The short description says most of it.
I always have a bunch of concepts popping up in my head. Most of them don't last more than a few minutes before i dismiss them as stupid. Some are keepers and might someday evolve into written pieces. Then there are those in between that are either very short or where the ideas stops after the intro and/or concept. This is a collection of a few of the ones I can remember.
Care to explain the joke?
6420698 It's a reference to that famous honey badger-video. That's it.
Honey Badger..... Add Flutters voice a winner
6725090 Yeah, I wonder if anyone can get Andrea Libman to voice over that video as well
"Move, bitch, get out the way."
6837201 Hah! That, too
But Luna is way 80's
Hmmm, I quite liked this las idea but I feel it somehow should be articulated in a bit of a different way.
7289937 If you're talking about Pony People With Pony Names in particular, I was just gonna see how fast I could write a short fic with a single joke. I think it was somewhere around 250 seconds
How would you articulate it?
Well, kudos for that then. I'm a very slow writer and in 250 seconds I can barely put together a half coherent sentence. For my own five sentence story (nothing pony related) I needed about an hour.
As for Pony People With Pony Names, I think I would cut out a few parts to make it flow faster. Currently I think I got the joke before the punchline, which diminished the effect (just to be clear, I still like it). I think you need to be as lean as possible so that reading and comprehension go along at more or less the same rate.
I remember this! I wonder what happened to it. Glad you decided to post it.
Also,

7570005 After I wrote it, I decided to give it another look in the future and see if I could polish it. Then I guess my flagship-story and real life made me shelf this... then I forgot about it
So after I read the latest chapters of your story (which I didn't notice for the longest time since I had turned Mature stories invisible for some reason), the talks about the demiurge (no capital d ) reminded me of this. I polished it a little bit, but after a while I just went, 'ah fuck it. I can barely remember what I was going for anyway,' and posted it.
Oh, perhaps I should add 'Xenophilia: ' to the title?
Gnosticism for dummies? Heh, that's great. Do you have one for the Kabbalah?
7571008
None for that, I'm afraid. Though now I'm going to see if one exists...
7572206 Share if you do. There are some Japanese games that I figure will either make more sense, or less sense, if I get to read one
Nice, atmospheric piece. I thought I felt a certain affinity to Long Road to Friendship.
7573777 Oh, good. Makes sense, considering that's where I got the whole idea from. Atmospheric was what I was going for, which makes me consider it a success. Thank you
What's that song based off of? Dave the Barbarian? He-Man? The Tick? Superman? Duck Tales? I can't tell.
7677969 I'm assuming that you're joking, but I'm gonna tell you anyway
7677980
Thanks. But I wasn't joking. Flash Gordon fell out of popularity before I was born. When it's just a bunch of duns you have to guess what the tempo and beat is. I guessed wrong.
Still a good song though.
7678600 Before I was born as well. and it is a good song.
Hope it was funny, though
The only thing honey badger gives a shit about is Fluttershy's opinion.
7685159 Pretty much, yeah
Hehehee! i should have read these snippets before!
7743699 I'm actually working on a new one right now, and unlike MLAABQ-chapters, I usually finish these in one sitting, so stay tuned
I came.
7743826 You were the horse, weren't you?
should have asked Rarity for help.

7782706 Ah yeah, good thinking. Just imagine Rarity in place of Gabe, I guess... and probably change her line
7784307 I so want a Luna-emoticon...
Beautiful.
7788636 Thank you, and thank Luna... or spank Luna
So... "What if Ponies were like Bonobos rather than Humans?"
Hello, Odin. I see you have Huginn and Muninn with you tonight. :)
That name makes me think of "Angels With Filthy Souls" (The fake gangster movie in Home Alone).
7678600
I only recognized it because that clip was played over a clip with a flasher in AMV Hell 4. (The AMV Hell series are a great way to catch any bits of musical pop culture you may have missed.)
7825680 Don't they fling their feces?
7825709 They caw in greeting
7825714 Seriously though, ponies' names should be very inconvenient at times.
"I'm here about the the poster. 'Bouncer wanted'?"
"Oh, that one. What's your name."
"Wet Noodle."
"... That's an ironic nickname, right?"
oh, my!
7848759 Fun for the whole family, and lodgers
Well, Google Translate's language-guesser does think it's Zulu, but the most sense I could get it to make out of it was "New horses Gittite dad"
7879708 I checked what the Zulu (I think) words in the beginning of Circle Of Life from the Lion King means. First google results said it means "Here comes a lion". Then I tried switching out 'lion' for 'horse', and this is the result
7879717
It's probably Google Translate's fault. I snatched the first line from a lyrics site and Google Translate says it's Zulu but gives "New lion Gittite Baba".
I think the problem is that, since you obviously draw out certain syllables, I wasn't confident enough (that I'd reversed that correctly) to try googling for the original reference.
7879724 Yeah. Anyway, the joke was bad from the beginning
I'm gonna have another one for the chapter tomorrow.
Bad jokes have a long and glorious tradition and should be not scoffed at
7880051 Indeed. Which is why I'm posting more very soon
....... .......
7880849
Yeah....soooo many lost opportunities you killed by making that restriction
7881171 I don't mind killing lost opportunities
There's a story reason for Luna not being able to visit Gabe's dreams. Two things are strange about her dreams, Luna can't visit, and something else
Heh! Rainbow needs to invest in some cloud-soundproofing insulation!
Gabe: "Oh, I'm afraid the only qualified magic carpet mechanic has gone and crawled inside a bottle."
