I usually like TV because I can see what's going on. I can get slightly confused by books, such as forgetting where someone is after they're mentioned earlier in the scene. I am an INCREDIBLY avid reader just the same.
Hello. I came across the PPC at the recommendation of a relative. Because of my love of good fanfiction (and near nauseous reaction to badfic), I decided to come here.
I am just a little bit crazy, and that's the only warning you get. "Not Him Again" is what people say when I walk in the room. My favorite canons are ˆNarutoˆ and ˆAvatar: the Last Airbenderˆ, although I know enough about ˆLord of the Ringsˆ, ˆDoctor Whoˆ, and Narnia to find Sues and other painful things. I am also what you may call a "brony," although I will not answer to the title.
Why is Matt Smith leaving Doctor Who?
Is there any cake?
Welcome to the PPC. We share the Naruto fandom, and I like Narnia, A:TLA and LoTR well enough too. :)
Here, have an empty sealing scroll and some Generic Ninja Weapons. Here's some chocolate cake too, since you asked, but I think something happened to the taste when I mistakenly added some chili sauce... maybe it won't change too much?
I can't really bake well, sorry. ^-^"
So long as there's no glitter in there, I'm good.
Okay, maybe not.
Your opinion on Korra, friend?
I haven't gotten to watch it yet (sad face). But I will some day! It looks good.
I will say nothing on Korra, save that I think it is good. Who's your favorite A:TLA character? Favorite episode?
Well, unless Vimeo turns out not to work for you. The site doesn't on some computers, and I don't know why.

The episodes are all out of order, but since it's labeled 101 for the first episode, 102 for the second, and so on, it's just a matter of unscrambling them.
Enjoy!
Well, well, well, it appears that the prophecies of the floodtide have diminished to a small stream of occasional new arrivals. I may need to get a new oracle sphere, since this one's either broken or messing with me again.
Now, time for gifts! Have an extra-dimensional ninja outfit! Phasing in and out of reality should make sneaking around unseen and unheard much simpler! Just don't stay out-of-phase too long, or you could attract the attention of... well, let's just say the sort of people we don't want invading our reality again.
Do you mean like...... me, hyuuuuuman?
No, Missingo, I do not. You're a nuisance, if anything. I should've remembered that magic guns didn't work on your namesake either.
A mistake that will not be your last, hyuuuuuman.
Excuse me a moment, I have a trouble-making mini to discipline.
You can't see me... Oh wait, you can?
It seems that we share the Avatar and Narnia fandoms, and will both recoil at the thought of being called bronies (although I am actually not a brony, while you just won't respond to the title). And, being that this is the PPC, everybody is either a Tolkien fan or knows enough to avoid running afoul of them (I am the latter).
But enough rambling about me, you need a welcome gift! So, my usual gift for MLP fans (assuming I have another one in stock):
*rummages through bag of holding*
Yes I do!
*pulls out a Pokeball*
Have a Rapidash! Not a pony by any means; it only resembles Twilight Sparkle from one scene of MLP. It's a Fire-type Pokemon, good for deterring anyone who'd dare call you a brony! Keep it away from the Flowers, though: they hate fire.
PS: Why do people say "Not him again" when you walk in a room? Are you that annoying?
PPS: In case you are a Phoenix Wright fan (and even if you are not), I highly recommend that you check out Turnabout Storm, a Phoenix Wright/MLP crossover on YouTube.
Yes, I know what a Rapidash is, and which scene. Thanks!
They don't say it because I'm annoying, they say it because I'm crazy.
I don't really know that much about Phoenix Wright, other than there are lawyers. But I have heard of a crossover. That might be the one.
Hi, have some fudge!
Have a Schrodinger’s cake. Does that answer your question?
Okay, seriously. What is this thing?
All plovers courtesy Fluttershy.
That's a bird, right? Is that why this one is sitting on my head?
Anyways, thank you Fluttershy.
Greetings, new friend! Have a box set of shurikens!
Ninja weapons! Stereotypical ninja weapons, true, but ninja weapons!
Welcome to the board! Have some of my hydrophobic water to commemorate the event. Wash your hands after handling it!
That was definitely one of the weirder experiences of my life...
Welcome to the Board!
Please forgive me if this is cultural ignorance, but may I ask why you're using ^ and ¨ marks for titles/emphasis? I've never even seen the second mark before, so I'm very curious about what that is. (Kudos for offsetting titles at all, though! It's a long-term campaign of mine to see italics and quotation marks used properly for that on the wiki.)
Also, who's your relative? Are they a current Boarder?
~Neshomeh, letting curiosity get the better of her.
The ˆ and ¨marks are what my computer is doing instead of italics and underlines. I'm not entirely sure why.
Yes, my relative is a current boarder, although he hasn't started sporking yet. I think he still needs permission.
I have no idea why a computer would do that, either. Are you trying to use HTML—that is, <i> </i> and <u> </u> ?
Hmm, I was looking for a screen name there. Is it a secret for some reason?
~Neshomeh
I have no idea. Is what a secret?
The way you phrased your previous posts, it had looked as though you were being evasive about which of the Boarders you were related to.
Hi. Good to see you. We're all crazy at the PPC- pretty sure that's kind of the point. /as a response to the "near nauseous reaction to badfic", I actually almost did throw up one time while trying to read the entirety of My Immortal/
Hm.....actually, we don't share any fandoms, really. I know a bit about Avatar and Narnia, and then I know Dr. Who (not because I've actually seen it, but because my friends are all Whovians). I'm a Potterhead with PR tendencies.
I don't have cake, but I do have some bleepolate ice cream.
I actually don't know very much of anything about Harry Potter. It's just not that big in our house.
... And that made ˆnoˆ sense, didn't it.
I know what you mean. It's like my boyfriend and who-ville.
It was famously the town that the Santa Claus-impersonating Grinch invaded in the How The Grinch Stole Christmas book and television special, but it's shown up elsewhere.
I don't know why Pauline07 mentioned it there, though. Perhaps her boyfriend has an overall dislike or weariness of animated Christmas specials. Can't say I blame him all that much. One can only take so many years of claymation reindeer, winter warlocks that became evil because nobody ever gave them toy trains, and snowmen that move around despite having no feet r other means of locomotion before one gets bored of them.
They're still holiday classics, or at least most of them are, but enough replay can make anything look more tiring to watch.
Did you see the one really psychedelic (please tell me I spelled that right?) scene in ˆSanta Claus is Coming to Townˆ? My brain still hurts.
While Who-ville is from Dr. Seuss, I was actually referring to my extremely obsessed Whovian boyfriend and best friends.
Here, have an Infinite Notebook, lined, complete with urple covers and wilver binding!
I'm watching A:TLA right now. Well, sort of. I'm not good at TV shows yet, so I have to look up the summary of each episode before I watch it. I've never liked TV or movies.
-Aila
I know people who don't especially like TV or movies. To me, though, it really just seems so natural. Hmm. Guess that's the insanity talking.
And I just don't. I never have, for some reason.
-Aila
I wonder why that is? Some people liking a type of media, and others not liking it...
Do you think it's something in the metaphorical water?
I like tv shows when I can get into them - just prefer books. They're easier for me to get invested in, leave more space for the imagination, and don't require a tolerance for commercials. Initially, that's why I stopped watching tv - too short an attention span to keep paying attention after the commercials started coming on faster. Now, it's more that the dorm life does not include owning a television.
I s'pose the inverse of the question would be why do you like it so much?
I usually like TV because I can see what's going on. I can get slightly confused by books, such as forgetting where someone is after they're mentioned earlier in the scene. I am an INCREDIBLY avid reader just the same.
Have some tabula rasa cake, which automatically becomes whatever cake would taste best in the situation where it is first eaten. Who's your favorite character in ATLA?
... And one that you do not want to open. Let it be said, though, that I like Zuko for his character arc and Ty Lee for being a cloudcuckoolander (Tv Tropes).
The Cake is a Lie.
/Overused meme
Anyway, I'd point you toward the Constitution, Wiki and IRC channel, with those spiffy links, but I'm feeling lazy right now. So I'll let someone else do that. I'll just give you this cup of tea, instead. Just don't let the leaves eat you, Mr. NotHimAgain.
I've read the Constitution, and my brother ¨LOVES¨the Wiki. And the leaves did not eat me, although the warning could have come a little earlier.
