... Wow.
This doesn't seem to be based on the youtube vid I posted on your front page at all!
1958119 This was written before the fact, my friend.
It sure is cool to hate the modern world, isn't it? How can we just sit back and watch MTV when people are starving in Africa? How can we send text messages when we used to talk face-to-face? How can we be so obsessed with body image that we forget what's important?
This fic has introduced me to you and your work, and I don't think I'll read anything else. I don't have anything against you as a person, but the world is more complicated than that, and nothing can be fixed with good intentions and liberal ideals. Personally, I'm a Libertarian, and I think people should do whatever they want, and if they want to look pretty in plastic, let them. After all, I'm wearing a zebra-striped hat and a pair of heart-shaped sunglasses. Indoors, because I like to be ironic.

It was dark...but...good.

Well... congratulations, the way you worded that review convinced me to read the story when I normally would have passed on it.
Ehh, it's kind of mediocre, bearing little resemblance to FiM. However, I don't think the story means quite what you think it means...
Thank you for the mental image of ponies with silicon tits...
1958196 Well, as long as nobody actually agrees with me, we're okay. All I took from it is the usual schtick about how it's wrong to be obsessed with body image, how we profit from the misery of others, and how much I hate people who pretend to be Michael Moore. Really, we don't need more Moore!
1958148 That's one way to look at the story, but not my intention....
1958240 Do you plan on explaining your intention, then? I don't mean to seem rude, but just saying it's 'not my intention' and then not explaining immediately is annoying and you shouldn't do it.

I see it as more of a more classical utopia/distopia duality; the shiny happy utopia, supported by the hellish distopia of slavery beneath (With the added bonus of other-species exploitation and potential genocide). It makes the Heinlein comment somewhat ironic, when a quick scan of his works turns up some stories that used a similar setup...
1958253 There are many different ways in which this could be interpreted, one being the one you mentioned. The general thought of things, though, while writing was to never judge a book by its cover. Yeah, I went off to the left or right at times, or maybe even a lot, but that is just generally because of the fact I let my mind drift when I write and write what I may. Not trying to be a complete dick by putting your thoughts and ideas down, it's generally interesting to see what other people see in what I write.
I understand why you may not want to read anything else of mine, and that is no issue to me. The world is a complicated place my friend, and there is always more than what meets the eye.
1958271 My issue is less with the presentation, and more with the fact that everypony is evil because they like to look pretty. Now, I hate vapid celebrity idiots as much as the next guy, but in all honestly, I'd rather watch Jersey Shore than anything by Janeane Garofalo. Maybe I'm just a glutton for punishment that way.
I've always thought of the body as being a canvas, which is probably why I hate it when people seem to get upset about treating it that way. Sure, I was handsome two tattoos and three piercings ago, but I don't give a crap if people think I'm ugly just because of this awesome tattoo (seriously, it's like Odion from Yu-Gi-Oh), and I don't like being treated like less of a person because of it. And yes, this is an issue I've had to deal with. God, being a libertine is hard work sometimes.
1958313 Let there be light, ideas and people shrouded in the darkness.
Judge before, regrets flow heavy should luck not be in your favor.

Erm... You're comparing tattoos to mass slavery and genocide. Those are a bit worse than just trying to look pretty.
I mean, unless the ink for those tattoos was made out of pureed orphans or something, but I don't think that would help your argument...
1958787 You mean you don't murder orphans for your tattoos? Then... What do you make your tattoos out of?
1958313 If the worst thing you have to deal with is someone thinking you're less of a person for having piercings and tattoos, then I envy you. While it's hard to deal with people judging you based on your looks, surely you must have wanted people to think something if you went through all that work on yourself in the first place. It's a two-way road, and furthermore don't expect everyone to like the same kind of art let alone interpret said art the same way. I call it the bee-job: if you *choose* to get a job working with bees, don't complain when you get stung.
For me, I will never need a tattoo to show someone what I like or believe in until language itself and/or geek t-shirts are abolished.
As far as the story goes, it's a fimfic story, not a sci-fi social commentary like Metropolis. I'm not really sure what there is to gain out of inflating a message that wasn't there.
1959604 It's just what I got out of it, no need to get nastier than me.
That was rather disturbing. I don't mean that in a bad way, necessarily.
There were a couple of grammatical errors if you care to correct them.
Either add a "what" to the beginning of this sentence, or get rid of the "was" in the middle.
Pronoun confusion. Is it singular, or are they plural?
I think something is missing from the end of this sentence.
Either "many times", or "many a time".
And finally:
This may be nitpicking, but these sentences are sort of unnecessary, as their information is implied by the situation.
Also, the paragraph that starts...
...changes tenses in the middle.
Don't hurt me!
This was an interesting concept. Food for thought, certainly.
1961773 No hurt, my friend. I always appreciate it when someone comes along and finds some fixes.
People who exchange their real bodies for fake ones are just insecure. They hate themselves, and getting a fake body part is just screaming out that fact.
I personally don't like fake people, but I also know that I can't do anything about it and i'm not their boss.
I don't have any fake part on my body... I have no tattoos, I have never dyed my hair, I have a real ass and and real boobs, i don't wear color contacts, i don't wear fake nails, nothing.
But would you consider braces fake? Hmm...

Best way any woman can be.
1962156 Then it was my pleasure.
1964851 What about tooth implants? I was born with a genetic "glitch", and five of my adult front teeth never grew in. The insurance companies call it cosmetic, but without my retainers (which will be replaced with permanent implants soon), I have gaping holes in my smile, and a problem eating certain foods. Burn victims too, have a completely understandable need for "cosmetic" surgery. You could say that it's just for self esteem, but really, who would feel comfortable walking around in public for the rest of their life, with horrible body scars? People would stare. They could be discriminated against. Even nose jobs have their place, if someone breaks their nose.
)
I don't like the concept of tattoos and unnecessary cosmetics myself, but I also know some people don't like beards, or seeing me wear shorts in the winter. It is truly their choice. (Sorry, I go on long rants when I'm sleepy
Well... This is quite... Wow. I can't word it. But I suppose that those killer-things were the Changelings, right?
God damn, Tumbleweed...
That was an amazing tale.
Oh... my...
Amazing! I really enjoyed this--thanks!
5726302 Thanks! This was one of my more... unique stories. I'm glad you liked it!
Whoa.
Creepy. Dark. AWESOME. 
Were the creatures in question changelings? They talked about how they're an adaptive species and how they can shapeshift - plus what other species would ponies use for what is essentially plastic surgery with biomass?
Although I wasn't phased by this story in the slightest, I have to applaud you for it. Well done!
Even though this is labeled as "complete" please do a second chapter and/or a sequel.
