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: Screw arbitrary. My head cannon will have Rainbowdash be at least 42 years old.

@NES: To show if it is me or Orion. I recall you guys calling me a changeling simply because I had a changeling avatar on my old account.tongue

I figure Pinkie went overboard with the candles and Twi ended up OCDing and adding more candles to make it symmetrical.

What's with the pelican?? :D It's in a ton of shots near the end! I suppose they wanted to include a goat for the party but this show already has goats as characters.

I wonder why neither Pinkie or Cheese thought of inviting representatives of the Wonderbolts to Dash's party. It IS her party!

...they used.... Pinkie's crude Dash drawing on the banner for a trampoline and then hung it over Cheese's banner on the stage!!! .... ; v ;

I assume we'll be getting a midlife crisis episode with Rainbow Dash, then.

So have we come up with a ship name for Pinkie/Cheese yet? Cheesie? Piewich?

Fun fact: Shannon Chan-Kent, the VA who does the singing for Pinkie Pie, is a trained opera singer.

20something sounds about right.

I have a message from another time...

There's no way these ponies are in their 40s. For starters, most athletes aren't just beginning their careers that late.

Although I suppose it's possible that ponies are just very long lived. That could explain how its been two or three years since the start and the Crusaders still look the same age.

Doesn't surprise me, her high notes are quite high and all her singing parts are flawless. Also, I vote for cheese pie, or Pinkie sandwich

The idea that the ponies have long lifespans would make sense if Granny Smith really was around for the founding of Ponyville.

Ooo, Cheese Pie's a good one.

Pinkie and Cheese did so much reality warping in this episode. Discord would be proud.

My headcanon is that Dashie is 20, at the oldest.

And we can now celebrate her birthday on February 1st. Or January 31st.

Also, random BG pony cameo... Thor Pony was in Cheese's flashback! I don't think we've seen her in a while.

It's official; Rainbowdash is 42 and has her birthday on February 1st.

...Ok, I'll stop.

Come to think of it, Luna would love Cheese Sandwich.tongue

Did the first song have a strong Beauty and the Beast vibe to anyone else?

[up][up]Yeah. The first song was based on "Belle," and the second one, apparently, AKR had "Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious" in mind.

Holy fuck spellcheck recognizes that.

Also, I like the little touch that the giant pizzas have tomato slices instead of pepperoni.

BTW, I was just talking to Apple on DA about the new episode. He loved it. It's his new favorite Pinkie episode, despite the absence of fattening up. [lol]

Random sidenote, its a shame we don't have more winter based episodes. Is Friendship Not Magic when there's snow?

Maybe winter in Equestria only lasts for a week or something.

Lyrics in Winter Wrap-Up indicate that it's three months.

Huh. You'd think a society that can control the weather would shorten winter a bit.

They can't show us the winter months, since that's when all the mares are in heat.

So I'm thinking that that gleam they get in their eyes when they realize something is important. For Rarity it was when she saw that her friends didn't see her show, and Pinkie Pie when she saw that her goofing off wasn't making Rainbow Dash happy.

That lockbox has just been hidden away lately and they still haven't found any keys. wild mass guessI'm pretending that every time they get that gleam, one of those keys appears somewhere.

You gotta believe me when I scare you away, all that I wish for is that you would stay

@Syd: Not unless they wrap up winter really early in Ponyville...

Not sure what Dashie's birthday has to do with them wrapping up winter.

Because the 1st of February is in the winter and we didn't see any snow in the episode.
