It’s not your lucky day

When you lose your book of riddles

eat a snickers

In the past.  
Somnambula: “I’ve cleaned your pool of all that green goo and filled it with fresh water.”  
Sphinx: “Water? WATER?! NUUUUUUUUUUU!”
 
Present time:  
Somnambula: “I’m sorry, but it looks like your catnip stash is well past its expiry date.”  
Sphinx: “NUUUUUUUUUUU!”
 
Thursday, a few months ago, in Vancouver.  
Jayson: “We’ll have to reshoot that scene. You had a wingboner.”  
Sphinx: “NUUUUUUUUUUU!”

I’m surprised Pudge hasn’t drawn Sphinxy already. Unless they did and haven’t posted it on DeviantART?

“Did someone say catpone?” -Capt. Pudgemuffin

Well, since there do exist ponies with wings in Equestria, this sphinx could very well simply be a cat-pegasus hybrid. In which case, she’d be a catpone.

“They’re all out of Fancy Feeeeeeeeeeeast!”

I just realized her wings are like,midnight sparkles

What you do internally when people start ranting about politics

Yeah, but according to classical mythology, the Sphinx of Thebes (the one responsible for the classic “four legs morning, two legs midday, three legs evening” riddle) supposedly either ate itself or flung itself off a nearby cliff onto some jagged rocks after Oedipus became the first person to actually answer her riddle correctly, and I didn’t see a pit of spikes anywhere nearby in that scene.
 
Furthermore, said Greek Sphinx was in fact part serpent (usually represented by its tail being a snake) as it was the offspring of the great monsters Typhon and Echidna (much like its siblings Cerberus, the Lernean Hydra, Orthrus, the Chimaera, the Nemean Lion, and Ladon).

@Dirty Bit  
It has, twice, in 1957 and 1967, and that’s only the direct adaptations.
 
But really…come on.

@neo4812
 
I don’t know if a movie adaptation of an old story has been made XD

@Dirty Bit  
never saw it, sounds familiar though.

@neo4812
 
It’s a slight reference to Oedipus Rex

CONFOUND THOSE PONES!

@Wyvrex21
