Oh my. No No NONONONO!
Twilight, whatever you do, do not click on page number 100. Everything will eventually lead to porn.
This is the second story of 'equestria and the internet' I have seen. But this one shows promise too.
The Internet? Please tell me Rarity warned her about the dark side of the Internet.
Anyways, I'm enjoying this story so far. I'll follow it.
I can't wait when she visits the 4chan site! ![]()

going to be very lulz ![]()
I have a feeling shes feather going to be a very naughty mare or end up as a facebook zombie like the rest of us![]()
I wanna make this clear right now. This is not going to turn into a clopfic. Read the rating. Everyone. As in everyone. So we're not going to be treated to a scene of Twi clopping off to pron or anything like that.
Everyone got that? We good? Good.
On that note, I'm also writing a clopfic. It'll be out as soon as I work up the motivation to actually write a chapter 2.
"Everything the light touches, is yours to explore, Twilight.""What's that dark spot over there?"
"That is 4-chan. We do not go there."
This is going south in a hurry. Eta? 2 chapters, just because I'm generous.
Frustrations I can sympathize with! But poor Twi still has so much more to learn, what horror shall she run into next?
And how will she be able to handle trolling, flaming, and the overwhelming immaturity of internet users?! Only time will tell!
Yup, relaxing. Nothing else can go wrong.
Oh? What's Enciclopedia Dramatica?
Websites and their effects on Twi:
Wikipedia: Becomes brand new mass editor
4chan: Total mental meltdown
Lolcatz: unsure, might nitpick at usage of grammer, offset by kitties
FiMfiction: What the... Existencial crisis
Creepypasta: Lost interest in star gazing and all night-time activities. Including sleep.
Anyways, I laughed at "I got the internet"
What about when she discovers browser games? Dear Heavens, I think she might become addicted!
I'm guessing in five minutes she's gonna fall for the old "you are our one millionth visitor! Click here for your free virus" trap.
>>659063 That too, good night. When I started playing them my parents had to pry me off the computer with a freaking crowbar. Then hide the computer so I couldn't get back on.
I am much better now. Mainly cause I am too busy to waste time playing MMORPG's all day long. *Sighs* I miss childhood. ![]()
Twilight is going to do an internet. Where's that can of Spam when you need it?! Good story.
How many e-mails did Twilight get.
It's over 9000!!!
Over 9,000 emails? Twilight sure works fast. It's taken me months just to get up to 6,000!
Twilight should feel good about getting so much spam. Makes me feel important.
Great stuff so far!
I wonder what sorts of meme exist in Equestria? I shudder to think!
- Trololo!
I love the Rarity just casually walked over to the contractors and trolled them into lowering their price. No time was spent on it, this is just a thing that Rarity does.
Problem?
Awesome! Love the characterization and how you surreptitiously avoid turning this into what we all know we're expecting. Definitely excited to see the next part. Just one possible, very minor, nitpick; it reads "underhanded" when Rarity is talking about spam. Dunno if you wanted to keep that or make it underhoofed (or underhooved). Regardless, loving the story! Please keep writing, I'll keep reading!
So . . .when does Rarity introduce Twilight to the Rules of teh Interwebs?
... So what happens when she learns of youtube, then 'My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic', then bronies, then fanfictions, then cupcakes... Oh dear Molestia... It seems as though Twilight is in serious trouble... ![]()
The only issue I had with this was that Twigt seemed a little childish, what with the whining and all. That seems more Pinkie or Rarity or CCC territory. Other than that, an interesting little fic that has this far kept my interest. As such...
An upvote and a favourite for you!
Sincerely,
ChrisTheCat
Oh dear Celestia, Twilight's gonna discover porn! And when that happens...![]()
Well as long as she's never going to use Internet Explorer......No pony should ever suffer the burden of Internet Explorer.
Also, this is going to be fun. I shall wait eagerly. *Sits down by computer*
The internet can be a dark place, full of evil things! Don't do it Twi! No, don't touch that 'Enter' button! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
I want to end the rumors now. Yes, there are plans in the future for a chapter called "Twilight Discovers Rule 34" and no, there will be no clop. How will Twilight discover porn and not start clopping? Well, I guess we'll just have to wait and see.
Due to the overwhelming success of my other fic, and the almost constant stream of demand for the next installment on said fic, I will be placing this fic on hiatus to work on Fun With Changelings to a greater degree. There still may be updates. Just don't expect them to come very quickly.
an hour for over 9000!! it takes me at least 2-3 weeks to get to 1000 O_O
A Hotmail account? There's no chance she's going to avoid any spam.
