@Dark: You can ride me. I will be careful. I promise I won't fly.

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

Is it true that horses aren't smart enough to know when the rider will fit either?

Well, looking at the topic, but I think I've slipped into the equine phase a tad late.

Probably. Real-life horses are basically dumb as posts to the last of them. Full of personality, though, and you apparently get the odd one who's feindishly clever

Though if you're getting at what I think you're getting that, that is, no knowing if their rider will clear something, I can hardly blame them for that. I mean, it's not like you're a part of them. if I set a three-foot-tall cat on top of your head you might not always know if it would clear a doorframe.

I'd say horses aren't exactly dumb. They're pretty smart when they get to thinking. It's just they don't really seem to like thinking, and end up doing stupid things due to that.

Oh, the thread? Don't worry, it's just dead.

My grandpa used to have horses that I rode a few times. It's been years since then though.

I never really had a horse phase. Dinosaurs, though...

That gets me thinking, riding a pegasus would be scary as fuck. Those little demons can go at supersonic speeds and those pretty rainbooms will be covered in human remains, as there's no way in Tartarus they could survive the G-force.

Seriously, what the hell was Megan thinking?

Maybe Equestria makes everything hardcore, not just ponies.

I didn't really like G2. Too...real.

Well, Pegasi can carry carts and junk through the air, so their pegasi power must extend to objects they're touching.

The laws of physics in general tend to work differently as well.

Damn it Orion, stop masturbating. We need to know if you payed attention in physics class, this is important.

@Dark: I... what? Preening wings is like combing hair, only more delicate.

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

I have to hit the hay for now. Just let me know if you need anything, Orion.

How well would you even be able to ride on a pegusus? Is there a way to sit so that your legs aren't getting in the way of the wings?

#377517 Japanese Teeth Thu, 20th Jun '13 8:29:52 PM from Meinong's jungle

I'm sure there is, although it would require balance.

How big are ponies compared to humans anyway?

Priceless!

#377519 orionaurora Thu, 20th Jun '13 8:32:49 PM from Andromeda Galaxy

I'm about 5 -sudden coughing- tall.

#377520 Crowfall Thu, 20th Jun '13 8:37:44 PM

I generally consider them as being between three and four feet tall.

#377521 storyyeller Thu, 20th Jun '13 8:39:29 PM from Appleloosa

3-4 feet is the consensus, based on repeated measurements in comparison to other objects in the show, including the 8 foot candy cane.

#377522 Japanese Teeth Thu, 20th Jun '13 8:44:09 PM from Meinong's jungle

Yeah, several different comparisons have been made, and almost all of them place an average pony at between 3 and 4 feet tall.

Sounds good. I assume Celestia and Luna are around 5-6 feet then?

Priceless!

#377524 Darkabomination Thu, 20th Jun '13 8:51:50 PM from the darkest of the hillside thickets

Sounds about right.

And which episode is there a 8 foot candy cane?
