Hm.

Right. Let's assume that you are going to erase the possibility of accidentally shooting a totally sentient pony. Skin the pony alive, burn the flesh. Or make it into coats and suits, and sell it to high class people. I mean, a fur-suit made out of pegasus wings or cutie marks would be quite the money-bringer. You could make a pretty damn good business out of it, now that I think about it. You get rid of the body, you get money from it... It's not foolproof, but you could get enough to get a damn fine lawyer for your case.
Still wouldn't protect you from a lynching. Y'know, for good old "friendship and compassion" cause.

edit2: on second thought, I best not mention it.

Psychotic or normal? Doctors are actually okay people if you get to know them unless they have gone totally around the bend. I doubt even the most heartless prick of a doctor would actually let a pony live during the operation without anesthetic or a mercy-kill.

I don't know what I'm more disturbed by - the idea or the fact that I know the proper term for that procedure off the top of my head.

Honestly, there's a lot of cases where doctors have to do stuff that would sort of fit that description IRL. It's not a full autopsy though, and it's usually done under some kind of anesthesia.

Honestly, I think the pony system is heliocentric, and the moon is somehow stabilized so that it doesn't orbit, and remains on the far side of the planet from the sun at all times. When Celestia/Luna raise the sun/moon, they are triggering half of a rotation around the axis. This also nicely explains how NMM would 'bring eternal darkness' to Equestria: she would move the moon 180 degrees around the planet, permanently eclipsing the sun. Yes, it isn't "total" darkness, but for somepony who has never seen an eclipse before...

That's...actually an interesting idea. It makes you wonder how the timing worked for the ponies to save the world at sunrise, though. They weren't in the Everfree Forest that long, were they?

IIRC Nightmare Moon had already plunged the world into eternal darkness; when Celestia was freed from the Sun, she began the process of moving the moon back into the proper position, creating a false sunrise as it slowly became visible again. By the time they're all back in Ponyville, the moon has been moved and the lighting is back to normal.

I guess seeing the sun emerge over the horizon was a trick of the eye, then? Or some other half-assed explanation?

If you look at the horizon during episode 2, it looks a lot more like pre-dawn than night time. The stars are still out but it's pretty bright Compare it to say, Nightmare Night's sky.

But the optimist sees injustice as something discordant and unexpected, and it stings him into action.

I didn't remember correctly.  :P

So yeah, they spent all night wandering around in the forest. Seems reasonable, and it isn't like they would show us every moment of the entire night.
