Champion RD92 8,658 November 13, 2012 Share November 13, 2012 Imagine that you have the choice to leave Earth and live in Equestria. What would be the pros and cons of living in Equestria? Note: In this scenario, you would be in the universe of MLP:FIM, so you would be able to meet all of the characters from the show (Mane 6, etc.) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mercury Crescendo 69 November 13, 2012 Share November 13, 2012 Hmmm, let's see. For me, I wouldn't be able to eat any meats, which is a con. It seems like the MLP:FiM universe has no death. (At least no deaths that are made known.) I guess another con would be adapting. Other than that, think about the pros! -You get to meet and befriend the practical celebrity status ponies. (Celebrities to us at least.) -Almost everyone in Equestria is an extremely friendly pony. -Recreational activities all day. -Big Adventures! -Tons of fun! (No, really.) Man, you have me thinking of a better world again. It's time for everyone to love and tolerate each other. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~Lawful Jordo~ 2,066 November 13, 2012 Share November 13, 2012 (edited) Since it has not been stated, I assume you are still in your human body when living in equestria? PROS: - Almost everyone gets along - get to meet your favorite ponies - Hardly any prejudice - Lyra would probably fangirl over you (Considering you are the only human in Equestria) CONS: - you would stick out like a sore thumb, being the only human. - Though at first you may not think so, you'd get really lonely being the only one of your species. You couldn't relate to anyone. - Everything in Equestria is made for ponies, not humans. - No meat. That means no Bacon. - You would never see your current friends/family again.

Dreadmallon 353 November 13, 2012 Share November 13, 2012 - No meat. That means no Bacon. - You would never see your current friends/family again. These are the only cons I would have, considering I get a pony body when going to Equestria. Wait...can I take my best friends and family w/ me ? And I'm practically carnivore... But the pros are a practically non-conflictive world, and nearly everyone is kind. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ahhh, but that's the beauty of this scenario; It is not stated if you'd get a pony body, hence we can only assume that you remain human. You would be out of your element as a human, hence there would be a lot more cons.

Rainbow Dash Loyalty 1,275 November 13, 2012 Share November 13, 2012 Pros: - Meeting the Mane 6 - Adventures, it's a big world in Equestria with strange creatures - New friends - Your own song? xP - Seeing things you could never see on Earth Cons: - Never see your family and friends - Only human in Equestria - Probably a random villain out of nowhere would come out of the past and kill you or something - New enemies/bullies - No technology - 2 ~Signature created by Chaotic Discord~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XrosOver 613 November 13, 2012 Share November 13, 2012 (edited) Pros: -I got to Equestria -I meet ponies -Im in a new world with a schist ton of unexplored territory (for us bronies) -If human, I am the only one in existence (bitter-sweet) -If pony, I can have a solid relationship -BOOKS! -Enough cuteness to make my organs explode rainbows and blood... -Music that spontaneously comes into existence as soon as you start singing -Can introduce the good aspects of human culture to ponies (like movies and ideas for music and books) -Go on a hunt for Canon OC's that were made by us Cons: -mythical beasts that will ultimately try to make me into a snack -banishment from pony civilization (could happen) -I have underdeveloped survival skills... -The most important...no forums..

Starshine 16,334 November 30, 2012 Share November 30, 2012 Cons? You will not be accepted easily. The ponies are rather xenophobic and prone to panic. While they didn't go crazy at the sight of Gilda, they went completely nuts when Zecora, a creature who looked exactly like a pony sans the color. Who knows what kind of lynch mob they will make when humans arrived You can't do jack shit. The ponies have magic and wings and whatever earth ponies have, to contribute to the community. What can a single human do? Technologies? Unless you can re-invent cheap electricity and other stuff human needs to survive by yourself, good chance you will only be a dead weight in the community. Sure, you can adapt to the pony lifestyle, but that will only means you're nothing but an exotic creature that can't really do anything that ponies can't do. Pros? At least you will die a colorful death 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TailsIsNotAlone 3,695 November 30, 2012 Share November 30, 2012 Can't go wrong with a "living in Equestria" topic! I won't even throw in the "but I'd have to be a pony!" requirement. That's not a big deal to me. Honestly if I had a choice, I might stay human. It's not a really racist (speciesist?) place.CONS:*No more meat-eating, which rules out most fast food as well. NOOOOOO!*Can't watch the shows or play all the games I've worked so hard to collect over the years. Just books. Damn.*No Internet, so I wouldn't be able to tell all of you about the experience...*Apparently, no beer.*Can't see my family ever again.*Since it's a parallel universe, there may be a live show or at least a book series in Equestria called My Big Human: Hatred and Violence Are Not Magic. (I doubt it would sell, though.)PROS:*PONIES, oh my god the ponies!*A world with magic would be awesome.*Liars and jerks tend to get what's coming to them, whereas they rarely do on Earth.*In Equestria you don't have to work your ass off for nothing, unlike most of the jobs I've had IRL...and there are many ponies who don't seem to do anything steady for a living. Hooray for me! The nature of the Equestrian economy is left to the imagination, but it's got to be better than ours, since most ponies believe in doing more than just lining their own pockets.*I would have at least some friends. Nice guys still have a chance in Ponyville. In real life, forget it. And I wouldn't be really picky about my friendships. I'd be honored to know just one of the Mane 6. ^^ But I would have one priority...*Marrying Rainbow Dash. Impossible, perhaps, but it's worth a try! 4 "Human beings fascinate me Being just the way they are..." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
himanuts 165 November 30, 2012 Share November 30, 2012 Cons: -Human in a world full of talking, magical animals. Predomenantely equines. So things are bound to be ackward. Not only in the difference in sentient species, but culture and way of life. Pros: -I'd now live in a world of endless wonder. The potential for adventure could possibly outweight the ackwardness eventually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magpie 623 November 30, 2012 Share November 30, 2012 (edited) Pros: Big Adventure! Tons of Fun! (The rest of the intro doesn't really relate.) AHPPLES! OH MY CELESTIA THE AHPPLES! I'm sure being a human wouldn't be too bad, they seem to adapt well to other strange creatures. Edited November 30, 2012 by Brosparkles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Winona the Dog 1,984 November 30, 2012 Share November 30, 2012 Con ------------- -The only human (though i wouldnt really be phased that im the only human there) -Cant see my family. -No internet considering Equestria never dvelops it's technology Pros ------------ + I get to meet all my favorite characters + Will proprably be famous for being the only human there + World of Magic is interesting 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starshine 16,334 December 1, 2012 Share December 1, 2012 Say, does anyone here knows what would you do once you're in Equestria? Those apples and cupcakes won't be free forever. *Since it's a parallel universe, there may be a live show or at least a book series in Equestria called My Big Human: Hatred and Violence Are Not Magic. (I doubt it would sell, though.)I would watch the **** out of that show 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8ballgremlin 20 December 8, 2012 Share December 8, 2012 Pros: I'd like to point out the lack of any real crime in Equestria Locals mind their own business Great scenery for golf cons: Snips and Snails are there You can't satify your omnivorous diet without pissing off a few locals. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metatora 37 December 8, 2012 Share December 8, 2012 Pros: -Getting to explore a world brimming with magic. -I'd get the chance to chat with Celestia, Luna and the rest of the ponies. -Might be able to use my knowledge of human technology to make lots of bits. Cons: -Couldn't use any of my electronics. -I would be at a severe disadvantage if I had to fight a powerful magic creature. -The culture barrier might be a problem. -My new, primarily vegetable-based diet would be annoying. -Would never get to see my world ever again. So as much as I would like the chance to explore Equestria, I'm not sure going there on a permanent basis would be worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicolae Carpathia 140 December 8, 2012 Share December 8, 2012 Pros: I would get to leave with Celestia at Canterlot, seeing how i would have no home at the time. I would get to go to the gala. meet the cutie mark crusaders give Luna a hug see the country side Cons: I would be homeless I would be very bored I would have to put up with Trixy! leave in fear of discord breaking free i would miss sweet tea and sodas very much From chaos we all began, and to Chaos we shall all return. For i am Bob the definition of perfect embodiment of all things Chaotic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zygen 6,066 December 8, 2012 Share December 8, 2012 Pros: I'd be in a land full of ponys(And I still kinda hope I could be one myself, if not then scratch that pro.) I'd get to stare at adorable ponys all the time. Pony's are cuddly I like ponys Ponys Cons: You never get to see your family again. They have dangerous creatures in equestria(Like dragons ect.) If your a human it may take a while to get accepted, plus no one to truly relate to. No internet No games No MLP Forums Hard to adjust to it. Overall I don't think I'd want to live in Equestria permanently, i'm to use to this world anyways. So I'd miss alot of things. Plus if I was human being the only human there would be awkward.

Obsidian_Winter 1,159 December 8, 2012 Share December 8, 2012 I'm surprised no one has outright stated the obvious. I mean yes you would be the only human and thus lonely, but specifically, you would have no companionship.....nothing......no partner or mate. Though it would be funny to see one of these people who so hate clopping or shipping end up there and hooking up with a pony....poetic almost ~.^ 2 My past does not define me 'cause My past is not Today Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lomk 20,663 December 8, 2012 Share December 8, 2012 (edited) Pros : 1. You would be able to live among your favorite candy colored ponies! 2. The odds of you being able to do nothing cool like, oh I dunno, fly or use magic, are only 33% 3. That means there's a 33% chance that I could be a Pegasus! (This one and #2 only apply if i were a pony too) 4. It seems like all of the things wrong with the world don't really exist in Equestria. 5. The existence of certain mythological creatures! Let's just hope Gilda was the only bad Griffon. Cons: 1.I saw Rarity making Sweetie Belle pull that heavy cart in the latest episode...does this mean the Celestia hasn't passed any filly labor laws? 2. There is a 33% chance that you won't end up being able to have any special talents like magic or flight. Not saying that being an earth pony would be so bad. It just seems like it'd be no better than being a human. 3. Finally, the existence of certain mythological creatures...We have already seen a Hydra, a Manticore, a Minotaur, a Cockatrice, and some other mythological creatures that, in fantasy, are awesome, but in real life, wouldn't be very nice to deal with...And Gilda...let's hope she doesn't come back. And if she does let's hope Rainbow Dash kicks her [bUY SOME APPLES!]! Edited December 8, 2012 by ThatOneBrony I refuse to let go until you're impressed. I refuse to let go until I'm depressed.

Twixie Shores 2 December 8, 2012 Share December 8, 2012 Let's see Pros: Living in an enchanted land Much lower crime rate than where I currently live Fun ponies to go on adventures with Pegasi to blame for bad weather (If I was a pony) No humans!! Cons: No meat Lack of modern technology (this is worth like three cons for me) It's so hard to decide! You think you're better than the Great and Powerful Trixie? You think you have more magical talent? Well, come on, show Trixie what you've got. Show us all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mortimer 332 December 8, 2012 Share December 8, 2012 I guess living in a fantasy world is great but of course it has it's pros and cons: PROS: -Get to meet the Mane 6 and hopefuly a glance at Celestia. -No cars with really annoying noises. -No pollution. -You get to see to see things that aren't in the real world. CONS!: -You can't help with absolutely no shit! (Seriously, what can you do without magic or without the ability to fly. -Definitely not the same food. -No electricity. -ONLY HUMAN! (Pray God for your social status) -You can't defend yourself against grater evils. Well, i kind of like the idea! Oh Yeah! Da Great Escape!

Shift 4,272 December 8, 2012 Share December 8, 2012 PROS: + Ponies + No Humans + Get to get out of School + World Peace + No Dang Wars + Famous for being ONLY HUMAN! + It's ponies + I can meet Sparkle + Dragons. I love dragons. [This is like 5+ for me, dragons are my favorite thing besides ponies] + Know what i'm good at. CONS: - No Meat - No Modern Technology - Can't See Family - No MLPForums - No Livestreams Get the heck to Equestria for me. Have the courage to think and act on your own. And have the courage to disobey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mycarhasaMoustache 449 December 8, 2012 Share December 8, 2012 Biggest and only downside to living in Equestria is no meat Well we haven't seen any pony eat meat so you have to assume no meat and I love bacon damn it. Pros an actual chance to meet rainbow dash irl would mean more to me then winning the lottery pros and cons of leaving earth pro earth sucks con none Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tdroid 234 December 8, 2012 Share December 8, 2012 I think the largest pro for me would be that they seem to be less exlusive and more inclusive than humans overall, which means I might just get better along with others. Also, Pinkie Pie. 'Nuff said. The largest con for me would be my strong allergies to almost all animals with fur, so unless that is fixed my life will be quite difficult. Reduced breathing caused by prolonged expossure isn't something that can be good for me. I like to do requests. Please, if there is something you want to see me, an amateur, draw for you, just send me a PM with the details and I'll say yay or nay. Most likely yay.

Tall_But_Short_37 233 December 9, 2012 Share December 9, 2012 Go to live in Equestria Raise pigs (since we know they exist there) Build super secret slaughter house that no one but you can ever find Make lots of bacon Don't tell ponies what bacon is made of Ponies fall in love with bacon Sell lots and lots of bacon Become new bacon overlord of Equestria ?????
