All Hail, Twilight Sparkle, Queen of the Sporkainians! :twilightoops:

At least she didn't become a Ballchinian. There's that at least.

Twilight Sporkle!

Spoiler: Up until now, Twilight's horn looked something like this:

Whether it was the fork or the knife is left as an exercise for the reader.

A delightful feghoot. Thank you for it. Oh, and because someone's going to say it:

SPORKS FOR THE SPORK GOD!
PATENTS FOR THE PATENT THRONE!

*facepalms and laughs* Bravo.

This is quite possibly the most amazing thing that boredom has given us.

This gave me many a good laugh. Well done! If only boredom could bless us all as it has for you.

especially when a ten-pack of plain cotton socks cost half as much and were, in her opinon, just as good.

Seeing as ponies are quadropeds, a ten-pack of socks would be really inconvenient for them. They'd either use it as two sets with two leftovers, or take two additional socks to turn it into three sets.

:facehoof: Why do I notive these things? What the hell is wrong with me?

I... I did not even think of this. Pony math should be in 4-base.

5016873 This is actually a deliberate conspiracy on the part of Equestrian sock-making corporations to make ponies buy two ten-packs so that they would have five sets of four.

I'm going to die of........
Give me some time, I'll think of something
:heart: /)(\

Now that I think about it, maybe a full set doesn't consist of four socks, but five. The fifth sock is supposed to go on the horn during the... more private hours of the day, when a unicorn needs some... relaxation, to release herself from the stress of wearing socks all day.:twilightblush:

5017091 But what about Pegasi and Earth Ponies? It still doesn't work out even. This is obviously a sign how Equestrian society is biased in favor of Unicorns! Stupid Unicorns get all the good stuff...

A bunch of mediocre jokes strung together with a cheap pun at the end. :trixieshiftleft:

It's perfect! :trollestia:

5016980 Make it an eight pack, then call it a day.

Also...

I promise you, I spork the truth.

You wrote this entire fic just to set up that line, didn't you?

“In my day, we had only two instruments, the flew-flewber and the tah-tinker, and dagnabit we liked it.”

Stop saying things that sound like they came from a Doctor Seuss book.

You know, I noticed that myself. I assumed that it meant ten sets of socks, which only emphasized how ridiculously expensive the hornsock was.

I definitely have to wonder how frequently ponies get banned and unbanned from the Boutique. Seems like it could be pretty common for certain suspects.

I think "mediocre" is being generous. :facehoof:

5016854
Hooray!


5017454 5017450 5017452 5017449
if it helps, just think of this as the literary equivalent to idle doodling.

5017787
I imagine it's fairly common.
*Gets thrown out.
:twilightangry2: Well-well... I think plaid looks really pretty!
:raritystarry: I will murder you in your sleep, Twilight Sparkle!

"Did ya bring us some milk?":moustache:
:facehoof: "I forgot sorry spike"
:moustache: "Twilight?"
:twilightblush: "WHAT SPIKE?"
:moustache: "Why do hot dogs come in a pack of ten and Hot dog Buns come in a pack of eight?"
:twilightangry2: "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
:duck:"Sporks ? Spikey how uncouth!" :moustache:"Yea that's totaly messed up"

That cover art is to dine for!:raritywink::rainbowlaugh::pinkiehappy::ajbemused::twilightsheepish::yay:

“Why, Twilight. That’s simply ridiculous. I promise you, I spork the truth.”

I am of the belief that you wrote this entire story just so that you could set up Discord to tell this joke.

I am in no way disappointed.

I swear, as I read this, I could hear the character's voices in my head. Dialogue: spot on.

5019692

I think you mean: spork.

Confession time. I did not write the story for the last line. I wrote it because Discord's story about the Spork God wandered into my head and wouldn't leave. Everything else is just window dressing.

5017560 I think Discord might have escaped from a Dr. Seuss book.

5020502 Ehh, okay then. Either way, it is still pretty funny.

that is a 100 percent original CG comment. feel free to quote me.

Twilight Sparkle: Princess of Sporks :pinkiecrazy:

This one really spork to me, even though Twilight was kinda a poor spork. It's safe to say your spork of creativity definitely payed off.

5026168

I'm glad it was interesting enough to spork your fancy.

The things I see when I open this site...

Twilight Sporkle is best cutlery.

One dark and stormy night, after the particularly spectacular failure with a self-immolating fire extinguisher.

Sentence fragment.

Discord closed the book shut, looking mildly offended. “Why, Twilight. That’s simply ridiculous. I promise you, I spork the truth.”

This story really "spork" to me on several levels. :facehoof:

The power of sporks compell you!
