Con Arty


Don't ever buy tickets to a con artists' convention. Chances are when you get there, no one else will be there...

    On "-body"s and "-pony"s.

    As a being of chaotic nature, I can only have so many pet peeves. But I can tell you that this is certainly one of them.

    Call me Sparkle, but there is a difference between "everyone" and "everybody".

    Everyone = every individual
    EX: Everyone in the class is invited to my slendorifous party!

    Everybody = everyone in a group, as a group.

On "-body"s and "-pony"s. · 2:38am Jan 22nd, 2014

As a being of chaotic nature, I can only have so many pet peeves. But I can tell you that this is certainly one of them.

Call me Sparkle, but there is a difference between "everyone" and "everybody".

Everyone = every individual
EX: Everyone in the class is invited to my slendorifous party!

Everybody = everyone in a group, as a group.
EX: Everybody came to my party!
(This works because in my previous sentence, I identified the invitees as a group.)


Everybody = Everypony in Equestria, as I'm sure most of you know. This refers to a group of ponies, individuals acting as one.

But what irks me is that you bronies also replace "everyone" with "everypony"! We say "everyone" here too, you know. As much as I hate to admit it, ponies are individuals. They are not a collective hive-mind like some reeking communist bug nation I know of. (Hint: I'M TALKING ABOUT THE CHANGELINGS)

Let me demonstrate:
Everyone in this room is now infected with poison joke!

Everypony who was infected went to the hospital.


REMEMBER: Ponies are individuals too! Use that suffix "one"!
