real life, I'm a tall dark and handsome computer kid.

    On the internet I'm some variety of supervillain genius with an impeccable beard.

    In my mind, I'm a pretty cool guy that might be the monsters John Stalvern was fighting.

    On Accursed Farms, I'm some variety of know-it-all insufferable genius with an impeccable beard.

     

    At work "[ima] gawnna fit right in, boy." (Rick is such an awesome boss.)

  10. Sounds correct to me.

     

    On the internet, allegedly I'm a giant disembodied brain wearing glasses, a bowtie and a fez.

    On Accursed Farms and various other sources, I am a bearded professor of things.

    IRL I'm a tall, average build fellow with glasses and a hat.

    In my brain I'm some combination of a space hero, pilot, robot, classic video game pretty cool guy and also a bearded professor of things.

  11. That's because you're one of them.

     

    By my observation this forum has a well maintained community because the intimacy for the appeciation of the niche appeal it fufills (There is not much overlap for "people who like forums" and "people who like the machinima work of Ross Scott") and as such, this forum is relatively young, only a few months old.
