Fluttershy has wing fingers and doesn't have to stoop to Earth Pony methods. :rainbert:

Have we ever seen pegasi actually holding things with their wings as if they were hands? The closest I can think of was in PYHD when Fluttershy used one of her wings to pull open a saddlebag, but that's easy to do with just the bony part of an avian wing. There was also that time Rainbow Dash covered her face with her wings and peeked out from between her feathers, but she still wasn't holding anything.

Celestia pushed Twilight aside with her wing in the Sombra induced nightmare. Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash held the jousting batons with their wings. Some pegasi were pumping iron in Hurricane Fluttershy. While regular hand-like usage hasn't been seen, they've shown a fair amount of manipulation with them.

I'm not really sure that demonstrates the finesse necessary for a tiny scoop, though - their wings are flexible, but don't really seem suited for intricate finger work. After all, they're not hands that happen to grant flight, they're wings that act a little bit like hands when it's funny.

Basically what I'm saying is there is no way for Fluttershy to do this without sticking her nose in cat poop and that is hilarious and adorable.

The jousting lances were attached to their armor. Their wings were free to flap as they charged one another. :-I

I think we've seen Fluttershy open things with her wings before. In fact, didn't that one scene of her opening a bag with her wings serve as the inspiration for Squeebleshy? :pinkieshrug:

And that's not to mention, even if Fluttershy could hold a litter scoop like that, her wings stick out to her sides and not in front of her; thus, I doubt she'd be able to reach into the litter box.

If you're referring to ROBOT B9's example, yeah, it was (I even mentioned it last night :-I). Squeebleshy had existed for a long time before that, though, as she was inspired by someone badly misinterpreting the Stare Masters tag.

She probably has a shovel with an extra long handle, because she has her extra long mane and tail to worry about. Though even the world 'handle' is problematic to ponies. :saddershy:


Admittedly all the animals are at least semi sentient, so she probably has them use a little kitty or bunny outhouse.

Unless we're talking about Gummy, who doesn't appear to need to eat, or sleep, or shit at all. :ponder:

Show's over. internet has been won. :hilarious:
Luna confirmed for omnivore (like her pet).
Edit: Turned out it was commissioned by someone in the Kansas City Brony group I'm in on Facebook, and they were responsible for giving Andy the BBQ sauce.

There's a new syndicated strip out called "Intelligent Life", about a bunch of nerds. It's drawn by one of Jim Davis's assistants at Paws Inc.

He posted this sneak peek on his Facebook:

My goodness, there are problems there. It's like the cartoonist heard about "women's issues" third-hand and decided to make a comic about it.

Sorry, dude, don't think Dash can save you there.

Interrupting Dash's Tail chat for a quick announcement: If you like fantasy football and ponies, the 4th season of the Equestria Football League is getting underway over here.

And now, back to your regularly scheduled programming.

While some are obviously better than others, I feel like I should reiterate that all of them are good (except Friends Forever #1, and also maybe the special EqG issue which I did not read). A bunch of them are printed in paperbacks now if you want to catch up and also want them in print.

So turns out I can still watch the HUB after all despite the cable company changing the line-up! :party:

I Just can't record it till they're done. :fluttersmith:


Oh well I'll still be able to watch a lot of it none the less, so yay!! :crack:

Edit: I love how the first question AJ gets asked during the MegaMareathon is if she'd rather be a unicorn or a Pegasus, man, earth pony racism even in the fanbase....that's just depressing man, :applejargh:

Here answer about it being whats on the inside that counts was nice though. :flirt:

Still say that lil whipper snapper needs a time out though. :angry:

Well at least they're keeping the Hub, rather than getting rid of it as I believe one or two did. At least that enough still have it, I'd stay shows it's still popular.

What are you referring to here? Are they airing in-character Q&As with the ponies like those Hot Topic videos a year or two back? If so, post links, I love stuff like that. :whatsup:

That's exactly what they're airing. Right before and after the ad breaks, they're airing chopped-up bits of those exact videos, with clips of kids asking those questions. It's nothing new, unfortunately.

Yeah. I'm glad Cableone is Keeping the HUB, but after dropping the Viacom networks *which I really don't miss at all save for being able to watch Korra*. They pretty much have to keep what ever "children's entertainment" networks as they call them, that they have left, but hey I won't complain. And yeah, dunno if it's a regional bias, but I've seen some family resturaunts & doctors offices play the HUB here before. Although not always when pony is on, just in the Backgorund for the kids I. Guess.

So at he very least Southwest Okies enjoy watching the HUB. :eeyup:
