On the subject of Pinkie Pie and puns (and the meaning of "literally"), I'm surprised she DIDN'T take the term baby-sitting literally and either outright try to sit on top of Pound and Pumpkin or say something like "You want somepony to sit on them?!" in shock. Or that she didn't use that as one of her puns in her comedy routine where she tried to entertain the babies.

I just realized that top comments for that video are "I did nazi that coming!" and "I see what jew did there!"
@ATC: Proper grammar is important, but it's not the end-all, be-all of meaning. That and I think that grammar out to be descriptive, not prescriptive. Language shifts, and any hard and fast rules are going to eventually become outdated.
TL;DR It's fine if you consider something important, but you can't expect other people to consider it equally important and adjust their posts accordingly.

Ha, lulz.
Let the gratuitous fanservice and zaniness be purged.

I don't know what just happened.
The logical conclusion is to make bad puns.

Yeah, Andromeda is heading for you. You got over 9000 years until it collides.

For the fiftieth episode, they have a rock-off against Pinkie Pie and Rainbow Dash. Sadly the only music available is the CMC song from Show Stoppers. Hilarity Ensues.
