Go To

A thread to discuss My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic and the tie-in media.

All of the usual forum rules apply. In addition, please remember that the thread is discussing a kids' show, and it's primarily focused on the work itself, not the fanfic — in particular, we don't want to see lewdness creeping in.

     Original OP text 
I don't know WHAT the Hell happened (I blame shenanigans) but we're going to start from scratch. Post your feels for this awesome show again! Naow!

This is Applejack's brother. How old is he? He sounds way older.

"How old is/are he/she/they" is a question you are NEVER going to get answered for anypony. Except one set of newborn twins later on.

And that is calm for me. I just really do not get the entire concept of "drinking game" how the fuck is it a game? What's the point beyond getting fucking drunk, if you want to do that, just do it and stop pretending otherwise.

It's a way of drinking away the pain, and making fun of what you're forcing yourself to sit through while you're doing it.

Plus, it's a game. It's for fun. You know, F is for Friend who do stuff together, etc. etc.

Nothing about drinking, or dealing with drunks, or even being near someone whose drunk, is fun for me.

[up] Not really, they're about normal size for cows.

What's wrong with drinking games? Nobody who plays them is pretending the point isn't to get drunk, they're just a way to liven up to process.

Anyway, just saw the episode. Mostly enjoyed it, although the song wasn't my favorite. Flutterbat is adorable. I like that even her cutie mark changed. We're getting an awful lot of stingers this season though. I hope they actually plan on bringing back things like the Pony of Shadows and Fluttershy's new vampire tendencies. It'll be a bit annoying if they just drop all that stuff.

As for age, my personal thoughts put most of the main cast in mid-to-late twenties... roughly. Mostly due to the societal posiions they occupy (Rarity runs her business, Twilight appears to be a grad student, etc.)

So, I would place Big Macintosh at "vague twentiesish + 3".

I have a message from another time...

Sera- sorry to hear that. :/ my dad was an alcoholic and a smoker for years, then he got leukemia and thankfully he's better now. And even when he drank he usually did it outside in a shed so we wouldn't have to deal with it. But you have my sympathy, if not empathy for your exact situation.

Yeah, overall comparison wise, early to mid twenties. Biological, who the hell knows, all depends on just how close Equestrian aging and biology is to humans in that regard. Though Word of God was that she created them thinking that mental/emotional and biological age for ponies didn't go along at the same pace as for humans.

[up]Thanks, and no, I dreaded every time she had a night off work, just because I knew she would get drunk, and being in constant fear of her exploding over stupid shit that was mostly her own damn fault, or shit she could actually do something about if she ever, well did anything besides sit around and get drunk.

My viewing was interrupted. I'll try again tomorrow.

And if they're normal sized cows then the ponies have got to be like, dogs or something.

#33545: Dec 29th 2013 at 6:56:10 PM

No, it works out to them being between 3.5-4 feet high, with the princesses being taller. about the average size of real world ponies.

Try living with it......

eah i'm sorry about that. Anymore I just.. it just gets worse and worse, and everything is always so uncertain, and any little thing could fuck me over, anyone in the house losing their job, having money issues, any major illness, anything goes wrong, and I'm fucked and have no idea what the hell i'd do, and, I just see every, damn, way shit could go wrong...

and yes I do have an anxiety disorder, and no, I can't afford, or get to or even know how to go about geting, shit that actually DOES help.
