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.

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!

@Marcen: I'd tentatively say Telecaster rather than Stratocaster.

More like the offspring of Big Mac x fem!Anon.

Like most satyrs are in this context.

They do watch it, but they're mostly the normal fans.

Yeah, girls are weird. tongue

I can't say I am a fan of the idea of pony on human action, but the resulting offspring are pretty cute.

[up]Actually, this is different. Anthros are anthropomorphic ponies. The satyrs are more like half-breeds that are human on top, pony on the bottom.

I'm pretty sure anthros aren't literally half human/half animal like that. They're more of a in-between/fusion-type ordeal.

It's hard to describe, but there's a definitely difference in how they're drawn. Maybe somebody else can explain it better.

Just for reference pictures: Anthro vs. Satyr.

Anthros are what ponies would be if they were bipedal and had opposable thumbs. But their top half still has the surface of a pony's coat, not human skin.

Satyrs are literally half-human half-pony, in that they're ponies from the waist down (albeit also walking bipedally), but fully human from the waist up.

Put it another way, anthros are like when you mix blue and red paint to make a purple-colored block, whereas satyrs are when you just paint the top half blue and the bottom half red.

(Singing) Near a tree by a river there's a hole in the ground. Where an old man of Aran goes around and around. And his mind is a beacon in the veil of the night. For a strange kind of fashion there's a wrong and a right. But they'll never, never fight over you.

I just finished playing a game of Twilight Stuggle. It's a pretty neat board game about the Cold War for two players. Unfortunately, we didn't getfar because my brother won a victory by technicality in Turn 4 (around 1960 or so) as the US. Shame, I was looking forward to playing to the 80s. sad

As a long-time scholar of such things, anthros mostly have human-shaped bodies (Some of them have hooves for feet though), but they usually retain their pony colouring and facial features.

Plus, I imagine being a Disney Princess at the parks would be awesome

Did you read the Cracked article?

I've only been there once and it was back in 2011 that I went.

I haven't been there since I was a kid. Not that I see much point in going.
