Oh hey, are you new? Hi.

I'm off to bed myself now. Night.

Rarity, Fancy Pants and Spikezilla.

CHANGELING!!!

My brother's seen a few episodes, and he seems to like it well enough, but he hasn't gotten caught up in it like I have. My parents view the whole thing with a bit of amusement, but they've known for a long time things like 'target audiences' don't stop me from enjoying animation. My mum told people I'd probably be seeing Winnie the Pooh before she heard it from me... and I did go see it.

Glanco: young human!AJ and Rarity :3

I'm trying to get my brother into it. After explaining that it was made by the creator of Foster's and said person had a hand in shaping the Power Puff Girls, he's reluctantly going to give the pilot a chance.

Why are you in this thread at all then?

My sister doesn't think much of it.

I like the show... wait.

Do you even get TV Orion?

We have film but that's about it.

I saw a fic posted on EQG a few days ago where Lyra makes a tv show about humans that gets unexpectedly popular among older ponies.

That ones on my to read list.

and mine as well

What fic is that?

Do you think Equestria has gender stereotypes?

My older brother is a smartass to me about MLP, my little brother doesn't care to watch it, but he doesn't give me guff.

"Man, all the women are lesbians."

All mares need to... to... yeah, I got nothing. Gender stereotypes is hardly a thing.

The story n question's called Only Human: A Lyra Heartstrings Production. Sorry, can't seem to find the link.

@Story: I'm sure they have some, but they're probably less pronounced than they would be for humans.

By the way, how did Pinkie find out the rhyme to chant at the mirror pool? Was it ever explained?

I think she mentioned hearing about from a relative, but I might be misremembering.

The mysterious Granny Pie perhaps?

She said something about Granny Pinkie. Not sure if she's the same as Granny Pie.

You know, seeing some discussion about romance on the EQG thread {I lurk there, but I never post. You never know when I might be watching you }, I feel kind of like I should clarify why I like shipping some of the mane 6 with eatchother {Not all at once, mind you} instead of having them gain a canon romantic interest.

See, when it comes to something like Twidash or Rarijack for instance, those two charactors have well-enough established and interesting personalities that I think their interactions would be amusing and cute. But whenever someone tries to actually force romance into a Tv Show or anything else that doesn't need it, my interest plummits quickly. 98% of the time, the love interest is about as interesting as a cardboard box. When two charactors who's personalities have already been well-established are together or at least get tons of Ship tease, I don't usually mind, but most romance stuff seems to just want to suddenly introduce someone for the protagonist to fall in love with, without giving them any actual interesting personality traits.

And that's why I really don't like Flash Sentry {Besides the fact that his name is actually kind of cool and should have went to a much better charactor} from what I've heard of him. All the personality I can gather from him from what everyone has said is that he has guitar skills and is willing to be awkward for Twilight. What a great and well-thought-out charactor, totally not bland at all. Not to mention that, from the sounds of it, nothing of importance would have been lost if he was cut out of the film, which begs the question as to why he was even greated. Well, except for shoe-horning a romance plot into yet another thing that doesn't need it.

TLDR: Flash Sentry seems no diffrent then any other generic love interest that was awkwardly inserted into something that didn't need one, Whereas Mane 6 shipping can actually be intresing and amusing if handled right.
