How did Equestrian technology end up the way it is. DJ Pon 3 has an epic bass system but the princess reads by candlelight, what's up with that?

Jerry never put much thought into it, its a cartoon after all. Those ponies aren't real. Are they?

When a pony casts a powerful ancient spell, he's forced to confront both realities.

With his father's trusty jeep and the help of some extremely-long laid out plans. He just may set things on track. Or make things worse...

So far this story has been pretty good. The premise is interesting and i am curious to see where it is going. :twilightsmile:

I appreciate it. I don't always proof read as well as I should and punctuation and grammar are not my strong points.

Oil shouldn’t be too much of a problem to find. The train that goes through the town has moving parts; which need lubricant in order to keep moving. That should be a good place to start looking.

I hadn't even thought of that. I don't know much about steam engines, but I think they use more of a grease. I'll have to do a little research before I cross that bridge. Thanks for the idea.

Predestination Paradox established. Now we just wait for his future to catch up to their past.

The most heroic weed binge in literary history...

Will somepony just give him a kick into the timestream and have him start closing all these predestination paradoxes BEFORE this reaches a state of temporal flux that will require more than one Doctor to fix?

No, they're down to earth. Pinkie's the physics shattering exception.

You have a point. I just don't think I'd be so inclined to agree immediately after jumping scenes in real life. When it comes down to it, she's down to earth in her own way. It just defies explanation.

Finding your own gravestone? That's always a bad trip.

Predestination Paradox where you know the outcome is likely your demise? Very bad.

A truly interesting look into family history. It’s funny, I initially started reading this story cause there is a Jeep in it. It has actually turned out pretty good.

you need an editor and go back through all these chapters. the bad grammar, it burns.

9109407
I know. But my editor is busy. He hasn't gotten to it in weeks. I'm trying but I just suck at it.

9109481
Just went threw everything released. I hope I caught them all. I want people to enjoy my story, not cringe at my bad typing.

Well this is getting all kinds of twisted. Gonna need a diagram pretty soon.

You Never wax a jeep thats blasfemy!

9135281
I would normally agree. However, this was an antique family heirloom. Not a machine still used on the trails. Jerry wouldn't want to risk breaking down.

Ah, so that's how he did it. Clever.

slamming on the breaks without the clutch

Brakes. You stop an automobile using brakes.

Breaks are what bones have if someone doesn't hit their brakes...

9143561
Didn't catch that one. That's a good way to remember the difference.

Really good so far. Only thing I think would need fixing is writing “through” instead of “threw” and “though” instead of “tho”.

9155553
Thanks, this story has kept me grounded through some real bs in my personal life. Its good to hear I'm doing well. Especially from someone that's been reading for a while.

Damn, first time I saw a Stoner!Twilight.......Makes me want to see if there is any more stories like that :pinkiehappy:

You keep using the word 'threw' when you mean 'through'.

The first you use when someone has thrown something. 'He threw a ball.'
The second you use when someone goes through something, 'He went through a tunnel.'

It's really distracting from an otherwise good story.

"Didn't Celestia lead them here tho?" I asked.

Ugh. I have to say something about this. 'Tho' is not a word. Thevword you are looking for is 'though'

She looked at me threw her claws.

This as well. 'Threw' is the past tense of 'throw'.
'Through' is the word you're looking for.
Ex. "Look through the telescope and tell me what you see."

You're old man, Jeremy Blade

That's the wrong your. You're is a contraction of 'you' and 'are'.
Your is the word that goes here. It shows possession. If something belongs to you, such as a relation of, I don't know, father and son, that man is your father.

The title of the book was 'Healing Injured Pegasai, Everything you need to know to keep a flyer in fighting form. By Sculptured Stone.'

Lose the second a in "Pegasai".

"Whatever," Rainbow scoffed, "that was just beginners luck. Let's just go strait to best out of ten while we have the time."

*straight

Don't forget him using 'tho' instead of 'though'.

It's an ongoing process. I'm embarrassed to admit I wasn't even aware I was misspelling though and through until I had already written this far. Thanks for the comments they will certainly help weed them out.

I certainly can't come up with a better reason to get horrendously baked.

"That's awesome," I said. I was happy to take my mind off how to open an armored door with a knife. I had to figure it out, but I had only seen this door for a second in a vision. Thinking too hard wasn't going to help.

The door with a knife part is easy. Use the knife with a piece of flint and light a stick of dynamite with it.

Spelling errors are kind of bad but still readable.

What sticks out as weird to me is that there is a human there and they are stuck on wondering what a Jeep is doing there instead of the human.

A vehicle they know other humans drive... Unless he just looks that different?

9232261
Equestria is filled with many odd creatures, but has little to no concept of non magical energy. A motorized vehicle a non-unicorn could drive would stand out. That's my take anyway. i could be wrong.

I never put much thought into it

It shows. With grammar like this, I gotta ask: Who is your ESL instructor and tell me you're not paying them.

Nobody said you had to read it. I think there is plenty of warnings in my comment section for grammar Nazi's.
