Why did they make this episode?

What was the moral for little girls? Don't be afraid of failure?

Then what was the point of using a college dropout instead of some filly the CMC could hang out with to help make them confident in their abilities like Tender Taps?

Do most young kids need this lesson? Not really. It's more of a problem with adults.

Did they make this for us? Did they make this to spite us? I just feel sad when I remember this episode again.

I have a younger sister who watches MLP and she knows I do too and she told me that I remind her of Flutter Brutter and she told me that I could finish college too if I tried like him.

What the fuck is the point of this episode? I just want fucking cute ponies. I don't want an existential crisis filled with dread and self-loathing.

The point of the episode was to remind you that if you've failed its your fault and your fault alone because you're lazy, and all you really have to do is trying and you'll succeed.

I'll be happy if Dave Rapp dies in a fire. Fuck that bastard. Fuck him. FUCK. HIM.

Hi Jim

>>30043786
Not really. That one was just about a mare who ended up where Twilight could have ended up if she didn't go down her path towards friendship and also to give some more background into Twilight's life.

This episode though... it was about a fucking college dropout who is afraid of failure and in constant self-doubt. Not some mare who lost her way or has a friendship problem. This was about a fucking college dropout who wants to move back in with his parents because nothing he does ever works and he doesn't understand what to do with his life.

This was about people like me.

One of the things that made me fall in love with pone back in S1 was the messages.
They had a barefaced racism episode. Using a fucking zebra. No shit did I not expect that from a namby pamby little girls show, It blew my expectations out of the water. That novelty's kept me watching right through to today, for good or for ill they never stop surprising me. The day pone becomes a predictable comfort zone is the day pone stops being The Ride, and the day pone dies desu.
What's this "for little girls" shit, anyway? The morals are good at age, and are delivered in a way that any age can appreciate. You know the funniest thing here? You're little sister gets it and you don't. Like, REALLY don't. "To spite us"? Really? Just like any other message in the show: IT'S A MESSAGE. TAKE IN ON BOARD. DO WHAT ZEPHYR DID AND GET YOUR SHIT TOGETHER.

I managed it after that episode.
Had already been on the meds for a few years, but it gave me the impetus to actually take advantage of them and DO shit. I've gone from not getting out of bed to volunteering erreryday. Of my own volition. Because it's satisfying.

Smarties aren't basic anti-depressants, Anon. And that time that you were sad because you wanted the red Nintendo but it was sold out isn't a depression. It's OK though, no one here will judge you. People will just assume that you're a complete moron, but you are, so that's not a judgement, it's merely stating a fact.

I'll give you an autobio if you really want, but what does it matter when you're so adamant? I don't know what you're trying to accomplish with this. My life's become better, Whether some sadsack on 4chan believes me or not doesn't affect that. All it does is hurt you and literally only you.
If you're so entrenched in your self-loathing autism that you cannot even conceive of someone getting out of it and assume it MUST be a lie, then you're pretty fucking far gone. I'll give you that. But hey, if you're outlook's so impenetrably bleak why am I having to tell you to kill yourself? You're still here, rebelliously shitposting, instead of in a box 6 feet under. So maybe it ain't as hopeless as you think, yeah?

Peace out, faggot. Prove me wrong, I dare you.

Yep, sounds definitely legit.

I'm not sure if you're stupid enough to believe that you're helping anyone, or you're just some kind of sadist who enjoys giving twisted advises to make other people feel miserable. Given that you won't stop repeating "we're on 4chan!!!", I'd say that it's the latter, and you just came right out of /b/ to spread your shit around.
>>

>escapist butthurt
Face it, nigga. You can't get away from traditional values anywhere. No matter how much /tv/, /co/, /v/, /a/ or /mlp/ stuff you consume you'll always be faced with them, because most of that stuff promotes traiditonal values and encourages kids to study, work hard, enter relationships and try and be successful in life. Many fuckers here are trying to ignore all of these whenever they pop up in media they consume, but you can't run away from it forever.
>>
>>30043798
Since you only truly fail when you give up, I'm afraid it is indeed your fault.
And the point of the episode was to remind us that there is still a way out of this fucking downward spiral and it sure as hell isn't in wallowing in your own misery.
>>
>>30044193
>>"It's like you're not even trying."
Except he never said that. Nobody is claiming that getting your shit together is easy, because it isn't. But either you'll end up offing yourself in couple years, or you'll start by setting some small goal and try to better yourself.
>>
>>30044418
Wow, that was a really insightful comment, Anon. I think you just opened my eyes. You should write a book, your absolutely spot-on reply could save millions of lives. There are people right now who have never heard "you just have to try!!! :DDD", and I'm 100% sure they all would get over any problem just following your simple but effective advice. You're a God amongst men. I wouldn't be surprised if you got the Nobel prize, because sure as fuck you deserve it. Thank you, Anon. Thank you.

Maybe part of the message is to encourage little girls to help their brothers be better than lazy good-for-nothings.

So now you have both your sister and MLP telling you that you can do it. Quit trying to shove your problems under the bed and git gud at your life. Being useless is your choice.

Seriously, Anon, I really can't understand why aren't you directing the WHO right now. Your out-of-the-box approach to solving health issues is being painfully wasted on a place like this. I'm infinitely grateful, but there are more people out there that need your smiles, your "this is only happening to you because it's what you you want :DDDDDD", and your discount psychology. Please, save those other people too. I'm begging you.
>>
>>30043773
>she told me that I could finish college too
See, to me, that was the point of the episode. The Zephyr's of the world weren't supposed to watch and get motivated (though that's a possible bonus), the people which failure older siblings were supposed to realize they still had potential and motivate them rather than write them off. That's how I took it, since my older brother was a peace of shit that I wrote out of my life long ago. After seeing the ep, I thought a lot about him for the first time in a while. Too bad he's dead now, but it seems your sis also reflected on motivating older siblings to be better.
>>
>>30043980
Ok, imagine if you tried all of that and you still found that it wasn't satisfying. In fact, it made you feel even worse, because you thought that it was supposed to make you feel good, but it didn't make you feel anything at all. Then imagine that you kept on trying day after day and the only thing that changed is that every day you think about killing yourself just a little bit more.

I know I've walked too many miles in these shoes, Anon. I've been trying to find new ones, but nobody seems to carry my size.

This episode disappointed me.

Why? Because I was expecting a pathetic hikkineet who thought of himself as a failure, actually was a failure, and escaped away from his problems with cheap escapism because he was too scared of change, trying new things, fixing himself and failing at all of those.

Instead I got a failed-chad who thinks of himself as the hottest shit in the universe but is actually an overall loser who thinks "his big time is yet to come" and does absolutely nothing to change his situation but expects to be handed a solution in silver platter just because he is he.

They may both be losers, but they are quite different types of it.

It was my second attempt.
My first was the perfect first-step I'd always dreamed of and it went down uncannily similar to your description. I felt so fucking done with everything.
So I went back to doing nothing for a few months, ran out of distractions, got bored, and finally took on the charity job me mum'd been bugging me about for years. It pays nothing, it's irrelevant to my qualifications, but it feels weirdly fulfilling to the point where I'm going 2-3 times as often as I signed on for. If nothing else I'm getting a work ethic & a diurnal schedule out of it that I didn't have before, which can be built off if in the long run. It's a start.

I don't want you to kill yourself. But according to your posts you think you're never gonna get better, that nobody in your situation does, and that any claims otherwise must be utter fantasy. Which begs the question y'know?

The obvious moral for the little girls who watch this show is to be patient with their loser older brothers who watch kids cartoons.
>>
>>30043773
It seems like more and more they're taking pot shots at the fandom as a group. It's not even just this specific episode, but others with oddly specific situations and morals.

It's probably paranoia, but it wouldn't be the first time writers have used their medium to talk to the audience.
>>
>>30046260
The more recent morals have to do with being successful already and how to deal with it like Dash and her parents or Fluttershy talking about how it was dealing with socalled experts in making her animal sanctum

What the fuck is going on MLP? Even the songs are becoming parodies of themselves. I just want cute ponies playing around and then some dumb problem like a new mean pony shows up or Rarity is stressed out because of whatever.

Nleventually we're going to get an episode on how to turn your cutie mark into getting a job, how to pay taxes, and how Equestria needs upstanding citizens for its government to function

> Do young kids need this lesson?
Everyone older than 6 has been afraid of failure. Never mind the fact that the show has been on for almost seven years. Kids who started watching when they were 10 are now 16 and 17, and it's a good thing for shows to mature with the audience.

> What was the point of using a college dropout?
He's younger than the mane 6, who have had the most moral lessons by far. Older characters are more effective for these types of moral lessons than younger characters because the older characters suffer more internal conflict. It makes sense to have the character be related to Fluttershy because she is the best character to help with issues of self-doubt. It's believable coming from her because she is most likely to have those feelings herself out of the mane 6.

> I could finish college too if I tried like him.
This almost makes me suspect trolling. No one would be so forward about their personal failings being the reason the episode makes them sad.

>What was the point of this episode? I just want fucking cute ponies.
MLP has always been a show with forceful moral lessons. That self-loathing you feel is your conscience speaking to you.
