After a successful show, Vinyl walks home and finds an mp3 player on the ground with some strange music in it. Curious, she plugs the player into her speakers.
Suffice to say...this won't end well.
(Rated Teen for swearing)

Small world, aint it?
The library part was the best part, hands down.
Then just wait until she hears Excision - triple x ft. Messinian
the yes oh my gosh heard in the song (yes, despite popular belief it is gosh) is actually a reference to a video called 7.00 seconds
Heh, this story was a trip. I got a couple laughs out of it, so I was glad I paid the (nonexistant) price of admission. It's obvious you wrote this story for fun more than anything else, so I won't bother to critique the writing itself, which is passable but breaks quite a few rules.
I also like the idea of a multimedia story like this, which provides the reader with something extra to establish context for what happens in the story. Again, it breaks a few rules, but sometimes rules are meant to be broken.
SKY RIM JOKE!

Trust me dude, I read over that section about 3 times and laughed my ass off

Thanks, that's nice to know.
Do you know where I could find these rules? I'd love to improve even if the writing piece isn't an assignment.
Honestly, I've never heard of writing rules before o.o"

Death metal? Nah, Vinyl ain't that kinda girl/mare o.o"

Lol, they are largely unwritten rules, but if you read a lot of published books or hang around with serious writing types, you pick them up. For instance, its generally frowned upon to speak directly to your reader if you are narrating in the third person. It takes the reader out of the story, and you usually want them immersed. The narrator can still have a distinct voice, and even act as an extension of the main characters's thoughts; it just shouldn't be so obviously breaking the fourth wall.
That's not to say authors don't ever do that, though, but there are some legitimate reasons that most don't. It's still a personal decision by the authors themselves, in the end. I just felt that quite a bit of the narration near the second half of the story felt out of place in comparison to how the story began. That could just be me, though.
Wut? CELESTIA GET THE HELL OUT FROM UNDER MY GODDAMN BED UNLESS YOU PONY UP A BLOODY RENT CHECK RIGHT THE HELL NOW!

Ah. Small world indeed, I guess :)

Okay, that's good to know :D Thanks.
*Puts Nerd Glasses on*
Time to go read more books.

Okay so first of all, I really don't know anything about metal/death metal so sorry. (Seriously, not trying to be sarcastic)
But that is kinda interesting for another fiction...though I'd think that would be more dark. I can't write dark stuff and I'm not going to steal your concept so...If you want to write it by all means, go ahead :D
Thanks for reading my story.

I'm fine with it when a character does it and it fits in with the tone of the writing. But in general, the narration shouldn't directly reference the viewer. Though I used to have a friend who did that all the time, and he did it in such an interesting and funny way that it worked perfectly. Sometimes playing fast and loose with the rules is a good way to get a laugh, and I don't usually fault writers for it.
Didn't take long to read, but was amusing. Not the best fic, but it's freaking hilarious that she could have caused so much damage with a sound system.
Skrillex sucks. It's all wubwubwublllzz.
But you're not half bad as a writer.
I love Skrillex so i think im gonna enjoy this
279368
I'm not obsessed with Skrillex but this story and Vinyl kept bucking me in the head after I got into FiM
Seriously, everytime I hear Ruffneck Bass I always imagine Vinyl doing this
Oh and thanks for your input.
279246
Thanks.
But think about it....12 giant subwoofers pumped to the max. You'd be surprised as to how she's not deaf o.o" (Actually she had her headphones on with the volume at a normal level but she acidentally flipped on the speakers because she was drunk)
Oh, this is just awesome.
Are you ready for the Ruffneck Bass now?
Ponies... check
Dubstep... Check
Good story... check
Vinyl scratch.. check
Everything has now reached a whole new level
YESH OH MY GOD!!!

I was just jerking your chain. I like Skrillex's Reptile song, but I'm ambivalent towards dubstep in general.

cool story bro. thanks for the input
And then came First of the Year. And then so did I.
I came home from work and checked my "Tracked" list. No new updates. I thought, "Oh, you've got to be kidding me." Immediately after this thought crossed my mind, I spotted the title of this story at the top of the page, as if replying to my comment. Comedic timing doesn't get much better than that.
As for the story itself, it was... certainly worthy of the Comedy and Random tags.
Why must everybrony be ridiculous fans of Skrillex?
The reference to baseballs was amusing, Pinkie found dead baking cupcakes wasn't the other reference was it?
Frickin' terrible. A string of parodied cliches and a handful of dry, lifeless paragraphs do not a story make, much less a GOOD story.

okay. thanks for your input. i'll try to think of something better next time i write a fic.

It would be easier (to cheat) if you actually had your favorite stories in your favorites list...assuming they are both on this site. I think think I read about Luna's poor encounter with baseballs on this site...

Everything's in my tracking...
I honestly did not know how to favorite until two seconds ago.

Always fun to learn something new, and now I have a short list of new things to read because of it. Though I have to wonder how I missed Eternal when I am certain that I have read some of the early comments for it before...
