Celestia can take criticism in stride. Unless:

1. It's from Luna

2. It concerns how all that cake she eats goes right to her flanks.

"I Like Big Butts and I Cannot Lie." is banned in Canterlot castle.

Here is the talking Nightmare Moon toy. Sadly, she doesn't say "The night will last forever!" Really, Hasbro? That was a freebie!

I like to think the reminding about the hair thing at the end is a subtle threat to little girls if they don't style the mane of the Dark Goddess of the Night, she'll eat her parents.

I understand the cake, but where does this Celestia having a enerous flank fanon coming from?

It's John Joseco, isn't it?

Evening everyone, what's up?

Actually, it's that somebody noticed Celestia' flank seems to actually be getting bigger between seasons. And then there was the ideai ntroduced by Ponyville Confidential that she loves her cakes, so...

Oh hnnnnng, my heart.

In completely unrelated news, after signing a crapload of paperwork today, I now own two cars, and my house is paid for (something about the person we were buying it from going bankrupt and the finance company agreeing on the tax value issue). Good times.

@D Roy: It was a general joke in the fandom, especially after the Cakelestia scenes. JJ did help popularize it, but he was far from the only one.

Then someone noticed that her behind really does seem to be getting bigger each season. It's probably just more that they're tweaking her exam, but it's still amusing.

Good thing too. Her flank was woefully thin in season one.

How do you pronounce a muffin?

Who invited Diamond Tiara is what I'm concerned about.

They're really going out of their way to never use her name again.

Had no idea Diamond Tiara had a middle name.

Speaking of, we need a sympathetic episode starring the duo. Come on, their the only villains who haven't been shown to have any redeaming qualities for no particular reason. At least Sombra was an evil overlord and Flim and Flam are good businessstallions.

Flim and Flam are not good business stallions. If they were they'd mass produce their cider maker and lease the things out to apple farms across Equestria for a rate more reasonable than 50%. They have a good product but they won't market it properly because they're stuck in a con man mindset.

And Silver Spoon at least has been shown to be somewhat sympathetic. She's only really mean because of her association with Diamond Tiara.

DAMN, I'M LATE! Hola, young broncos. What's up? Couldn't get on this morning because life and family are a bitch.

I've read a few fics pointing out that their being stuck in a con-man mindset was the only reason they lost that contest, and AJ knows exactly how close it came.

They're children. Children are evil little fuckers.

Angelica. 'Nuff said.

@Whathisgame: Is that really the back of the 2nd Favorites Collection? Okay, that's just hilariously obvious that they don't want to mention her name. I imagine kids who don't know about the Derpy fanon stuff are going to think her name is Muffin or something. (which could also be a pony name but it wouldn't match her cutie mark at all)

And yet the Toys R Us website lists her name as Derpy for the vinyl figure of her.

Do you know how that picture was found? Because it's a set I'm REALLY looking forward to and am very eager to know exactly when in August it comes out or if it can be pre-ordered yet.

The part of their brains that makes them human beings with empathy and thought for others has not developed yet.

...yes. Children are scientifically psychopathic. A sobering thought.

Children are inherently psychopaths?

That explains a lot of my behaviour towards them.

Yet somehow, I feel Diamond is insecure because she can't make friends by being nice and being her real self. So she bullies blank flanks which impresses popular girls to gain respect.

Ah, I've been wondering what they put on the back of the Chrysalis box set next to Derpy's vector. All hail Artist Formally Known as Muffin!

Also, they have a show accurate vector for Lyrica, a somewhat obscure background pony, but they go with Twilight Sparkle Palette Swap for Lyra, the 2nd or 3rd most famous background pony depending who you ask? Another exciting episode in MLP toys!

People keep saying this, but it's just not true. Sure Silver is the less proactive of the bullies, but she's always been just as mean towards the CMC as Diamond, and has never shown any inclination towards any other sort of personality. The ONLY time she was shown to have anything remotely resembling Hidden Depths is when she clapped for Granny Smith during the school presentation... and honestly I figure that's probably just because the writers told the animators to "make all the ponies clap except Diamond Tiara."

Does she get any respect that way though? She's never actually been shown to have any friends besides Silver and Babs.

Silver Spoon had a Pet the Dog moment. Nothing more, nothing less.

Its enough for fans to think she's secretly nice.
