It's a conspiracy, man! They're feeding us a bunch of lies, man.

-- DELETED SCENE --

"What in the hay is a conspiracy theory?" Apple Bloom questioned as she compared her test to her friends. Between the three of them, it seemed as if she had scored the highest, with a perfect A.

Sweetie Belle shrugged and looked over her test. "I don't know," she piped up as she looked over her answers. "But I don't get why Miss Cheerilee is against me voicing my opinion. I mean, at least I got the answer right!" She noticed Scootaloo's test, and raised an eyebrow. "Hey, how come your test is blank?"

"I, uh..." Scootaloo let out a sigh. "I forgot to study. So I didn't answer any of the questions."

"Why didn't you just guess?" Apple Bloom asked.

Scootaloo shrugged. "I dunno," she admitted. She then flipped her paper over and showed the back of it to her friends. "Do you think Miss Cheerilee liked my drawing?"

"Nah, probably not," Sweetie Belle said. "It looks too much like a dog with whiskers."

"Well, there goes my Cutie Mark in art," Scootaloo sighed.

Don't worry, we often think you're funny too.:twilightsmile:

Oh the Three cmc, sweetie really is nutty, I mean, her sister is an element of harmony and she still doesn't believe in the crystal empire, she's been there! She's kind of losing it.

This made me really laugh, good grief, I liked it, thank you for the read!

I maybe don't get ALL the references, but i sure do appreciate the humor and toils that Cheerilee has to put up with...
-1/pi would read again

Need more of this.


that's twice now Why do you write the best oneshots?

I like the ending, but I think I would've put the name of each filly in before Cheerilee went through the answers. I think it would have been funnier if I knew which filly messed up on what.:twilightsmile:

Overall, worthy of a thumbs up.

I have a story by the same name, so I got really confused when I saw this in the update list :rainbowlaugh:
Anyway, it made me chuckle, so have a thumbs-up and a fave :twilightsmile:

I thought the exact same thing, actually. :rainbowlaugh:
Still just as worthy of the read, nice job, Princess! :yay:

I feel bad for Cherilee, I mean really? xD

The second chapter was only mildly amusing, but the first and third were quite funny. After working on a somewhat sad fic as a nod of sorts, it is comic relief to Cheerilie's struggle.

The struggle truly is real for that pony; it is one thing to teach a class something and not have to grade their papers, but it is another to have to actually evaluate their responses. Their showering of knowledge.

I have had enough teachers to know that sometimes, it takes its toll. She is lucky she did not ask any complex math questions. :rainbowlaugh:

Funny fic though, and I have to agree with the notion that sun butt is a rather strange if not vulgar name for Celestia. Her cutie mark isn't even that far back on her... All hail Sunnyside Up would probably fit better. xD

Well-written, hilarious, and answers the question of who made what, so, awesome! :pinkiehappy:

But, they really are feedin' us a bunch of lies...

Just sayin'.

I thought the picture was nice.
Some glitter and crayon and maybe Scootaloo would get a C+.

Y'know, I'd have just asked Sweetie to cite her sources, and then had a talk with Rarity about letting Infowars run while she's working....

Loved all the sweet refs. Most excellent fic.

Well there's up vote number 100. You earned it.:rainbowlaugh:

:rainbowlaugh: Poor Cheerilee. And Scootaloo. Awesome story, I'm glad I clicked on it!

"well, there goes my Cutie Mark in art."

:rainbowlaugh:

Every now and again you'll see me commenting on storiess. It's my way of getting myself out there. :coolphoto:

Plus, I believe this had been on the home page at some point, and the description got a school guy like myself interested in a jippy. :yay:

The princesses got a grip on the government! They're feeding us a bunch a ponyfeathers!

welcome relief from all the dark fics I have been reading (rainbow factory pegasus device into the depths from the depths creeping darkness et cetera)
also noticed easter eggs but did not know what they were eggs of

Its all just a bunch of ponyfeathers man! Sunbutt is just a monkey in a working changeling costume!!!

So Scootaloo was the one who drew the cat and Sweetie Belle was the one with the conspiracy theories.
Hmm... makes sense:scootangel:
I feel bad for Cheerilee though.:fluttershysad:

4149838 actually, I've noticed a lot of people call her sunbutt

In fanfic, yes, but in the show I have not seen too many references of her as "sun butt" if any at all. That's what I had been referring to.

I wonder if many teachers went through the same experience

Well, that was a nice read.
IGN rating: 12 out of 10 ducks.
Would duck again.
