Yea I saw it more of a thanksgiving/columbus day/christmas hybrid, without the subjugation of the indigenous population of course... (Hmm.. what if the ponies displaced some other species?)
#106553BluespadeFri, 24th Feb '12 11:10:07 PMfrom Texas
Cows, sheep, and pigs?
#106554EmidawgFri, 24th Feb '12 11:12:11 PM
Hmm.. maybe. You noticed that in "A Friend in Deed" the cow buying cookies wasnt inside of the shop, maybe there is Pony racism that says they arent allowed inside
#106555PannicFri, 24th Feb '12 11:15:49 PM
Hm. Idea - maybe no racism, but "pony privilege." Like the doors all being pony-sized.
Sorta like how in real life there's white privilege, with things like "flesh-colored band-aids."
#106556EmidawgFri, 24th Feb '12 11:19:13 PM
Sounds plausible. I cant really see ponies being racist but I can see a consequential Pony priveledge where they build things to suit themselves and dont take other species into account. Ponies are the majority so its probably not intentional.

Wasn't she walking inside? Pinkie interrupted her.

^She was walking inside, then Pinkie hopped out and she stopped on the stairs so she wouldn't run into the bouncing mass of energy.
...I liked the Derpy talk more than racist ponies. >.>
Can you think inside the chimney?

Ill have to watch it again I got the impression she was waiting outside for service when I first saw it.

Honestly the whole point of that scene was probably to dispel the idea that the cows and such are lower class citizens.
#106561Perpetual LurkerFri, 24th Feb '12 11:26:38 PM
Yeah, that scene probably had the largest concentration of different speaking species in the whole series, because aside from the cow there was also Zecora and Matilda.

I dunno I like to think sometimes. Like what if Equestria was originally home to Chimera (Draconequis?) and when the ponies came they drove them to extinction or something. Discord is the last of his species and was driven insane because his people were all gone so he decided to make the ponies as miserable as he was.
Im just bored and tired dont mind me.

In the GRIM DARKNESS of Equestria there is nothing but ponies...

Good thing I checked all the pony blogs first. That way I knew I could skip a few pages in this thread.
I got a haircut this afternoon.

It's not really a big deal to me, I just think it's kinda stupid to go back and retcon something so minor.
Hey, I stayed out of the initial argument.

And just when I thought we were done here...
#106570EmidawgFri, 24th Feb '12 11:50:50 PM
Im sure its going to come back in fits and starts because of the international community. We'll get a new RAGE for every timezone
And with that I bid you all good night, 12 hour shift is over and Im going try and stay awake long enough to drive myself home.
