To quote one of my news posts from before Season 5 began:
 
">Not quite sure what to do about Season 5. Normally, I'd hold off on watching until I could go through half a season or so in a day. That was, however, before I got involved in the community (lurking and whining on /mlp/).
>Few things will kill a show faster for me than trying to get into it when I can only watch 20 minutes of it a week, but with all the misgivings I have about the direction of the show, I want to be able to participate in active, up to date discussions (complaining and profanity) about each episode. Something that won't be possible if I end up watching some of them several months after they first air."
 
My decision was as follows:
On the off chance that anyone gives a fuck, I have decided how to handle S5. I am going stay away from the community to avoid spoilers, wait for the entire season to air, watch all of them at the same time, and then catch up on my bitching. Unfortunately, that will lead to a lot of potential bitching going unbitched (because it'll be old news by the time I want to talk about it), but that is a sacrifice I am willing to make.
 
With that said, I bid you a temporary farewell. I still love pone as much as the next horsefucker (well, almost. not a fan of Twilicorn or the Super Friends Hall of Justice), and I will be back the second I've watched episode 26, ready to complain about it. Then I'll stick around for the S5-S6 wait.
 
I will still be working on "Unnamed AiE Story" while I'm gone, but, as always, I can't promise huge quantities of content (or content that adheres to S5 worldbuilding, obviously).
I won't be posting any of it until I return, though.
 
Here's to a great (or at least enjoyable) Season 5!
