October 20
I woke up kinda early and I had a bit of hay for a snack, then I went to the bathroom and filled my camelback, then got in my flight gear. I thought about putting my saddlebags on, but anchovy cans were pretty small, and I could fit a bunch of them in my vest pockets and camelback pouches.
I went down to the boardwalk and turned on my blinking light, then called the airplane directors. I said that I was going to go west over the 43 road, and Dori told me that I could and reminded me of the little grass airport that was west of town.
So I took off and climbed over the trees at the end of the parking lot, and I would have liked to visit with Caleb and Lindy and Trinity but it was too early, and I didn't want to wait, 'cause I wanted to get a good long flight in before lunch.
I think I was in the air before the sun came over the horizon, but it was completely overcast, so I couldn't be sure.
I flew west over Main Street, and I didn't start climbing when I crossed the 131 Highway because I thought they'd be happier if I went to Meijer before I flew and not after when I was all lathered. And the anchovies didn't weigh that much anyway.
I got a basket and carried it back to the canned fish and I had to fly up and get the anchovies because they kept them on the very top shelf. I got a dozen tins and took them up front and I tried to used the computer cashier. I wasn't very good at it, and it kept telling me to put my anchovies on the belt and to get my hooves off the scale and I had to keep apologizing to it when I did something wrong.
The screen was really annoying to use too, because I had to push the buttons with my muzzle and I kept pushing the wrong thing and finally a man came over and helped me out but I decided that I wasn't going to try using it again. It was so much easier and faster to have a cashier do it for me.
I tucked all the cans away and then went out and sat down on the front porch and ate one of my cans of anchovies for energy, then I put the empty can in the wastebasket and flew off, curving over the parking lot once I'd gotten higher than the lampposts.
As I went west, I climbed until I was right at the base of the clouds, close enough that sometimes I broke off the little misty bits hanging down from the bottoms of the cloud. And that gave me a really good feel for the cloud, and there wasn't really enough moisture in it to rain out, and I thought that maybe they'd break up in the afternoon, if they were the tail end of a storm. I'd smelled just a little bit of rain, so probably it had rained last night and these were all that was left.
Or they could have been the leading edge of a slow front that was pushing its way through.
As I got close to the grass airport, I called out on my radio to small airplanes, but there weren't any of them near me, and when I flew by, I saw that the one airplane that was sitting outside still had covers over its windows.
A little bit past that I went by Gene the Pumpkin Man's pumpkin patch, and his fields were full of big, ripe pumpkins that looked pretty tasty. The seeds were really good, too, if you roasted them. Zucche did that every year, and it was a nice treat to celebrate the end of the season.
Sometimes she'd also make a nice vegetable stew and bring it out inside of a pumpkin.
When I got all the way out to the 40 road, I decided I'd got a little bit north, so I told Dori and then followed the road all the way to Gobles. And when I got over town I circled around and checked my watch, and I had plenty of time to get back, so instead of taking the roads or using my watch to give me an almost direct bearing, I decided to follow above the Kal-Haven trail instead.
I was a little bit north of the trail, and from my altitude I could easily see how it bent south and then back north, so I didn't follow it at first, but flew above the road out of town, and when I was to the next little town which was Kendall, the trail was almost right next to the road, and so then when it bent away I stayed over it.
Past a rectangular forest, it crossed over an electric wire path, and then curved a little bit north, and I stayed over it until it made its final turn south to get to the trailhead, and by then I could easily see the 131 Bus highway so I started descending and aimed for that, and flew along it until I got to the dirt mines, and then I turned south to get back to campus.
I landed on the boardwalk and went inside and put away my flight gear and anchovies and then I ate some more hay before getting into the shower.
I sat on my bed and groomed myself and got some more loose feathers off, then I took my book of poetry back to the library, because I thought I should exchange it for a different book. And I looked around until I found one by Alice Walker that looked good, and the librarian asked if I was going to return my World War One book or if I wanted to renew it which meant I could keep it longer and I thought that was a good idea, so I did.
If I had been smarter I would have had my saddlebags with my astronomy things but I wasn't, and I didn't. So I had to go back to my room with my new poetry book in my mouth, and then I packed everything for my class and went to lunch.
I wasn't too upset that they didn't have any good fish again, since I had all my anchovies, and so I just got a salad and also a piece of pumpkin pie, and I went and sat down with Leon and Cedric and Trevor.
They were really happy to see me, and both Leon and Cedric bumped my hoof with their fists, and they mostly talked about football and I said that I thought it would be fun to be a cheerleader at one of their games, and they both said that I should try. So I was going to have to ask Jessica about it, and soon, too, because we were getting close to the end of the quarter.
I didn't like the whipped cream that was on top of my pie; it didn't taste very good at all, and after one bite I scraped it off even though I hated wasting food. And then I got out my poetry book and Leon laughed when he saw the title, but Cedric said that it was true; and not only did horses make a landscape look more beautiful, but ponies also make life more beautiful.
I gave the book to Trevor so he could pick a poem, and he chose one about the fall called These Mornings of Rain, and I read it and I really liked it. I'd never really thought about how rain might feel and sound in the city, but Cedric said it was just like the poem.
After lunch, I went to astronomy, and Professor Miller thanked me in front of class for helping to push clouds out of the way, and she said that everyone else in the class had missed it. And then she told us a little bit about Einstein and how he had come up with his theories and how they had been all published in the same year and they were all very important, and she explained how experiments had proved that light couldn't move any faster than its top speed even if it got a running start.
Then she told us about general relativity and how it included gravity. And she said it was weird because all things responded the same way to gravity, and Newton didn't know why, so Einstein figured it out and said that gravity wasn't a force, but it was a curve in space-time instead and that was kind of strange to think about. And that added a fourth dimension which was time, and she said that the Earth moved ten thousand times further in space-time as it did in just plain distance, which was strange to think about. And there was an equation that used a distance called the Schwarzschild Radius, and when it was small the old physics worked but when it was big they didn't.
And she ended class by saying that how time appeared depended on who did the measuring and that we'd start talking more about black holes next.
I had a little bit of free time after astronomy class before I had to meet Meghan, so I turned on my computer and I studied the weather for a little bit, then I checked my computer mailbox and I'd gotten a computer letter from Miss Cherilyn saying that Gusty's next play was next weekend if I wanted to go, and so I wrote her a letter back saying that I did.
Meghan came over to my room while I was still telling my computer what to write, and I had to stop to let her in and then I told her that I needed to finish if I had time and she said that we did. So I finished it and sent it and then Meghan asked what it was about so I told her.
She called for an Uber-Car and while we were waiting for it she said that Maura had said that the farrier would be there, too.
So we went downstairs to wait for the Uber-Car and it arrived a few minutes after we got there. It was sleek car called a Camry Hybrid, and it could run on a normal engine or electricity or both and so it wasn't broken when the engine turned off at traffic signals.
He dropped us off at the salon and we went inside and first me and Meghan sat in the chairs so that Meghan could get her hair trimmed and I could get my mane and tail trimmed, and we gossipped with the stylists. The one who was doing Meghan's hair had seen me on the television and said that it was kind of scary seeing all the footage from my camera, and I told her that it wasn't the worst storm I'd flown in, and Meghan told her how to find my movies on YouTube and she said that she would look for them.
Stefan came in while we were still getting trimmed, and so he waited around until we were finished and then we went into the little side room. He noticed right away that I was moulting, because he had chickens and they did that too, and he ran his fingers over my pinfeathers and said that was something he'd never expected to see on an equine.
Maura asked Meghan if she wanted to go into the other room right now or if she wanted to stay with me, and she said that she'd rather that we stay together.
Even though she'd seen it before, Meghan looked a little bit uncomfortable when he was trimming my hooves, although he didn't have to do very much since I went shoeless. And he said that my hooves looked a little bit better than last time and I told him I'd been doing more flying and less walking and that had probably helped, and I was trotting mostly on dirt now, which didn't wear them down the same as concrete did.
He said that he was going to file them the same as last time if I didn't mind, and I said that that had worked well, so I gave him one hoof at a time to work on. It always feels a little bit strange after having my hooves filed to stand on them again, and it would probably take a couple of days before they started to feel normal again.
When he'd finished, he reached into his pocket and got me a carrot which I'd been smelling the whole time he'd been working, and he started to offer it to me and then he kind of pulled it back and said that he was sorry, he'd forgotten I wasn't a horse, and I said that I'd still eat the carrot, so he gave it back, and Maura laughed and said that he had quite the way with the ladies.
I hugged him and thanked him, and then we all went to a different room and it smelled kind of waxy in the room, and Meghan asked me if I wanted to see how a Brazilian wax was done, or if I'd rather not watch. I was curious, so I said that I'd stay and Maura offered to bring me a chair because there weren't any extras but I didn't mind standing on my hooves and getting used to how they felt now. And so Maura put on a pair of gloves and Meghan took off her pants and panties and it looked like it was really painful and I don't know why anybody would want to do that.
And so I moved right next to Meghan and she put her hand on my back and squeezed every time Maura pulled another strip of wax off, and we were both really glad when it was over.
After Meghan had gotten dressed again we both thanked Maura, and Meghan ordered another Uber-Car to come and get us. And it took about a half hour, so we sat in the front and chatted and made plans for the weekend. The weather was supposed to be really nice and so we thought it would be fun to go to the beach tomorrow if Aric wanted to.
The car we got to go back to campus in was called a Sonic, and it wasn't as nice as the Camry had been.
We had enough time for dinner together, and everyone was kind of surprised to see me, so I explained how Pastor Liz had had to cancel our meeting because she was going to a protest.
I'd gotten a kind of light dinner, because afterwards I'd be fighting, and I hated doing a lot of exercise on a full belly.
Me and Peggy and Meghan walked back to our dorm together, and Meghan asked if Aric would pick her up after bell choir, and I said that I'd tell him to, and then she crouched down and nuzzled me, which Peggy thought was really funny. And she said that maybe Meghan was turning into a pony, and Meghan said back in Equestrian that Peggy was just jealous.
So I got my glaive and then I walked down to the park so that I could get more used to the new feel of my hooves. And we all stretched out and went through the warmups, and then we got to do one-on-one fighting and I got to practice with Stellan and Seth and Karla and Aric, and when we took a break before she set up a little challenge, I told them about the little fight that me and Aquamarine had gotten into last weekend (it was mostly Aquamarine). So then I had to explain how obvious it was that she was trying to make him back down but he hadn't figured it out and nobody else really knew either, so Stellan got his boxing gloves and we put them on my hind hooves and so I demonstrated. He knew what was coming, since we'd done it together before.
But he let me hit him anyway, since it was a learning opportunity for everyone else. And I didn't put as much force into it as I could have, and only used one hind leg, and aimed for the thick muscle in his thigh which also had armor over it. Even if I had gone for a full kick, I couldn't hit as hard as an earth pony.
So then everyone else wanted to try, even Aric, and Karla had to remind everyone to move slow the first time, and I said that if they were trying to dodge I couldn't be sure I'd hit where I meant to, but we did it anyway.
The boxing shoes made it really weird, because my nose was down a bit and my hind hooves didn't move like they usually did, but I did pretty well, so everyone got the opportunity to feel what it was like. And then they were curious just how hard I could kick if I really wanted to, so we found a board in the back of Stellan's car, and he fastened it to the side of a tree so it stuck out and was a decent target for me, and Aric helped me get the boxing gloves off, and then I tried a practice kick at it to make sure that it was at a good height, and then I got it a second time and I didn't break it all the way off but I cracked the wood, and I said that Aquamarine probably would have broken it off if she'd kicked it, 'cause she was a lot stronger than I was.
That had taken up most of the time that Karla had planned for a battle, and I told her I was sorry, but she said that it was okay, because it had been very educational, and everyone now knew how to tell if a pony was about to kick them. And Aric said that the best thing to do was get out of the way, which I agreed with.
Aric and I got in Winston and I told him that we needed to pick up Meghan, so he drove up to Trowbridge and since we weren't going to be inside for very long, and there weren't any spaces to park in anyway, he stopped right by the door and turned on the flashing lights, and we went inside to her room.
This time, she'd packed a duffel bag, and so the three of us went down and got in Winston and I told Aric about our plan to go to the beach and he liked that plan. And just as soon as we'd said that it started raining, and he said that was a good omen.
When he got to Dartmouth Street, he stopped Winston and asked me if I wanted to drive the rest of the way, and Meghan said that that was a dumb idea, and I told her that we'd done it a bunch of times and I could even pick gears, and she shook her head and asked him if her seat belt worked right. He said that there was no way to know for sure unless we tried it, and he'd rather not find out, and he explained that he was working the pedals, so if I messed up, he could stop Winston, and I don't think that reassured her too much but I got all the way to his driveway without crashing again.
I asked if the movie of me that Cyndi had made was on the internet and Aric said that we could find it, so we went up to his room and I sat on his lap and Meghan stood behind him and he found the movie and played it a couple of times.
It was kind of embarrassing how many nice things Cyndi said about me, and they weren't all quite true, either, but I guess they were close enough for most people who would watch the movie. And it was really neat how cleverly she'd mixed everything together, from her talking to me and the view from the ground and the view from the GoPro. And Mel looked like he was a little uncomfortable being interviewed but also enthusiastic, and he also had a lot of nice things to say about me.
Then Aric said that we should get some beer, and we didn't feel like taking Winston, so we walked to Tiffany's and picked some out, and when we got back home he looked through all the movie-records that were by the television, and he asked Meghan how she felt about watching Labyrinth. And she said that she liked that movie, and I'd wanted to watch it, too, so he put that in and we all sat on the couch with me in the middle.
I thought that the goblin king was kind of mean, but I don't think he could help himself, and that Sarah kind of deserved it for being bad and not taking care of her little brother like she should have. Sometimes younger siblings are annoying but you need to watch out for them and take care of them and keep them safe.
It was really neat how he moved the glass balls in his hand, and Meghan said that she'd forgotten just how much of David Bowie you could see in the movie and how had they gotten away with letting him wear pants like that, and Aric said it made him a little uncomfortable, and Meghan asked if he was worried that he couldn't measure up. And Aric admitted that it was true, but he said that in his defense not many men could measure up to David Bowie.
We talked for a little bit about how in the human world almost everything in the movie was make-believe, and that was kind of strange to me because there wasn't a lot in the movie that I thought was made-up. I guess I hadn't been thinking of it from the human perspective, and I could imagine Discord being a goblin king and I think he would do almost the same things if he were. I don't think he'd want a baby, though, but he might pretend he did just to annoy somepony else.
It was kinda late when we finally went upstairs but it didn't matter because we didn't have any classes tomorrow. And after Aric had peed, Meghan went to the bathroom to put on her sleeping clothes, and Aric put on the fuzzy pants she'd borrowed last weekend while she was in there. The button that held the front shut was unbuttoned and I was thinking about taking advantage of that but I knew that I probably shouldn't because when Meghan came back she wouldn't want to see that.
She got on the inside again, and I got up next to her and snuggled against her, and then Aric laid down on the outside of the bed and they banged their legs together and Aric apologized and she said it was okay, and it took a couple of minutes before we were all comfortable, and then when we were I kissed both of them and Meghan put her hand on the top of my head and scratched me behind the ears.
In my headcanon, the equivalent of the Christmas goose or ham is the Hearth's Warming stew served in a pumpkin.
I am trying to imagine how a pony would open an anchovies can and eat them without making a huge mess.
Down in the southern portion of the USA, you want to be careful with pumpkin pie because sometimes it is really sweet potato pie. It looks the same, but tastes different.
I remember my 1st time for it. It's OK, but I had my mouth set for pumpkin pie & it was a Hell of a shock.
The "whipped cream" was probably one of the synthetic substitutes. "If it's pretty near almost food but isn't quite.. " by the makers of Edible Synthetic Food Substances.
The picture of Silver fighting the automated checkout is hilariously adorable.
That boy is completely smitten with Aquamarine.
Meghan certainly wishes.
I noticed Silver is now saying "a Sonic" and "the Camry" instead of treating those words as the car's personal name.
Is she sure she's eating anchovies and not sardines? I would have thought that anchovies would be salty enough to get her tipsy.
7813458 Remember in the first episode of Futurama Bender puts on both of his arms after they come off. It's the same principle. Don't think about it.
Those snuggle threesomes.
for a snack
I love the idea of silver apologizing to the machine. That'd be so adorable to see.
I've done a triple board break before. Breaking boards is more for show than anything else. A lot of it is the wood selection, get the right wood and it's a lot easier. Get the wrong wood and it's a lot harder.
Why do it harder way first? Shouldnt it be easier first, then the history of harder? Sucessful kids are taught ABC, not Chaucer to start.
Silver aint got ttriiple intrgral in bed yet, but she working on it
Am at sisters, network and access times very dodgy.
Have a good time gyz
and I was trotting mostly on dirt now, which didn't wear the down the same as concrete did. I think you're missing a word in here somewhere.
Please move item to the bagging area.
I already did.
Please remove item from the bagging area.
But you just told me-
This is true:
If the temporal dimension would be spatial, 1 second would be 3*10^8 meters long. All motion is relative, but if we just look at the motion around Sol, Tellus movies 3*10^4 meters per second. That means that the Earth travels 10 thousand times further in time than it does in space in 1 second.
Here's a very interesting take on Labyrinth and whats going on: http://glamdamnit.tumblr.com/post/55713093884/my-sister-asked-if-the-events-of-the-labyrinth
Michael Moschen is the guy who did the crystal ball tricks in Labyrinth. An insanely talented juggler.

7813424
That actually sounds really good. I feel like that's the Earth Pony tradition, specifically, although probably other ponies have adopted that tradition.
7813458
Most of the ones I've seen have a pull-tab on the top, so just hold the opposite end of the can with a hoof, hook a tooth under the pull tab to get it loose from the can then bite it and yank it off that way. Probably with practice, she could also hold it between her forehooves and do that to open it. Then set the can on the ground and carefully use her tongue to get the anchovies out of the can.

Sweet potato pie is a little bit oranger, usually. And it's really good, too.
Oh yeah, synthetic spray-on whipped cream.

Automated checkouts would be a real problem for ponies. I have trouble with them.
Who wouldn't be? She's cute, and she's smart, and she's strong.
If she does, it will probably make getting into Equestria easier.
7814010
She's figured that out, although the cars that she's been calling 'by name' since the beginning, she still does (Cobalt and Sienna, for example).
7814025
Yeah, they are super-salty, aren't they? She doesn't get 'drunk' on salt, and she mostly sweats it right out on her flights.
7814095
Bah . . . that's one that I did think about (and if I'd been willing to risk breaking a tooth, I'd have tried opening a can by mouth myself).

I sometimes apologize to my GPS when I don't do what it told me to do, although I'm in no way as adorable as Silver Glow.
I'm imagining trolling a karate master with plywood. That would probably be much more of a challenge to break.
7815256
I'm assuming he did it that way because the harder method was something they already knew, and the easier was something that they might not have. Although not being a math person, I'm not certain of that.

Just a m, actually. (didn't wear them down)
Correction made; thank you!

Whenever possible, I have an actual human check me out. I hate the self-checkout machines. Gotta hunt for the bar code, and then no matter what you do, the machine says you did it wrong.

That is an interesting theory (and turns it into the Neverending Story).

And was done as they were in the process of landing the plane.
It's there as a visual gag for 'spoon bending' psychics.
Also she would not get the satisfaction of feasting on delicious flesh.
Okay, kindle 3.0 is here and back to adorable pony being adorable!
Gotta have the boob pillow. Though at this point, the question is who's enjoying having pony using the pillow more?
See, pony is learning that humans are just grumpy and say mean things without meaning it when waking up early.
"a cat in armor" sh's not wrong, and we so need a "Pokedex by Silver Glow."
Abra itself... yeah only worse pokemon in Gen 1 was Magikarp, but like him, get it to evolve and holy shit you have one of the most OP Gen 1 pokemon.
Meghan, waiting breathlessly by the door for the moment Mistress returns? Naaaaaaah.
Naughty human lying to mistress about homework being done just to spend more time snuggling with her.
But, good pony, wanting her pleasure slave to just, do whatever she wants and be comfortable.
Yeah, the feather pulling will feel worse if it's not you. Your body can better prepare and know the EXACT moment you do something to it, so can kind of dull or ignore the nerve reactions. It's why you can't tickle yourself.
See! See! BACON! She craves flesh!
Chewy oatmeal...... okay then.
HEY! Milk Duds aren't that bad! Now those strawberry things in the foil, strawberry print wrapper... fuck those things.
And a perfect example of Silver's entire.. Silverness, not liking to go outside the lines, even if it would make something easier to do and be utterly harmless.
Yup, all will submit to the will of the Pony! She wants to do homework with you outside, you will do it with her outside!
Good no procrastination pony!
Keep chuckling dude, see what happens when Silver shows off her awesomeness.
I'm just picturing the laser pointer thing to be like a cat chasing one, and she just barges through clouds in pursuit of it.
Also YAY! Helpful pony being all helpful and feeling so good about it!
Pony deserve feeling a bit smugabout that bit of thinking ahead.
If Silver doesn't use that bed more, Peggy might just claim it for extra storage space.
7889050
Nah, just sit down, grab the tin in both forehooves, tilt you head back, open your mouth, and dump them in.
She needs to be more airplane like sometimes. "Pegasus One is descending to take on emergency fuel!"
See, the anchovies are put at pegasus height, humans know what future overlords want what stuff already.
Silver fighting with the selfcheckout and apologizing to it... so cuuuuuuttteeeee... How do people have such issues with those things...
Touch screens. #ponyproblems.
Someone needs to tell Silver you can get roasted pumpkin seeds, and now is a great time to do that. Also yes they are good.
Mmmmm, soup in a pumpkin.
How many heart attacks and diabetic coma's did she cause walking back to her room with her book in her mouth?
Pony Cheerleader.... ALL THE YES! Best pep booster EVER!
I'm with her... skip the whipped cream.
Also very true, ponies DO make everything better and more beautiful
That's right teacher servant, praise the pony! Learn to accept them as your betters!
"Which was strange to think about" Welcome to relativity. Be glad you aren't dealing with QM, that would just make your head explode.
Of course pony wants to go see more pony friend be awesome pony actress
Just.. again.. her way of looking and phrasing things. "It wasn't broken when it turned off at a light."
Meghan: "Watch the Pony! Go to my channel! Like and sub! Give me ad monies for building my own portal to Equestria!"
Gota be so odd to have hooves reshaped.. like breaking in a new pair of shoes, bu worse.
Just.. the whole carrot scene.. so great, her smelling i the whole time, him forgetting she's not a regular horse, and her just "So? Iz noms, give pony noms please?" She doesn't care why, just that it's tasty treat.
I'm also with you on the waxing thing... it looks great, but doing it... OOOOWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Meghan wishes she was turning into a pony! At this point, she's moving to at least become one culturally.
Everyone wants to get kicked by the pony. Their Cuddlequest will be SO easy.
Yup, very educational, learn to accept that you will do anything ponies wishes and like it!
Yes Meghan, pony can drive.... if someone works the gas and break. No wrecks yet!
Silver, you deserve ALL the nice things said about you!
Who doesn't like Labyrinth?
Pony morality. You don't do what you're told, monsters can come and steal your brother away and make you go through a deadly maze of insanity to get him back and you will have deserved it. Or at least Silver Morality.
Everything revolves around Bowie's balls. "The Area" has replaced Azathoth as the enter of all creation.
Also, very true, everyone is inadequate compared to Bowie.
Silly pone... but true, not much in a 'fantasy' movie that ponies would't look at and go "Eh, seems possible."
So, how well do ponies know Discord that she can see him doing this? Does he randomly go around trolling ponies for the lulz?

Which is the point of flight where it’s most effective, of course.
Yes, true. Which is why she should learn to love bacon instead of fish.
It’s not a zero-sum game . . . everybody wins when pony uses boob pillow.
It’s true; anything that a human says before noon probably is irrelevant.

Of course Meghan is waiting by the door for her pony. Of course she is.
She only lies a little bit . . . pony knows when Meghan lies about homework.
This is why we all welcome our pony overlords.
Yup!
Mmmm, tasty tasty bacon.
I bet real horses prefer raw oats to oatmeal. Although I haven’t researched it. . . .
I’d prefer the strawberry things to Milk Duds.
Good ponies follow the rules.
A good friend gets you to do things like that. Sean doesn’t spend enough time outside anyway . . . it’s good for him.
Good ponies do their homework in a timely manner.

If she ever actually declared an emergency, things would get very, very interesting.
They do!
I hate them. I know that a competent clerk can check my stuff out about ten times faster than the dumb machine can do it.
Hooves don’t work on touch screens, and I shudder to think of what magic might do to them.
Amusingly enough, I’m kind of out of the loop and don’t know where to get them at the moment. Although ‘tis the season. . . .
One of the best ways to serve soup, only second to a bread bowl.
Possibly dozens.
I know, right? Pony cheerleaders are best cheerleaders.
Like, if it’s the real stuff, that’s one thing. If it comes out of a spray can, the pie tastes better without it.

You know, for as weird as relativity and quantum mechnics are for the layman, can you imagine the reverse? Like a whole groups of scientists sitting in on one of Twilight’s magic lectures?
Of course she does, and who can blame her? Gusty is awesome.
She’s got a good point, though. One of my old trucks turned off when I’d take the exit ramp off a highway, and it was broken.
At this point, Meghan probably doesn’t have to advertise her YouTube channel. She’s getting views in the hundreds of thousands if not more, and all that goes with it. . . .
That’s what I’d imagine. Just a general weirdness feeling for a couple of days, and then it’s normal again.
Totally different worldview. She’s not insulted by him thinking of her as a horse, because she get a carrot at the end, and tasty noms win out over whatever he was thinking as he filed her hooves.
I’ve personally never tried it, because it seems like a poor idea. Also, I have very tough hair, as we determined one time at a shop where I used to work.
I can’t imagine waxing such a sensitive area for appearance, honestly. Hell, I don’t even like shaving my face--I got real tired of that before I was 16. . . .
I’m imagining this scene:
“Here’s a potion that can turn you into a pony, and--”
<Meghan is already drinking it>
I know, right?
This is an important lesson.
If Aric trusted her more . . . she can drive a GoKart, and a full-size pickup isn’t all that different. As long as she can reach the pedals, she can do it.
Only people who don’t have souls, I’d imagine.
I think that’s a reasonable life lesson. Certainly from Silver’s perspective, if she didn’t watch out for her little sister, all sorts of bad things could happen. Goblin kings is probably unlikely, but not entirely impossible.
Yes, yes it does.
Also a true fact.
Imagine the poor human trying to classify pony books. “Okay, this goes into fantasy.”
“Nope, that’s biography.”
“Well, surely this is--”
“History.”
“And this?”
“Geography.”
“Really?”
Most likely, he’s got a bit more of a reputation than he deserves. These days, he probably doesn’t troll too many ponies for the lulz, but he totally could if he wanted to.
Those are recyclable!

To be fair, later episodes show that he can genuinely control his arms while they're detached. Remember that Fry was frozen just before Y2K and is also a moron.

Somebody forgot to tell Silver Glow. Or else she doesn’t want an anchovy can stinking up her recycle bin.
Query:how does Silver eat anchovies from the tin without cutting up her tongue on the edges? And does she use her teeth to open them? I can't imagine how that would work.
Yes, I know, nitpicking.
Truth.

Well, she could pull the tab up with her teeth to get into the tin AFAIK most of them have pull-tabs instead of the old-fashioned key). And then just be careful around the edges when eating them. Maybe she knocks the top of the can in with a hoof, and then peels it off (although that seems less practical).
If I trusted my human teeth more, I'd try and open a can with them just to see if it's possible. Did you know I ate a bag of Taco Bell food not using my hands at all just to figure out if a pony could do it?
To be fair, there is some stuff where you kinda have to suspend disbelief.
Cedric knows.
Yeah Camrys are nice. I drive one, put about 900 miles on it since the start of September. Mine's a 2014 model that I've had since 2016, and still under 100,000 miles, but only just. I plan on driving it until the engine turns to dust.

They're pretty good cars. We don't have many customers who drive them, but we do have a few high-mileage ones (older models IIRC) and a couple low-mileage newer ones.
Kias and Hyundais are pretty nice these days, too. We've got a few customers who have them.
Being out in the country, in Michigan, we work on lots of trucks and SUVs, and it's heavily biased towards domestic cars, as you'd imagine.
