    I dunno if Colgate is really seen as a time travel pony by that many people. I think most just consider her to be a toothpaste pony. But if one does want to imagine her as a time traveler, we know little of what her character might be like as one. Meanwhile, we have David Tennant as a basis for Doctor Hooves' character, and David Tennant is sexy and amazing. So, even though I love Colgate, I prefer Doctor Hooves (No to mention, he's my favorite background pony).

    I voted no, because honestly the dolls look creepy in my opinion, as well as not being very accurate to the looks of the movie. I most likely will be picking up the DVD, but I don't really count that as merch. However, if there was a "maybe" option in the poll, I would have picked that. The other reason why I don't want the dolls is I'm a bit bad at taking care of doll hair, and I've decided to focus on collecting the blind bags as opposed to the brushables, since they have sculpted hair, are more show-accurate in my opinion, and there are more of them to collect. So, if Hasbro came out with little EqG figures that were accurate and roughly blind bag size, you can bet I'd buy 'em in an instant. But until they do, EqG merch gets a pass from me.

    I haven't seen EqG yet, but my headcanon is this: Flash dated Sunset because of initial interest, then broke up with her when he realized they weren't very compatible. Maybe she did something that wasn't very nice, and that was the final straw for him. I don't know if they state how long the two dated, but if they don't, it was probably only a month or something. High school relationships usually aren't well-planned and usually don't last.

    I honestly don't see anything wrong with putting homosexual romance in a kids' show. I don't see how people can say it'll have a huge influence on kids, when heterosexuality is pretty much paraded throughout tons of cartoons. It's not like there would be anything explicit in the show. If a homosexual couple was to be shown, it would probably be done similarly to how Mr. and Mrs. Cake are shown: a loving couple, but not offensively so. If it's okay for a show to have a straight couple having a baby and another straight couple getting married, I don't see how it isn't okay to show two female or two male characters who have romantic involvement. I'd like to add that sexuality is NOT a choice. I spent over two and a half years trying to date men - I was never that attracted to them, and I would often cry, scream, and feel unhappy with them. My longest relationship with a man lasted for seven months. It was long-distance to boot (though I did date men in person as well), so there was less uncomfortable-ness on my part, and I really, truly loved and cared about him. But as the relationship went on, I grew less and less happy. It got to the point where I was fighting back tears at the mere mention of him. And while he did do some things that made me less happy, I think it was my discomfort with men that really decreased my happiness - it's how I had always felt when I dated men, and it built up even stronger over time. Not long after, I dated a woman online, and for once, I actually felt happy. I was attracted to her and comfortable with her. Never before had I known that a relationship could actually feel good and be stress-free. So I tried for a long time to change, dating a variety of men and having good and bad relationships with them (I even dated a feminine guy and still had the stress!). So, while I technically can choose to date a man, that's choosing who to date, not choosing my sexuality. My brain is hard-wired to only be attracted to and comfortable with women. As far as FiM goes, I highly doubt they'll ever outright show a gay couple. Sure, they drop some hints, like putting Lyra and Bon Bon together, and some FlutterDash-ish stuff, but it's easily missable and not a "for certain, these characters are gay" thing. While I do think FiM could handle the topic of homosexuality incredibly well, I doubt they'll risk upsetting the tons of overly-conservative parents out there. If you think Derpygate was bad in terms of parental outrage, this would be way worse. I do hope we see homosexual couples pop up in kids' shows in the future, but with FiM being so parent-reliant, I doubt it'll be the show to do it.

    Surgery to remove eyebrow cysts later today. I might not be on much after that, as I will probably be wiped out. Much love, everypony <3

      It went pretty well. I'm in some pain, but even that's not too bad :)

      :) Well that's good. I'm glad you're feeling better.:D

      Thanks! I had major nausea yesterday, that culminated in vomiting. I thought my pills were causing it, but I just learned that anesthesia can effect someone for up to 24 hours, and my pills haven't made me nauseous today. So it's a relief to learn I had all that nausea from the anesthesia, and won't be suffering every time I take a pill.

    Even without the Elements, Twilight is the most powerful magic wielder, so she would be a good candidate to stop them. Of course, they could introduce Flutter Ponies in this way, and that would be fine too ^-^

    The scheming face is the reason I think he's evil. Maybe it was difficult to see in my other post, so take a better look at his face: He's practically making the same face Pinkie was making. I know this doesn't for sure mean he's going to be a villain, but it's fun to speculate. Either way, I hope he appears in the show so that we get some sort of explanation as to why he has such a unique expression.

    I just remembered an old OC of mine, Demented Hearts: She had a special brand of magic that corrupted the hearts of ponies, even though she was an Earth Pony. So, the writers could probably do something like this, maybe with a magical artifact similar to the Alicorn Amulet or something. It would certainly be difficult to pull off an Earth Pony supervillain, but it's probably possible.
  9. Spring Storm
    *Cough cough* Okay, so he hasn't appeared in the show, but he is an Earth Pony, and I'd imagine he'd be a minor antagonist along the lines of Flim and Flam. So I don't think Earth Pony antagonists are completely off the table. As far as major antagonists go, it is difficult to think of ways an Earth Pony could manage to threaten entire nations, so it would make more sense for things such as Unicorns or mythological creatures to threaten them, but eh, anything is possible I suppose.

    I highly doubt they'll ever add more elements, because the six seem to work under specific guidelines, but it's an interesting theory nonetheless. As far as Cadence goes, I think she doesn't quite qualify as an element wielder. Love is merely what her type of magic is based on - like how most ponies have a few specific things they can do with their magic. Why was Cadence able to defeat Chrysalis? Well, because she's built her magic up to such a powerful point that it was effective, and possibly because Changelings are love-based as well. Also notable is that the Elements of Harmony have been wielded by Celestia and Luna, but Cadence's powers are hers and hers alone. I wouldn't mind seeing more powerful magic like this in the show - Shining Armor having courage-based powers would be fitting, for example - but calling them Elements of Harmony would be a bit of a misnomer.

    I'm really hoping we'll see more of them in season 4. I would think Twilight would need to interact with them a bit more now that she's a princess. Hopefully we'll see more of Cadence too - all three of them could use some major character development.

    Uh, not so sure about Rarity "topping out the charts", in fact I'm pretty sure she usually comes in last when people vote for best pony, which is a shame, because she's AMAZING! Dash definitely tops the charts. It was a difficult decision, but I voted for Dash because I like her the tiniest bit better
  13. Spring Storm
    I don't wear makeup, I'm attracted to women, I fart, I burp, I watch tons of videos about video games on YouTube, I rarely wear anything that shows cleavage and prefer shirts that are slightly big. I guess I'm pretty guy-like for a girl XD
  14. Spring Storm
    AppleDash and PinkieShy are my two favorite non-canon ships. As far as canon goes, RariPants could happen, and would fit well. And Sparity is just the sweetest thing :3
  15. Spring Storm
    I hope they make a new intro - it would feel a little weird to keep the old one now that Twilight has wings. Hopefully, they'll make it about 20% cooler than it was before.

    I LOVE the new Fairy type! Can't wait to use one. Fairies will likely become a staple of my teams, and I'm betting it'll replace Fire as my second favorite type :3

    I would most likely live in Cloudsdale. I see myself living somewhere other than Ponyville, though perhaps I would move there later. I would work as a weather pony, since my OC is a weather pony who specializes in storms.
  18. Spring Storm
    Agreed! Specifically, I want to see a male Pegasus who is a recurring character. We have Big Macintosh for Earth Pony and Shining Armor for Unicorn. Not to mention, Doctor Hooves, Meadow Song, Noteworthy, Barber Groomsby (hasn't been in an episode yet, but his blind bag toy is really villain-looking), all Earth Ponies. Fancy Pants, Snips and Snails, Flim and Flam, heck even Prince Blueblood, all Unicorns. This is probably only an unpopular opinion of mine because people don't really think of it, but we need more male Pegasi!
  19. Spring Storm
    I second this notion. This would be the greatest thing ever and would likely automatically become my favorite episode. David Tennant for the win!

    Here in Southern California, our weather is like this: Winter - Kinda cold, but not much. A bit of rain. Spring - Perfect temperatures. Some rain. Summer - Perfect temperatures until August when it starts to get hot. Fall - WHAT THE HELL?! SUMMER'S SUPPOSED TO BE OVER, WHY IS IT HOTTER NOW THAN IT WAS DURING SUMMER?! But yeah, SoCal is pretty much spring and summer all the time.

    I like them both alright. They're not my favorite ponies by any means, but they're okay as comic relief and I hope we get some actual characterization for them at some point. But I'm not a fan of Snips' huge eyebrows, his color scheme, or his mane. So definitely, Snails.
  22. Spring Storm
    My dream partner would have freckles, be a fellow brony, love cats and Pokemon, and she would smell good and be really pretty. The chances of meeting a woman who has all these traits and is lesbian/bi/pan are extremely slim, which is why I have been dating the person who meets this criteria for a year and eight months now

    Another one: I don't hate Twist or Snips and Snails. Twist never did anything bad and was a great friend to Apple Bloom, and I honestly find it a little odd that we haven't seen her more. I know most don't like her, but I don't think a line or two from Twist would be a bad thing. Snips and Snails are fine as far as comic relief goes in my opinion, and I wouldn't mind seeing some character development from them.
  24. Spring Storm
    Diamond Tiara is incredibly adorable ^-^ I have her little blind bag figure, and she's definitely among the cutest of them (Apple Bloom really takes the cake on blind bag figure cuteness, though )
  25. Spring Storm
    I've lost track of how much I've spent. I've stopped collecting brushables, though, because I'm not that great at taking care of hair. Focusing on blind bags, which are more show-accurate anyway I got my first blind bag set from Toys R Us in early 2012, and have been collecting them ever since.
