Friend's kid inviting us all to a puppet show made from his bunk bed. Whole household on floor cushions watching this elephant and dragon argue by flashlight about what is best for baby doll. His parents are probably really regretting not having filmed it all.

Watched that on one youtube after watching a russian version of the same tale.

I remember there was one cartoon I had on vhs. It had bears with butterfly wings and I cant for the life of me remember the title but I still remember the norwegian dub and the song sang during some festival.
Sounds pretty cool, you'll have to let us know when you find it! Only winged bear cartoon I know of was from the Wuzzles which is probably not it, they only had one I think and she's a butter-yellow, her friend is a lion with that has pink or yellow 'bee' wings and is drawn a tad teddy-like.

It's the childhood anime time machine...
What do you remember from your childhood that made it to to VHS or broadcast in your nation and language but are still waiting for it to come back to you on DVD in your region and the language of your childhood?
I'll start us off with one...
 :cold: Toei Animation's Twelve Months... still waiting for Region 1 English.

« on: January 25, 2019, 10:11:28 AM »
Am so sorry for the loss of your pets. Pony.Backpack you did a good thing adopting a snake and nursing her back to health, it's understandable that you'd have considered how hard it is to find a wise and caring snake home before your move, it likely would have been a risk either way. I have had an aquarium heater fail on me before, tropical pets are just not easy in temperate zones and humans can only do so much. I hope you and Strawberrysweets will remember all the love that you gave to your animal friends. Exotic pet people do not have it as easy as dog and cat people but by the same argument your experience would make you better carers for these creatures when you are ready to move on. They were lucky to have those loving homes. I hope Dex pulls through... I don't know much of anything about snakes but I hope this is not the end... I think they get lethargic from cold but maybe also is depressed about snake sister passing and not as active? I hope. ehugs.

Pony Corral / Re: Has Hasbro ever officially used the term G3.5?
« on: January 25, 2019, 09:44:06 AM »
IIRC there was a debate at the time if it should be "G3.5" or "G4" and it was only -really- settled when G4 came around? but yeah, basically what LadyM said. Different style but too similar to G3 to properly be seen as an entirely seperate generaton.

I feel like I remember someone from Hasbro (or maybe someone involved with FiM?) using the term "G4"/"G5" a while ago? maybe in the leaked G5 stuff? but I don't recall them ever referring to the other gens by name. Officially they've always just been "My Little Pony".
:huh: I wasn't ever privy to insider Hasbro stuff but I remember some conversation here. If I am recalling correctly I think the whole pro-'call it G3.5' thing was basically about it being the same pony characters as in G3 only younger and with mommies this time, bubble shaped heads reflecting their youth, & more juvenile series. And yeah, some people were for calling it G4 because of the design change and the new series. So for a while FIM was G5. And yet on ebay I have noticed that a lot of people STILL just list G3.5 as G3 ponies. It was a brief lived and confusing transition and sometimes I believe that it was just to get consumers used to the more rounded heads for FIM.
Over the years, as is obvious, MLP has more importantly had less and less of a snout, and of course there wasn't much of one to begin with... Equestria Girls were of course the shortest of these, (seem to never consider counting that as one of the gens for whatever reasons besides it being the most drastic design change Hasbro has ever put MLP through), but any smaller sniffer and the nose on the pony is just going to be a dot folks... I have to wonder how we'd react to dots to breathe through? :P

Interesting... I've seen this before but always thought it was a :huh: kid/teen with hi-lighter pens... an extremely bored one barely touching the pony... used to marvel that anyone could get that bored with an old herd so that they could find nothing else to do with a pen and the pony. Mystery solved. Sad that they deteriorate but I guess not as much as thinking of that.

This weird creamsicle fakie is in an on-going ebay lot. Doesn't look like a Soma giraffe or the giraffes that have cloven hooves. Anyone seen this thing before?  :blink:
Don't think I have but... the hearts at least, think I know where your mind was going... orange does remind of the hearts on my Soma elephant maybe looks a tad darker on the giraffe but hard to tell from a photo... white muzzle grin also reminds me of some of the recent strawberry shortcake horses... quite an inspired little fakie. ;)

Off Topic / Re: Least Favorite School Subject
« on: January 24, 2019, 09:15:45 AM »
Was homeschooled the majority of my childhood and not allowed much opportunity to be with other kids unless I had to see the pediatrician or something. We rarely went to parks, wasn't allowed to leave the yard, and was forbidden to go outside until my father was home and only then until dark. No playmates really or hardly ever. Had no internet in those days... had a secret friend penpal who was evasive when I tried to find out who she was but then she totally forgot about me. Found out years later she was faked by a parent for a while until they felt like giving up... they'd have known years before then that I was hurt by it, considering they were the person watching me check the mail.
I've had good and bad teachers, was in public school enough to get what it is to be bullied by your peers, as well as some things I'd been through as an adult. I think my favorite part about when you are old enough to college is that it's possible sometimes to pick your teacher but my least favorite part is it costs money so if the instructor signs up to teach a class and turns it into a personal biography fan-club instead there is basically little way to stop them or get your money back. I've had one or two teachers others described as abusive... I've never been able to figure out whether I dislike more the thorough abusers who pick on everyone outrageously, or the vain ones who try to divide the students against one another so they can blame the people who need help for not teaching the course while berating instead of helping the people who need help and natter on unrelated stuff about themselves as role models to college kids. The thorough ones are usually the most drastic, but the vain ones who manipulate everyone are kinda also worse in their own way, you know?
Most teachers I've had were basically average to really good. And I'm still glad of the caring ones who were into both their subjects and teaching them.
I think the internet has helped democratize adult learning to some extent, but it's still hard to make up some gaps while living as an adult because you have more relationships and responsibilities that rarely pause. I know there are a lot of people who teach for free now just because they love to and share their gifts online... I hope that one day that willingness changes the way we think about instruction... most especially as it's also been proven that people follow for no other reason than a love of learning, minus any credit. I'm not sure how much we get from being forced into student/pupil relationships. I'm not sure how much we get out of grades. I don't like it when people call anyone stupid or crazy. I do like it when there is value for each person as unique and no better than anyone else, when that happens learning does.
I'd have to say I am limited in some areas, but my least favorite subject no matter what it is the kind with a timer, especially a noisy timer. There is too much inside my head to filter out.

I'm afraid I don't know much about MLP prototype but if this is broad enough for MLP & friends to count... those extra Moon Dreamers animals would have been added to my herd when they reached second-hand.

But I've re-homed Rory and Ursa here whom do not seem to know the difference.

One of those dreams where life grows a bit more plausibly complex (in some still ludicrous way) than it already was... which brings so many fretful and in daylight funny complications per course for you and well everyone else protagonist or antagonist. After a groggy confusion recollecting my own set of obstacles made things feel nicely much smaller & my formerly scary mental list of problems shorter. If those gremlins only knew I bet they'd also be glad we didn't put me up to that much.  :bolt:
But it was a relief simply to be me again in spite it all.
