Why:

  • MitchH writes Trixie with all the apparent effortlessness of a pro and it’s funnier than my best attempts to date.
  • I participated in coining the initial idea, so that’s another one for the “It’s all Oliver’s fault, that jerk” collection.
  • I have a fair idea of where this is going and I’m pretty sure you won’t be disappointed.

Seriously, if this doesn’t get featured, I don’t know what the hell do you people want. :pinkiesmile:
