It's a known fact that holding a shell to your ear will let you hear the ocean. So why does Pinkie's make everpony else hear "ouch?"

Submitted for The Competitive Writers' Guild April contest. The theme was "the sea."

Pinkie and Crabby x3 very nice little story, as always :)

Oh so very punny!

lol
funny this is

this got a good chuckle outta me.

I will be posting the official review shortly... but I just wanted to note that, I fully believe the only reason you did this story is for that pun at the end. And let me say, It worked! haha

Official Review: "Pinkies Magic Pinching Shell Of Pain!

Description: "Pinkie has a shell. And she wants EVERYPONY to hear the magic of the ocean."

Pinkie has a shell... and no one is listening to Fluttershy... sigh

7/10 Official Contest Score/ For Writing Quality And Originality: Very well written, crisp and clean and chock full of dialog! Funny and engaging this short stays true to the members of the cast that are in it, with the exception of Rainbow Dash, who seems a bit more hostile to Pinkie Pie directly, then she usually is. That said, Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy, and Twilight are spot on, which in and of its self is a feat to be admired! This one shot is extremely funny and punny! Very unique, this short deserves to be read. However while funny and engaging, the short does not provide a lot of detail when it comes to the setting which is more a symptom of One Shot Shorts then the authors writing ability's. I would love to see a full story come out of this!

4/5 For Family Friendliness: Due to some mild 'place holder' language, i would suggest this short to people of almost all ages! However, not the shows traditional audience, the extremely young. This funny slice of life fic would be perfect for almost any fan of MLP. I hope to see more!

Comment: I loved this story so much! Poor pinkie just doesn't get why people are being complete crabs!

I agree with the commenter above who suggested this for young fans. It might actually work as one of those short illustrated books they make for kids, but for me, what was going on was pretty obvious, and that final joke was not worth it. >.<
