I was gonna rage about looking waaaaay too deep into background things that probably weren't thought about by the writers all that much, but hell, let's roll with it.


Coup, engage!


Though tbh, this should probably be on the pony thread.

Quote from: Chesterton
For, in order that men should resist injustice, something more is necessary than that they should think injustice unpleasant. They must think injustice absurd; above all, they must think it startling. They must retain the violence of a virgin astonishment. When the pessimist looks at any infamy, it is to him, after all, only a repetition of the infamy of existence. But the optimist sees injustice as something discordant and unexpected, and it stings him into action.

There's a MLP thread? Whoops, my bad.  :-[

EDIT: Huh, it's right, there, I must be getting blind.
Is it just me or are the forums acting up?

The unicorns hid the thread from you to try to keep the truth from getting out.
