cider float 2,539 August 13, 2015 Share August 13, 2015 (edited) How come the ponies that try their hardest and are supposedly talented to be funny the least funniest? Ponies like Pinkie Pie, Troubleshoes and Cheese Sandwich. Not funny. I had more of a laugh on Twilight, Spike, Maud Pie, Fluttershy and Rarity.

Delirium 208 August 13, 2015 Share August 13, 2015 (edited) It just depends on your sense of humor, really. I think Pinkie Pie is pretty funny myself, but I find characters like Derpy fall flat on the comedy side.

SFyr 1,982 August 13, 2015 Share August 13, 2015 Probably has to do with your sense of humor, honestly. There's different categories of humor for good reason, as many focus on different approaches and can appeal to different types. The group you mentioned as funny seems to be of the more subtle, character-centered humor. Pinkie Pie and Cheese Sandwich are a more like, carefree and crazy in expression, bordering almost on slapstick. It's kind of like how British comedy shows can be so dry to some, or how some cartoons are just too stupid for others. It's just a different approach that some love, and some dislike. Heck, dark humor and toilet humor are also pretty divided. 3 Commission Thread | Deviantart | Poniverse Tumblr | Art Tumblr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Idris 241 August 13, 2015 Share August 13, 2015 Pinkie is usually comedy-relief and does it like the old cartoons used to. I laughed at them, and I laugh at her I cant think of anything to say about Derpy except she has inspired some stunning fanfic's. For that reason I'd forgive the charector for almost anything. 1 Team Idris Channel (mlp short stories) - https://m.youtube.com/user/teamidris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
碇 シンジン 27,439 August 13, 2015 Share August 13, 2015 I think some of the ponies like Snips and Snails are bit funny and Pinkie Pie is funny too =)=)=)=)=)=) Rarity Fan Club Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
----------------------- 171 August 13, 2015 Share August 13, 2015 I remember seeing reactions in which people fall of their chairs, laugh out loud, or something else utterly ridiculous at Derpy. I don't see how anything she does is considered "funny". A smile, maybe, but yeah. XD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pastel 7,630 August 13, 2015 Share August 13, 2015 (edited) Yeah it depends on your sense humor, I also find Rarity funnier than Pinkie Pie. Edited August 13, 2015 by Blobulle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyoshi Frost Wolf 42,202 August 13, 2015 Share August 13, 2015 I think every character has their really funny moments, some might be far more subtle than others though. Part of the genius with this show really. There have been different moments where I have found myself laughing at even just some of the gestures that some of the characters make. I find Pinkie to be hilarious and her character is clearly supposed to be upfront comedy relief, we can see that. I think it works. Same with Discord. Other characters it is a bit more subtle and that mostly works in it's own way. As others have said, it really depends on one's sense of humor. Also, since we are on the topic, I guess according to the ponies in Appleoosa, Troubleshoes is the master at being funny unintentionally. I actually was wondering if this topic would be about him. Redeem me into childhood. Show me myself without a shell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GuyNamedEarl 1,332 August 13, 2015 Share August 13, 2015 Pinkie Pie for me is either incredibly funny or incredibly annoying, and usually she's the latter.

PhoenixGenevieve 53 August 13, 2015 Share August 13, 2015 I actually think Pinkie Pie is hilarious whenever she's breaking the laws of physics. That's my favourite thing about her x3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LHfunk 422 August 14, 2015 Share August 14, 2015 As people have said, it's really just sense of humor. The mane six all have moments that make me laugh, and Pinkie does it best. I really like what Pinkie does, and I can't think of a time that I didn't like her. Also, on a side note, this reminded me that Cheese Sandwhich was played by Weird Al, and so was Probabilitor (I think that's how you spell it) from Gravity Falls, and both of these characters were hilarious to me. Just a side note, you don't have to care, but if you actually did read it all the way to here and didn't just think that it's stupid or doesn't matter, thanks for listening to my random ramblings.

FrozenSpark 47 August 14, 2015 Share August 14, 2015 (edited) I don't think Pinkie Pie is funny but she is cheerful, in the opening scene of "A friend in deed" she failed to make the baby cakes laugh, until she did a "Derpy move" unintentionally of course.The times when Pinkie is supposed to be funny i just face palm, kinda when she spent all the gold on candy in "The Lost Treasure of Griffonstone" Edited August 14, 2015 by FrozenSpark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S.F. 1,560 August 17, 2015 Share August 17, 2015 I think it can depend on the mood at the time, I remember when I first watched Sleepless in Ponyville - Rarity's 'I despise camping' and Sweeties singing before bed were a bit meh to me. I watched it again a few days later, and found them hilarious - I guess I was just in different moods when watching them each time. The same can be said for Pinkie, sometimes I'm finding myself laughing at every other scene with her in, and other times I'm just not feeling it as much. Although the most consistently funny I think are Rarity and Pinkie, but all of the mane 6 have had their moments *Insert deep, intelligent and witty signature here* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlinkZ 1,151 August 17, 2015 Share August 17, 2015 I dont see why Maud is supose to be funny. wll other thne that sick burn at Discord that was the only point I laughed at her. Zubric(fimfiction) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Birdy the Phoenix 70 August 17, 2015 Share August 17, 2015 You aren't alone; I don't exactly find Pinkie Pie all that funny either. Honestly, it really just depends on the joke. This is a WIP. Why are you still looking at this? Seriously. You should have looked away by now. Congratulations. You have read the 4th line. I can't believe you are still here. *sighs and walks away* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unlikeable Pony 2,700 August 19, 2015 Share August 19, 2015 Pinkie pie is Sponge bob style funny, aimed at the target audience: very little depth, just lots of LOLRANDOM action. It appeals to some, and it has its purpose.I will agree that I dislike cheese sandwhich, but keep in mind not all humor is aimed at adults; much of it is meant to draw in the younger crowd, who enjoy much more instant gratification style laughs. Plus, pinkie can be really good when she subverts her random nature, as (noted already) shown in the premier with her toning herself down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SquipyCheetah 449 August 19, 2015 Share August 19, 2015 It might have to do with people's sense of humor. I know my sense of humor is both in the dark and stupid sides, meaning that both dark and really cheesy things will get me to laugh. I actually find Pinkie Pie funny, mostly with the most cheesy jokes there are. But maybe that's just me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derpy4ever 48 August 22, 2015 Share August 22, 2015 I love all the character' humour. Though in a certain way i find Celestia the funniest for inviting people to the galla depending on how amusing they would make it. she is not very princess like (while i consider luna to be more true princess like) and thats why i love Celestia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sweetolebob18 728 August 24, 2015 Share August 24, 2015 (edited) I vaguely recall an episode of some show (Simpsons, South Park?) where one of the characters imagines they are talking to Mickey Mouse about Walt Disney & the character says "Wait a minute, You're supposed to be funny?" I kind of feel like that about MLP. Still, it has its moments Edited August 24, 2015 by sweetolebob18 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotoriousSMALL 1,984 August 24, 2015 Share August 24, 2015 I actually still find pinkie pie funny. It seems like a lot of people dont see pinkie as that funny anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
