eekwestreea grills: soomer shirts [port uno]
i sopell gud.
Well, I'm officially back from my month-long vacation. Not a lot happened, but I've got a few topics I've thought of while gone; sorry for the spontaneous disappearance.
Regardless, today is my first day back into my own bed. My laptop has been freezing without my endless CS:GO overclock (now back at it!). Now, if there are a few things I'm really looking forward in the upcoming week, it's definitely gotta be the new, second half of the MLP season (which has, surprisingly, not been leaked), 4everfreebrony's new album, and the official launch of Legends of Equestria, ALL ON THE SAME DAY, August 19th, 2017. Seriously, this Saturday is going to be the best in pony (let me know if I forgot anything). However, one thing that had slipped my mind were the Equestria Girls: Summer Shorts released a while back in Russian (or was it Spanish?). Unfortunately, my Russian speech is limited to a childish comprehension of their alphabet, no way am I going to be able to decipher that. I did hear there was a youtube who did the first reaction to the shorts and his copies were in English. I wonder if he's a Dedsec member. . .
One thing I will say before I start, is that the next few entries (including this one) are going to be more of reviews. I'll probably throw in a story in-between to add a bit more interest, but for now (considering my vacation resulted in me sitting on a coach for a month playing BoTW and Black Ops: Zombies) I'll be sticking with what I have.
I have a love-hate relationship with the Equestria Girls spin-off series. On one hand, they're fun and still somewhat related to pony. The characters still have some kind of relationship with their pony-counterparts and it's something to pass the time during the 5 month hiatuses we all seem to be getting. On the other hand, however, their recent movies, in my opinion, have been abysmal. Friendship Games was okay, but it felt too much like the first movie and please, I beg of you, don't get me started on Legends of Everfree. Something about it really didn't click with me and the ending was awful. The last thing we need in EQG is MORE SUPERPOWERS, trust me on that. I digress, but only because I blame most of these catastrophes on the writer, Josh Haber (even if he didn't write LoEF, Season 6 was his fault, sorry, Josh).
I'm going to split this review into three parts because I need more entries. Just an fyi, k thx bye

The Equestria Girls Summer Shirts [2017] are a collection of 3 episode-sized animations created to break the ice while Hasbro counts money and makes another EQG Abomination to surpass the last. All three of these episodes feature Sunset Glimmer and her band of cronies finding new ways to infect the earth with their new strain of immortally impenetrable friendship. The first episode starts off with everyone's favorite, but not quite famous yet, Femband washing cars so Twilight can afford an extra dose of VRAM for use with her Bitcoin mining project. However, as it turns out, Twilight's motherboard isn't able handle the new GPU so she asks Rarity to fork over an extra 10,000 dollars for a completely new system.
"Rarity_give_me_your_money_now," She says.
Rarity is reluctant toward doing so, but caves in as she realizes her superpowers are completely useless when compared to the alihuman telekinesis.
"Good_I_don't_want_to_resort_to_dogecoin_again_those_are_worthless."
After Rarity's consultation with her greedy fiends, Rarity finds herself wandering the empty corridors of the local mall like any good teenager with nothing to do on their spare time but Snapchat and drink Mountain Dew or Monster while still trying to make skinny jeans look good (it's not possible). However, while window shopping, Rarity discovers the wonders of "modern fashion" and realizes that she's going to have to ditch the fancy skinny jeans and wear something shiny; i.e., she found a dress in a store and declared to the entire establishment that as Celestia is her witness (the principal?), she would don that outfit. The only problem was that the gown cost exactly the same amount as Twilight's GPU, what a coincidence.
Rarity then tries to meet up with her friends at the high school (because going home is for nerds!) and does her best to bargain with Twilight under terms that, "it would be a most profitable endeavor".
"Rarity_what_makes_this_"endeavor"_profitable.jpg?"
That's the part when Rarity says the word, "Dresses" and everyone caves in because Piemations did a funny (if anyone remembers). So Rarity, with her money, goes to the store and buys the dress, realizing that she had just blown all of Twilight's money. However! Hope is not lost as she remembers COMPUTERS exist in Not-Equestria!
So Rarity goes to the library and makes a youtube video of her dancing to Redbone. That was the lesson of the episode.
If you wanted a real lesson that wasn't a rehash of the same thing, you should've watched "Rarity Takes Manehattan" (Season 4, Episode 8).
