The only unfortunate message I saw in that episode was "whining is awesome and effective!" For a show aimed at little kids, I don't think that was the best way to teach the real lesson they were going for.

[greenvelvetcake]

...The real lesson should have been, 'Don't try to escape danger using your words rather than violence, wait for someone to save you!'?

Y'all realize the people Rarity was whining offensively at kidnapped her, right? They were the bad guys?

[(Anonymous)]

No, but I don't think the fact that she was only whining as an act to get out of danger came across very well? Also, if you're really in danger in real life, trying to get out of it by being clever and using your words is very risky and it usually is the safest bet to "wait for someone to save you."

But still, if they did want to show her using words to get herself out of that situation, there are plenty of ways to use words effectively without whining.

[(Anonymous)]

Eh, I think kids usually get the message as long as the message is clearly stated at some point. MLP does a pretty good job of wrapping it up; my 5-year-old got what he was supposed to get from it. When I asked what it was about, he said, "Her friends thought she couldn't take care of herself, but she could."

just goes to show how sometimes adults overthink things.

[(Anonymous)]

Aw. That's cute.

Wait, does that sound sarcastic? Because I mean it, she sounds sweet.

[shinyhappypanic]

....side-eyeing you. if that's the only message you got from it, I have to wonder how carefully you were watching it.

[(Anonymous)]

what other messages were there?

that seemed like the big one

[(Anonymous)]

She wasn't whining, she was COMPLAINING.
Thiiis is whiiining:
waaah wahhh this cartoon is raining my kids wrong wahhh wahh I'm too lazy to talk with my kids about the contents of the shows they watch wahh this harness is too tiiiiight

[(Anonymous)]

*raining=raising

THIS IS THE CORRECT ANSWER

[blunderbuss]

[cakemage]

A+, Anon. A+.

[insanenoodlyguy]

Does this episode really need rarity to teach us a lesson? It was too busy being awesome and funny, perhaps.

[(Anonymous)]

It's a kid's show, everyone assumes they are meant to teach lessons.

[(Anonymous)]

Considering that's the format of the show -- "What I learned about friendship today!" moralizing -- I'd say that is basically the point.

[greenvelvetcake]

NO

EVERY EPISODE MUST HAVE AT LEAST FIVE DIFFERENT MEANINGS

THIS IS A SHOW ABOUT PASTEL PONIES. DO YOU THINK THE WRITERS ARE JUST FUCKING AROUND? CHILDREN'S LIVES ARE AT STAKE.

[shinyhappypanic]

definitely one of my favourite episodes. I wasn't aware that some people took it that way..that is pretty annoying.

[(Anonymous)]

OH NO SOMEONE TOOK AWAY A DIFFERENT MEANING THAN YOU DID!

KILL IT WITH FIRE.

[netbug009]

DEAR PRINCESS CELESTIA,

JUST BECAUSE YOU'RE LADY-LIKE DOESN'T MAKE YOU WEAK.

[chardmonster]

I mean seriously there is an in-show mechanic at the end of every episode to go DEAR PRINCESS AUDIENCE THIS IS THE PRIMARY THEME OF TODAY'S EPISODE

[(Anonymous)]

The only thing I learned from this episode was when the dog puts the bridle on Rarity and I learned I actually do have a pony-play fetish.

Goodnight, everybody!

[chardmonster]

[(Anonymous)]

the only real complaint I have with this epie is TPTB totally denying the screamingly obvious nod to David Bowie.

[otakugal15]

Wait what? How? Cause it WAS blindingly obvious!!
