I didn't think it was possible to develop a crush on an animated equinoid.

I was wrong. eek.gif

Some people prefer the more mature and distinguished lady. Plus, a lady needs a little heft to be able to manage an M-60 effectively.

Oh, I agree that Luna is the cuter sister... but there's something about a girl who knows her way around a minigun. biggrin.gif

Crushing on an immortal goddess-princess is likely unwise, although she'll let you down easy. biggrin.gif

She needs a LAW or something. Grenades are fine in their way, but missiles are where it's at.

I didn't quite like that episode, really.

It kind of highlights Rarity's hypocrisies.

She treats Spike like a servant, expecting him to shift mountains despite her being an order of magnitude more physically capable than him, and having telekinesis to boot. We wouldn't want your horn to get sweaty when you can just make Spike do it, right?!

What's worse is that Rarity knows - she bloody knows - that Spike has a massive crush on her. This is the equivalent of a 20-something woman using a 14-year-old boy who has a huge hard-on for her as essentially free labor, batting her eyes and smiling sweetly at him because she knows he'll do anything if she strings him along enough to convince him he might have a ghost of a chance of scoring with her. In fact, it may be literally that; Spike was hatched when Twilight was a young filly, so he's probably a teenager by now.

So, yeah. Rarity is shitty to Spike, and worse, because of the show's targeted audience (as opposed to this audience,) she's being held up as a role model for young girls. "Go ahead and string boys along with the vauge possibility of sex in exchange for making them use their sweaty boy-bodies to do things you don't want to get your girly self sweaty doing. It's okay! They're boys, their feelings are irrelevant until they turn into starring quarterbacks!"

And then at the end of the episode, she has another fucking melt-down. After having learned a valuable lesson about how friends are more important than success, not to mention quite a bit about honesty... She fucking reneges on a deal. She promised an exorbitant favor to the stage director of Hinny of the Hills in exchange for getting his crew to put on a private performance just for her friends and her - she promised that she, the well-known and successful dressmaker Rarity, would make all of the costumes for the next production. Then she goes and foists off on him somepony else's sacked assistant!


That stage director should pretty much be ready to torch down the Carousel Boutique, or worse - sue her reneging plot for fraud and breach of contract!

I...totally forgot applying overly rational thought to pony tends to make braincells implode ^_^

That and I'm wondering if I should start watching Season 4. I hear the show's gotten a bit weird since Twilight's Alicornication
Stahlseele
Wanna hear the weird part about it?

edit:
well, i'll tell you anyway!

you remember the hubub it caused when it was revealed that she would ascend to alicorny? yeah?
appearantly, the writers don't. as long as it's not a twilight episode, she even forgets she has wings and can fly most of the time.
kinda like flutterhy when it's not a fluttershy episode. but added to that is that despite the whole world, including ponies what don't know her, being able to clearly see that she is now royalty?
Yep, she still gets treated AND ACTS like the dorky geek living in the library . .
DamHawke
Maybe she just has really bad PR nyahnyah.gif

Until then, she's going to remain Princess Dork of the Library.

I recognized the sight of him but had no idea who he was or what he was known for. I never saw Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, let alone read the book, but I knew the name and the look... I just thought he was a fictional character.
Stahlseele
i am still a bit sore about the fact that they did not use "this is bat country!" in the BATS episode . . because it had both the country girl applejack and bats in it obviously . .

I take a few years off of shadowrun and dumpshock and just happen to miss this? Kinda shocked I didn't notice it earlier, and that there wasn't a thread much earlier.
Stahlseele
Well, i wasn't into Pony fromt he beginning either.
I am very much a moderate/convert.

ShadowBronies still scare me.

caution should be used when dealing with that particular group of professionals i guess.
i hear loving and tolerating them helps. a bit.

Actually, I'm about 90% sure that it's just part of the overall drop in writing quality because the last two seasons have featured the shiny new Story Editor who IIRC has no previous credits in that position, Meghan McCarthy, also writing an Equestria Girls movie while trying to do the job. Clearly she's not exercising a great deal of continuity control. nyahnyah.gif

Then again, that may be why the last story editor, Rob Renzetti left to work on Gravity Falls instead.

I don't think the Venn Diagram of Bronies with animation and voice acting skills, and the one of ShadowBronies, has an awful lot of crossover.

Sadly.
