I'm afraid I don't. All I know is that it's effectively a substitution cipher from plain English.
Thanks. I had noticed that it was a substitution cypher (many of the letters rather look like its English equivalents, by the way) but I did not bother to try to translate the text. Maybe later.

About human unicorns: perhaps they should just have extra long noses? tongue

I'm not a big fan of humanizations either.

Re-posting this:

Also, I got in contact with another friend of mine. He's in Australia now working in the mines in Queensland...on $79, 000 a year, at the age of 25. That's what a Masters in Engineering will do for you. tongue

Eh, I think that they can be pulled off well. The overly fanservicey seem a little iffy to me, though — I mean, come on, Applejack is a farmer, she's not going to use that sort of skimpy and unpractical clothing...

I know what you mean. She should have real practical clothing that hides her figure, not show it off.

Overalls dude.
Everything's been done. Everything has a meaning. However your life at best is to serve as a building block for others.

Good for him, if that's what he likes! Me, I like academia better — the pay is not as good, but being paid to study things you'd want to study anyway is pretty much perfection made job.

This reminds me, I might have found a workaround at the problem in my proof I found yesterday. Time to check if that works or is another dead end!

Man, you never want a guy like me in charge of anything. tongue Anyway, sorry about that Death.

AJ would be in overalls, definitely.

Here's a Pinkie Pie. Sorry to say, it's human.

Doing what you really want to do is important. He tells me that his job is mostly paperwork, and he watches the cloak a lot. Still, for that amount of money....

I don't mind humanizations in fan works but yeah, it would feel massively out of place in the show itself.

@DC: I pretty much threw a party in my hard drive when I found out Office 2007 ditched Clippy. Always trying to offer "help" with my homework, and it's all irrelevant to the document at hand. You can keep him.

Wow. People agreeing with me on Arbu! I keep seeing comments about how she was wrong to feel guilty about that which confused me.

On humanisations: I'm not asking people to like them and I agree that it would feel out of place in canon, but I'm saying that liking ponyfications and not humanisations is an odd Double Standard.

@Sereg I do not like humanizations in the slightest. It's not because I think that they're wrong, though. They just really creep me out for personal reasons.

Incidentally, Arbu was where I stopped reading FOE, if only because I knew exactly where it was going with it, and the incoming combination of preaching and angst was enough motivation to stop reading.

@ Orion: Liking humans turned into ponies but not ponies turned into humans. I can see it being a double standard.
