Mustache has been a meme since Twilight had her own signature spell for making them in Season One :V

I'm actually reading a story at the moment were Sweetie Belle gets a spell to turn things rainbow-coloured from bucking the Zap-Apple tree, and it looks like she's going to be using a Mare-do-well costume altered to fit her. The story is... meh.

@Anarchist: While I still think your reaction is excessive(And I find a degree of irony in your thanking us for not cussing you out), I suppose there's little to be done to convince you otherwise. I will say though, for the record, Robin Williams can actually act dramatically quite well. He was very, very good in What Dreams May Come.

As for me, I'm off to play some more Oblivion, I suppose. Don't... ask me why, because I'm honestly not sure anymore. Something to do, I suppose.

Oh, the one about Sweetie getting powers from a zapapple accident? Eh, I wasn't too keen on the premise and the comments didn't seem to be that promising, so I passed.

Robin Williams is a capable actor when he's not attempting to be hilarious, basically. When he wants to be dramatic he can be.

Also, I just stumbled across this, and felt compelled to post it (with tongue firmly in cheek, mind you).

@Anarchist Let's just stand by our respective points, then. I don't really want this to devolve into an unnecessary squabble. Although I don't think such a strong reaction is appropriate when dealing with fiction, especially the part about quitting a show because of one writer. But, as I said, let's just end this here.

And I hadn't heard of that Zapapple superpowers fanfic, but usually such weird premises breed pretty good stories, what with the sentient pinecone story and others I can't remember right now. I guess there's exceptions. Or my taste in fanfics ain't good.

Good afternoon. Gonna watch this thing now.

[up] Pinecones have hopes and dreams too!

Celestia is actually making Twi do stuff now. It seems like this season really is leading up to her gaining some new power/knowledge or something.

Really Spike, a checklist? Twi is definitely rubbing off on him.

Spike knows what rockets are? The tech level in Equestria really is all over the place.

Anyone else notice anything weird about the animation of this episode? It seems very noticeably flash to me, something I've never thought before. I can't really decide what's different about it... (no I'm not talking about the CGI).

Why does Spike suck at everything?

I like how nonchalant AJ and Rarity are about the wolves. "Oh I fought three unholy monsters to the death and now Spike's crazy" "yes yes, how horrid."

Dash actually called Applejack "AJ." Has that ever happened before?

OH WOW RAINBOW'S WRITING A NOVEL! That's pretty much the best/most hilarious thing. [tup] [tup] [tup]

Wow AJ is a really terrible artist. Almost at Karkat level.

Why is the thread so dead?

Wait, why is Rarity suddenly blatantly flirting with AJ? Did the animators not know what she was supposed to be talking about or something?

What, REALLY AJ? With all your ridiculous strength, you can't lift a few small rocks off your hoof?

The fake timberwolf attack was hilarious though. I loved Pinkie's fake scream and Twilight's real one, and how Flutters and RD did that high one when Spike said the sound effects were good.

This episode is full of cuteness.

Wow, Alpha Timberwolf is pretty cool...

Why would a timberwolf need to breath? How did Spike budge the rocks that AJ couldn't move?

This climax sucks.

It looked like the rocks were angled such that they couldn't be pushed off, even with Spike levering them. Mechanical advantage, ho!

Well for an episode I wasn't expecting to like, that one was pretty sweet. Granted, I didn't really like Spike in the episode... him suddenly being terrible at everything was rather contrived and made him no less boring than usual...

But I loved all the other characters in the episode. It was nice to see another episode that spreads out the focus to the whole marmalade.

And no letter at the end is a plus.

[up] Nope, not buying it. AJ has super strength. She ought to have been able to kick them off easily, or just pull herself out of it.

@Lopiny. I have no idea what I just read, but it was ridiculous.

@Blue. Yeah. The thing with the Giant Timberwolf was just...disappointing.

I have to agree with Bluespade here...those rocks shouldn't have caused AJ a problem. tongue

But apart from that and Spike's sudden clumsiness, I don't have a problem with this episode. It's a great 20 mins of TV.

I tend to ignore pshycis on this show otherwise my head start to hurt, like for example ponies will need by logic at least two hearts to pump enough blood for those giant heads they have. And how do pegasus flight withouht having hollow bones? Shouldn´t they crash under their own weight? And...ah forget it look at the pretty pony!

I liked the episode even when they were a few miss jokes but overall I laughed and thats all I ask for this show.
