Memento Mori doesn't mean you should just lie down and wait to die. Rather, live each moment like it could be your last, because you never know which breath will be the final one.

One morning, something strange happens in Ponyville. For some odd reason, lemons have appeared on the doorsteps of every house in Ponyville. But, as the old adage goes, when life gives you lemons, make lemonade. Or something like that.

"Curse you, life! I didn't want any lemons! What am I supposed to do with these? Make lemonade? No! I'm not making lemonade! Do you know who I am? I am Discord, Master of Chaos! And you know what? Now that you've made me angry, I'm gonna burn your house down with these lemons! I'm going to make these explosive lemons and burn your house down!" He threw the lemons into a portal on the wall.

:heart::raritystarry:I love you.:raritystarry::heart:

4996924 I claim success then. The love of a moon and the approval of the most powerful Pokémon must mean I did something right.:scootangel:

This is my jam.
My zesty, zesty jam.

:rainbowlaugh::rainbowlaugh:Gold! Laughed at Discord's part the most!:rainbowlaugh::rainbowlaugh:

Cave Johnson, best use for lemons ever.

When God gives you lemons, you find a new god!

4998431 Funny you should mention that. That very rant is what indirectly led to me writing this story. Let me explain.

I'm a sophomore in high school, and on Thursday I auditioned for my school's fall play. The monologue I used was that rant. That got me thinking, 'what if I wrote a story about everypony in Ponyville getting lemons?' Then this happened.:rainbowlaugh:

I was already laughing halfway through the story description. I can't even finish this story because I'm laughing so hard and my vision is obstructed by tears. For some reason this is like the funniest thing I've ever read. I'm not even joking.

You...you are being followed now.

4998585 So what section were you on when your laughter grew out of control?:rainbowlaugh:

Granny Smith looked in horror at what was sitting on front step of the Apple family home. A pile of lemons sat on the porch, mocking Granny by their mere presence on the farm. "That dagnabbit Lemon family! They've been trying to get this land since I was a little filly. But they won't be taking it! Not today!"

:rainbowlaugh:

But I'm currently rereading it. I think I can make it this time...

EDIT: Finally finished it. Have every last one of my internets. xD

4998873 You've seen how Twilight can get when something doesn't go according to plan. Also, Pinkie is Pinkie. 'Nuff said.:pinkiehappy:

Make lemon squares.

I thought of Mr. Johnson the instant I read the title. I am so happy you made Discord use that line.

Realizing that spime wouldn't be much help

Spike

Otherwise fantastic. Expect your review shortly. :twilightsmile:

when life gives you lemons, you make grape juice and sit back while the world wonders how you did it.
But with Pinkie? the reason is that she's Pinkie Pie.

One of the slice of life-yist slice of lifes I've ever seen. Have a ribbon:

"Curse you, life! I didn't want any lemons! What am I supposed to do with these? Make lemonade? No! I'm not making lemonade! Do you know who I am? I am Discord, Master of Chaos!  And you know what? Now that you've made me angry, I'm gonna burn your house down with these lemons! I'm going to make these explosive lemons and burn your house down!"

I swear to God, I swear to God if I ever meet John De Lancie , I will freaking pay him to read these lines!

Also, was the portal orange or blue?

That was possibly one of the cutest little stories I've ever read, I really liked the Portal 2 reference, and the fact that Discord was making the reference! Great story, thank you for writing!:twilightsmile:

Reviewed story for the goodfic bin, and I'm accepting it into the group.

Review is here.

I think it was Applejack's final comments that decided this was one I was going to upvote. Very refreshing! This reads like an older story than it actually is, say 2012 vintage, but that's not a complaint -- I'd like there to be more of those around.

This is still an absolute gem.
You're a credit to lemons everywhere.

But... Grape juice isn't made from lemons.
It's made from purple.
