:O

Wow. We'd definitely be friends! We'd be Keepers Of The Books in the library and Twilight would be our favorite customer.

If I got transported to their world I would probably ask for directions to Carousel Boutique.

If Ponies became real because it no such thing as ponies in real world this would mean that alien invasion on Earth have started and Ponies come here to help as. (I had dream about that so now for me is only way how Ponies can be in our world).

That sounds exactly like the Conversion Bureau. (Except for the ponification process, anyway.)

I don't know what I'd be, really...Maybe Fluttershy's assistant in taking care of animals? Then again, Angel most likely wouldn't like me...

I'd probably be either a librarian or a writer. If I came from this world, I'd probably chronicle the history of the human world or something. I make no promises about the accuracy.

If I came in MLPFIM I'd become really derpesed because I'd become human in MLPFIM , and that one of the ideas I really hate plus lampsheding this irony.

Really the easy thing to do is do check to see if they have equivalents of our Earth pop culture books/movies. If they don't, plagiarize.

I might try to get into photography. Although I don't know how competitive that field is in Equestria

Well there are all those paparazzi ponies in Green Isn't Your Color, so they at least have cameras.

Just rewatched Swarm of the Century (one of my favourite episodes tbh) I have but 3 observations:

1.) The behaviour of the Parasprites came off as rather inconsistant. They seem really cheerful and eager to cuddle into ponies when they're few in number, but suddenly become destructive when there's lots of them. Also, Rarity was somehow able to get them to work for her, and yet...

2.) Fluttershy couldn't. The pony whose special talent is animals couldn't tame the parasprites. Why?

3.) Pinkie ruined everything. Ok, I'll buy that Applejack's herding of the parasprites just transferred the problem to Fillydelphia, but Rainbow Dash's tornado honestly seemed to be working, and if it wasn't for Pinkie's cymbals, then the issue would've been solved right then. More blatant Pinkie favouritism... ok not really, but it did skeeve me off a little, especially her attitude throughout the episode (seriously, even if we forget her blatant Communications failure with the rest of the cast; she works at sugar cube corner, yet she was eating the banquet?)

The best part of the episode was definitely Celestia's WTF face at the end.

Maybe it isn't that the parasprites are against cuddling when there are a lot of them, its that the ponies are too busy freaking out to let them. They were fine cuddling up to Rainbow Dash, but she was shaking them off. And at Twilight's house, there were a lot sleeping next to her and Spike, the rest might have figured that there wasn't any more room there, and went off to make a mess. Then Twilight cast a spell that lets them eat anything, and they were distracted by the sudden buffet.

As for Pinkie screwing things up, what was the long term plan there? Have Rainbow Dash continue that tornado forever? They would have had to deposit them somewhere eventually, and that's just moving the problem somewhere else.

^^1) Swarm behavior is a weird thing with almost every species, really. It doesn't really make sense, no, but there's also no sense in one easily-swattable flying creature making a nuisance of itself, while an entire swarm of creatures are hard to kill.

2) A Stare would have overpowered any one parasprite's mind, I imagine. =D

3)I don't think the problem in Fillydelphia was caused by the girls, was it? It's been a while since I saw the episode, but I thought that was finished with before Celestia arrived.

deposit them into the everfree forest? Which is what Pinkie does in the end

The ball of parasprites that Applejack made. It's implied that it rolled into Fillydelphia

I think there's a trope relating to how the problem can't be solved before the episode's over. And would you have felt fulfilled if it was that easy?

^I don't think that's a trope so much as a rule of fiction, really...

Well, I guess that explains why we never see Zecora after that episode.

Would've been less annoying than Pinkie's ridiculously Poor Communication Skills

Is it weird to wonder how many LGBT bronies there are?

What're they?

Yes. Yes it is.

^^LGBT means Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual or Transsexual.

It's not so much weird as it is needless to wonder; I don't really think it matters what portion of the fanbase identifies as LGBT, simply because it's not really relevant to the show. (Incidentally, there's at least one.)

Me too

A Xavier B is a gay brony.

It sprung from a series of mind-leaps brought on by a thread in Yack Fest.

Anyway, I too found Pinkie's behavior throughout "Swarm of the Century" irritating and stupid
