Blind bag ponies are small plastic figurines that come in tiny baggies~ You don't know which one's in it til you open it, hence "blind" : D

You can buy them at walmart.

Wow, surge of posts after an episode. I reacted way more than I should have at RD calling Derpy "Derpy."

She sounds like she went full retard.

Edit: The problem is her voice coupled with how she acted. If she had sounded not mentally challenged, but kept the clumsy slapstick, then she would have been that silly clumsy character. But, since she sounded retarded while acting clumsy, it just made her seem actually retarded.

It was funny, but offputting as well.

I couldn't agree more; that's exactly how I felt. If Derpy just sounded like an extremely overzealous ditz, she'd be fine. What happened was she sounded like a slurry, lower pitched mental girl.

That's not to say I don't like her voice, I love it. But still, the whole retard thing.

You're not the only one; I even paused the show, and did a backflip.
The only way they could get me more excited about the show is IF they made a feature length movie titled, "My Little Pony: Rise of Discord, Fall of Luna". If they ever did such a thing my heart would probably explode like a chestbuster from aliens.

Raibow Dash would be perfect in Sigourney Weaver's role...

I freaked the hell out when I saw that part of the episode. Overall I really liked how they did Derpy's part, but I'm not the biggest fan on the voice. Makes her seem more mentally handicapped than clumsy.

Watching livestream reactions is amusing.

i watched this once. then i shot myself in the face, respawned and told myself... NEVER AGAIN.

Same here. When I got around to watching it I was cringing to death. Not to mention 'shooting' myself, pulling my hair and digging my thumbs into my eyes.
Some episodes worse than others, but eventually the feeling wears off to a more tolerable level.

But i do like this...

The thing I like most about the fandom is the music

I didn't have this problem. I thought it was great from the beginning. I was the first brony in my circle of friends and the group benefited from my enthusiasm. None of this shameful secrecy bullcrap. I didn't feel ashamed and neither do most of them.

And ya, the music is pretty kik ass.

Then go out, buy some cherries and some tortillias, and make one.

Okie dokie.
Pretty damn tasty, if I do say so myself. Kinda messy, hopefully the pie filling will thicken once it cools.

Why does derpy sound like a retard?

Her voice actor has deeper voice and she is supposed to be a silly character.

Re: What is with all of this "My little pony" stuff? (The unofficial official MLP Thr

But it is kind of sad watching her.

My finished rocket. Name is the rainbow dash. I couldn't paint the cutie mark since that would add a few grams and put it over the legal limit for low power.

Nice penis compensation device.

In any case, what size motors does that use?

Ive talked to lots of Bronies, and there are some extreme ones and they refer to themselves as having Brony Pride. From the annoying bronies Ive seen, they run around raving about it "IM A BRONY AND PROUD, DEAL WITH IT", attack other guys that dont like MLP and try to convert them, shun people who arent, and rant about nothing but MLP. Stuff like that. Not all bronys are like that, but theres a damn lot.

Sounds like most of the furry fandom... :V

I know right?
It was funny and all, seeing as she finally got lines. But the voice just turns the humour down a notch, methinks.

 

[veeno]

Re: What is with all of this "My little pony" stuff? (The unofficial official MLP Thr

And her eye is kind of sad.

But atleast she is happy.

If they give her more lines hopefully the voice actor will give her a higher pitched voice.

This launch was with 4 Estes Black Powder E-9-4 Engines. The Motor mount was unscrewed and removed and will be replaced with an Aerotech I-125-M Composite Motor.

I love how it pauses for a second when Dash says "Derpy!" and there's near silence, as if it took a moment for everyone to figure it out, and then the entire chat just EXPLODES.

And I'm not impressed by Derpy's voice. It sounds like some redneck with down syndrome or something. Seriously. I guess I was expecting a very childish voice, but still, not happy with this.

Re: What is with all of this "My little pony" stuff? (The unofficial official MLP Thr

I was hoping Derpy was just an intelligent (yet clumsy) pony with an unfortunate vision problem. Oh well
kickass that the name's actually canon now though

Figured I'd just copy and paste.

E-9-4

Model Rocketry Engines use a log 2 scale starting at A at 10 Newton seconds (Ns). B is 20 Ns, C 40 Ns, D 80Ns, E 160Ns, and so on. Thus the rocket had 160 Ns x 4 or 640 Ns. Also this means a G engine has 640 Ns of thrust and an I 2560 Ns of thrust.

The second number is the average impulse per second.

The last number is the length of the delay charge. In this case 4 seconds. For High Power Engines use short, medium (M) and long delays.

A composite motor uses ammonium perchlorate rather than black powder.

The largest motor that day was a L-7500, and holy heck that was loud. Second largest was a K-6580 (that rocket video is in the Rockets Rave thread).

I agree a higher pitched voice. I quite liked that fan voice used in the Dr. Hooves cartoon.

Re: What is with all of this "My little pony" stuff? (The unofficial official MLP Thr

I'm not gonna admit I watch this show, because I'm a manly man unlike you perverts, but Derpy only sounds "slow" when she says "nice work Rainbow Dash". The rest of the time she sounds pretty normal, just a bit "dumber" in the way every God damned "dumb" character in any cartoon ever has sounded. Because this is a cartoon for little girls and they are the target audience and they probably relate those "dumb voices" with "dumb characters" and giggle at the silly voices. I actually know people that sound like that. And no, they're not mentally challenged.
So stop complaining, it's just some exaggerated voice work in a cartoon show. That's not new. Go back to complaining about how "Feeling Pinkie Keen" was about the scientific method being inferior to blind faith or something more valid like that.

Or, uh, so I've been told by a... niece. Yes. A niece.

My little cousin (who likes the show) thinks I'm a freak for watching the show and often asks what is wrong with me.

Also why is the construction of that building so weak?
