Re: penguinponies — They still fly. It's just that they do it underwater.

Incidentally, this is the song repeating in my head right now.

@Applelight: The final verdict seems to be, "I don't think so".

@Apple: We've talked about it several hundred thread pages ago, I think

Penguinponies are a cute idea, I should try drawing some next weekend or something.

Water Wings would be the dude that was originally a batpony? I've kind of forgotten the rest by now.

I'm not sure penguin flippers would look like a good substitute for bird wings, in terms of aesthetics.

Wait, go there? Are not brought there? So they're like, wild horses?

Cool.

Well penguins pretty much just fly underwater, so I don't know why that wouldn't work. I'd think that adjusting to the water pressure and density would be more of a problem.

Water wings is a Pegasus lifeguard who can't fly very well but is an amazing swimmer. Orginally he was black and white like a penguin but after I ditched pie bald colouring (too hard to do right) he's now red. Or safety orange. That sort of colour.

Oh, and on the keys...the lifeguards are like the coast guard.

@JT: The same thaumic displacement principle that naturally breaks the air to enable flight also works underwater. It's more strenuous but more effective.

Does that mean a water pegasus can swim faster than a normal pegasus can fly?

It'd tire them out, but yes.

#385115 kegisak Tue, 23rd Jul '13 7:22:54 AM

Well, they'd also have more pressure to work through in front of them, so I wouldn't think so.

#385116 Ace Of Scarabs Tue, 23rd Jul '13 7:25:39 AM from Singapore

Like I said, more exhausting due to the higher density and pressure underwater, but the displacement effect is more effective precisely because the water is more substantial.

I'm sure Twi and Dashie would LOVE to have some kind of Mythbusters going around checking facts and myths with practical experiments.

Complete with Adam and Jamie ponies.

I'm guessing Adam is a unicorn and Jamie is an earth pony, but they could be be anything.

Post of the Day #446

So far I've felt somewhere between "meh" and "it kind of stands out" as a first impression for all the songs this season. Becoming Popular managed to grow on me after some replays, though, so I guess I'd put it at the top, with the rest close enough together that I can't really give a definitive order.

Winter Wrap Up is my favourite season 1, although there might be a bit of biase, seeing as how that was also the episode that really pushed me into the fandom. After that, I'd probably say Gala and Art of the Dress are tied, followed by Singing Telegram, then So Many Wonders, then Giggle at the Ghostie (used to be among my least favourite, but grew on me as well), then the rest.

Life is simple: it has no nontrivial normal subgroups.
