Is the show worth watching from start to the latest episode, or is it the kind of thing you can watch in a random order, without missing any important details?

Season 1 can be watched in pretty much any order, with the exception that episode 26 and 14 kind of spoil the ending to 3. Season 2 has more continuity so you may miss a few things.

You can watch in order what you like, only continuity in season one are in Cutie Mark Chrusaters episodes and those related to Gala from last s1 episodes.

So has anybody actually seen the Manon episode "Strawberry Elves"? All I can find is its synopsis:

Manon, Bingo the dog and Melba the cat collect strawberries. There are so many of it in the wood, and it's so good ! But suddenly they hear strange voices. Who's speaking? Maybe the elves, who don't appreciate having their strawberries collected.

Oh right, I forgot about Call of the Cutie. Episode 12 is spoiled by 17, 18, and 23.

Okay, sorry for any derails, but here's an update on my move. I'm typing this from my grandmother's house, which has Internet. It's pretty much definite that we're going to get Comcast, since it's a major service provider that my grandmother also uses. However, my parents tell me that they're not worried about Internet in the slightest, and'll only get it when certain conditions are met (who knows how long that will take). Now they're acting like getting Internet service is some kind of unholy topic, and get pissed when I try to bring it up. As you guessed, I quit trying, and I'm just letting it go for now. I'm worried about how long I'll be gone, and I'll really miss you guys.

Oh, Gex, please don't be gone forever.

I'll miss you. You're my friend.

I know what to pray for now.

This is the Yack Fest thread. Derails are ok.

I hope you get a new connection soon, Gex!

Japanese Teeth: I just read the latest chapter of your fanfic. I don't usually go much for shipping stories, but this one I am definitely enjoying! smile

But they seem to know where they are going, the ones who walk away from Omelas.

Yeah, so, I'm working my way through Act 2 of Homestuck for anybody who cares about that. It's really addicting.

If Blue Spade comes back, let him know.

I'm in act 3 right now. My binge is halted by a situation I have found myself in that should be over by the weekend's end.

That's cool.

No spoilers, please. I won't talk about the story, just that I'm reading it. It's pretty funny. I really like Rose's character.

I got to Act 5 Part 1, stopped, read the rest of it and Part 2 a while ago, then stopped again.

I'm not going to start reading again just yet, though.tongue

I must say, it's somewhat weird reading it when you know somewhat who Equius, Vriska, and Eridan are because of things that happened in the pony thread.tongue

I've been told it gets convoluted.

So far there has been lots of jumping back and forth in time, but it is not terribly confusing yet.

[up] No spoilers! Don't wanna know! Just updating my place in the story.

BTW, so psyched for the season premiere of Doctor Who tonight! BBC America is having a marathon to celebrate. Tried explaining the plot line to mother, failed, watched it without her anyway.

Yeah... [lol] She is not very supportive of my interests, especially MLP. She doesn't seem to believe me that most of the people my age who like it are guys. She hates the show, but she hates almost all cartoons.

Oh, mother...

[up]Sorry, probably should have put those names in a spoiler tag.

Though, just their names isn't too much of a spoiler.tongue

My current avatar's probably more of a spoiler than that.tongue

Aright, I suppose I figured there'd be more characters anyway.

I haven't even looked to much at the trope page, cause it warns that ALL spoilers are unmarked!

That thing is huge.

I am really loving how every one of their guardians is obsessed with some random thing.

Is Dave's brother gay or something? I haven't officially met him, but his collection is giving me vibes.

Some more reactions:

Dave is kinda hilarious eventually, even though he is still an insufferable prick. I like how he goes all Highlander with his sword. Plus, his brother has a Batarang, so that's awesome. Plus, I think he may also be kinda fucked up.

Rose's POV was the hook that actually got me involved in the story, where before I had just been reading out of a sense of obligation.

This actually gets addressed in the story.

Yeah, I have a feeling that they are going to become imps like the harlequins and try to kill him.

But wow, Dave is in some serious denial. His brother is such a creep.

Ha ha, T-minus 2 hours to Doctor Who season premiere. So psyched for that.

@Carciofus: Glad to hear you're enjoying it. smile I really wanted to write something that actually had some substance to it besides fluff about how cute the couple is, and it's good to know that it's working. And weirdly enough, this isn't the first time that somebody who doesn't like shipping much has enjoyed it, which is good. Means that I actually have something somewhat unique going.

@Con: I can't wait to see how you react to certain future events. Also, I think the sections in Dave's house are some of my favorite bits of the early arcs. Especially when he arms himself and succeeds only in making an enormous mess in the kitchen.

Dave's Brother is actually a really great guy.

One specific scene in particular stands out in proving that he is a genuinely heroic individual under all that creepiness.

I like that. All the characters seem to have quite a lot more depth than is initially apparent.

I still don't know the other girl's name, though.

I suspect she is psychic and/or a time traveler.
