Lol, thanks, you ruined it, I can’t un-notice now.
 
And Scoots has no wings.

@Background Pony #C329  
Well if nothing bad happened then sorta a success?

@Background Pony #D3A5  
Well they’re not really “accidents” if she’s not trying to not use her diapers yet.

Reminds me - a few days ago I saw pigeon feeders that gave pigeons food that made them - either sterile or lose their desire to reproduce or something, so it kept pigeon population down without killing them. Interesting.

@Detsella Morningdew  
You’re welcome! Nice to see something good come of my physics-posting, heh.
 
I want to addendum that two big reasons relativistic mass has fallen out of favor are:  

@Earthquake!  
What’s funny is this is actually a puzzle that, if you lack necessary contextual information (aside from English, the names of the relevant characters) would be impossible to solve with any solution verifiable above another. “Spoke” and “Choke” are both consistent with English sounds and words (being mashed together into names like “Applejack” and “Fluttershy” are mashups of words, or at least being English-like), and there’s probably a few other possibilities I’m not seeing, if not many.
 
So, as stupidly easy as it is to us, to someone without any context, like some alien or remnant post-apocalyptic civilization trying to decode scraps left in the ruins of humanity, it’s kind of an unsolvable puzzle until you find other bits of media that explain the context of the show.

@dsagent  
Yeah.
 
Makes me a little sad that people get creeped out by awkward kids.
 
Just awkward. Not creepy. Big difference, but so easily conflated.

@Cryosite  
Makes me think of Granny Smith doing quality control at the Super Cider Squeezy competition.
 
“Good’un, bad’un, good’un, bad’un…”

@Prometheus labs CEO  
Lol, thanks.
 
I can talk to the plants and they say they don’t want it.

@IoM citizen #42  
Commit to it. It’ll be worth it, not just for accomplishing the goal but also for building personal skills and experience in organizing things like that, and that’s worth a whole lot.

@redweasel  
Hah, that’s how I feel except with years of passion for a fic…

@Background Pony #671F  
Lol, so in this ball and chain version she’s just screwed.

@Brothakyo  
Lol, finally got to watching it, and I’m almost a bit disappointed it didn’t end with Pinkie Pie hit with a snowball, giving Rarity the souffle, and saying dramatically, “earn this”.

@deathsia  
Well they got like a 90% chance of being right with that assumption, given it’s the brony fandom, lol.

@Background Pony #D739  
No. But sure makes me think twice before continuing to use Deviantart, lol.

@Cyborg_pony  
It most definitely is.
 
Then I checked the source and the artist even said so (after running through Google translate)  

@Background Pony #D739  
Is it this design or is it the Haunted Mansion design? They’re rather similar, but this one is MLP Villains. You have to look closely to tell.

@TheMagpulPone  
Yeah. It takes a very precise detonation to set one off. The entire Manhatten Project was half about figuring out how to detonate them to set them off. If it was as easy as hitting it hard or blowing it up normally, then it’d probably have taken them half as long to get nukes working.
 
But making a nuke go boom is a lot harder than hitting it really hard. There’s an entire science to it.  
_{more precisely an area of engineering, but you get the idea.}

@Brothakyo  
Wait, that’s actually what happened? Dang, I really need to see this, now.

She looks like she’s been shot…

Where can you find/get the EQG series?

It’s… interesting to see a conversation about this, and to be able to say that I was with the show for the whole of it.
 
Eeeeh, since Baby Cakes, at least. That’s the episode where I got caught up.
 
Faust was far from infallible. Some of her ideas were bad, but the vast majority were very good and what made the show so great.
 
Some later writers didn’t really understand the show or what made it great, I feel like.
 
The animation quality went way up, but the writing quality became more hit and miss, though a number of cartoony tropes I very much dislike faded out, later, so did a lot of the charm - in a lot of episodes.
 
By about season 9 - what I’ve seen of it is about 70% good, with a few being very good. But the flops did seem to be getting more common.
 
…and I really, really miss Golden Oaks, still…

@Background Pony #A548  
I believe that is possible.

@Prometheus labs CEO  
Which sounds great, until you realize that the people who control it will start calling people “dictators” and “terrorists” who really aren’t, before long.

@The new troll on an old account  
There were still quality episodes, but too many flops, too, yeah.
 
Mostly I’m frustrated by all the unfulfilled potential. But alas.
