I’m actually curious about the mind set of people who choose to identify themselves as Pegasi ponies, Unicorn ponies, Alicorn ponies, or Earth ponies.

My impression of pegasi bronies: feeling trapped, feeling bossed around, wanting to run more than confront.

I consider myself an Earth pony, so what does that say about me?

Those of you who are unicorns, why do you want to be a unicorn? Gaining a sense of significance?

You are a pony. You want to give a small, reasonably priced gift basket to a spaceship crewed by about 12 or so extraterrestrials (humans). These aliens have had no other contact with Equestrian civilization.

What do you give them?

I'm giving a gift basket with these items:
---A bottle of wine (a small luxury item to drink.)
---A scroll with a short, friendly sentence in clean writing (the humans might copy it and show it to other ponies.)

Screw being creative. I'm just post one of my previously popular forum threads.

They could have saved Flash Sentry's character if they made him a UFO nerd or something.

Act 1: He suspects that Twilight was not actually a human. He spends a good deal of time stalking her with a note pad and pencil, documenting conversations with her unearthly talking dog, and hypothesizing about what her goals on Earth might be. Narratively, it shows he's doubtful (character flaw,) smart (attractive,) and might be a potential villain if Twi and Spike don't play their cards right.

My thoughts on the MLP universe being real: A resounding 'maybe' in parallel universes

If you can take a piece of paper and explain how the physics work, I don't see why there can't be a universe that works like the MLP universe.

Can you think of anyway that their culture might try to express harmony? I mean, how the concept of harmony might show up in their language or customs?

One way I thought they'd express just how constantly-on-their-minds the idea of harmony is, is by having 2 forms of the word "and."

I've got a small idea about how adult ponies' thought process is shaped by their language.

Anyone notice how most ponies don't seem to take their safety into their own hooves? I got a theory on that.

You know how in English, a grammatically correct sentence is "It is raining." ? Well, I was thinking that in Equish, that same sentiment is expressed by just saying "Raining."
