In no special order, the three things I've run into today that I love:

1) Did you watch season one of The Walking Dead? If not, go do it now!

An amusing look at 'behind the scenes' of season two. I can't wait!

2) Trailer for Pixar's new movie: Brave. Watch it in the highest HD you can! The animation is SO GOOD (other than the sadly cartoonish person). I have no idea what the plot is going to be about, but man, I loved the animation on the horse, the grass, the bear!

3) NWS! I loved this week's oglaf comic to death! Sexy and hot and I love how it's written. Again, NWS!

And for the thing everyone other than me loves: Former President Bill Clinton is a brony! NPR has a show that does a section called "Not My Job", during it they quiz the people on some topic that they should have no idea about. They asked Clinton questions based on My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. He got all of them right. How funny is that!

I've given that show so many chances, I wish I could get into it, but I can't. I've given it three chances, started from the beginning, watched the recommended eps, I think it's just not a match for me. :/

And unrelated: I should make a WoW post sometime, but my enjoyment of the game is really low right now, so I keep starting posts and then going "meh" and deleting them instead of finishing.

I've not watched Walking Dead but I've read the comic up through collection #13 (#14 was just released, I believe). Heard good things, but if it's anything like the comic oh my god dark as hell. And for some reason I can handle grimdark a lot better in print (or comics) than TV and movies.

Brave and Oglaf -- awesome and always awesome.

And it surprises me not that Bill's a brony. Hahaha.

IT IS! And I love it for it. So dark! "Grimdark" is the perfect description for it. :D

You know, it's funny. I roll my eyes at people who don't want to read the Song of Ice and Fire books so they don't spoil the TV show, but I've been avoiding the Walking Dead comics so I don't spoil the show.

The studio sent me the DVD's for season 1 of Walking Dead. I was saving it for the "camping" trip. (hard to think of it as "camping" when we are taking a TV with DVD player, haha) Glad to hear that it is good!

Very very good! And ha! A TV with a DVD player sounds like the best way to go camping. :D

I am bummed out, because the My Little Pony quiz was TOTALLY EASY, of course he got them right. It was questions like, who is the main bad guy in the series:

1.) Krastos the Glue Maker
2.) Nightmare Moon the evil pony
3.) The cynical grownup Chester.

So it wasn't like he knew anything about My Little Pony at all, it was easy to figure out the right answer because the other two were just supposed to be funny. :(

I REALLY WANTED TO HEAR BILL CLINTON TALK ABOUT PONIES OKAY.
