Okay I'm gonna do it... · 10:34pm Nov 26th, 2013
I will make a sequel to Buck My Life, but I have one condition. I need a name for it. Post your ideas for a title and if I can find one good enough I will attempt to make the next part in the series. I am mainly doing this for two reasons, I'm having a hard time with the other story I was making and I cant seem to get out of the MLP mindset. I figure why waste my time struggling with writers block when I can head off in another direction (technically the first direction) and make at least some progress? So if anyone can help out with a title that would sound like it could continue Buck My Life, please let me know.
(P.S. don't just slap a '2' on the end... try to be at least a little creative.)

1544277 Well that would be good if the entity known as 'Dusk' wasn't purged from me at the end. Just give it time, there's no rush.
1544308 It did sound good, but I just checked and it was already taken.
1544337 Well the character is me (aka Jason). Dusk has mostly been taken out of the picture.
1544375 I think you may be on the right track there. Maybe something with rebirth or resurgence.
I think you should keep buck in the name that way when this story is done and if you make another one it can be called the "buck series"
like buck renascence or some other title with buck in it.
1544297here's my idea, if not for a title, but maybe a chapter. So, I defeated discord, now what? Actually, that might be a nice title. Or, as a title, my life is now bucked.
1546849 The first one seems a little conceited. It sounds like 'look at me, I'm more powerful than the GOD of chaos!'. The second one sounds like it needs some tweaking, but its not completely unusable.
1547122 well, do you want to keep the buck in there? Or something else?
1547122also, meet me on skype
1544297 I have an idea. How about having Jason gets transported back to Earth and try to cope with day to day life knowing the fact that he was in Equestria and no one believes him.
Like him having visions/hallucinations,hearing voices, and even QUESTIONING whether or not he actually WAS in Equestria.
Kind of like a continuation of the bonus chapter. Idk about you but that seems like a really good idea.
Plus it would allow us to see Jason's family life and all that.
Like a slice of life story.
1544297 And also on and unrelated note:
What was up with people on the bonus chapter in the comment on Buck My Life section hating on you and bashing you?
1573043 Well I already put it to a vote a long time ago and people like the thought of me staying in Equestria (plus you dont want to hear about my family life, trust me).
1573063 I'm not really sure what was going on there, but it kinda hurt. I'm not sure if that was an act of trolling, but it was still unpleasant and I'm still trying to deal with it.
1573080 Ah that is too bad. I think my idea was a good idea. Plus it would be different then the usual person stays in Equestria.
Nevertheless, I have liked and supported your story since the beginning, and will continute to read, support, and follow your story!.
And also as for writing my OWN HiE, I have like 3 ideas floating around in my head.
I've had 1 out of the 3 in my head for quite some time actually.
But another 1 just popped up and now it kind of makes it seem better than my original, you know what I mean?
I hope I can stop with being lazy and actually write them down
And as for your family life, didn't you already give us a summary of it on more than once occasion?
Mom does meth, dad doesnt do anything, had a unknown illness for a long time, made u bedridden, ect?
I think that is a very bold and risky move to put that out there on the internet.
You know you are open to haters, trollers and all those types of people that will use all that info and try to make feel more bad about yourself ect.
1573125 I would like to hear your ideas if you care to tell me, and my real life troubles have only been summarized to spare you from hours of reading. I mean really if you knew the crap that I've gone through in the past two weeks, you would probably think that there is a god somewhere that is out to get me.
As for me talking about myself openly, I just feel that it is something that will actually help. I have felt bad from a few comments that I have recieved but when I look back and see how many people say that 'Jason rules' or 'this character is awesome', I just feel amazing. Its like I'm simultaniously letting people know who I am, giving them a character that they can relate to, and making a fun, likable story all at once. Its like a somewhat new genre that gives joy to the writer as well as the readers while remaining honest, and that is something I would like to see more of, especially since there are so many that want to know more about the person who is behind the stories.
1573174 The past 2 weeks?
You can PM me what happened in the past 2 weeks if you like. If you need someone to vent to, just PM me, I would be more than happy to listen.
And trust me, My life hasn't been sunshine and rainbows either. Not as bad as yours, but I have gone through some crap in my life too, and continuing too.
It seems like when stuff happens in our lives, I guess we tend to feel alone and no one else can possibly understand or help us.
So, as I said before, you are more than welcome to PM me if you wish.
I would be glad to at least try to help, and if not, just listen.
1573174 And also, I don't mind your pessimistic attitude towards life and humanity at all!
A lot of the people on here despise the types of stories where a misanthropic type human goes to Equestria.
But think about it, everytime you turn on the news, its mostly all bad news.
Ever hear of the saying: bad news sells?
When you look at the news and the world today, it isn't surprising that people are becoming misanthropic and hating humanity. So Idk why people are suprised and offended when they see a story of a misanthropic/cynical human in Equestria.
I don't get people who are opposing misanthropist humans in Equestria, and creating groups like Humans Arent Bastards.
I mean sure there are good people out there, but there are alot of bad people too, and the stuff the bad people do, I guess it overshadows the good in humanity i suppose.
If the ponies in Equestria saw how our world is on Earth... I cant even BEGIN to imagine their reactions.
They would ALL be HORRIFIED AND SCARED OF US!
And when I mean look at how bad Earth is, I'm talking about War, Crime,ect. Stuff that doesn't even Exist in Equestria to begin with. I mean sure, there are a few villains, but they are always defeated, so Equestria is almost a utopia if you think about it. Its not surprising when a human in Equestria, given the chance, does not want to return to Earth, after they see what Equestria has to offer.
Not even the villains in MLP would be able to keep a straight face If they saw how Earth is as well!!!
They too would be HORRIFIED AND SCARED OF US!
So as far as the misanthropic humans, I can understand if the character is like: 100% pessimistic, hates everyone and everything and doesn't want love, hates the idea of love, never smiles and hates and insults everyone he/she comes across, I admit that is taking it a little bit too far.
But why should we sugarcoat humanity?
1573336 Yeah but look at what I did with it. I wasn't mean all the time was I? I was only doing what I thought I should, and after the first two or three chapters you start seeing signs of kindness. I mean really, that was one of the problems I came across in the story! Discord stated that I was acting different from the beginning! That is what makes a three dimensional character! Learning and changing as things affect the character! Here is the definition of a three dimensional character:
Sound familiar?
Here's a title: "Finding my New Talent".
I came up with this because Jason lost his cutie mark after he sent Discord to space, so he needs to find something else he could be good at, perhaps join the CMC.
Also, you could use "The Gift of Love".
I used this one for the human sequel if you were going to try it. At the end, his "gift", otherwise known as Twilight, arrived.
1583976 I don't think I would care about getting a cutie mark. I don't need a stamp on my butt to know who I am. The human chapter was non-cannon so it will not be used or mentioned in the sequel.
1583987 :/ i got nothing, then...
