What part of "Magic" is there not to get?

It's a talking pony. With wings. It's magic, people

Remember, kids: Magic always explains what science cannot.
But according to Clarke's third law and i quote, "Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic". There for these pony's might just be millions of years ahead of us science wise.

this guy must have balls of steel to actually present that.
but he forgot: with number 2: the force of the fall would cause massive injuries, and hitting the target wouldnt transfer all the force onto the see-saw.
and with number 3: the same rule: impact force, with would still cause injury even if the butterflies could catch her. also, the group of butterflies would not stay as a single mass under that much force, they would break up and only slightly decrease the velocity. also, most of the butterflies would have been killed from the impact.

It could just be the bitter nerdrage in me since I haven't seen the show and thus cannot judge it on its own merits, but a better subject would have been to expose the faulty claim that the new show comes from "the same people who did Powerpuff Girls and Foster's".

Yes, Lauren Faust was a key developer in both series, but the creator was her husband, Craig McCracken... who as far as I can tell IS NOT involved with this series. So no, it's not "the same people", much like the Powerpuff Girls are not the Powerpuff Girls without Chemical X.

Am I the only one who thinks that the ponies are kinda creepy? They are certainly not cute. They got these huge eyes and enormous heads and bright colors and everything. Makes everything look disgustingly artificial.

Huh. I have that exact same model of laptop. (Asus N50Vn, if I'm not mistaken.) I can tell by the popup volume-level graphic.

It sucks.

Kidding. It's OK, but after several years of use it is quite apparently where the obvious flaws lie.

On topic: This guy is going to earn heaping helpings of derision or respect; it's an even guess which. Respect for doing this in high school, though - the bonds of peer approval are hard to break.

As part of a high school science assignment to determine how real the physics in movies and TV shows is, student "Stephen Magnet" has revealed the shockingly low standards of scientific research that goes into the average My Little Pony episode.
Uuuuuh...
I'll just point out that that isn't quite right.
Quit whining, pony! The avatar makes this too perfect an opportunity to miss.

They... uh... make them work for minimum wages and with only one week of yearly holidays.

Anyway my main question is, the series is called My Little Pony, so where the fuck are all the damn ponies?
We got Unicorns and Pegasii aplenty but jack all Ponies.
They are pegasii ponies, unicorn ponies, and earth ponies.

I think it's pretty legitimate to point out that Logan confused the kid's name with a character on the show. Even if it is an unofficial name.

Nothing! They've even touched Gundam therefore making it even more awesome.

Aaaand that's another thing. I would appreciate it if you'd stop calling me "Pony"
I am a lady, and I wish to be addressed as such. You may call me "Cap'n" or "Evey" or "Cap'n Evey"
