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.

Maybe Gaynon had a weird butt baby?
Birthright: an original web novel about Dragons, the Burdens of Leadership, and Mangoes.Do those even exist? Pfft... who said women watch this? That's crazy!
They're called.. say it with me now: "anthros". Yea, i've studied that field a long time ago.

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

"Transform and Roll out!" Optimus PrimeI 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.

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.

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