Just an observation, could just be me. Not saying anything about The AquaBats. I've had friends big into them. Not my thing. I had a blast watching pony videos and short little virals last night. TBH I muted synctube and played some Mincraft while the Aquabats episode was on. I had Vent still on, silent. My interest in staying up was lost far before I was even told there was only 3 minutes left.

I had just been having a crappy day up until the end of work and by the time I got home I didn't want to do anything but go to bed.
Also this because it's awesome and I'm to lazy to go into the image thread + related to Rarity.
Now I have two characters with which to kick Cola's ass in Fighting is Magic
[X] Rainbow Dash
[X] Rarity
And it turns out you actually were asleep? We even got to turn that on Lynx last night, and it's jumped to you before we changed it in the first place? Time paradox!
On a serious note, I do hope your feeling better. Must be Spring setting in. People be hurtin'.
As for the Aquabats, I watched it with an open mind and did enjoy it. It just felt really out of place. Most non-pony things do in that stream. Also I did check them out when Hammy mentioned them before. A few songs are even part of my playlist now.
Don't take offense to it. I laughed at the aquabats. I get that kind of humor. But it's definitely not for everyone, and certainly not the people that show up for pony streams. People just want to switch their minds off, have a drink, and watch some pony.
It is really funny that @ilriyas missed this stream. We didn't realize until the end of the second episode that we had just dished out two episodes with Rarity and zero Dash. You would have lost your mind and started building signs all over your minecraft house again.
To put it in perspective, it's kind of like saying MLP:FiM is like that Strawberry Shortcake show that preceeds ponies on saturdays before the new ep (ugh).
I guess I get the non-pony-stream thing, though. Looks like I need to start doing non-pony streams on the side, if I can actually get people to show up.
And Hammy, I love you, but chill. They're not the same thing, but there are many similar aspects, and those caused me to draw a parallel: middle-aged chunky men running around in outfits I'd rather not see them in being absurd in a manner typically reserved for cartoons shot with that particular cinematic style. No, the writing style isn't the same; I don't expect anyone to write like Eric Wareheim or fuck it up like Tim Heidecker (that was a joke). So yes, I voiced that comparison, and no, I'm not apologizing for it.
I do appreciate you sharing it with us, and I really don't mind it being in a pony stream. I'll probably even watch later episodes just to see what it's like post-trailer. I'd even be down with us sync-tubing it, but not in a pony stream as most people seem opposed to that. I think I suggested doing that to you, and I'm sorry if it caused anguish.
In fact, considering there's so many other random shows that we would love to share as a community, why don't we do other, non-pony streams from time to time for just that sort of thing? I've a feeling we'd get decent turnout.
Ilriyas is smalltime for not being there, we had the perfect pro-rarity crowd and episodes to help him fully embrace the most fabulous poni and he flakes out.
Clearly, the dude still can't handle dat Rarity.
Then we had something....darker.
