Thanks, I think so too. I really like analyzing characters beyond their surface characteristics and demonstrate why their strengths make them appealing.

Yeah I agree.

Now me, I do find her genuinely funny (big kid at heart here), cute, and she has a posititive outlook on life which I admire greatly.

the humanisations of her make me very happy too. VERY happy.

One of the great things this show is how rare it is for any character anaylis to fall apart based on latter information (if that makes any sense). The characters are consistant in both their depth and their surface apperance.

Why don't you try apologizing instead, and trying to see why CDRW was offended in the first place?

Christ! I left for about 5 seconds. What the fuck happened?!

Like hell he's going to accept my apology. I've crossed the Moral Event Horizon in his eyes.

He's not leaving permanently. This is a bit of an overreaction for hurting someone's feelings on the internet.

Don't feel that way Apple Pie! I am at least as responsible as you are in that.

I can't say anything about Pinkie's character. Since everyone already knows.

But I will say that I heartily agree with that summary of her in principle, even if I personally find a lot of her actions more annoying than funny

I don't think Pinkie always does the best thing for her friends, but I can certainly say she does what she thinks is the best thing for her friends.

I do wonder what Pinkie's life philosophy is. It is probably along the lines of happiness in the most important thing in the world, so making others happy is a very valuable thing.

The internet is the realm of chaos, but not all chaos is evil.

#84667 Applelight Limited Tue, 31st Jan '12 1:27:17 PM from Manehattan to Canterlot

Joy. That's Pinkie's outlook.

Joy to others...joy to herself.

@Bad buying fuck tons of cider which she then plans to drink all by herself when she KNOWS that they always run out before everypony can get a mug is done in the best interests of her friends?

don't you say that there are no bad thoughts in her head

@ Ginger: She probably doesn't think about how if she buys a lot other ponies won't get some. Yeah, it's still a jerkish thing to do and I know it's annoying for you for her to be annoying without knowing she is but that's the way it is.

For what it's worth I agree that she's culpable even if she doesn't know she's doing wrong.

I don't think there is any bad thoughts in her head. I think that she's obivious to it. Dosn't make it right, but it's better than her doing it out of maliciousness.

Even I will agree that her actions in Luna Eclipsed, Last Roundup, and Super Speedy were pretty malicious. She KNEW she was causing Luna, AJ, and RD emotional distress and she kept doing it.

But that's what I like about characters. As well as their positive traits, they can also be dicks, and do things for selfish or less than pure reasons.

That's what I feel Pinkie is missing. At the moment she feels immune to karma. Which I don't like.

Sorry, sorry.

From this day forth, I shall always think of "Find A Pet" as "FAP".

Thanks a lot, Ginger.

Did she?

Pinkie's on a different wave length to everyone else. The consquences of her actions may not have crossed her mind.

Oh please don't give that excuse. That does not help me.

for what it's worth, I'm trying to keep myself depressed rather than angry

Badwolf! What's that Godot quote about ignorance?
