Sorry if I’m sounding like a jerk.

They are not drinking anything alcoholic. Unpasteurized juice can naturally ferment and gain a minuscule amount of alcohol (less than .1% volume). Which makes this whole thing redundant.

Seriously! The only real reason why someone would like a license to drink JUICE in a bar is because of the social atmosphere. Remember, there’s no Facebook in Equestria. The 13+ bar is a place a gathering and socializing IRL. And there won’t be any fights or sexual harassment because NO ONE IS DRINKING AND GETTING DRUNK.

To Apple Bloom, this place is a stress reliever. What with the Scootaloo situation, and experiencing her longtime friends slowly crack down. The poor girl need to relax! There’s another way of relieving stress, but that’s not relevant right now…

The point is that they’re drinking juice in the most convoluted fashion.

If all they’re doing is drinking juice then why all the convolutedness with licenses and guest vouchers and .01% alcohol and stuff? Why not just say they’re hanging out in a non alcoholic juice bar?

You’re talking to the same guy who completely rewrote Equestrian history just to make a blog more interesting. I have no logic or laws. I just come up with this bullshit and apply it.

Granted, this may be jumping the shark a bit. But it’s too late. The word of Mod has been written down for the people to indulge. :/

mmf! MMF! MMMMMM ;=;

NO.

What the fuck is even going on here? Is Scootaloo being turned into a Changling? God damn it, just stop. Changlings aren’t fucking grimdark.
What is that blue circle on the right? Is that supposed to be a hoof?
Wow. That’s. That’s sickening.
Don’t get me fucking started on Scootaloo’s hair. It looks like a toupee gone wrong.
Ugh.

That feeling when someone makes a criticism without reading the blog…

For everything else - The blue circle is supposed to be her clenched hoof in an “I’ll get you yet” fashion - sorry if it’s not very clear, and I’m sorry about her hair - I’m not that great an artist and this is what it looked like when I started it, people I talked to told me it was better to be consistent rather than accurate.

Thank you for the constructive criticisms in there. I’ll try to do better.

So I took a look that this blog. Turns out, it focuses on pony R34 and grimdark blogs. It’s against those two things. I personally don’t give a fuck.

They probably thought this post was grimdark. It really isn’t. Still isn’t an excuse for being assholes, even if it was a misunderstanding. If you really hate shit, why must you be so fucking vocal about it! What will it do, besides piss off people like me?

So, ignore them. Your blog is great and I love every post (including this one! XD).

(Not to sound mean spirited but) Congratulations on inventing an overly complicated legal maneuver in order to get Applebloom and Pinchy drinking! (but seriously good job, I was worried Applebloom would get drunk illegally and it makes sense with Sweetie's nihilist outlook that they be participating in more adult activities too match there personalities. Keep doing an awesome job!)

That’s me! Always making up ways for kids to bypass potentially criminal actions! :D

At least AB wants a simple cider instead of Pinchy’s 0.04% hard cider. Someone’s gotta be the designated driver responsible pony.

Restricted Adulthood in PC

In Equestria, the legal age to drink alcohol is 18. However, restricted adults, or ponies ages 13 and up are allowed in special bars and are allowed to order drinks, but with very little or no alcohol. They must show their restricted ID to enter. 5 vouchers to bring non-adults in a bar are available to holders.

Being a restricted adult allows to you emancipate, run a business, earn disability payments from the government, and leave the province without parental consent. It does mean that you may be required to attend jury duty, pay taxes, and be tried as an adult in a court of law.

Also, your parents or legal guardian must agree to apply you for an ID.

Sweetie, Rumble, and Pinchy have the ID.

Bitch please. You don’t need Photoshop when you know a bit of HTML.

Hey man, I'm a huge fan of your art. Would you be cool with hanging out on Skype? If you have one that is.

Asked by melosurreal

Sure!

My Skype name is “dtcx97” in case anyone wants to add me.

Pinchy’s design in Post Crusade. Since her and Dinky shared the same mane design (along with Tootsie Flute), I decided to mix it up a bit.

1 Year Later

(X-post from Deviantart)

Exactly one year ago, I watched Feeling Pinkie Keen, my first MLP episode ever. At this point, I knew the characters and key fandom facts. But never seen them in canon action.

It wasn’t a great idea to start off from the middle. So I saw the pilot. I was hooked from minute 5.

Being a brony has been an amazing experience. Who knew that so many people would be fans of a show made for 9-12 year old girls? I’ve met so much friendly and encouraging people and made good friends. Though I expressed my qualms about this fandom sometimes, nothing will ever push me away from it.

Not bad, being that this is the first fandom I’ve ever been active in.

To you guys on DA and to the guys on Tumblr, I just want to say thank you for making my first year here a blast. It really has been amazing.

Here’s to a year, and many more to come.
