  1. It was actually a clip from "The Ticket Master" that caught my attention and attracted me to the show thanks to Pinkie Pie.

    The first episode in the first couple of minutes felt like it was going to be yet another dig at the socially reclusive folk. Condescended and talked down to about getting out more and making friends to fit in with the la-de-da image of social expectation. That everybody should be some kind of bloody extrovert. Because introverts are weird people and something is wrong with them because society and popular people say so. The whole "put down the books and go outside you nerd!" mentality. You know. Stuff that makes you want to vomit and take over the world just to spite them all. Which to be honest, I used to strongly consider many years ago. :yeahno:

    Although it did kind of have that go out and make friends sort of thing going. It wasn't obnoxious about it. Which was a mercy. They didn't try to change who Twilight was, but instead worked from the angle of expanding her horizons. Rather than the whole social militant message of "Change who you are to fit in with us, nerd horse! Or be outcast to oblivion!"

    Anyway. I originally started watching when it was half way through the first season at the time. It really doesn't seem like that long ago. :ButtercupLaugh:
