The mane six have defeated many villains, most recently having help from the Pillars of Equestria. Leading them to wonder, just why in the hell is Equestria so prone to disaster and mayhem? Why didn't the ponies of the past clean up their messes? And why in the bucking hell doesn't anyone ever just execute someone?
And most importantly, why do they even have princesses if a group of six young adults are going to have to handle everything?

The first chapter is hilarious, I wonder what's gonna happen in the second chapter.
I got my bucket of popcorn and a cherry coke, let's do this shit.
Well, I'm not sure Discord CAN be killed, but they have good points about some of the others.
This seems interesting although I don't know what I've just read

It's okay, I don't know what I've just written. :)
Well obviously the real answer is 'this is a show for kids, things happen because the plot demands it, and the protagonists are forced to clean up everyone's messes because they're the protagonist and that's what they're there for' but you can't just say that, because that's both horrible and condescending. Which ultimately leads to plot holes so big you can drive a tank through them. Because apparently kids can't handle even a tiny bit of realism in shows or something. Bitter? Why would you think I was bitter?
8896918
Reality is a lie!
8896942
Shoot! I knew it didn't look quite right! Thanks.
... I dont' know what Im reading... But I think I like it
The moment I saw the title, I knew it was going to be good.
Let the madness begin!
I must have moar!
I would like to differ. I mean, they can't exactly nuke it from orbit, so honestly this seems the best way to be sure.
8897225
Why stop at nuking it?
And now the rock farm comes into play.
8897242
Key words, "from orbit". Celi and Lu would notice something floating near their sun and moon.
Besides, explosions always work to solve any situation. Especially those they shouldn't.
8897326
Not if they're floating with it! :D
8897372
Nah, the mane six have got to be ground level for the explosion so they can walk away from it without looking. It's a rule!
742? Celestia and/or Luna either were impossibly useless, failed to help out in situations they should have, or actually _caused_ major problems in only about 22 or 23 episodes in the first six seasons (counting two-parters as one episode), depending whether or not preventing dangerous Kaiju from wandering around and occasionally out of the Everfree is part of their responsibilities. Stopping, say, Hillbilly Ponies from quarreling isn't a job for the national executive, so Twilight can suck it up when it comes to things like that.
So, unless there were over 20 times as many Looming Disasters "off-screen", this is so exaggerated that it isn't really very funny. IMHO it would work better if they listed specific examples, such the time Rarity and the 'Bolts were plummeting to their deaths and Celestia sat around in the audience with her hoof up her ass. (The Princesses are pretty annoyingly useless by this point: they've been beaten by vines, bad weather, and now basic public speaking: what's next, stewed prunes?)

Unfortunately, the demographic the show has always aimed for has been 2-11 year olds, [1] which leads inevitably to dumbing down: while many 11 years old are capable of appreciating fairly complicated plots and good world building, 3 years old are barely comprehensible, let alone appreciative of subtlety.
[1] The Bronies have always been a profitable extra, not the fundamental business model.

I was thinking of all the other ponies and others they’ve likely helped, not just save the world stuff.
8897950
Which, as I said, ain't Princess level problems. But this is after all a crackfic, so I won't argue the issue.
I stared into insanity, and Pinkie Pie stared back.
... It's pretty awesome after a while. There are cupcakes.
One down, one to go...
a shame too... luna is mostly innocent in all this. she was absent for 1000 years after all.
This story is ridiculous, but I can't help but be amused anyway.
Nooo why Luna firsttt! Celestia is obviously worst pony!
why did luna die first!
I can't believe that worked.
Nah just watch, I’m calling it now, changeling.
8899161
TBH? It was just so I could make that joke at the end. Forgive me.
It's Rainbow, what did you expect? Success?
(Shots fired!)
Yeah. That's what she said.
Okay, I only half take back what i said about Rainbow in the previous chapter. That was freaking stupid.
Omg, how did I not see that coming!!???
*Equestria then burns*
8899689
I know right. Just outta left field! 😆
Can someone answer that?
Because I fucking called it.
I guess you could say that plan went... afoul...
...I'll see my self out
8900024
I'm actually only mad I didn't think to put that in the A/N.
8900024
*lets you back in* nICE one!

even trying to kill someone, she is obsessed with racing. also, it would have worked if they planted pikes beforehand
this also means celestia really is dead.
8900315
THANK YOU! I knew I'd seen something like a chair explosion before but couldn't remember just where! :D
Been playing Farcry 5?
8901317
Unfortunately just watching other people play it. I'm broke so haven't been able to play the latest and greatest games, cuz my computer sucks, my latest PS is a 2, and I only have up to a Wii. :(
8900321
Indeed, but where's the fun in that?
instead of a joke this chapter feel like it would be at least half full of the truth, which makes it funny.
I like this story.
While I thought this was going to far, I'm a bit dissapointed that this seems to follow the "we have big power so our bodies are strong in defens too" formular.
It is still nice.
It was a little bit dissapointing that Celestia had such a weak reaction. I get it that it isn't supposed to be serious, but it can be also "to" silly for me sometimes, I think I appreciate a bit of uuhhhmmm normality to make the comedy parts more special? Sorry I know what I mean but I'm not sure if I managed to say it like that.
There's a flaw in the logic here that is bothering me. Rainbow says that Cerberus "apparently could be tamed", and then she says Fluttershy "barely tamed [him]" even though it's her special talent. So is she saying Cerberus is easily tamable or not? It makes sense that the Princesses would have a tame guard dog, in case they needed to get in, though the downside of that is Cerberus not being effective enough at guarding. It also makes sense that they would have an untamed guard dog, so wild that even Fluttershy couldn't really get to him, making it so that he's a really effective but potentially volatile guard. But which plan is Rainbow trying to criticize? Which does she think they enacted? If she believes that Cerberus is barely tamable, then it's a credit to Tirek's intelligence that he managed to sweet-talk his way out, not a detriment to the Princesses. And if she believes Cerberus is too tame, her second line here doesn't make sense.
All that aside, though, this is a wonderful beginning. I can't wait to discover the shenanigans that follow.
