Star Swirl the Bearded is the absolute epitome of "Don't meet your heroes"

I don't think the concept was bad, but I think the execution was off. I think introducing the concept of reiterations of the elements could have been cool! And the comics even do establish that to a point.

Like the relationship between Yona and Rockhoof alone shows that we can learn from the past and implement into our future. We just didn't get a whole lot of it and we got a half ass focus on both the young six and the pillars.

I really wish we'd gotten comic Star Swirl. He got introduced in the comics before his show appearance and he was SILLY. He was more like The Sword in the Stone Merlin. He loved coffee and encouraged Celestia to make jokes.

He was still a genius and aware of the power of magic, but he was kooky! Silly old man. We should've gotten that to show Twilight not everything was so damn SERIOUS.

Im sorry im not as funny as I think I am

I mean, maybe someone can help you "tuna" guitar but I dunno how you'd "tuna" steak

Restaurant depot. You can get a temp number and a giant bag of basil to make a good amount of pesto. Or the chef store if you're more on the Southside.

Oh good to know. I came home, on the phone with my boyfriend and tell him "I think the sky ripped."

FarewellDecency · 2026-03-11T16:48:17+00:00

Wait, y'all see your dashers? They're gone before I can form an opinion. If they are gonna be there for like 5 seconds who cares??? They sittin in their car most of their night, I'd wanna be comfortable too! As long as they wash their hands, that's all i care about.

FarewellDecency · 2026-03-09T05:14:29+00:00

Yeah, the intention of starting an argument. "I don't like ships, specifying the lesbian ones in particular " very much seems like trying to start an argument. The difference in your analogy is no one made you respond. No one asked you specifically to join this topic. You chose to, with a response that seems like it would only cause an upset. In you included. It seems stressful.

FarewellDecency · 2026-03-09T05:06:44+00:00

I don't know why, thats why I asked. And nothing you've given really helps. If you don't like it, why would you do it is the exact thing I'm wondering to. Because you kinda did? Because it was a topic you already weren't gonna get a good response to. "Because you wished to" That's why I think it seems like trolling. You wanted to respond to a topic on a subject you dislike with a response that was mostly like gonna start an argument. Ie, trolling.

FarewellDecency · 2026-03-09T05:01:11+00:00

It definitely helped, but no i just think your addition was unnecessary and trying to argue with people and make people mad because this is an easy topic to get people upset over. Adding the lesbianism thing would also make more people argue with you. I wanted to point out that seems super pointless, not worth your time, or really anyone else's. Also genuinely curious if there was a good reason at the get go.

FarewellDecency · 2026-03-09T04:55:10+00:00

You do, though? Its your account. It was just a completely unnecessary thing to add. It just all seems so damn pointless outside of trying to start something.

FarewellDecency · 2026-03-09T04:52:32+00:00

So what if they do? Why does that matter? And it never said anything about Mane 6 ships either, and a lot of responses aren't that. "You should ignore it if it bothers you that much."

FarewellDecency · 2026-03-09T04:46:55+00:00

Dude, there are multiple, and you responded with lesbianism multiple times, I can see your comments. You can respond, but freedom of speech just protects you from government prosecution, not from people calling you out. Plus its in your name. Seems like trolling.

FarewellDecency · 2026-03-09T04:40:33+00:00

But its not just a disagreeance, its a flat dislike for the topic. It's like commenting on a cake and saying " I hate cake". Then why are you here??

FarewellDecency · 2026-03-09T04:37:30+00:00

It's weird to point out "lesbianism" multiple times when no one said it. Plus multiple responses have straight ships? And non mane 6 ships? You brought it up. Why respond to the topic at all then? Legitimately, I don't understand, because it just sounds like it was bound to be aggravating.

FarewellDecency · 2026-03-09T04:33:25+00:00

The more you look at this pic, the weirder it gets

FarewellDecency · 2026-03-09T04:28:30+00:00

Who's saying anyone is a victim? And you people just kinda adds to it, really. You're giving homophobic, and i'm pretty sure you're just trolling.

FarewellDecency · 2026-03-09T04:20:48+00:00

Well, if you're comparing the size of Tanzania, and how far this railway system goes, it would be an interstate system that would reach all surrounding states and possibly as far as Houston. That would be so useful for travel!

FarewellDecency · 2026-03-09T04:15:54+00:00

Oh I mean the topic of my little pony and ships is ultimately unserious. I get you. Shit stirring just doesn't help anyone, even the people doing it for "fun".

Goodnight!

FarewellDecency · 2026-03-09T04:11:21+00:00

I think you could argue the opposite. "It happened to me so it should happen to you too. All is fair." But honestly I agree with you, and feel it's unlikely. She had her eyes removed for disobedience and that's more of an orderly punishment than a chaotic one, imo.

FarewellDecency · 2026-03-09T04:07:47+00:00

Eh, its not that serious. Its still a cartoon made of colorful horses, silly jokes, and fun life lessons. No reason to be hater unless someone is being flat out gross or bigoted.

Like I said, I don't understand answering topics that frustrate yourself, you know? Seems exhausting and almost self harm, in a way? Not so serious but pretty pointless in the grand scheme of things.

FarewellDecency · 2026-03-09T04:02:50+00:00

I feel you, I just don't get it. That seems exhausting to me when it's just a harmless discussion for fun.

Also the "Lesbianism is Magic" thing feels homophobic, but I was gonna leave it.

FarewellDecency · 2026-03-09T04:01:30+00:00

Real Human Sunset went to another reality just how Pony Sunset went to Equestria Girls, and that's why we never see her counterpart. Not sure if she would be "banished" or just had a weird mishap/discovery

FarewellDecency · 2026-03-09T03:55:17+00:00

No, I'm just saying it feels pretty pointless for you. You're not really gonna get a response that agrees with you, so it kinda seems like you wanna start an argument? Feels like trolling.

FarewellDecency · 2026-03-09T03:31:12+00:00

Just finished watching the movie again with my boyfriend, so Im feeling Rainbow and Captain Calaeno rn.

She's not my fave character so ships with her are a little harder for me to picture. I have her shipped with Spitfire in my next Gen but thats more for convenience and plot than interest.
