It's hardly the worst thing that has graced these pages and I'm the sensitive one.
That must be it!
Celestia is actually pretty awesome. She doesn't deserve the hate the tinfoilers that follow her every move, obsessively looking for mistakes, give her. She could pay Twilight a little more mind though.
I can't say those cutie marks fit the characters very well. How does a cut apple show carpentry? A bell works alright for singing I suppose. Scootaloo's should be a vehicle.
I must be dumb, who is the pony on the cloud?

Only becasue she cheated and gave the spiders life...
She did learn to play from Applejack after all.
Though, she must have had more training, becasue Applejack would only be good enough to get her second place...

You sir have an absurd amount of resentment for Luna and AJ.

She won first, second and third place. Won't deny she could go for gold in spider throwing, but taking all three spots.. that's cheating.
And AJ being a cheater doesn't mean she's not a cool pony, and super-adorable.

He has an absurd amount of resentment for Luna and a reasonable amount of resentment for AJ.

You should show up and shun them with your encyclopedic knowledge.

Don't. Just don't.
Unless you want your email filled with letters starting with "HELLO EVERYPONY!"

I joined a similar, though not through the college, club in my area, and to be honest, it has been rather nice. Mostly the web postings they do the 'everypoy' nonsense (which, as some may know when I was on IRC, I don't take kindly to.) Still, been ok, and excellent bleed over to my local Steetpass group.
Although when I was wearing my "yay" shirt today and left the mall, I got this random, non-group pony fan telling me to be 'louder'...I figured out halfway through the second demand to be louder, he was referring to the shirt...=p
I am in your head all day err' day.
I don't think that carpentry/singing/athletics are going to be Apple Bloom/Sweetie Belle/Scootaloo's cutie marks. I think they could have been their cutie marks.
Standard book-logic for getting their cutie marks ASAP (the CMC's stated goal) would have been to focus on the things that they like and they're already good at, but the CMC did the opposite. They mixed things up and tried doing new things that they actually wanted to try.
Sweetie Belle actively did not want ponies making a big deal about her singing, it made her uncomfortable, so she instead chose to work with her hooves and try building things, and Apple Bloom taught her the importance of cleaning her brushes. Apple Bloom tried her hoof at dancing, and Scootaloo gave her some pointers. Scootaloo didn't want to dance, she wanted to sing, and Sweetie Bell helped her write the music/lyrics.
Instead of being shoehorned into the things they were good at, these ponies broadened their horizons and had fun getting better at things they were bad at. And they've continued doing that. By constantly trying and failing, they're putting off the onset of their cutie marks, and in this time, they've had the chance to grow and change, so maybe choices that were obvious before have become unclear.
IMO, the only cutie mark for the three of them to grow into -the one that represents what they enjoy and what they're good at- already exists, and it's the CMC logo. They could either get three matching ones, or slightly unique personalized ones. I think three matching is more appropriate. And yes, I know that matching cutie marks have apparently never happened in pony history. There's always a first time.
Nah, that was just the right amount.
I'll listen to you anytime!
I had always assumed that cutie marks are something you are born into. A pony will always be the same in the end regardless of what they do with themselves. Twilight's was always to be amazing at magic the moment she was born. This was my assumption anyways.
Nice to see you here Chuck
Yeah, i don't follow this thread as much as i used to.

And on the sixth day the LORD David Bowie created man and woman in His image. And he saw that it was good. On the seventh day the LORD created videogames so that He might take the bloody day off for once.
AJ's hat needs an origin story.

OMG just heard "My Fluttershy" and "Let your mane down (by Replacer)" and I need more of this in my life!!!
Please, please, pleeeaaase post more music that sounds like those songs pleeeeease!!!!!
Not sure how I missed it. That ultimate metal crusaders remix is pretty awesome.
I've always been a fan of the simple 8-bit fan renditions from all the shows songs.

Yeah, it sounds like an RPG battle theme.
Maybe I should check out some of this fan music afterall.

Hay, Miss Derpy
On a side note, I love that the fandom has gotten to the point of remixing each other's songs. I love different takes on things.
Me too! I also like when people do 8-bit songs in the style of certain games or traditional "roles" in games. Like this "boss fight" mix of This Day Aria.
Final Day Area
Wow, that is very well done. Sounds just like a boss fight while staying faithful to the original source.
That pixel rendition of Cadence also makes me think a GBA-like game with a pokemon style battle scene would be pretty awesome.

Celestia once again rewards the nice people who don't call her a troll.

Target website says available in stores. I'd go check it out, there's usually an aisle int he bedding department with all their fleece throw blankets.
Thanks, next time I'm at a target I'll take a look.
