Moe pls. You're too excited for this one ^:)
I'd be happy if we got a not shit Spike episode, but I'm not holding my breath
Just give me my Rarilight dose and the rest of the episode can fuck off
Finally, I made it here on time
If dubs this episode won't be shit
Post yfwit's actually good
Would you kiss spike?
>>27095549
I-it's going to be good right? If I keep my expectations low, I can't be disappointed, right?

Rarity's presence is what saves both of these episodes. Let's hope her presence in this week's episode will also save it.

It's difficult to let go of expectations after you've already dedicated your entire life to a cause.

>>27095674
UUUUU
>>27095684
Here's your 4(you)
How many bings lads?
Spike was good in the opener. Maybe it was a sign that he will be good this season. This is what I keep telling myself. I figure maybe if I repeat it a lot eventually I will believe it
>>27095689
34 bings
>>27095689
Thirty-four bings

Shit confirmed
>>27095549
Thanks for the usual sticky mods.
>>27095674
For her
I'm honestly confident this episode will be good. It's not like they could do as bad as princess spike, right?
What I've gathered is that the majority like Spike, but not his episodes.
>>27095708
>her
>>27095659
>2016
>unironically saying "kek"
>>27095715
I used to think that there was no way they could do as badly as in Spike at Your Service. I was wrong.
>>27095654
I have tried and he still manages to disappoint me. I don't think I can lower my expectations more than I have now.
>>27095708
How long until the usual?Two hours maybe?
>>27095715
compare this episode with Dragon Quest
PS was Jim and Neal having a laugh in their jobs
they only had one by the way and they failed at making comedy
>>27095717
That's how it's been since day 1, the ones who had a blind hatred for spike were trolls and shitposters. Spikes best moments is when he is a supporting character like in the season 6 premier.
So will we finally have an episode end with the standard theme or are we going with fancy every ep
>>27095715
u stoopid
>>27095718
Does that look like a guy to you?
>>27095721
Already out for another girl dragon

>even the sticky removed poniflix
>>27095725
Already done
>>27095725
I'm betting on 45 minutes tops
>>27095732
Special ending every week to orchestral finale.please god
This is it /mlp/, Spike's final stand. 6 years of autism and it has come down to this. Let us break the cycle. I ask you to give your energy, let him achieve his dream so that one day we can achieve ours.

Hey man, /mlp/ has confidence for this one. They might finally kill the autism known as sparity for good.
>>27095784
Why don't u just post the exercise here? Maybe someone will solve it for you.

Trump is getting votes, the problem now is that the cuckservatives are trying to steal the election from him by preventing a public vote. Rat Cruz took Colorado because the cucks there closed all public polls and gave the delegates to him without a single vote.
This episode will end the spike abuse in the show?
>>27095971
>>27095983
Thanks, recognized the corridor of cupcakes and thought this guy straight up stole it, he made it so its all good.
>>27095963
Portugal had a lot of towel factories or something like that, so they were cheap as hell and Spaniards used to buy a lot of them every time they went there on vacation.

shit that's a creepy spike
also, it's a spike episode. What do you expect
I won't deny, first time since the Season started that I'm actually hyped for an episode, even if it's a Spike episode
