Mio was talking about One Bad Apple. My problems with Over a Barrel have NOTHING to do with RL cowboys and Indians. The only RL issues that colour my perception of it are African land reform, which basically means that I have the opposite view to those who are angry about tyhe RL cowboy and Indian connotations. Seriously, read JT's review of the episode. I agree with every word.

Your Dad's problem is probably pretty simple. His ex's a bint and your brother sounds none to pleasant to be around either. He's probably pretty lonely, and as his last reasonable family connection the weight falls on you. Dude probably needs a girlfriend or something. And really, how many opportunities in your life do you have to tell your dad he needs to get laid.

That's pretty much it.

@kegi: "Dad, you seriously need to go find some booty."

Man, awkward conversation.

Oh OBA not OAB, damnit to many acronyms now.

OBA was amazing. Yes, they maybe could have shown Babs being a tad more conflicted or uneasy at being a bully, but overall, it was really really well done.

This is why I like to spell out the episode name I'm talking about.

At least there's no episode that shortens to EBA, otherwise the whole episode would be a touch screen rhythm game.

Just don't make us write out the Super Speedy Cider Squeezy 6000.

I'm waiting for one episode to have a title that shortens to something like ASS or SUCK, or some other really odd word.

The first one is about donkey racism, obviously. The second one is about the Ponyville drinking straw festival.

That probably will not happen, Executives can see the acronym.

Didn't stop them from a Call of Duty title and Twilight's book on sleepovers which has to be the best radar moment in the series. Though there really doesn't seem to be that many moments. Musical and theatrical shout outs aplenty, but that's about it.

One should shorten to FUDGE.

Yes, and eat too much fudge you get a pudge and you can't budge!

There's a season 7 episode that has Pinkie and Applejack enter a cooking contest together, called Candied Rocks & Apple Pies. Not many people liked it, though, said the episode was CRAP.

ASS will clearly be April Shower Songs.

Not many acronyms. SAYS, POO, and SIP. And EG is the abbreviation "for example."

@Dark There's also SOME for Secret of My Excess

Which one was POO?

Party of One

@Story: Party Of One

@Apple: At least he seems to genuinely enjoy your company, which is more than you can say for the rest of your family.

In other news, holy crap did last night suck. I ended up not being able to sleep due to chest pain, which ultimately ended up with my parents driving me to the emergency room (I wasn't dying or anything, but my family has a history of heart trouble and we figured "better safe than sorry"). Got there at like five in the morning and was stuck in an uncomfortable bed for four hours while I waited for test results. Finally got home at ten in the morning and then slept until about 1:30 in the afternoon. Good news is that it was nothing serious; it's just muscle pain brought on by stress. Still, my sleep schedule is completely screwed up now.
