Yeah that idea is really silly in my book too. Classic case of what I was discussing in the last thread. Fans (really its not just bronies) love to take dangling strings then tie them together because of course that will be it! And occaisonally they might be right but if I've seen anything its that writers spend time expanding weaving in new threads not "perfectly" tying everything together in one convenient knot.

Second because the writer's room likely said "But what will she do in the story?" and fumbled for an answer.

(Hah take that spoilers, I DEFY YOU!)

I call it the "Trixie issue". Basicly, they continualy pump out interesting charecters and locations that the fans willingly forget that are one-offs, and then attempt to shove in said charecters into every theory afterwords. Hence, ideas that Candence is Trixe and other silly, childish ideas. "ignores thread title"

If she starts talking in third person you're in trouble.

Nah, it's when she starts speaking in rhyme:

I'm an evil enchantress
I do evil dances
And when he looked deep in my eyes
I put him in trances
Then what next will shall I do?
I'll just mix up an evil brew
And I'll gobble him up
In a big tasty stew!
On the other hand, a rhyming princess would be rather amusing.

Don't know that Trixie is the worst case, certainly she is vastly over-represented in fan works but in actual speculation... then again I don't like that particular pony and so tend to ignore whatever I see of her.

Are you kidding? I have seen a uncountable amount of suggestions from other sites that Candince is actualy her, or that the Flim-Flam brothers are her minons.

So on a whim I click on EqD's link to a podcast with Tara Strong. And now I'm only just starting to follow voice acting, so imagine my surprise when the I pick up that the host is Yakko Warner... oh Celestia my nostalgia hit the roof when Rob Paulsen said "Heeeellllooo Bronies!" in that voice among other things.

Check it out if you have time to kill, its over an hour in length.

It includes all of the Lovecraftian horrors ever- existing and/or not- rolled up into a katamari, catapulted by a see-saw through a miniature golf course with a windmill made out of the pattern, which is being infinitely collapsed on itself to serve as a cherry being topped with the hottest hot sauce known to cartoondom, which is being served to a dying World Tree whilst Odin and Loki do a square dance to a medley beling played by a Jug Band family of Worzen to keep away Evil Otto from feasting on the source of all knowledge, which is hanging from a tuba, and I cannot stop thinking about this skejfgos ldfgpw whjqw sdvnx
