Sunset Shimmer, Fluttershy, and Trixie were diligently working on making decorations for the Spring Fling. Not far away, Snips and Snails were inflating balloons.
"Hey Snips, who was that girl I saw you with last night?" Snails asked. "She's a real cutie."
"Heh, yeah, that's my new girlfriend. She's Neighponese. I think her family just moved here or something? She goes to a different school."
"You take your Neighponese girlfriend out for Korean food?"
"Yeah, she's always talkin' about kimchi, so I figure she must really be into it."
Fluttershy blinked. So did Trixie. Trixie turned to the boys and called out, "Sorry, you said she talks about kimchi a lot...when exactly does this come up?"
"Huh?" Snips asked. "Oh, uh..." He coughed. "Mostly when we're, uh, y'know...doin' it an' stuff."
"Who-hoa, Snips, you're gettin' some?" Snails chuckled. "Sweet!"
"Way more than I needed to know," Sunset muttered, even as Fluttershy's nose crinkled. Trixie, however, narrowed her eyes thoughtfully.
"And...again, none of my business, but..." Trixie pierced Snips with an intense gaze. "This 'girlfriend'...what exactly do you do together besides eating Korean food and, ahem, bedroom activities?"
"Mostly shopping," Snips said. "She likes fancy stuff. I buy her nice things, it seems to make her happy..."
Fluttershy looked away uncomfortably.
"As Trixie suspected," Trixie said quietly. She shook her head and turned back to her work.
"I feel bad for him," Fluttershy whispered.
"I know, right?" Trixie replied, covering a snicker. "But I guess what he doesn't know won't hurt him...maybe..."
Sunset frowned. "What am I missing here? Besides Snips getting taken by a gold digger?"
Fluttershy and Trixie exchanged a glance. "W-well," Fluttershy said, "Snips' girlfriend...isn't really interested in kimchi. At all."
"Lucky for her, Snips is too stupid to bother to learn Neighponese," Trixie added with a smirk.

As any high school student can tell you, the middle of April is a painful, torturous time. With over a month of school left to go, the weather turning warm, allergies running rampant, and no holiday breaks left to end the monotony, each day drags on into the next, each week an eternity until the sweet release of summer.
Kids get bored. Some kids, when bored, become lethargic.
Some kids, when bored, get silly.
Some kids, when bored silly, get weird.
So it was that on a late April day, Pinkie Pie snuck up behind her friend Rainbow Dash in the hallway during the break between classes. "Psst. Hey, Rainbow Dash!"
Rainbow turned her head, not breaking stride. "Yeah?"
Pinkie leaned in close. In a rushed, frantic whisper, she declared:
"PUSSY FARTS!"
She then sped off down the hall, leaving Rainbow to stop short, blinking. "...huh?"
After a minute, Rainbow shook her head and kept going.
Applejack was right outside the door to her dreaded Physics class when Pinkie Pie sidled up to her, put her lips next to her ear, whispered "PUSSY FARTS!", and sidled away.
Applejack stared in the direction of the departing pink mass, chuckled, and headed for her desk.
Sunset Shimmer and Twilight Sparkle were working together in the library during study hall when Pinkie Pie dropped out of a ceiling vent, dangling from a grappling hook. As she dropped between their heads, she whispered, "Pussssyyyyyy faaaaaaaaaaaarts."
Then she zipped back up into the ductwork before Miss Cheerilee caught her.
Sunset and Twilight looked at each other in confusion, then up at the ceiling. Shrugging, they went back to their work.
In the Home Ec room, Rarity and two classmates were hard at work on a sewing exercise which, for Rarity, was beyond elementary. Without warning, Pinkie Pie leaned in through the nearest window. "Psst! Rarity!" Once she had Rarity's attention, she whisper-shouted, "Pussy farts!" She then disappeared as quickly as she had appeared.
Rarity blinked repeatedly, accidentally pricking herself with her needle.
"Your friend is weird," Lavender Lace said.
"Yes," Rarity said dryly. "Quite weird."
During afternoon break, Fluttershy was buying a snack from the vending machine when Pinkie slipped out from behind it, leaning into her face with a manic grin. "PUSSY FARTS, FLUTTERSHY!"
Fluttershy yelped, jumping back; after a moment, she blinked, her hand halfway to the coin slot. "Um. H-hi, Pinkie Pie. Umm...pussy farts to you too?"
Pinkie slipped away. Fluttershy watched her go. "Goodness," she said.
Then, as her candy bar dropped into the slot, she started to giggle.
* * * * *
The Rainbooms were hanging out at Twilight Sparkle's house. It was the weekend, and Velvet asked the girls to help move some of Shining Armor's old stuff to the attic for storage. Most of what they were hauling around was comic books and Ogres and Oubliettes stuff from his high school days. During a break, Rainbow Dash got bored and started going through some of the stuff.
While flipping through an old O&O session notebook, Rainbow suddenly let out a harsh bray of laughter. "Oh...oh my god!" She held up the notebook and read aloud, "'When the party arrived at Nut Shaven'... NUT SHAVEN?!" She tossed the book aside and curled in on herself, snickering wildly.
Twilight frowned. "What--let me see--" She picked up the notebook and thumbed through it, frowning. "Umm...I think that's supposed to be 'Nuts Haven'," she pronounced deliberately.
"Let me see?" Sunset took the notebook from Twilight and looked at it. She smirked. "Well yeah, it's obviously Nuts Haven, but really. What was your brother thinking when he decided to name the village in his campaign Nutshaven?"
Twilight rolled her eyes. "Well, my brother is kind of lame," she said with a giggle.
Giving locations and characters in your RPG campaign original names can be hard. You end up using puns or naming them after stuff in the room. Here in the eastern us we have a snack chip brand, Synder of Berlin, so yea my one DM named a noble Synder Berlin cause a bag of chips was near by at the time.
nice work.
Okay can you explain this? The context makes it sound like she's saying he has a small dick. I know a lot of terms, some slang, and I have Google to search translation sites. Google refuses to believe Kimchee is a word so I'm assuming you're trying for kimchi.
Kimchi is a dish made from salted and fermented vegetables, most commonly napa cabbage.
The only direct translation I could find was kimchi on English translates to kimuchi in Japanese.
And the only slang I could find for it actually means pussy. As in "getting some kimchi"
So what were you going for and where did you get it from?
8772053
Yeah, I do mean Kimchi. I'm in the habit of spelling it kimchee for...stupid reasons I won't get into, and I should probably fix it in the chapter.
Anyway, for those who don't watch enough anime or whatever, a common expression (especially among girls) is "kimochi warui", which basically translates to "creepy" or "gross" or "disgusting".
8772053
I think she is asking him to make her pregnant.
The second bit had to come after Kristin Wiggās early lines in that 2016 movie where she had the best part.
8772064
No. Not even remotely close.
8772060
huh. I watch alot of anime but only a few terms really stick with me and that's definitely not one of them. Maybe I'm watching the wrong kind of anime.
Preach it sister.
Hoof bump?
Hoof bump.
XD This was funny. I particularly enjoyed the Pinkie antics here. As soon as I read
I was like "Oh boy, whatcha got for us?"
And it did not disappoint.
Also, Nutshaven? XD Sunset is totally right - and I kind of agree with Twilight there at the end.
8772066
I'm still lost on what she's asking/saying snips.
8772177
I explained it a few comments back.
8772068
I confess it baffled me too, and Iāve been an animĆ© fan since the early 1980sābut then Iām pretty sure I too donāt watch the kind of material in which the term would show up.
8772182
So..... She's telling him, no?
8772206
No, it's... *sigh* I hate explaining the joke. Here goes:
Any time this girl has to do something intimate with Snips, she mutters to herself, "kimochi warui", knowing he doesn't understand her. She's bitching about having to put out for him because she thinks he's gross/being with him is gross, but it's how she gets stuff out of him.
8772204
It's a very common expression. You probably just never noticed it.

Hate to say it, my friend, but your first snippet's big joke went down in flames.
8772354
It was mainly a joke for people who understand enough Japanese to get it, so that's to be expected. It's less the "I don't get it" people and more the "So it was this, this, that, or the other, right?" people. But, again, thisi s one that you actually can't suss out from Google.
That all having been said, calling attention to the failure of the joke is kind of a dick move :P
8772033
Or like the name Spike came up with for Throax's pony form - Crystal Hoof.
8772272
Oh... Sorry making you do that ps you could have pm my that
Awesome!
8772272
Ah. So...Snails' 'Neighponese Girlfriend' has been engaging in 'compensated dating' in regards to him, not that he's smart enough to notice.
8772483
Eh, I'd have had to explain it a thousand times over, might as well do it once...and then nobody will bother to check the comments before wanting it explained again...
8772507
Pretty much, yeah. Or, short version, she's a ho. :P
8772542
I checked the comments for an explanation before asking, and then only clarified it with what I knew of Japanese culture (mostly from Hentai, I'll admit ^^; ), so...you're welcome?
8772060
Ah okay
kimochi' a Japanese word meaning 'feeling', 'mood' or 'sensation'.
A good feeling could be 'kimochi ii' and a bad feeling 'kimochi warui'.
Widely disseminated among American otaku due to its prolific use in hentai anime games, wherie it is usually translated as 'It feels good' or 'It's good.
Might have heard it in Evangelion used as kimochi warui. Hopefully that slows down the comments questioning it.
It's a shame you can't sticky comments here otherwise you could post a response and have it right there front and center.
In one of my campaigns, I had one village named Pezput. Even the villagers call it Pisspot, because it's on the edge of the most miserable swamp on the continent, and it's new enough that literally no one likes living there. (No one mammalian, anyway.) Someone once joked that they lived by where the gods relieved themselves, one thing led to another, and here we are now.
Also, for the record, read the comments on the first snippet's joke. Not going to ask; question answered.
As a Japanese speaker, I failed to get the joke in the first snippet until seeing the comments. Then again, I've always been mediocre at wordplay, which is what much of Japanese verbal humour is based on. So maybe that's the problem in this situation. Also that when I lived in Japan at the time it was common for the two words to get mashed into "kimoi".
Still, poor Snips. He's not a bad person, he doesn't deserve to be treated that way.
8772611
Kimoi, I'm trying to think of what regional slang that is...Nagano? I don't think Tokyo dialect speakers ever did that one, but I could be mistaken.
8772652
I lived in the Fukuoka prefecture for a year about 14 years ago, specifically Kitakyuushuu. Went to school and everything. I'm almost certain that it isn't used anymore, just like no-one uses "wizard" anymore.
I wonder if Twilight Sparkle is an Egg-headed Succubus.
The way I took it, is that she was saying "kimochi ii" as in "she's enjoying the sex so much she screams, or pretends to keep Snails around her finger". And really, I'd rather keep it as my personal headcannon.
8772677
Ah. I do seem to recall hearing "kimoi" once on Detective Conan some time back, and now that I think about it, it was one of the Gunma Prefecture cases. So maybe just period slang?
Well that was amusing hehe
Proof that the mindset of 'Pinkie Pie is Pinkie Pie; don't try to understand it' is a life-saver.
8772272
Possibly, though I perhaps also should have specified . . .

Yup.
8775804
There kind of was, dudeseph. Months ago.
8776787
I haven't touched my tags since the last big tag audit.
After reading the Comment section, it answered the Kimchi question ... but now I feel even worse for Snails.
As for the rest of the snippets they were funny, but I almost feel it's a missed opportunity that Pinks didn't queef after saying "Pussy Farts".
Pinkie Pie, you are starting to push the envelope...
8772060
Ooooh, I think I've heard that. Granted I generally tend to watch dubs if an animes got it, but I've seen a fair few anime that either A. Never get subbed or B. Don't get subs until WAY later.
I donāt get it
8772060
I... I honestly should maybe start watching more anime. The only animes Iāve really watched from start to finish was Akame Ga Kill (so freaking awesome by the way) Yugioh and Digimon. Most anime expressions I know Iāve learned from those TNTL Anime vines on youtube.
Somebody please explain this to me
???what does it have to do with kimchi
P.S kimchi is great!!!!!
