Still catching up but on the Gilda vs Trixie argument, I'm putting my vote in for Trixie. She's just such a Large Ham that you can't help but love her.

Goodnight, everybody.

And yeah, in all seriousness, the vast majority of the morals actually do line up with standard (read: not the crazy ones) Christian values. I mean, the Elements of Harmony actually line up with the Fruits of the Holy Spirit pretty well.

I mean:

Love = Friendship (magic)

joy = laughter

faithfulness = loyalty

kindness = kindness (duh)

Honesty and Generosity don't have a one-to-one correlation there, but those are definitely traditional Christian virtues.

Okay, I'm going to stop with the religion stuff now. Just thought it was interesting to note.

Internet died, forced to use phone, glad to see Arha has entered the enlightened state: Twilight is best pony, Rainbow is no good.

Good night friends that must leave.

Nah, Rainbow is good, just not as good as some of the other ponies. You're totally right about Twilight being best pony, though.

Good night, Applelight.

[up][up][up]Twilight would still be best pony for me, if it weren't for what happened in Lesson Zero. She dropped two whole ranks on the Mane Six scale because of it.

For this episode, Applejack and Rarity do not really appear to be opposite sides of the cleanliness/dirty spectrum. What's that trope called again? I know it happened in Avatar.

Still, while that's what they seem to think, Applejack seems to be insisting on efficiency during work and Rarity on courtesy and appearances.

Twilight is oddly oblivious this episode.

I just realized something! Next episode is going to be Reading Rainbow!

Applejack and Rarity are both getting things done; it's just a question of focused, but very slow detail work versus fast, effective and sloppy big-picture work. I actually like how it's not as clear-cut as clean versus dirty, really.

^Oh no.

Take a look, it's in a book it's a reading rainbooooooow~

Yeah, I'm just referring to how the two seem to be viewing their conflict along those lines when it's simply not actually the case.

I remeber that episode Twilight was completely unaware of the fight. I think her inexperience woth friendship had something to do with that.

Just paste the url of an image hosted on the tvtropes server. Which image are you talking about? If it's the Twilight reaction image, here it is:

Also, Lesson Zero is one of the best episodes, in my opinion. As somebody who's a grad student, I found Twilight's breakdown perfectly believable; if I had magic powers I'd probably have done that several times in college.

EDIT: Getting rid of the image now because it's redundant.

It’s highly probable that Satan has chosen [Lauren] Faust to be his modern-day emissary of evil. The signs are clear.

[up][up]Of course I dislike Rarity, but she makes such fun faces like in Dragonshy or Lesson Zero.
