OK, this story is a work of one evening (for writing, the second one for editing ).

I was watching some mindless comedy when an advertisement of Orbit gums popped up. As mind sometimes does, the ad lingered in my head, producing various images and totally random associations, until a thought came: what would happen if Colgate saw it? So I dropped the show and sat down to writing. I had no plan, I just set the stage, introduced the actors, and let them act. This crappy story is the result.

I don't know if anyone enjoys it (hell, I don't even know if anyone reads it), but if you do, I will be most thrilled.

I gotta say reading this story with the right music really helps with the atmospere of the whole piece.

A post from iloveportalz0r that doesn't brutally bash my grammar mistakes? Could it be that my grammar is getting acceptable?
EDIT: I always wondered how you got all those custom icons. Now I know, because I found your greasemonkey script. dl.dropbox.com/u/31471793/FiMFiction/emoticons/misc_Twilight_crazy_invert.png
I didn't even know you could do such things within a browser. We live and learn, huh?

Any specific piece comes to mind? Probably many anime battle themes would do.

>We live and learn, huh?
…throughout life's problems we live and learn…fighting to stay, on top of your game, life has its quirks, but you're not to blame…

It was more accidental than actually choosing it. I was just going through my playlist and the music got awesome at the same time as the story did. I believe it was Fate and Destiny from the Brave soundtrack. I just got lucky and everythign just synced up.

What...
Just happened?...
?

This reminded me of Dragon Ball for some reason And everypony was like 'okay, they fight to the death, why not'.

I liked it, but it was just so random

Yeah, hence the tag.
By the way, yeah, I have a bias towards Dragon Ball. But this story is nothing compared to my other one, Fight Full of Surprises. You can check it out, if you like, but let me warn you--it's slightly longer. But, at least Pinkie literally transforms Super Saiyan and throws Kamehamehas.

You have captured the Great and Powerful Anon's interest, and brutally raped it until what is left is a husk of dissatisfaction and longing for more of the same.

I ~~love~~ hate you, you brilliant bastard.
