Ginger: I don't hate raisins so much as I'm picky about how they're prepared.

Pagetopper: Hmmm, I can't remember if I found this one through here or not, but it's so hnnnnng inducing, I'll post it anyway. Have an Applejack from my favourites.

I don't like raisins in anything. Don't like fruit in anything that isn't meant to be a dessert, either.

I thought Calvados would fit AJ because it's actually an apple-based digestive, the kind of stuff that could be more or less made at home. Plus, it has a good punch.

(And I'm okay with rum raisin, as long as it's well-made and not some cheap industrial stuff.)

Someone asked if there were any girl pony fans here, and I've mentioned it several times that I'm female. So's my avatar, and I picked it simply because Chibi-Usa is my favorite Sailor Moon character (in a platonic way, of course).

About ponies and ice cream flavors:

For some reason I associate Rarity with either raspberry ice cream (because raspberry kind of sounds like "Rarity" and it's often purple like her hair) or else mocha caramel truffle ice cream or something else that sounds fancy (I don't even know if mocha caramel truffle ice cream even exists, but it sounds fancy to me). Dark chocolate would also fit her, too, and another idea I had for Rarity was some kind of white ice cream, maybe mint, with light blue sprinkles that look like gems for her cutie mark.

Pinkie Pie is bubble gum ice cream or pretty much any other pink flavor (or a bunch of different scoops of various pink ice cream flavors stacked up on a giant cone).

Rainbow Dash is rainbow sherbet or something with rainbow sprinkles in it.

Applejack is maybe apple pie ice cream if there is such a thing.

Fluttershy is butterscotch because it's yellow and is sort of close to her name.

The one I'm drawing a blank on is Twilight, unless she's dark chocolate.

Thread Hop

I love how just walking into this thread randomly shows me the oddest of topics.

Besides the merits or rasins (I vote con myself, cant stand the little deformed grapes) whats new?

People speculating on what ice cream flavors would represent the ponies and mentioning their own ages and sexualities.

I like raisins but I've never had them in ice cream before (I don't think I'd like rum raisin because of the rum part).

I be 16 (turning 17 in April) and am pretty hetero.

If we're still talking about it...

Finding out that I'm the oldest person in this thread, it is NOT helping me cope with turning 30 next month.

Evening, fellows. As I missed the age discussion, my two cents.

Age/gender: 29/Male. I actually have to admit, while I'm not surprised we have some kids, the number of people close to my own age surprised me a bit. Seraphem, I'm just 8 months shy of 30, so you are not alone.

On the discussion of pony ice cream flavors:

Rarity: Pinot Noir Campari

Rainbow Dash: Lemon sorbet

AJ: Chocolate

Fluttershy: rose water or sweet cream

Pinky Pie: that atrocious birthday cake flavor

Twilight Sparkle: Butter Pecan

• Rarity is vanila
• Pinkie Pie is bubble gum
• AJ is rocky road
• Twilight is chocalte
• Fluttershy is mint cholate chip
• Rainbowdash is licorcie.

(I'm male, age undisclosed, and gay. Though I'm not very flamboyant, this show is probably the girliest thing I've watched in a while)

Hey, that's something to be proud of, man.

Don't worry Seraph, 30 is the new 20.

Once again, six of those years don't count

There are older people on this forum in general.

Can anyone read German?

I'm not a native speaker, but here's the best I can make out. The text is small and blurry, so I had to open it up in GIMP to zoom in.

• Rarity: We want to help you
• TS: We know the competition is important to you
• PP: Rainbow Dash, please listen to us
• AJ: Every good training has breaks
• RD: But I'm not tired
• -But with a look in the mirror-
• RD: Oh! I look like a wreck
• PP: Don't just drink this fitness muck
• AJ: Perhaps you should eat something too
• RD: Delicious. I think you're right.

• -Finally the hike can begin-
• PP: It's so nice here in the forest *
  because they are totally in a forest
• TS: So romantic
• AJ: And how do you like it Rainbow Dash?
• RD: It's super
• AJ: And tomorrow you can train completely fresh
• Spike: I told you! There's nothing like a break.
• -End-

So yeah, it basically sounds like Applebuck Season except with RD.

@Seraphem: You aren't the oldest, I'm pretty sure that Rich is 40-ish.

Also, I don't like raisins either. They're like mini-prunes. Then again, I'm not a big fan of grapes in general except for grape jelly.

When someone mentioned Sweetie Belle cooking a potato dish and possibly turning it into ashes, it made me think of something. Many people often mention how Rainbow Dash in Fi M is opposite her G3 counterpart in personality, but Sweetie Belle also has a major difference from her G3 counterpart as well. If I remember correctly, G3 Sweetie Belle was supposed to be good at cooking, while Fi M Sweetie Belle is notably VERY bad at it.

All you people and your dislike for pears, raisins, grapes, and cherries ... Why can't you see these are clearly the superior fruits? Of course, I like all types of fruit. Yes, even gooseberries. But especially dates.

Grapes fucking own, bro.

And bananas, oranges, sheeeet....

It's what I thought; the outer ring is just random letters.

Thanks Storyyeller.

Does Twilight really say "So Romantic"? These comics are so shippy.

Also Rainbow looks exactly the same throughout the comic to me.

Eh. I'm more of a fan of strawberries, mangoes, and grapes (not raisins though, ew) as far as fruits go. Have to agree that cherries are horrible though.

Pears are good, Oranges are good, Pineapples are awesome. Bananas are okay depending on how ripe/unripe they are. Strawberries are pretty good too, although they aren't my favorite. They're awesome if you dip them in cream, though.

Okay, weird thought: we know that the Apple family is distantly related to the Oranges. Does this mean that AJ other fruit-themed extended family?

What's wrong with raisins?

Pineapples make my teeth feel weird

Overripened bananas make me sad...
