Brace Yourself: Butthurt Neckbeards Are Coming · 4:03pm Apr 25th, 2015

So, yeah, new ep was hilarious, but even while watching, I can already hear the cries of OoC for Dash, how she wasn't punished, and how "Ugh, this season is just the worst!!!"

FFS, people, shut the fuck up and enjoy the cute ponies.

I'm waiting for the Scootadad fics

You can't help but feel for Dash.:fluttercry:

That Who's on First routine though. That was great! Caught me surprise.

3015125 Where does Scoot's dad come into the episode?

this ep scored 5/10 for me.
Now... Castle, Sweet Castle scored 100,000/10 :rainbowwild:

3015139 Right around the end, with the ice hockey.

This was my fav episode so far. Mainly because of how clever they handled this situation. This could easily be argued that the episode is about dealing with death. It goes through the 5 stages: Denial, Anger, Bargaining, Sadness, and Acceptance.

To equate that to hibernation is just genius in my opinion. My fav episode of the season so far!

(As for butthurt bronies saying she wasn't punished, look at how distraught she is in the bedroom with tank. I'd say she's punished enough.)

3015158 *listens to the sound of a million Orphanloo writers scream in agony as their headcanon dies*

Great episode in my book, they handled a complex issue well without making it a "very special episode" where, I dunno, Granny Smith dies or something.

But most importantly, Spike has his own room! Spike has his own room!!

3015182 Eeyup, most likely that'll happen.

You mean the episode sucked because Rainbow was adorable, angry at losing a friend, sung an amazing song, acted in character to vent her anger, and realized she had gone too far? You know, saying she was sorry about doing all of this like five times because her friend and love for that friend meant that much to her?

How dare she! How dare she be impulsive when it comes to love! The fluffy bitch!

Oh yeah, there's a new episode today...
Huh, gotta find a way to watch that.

UGH! How dare she feel emotions at the prospect of not being able to hang out with her little buddy for the better part of three months! SO OOC!

People just hate amazing things. And this episode was an amazing thing.

3015314 [Insert hatred of your enjoyment of an amazing thing here because edgy]

Best bad episode ever.

Seriously, there was too many good bits in it to actually hate it... But Dash went eco-terrorist on CLOUDSDALE. You know, her home town and the city that Discord convinced her was more important than all of Equestria.

Destroyed all the hard work she and her fellow pegasi went through during hurricane Fluttershy to supply said water, dumped like half of the ponyville reservoir on the town itself, blew up big time on her friends like a petulant 5 year old (although I had to laugh that none of her friends cried when she did but the second Fluttershy started... And AJ... AJ)

Lets not forget that she herself is a weather pony and would probably know better the consequences of not only her actions but how dangerous it was to mess around with that shit.

I'm trying, I really am. But my brain keeps picking away at things like why Fluttershy never mentioned the hibernation thing when Dash first got Tank, how the timeline is supposed to work if this is Dash's first winter with Tank, the fact that the tortoise didn't actually die...

It's like a scab. I know I shouldn't pick at it, but it's so much fun.

3015194 Yeah... I even wrote an Orphanloo fic, but she was adopted by Derpy at the end, so it was a happy ending :pinkiehappy:
It would be nice to see a show focused on Scootaloo's family. Give us writers something canon to work with

3015490 She blew up a little bit when she asked Spike to help her when she told Fluttershy she was going to get a second opinion from a "reptile expert".

They folded into a "Who's on First" joke in there too, which I thought was cute.

3015125 I KNEW I wasn't the only one who'd spot him.

3015182
yes good

I desire this immensely

Haven't seen it. Or any of the episodes. I see little snippets because it's impossible unless I stop using the internet for the duration of the season, but I avoid the big episode recaps. So thanks for not posting big episode recaps this time.

The fandom turns into a circus of overanalysis, overreaction, and meme-production whenever a new season pops up. I'm going to try to recapture some of the season 1 experience. When all the hoopla has come and gone, gonna quietly marathon the entire season.

I make it a personal mission to ignore those analysis gurus on Youtube.

Is that right for me to do so?

I don't know but I'm going to do it anyway.

3017368 I don't even read/watch Game of Thrones, and I picked up on it!

I also got the sense there will be many who will not like this episode because of how Rainbow Dash was going on, but I thought it was funny. I go into why in my own review blog.

Have to admit, I wasn't sold on the episode until I saw a post mentioning that the episode could very easily be a pony-wrapped "death of a loved one" story. Watching it again with that in mind made Dash's many reactions seem more proportionate to what's happening
