Stories set in the Oversaturated World, some silly, some less so.
“Alright, you two.” Rainbow Dash tried to march along the line like a drill instructor, but that didn’t work too well when the line consisted of two people. She kept up the glare, though. Those were clearly the properly cowed expressions, not the faces of two people struggling not to laugh at her. “I know everyone else couldn’t make it, but I have been looking forward to this movie for months, almost as much as Daring Do and the Artifacts of Altoriosa, and I don’t want you two ruining it. I’m going to be sitting next to you, so try not to spend the whole time sucking face.”
Sunset rolled her eyes. Respectfully. “We’ll try to contain ourselves.”
Twilight flushed. “We’re not that bad, are we?”
“I don’t think we are.”
Dash gave Sunset a flat look and pointed at the back of her own neck. “I can feel the air currents when you open up your little makeout time bubbles, you know.”
That broke Sunset’s smug demeanor nicely. “Who told—“ She cut herself off with a grimace. “Well, I did now.”
“And Scootaloo can feel it when you dilute time.”
“Dilate,” Twilight said automatically.
“Whatever,” said Dash. “All I ask is that you two keep it in your pants while we’re in the theater.”
Twilight frowned. “No offense, Rainbow, but we’re going to see Alien Angels vs. Space Pirates 3, not Citizen Cane.”
“Yeah, and this is the one where we changed the world midway through filming. They didn’t reshoot anything. I wanna see how they pulled it off, and I don’t want to have to tune out you two while I do it.”
“Fine,” huffed Sunset, hands on her hips. “You want to sit between us like a proper chaperone?”
Dash nodded. “That’s actually a good idea.”
“I was kidding.”
“Too bad.” Dash turned towards the theater. “Come on, let’s go get some decent seats.”
Pinkie bobbed from side to side to a tune only she could hear, still in her waitress uniform. Dash actually wasn’t sure if she was still on shift or not, and couldn’t bring herself to care. After a sip on her milkshake, Pinkie said, “So, how was the movie?”
Dash sighed. “Sunset and Twilight wouldn’t stop laughing the whole time.”
“Ooh, sounds like my kind of movie,” Pinkie said with a slightly wider grin.
“It’s not a comedy. It’s supposed to be this epic action blockbuster, but those two kept poking fun at everything it was getting wrong about science and magic and…” Dash groaned and brought her face against the table. “They got egghead all over the movie. And they just kept building off of each other.”
After a few moments—an eerie amount of silence from Pinkie Pie—she said, “So they egged each other on?”
“Not helping, Pinkie.”

Come on, Dash, just roll with it. You can be the Mike to their Crow and Tom.
Oh man. I wish I'd thought of that pun.

The comments really spared no eggspense when it comes to these puns!

So, should we lay off the puns? They only get worse, in my eggsperience. Something to keep in mind for nest time...
These puns are cracking me up.

We can just keep shelling them out.
Okay, I'd now like for someone to give me some idea of the girls MST3K of this movie!
The Bearer of the Element of Laughter, everyone.

Would you all believe that the pun was an afterthought and the primary idea was just "Nerd girlfriends ruin the action movie for Dash by laughing at all the factual errors"?
8745309
Yes, I would! The best puns are unintended.
8745309
Yeah, I'd believe it. Unfortunately there aren't many/any snappy quips you can belt out about that though
8745309
That makes it better, but not much
That one was a bit rotten.

Maybe find some way to help her cross-dimensional twin find a life that isn't dominated by Princess Sunset's massive public profile. That may involve a makeover and a suitable nickname.
You know, due to my love of world building, I'm actually most disappointed that we never did learn how they handled "the universe changed, no reshoots" thing and want the answers to that question more than any of the various other questions and plotlines this series has produced. And I love this series.

I'm curious myself, if only because I can see this leading to a new "accepted convention" in modern film, like the one in some forms of theatre where as long as the stagehands are dressed appropriately they can wander around onstage and everybody understands they aren't there in-universe. In fact, I can imagine some producers or directors wanting to use CGI specifically to make the cast look pre-Saturation normal, after the initial wave of imagination-fulfillment is over and both mild nostalgia and a renewed desire to do "period pieces" or stories resurges.
