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.

Apparently today's edition of IPT has memetic potential? I dunno why, but someone used the "exploitable meme" tag on it.
It makes no sense to me, either. Some other tag I used must have added that tag automatically.
I put my friend in a coconut! He lives in my hat! Hey, come hang out!@Seraphem: Point. Still, I think confiscating the headphones is a perfectly valid action in that case, given that they can apparently play loud enough that everyone around her starts dancing along. I can safely say that a lot of teachers will let you get away with a lot as long as you aren't distracting anyone else.
Also, when someone finds non-tangling earbuds, they will be rich.

Reaction Image RepositoryExcept that at that point, they WEREN'T loud. I doubt it was able to make cars bob in time with it, o shake the ground. Let alone the walk sign. It was the whole musical number not really being what's happening thing. When we shift back to 'real' just before she bumps into not!Celestia, you can barely hear the music.
Yes, we are.
I'm just saying taking the headphones, and not the player itself, makes no damn sense.
But also like I said, school administrator.. so par for the course.
Yeah I'm not arguing with her taking them, that's just the normal shit you deal with in school. I'm talking about how stupid taking the headphones, but not the player itself was.

I'm just going to go with what Kyler said. It's basically a step above telling her not to wear them, but a step below confiscating the ipod, which is very expensive. As somebody who actually works in a school, it's basically a case of "No headphones, and if I catch you again, I'll take the ipod too." It's how (good) discipline works; you don't jump to the most extreme punishment unless the rules are being broken in an exceptionally flagrant manner.
But yeah, it's dumb to keep arguing something so minor.

Reaction Image RepositoryPunishment in school is arbitrary. The main purpose is to make you rethink your actions and behave better In the future.
http://h0useb0und.tumblr.com/Headphones aren't either. Though headphones are more visible than earbuds and hence more distracting.
Anyway, I think it's pretty clear that the other stuff wasn't literally happening.
Blind Final Fantasy 6 Let's PlayShhh it's funnier to imagine that Vinyl is literally a walking rave party.

Yeah Vinyl would be screwed out of her music for the day if she didn't have a spare.
