I have drawn exactly one pony. It wasn't great.

ok, I keep seeing this term come up in fics, and I have to ask.

How in the blue hells did the fandom decide on the term filly fooler as the pony equivalent of lesbian?

I drew a Twilight Sparkle sprite once, but it took forever, and I never did get it to animate nicely.

Life is simple: it has no nontrivial normal subgroups.

Also, what's with the LBYS hate? Personally, I rate it above Dragonshy, Bridle Gossip, and A Bird In The Hoof.

Them are all good episodes.

@Blissey 1: Yeah, I wonder that too. Seriously, to me, "Filly Fooler" sounds more like a homophobic insult rather then a term for Lesbians.

I thought it meant Pedophile.

Maybe "fooler" is a euphemism for "fucker."

That doesn't really make it any better, though, does it?

Anyway, it sounds like an insult.

#274284 Japanese Teeth Sat, 25th Aug '12 5:57:50 PM from Meinong's jungle

Yeah, that term just sounds like it would have negative connotations. "Colt cuddler" is even worse.

@Story: I'm not sure what hate you're talking about; only Bluespade seems to think it's bad, and everyone else considers it average at worst.

@Con: It isn't that tough to draw ponies. I've literally only been drawing for about 3 weeks, and while I'm no pro, I think this isn't too bad, considering

. Granted, I'm still in the "copying from screencaps and vectors" phase, but it's not that tough to get them to actually look recognizable.

I don't think it's that bad. I've seen some fics that play it as an insult and some fics where it isn't.

There's about a million euphemisms for sex I've heard of. "Fooling around" is not the worst.

But "spanking the monkey" is pretty funny.

What's funny is the "Appleloosan Psychiatrist" fan video actually makes more sense than the official video for "Frontier Psychiatrist".

MCs on the paper with their murder metaphors need to deal with the literal resurrector.

#274294 condottiera Sat, 25th Aug '12 6:07:17 PM from Chicago

Someday, I will invent a euphemism so bizzarre as to be remembered for nothing else.

Then, someone on TV Tropes will add me to the list of confirmed Time Lord s.

I saw the pony one first, and I feel the same way.

#274296 Meta Four Sat, 25th Aug '12 6:12:47 PM from home

Well, I don't know what's going on in "Frontier Psychiatrist" either, but "Appleloosan Psychiatrist" is mostly about Applejack going crazy and and eventually murdering several ponies.

Appleloosian: Applejack is deemed criminally insane and starts killing off her friends... until the ending seems to reset that.

Frontier: A complete ensemble of people performing the actual song.

Oh, I never got far enough in the video to see that part. I just thought the song was stupid and repetitive.

It at least has some semblance of plot instead of random grotesque, surrealist imagery.

@condo: In many fanfics I haven't read, the term "fillyfooler" is generally thrown around by random groups of generic homophobes, with the rare occasion when a mane character says it being closer to an Appropriated Appellation.
