My god, I'm really getting sick of seeing 300 hearts sitting on the social tab and can't do a single sausage about it because ever since the Valentine's update, the app keeps crashing whenever I click on any of those hearts. Too bad, I'm too far to reset everything.. ugh.

Interesting comment from the Unicon, when Tara Strong was asked on whether Twilight Sparkles was going to live a 'very long time', she said yes to the question.

Sorry to post something not realized to the preview and info, but I think the twitter quote was implying that the trailer of the final episode only showed the 1/3 of the premise.

Regardless of whether you agree or disagree with the decisions the Hasbro make on the show, it is their product and we have to accept that. The unfortunate side of thing is that we tend to give more notice to outspoken criticisms filled with personal emotions and opinions than a fair criticism that contains well reasoned arguments that tries to view from different perspectives. As a person who loved read stories that requires you to think 'critically' which usually contained plenty of dark themes, perhaps there are few areas in the show that I find it disturbing. (The first book I've read voluntarily was My Sweet Orange Tree, written by a famous Latin American author which was about a kid with a tough childhood. I think I read it when I was 6 years old.) However, the way the show is the climate of the mainstream public entertainment show for the young audience. By studying the various aspects involved in the current series, I've learned a great deal of many things which I won't mention here since that would takes pages of arguments and explanations. But since I am quite interested in the children's fiction, the experience I've had with this show have been certain very interesting and enlightening. I am not entirely sure about the general idea about 'enjoying something means not taking it seriously' which popped up multiple times in this post however. As a person who values education and critical thinking, a great deal of enjoyment comes from being entertained by other people's ideas, to think critically about those ideas, and to think what I can do with those ideas. And because of that, I fail to see the negativity behind 'over-thinking' the show. There are quite a lot of masterclass literature aimed for children that contains complex ideas as well. Furthermore, the one thing I've agreed with the various discussions I've had with number of English professors was that a good children's literature must be able to evoke a response that starts and ends with a question. Therefore I find the argument that it's just a kid's story a fairly weak argument. Perhaps it's just me. Since I consider myself to be an unusual case who has a bachelor's degree in chemistry and now trying to get a degree in physics while continuing my self-taught education in Art and Writing as well. Perhaps I have a scholastic mentality. I would like to end this comment with a question however. The one thing that I've noticed from a comment made by the lead story developer on his/her(because I can't remember)'s justification behind making TS a princess was that 'every young girl wants to be a princess.' I must wonder if that's a valid argument.

As the person above states, your statement feels more as if you're trying to find a scapegoat for the negativity surrounding this fandom. Here's a thing. One of the most prominent artist in this fandom is JJ. The thing is he has ton of anthropomorphized ponies in this DA gallery and his Molestia tumblr page is probably one of the most visited webpage by the bronies. Furry fandom is something you will never be able to separate from this fandom. R34 implies that if it exists, then there's a pornography stuff related for it, countless times this internet rule have proven to be true. Just accept the negativity that comes with you enjoying this show. Same kind of thing comes with playing video games as an adult, and same kind of thing comes with watching anime as well. As long as you enjoy anything that isn't 'mainstream', then there's always going to be someone who has a problem with your habit.

I don't know. Making comparison between a terrible idea and a really terrible idea doesn't really mean suddenly a terrible idea is better. They both end up being terrible.
