Heck yeah! Ponies are awesome!

 

And I'm serious about that. I mean... that video, obviously, exagerates things a little bit (or...er... a lot...) but even in canon? The charaters perform some fairly outrageous feats when you think about it.

 

See: Sonic Rainboom.

Ugh. No. Just no. That rainbow blast is going to give me migraines.

Exaggeration? Exaggeration? My view on MLP was inadvertently shifted after than Pinkie Spirit Bomb. (That... That... Monster isn't sufficient)

A sonic boom is produced when someone travels fast enough to break the sound barrier.

A sonic rainboom occurs when said pegasus travels fast enough to break the sound barrier... then accelerates to the point where they break the visual spectrum, creating a rainbow behind them. 

 

Bear in mind said character did a sonic rainboom when they were a child, and they've only been getting faster. It takes effort to reach acceleration, true, but she's getting to the point where she can make one happen on-demand. That is scary awesome.

 

And Panda... I am so tempted to send you the links to some other media that might shift your perception on the franchise. For a show about candy-colored horses, some of the fans really get DARK with it.

Like their explanation of what rainbows are made of. *shudder*

is it only Pegasus that can do the sonic rainboom?

I think so, because only they have the speed and the stupidity to fart rainbows.

Hey, look on the other side of the spectrum (Badum tsh), it's not that bad. Rainbow farts would be an interesting "social achievement" (anyone get the obscure reference?)

Breaking the visual spectrum would require breaking light speed, which is impossible… Oh. I guess we don't care that much about science here…

Well magic isn't really science...

Twilight Sparkle disagrees.

You're right, of course; it shouldn't work. The extrapolation that Rainboom=FTL is kind of over exaggerated game guessing type stuff... But then, MLP is full of stuff that, at some point, you simply have to chalk up to cartoon physics, like Pinkie Sense. It makes comparing it to an actual hard physics universe,like the cosmere, impossible.

Doesn't mean I won't continue to exaggerate to dupe the dominance of ponies though.

Also: there is a Vin Pony.

Vin should join the Mane 6 in learning about friendship.

She could be the Element of Awesome.

Or Paranoia.

 

I'm not the biggest expert on the program, but I bet MLP could use a few more assassinations.

There are assainations on the ponies? Like in Smile HD? :/ Edited by Queen Elsa Steelheart
