My Little Pony General

[Anthon1996]

Well, Applejack told her to destroy the barn one time, so it seems quite easy to convince her to try and help out and, y' know, better herself, seeing as how she is the Element of Loyalty. So with that, it would've been better to just talk to her.

 

[ShroudedOne]

So...it's wrong that a connection to the pet that took the time to slow down and help her in a life or death situation?

Beros, an attempt is all I'm asking for, really. They just assumed that she wouldn't listen. Maybe, maybe not. But at least give her the benefit of the doubt, right?

 

[Geoberos]

Didn't they try to talk to her within the episode? And when they did, Dash just continued ranting about all her glorified heroics and completely ignored the rest of the mane 6 as if they were not saying anything at all?

Edit: Went through the scenes before Mare Do Well's appearance, yeah they didn't confront her yet about it. But it was clear as day that Dash didn't care about anything else, but being a hero within the however-many-saves Dash had done.

 

[Leaf.]

At least you agreed Dash was the perfect ***** in the episode. Just as characterized.

Yeah, I'd say Rei and Espy are pretty good Dashes.

Loving someone that saved your life is perfectly fine. But if it takes something as big as saving your life for you to give someone a chance, then something is very wrong and you're a **** like Dash.

 

[Espy Rose]

So now we have 3 Gates.
Perfect.

 

[Geoberos]

This Loyalty is the opposite of Betrayal. Does not include tooting your own horn and not listening to your friend's suggestions.

 

[Anthon1996]

I didn't notice them trying to talk to her in that episode at all.

 

[Espy Rose]

That's what made it such a good episode.

 

[Leaf.]

That's what made it such a good episode.

Wow Rainbow Dash, you're so Rainbow Dash, Rainbow Dash.

 

[Anthon1996]

Honestly, what would you rather have, a tortoise or a falcon? Obviously the falcon, because falcons are better than tortoises in every imaginable way. Now, what if that tortoise saved your life? That must mean that the thing actually cares about you, so you would go for the tortoise, right? Hell, she even put a propeller on it. Celestia forbid it crashes into somepony.

 

[BSP]

Oh boy, more discussion on Dash

Why not talk about somepony else for a while?

 

[Espy Rose]

Wow Rainbow Dash, you're so Rainbow Dash, Rainbow Dash.

Nailed it on the first click, btw.
Felt amazing.

 

[Anthon1996]

.....So does that mean I win?

[collapse=Also, this.]

[/collapse]

How about a Fluttershy discussion now?

 

[ShroudedOne]

I couldn't understand that all that well.... Jesus, I've gotten stupid.

 

[Espy Rose]

Pretty neat.
I'd rather just pretend it works like Pokemon.

 

[Frolossus]

too much bio for me
>:

i prefer pinkie pie physics

Oh my goooooood.

 

[BSP]

tl;dr version - A cross between two of the same species do not always result in the offspring of the same species as the parents

Good enough for me

Oh my goooooood.

**** you Skippy. Also that circus line killed me, lol.

 

[Gates]

yes, there is a character who's better than Spike, Gates

WHAT

So now we have 3 Gates.
Perfect.

Well they're not talking about dragons or complaining about mods, so I don't see any similarities.

[collapse=Also, this.]

[/collapse]

Still doesn't make any bucking sense to me.

Also, you realize that it's still like a 1% chance (3/256) to have twins of those specific species right?

Pretty neat.
I'd rather just pretend it works like Pokemon.

Same species as the mother, same TM/HM moves as the father, level-up moves if both parents know them, random IVs from each parent, 50% chance to inherit the mother's nature if she's holding an everstone, 60% chance of a mother with a hidden ability passing down a hidden ability, 1 in 8192 chance to get a shiny?

Yes, that's much simpler.

 

[Phoenix Lord']

Everything was explained several pages ago by Slush. The whole thing is extremely simple as long as you read One Piece.

 

[Heartstring]

Or listened in school

 

[Leaf.]

Oh boy, more discussion on Dash

Why not talk about somepony else for a while?

Nope, we need to make sure EVERYPONY knows Dash is a *****.

 

[Zatchiel]

I've seen *****ier, so Dash doesn't subjugate that aspect as much as people imply.

 

[Leaf.]

Nope, Dash = Satan.

 

[Zatchiel]

Diabolical at most, but Satan =/= *****iest.

 

[~automatic]

Oh boy, more discussion on Dash

Pinkie changed the newborn Cake's diapers with her mouth.

WITH HER MOUTH.

 

[Leaf.]

You have a terrible attention to detail.

 

[Reizilla]

I would honestly take the tortoise. Those things are awesome. I mean, come on, the thing came with it's own shades.

This.

 

[Zatchiel]

What detail? It's Dash we're talking about.

 

[Dru2]

Applejack telling Dash to destroy her barn was asking Dash for help. The rest of the mane 6 trying to tell Dash she's being prideful is a matter of opinion. Regardless if that opinion is right or not, people are less inclined to listen to opinion, especially if the thing you're trying to tell them that they're being a jerk about is going to their head, in Dash's case.

Again, Dash was letting the fame and pride go to her head, so honestly, it would have been useless to try to talk to her about it.

To be perfectly honest, I doubt the Cakes have their family trees mapped out extensively enough to truly rule out inheriting recessive Pegasus or Unicorn traits (unless they're Mormons). Carrot's explanation likely only covers the family members he's aware of. But remember that the pool of possible heritage increases exponentially as you go back each generation, so you'd quickly lose track, especially since recessive traits can stick around for a long time with enough good luck.

 

[Leaf.]

In a little bit I'm gonna take some time to look at where the ancestors they are talking about will compare to where Granny Smith and her family is.

With propellers.

What this thread needs is a rap battle.

 

[john!]

rainbow dash is a *****, but she's an awesome ***** who is the second best flier in equestria, so we still love her anyway.

.....So does that mean I win?

I think that Ponyville's El Sancho is an alicorn. I feel bad for Mr. Cake.

 

[Gates]

Pinkie changed the newborn Cake's diapers with her mouth.

WITH HER MOUTH.

Changing diapers without any hands must be the worst thing in the world.

AWWW MAN! That is one bad turtle.

I love you for this.
