What's stopping the pegasi from crapping on other ponies?

DESIGNATED.

SHITTING.

SKIES.

@ the OP

 

Sapience? Having class? Not being a drug addict? This is probably one of those areas where this species differs greatly from humans. No scarcity means less or no depravity, probably. Plus, if they did, there'd be no guarantee another HIGHER-flying Pegasus wouldn't do it to THEM if it became the norm. It's probably one of those Pandora's outhouses they juuuuust don't think they should open up.

[twiia 1,844]

Because it's rude and nasty

[cuteycindyhoney 13,341]

I'm calling Pegasus crap on that. Due to the small mass of the poop...

Question. Have you ever seen a horse poop? It's NOT a small mass.

[GenderIsAnIllusion 2,178]

oh silly filly...... ponies dont crap... they just expel rainbows and bubblegum farts out of their bums.

[PacificGreen 1,165]

If RD just decided to do this, she would get caught by the authorities.

 

If all the pegasi in Equestria just decided to do it and then fly back to Cloudsdale before any of the other ponies could catch them, theoretically, yes, they could do that. In which case the earth ponies could retaliate by not giving them food or whatever. Unicorns...I dunno, they could create a magic laser beam powerful enough to incinerate the pegasi in retaliation I suppose.

 

Otherwise, it's just common sense.

[Justin_Case001 4,939]

Well this certainly is an interesting conversation.

I can't say that I ever expected this type of discussion to come up.

I guess this fanbase really has talked about everything we possibly can by now.

Yup, that's it; we're officially out of things to talk about.

 

Nevermind common decency; I'm sure 99.9% of all ponies would never even consider doing this purely because of the self-interested reason of humiliation.  Even if you didn't think you'd get caught, how would you feel about sh*tting in public?  I don't think most people would do it.  However, surely there would be quite a few troublesome young colts who wouldn't care, and would probably do this.  I'm definitely picturing Equestrian Jackass here: "It's a beautiful morning in Ponyville, and Twilight's just about to come out of her castle.  Hi, I'm Rainbow Dash, and this is The Dive Bomb."

 

And now, this:

 

I've actually had this candy.  It's so terrible, just like all these weird BonBon candies.

Mageklatter...Do seagulls make it, or is that what happens if you eat it?

That would make it a hate crime against all non-pegasus ponies. I could see that happening before the founding of Equestria when none of them got along, just not in the present. 

[KatonRyu 1,036]

You see, it's a kids show and therefore the writers wouldn't write a script where one character took a dump on someone else.

 

You would think that, but given there's a kids' book about a mole trying to figure out who shat on his head it's really not outside the world of possibilities. And in that book, once the mole found the culprit he responded in kind.

[Sunny Fox 5,961]

Well, we have canonically seen an outhouse, and even Applejack coming out of it, with a flushing sound effect, so the idea of *ahem* expelling waste certainly is acknowledged in-universe.

[Mentis Soliloquy 3,029]

Well they all united for a reason if the pegasi did this they'd starve and the unicorns would destroy their cities. The three races are better together than apart, kinda why Equestria is called that in the first place.

I doubt that would happen if a few pegasi shit on one or two unsuspecting ponies. It's an isolated occurrence. 

[Mentis Soliloquy 3,029]

@,

 

OH

 

you meant it literally... geeze I suppose it would suck for those down below but I really don't see it happening.   

[cider float 2,539]

There's only one time pegasi does this and that's over earth pony plant fields. Yes sir, they don't need to go out to fertilize those crops.

[SilverStarApple 850]

Nothing is PHYSICALLY stopping them, save perhaps an inbuilt reluctance to crap in the air, since I think horses prefer to stop when they crap.

 

There are likely laws against crapping on ponies, but yes, ponies could get away with it. Just like a Unicorn could transmute a pony's body into candy, eat the evidence, and then memory-wipe themselves so nobody knew what happened to the now-being-digested-slowly probably-still-conscious pony.

 

But yeah, if this show was given an adult rating, I could totally see Rainbow Dash doing that. And Fluttershy doing it sometimes in secret when in Pushy Mode, knowing it'll be blamed on Rainbow Dash. Also, if they ever do an official crossover with an adult show, you might see a crapping scene. Or not. I'm not too sure.

[cider float 2,539]

I suppose Shitfire would of done this...

The act is so despicable not even the rude dragons do it. -_-

[silvadel 1,394]

One other point -- you don't see any cloud houses inside Ponyville limits.  Dash has the only cloud house and it is WAY out of town.

[Cwanky 17,792]

Now that I think about it, pegasi and griffons aside, what stops something as powerful as a dragon from crapping on other Equestrians?

 

If we go by the standards set, dragons are very strong, resilient and even the Wonderbolts proved no match for an overgrown Spike. Had a bigger meaner dragon decided to "crap" on Equestrians, what would realistically stop them, save the princesses or elements? 

 

I guess we should be very glad Spike can't fly or hasn't fully matured yet. It might rain more than just fire if he did and got into a rage. :crackle:

Fluttershy could just stare and scold any dragon off. Although I do think if a dragon took a gigantic shit in any Equestrian city, a lot of ponies would die from the stench alone.

 

Garble and those other teenaged punk dragons are probably harder to deal with because they have the numbers. I'm surprised they hadn't thought of looking for ponies to crap on.

[Invincible 2,092]

Flying horse crap, literally in this case. I just think most choose not to do their business mid-flight. Then again, since they have hardier stomachs then birds maybe it's the effort that comes with squeezing a number 2 out from their bowels while flying which makes this impractical

Yay, Crackle emoticon!

 

I shudder to think at the calamitous mess former Lord Scorch would cause should he ever decide to drop a deuce over Ponyville while flying by...

 

 

I suppose Shitfire would of done this...

 

I think in her case she just lost control due to nerves. (Wow, her having loose bowels due to nerves during her first flight with the Wonderbolts is so plausible it feels like it's canon even though it really isn't.)

Here's how a pegasus gets ultimate revenge without getting caught or causing a health issue from pooping directly on somepony's head:

• Find your mortal enemy's house.
• Fill up on lots of oats, beans, and cheese.
• Wait till midnight and perch up on top of their chimney. (If they don't have a chimney, go home - you're done.)
• Drop a big, stinky, present down it. If you really hate your enemy, leave an additional gift in the form of your own version of "liquid pride" in their fireplace.
• Hide behind a bush the next morning and watch your enemy blow up over how their living room smells like an outhouse.
• Profit?

Technically, an adept unicorn could do something along these lines too, presuming they know how to teleport...stuff.

Now that griffons and dragons were brought into it, I can't help but wonder about the alicorns. Celestia's the one making all the laws, so she would have the power to make herself immune to them. She and Luna are quite possibly the only ones who could shit on any pony's head in public, declare it an act of punishment for a crime they made up, and no pony could say a word to them. Sure, it wouldn't be in their character to do something that low. But if Chrysalis or some other villain had the means to brainwash them into doing it, well, that's a problem that would quickly escalate to every lowlife being inspired to follow their example. With ponies thinking, "If the princesses can do it, so can I!", Equestria would get covered in shit so fast, the economy would collapse over night.

That's actually worse when you think about it. I'm sure no pony wants to breath all that fecal bacteria floating in the air. That's what makes people want to throw up when they walk near a pile of crap or into an overwhelming fart. You can get sick regardless if you touched it or not. And even if that fireplace got cleaned, lighting it up would cause some leftover residue to spread the bacteria across the neighborhood. Then every pony would end up painting the roads with their own vomit, hence even more bacteria spreads and a new cycle of vomiting begins. Twilight would need a damned good spell to help her breath in Ponyville without catching diseases, because that's a lot of shit for her to clean up.

[Rarity Is Best Pony 636]

I'd assume that common courtesy stops that from happening.

[Luminance 2,188]

The Wonderbolt's aerial attack consisting of these so-called "bombs". No weapons allow in the show so a poop joke will suffice.
