So I haven't seen the new episodes yet, given that I had to leave early and spend most of the day traveling in my car. No biggie, I didn't catch Inspiration Manifestation until the day after it premiered and I skipped the
olympics Equestria Games because I slept in, then never bothered to see it on YT after hearing it wasn't as good as it could have been from a friend who generally thinks the same as I do about Polsky eps.
Now? I can't even go anywhere pony related without people gushing about how good today's eps must have been. The fact FimFic decidedly has a screenshot from today as the banner that keeps getting set as my new default no matter how many times I try to change it doesn't help.
Clearly there is but one reason: M. A. Larson is responsible for this
I'll catch the episodes tomorrow, but honestly? This is the strongest reaction I've EVER seen to an episode. And that's factoring in The Day Derpy Spoke.
