There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a pony in the depths of a Friendship binge.

Step right up, get your ticket punched, and enjoy the ride, folks. :moustache:


Rated 'Teen' as some stories may contain rudeness and innuendo. I'll update the tags as more stories are added.

Add the “Anthology” tag, maybe? Sounds like that’s what this will be.

Well done!

Just goes to show that one should never make assumptions about other ponies.

And I loved how you brought in Best Princess to show Boulder that is okay to be a strong mare.

As this is marked “incomplete” I’m hoping that it is the first chapter in a longer work.

Ever see an old movie called No Time For Sergeants?
Sergeant King (Myron McCormick) thinks backwoods hillbilly-turned-new recruit Will Stockdale (Andy Griffith) might the dumbest private ever to join the Air Force. When King puts him permanently in charge of the latrines, Stockdale thinks it's a promotion. Somehow, all King's attempts to make Stockdale look foolish backfire, and one of them even finds the sergeant demoted to private by his superiors. Stockdale, meanwhile, squeaks through training, and soon begins wreaking havoc in the skies.

Awful hard to learn how to be a 'proper' unicorn if there aren't any around

Glad you enjoyed it. :twilightsmile:

Well... it is nearly impossible to not go around judging people by their appearance, but it seems like far too often that snap judgment is the only one that's ever made.

This will be a collection of short stories. I don't have any plans to continue Holder's story, but you never know...

"No Time for Sergeants" certainly has a familiar-sounding plot, but I don't think I've seen it before. I'll watch it when I get home from work today, thank you. :twilightsmile:

"T'was truly the greatest burden thou coulds't raise?"

"T'was" doesn't work here, as it simply means "it was". Try "Be that", or maybe "Wast yon figure in sooth..." No apostrophe in couldst, either. It's not a contraction.

Thank you. :twilightsmile:

I've fixed "couldst", but I think "It was truly the...?" works pretty well so I'll keep "t'was". I like your suggestion to "in sooth" instead of "truly", but I think that may make the sentence much more difficult to parse.

I'm pretty sure I've mangled the heck out of a 'countryfied' accent :applecry:, so I'm not hugely concerned if Luna's pseudo-Elizabethan English isn't spot on.

>tfw the party turns out to be Edward 40-hands instead of quiet discussion and Smash Bros.

I had to look up what "Edward 40-hands" means. Wow. Just... amazing/sad/bizarre the terrible things people willingly do to themselves and one another. :facehoof:

*quietly sips his mug of infused roasted ground-up baby water with crystallized plant blood and cattle excretions* :rainbowlaugh:

That was a hilarious read :rainbowlaugh::rainbowlaugh::rainbowlaugh::flutterrage::yay:

Sure, but 'natural' doesn't mean 'good' now, does it?

Indeed. Snake venom, crude oil, and carbon dioxide are all-natural materials, after all.

And nightshade. Don't want to leave that classic off your list of natural stuff. And that one's even a plant! :twilightsmile:

I'm probably butchering it, but there's an old PTerry joke
"It's not natural!"
"I see. Do you eat your meat raw and sleep in a tree?"
And that's not even getting into aging meats or the really horrific stuff.
Balut. Pressed duck. Jugged hare. Casu marzu.

You MONSTER! :fluttershbad:

Glad you enjoyed it. :twilightsmile:

People do eat the oddest things... but even foods we think of a 'normal' are kind of horrific. Everything that lives, does so because something else died - except some very simple life such as bacteria and lichen. Fun times. :twilightsmile:
