Stupid stuff that comes to mind that we want to post (pony version)

She’s gonna put some dirt in your eye

While backing up my pony leak files (which I still haven’t read most of) I just noticed that the original title for Daring Doubt was apparently “He Neighed, She Neighed”.

That is all.

I started watching new episodes of MLP around mid-late Season 2, but the episode that got me hooked on the show was A Canterlot Wedding.

Mines was the first episode off of Netflix back when Season 4 just started

My first episode was Green Is Not Your Color during Summer of 2011

I joined during the 3-week break between Call of the Cutie and Fall Weather Friends, watching all 12 episodes released so far in one go.

I first joined during Season 2 sometime around Read it and Weep (I wasn’t keeping track which episodes were released, but I do remember trying a Daring Do desktop background), but then someone convinced me to stop watching because “it’s for girls”. Later, I rejoined, this time more permanently, at The Crystal Empire.

Got in during the hiatus between S1 and S2

Post S4 hiatus

Late 2015 when it was nearing the end of the 5th Season

By the time I joined this fandom the show ended years ago.
(I got into a little over a month ago)

Season 1, right before the first finale.

I got in after “Friendship is Magic Part 1”, then forgot about it until just before “Call of the Cutie”.

Season 2 finale/season 3 premier for me

When did Spike go from a short, wimpy baby dragon to being built like an 80s Shonen protagonist?

Anchor arms duh.

I’m finding myself wishing yet again that I’d watched the show from the start.

Twilight’s ‘original storyline’ was the most enjoyable for me in hindsight, for reasons that are better off in the venting thread. So it’d have been even better to watch it from the beginning until her apotheosis, instead of already knowing she became a princess, defeated Sombra, fought changelings and redeemed Luna before I even watched my first episode.

On the fanon side, as much as I love the Remains fangame, it’d also have been nice to read Fallout Equestria as it updated. Instead of already knowing all the big events before I started reading it more for history’s sake than because I was actually interested.

On the other hand, I’m also wishing that G4 didn’t monopolize my inspiration like a creative black hole. I’ve not brainstormed fanworks about anything else since 2013, despite discovering several new things since then.

Kinda like me not updating my own fics in years

Imagine if Twilight Sparkle had a mid Atlantic accent? Like Rarity’s but more calm and professional. Since Canterlot folks like to do that voice.

I’d like to hear Tara Strong do one.

I feel like she has, what with the amount of characters she’s voiced throughout her career.

@Cosmas-the-Explorer
Twilight probably refuses to do it because it’d make her sound snobby.

How popular are Big Mac and Shining Armor in the fandom?

I would say Big Mac is one of, if not the most popular male Pony in G4.
As for Shining Armour, considering all the art of him here I would also say he’s pretty popular.

@Background Pony #B89A
Very popular
