Nobody understands the internet. Not you, not I, not the horses living on another planet billions of years in the future, not your dog.

I've often thought future historians would reconstruct our society based on our comic books. Turns out it will probably be the abundance of fetish porn that defines us. Great job.

That is why so many people's mothers throw away their comic books. They don't want historians to judge
themus all by Batman or worse yet the Joker.11250439
Reminds me of a quote from the movie "Mission to Mars,"
"Humans differ from chimpanzees by three chromosomes, yet those three chromosomes give us Einstein, Mozart..."
"... Jack the Ripper."
Hilariously horrifying, though it seems a mention of "fingertips" by a pony slipped through editing. Still a brilliant example of not so much flinging a light into the future as tripping while hauling burning garbage. Thank you for it and best of luck in the judging.
Uh .. what ?! Tilts head
ooh, love this idea! of the human world being a long-dead extraterrestrial civilization in the pony universe
dang sucks to be Frank Drake
well, i'm glad something survived us! and it's fun that ponies have three tribes and Earth has three species!
ooh, that is a cool metaphor, likening the Internet to a tamed beast that outlives us
and of course!
dang, they must have gotten very little information out of the Tube to never have figured out what we look like, all we do is depict ourselves! though i guess if they're throwing away visual information it's more believable
hehehe, love this! i do find it annoying that alien theorizers so often assume that intelligent alien species must have a body plan that is humanoid because of blah blah, but it's cute when ponies do it
aww, nice to see Tatzls be a point of reference for weird anatomy
well depending on the source of the texts i can see why they might hypothesize this...
it is heartwarming to know that the black and red OC is immortalized forever like this
so true!
well that was an amusing adventure in speculative xenobiology based on very, very fragmentary data! really makes you think about the anthropocentric assumptions that we ourselves make about such things. though i wish that the "something" that had stayed were a piece of human culture closer to the bits that i personally find the most valuable, such as one of my favorite fimfics, at the very least there is a fun charm in the idea of an alien species trying to decode the hot garbage that is our cultural detritus, and i even feel a bit of pride in that because it's our hot garbage, Celestia dammit!
fun stuff, thank you for it!

Realistically, the internet outlasting us would only result in them digging up a whole bunch of unusable code, but realism is expendable on fimfic. This story stemmed entirely from the vibes of a late night happenstance that led to me stumbling across a massive pastebin full of fluffy pony stories. It's so weird to me to think of all the fiction that exists out there I'll never stumble across, written completely anonymously for no reward. I'd like to think itll get its day eventually.
Hello! Have a review. In truth I wasn't quite the right audience for this (not a big sci-fi ponyfic fan, not much of a one for internet meme jokes) so it didn't quite grab me. As I say, though, I could see others absolutely crying with laughter at this -- the comments here certainly suggest I'm in the minority. Well done on the honourable mention!
