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!

Fucking hell, don't bring up that storm. Snow's gotten so bad in Michigan that damn near everything is shutting down. I'm honestly fearing getting called into work.

Moving! Starting a new job tomorrow. Gonna be in Texas for two years at the least.

Caught up on the new episode tonight. Thoughts follow:


Alright, time for “Rarity vs. The City of Manehattan”.

Rarity uses Spike as unpaid labor. I can’t help but notice that Twilight glared at it, but still didn’t say anything.

Rainbow Dash: surprisingly excited about a musical.

Establishing shot of Manehattan. It’s kinda weird how the Friendship Express is so much more detailed than the bridge it’s driving over.

Are those the eyes of T.J. Eckleburg on the poster across from the theatre?

Haha, nice lampshade hanging.

Wow, I was joking about Spike’s unpaid labor. Wasn’t expecting the episode to actually highlight that she’s being a dick.

Heh, checkerboard cutie marks on the taxi ponies. Reminds me of a fanfic I read where the taxi pony had a black-and-white striped mane.

Ten minutes till the show starts. They shouldn’t have sang for so long.

Wait, the dresses? I just assumed they got delivered, off-screen.

Hey, one of those fashion ponies stole her hair from an Egyptian princess.

“Eeaaaooooough.” Best answer, right there.

Rarity’s new fabric has shape-shifting properties. Or mind-control. Or it’s a portal to the Purple Dimension. It’s what a gay Rorschach would wear on his face.

I can’t tell if this Polomare is completely honest and kind of dim, or a conniving backstabber just pretending to be friendly.

Rarity! Don’t share your proprietary uber-fabric until AFTER you have an iron-clad case that it is, indeed, yours. You’re making it too easy for your competitor to steal it.

Secretary sounds a bit like a grown-up Twist.

Welp. Fabric done got stoled. Polomare confirmed backstabber.

Rarity has an idea! She’s going to steal from the hotel!

What the heck kind of timescale is this? Has Rarity already presented her fashion line? Is Prim Hemline just going to be okay with Rarity completely changing her line in between the practice run and the real deal?

And now we know why the entire Mane Six are in this episode: not just to fill a quota, but to help Rarity get a lot of work done in a short time.

“I go out of my way to get you tickets to a show, and this is how you repay me? By watching the show?!”

Pony high fashion is weird.

Oh man, an entire song with wet mane Rarity? BEST EPISODE EVER

All those actors looked like earth ponies. More evidence for the theory that EPs dominate the entertainment industry.

Hey, we never got any closure on the “Rarity being a dick to Spike” subplot.

It's now a "*bleep* you, snow" 47 F. Thank you, weather ponies

It's snowing while it's 47 out? At least it won't stick then.

Snow's gotten so bad in Michigan that damn near everything is shutting down

We were just in Michigan a week ago. Sounds like we got out just in time.

Nope. That's why I said "*bleep* you, snow."

Let it rain all it wants here, and leave the snow for the skiers.

The worst sunburn I ever got was in Orlando. Second-degree sunburn on my back. In April. On a day that started out dismal and rainy as could be.

Well they say that the bad UV can pierce clouds, so you can still get sunburned when it's not sunny out. So annoying.

Yes, good luck with that new job!

Me, I'm a bit anxious. The essay I submitted is a bit pants. I don't think it'll get a passing score.

And I got the results back from the other one for a different module. It was only 52%. And 52% out of the 30% the essay is worth to your overall grade is only about 15%. It's too low. Now everything hinges on the test for the both of them. Gulp. tongue

I've given up trying to get 'good grades' and I'm just trying now to get passing grades.

Well, good luck with the essay anyway, Dan. At least you tried your best. I'm sure you did.

I need to change the batteries in my thermometer. I sincerely doubt it's 71 degrees Fahrenheit at three in the morning on January 6th in Massachusetts. My Comcast homepage says 45. That's more realistic.

If it's a pass...it'll be just barely. Not for the first time have I sat down to do the work only to realize how little I actually know. tongue

I think that third Glanco pic has been around for a while? Unless I'm confusing it with something else.

I like that he gave Fluttershy sensible work boots. Someone who spends that much time working with sick animals isn't gonna be wearing expensive heels, after all.

Yeah, she probably only even has one pair of fancy shoes with heels (maybe more) because Rarity takes her shopping for them.
