I've always wondered about how Equestrian Economics works. It's very strange by the standards of our world.
If there is anything that you are alone in thinking, it's "thinking that you're alone in thinking of your theories".

@Crowlover

No, but you remind me of The fox antelopes when I was on Ba sing se.

Have you seen Aang around here?

Hi Orion. Did you know, some humans were talking about you just now? They wanted to know if you were a bunch of stars and wore a bow on your head. But I don't think you're a bunch of stars.

But the currency makes no sense. It should have subdivisions so that you can make change. It's absurd to charge 1 bit for a tomato, because then the smallest possible price increment is to double the price!

so, Pinkie and Twi, think if you two work together you could find some way to get past that "fourth wall" so we can have a massive party together?

Sorry, but I can't say I've seen Aang recently. I heard he died a while back.

By the way, can you tell us the story of what happened to Zuko's mother?

@storyyeller

It's a very simple system based on the needs of public VS the various ponies with producing talents.

Well, we can get through it this way, so Pinkie could probably whip something up if you really want it...

Yes Pinkie, I am aware. First off, it's not a bow tie. It's a bow and arrow. Second, yes, there are a bunch of stars there. However, I'm referring to the myth behind the constellation. Is Orion a human?

I went to go buy some food here. Your money is confusing. A bit gets you a tomato or a pie. Nice and simple.

@Ilsemmr Thanks for the offer of apple pie, its one of my favourite! Looking forward to it. Have a t-shirt.

Oh did anyone else see that bag of magic food? I want that. Yum...

@Crowlover You mean that play on ember island?.

I guess it was ok, the ending was bad and the actress that played me was very melodramatic. I am not that sentimental and dramatic.

Our money is confusing? What about the crazy prices you ponies have? A cherry can cost anything from a bit to twenty bits. That's just unreasonable.

Yeah. i'll buy the ingredients later, since I only have sugar with me right now... Unless you want just sugar? Anyway, I'll send you the apple pie through the mail. I heard your pegasus, Derpy Hooves is very competent with that sort of thing ^^

HEY DOES THE FACT THAT I AM NOW USING A PICTURE OF ONE OF YOUR EARTH EQUINES ALLOW ME TO POST HERE?

ALTHOUGH I'M NOT QUITE SURE WHY I'D EVEN WANT TO WASTE MY TIME WITH YOU LOAD OF WIGGLER-SHOW WATCHING BRAINPAN FRIED DUMBASSES

FUCK I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHY I'M POSTING HERE.

IT'S ONLY A MATTER OF FUCKING TIME BEFORE THAT BLUEBLOOD EQUIPHILE DROPS BY ANYWAY.

YOU KNOW WHAT, FUCK IT. I'D RATHER BE ON THE METEOR THAN DISCUSS PONIES WITH THAT GUY.

@Katara Well, glad to see you got over it. You seemed a lot madder about it originally, especially that the writer was a Zutara shipper.

From Equestria. They broke the fourth wall. I am amused.

And is there anything to the rumor that you have an ongoing romance with Applejack's cousin, Braeburn?

Some ponies spread a rumor that Twilight's brother is marrying a dragon who is secretly three ponies. But I think they're just mean meanieheads who want to make Twilight feel bad.

Who the heck is the Orz?

We are Orz! Orz are happy *people energy* from the outside. Inside is good. Six *pieces* myself did not even *smell* this *string*. It is so silly! It is such a *happy town*. And then the *pink bubbles* made a *slippery place* and Orz can *smell* it. Pushed the *fingers* into *new level* and there are so many *campers*. This is *everything story* you want to know.
