You missed my story.

And my continuation.

I think where Pannic and I differ here is that I while we both see Pip as a self-righteous hypocrite, I don't hate her for it. I can at least see where the development is being set up to so far, and it looks like it will have a pay off. If it doesn't, then I'll be pissed.

If there's a payoff, I will take back everything I've said. No, "my girlfriend hates me for a while" does not count.

@Lurker I'm assuming you're at Arbu based on what you just said about idealised morality

@deathpigeon Eh If you say so.

But remember, this coming from the guy who enjoys stuff like this.

@Cheerilee So, the filly went through Everfree and got thrown into a fire?

@Chad: I enjoy stuff like that too, but only because it's fiction.

So, the filly went through Everfree and got thrown into a fire?

And then got saved by the blue fairy.

Problem you read story just to complain.

No, that's Romance Reports.

Fallout Equestria... I dunno. When I started I figured it'd be good, just not as good as everyone said, and then it just...

I read Fallout Equestria just praying I'd LIKE it in ANY way. So I was pleasantly surprised.

Maybe that's why I liked it. Conditions of reception. How and why you watch something can have great impacts on how you enjoy it (shrug)

I doubt that with you though, Pannic. I' just offering it as a possibility

I think rage quitting that fic actually made it far more readable in the long run, because it gave me time to cool off before talking it slowly again later. I'm mostly reading it for educational purposes, so that I can see what I do and don't want to do when writing my own story. I took it far too fast to begin with, which ended up with all of my anger at what I didn't like coming out at once.

@Lurker So you don't like any of the characters?

and that's what I mean. How and why can make a big difference on how much you enjoy something

@Miss Cheerilee

Hello there! , You are a teacher right?. Teachers are awesome, well except when they turn to be intergalactic aliens looking for a code to bend reality .

So how is your relationship with Big mac going?.

I wonder how many books I'd like differently if I had different expectations going in.

@Ginger They've grown on me. The main characters weren't what caused me to quit for a while, anyway.

I really don't know. I mean, I don't even know if I hate the fic, there are certainly ones I think are worse. Yeah, I kinda did go in with the attention "alrighty, let's see if I can have a critical eye, " but...

There are some things I like. The supporting cast is nice, Silver Bell's story was very compelling. The descriptions are very good at setting the picture for a scene. Most of the humor is pretty good, discounting "Luna fuck with with the moon" et al.

But there are just these little things that keep irritating me. The constantly misused parentheses. The times when the humor falls flat. The inconsistent characterizations. The boring meandering around. Problems with Littlepip that I've detailed. The narration. The grimderp that has absolutely no sense of irony. You get the idea.
