ggg-2 3,553 August 22, 2014 Share August 22, 2014 Snips' talent is relatively easy to figure out, but what is Snails' talent? a snail cutie mark is rather odd. 1 Don't be a nerd. Join the herd! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buck Testa 5,505 August 22, 2014 Share August 22, 2014 Snips and snails are based off the rhyme "snips and snails and puppydog tails, that is what little boys are made of" their talent is being stereotypical little boys, which is why they are less interesting then Mauds pet rock. 9 http://www.fimfiction.net/user/Billy%20G%20Gruff http://billyggruff.deviantart.com/ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCPVpSXbUpDYTcaFHTPiPjYA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Literally Snails 2,307 August 22, 2014 Share August 22, 2014 I feel like it would be ironic for me to reply to this topic. 9 Previously known as: Supahsnail, Snails, SnailZOID, Snails (The Beautiful), The Beautiful Snailzuki, Pretty Koenma, SecretAgentSnails, Topaz, SnailZOID Reynolds, SnailZOID Cage, and Snails The Klayman Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC7ks7cTevfRojdvkwD5yROg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Visual Spectrum 1,932 August 22, 2014 Share August 22, 2014 His special talent is collecting snails or studying shelled creatures. (Too lazy to look up what the proper word is.) He probably doesn't have an actual special talent like most of the characters in the show. Why they have their cutie marks, I don't know. In my Snips and Snails fan fiction, Snip's special talent is cutting coupons, but it's a fanfiction. I didn't mention Snail's special talent in it. But it might have something to do with collecting snails. 1 Applejack Fan Club Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pastel 7,630 August 22, 2014 Share August 22, 2014 Maybe he likes snails? Maybe his cutie mark has a hidden meaning? Or maybe the one who drew him gave him a random name and cutie mark. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wind Chaser 4,768 August 22, 2014 Share August 22, 2014 (edited) Maybe he has an unseen pet snail, which we'll never see because he's too busy being co-worst pony with his dumb little buddy Snips. However, with Snips, it's much easier to imply that he probably has no balls. :comeatus: And the whole thing with their names referencing "snips and snails and puppy dog tails" implies that they're very talented at being negative male stereotypes and perpetuating the gender divide in a show that's supposed to bridge the gender divide.

I wonder if that played any part in the fact that no one likes them what so ever....hmmm....

Old Fluttershy 349 August 22, 2014 Share August 22, 2014 It probably has some secret meaning, after all Cheerilee has three flowers yet her talent is teaching not gardening. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cwanky 17,652 August 22, 2014 Share August 22, 2014 Snails talent as many have noted, is being a stereotypical boy, which is ironic given that since Lauren Faust and the writers try to make FiM more appealing to everyone, Hasbro still insists on marketing it heavily as a show for stereotypical girls. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falsey 44 August 23, 2014 Share August 23, 2014 Like many ponies, he seemingly has a talent that is useless, and even detrimental, poor Snail. I think his detrimental talent is being slow. 1 Would you like to play with me? I'd like to play with you, forever, and ever, and ever! No... no you can't have it! It's mine! Stay back!

Pinkamena-Pills 6,840 August 23, 2014 Share August 23, 2014 (edited) His special talent is being a cringe-worthy male stereotype. The snail on his flank represent the amount of imaginative motion that was going on in his creators mind when he was conceived,in other words: Not a whole lot.

Unlikeable Pony 2,700 September 10, 2015 Share September 10, 2015 Two theories. A. He's a chef and the snail symbolizes cooking escargo. B. he's an entomologist. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chirox the pony 1,336 September 10, 2015 Share September 10, 2015 He doesn't have one. Neither does Snips. Both are just a result of the animators lack of imagination (at least in regards to those characters). 1 No matter how hard I try these ponies will simply never leave me.

RivkaBobble 110 September 10, 2015 Share September 10, 2015 Snails seems to be monumentally slow in speed and thinking. Perhaps he's just slow like a snail.

Empty Room 512 September 10, 2015 Share September 10, 2015 His talent resides in being slow, in all senses. That is why his cutie mark is a snail. 1 "Have you ever felt the need to see more than you can see?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Overlord0909 479 September 10, 2015 Share September 10, 2015 (edited) No one took it as a snail being slow, so he's good at being slow too?
