She's probably surprised that she's suddenly so popular.

Well, I've done it now. I've gone off the deep end.

I've started writing a fanfic.

Fluttershy is naturally nice,

I think "Putting Your Hoof Down" implies that this isn't quite true. That Fluttershy has always been tempted to be mean, and that fear of confrontation held her back from it just as much as her own inherent kindness did.

Apocalypse is the first letter of the alphabet.

#279808 Seraphem Thu, 6th Sep '12 6:41:31 AM from Delamare

Not really. I took it as Fluttershy is simply so used to suppressing her anger, or other mean thoughts that when she tried to stop doing so she simply had no idea how to control them cuase they are just so antithetical to her nature.

Build a fool proof system, and the world will create a better fool. My random thoughts

#279809 Perpetual Lurker Thu, 6th Sep '12 6:43:14 AM

Yeah, I think it says a lot for Fluttershy's character depth that she is usually incapable of expressing her feelings for fear of hurting someone. I'm sure she has to at least partially believe all the things she said about Rarity and Pinkie Pie in PYHD deep down, otherwise she wouldn't have been able to express that opinion in the first place.

Not necessarily. Sometimes when people are angry they will just say whatever they think will hurt a person the most, even if they don't necessarily believe it themselves normally. Of course that doesn't discount that Fluttershy really does believe that to a certain degree.

With Rarity and Pinkie it's a bit easier to attack them for frivolity than anyone else, but I'm sure she could think of something terrible to say to everyone she knows if she tried hard enough.

Hello.

What might flutters have said to the other three?

#279813 Perpetual Lurker Thu, 6th Sep '12 6:54:18 AM

Well, she more or less listed off the majority of their negative character traits, but ignored all of their positive ones. That doesn't make what she said untrue, it just means that she was omitting half of it to make her "The Reason You Suck" Speech more effective.

#279814 edvedd Thu, 6th Sep '12 6:56:19 AM from Over there. Maybe?

@Apple: Fluttershy would probably attack Twi's more... obsessive tendencies (Lord knows she's got a lot of them).

#279815 Mio Thu, 6th Sep '12 7:00:12 AM

@Applelight: Hmm. . .

Applejack: May have resorted to insulting farmer sterotypes, or insult her familys supposed apple fetish

Twilight: Would have used Dash style egghead insults (only more abrasive).

Rainbow Dash: Would have exploited her lack of sucess in following her dreams and overall failure in other areas (perhaps flight school).

Post of the Day #126

1) Tough question. I find that I easily identify most with Twilight and Fluttershy, but I like watching Rainbow Dash the most, with Pinkie Pie right after that. But in the end I think I'll go with Fluttershy. 2) I haven't really had time to reflect on what my favorite is out of all of them just yet, considering I've basically speedrun my way through the series. As a whole I think the Cutie Mark Chronicles affected me the most without being freaky like the rest of the eps of Season 2 though.

3) I think Pinkie is great! But that damn fanfic seems to have ruined her with a lot of the fandom. =|

4) Macintosh, eyup.

5) Sure. though she probably wouldn't get it. Wonder if she'll make a reappearence.

Yeah, that's what I pretty much thought. And I think she was just saying what she perceived to be the most hurtful thing she could think of, to inflict maximum damage.

Hi guys! I've done more liveblog.

You know, I'm starting to feel guilty that I don't post here as often anymore... I guess it's because we have no new pony to talk about, and I suck at talking for the sake of it. Oh well, the new season should be soon, I'll probably post more then.

#279822 Mio Thu, 6th Sep '12 7:15:18 AM

It would seem that insulting anothers special talent is rather obvious, and very effective way to hurt somepony.

. . .I wonder if politically incorrect shock comedians in Equestria typically have "useless cutie marks" jokes as a part of their routine?

And that's how Screw Loose (The crazy one from Read it and Weep) ended up in the insane asylum, where the nice orderlies help her get dressed every morning.

In her previous life, she helped loosen over-tightened screws.

Am I the only one who doesn't feel that "Cutie Mark Failure Insanity" is an actual thing? It kinda cheapens their characterization if you blame any of their breakdowns on magical influence that they have no control over, IMO. It seems like most people here headcanon it, though.
