What makes it worse is that it was their idea. If you really wanted the Discords to be acting like bored basic white girls, you could have given them coffee cups, had them twirling their hair, filing their nails or something. Anything but this. Even for a "wow Discord sure is chaotic" gag it is beyond the pale unacceptable.

I remember even Meghan saying once you'd never see phones or tweeting in the show. Even if this was a gag it was too distracting.

Two of these are from a made up fantasy, so aren't real (like how flying cars don't exist in this world), the rest aren't out of place enough to feel intrusive (with exception of maybe the vidya, even though it was never referenced again until that shitshow Slice Of Life).

Already said; it works because it doesn't feel out of place; it's closer to a 1950s computer, something more on par with a 19th Century machine at this point than modern tech.

Discord's probably the only real case where they could get away with it, since he probably did get a smartphone from the EQG world.

People are freaking out about it because phones connect to a network. Ergo, if Discord has a phone, he's connected to a network somewhere. It's very modern, very information age.

What's sad is that this has been going on for a while now but getting worse. Look at the effort on others cites and towns; Canterlot vs Manehattan season 4; Applelosa vs Las Pegasus. A supermarket in Ponyvile? But everytime anyone brings it up you got retards knee jerking about lasers in Pinkie's dream sequence back in season two. Anyone who can't tell the difference in lore setting between the earlier seasons and now should be shot. The problem won't get better by ignoring it. Soon there'll be not difference between Eqg world and Equestria.
>>
>>30351681
Anon, ignoring it is all you can do. We're getting to the point where the fandom is split between people who recognize this for what it is, and people who want to believe pony is still the same show if you turn your brain off and don't listen to anything you think of.

Never mind that looking too deeply into the show and asking a lot of questions about the setting and the lore is functionally how the fandom started.

You could also come up with a billion things to explain the bullshit that is the Changeling reformation. If this shit catches you, causes you to think in the middle of the episode "Wait, what the shit", and then doesn't resolve itself, it's a fucking problem.

The only way to watch the show now is to not think about things. If something happens, you take the exposition about it at its face value. If they don't exposit about it, then ignore it. Don't say anything. Don't think about it.

Not the same guy, but I want to know if I'm understanding this, or at least understanding what is or isn't out of place. Pic is from "Green isn't your color" At one scene you have an old Camera, just like Rarity was using the Old Sewing machine, or like other ponies using old phonographs. Then later in the same episode, the ponies are using digital cameras, and neither fail to imply how they use it either. Is it out of place or not?

my bad. thats happening more often lately.

>>30354781
I might be able to explain the discrepancy there.

There are many older cameras that to this day vastly outperform digital cameras in terms of picture quality. Photo Finish would naturally use the best thing she could get her hooves on, without regard for the fact that a more modern camera would be more convenient.

First and foremost she cares about quality and she'll willing to lug around that giant old monstrosity becuase she knows it gets exactly the kind of pictures she wants and she knows exactly how it works.
>>
>>30354956
How they use the camera was more of an after thought, I just wanted to know why they didn't use some kind of camera that's older than digital since Season was apparently trying so hard to be old fashioned.
>>
>>30355018
This is somewhat true, but it didn't seem like her camera "acted" like an old camera. I don't know for sure but I thought those old Cameras take some time in between shots, and she didn't even add anything for proper lighting so quality wasn't a thing when taking pictures of fluttershy.

Besides, my argument was that ponies were using Cameras in at least the late 80s and 90s, in a cartoon that is "suppose" to be old fashioned.

Here are rules.
If it's funny, it's in.

If it's recent, then no. Unless Pinkie or Discord do it. Then it's funny.
