Post your random thoughts.

Not that kind of vermin.

And how exactly would he make that happen? The total equine population of the entire world in 2007 was 58 million. The US equine population in 2006 was 9.5 million; as of today the US Census Bureau shows a US human population of just under 325 million.

Either there's some seriously scuzzy breeding program that would need to be started, or he's got some secret portal to Equestria.

That would be very cool.

And also slavery :V

Why would there be slavery? :S

Can't watch the video now, but does he ever mention also adopting legislation that would grant legal personhood and the accompany rights to the ponies?

At the moment, if what I recall from Vsauce is correct, when it comes to (say) extraterrestrial life, at the moment a private citizen could, upon meeting such, kill it and eat it for dinner because it would not count as murder.

Kind of sounds like why District 9 didn't make sense.

Well the proclamation is that everybody gets to own a pony. Ergo, they would en-masse take the ponies and force them over here.

Yeah, these ponies are sapient. They should get the same rights as humans, and shouldn't be treated like property. By owning a pony, you're basically putting them in slavery.

Arguing the political implications of the promises of a presidential candidate who wears a boot on his head is kind of amazing.

It's good practice, I think.

EDIT: New random thought - why don't Pokeballs work on humans?

That's something I'm not sure of either. What makes a Pokeball work on a Vileplume but not on any random plantlife? What about the artificial Pokemon? Where do we draw the line between a simple A.I. and Porygon? What differentiates a Klink and random machinery? What does the synthetic Pokemon Type: Null, program Pokemon Porygon, and manmade Pokemon Magearna have that the Pokeball recognizes that lets them be caught?

We discussed that once in Pokémon's Headscratchers section, actually. The scientists who invented the Pokéballs went through a lot of trial and error to make sure they only worked on Pokémon. Otherwise, kidnappers would be having a field day.

Literally crying.

I wonder what my parents would think were I to ask for these◊.

And are the makers sure that all prototypes of those that didn't distinguish humans apart were destroyed or otherwise accounted for?

Probably not worse than when I told my parents I have one of these◊ in my cubicle at the office.

You're the second person that brought up Kyubey in response to that plush =_=

'Cause he's cute.／人◕ ‿‿ ◕ 人＼

I just finished watching this fun video. :) It made me remember something. I think my brother and I played that game just for the disasters. ^_^;;

Thinking on it, I'm not the only one who'd think a Whimsicott plushie'd be cute, right?

What is it with Pandora and Ghostbusters lately? :S

Halloween?

I wouldn't mind a Neco Arc plush. Although Armored Warfare's fanbase is convincing me on the virtues of plush tanks.

As of today I'm now paying more for health insurance than rent.

GG America.

Are you in the Medicaid Gap or is your federal subsidy failing to bring your skyrocketing premium down to affordability?

Glorious Nation of NC, almost everyone here is in the gap.
