I could use some cute stories, most I've found are sad or dark.
Just if you guys know of any. Or humour.
I don't know what it is, but just about every on Eq D has been sad stories as of late.

@Storyyeller I meant people who like to exaggerate that it's the worst.

At one point, the narrator said that Cadance was "born an orphan."
Um...
“So what did your parents look like?” “I dunno. They were dead before I was born.”
“They were dead... before you were born.”
“Well, obviously, if I haven’t been born yet, I must still be dead? Duh.”
“That’s a... interesting ideology.”
“Ideology? I’m not Buddhist.”
I want "Pony Mexico" to be full of Bipedal Gila monsters. Or maybe Geckos ... so it could be like Gexico or something.
In my fanfic, Neighxico (and several nations to the south) has lots of llamas, and many ruins attesting to the former power of the Tllamapan empire.

You could arguably be born an orphan if you had a surrogate mother.

You know I'll bet Cadance is actually Scootaloo's mother. I'm pretty sure being born an orphan runs in families.
Also, Cadance is a zombie. Shining Armor didn't find out until the wedding night.

I would love to see Llamas, Alpacas, or even Camels appear in an episode. And for them to be intelligent speaking animals, not like the sheep or pigs we've seen.

The sheeps we've seen are speaking animals, though. At least, one of them was.
Pigs seem capable of communication via Hamboning, as well.

Yeah, I'd go with lamas being the dominant species in the equivalent of South America.

Per the Writers, only hoofed animals can speak. At least of the real animals.
I want to see the Viking caribou Lauren mentioned wanting to add in.

Camelids technically have toes not hooves... so I guess that means they cant talk?

Pretty much yeah. But dispite that, they are the best mathematicians in the world.

When they said that? And what about Diamond Dogs?

Not real creatures. The "only hooves" only applies to real life animals, not mythological or fantasy creatures like the DD's.
It was in one of the commentaries on the Season 1 DVD's

In other news, my CMC comic finally came in. The art is definitely the strong point, but I did like the story as well. Out of all the micro comics, it feels the most like one that could conceivably be an episode of the show if they fleshed it out a bit more.

The word was that hooved mammals and mythological creatures could talk. Apparently, either Diamond Dogs count as mythological creatures for their purposes, or the rule doesn't apply to creatures that are original to FIM.

Well even then the Mythological can talk isn't held to, since the manticore and Hydra couldn't. More, it's a case by case basis with non-real creatures.

Diamond dogs are kinda goblin-ey... I guess that makes them sorta mythological.

Well, the simple fact they don't exist in real life makes them mythological/fantasy creatures.

It seems that Faust only wanted Kosher animals to talk since she mentioned hooves and "ruminates".
Honestly find it weird that by these rules the only "livestock" type animal we see in the show that can't talk are the pigs. . .who are usually the smarter of the domesticated farm animals.

The Diamond Dogs were basically trolls, so I'm guessing they fall under the "mythical" banner. And the manticore and hydra might be different because they were monsters or something. Or they could talk, they just didn't.
Also, I stumbled across this:

Firefly is Scootaloo's mother, is an Over-Enthusiastic/AmazinglyEmbarassing Parent to the extent that Scoots has no idea how awesome she actually is, leading her to fixate on Rainbow Dash instead. Which is ironic, because Dash went to the same flight school as Firefly, just a few years behind her, and totally idolized her. One day Scootaloo will be forced to introduce her surrogate big sister to her mom, at which point hilarity will ensue.
Also, today's ATG submission. The theme is ponies putting on a play/performing.
