I understand your frustration, Apple Bloom, but if you don’t watch your language, I’m going to help you get your cutie mark in eating soap.

And you know what else ponies probably get stereotyped as? Celestia’s witnesses. Your just chilling in your dragon cave or your mountain top Gripphon nest watching the game, when some friggin ponies show up at your door for the fourth times this month and start yammering on about their pretty pretty sun Goddess. And you gotta let them talk and take the pamphlet becuase you’re in a cave or a nest and those things don’t have doors. And as soon as they’re gone you toss the sample Sun Bible into the fireplace. No wonder everyone else avoids Equestria like the plague.

Just kinda picture the events of “Magical Duel”, but set in Gripphon Land, with Gilda in Trixie’s place and Rainbow Dash in Twilight’s. Everything is done, apologies have been exchanged… And then the Gripphon police chop of Gilda’s head while the ponies look on in shock/horror.
 
“What, you thought an apology would get her off the hook? See, this is why the entire world hates you guys! You treat serious crimes like family spats, and family spats like serious crimes.”
 
Joking aside, that would probably be the biggest source of friction between Equestria and other nations. There are a shit load of dangerous magical things lying around Equestria, from Discord’s statue to the cloning pool, and very little is done to keep them from causing mayhem and destruction. Just imagine if the other races found out about how Nightmare Moon was defeated. They’d probably flip and think Celestia left all their countries in the hooves of a neurotic grad student.

I want bucking right off the mark, cutie.

@Trickquestion  
Sounds like a fun headcanon. I don’t think all ponies are that idiotic all the time, but it would make sense that other species would stereotype them like that. Ponies don’t exactly give off the best image when it comes to levelheadedness or intelligence.

You know Napsack, I’ve got this Headcanon of mine that, amongst other species (Gripphons, Minotaurs, etc) Ponies have reputations for being stupid, fanatically single minded trouble makers, becuase they so far seem to be the only creatures who have cutie marks (making them all one trick ponies). They all despise the nation of Equestria but don’t dare to threaten becuase they think Celestia will drop the sun on them.

LANGUAGE LITTLE MISSY!

@Trickquestion  
Pretty much. Now they have two, so there’s half as much chance they’ll all get screwed by their own batshit stupidity.

You have a point, Napsack. Do you ever get the feeling that Equestria would have been torn apart long ago by its batshit insane/incredibly stupid citizens if their God Empress did not exist in the flesh to keep everything under some semblance of control?

@Trickquestion  
To be fair, all the adults are too. Leading by example is a terrible concept in Equestria.

Maybe if you stopped doing random shit and focused on the thing that not only every other immediate family member has a cutie mark for, but is right in your own name, you’d get it.
 
Why are all the children in this town stupid?

Keep talking like that and you’ll get a cutie mark in swearing!

Watch your fucking language
