Dear Princess Celestia,

Today I learned three things.

Dogs grow up, ponies grow up, and when ponies grow up enough, sometimes they go through a very annoying phase called a "midlife crisis". For some ponies, it's more serious than others.

Your faithful subject,
Sweetie Belle

Dear Rarity,

If you're looking for a pony who is completely obsessed with their fillyhood and is currently unable to move past it, you should really talk to Starlight.

Your sister,
Sweetie Belle

FEATHER BANGS LAS PEGASUS CONCERT RUDELY INTERRUPTED

Cleanup efforts are under way in Las Pegasus after a pony in the Manticore Bay hotel began shooting spitballs at concertgoers across the street last Saturday night. Budding pop artist Feather Bangs was forced off stage as approximately 58 ponies were hit with spitballs as they ran for cover.

After determining what floor and room it was coming from, guards were able to breach the room, and the pegasus was forced to fly off to avoid capture. There are currently no suspects, although the investigation is still ongoing.

I'm actually surprised there wasn't a great deal of new padded content for Sweetie Belle generated after "Forever Filly".

And poor Feather Bangs, I guess that pegasus hated his music even more than most ponies do.

Huh, no kidding. I never would've guessed.

... I mean, I get that this is basically the Las Vegas Shooting, but what's the joke?

How it was ponified and made considerably less lethal. I do that often with real world events.

[NobodieZ]

Here's an idea,

Dear Zipporwhill,

So you're worried about your dog and you go to the CMC and NOT the vet or Fluttershy aka the animal expert?
You're an idiot.

Your Common sense.

[F14m3rz]

8517898 Well yeah, but you usually put a joke in there.
In the Orlando Shooting expy, you had a crazy person sterilize everyone (a joke that was done to show how regardless of what one person does, it's ultimately ineffectual in how the country as a whole is affected0.
In the "Me Too" expy, there were so many victims of sexual Twissault that they had to be moved to Ponyville Adjacent (a joke concerning the Me Too campaign with the context of the universe you've created).
But here... you just switch out "bullets" with "spit balls", and "attacker gets put down" with "escapes". There's no real joke done with it.

I thought about Rainbow being the spitballer, but wanted readers to come to their own conclusions.

Hey, Rarity,

Nice job on those discount bin Super Saiyan Rosé and Froppy cosplays. Not! You are going to have to do better than that if you hope to win the cosplay contest at the next Ponyville Comicon. You will have a hard time against Mistress Princess Twilight Sparkle and my cosplay as Jabba the Hutt and Slave Leia. Mistress Princess Twilight Sparkle makes the perfect Jabba the Hutt. Good luck losing to us, bitch!

Signed Mistress Princess Twilight Sparkle's loyal slave and not-so-closeted otaku,
Neko Majin C.

Dear Sweetie Belle,

I can show you something fun that grown-ups do. ;)

Squeekie Belle is long gone it seems.

As somepone living in Las Pegasus Vegas, I find the joke offensively hilarious. That is to say, that night was scary as hay, but the joke is still funny.
Also, #PegasusStrong

8519560 Well yeah; Claire's in college now, which is kind of odd to think about. Also, I just noticed her initials are literally CMC. Take from that what you will.

[StormLuna]

Here is one thing that irks me about the episode, Sweetie Belle is NOT grown up, not even close. She still goes to Cheerilee's school and in episodes after "Forever Filly" she behaves like she is one.
