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!

@Crow: Don't sweat it. You've got good company in Starscream and I. (Heck, I think Sunset Shimmer's having a ball with the fortress gift.)

Makes me think what three ponies you all would put to one of the tropers here with the mention of Twi having to deal with the changeling Queen, a fluffy pony, and Dan.

Oh yeah! I watched the first season of Dan Vs a little while ago. It was awesome. Why do my fingers keep trying to capitalize random letters?

Well. That's probably the most blatantly phallic monster they can get away with on this show.

Okay, that was fun. I'm a little disappointed that I couldn't come up with much worth saying even whilst talking out of my ass, but it was fun.

No wonder Cadence was so peppy after that. She was picturing all her Neighponese porn the whole time.

I liked that not only did the Tatzlwurm manage to get Discord sick for real, it also completely surprised and scared him. There's just something amusing and possibly also scary at the same time about a creature that catches Discord off-guard in that way, considering he didn't even know what it was and it was a random surprise of the sort that he would have pulled on the ponies in the days when his chaos reigned free. I mean in the days before he was turned to stone, I could see him sending out a random monster like that, letting the ponies think they've defeated it, and then have it pop back up on them when they least expect it. Seems like he only really likes random chaos if it benefits him, so in a sense he got a taste of his own medicine.

I know he's not omnipotent and that he can get overconfident and has been surprised before, like when the Elements of Harmony beat him both times or when he surprised himself by realizing that he actually did care about Fluttershy being his friend. What I meant was that I thought it was interesting to see him not only get taken out by another creature but that the Tatzlwurm completely surprised and scared him because it startled him in a way that was more random and chaotic than something like being defeated by ponies who he already knew were opposing him. Plus the sneeze attack thing was a completely different type of attack than the way it acted when it fought Cadance and Twilight, so even if Discord had been watching them fight it he still wouldn't have expected it to spit poisonous slime on him.

Ugh. My internet connection has turned to complete garbage this week (which is why I haven't been posting as often) so I won't be able to join the episode stream. Nor will I be able to watch the episode on youtube or download it, until the connection is fixed. That's how utterly terrible it is.

I was just browinsg through Fimfic and found a story description that just made me go WTF.

When Fluttershy fails to negotiate for better prices at the farmers' market, she inadvertently provides the impetus for a revolution to overthrow the government of Equestria and install a new head of state — her.

How do people come up with this stuff?

In this world, things are different. Saber Star and Fluttershy are still a couple, but death is almost everywhere. Unfortunately, Saber doesn't have his bladed robotic wings.

The hell did I just read? Is this an AU of an AU or what? Pretty sure Fluttershy isn't with anyone in canon.

Twilight Sparkle Bit a Peach

Uh... points for Exactly What It Says on the Tin I guess? How is this a story?

I apologise in advance, as it will be exceedingly painful to read. I will not blame you if you hate it

Honesty is the best policy. To be fair, being badly written is the part of the premise of this one.

@story: A month or so ago Fimfic put up a blog post explaining some aspect of their policies, and used as an example the non-existent fic "Twilight Sparkle Eats Peaches." Naturally, there were hoards of Twilight eating peaches fics up within the day.
