-cringe- I'd hate to have our lovable Scootaloo be a burger! Maybe that is a good enough reason for me to take her home, despite getting mauled by cuccos!

Discord is probably a case of Blue and Orange Morality. It's hard to gauge how much of his action was malicious and how much was him just being oblivious to how much he was hurting everyone. His "redemption" might not be so much turning over a new leaf as that he finally got an opportunity to experience friendship, and as a result he now knows how much terrible stuff he put everyone through. Thought chances are he doesn't entirely understand it. Wouldn't be at all surprised if he still causes a lot of trouble due to not knowing when to stop.

Well that's the name that won their online contest for naming a burger, IIRC

Life is simple: it has no nontrivial normal subgroups.

I'd eat a delicious Scootaloo veggie burger.

My dad worked at one of the chicken slaughterhouses that they buy from for twenty years. His stories are the reason I went vegan.

The notion of Mc Donald's chicken burgers make me uncomfortable enough without putting the name of a pony on them. I mean, even moreso than their burgers. They just toss an entire chicken in the grinder, you know. Don't bother to pluck it or even take off the beak or legs or anything, just grind up the whole damn chicken.

Fried Scootaloo drumsticks with potato wedges and a Diet Coke, please.

Mmm-mmm! *burp*

Where's the cane? Somebody get the cane.

Oh, no! They've all transformed into giant, Swedish, lederhosen-clad yodelers! Run!

I, as a massive Scootaloo fan, am morally outraged by this topic of conversation!

Insert something witty that makes me better than all of you, here.

What are the odds that Hasbro would sue McDonald's over this?

Come over to my DeviantART. we have ponies.

According to an interview by M A L on the subject of Discord, he said to the effect that he would always have a nasty streak and that he doesn't consider himself good or evil. Basically that he does what he does because it's fun and can only relate to others if he has a personal connection like Fluttershy.

So in a sense he wasn't turned good because he considers himself neither, more like convinced to do chaos on the side of the ponies.

Although I find Applebloom and Sweetie ~~Bot~~Belle very, very adorable (especially the latter), somehow I don't have much affection towards Scootaloo.

Discord will always be a prankster, because that's who he is. I just think he'll be less antagonistic about it, and more like the guy at the office who loosens the bolts on your chair.

I sincerely hope we do see Discord again. It'll be really interesting to see how they adapt to him and vice versa.

I actually surprised that we didn't see him Season 3 finale.

Twilight: Okay Discord, what the buck did you do this time?

Discord: What? I didn't do anything. Yet.

#358772 kegisak Fri, 19th Apr '13 11:46:34 AM

...maybe it's just me, but if anything I think that'd make ponies like him less. Like, to my mind it's hard to really hate an evil overlord on a personal level. You can find them morally repugnant and stuff, but like... do any of us properly hate Hitler, or Stalin? I dunno, I suppose it'd probably different if I knew those people personally, but I still kinda feel like, emotion-wise, "You're evil!" And "You're kind of a dick" are pretty different.

#358773 Sereg Fri, 19th Apr '13 11:50:48 AM from South Africa

Here's how I see it. Discord saw no benifit in being good because he ould get anything he wanted at anytime. Fluttershy gave him something he'd never had before. S He then took it away and he realised A: He couldn't just take it back. B: Now that he knew what he was missing, he wanted it.

It's less that he's "become good" and more that he's "become motivated to want to impress Fluttershy".

Anybody who has any personal link to anyone who suffered because of them sure does. Granted in a few generations they'll be as much of a fictional character as Genghis Khan or Blackbeard, but yeah.

Discord could probably endear himself a bit if he used his reality warper powers for good. You know, like creating food out of thin air or fixing medical problems.
