Button Mash appreciation thread
>>42648937He's literally meeeeeeee!
>>42642904agreed. trying to get commission where button rapes his mom + grows her tits. too bad all the good writefags are gone
>>42649441>picrelHonestly, you can't judge him. Just look at his mom!
>>42649446>grows her titsBut she already... Oh, you have a hyper fetish.
>>42652001yup. milk factory cream heart
>>42642884If you have hots and some serious boner for Swibble then you simply make your own, even way more cuter OC. Simple as. Jan stole this background colt for his own ulterior needs. Well contratulations, Jan. Your plan backfired anyway and now your "OC" is one, big Oedipus complex/incest material in the fandom. We barely see any SweetieMash these days (for a good reason). Now it's just Button dicking his whore of a mother art in every possible Button Mash file uploaded on Derpibooru. That or also being faggot with his dick-buddy Rumble. Not even Twital's pitiful revival of Button's Adventures will save any dignity that was left for this background character. Game overrrrr! kek
>>42654449I never claimed Button to be Jan's self insert "OC" or whatever, I was saying people unironically thought he was (and apparently even to this day still do.), I think Jan himself never cared that much about SweetieMash too since he kinda disregarded it after the Cease and Desist started happening, About the incest stuff it was bounded to happen since this fandom loves incest porn so damn much, now Button Mash content in the big 2025 is rare yes but not nonexistent, once a month there will be someone to upload some cute Button Mash fanart so Button Mash fans can feast on the bread crumbs of content that don't involve him plaping his mother.
>>42655102They can also feast on the content of him feasting on his mother.
I'd like to forcibly self-insert myself in Sweetie Belle if you know what I mean.
>>42655225I left it somewhat clear that we lack button mash content that isn't him doing his mom, that one we still have quite a lot and it just keeps on coming.
>>42655645>it just keeps on comingIt sure does!
>>42655236who wouldn't?
How dare you.
>>42657994wat
>>42659961At this point I'm half-convinced someone's just using a markov chain bot on this board.
>>42659961Judging from the flag, I'd say that Sunset Shimmer ships Button Mash and Sweetie Belle and is offended by OP's claim that they're a forced self-insert pairing. Maybe in EqG world, she tries to play matchmaker between EqG Button and EqG Sweetie.
>>42659989ahh ok thanks
>>42649441post selfie if he's literally you

So, I must ask a question:Dark Brown Button Mash or Light Brown Button Mash?Former seems to get more art, but I assume that's just because that's how he looked in Jan's stuff.Latter is what the show used in every appearance after H&H Day.I'm more partial to light brown Button, mostly because the dark brown is a really yucky, slightly greenish brown; "shit brown" as I tend to call it.Also the light brown is essentially "more canon" due to repeated use in the show proper, IMO.

>>42674849I was thinking the same thing, there needed to be a joke in the end with one of them being grossed out at the idea of love.
>>42674849>>42675300This. Along with Button acting more like a simp. Oh, and a C&D joke as well.
>>42675300Maybe for Button Mash and Scootaloo. I think sincere romance is 100% in character for Sweetie Belle. The way I see it going is Button would be the one to chicken out and to hide his feelings under a layer of macho disgust, and Sweetie would get defensive and call him out, leading to the two bickering. The other cmc facehoof, iris shot out to credits.

>>42642844>arcade machinesOh so electricity and TV exist?
>>42680180yes?
>>42680180We see electric lights all the time, ESPECIALLY during Hearths Warming.Heck, someone (offscreen) flips a lightswitch on in Episode 1.Vinyl's music equipment is clearly electric-based, and has some cabling.We see a hydroelectric dam in Mysterious Mare-Do-Well.Even the PIE FAMILY is hooked into the power grid, as evidenced by their Hearths Warming lights.There's also a background pony with three light bulbs as her CM (Electric Sky).However, the arcade machines are still the primary evidence that CRT display technology and (early) microprocessors exist.As for telephones, there's an implied usage in Somepony to Watch Over Me, we see a midcentury rotary one on a desk in Rarity Takes Manehattan, and we see an old candlestick one in the Ponyville antique shop in Uncommon Bond.(Interestingly, the one we see in Rarity Takes Manehattan would've first come into service in the 1950s, when the last of the candlestick phones were being retired.)Also in said antique shop, we see a ~1940s era AM radio on a shelf.The last two points would indicate that some notable time has passed since (essentially) the 1940s/1950s in Equestria.That being said, all of this leads me to believe that FiM is set sometime in the late 70s or early 80s.
>>42681696So would Creaturequestria be modern times?
>>42681696the dam just existing very nearby ponyvile was such a retarded idea the writers made up

>>42702214looks boring, would be better if it was a pony version of Metal Slug 3
>>42702298I wonder why did the writers tease even with Rumble x Sweetie Belle, despite the fact it's not as widespread in the fandom as Rumble x Scoots. I mean, we don't see Tender Taps on this chart for instance, but Chipcutter instead and even Snips and Snails for cryin' out loud.
>>42702350I mean they needed some colts to be added in the chart, but hey Pipsqueak is there, I remember him being shipped with Sweetie Belle way back in the early fandom.

>>42703868>Bloom has the colt that just looks like a boy scootalooHmmm
Who wouldn't force self-insert themselves into Swibbles though
>>42685367>what does he doLearn to code maybe. It starts when he tries hacking a game, then goes down a rabbit hole and decides he wants to code games himself. A few small projects to start off, then it becomes a borderline obsession of his. (Unless he rage quits that is.)
>>42694977Yeah, some fashion doesn't really line up, but it's not like the writers actively had a specific year in mind, so whatever year I pick isn't gonna be a perfect fit.Also, Teenage Cheerilee is especially broken. (And I'm calling her Teenage Cheerilee because her specific outfit style was more late 80s/early 90s than exclusively 80s.) The foals seem to have no memory of this fashion, implying it fell out of style over a decade ago, putting the show ~2005 or later, buuuut...where are personal computers? Cellular phones? The internet? MP3 Players? Technology was too integrated into life by that point for it to just be "off screen" all the time.Cheerilee's discussion is also broken WITHIN canon. Pic rel shows that the foals would've been around 4 or 5 (based on Apple Bloom's birth requirements) when she still wore her mane like that, so many SHOULD remember that fashion to some extent and find it more normal. Pic rel ALSO shows us that Cheerilee is a freaking liar when she says that everypony wore their manes like that, because NOPONY ELSE IS.Ultimately though, most FiM fashion is pretty timeless; the technology more consistently pushes things towards a specific decade.Therefore, if I have to pick one option, I'll pick the tech, and just say Cheerilee would've actually been dressed like a hippie, or that she was wearing some utterly WACKY attire for 1974.Still, any way you slice it there will be problems. For 70s/80s, some technology like phones, televisions, and radios should probably be seen a lot more, trains shouldn't be steam, and some fashion needs adjustment. For 2000s or 2010s, take the previous statement about tech, add in way more things, and crank the frequency we see them up to 11. For 50s/60s, get rid of arcade cabinets, Vinyl's fancy music equipment, make the trains not steam, and adjust fashion, but make phones, TV, and radio appear frequently. For 20s-40s, do the same as the previous (except TV), but take the AM radio & candlestick phone out of the Ponyville antique shop, dial back the Hearths Warming lights, get the Pie family off the power grid, and unbuild some of Manehattan. For 1910s and older, remove arcade cabinets, the fancy music equipment, visible phones, visible radio, have very little Hearths Warming lights, massively unbuild Manehattan, get rid of the hydro dam, and there's probably more I'm missing.In other words, pick a technological era, and make the necessary adjustments to stick with it.My choice is the late 70s/early 80s.

>>42706540only if you knew
>>42705137He would probably be so excited to major computer science in college and then wanting to kill himself a few classes into it. (rage quiting life)
>>42681696 >>42705710>My choice is the late 70s/early 80s.WAIT, you are telling me that G4's tech level is of when the franchise started in 1981?, my god...
>>42707340It was entirely unintentional on the show's part, but that's ultimately where it seems to roughly land.Very ironic indeed.As for exact year, I just went super-even and said S1E1 takes place in June 1980, with Best Gift Ever being December of 1982.Now of course, one would probably ask why I'm using IRL years and not like, year 1000-1002.There are a few reasons:1) It's easier.2) I've always hated the Nightmare Moon defeat as an epoch split. It's such a minor event in the grand scheme of things, so I highly doubt ponies would suddenly switch the calendar there.3) I think the MOST likely candidate for an epoch split is actually Grogar's defeat. The "father of monsters" is probably the one who reshaped Equestria's planet into the magical world we know it as today, and likely ruled through terror for thousands of years. Gusty the Great's defeat of him would be an absolute seismic shift in the world order, forever changing the path of history by setting the "lower species" free. A moment far more befitting of counting the years since. That being said, considering we have basically no indication of when he ruled, other than it being further back than any other villain's attempt at conquering Equestria, we can easily just say he was defeated ~1,980 years before the series began. June 1980 P.L. (Post Liberation [not quite the exact Latin, but it'd probably be often translated into Ponish as such]).Also, yes, this means the Mane 6 are Boomers.
>>42707827Do they ever use Gregorian months in the show or did you use them for simplicity's sake? Because considering Equestria somehow has four solstices in a year instead of the normal amount of two, Equestria probably has another system or double the amount of months in a year, where they go through all the seasons two times to complete a year. This way the abundant amount of Hearth's Warming Eves in that short time frame would be more feasible, if they have two winters in a year.
>>42707916"All Transcripts On a Single Page" comes in handy once again!First of all, lemme refute the "5+ seasons a year thing".In the very first episode, Mayor Mare literally describes that day as the "longest day of the year", which can't really mean that there's multiple days.Additionally, Nightmare Night, Hearths Warming/Winter, and the Grand Galloping Gala have all been described using the phrase "[x day/night] of the year".We also know that Seasons 1-3 takes place in a single year. In "Princess Twilight Sparkle", Celestia talks about how she's actually looking forward to the Summer Sun Celebration, due to Luna being back.This is technically backed up by there being only ONE instance of each holiday while Twilight is a unicorn.Therefore, there is only set of seasons per year. This also means that episode production order isn't canonical order - some shuffling is required.(I would also like to note that shuffling could allow for only three Hearth's Warmings over the course of the show, depending on whether one considers "Eve" to not always be taken literally, and if [in "The Hearth's Warming Club"], you assume Twilight let the Student 6/Gallus go home after all. [Presumably Gallus just went with one of the others.] We at least know there's an odd amount of Hearth's Warmings, because after the S2 one, the first and last have the Apples/Pies at the opposite family's farm [they alternate every year].)NOW. To answer the MONTH QUESTION:In "The Equestria Games", Applejack says Spike "Made [her] sit up proud like a cornstalk in August!"This is only time in all of G4 that a month is directly called out by name, INCLUDING Equestria Girls.(Yes, Gregorian/Julian months are more canon to FiM than EQG.)Additionally, Junebugs are referenced a few times in FiM, including a pony named such.
bumped the controller
>>42642844>too young for Cheerilee
>>42708125Four solstices would not necessarily mean that both northern solstices have to have the same solar declination. The solstice of the Summer Sun Celebration could still be the longest day, while the other northern solstice, that would then either happen in the Winter or in a second Summer-like equivalent season, could be just be another extreme point in the solar declination; it wouldn't even have to be the second longest day in a year. And because of Student Counsel, there has to be four solstices and thus four equinoxes in Equestria.So you are assuming, I guess, that A Hearth's Warming Tail takes place before Hearthbreakers in a way that Hearthbreakers was moved to Season 6? And that the Hearth's Warming Club and Best Gift Ever depict the same Hearth's Warming season? I think it would be very weird for Twilight to invite the student over to Hearth's Warming at her castle and for the students to cheer at that idea, just to then have them all decline the offer off-screen. Hearth's Warming Club and Best Gift Ever are not even problems timeline-wise because Seasons 8 and 9 are probably the longest time we spend in Equestria, not on-screen, but in-universe - so two Hearth's Warmings aren't a problem there - they could definitely be two separate ones.The Hearthbreakers begins with Pinkie Pie wishing Twilight a "Happy Hearth's Warming Eve", so this is the first time that they met that day - so A Hearth's Warming Tail can definitely not take place on that very exact day. They then leave for the Rock Farm, sleep there, and celebrate Hearth's Warming Day together with Pinkie, Applejack, Apple Bloom, Big Mac, and Granny Smith being out of the picture for appearing at the castle for A Hearth's Warming Tail. A Hearth's Warming Tail could thus only take place in the same winter if your assumption of them using the term Eve for multiple days before Hearth's Warming Day is correct and A Hearth's Warming Tail takes place a day before Hearth's Warming Eve / Hearthbreakers. That could maybe be the case. Considering wishing somebody a Merry Christmas several days before Christmas also is not unusual.
>>42710566>I think it would be very weird for Twilight to invite the student over to Hearth's Warming at her castle and for the students to cheer at that idea, just to then have them all decline the offer off-screen.Well, consider that in "A Hearth's Warming Tail", we see a giant party (a total opposite of how Twilight & Spike are shown celebrating the actual day before in "Hearthbreakers") where the Pie family (besides Pinkie) isn't even present. Twilight clearly hosts a big town-wide party a little in advance.(And now that I say that, it's actually rather damming evidence that the phrase "Hearth's Warming Eve" can refer to the season as a whole. Hell, several ponies are even still decorating during the song.)Anyways, to get to the point: I imagine Twilight was inviting the Student 6 to the big party she throws a few days early. If "The Hearth's Warming Club" and "Best Gift Ever" happen in the same holiday season, then what likely happened is that the Student 6 attended Twilight's big party, after which she allowed them (well, Gallus more specifically, since he was the only one actually "grounded") to go home. I can't imagine Twilight would ACTUALLY want to keep the Student 6 from seeing their families during the holidays; would be very unfriendship if she did.>Hearth's Warming Club and "Best Gift Ever" are not even problems timeline-wise because Seasons 8 and 9 are probably the longest time we spend in Equestria, not on-screen, but in-universe - so two Hearth's Warmings aren't a problem there - they could definitely be two separate ones.Note that Season 8 is explicitly stated to be a single semester, which would put "The Hearth's Warming Club" right at the end of it...which just so happens to be where Best Gift Ever is placed in release order. Now yes, "Best Gift Ever" could be shuffled later (especially since it's possible an ENTIRE YEAR passed during Season 9 alone), but there isn't anything NECESSITATING that it be shuffled later. If anything, to keep the timeline more consistently tight, "The Summer Sun Setback" should be the one shuffled, shunting it to the front of the season when there's still a summer break happening.So, my proposed order for the Hearth's Warmings, assuming there's only 2 rather than 4:-"Hearth's Warming Eve (Episode)" - A day or few before Hearth's Warming #1.-"A Hearth's Warming Tail" - A day or few before Hearth's Warming #2.-"Hearthbreakers" - The eve & day of Hearth's Warming #2.-"The Hearth's Warming Club" - A few days before Hearth's Warming #3.-"Best Gift Ever" - The eve of Hearth's Warming #3.
>>42710658Sorry, assuming there's only 3 rather than 5.Was counting after the first episode, and then I put it in the list anyway.
>>42710658Season 8 takes place in one semester you say? <:)Non-Compete Clause shows the school having existed for nine months by that episode. That's an awful long semester... So, maybe evidence for there being more months in Equestria than on Earth... Since Spike does not have his wings in this episode, it cannot be shifted somewhere at the end of Season 8.Maybe I am misunderstanding, but if you are implying that the Hearth's Warming Club takes place after School Raze, that cannot be the case because Cozy Glow appears in that episode. Like I said, most of the in-universe time is spend in the last two seasons. Though, you are probably correct with saying that Twilight's offer is for before actual Hearth's Warming Eve or Day - that makes more sense.

>>42728903Button Mashing is most common in noobs who don't know how to play so they just press all the buttons at the same time hoping something will work out.
>>42729384Don't some games require you to button mash like some mini games in mario party, og RE4 and RE5 with the boulders and so on. Could be he's skilled in games in general than just a noob of the sorts.
>>42642844cute little foals
>>42723973And what will you do if I make a comic series where Button's one of the main characters, but I use the lighter colors he's seen with in every appearance since the first?
>>42730357As I said, won't buy it.
>>42730357Then again you're a fan artist not Hasbro.
>>42730405Do you pirate food?
>>42730968thats shoplifting and it's illegal
>>42731549It's only a crime if they caught you
>>42642859>why do they have arcade cabinetsSo they can scam fillies and manchildren (stallionfoals?) out of bits with impossible games, same as we did before valve invented lootboxes and battlepasses in the west.>why are they in the middle of a dirt patch 20 feet apartBecause ponyville is a backwater nowheresville where half the roads are dirt and grass.The library is a literal hollowed out tree in the middle of an unpaved square. 70% of ponyville township by land area is an apple orchard. Most of the houses have thatch roofs and you think they're going to waste money on an arcade for 4 cabinets? The school is a barn.
>>42642844off topic but i fucking hate when they introduce modern electrical objects and then just handwave away how they work. where's the electricity coming from? don't tell me it's magic, fuck you. I hate this shit so much. The show should not have higher tech, it should be generally and broadly pre-industrial era with like ONE train. Industrialization threatens the bespoke nature of ponyism. It's a good world because it's not pozzed with every problem that Uncle Ted warned us about.get the phones, video games, and dj booths out of mlp is what i'm saying basically
>>42731690the thing is that they have Manehattan which is too modern. Canterlot sure since the posh and noble people live there and build it more fancy medieval keeping in theme with ponyville being a backwater village but Manehattan is literally just new york.
>>42731690I like the tech. I don't get the autism over it either since it's been there since the start.
>>42731690Well I fucking love magitech. Any non-magic electricity comes from the Ponyville dam and underground cables. Industrialization fits the progressive nature of ponykind. It's a good world because colts and fillies can play Pac-Mare without worrying about some schizo ecoterrorist apeman blowing up their fun machines.
>>42732194It fucking shouldn't
>>42732194I remember the nitpicking when only s1 was out and it was bizarre to witness. Fantasy autists somehow thought they were watching Lord Of The Rings when we had latex and goggle wearing stunt teams and blow dryers referenced in episode 1, colored photo booths by 3, and joy buzzers by 5, while the history autists simply can't handle medieval and 80s tech overlapping in magical fiction. Twilight's mad science lab in Feeling Pinkie Keen broke them into calling season 1 not canon.
>>42642844Who are the two ponies in the background?
>>42733595your mom and your dad
>>42732265>>42731690>The show should not have higher techAs long as ponies remain culturally distinct from humans. Although I would love to see more of Equestrian life from before Luna's banishment. The medieval feels more grounded, and gets overshadowed in the modern era. Ofc the punishments for friendship lessons gone wrong might change the viewership ratings.

>>42732787Why? Because you want FiM to be something it isn't?

>>42742861"Sorry hornhead but this is real life, the mud chad gets the mare."
>>42733135I mean Twilight's equipment never really has shown up again. The most we get are mentions of biology and science as well as beakers and chemistry sets. The closest to modern science and tech. A side-thing is Dr. Hooves' steampunk science.

>>42744474I mean if you really want butt heads with other fans over your beliefs that scitwi was a throwaway gag, ponyville is the shire, and half of season 1 didn't happen, then by all means go wild.
>>42744474Having science equipment coexist with medieval stuff doesn't bother me so long as it's imaginative. Kinda takes me back to Humongous Entertainment computer games from childhood.

>>42751902cute
>>42741726Uh sure, yeah. totally.
>>42642844tf how is it forced like bro
>>42751714
>>42754196such a controversial stance on the matter...
>>42754196DID NUMGET REALLY JUST SAY THAT?!
>>42754623Yes.
>>42755351holy moly...
>>42754108What (OP) meant by "forced" is that the ship was hella popular back in the day, even though Button didn't had any "canon" relevance it still was one of the most popular ships with Sweetie Belle, I think the adequate term would be "overrated". (In my opinion it isn't since I love these two)
>>42756185The part I found forced was turning Sweetie Belle into a gamer to give them something in common. Plus Minecraft is zoomer cringe.
>>42756262What if she played Minecrap instead and built stuff with brown bricks instead?
>>42756185>I love these twoBut Button is a crybaby. Pretty much the main reason people like this ship is because it's a goofball/loser x pretty girl type of pairing. Plus, fans identify with Button only because he's a gamer. lmao>>42756262This.>>42756687Brown exactly like Button's fur? I could see that since they would remind her of him.
>>42754196numget approves of button mash
>>42757218no it's a cinemassarce reference not as in the coat
>>42757218
>>42757218>button is a crybaby.Button is a child, child character acts like a child, big shock somehow.Sweetie Belle also acts childish and throws tantrums sometimes because she is also a child.>people only like this pairing because it's loser/pretty girl type.I think there are more character traits to both Button Mash and Sweetie Belle that goes beyond what you suggested, I don't even exactly know what a pretty girl type is supposed to mean honestly, Swibble is pretty? Yeah but her appearance is not really part of her personality unlike her sister.>people only relate to button cause he is a gamer...yeah? that's true but so what? I don't know what you meant by this.
>>42758173I just don't think he deserves Swibble.
>>42758173He deserves Swibble.
My self-insert :D
>>42642859Arcade cabinets are a great pride for the earth ponies. Produced using magi-optical gem technology. Earth ponies use their earth magic to grow gems with specific properties useful for analog optical computers. They can make adders, multipliers, comparitors, intergrators, optical beam steering and shaping. And the most important gem, the holographic storage gem. This is a central component in arcade machines. Graphics and level data and collision maps are all stored in these gems. Pony arcardes are quite different to ours in terms of capability. Pony arcades don't have the deep level of interactivite complexity which is possible with software, but they are capaple of photo realistic full color graphics and even 3d using their holographic storage and optical compositing.
>>42759094Maybe that's why Button Mash likes video games so much, he is a earth pony supremacist proud of his species technological achievements!
>>42758173>I don't even exactly know what a pretty girl type is supposed to meanThey're all pretty to us, but Sweetie is the most stereotypical feminine girly girl of the cmc. You dismiss her appearance as insignificant, but how a character is presented matters. Her coat is virgin white like a Victorian noble, and her mane is pastel toy aisle colored curls. She dabbles in fashion and makeup. She sings, gets emotional, cooks (badly), and sews (badly). She's the most romantic, leading the charge on any such exploits. She's the good girl that wants to depend on authority figures in One Bad Apple. As a unicorn, she's predisposed to nonphysical work when she becomes reliant on magic. In any 80s movie she'd be "way out of that nerd's league". I know characters are complex and Sweetie likes getting dirty in the rain, but this is how she's meant to contrast with her tomboy friends.>Sweetie Belle also acts childishSure but: Filly crying because a bully took her clubhouse = cute damsel. Colt crying because a juicebox hurt his feelings = legally retarded.>>42759094This is pretty cool. Turns rock farmers into tech component producers, and can extend into explaining why crystal ponies have such an advanced looking empire despite being 1000 years displaced.
>>42759548nah he's just born a gamer just like us, wow!
>>42759572I wasn't trying to dismiss her appearance, I just didn't know what the other Anon mean't and just reduced her character to being pretty (which she is), but yeah I totally agree with you Sweetie is clearly the soft feminine girly type.
>>42756262Women can play games, you know?
>>42761631>no hoovesNot interested.
>>42761631impossible
>>42761631Mobile games don't count
>>42761631I didn't know they made dishwasher and laundry simulators.
>>42763253basically The Sims if you think about it.
>>42763489no the sims is a murder game where you remove the pool ladder and watch them drown and die
>>42764152Why are you like this?
>>42765503Devil.
>>42767072Polybius, we've been over this.
>>42767080If so, then why isn't he dead? Curious, liberal.
>>42767446He's just a good gamer that he won
>>42642844you forgot the gigachad image
>>42768075Button Mash is already a gigachad.
So many ships are just spur of the moment. Some are pretty good in chemistry, but I think most are just start off with the aesthetics and then build off of that. Then if there is no character, which is usually the case for background ponies, then headcanons are made based on what little information there is. That or the information is just made up for the sake of fiction and the ship. It can be fun, it can be cringe but that is the life of ships.
Buttons Plusbros... when will he deliver?
>>42769592hopefully soon, trust the plan
>>427699842 more weeks?
>>42770885yes
>>42769592Twital is too busy sitting on his ass all day scratching his balls to make a episode.
>>42642844I pointed this out on twitter and his fanboys had a big meltie
>>42771652sounds like you did too
>>42771663its okay Jan, foalcon is based
>>42771636I mean, he made a music video with Cream Heart recently that is supposed to be part of the series I think, but, well, no klvrika... so it is worthless.
>>42771652I bet you owned all those bigots over on Xitter sister
>>42771828My bigger take-away was that Jan still has fans in 2025. I guess all you need is to make a minecraft pony music video and you'll have retards slobbering your cock for life
>>42771846are you mad because you got no bitches? lmao
Here's a better ship, you Buttonfags.Sweetie digs jocks, not gamer losers. He'd rock her world.
>>42772563Sweetie Belle x whoever the fuck is that.wow muh shipperino...
>>42772626u mad :)
>>42772632It's ok anon, you can ship your niched rarepair all you want and no one will take that away from you, I will stick with sweetiemash tho.
>>42771652>>42771846the thought of Button Mash still being somewhat relevant in 2025 even though he is like a relic from the past mindrapes anon and send him in a frenzy ranting with randoms on Xitter and board, holy shit.huge buttonchads w
>>42772655She looks so bored and disinterested here. She's definitely getting some real stallion dick on the side.
button mash best colt
>>42772943Very true.
>>42772626>whoever the fuck is thatI mean, you've never heard about the most handsome colt in town and the colt who got coal on Christmas? Just look at his awesome mane, his strong jaw and athletic body. Sweetie would totally fall for him. Button is just a phase for her.
>>42773575That's a pretty cute colt.
>>42772563>>42773575I was looking around on the boorus about this colt and found out the original artist, looking up their profile I discovered this piece, looks like they are a Cozy Glow x Button Mash shipper? Kek.To be honest it's a fair exchange, Swibble can be with random baseball playing colt if Button gets a evil golly fillyfriend to "reform"
>>42774020I support that ship now, so cute!
>>42741726BUCKED
>>42772655Comfy, also I bet that Renamon makes Sweets jealous.>>42772705Yeah I can see Button Mash being a cuckold, that's usually what happens when you watch too much porn and I wouldn't put it past him.
>>42774020>>42774286
>>42772563>it's good because it's my self insert instead
>>42774957stfu
>>42774967Nope, john baseball or whatever that pony's name is lacks any real talent, he's never even shown playing the ball, for all we know his real talent might just be being a host to a sports podcast
>>42775032He did attend a baseball game once.
>>42775072100% sports podcaster, that colt is built to memorize stats and crash out after Ponyville loses game 7 in humiliating fashion against Appleloosa
>>42775072Button was in the same game as well, they should be friends.
>>42775101>they should be friendsAnd share Sweetie?
>>42775101Oh weird, Button's NOT on a date with Ruby Pinch in this one.
>>42775101That's not the real Button though.

idgi the forced stuff
>>42776924This anon is the impostor.
Why does Button Mash mash the buttons?
>>42778957'Cause he's a gamer.
>>42778957he's doin your mom
>>42778957why not?
>>42772697best colt

>>42781751literally us
>>42782305Not me.
>>42781751what vidya? super mario world?
>>42781751and smashing sweeb's pussy
>>42783266The baseball colt is smashing Sweeb's pussy, not Loser Mash.
>>42756185>>42754108OP here. It's forced because it's inauthentic. It ultimately amounts to "he's just like me! he's a nerdy guy who likes games who has a a crush on the silly pretty girl. maybe that can be me and my crush one day!" and Sweetie's personality has to be assassinated in order to pair her with Button Mash. Button Mash's fan portrayals are also obnoxious.
>>42783486You claim inauthenticy because it's a "self-insert" pairing, this argument has been thrown around so many times with almost every popular straight ship in this board that it lost it's meaning, you also claims it "assasinates" Sweetie's character just to be paired with Button, which is not true, where is the assasination? making her like video games? there is another popular Sweetie Belle ship that does way worse assasination of her character, back on the self insertion "He's just like me!" argument it just shows your ignorance as you claim every sweetiemash shipper is a guy who likes video game that projects themselves onto Button, ignoring the fact this ship has a large female following as well, example being pic related was made by a woman, do they self insert themselves on Sweetie Belle or something? Now on finding Button Mash obnoxious that's like just your opinion, not a argument against the ship OP.
>>42783634>there is another popular Sweetie Belle ship that does way worse assasination of her characterGeez, I'm dying to know which ship are you talking about.
I force self-insert into all fillies, cry about it.
>>42642844To really break down this ship, their first and only scene together involved Sweetie nonchalantly debating on shipping him off with her teacher. Her dissing him as too young also implies his lack of maturity isn't her idea of a perfect stallion. It's practically negative shipping fuel.
>>42781751You can see in his determined face, dude's on a mission to finish this game and then spend the rest of the weekend with his beloved Swibbles
>>42783710You mean, the baseball colt gets to spend the rest of the weekend with Swibbles.
>>42783680>dissing him as too young also implies his lack of maturity. your reading comprehension can't be this bad Anon.
>>42783664Isn't it obvious?>!it is spikebelle!<
>>42783892>spikebelleThis ship is even worse and feels like a waste because Spike isn't cute at all and Swibbles serves as nothing more but a love substitute for him after moving on from Rarity.
>>42783710based
>>42783880You don't read a cartoon, my so intelligent anon. Yes, maturity can be tied to either physical age or experience. Yes, those standards can apply to Sweetie as well as Cheerilee in context.
BUTTON MASH BEST COLT
>>42785490true
>>42783486You're reading way too much into it to the point you're exposing your own personal issues
many such cases tbf
>>42642844I would self insert. IYKWIM. https://derpibooru.org/images/3258807
>>42783892I really want to refute this, giving my reasons for seeing the opposite (that Sweetiemash wouldn't work out, while Spikebelle is basically one of the strongest parings for those two), but I'm not in the mood to type out a damn page right now. Maybe on another day.
>>42786588No one but Mash's mom is gonna put up with all that gaming. He will live in her basement and fuck her until puberty. Then she will kick him out.
>>42784872But in the context of the episode it so clearly applies for Cheerilee, the crusaders come to conclusion Big Mac is the best fit for HER, Sweetie dismissing Button as "too young" is clearly presented as his and Cheerilee's age difference would make the two dating problematic, not his maturity, literally the next scene she goes to a funeral and state that the priest is "way to old" to date.In a later hearts and hooves episode Button is even suggested by the crusaders to being Sweetie Belle's possible secret admirer, but wait wasn't he way to immature for her? this can't be rightWhile on the topic of the episode you probably think the reason Swibble got sad at the end wasn't because she was fooling herself and didn't had a actual secret admirer but it was because Big Mac didn't want to date a filly kek.
>>42786948>the context clearly...It's your interpretation bro, speak your truth. I for one don't think a girl can pick a suitor for another girl without any bias. How do they know Cheerilee isn't a smell fag that'd go nuts for the too smelly stallion's musk?>According to this season 8 Haber pet OC episode...I knew that exact picture would come up, kek. Zero fucks given.>you think the reason Swibble got sad at the end wasn't because she was fooling herself and didn't had a actual secret admirer but it was because Big Mac didn't want to date a filly kek.That's a neat theory for that episode. Mind if I steal it?
>>42786466Does Rarity know?
>>42786948I mean consider that they put Snips & Snails on the chart, even though later, when Sweetie asks them, she's *hoping* they aren't the ones who sent her the pie.The chart says literally nothing about Sweetie's preferences.
>>42787081>"please say, no, please say no, please say no"Sweetie has good taste, knows her preferences and knows too well which colts aren't worth her pussy. I give her credit here.
>>42787971Snails is low key cool and powerful. Snips gets cheerleader pussy. Sweebs sucks at hypergamy.
>>42788504Snips becoming a passionate cheer coach was the chad-est character development. Conversely, Snails being an idiot savant was the lamest cliche.
