Imagine making it to Equestria, but after the initial novelty of a human being in Equestria wears off, you're still a loser.

I'm a loser here because of circumstances outside my control. Over there I could just breathe and be free to exist.

Since Equestria actually values kindness and someone being loving rather than the opposite like in this hellscape, no.

With the Diamond Dawgz?
>>

You can't be anonstallion. Once you reach equestria you won't be anonymous anymore. So you can't just call yourself anonstallion. That's stupid. That's like being the only anonymous in equestria. Everyone will know it's you. Stop dreaming. They will call you something green dolt

And you know what they say about big feet...

>>42890335
What do you mean by that?
>>
oh boy... and what would anon do if he will be hated by the ponies when he arrives? No guarantees ponies will become magically attached to anon when he arrives, which most HiE anons believe. I think just straight up kys, or go back to the real world. Because being hated by people who you love hurts bad.
>>
>>42890304
Yeah but they also value things like having a job and being generally productive in society
>>
>>42890346
I'd be very surprised if ponies outright hated an anon without getting to know him first, though I could see ponies being wary. The big thing is just that the average anon thinks they'll magically stop being reflexively hostile and offensive once they're in Equestria and I don't think they're correct in that assessment.
>>
>>42890346
Then these anons could learn a thing or two from me. I'm sadomasochist, bitch.
>>
>>42890348
Difference is their society actually is worth being productive in. Being a "decent upstanding member of the community" means literally nothing here, when someone who literally murdered another person is demanded to be set free because of his good looks. No, human society in its current form gives beta males absolutely zero reason to invest their time and effort into it.
>>
>>42890351
I can absolutely guarantee that I'd think twice before being a dick to a pony. Sure, I'm accustomed to thinking mean things about others, but it's misanthropy, not... misequiny?

I mean, fuck, just because you're physically different does that mean you gotta be something real special? The G1 poners went and got the meegan because they thought she'd be something real special, and sure she tried, but her ass could hardly even land a hit the exact moment she got there. Needless to say she was a loser when she started out too.

And you know what? The ponies kept following her. She knew she was a loser but that didn't stop her from quitting. That bitch once stood up to a one-eyed tarantula the size of a fucking house.

Get over yourself, find your waifu, fuck her brains out. End of story.

I don't think ponies would realistically be completely hostile. I think they'd be a bit more cautious and on edge than most HiE stories usually go into(except the more edgy ones) at first, but seeing as the ponies already have other none pony creatures in their world, it's easy to imagine that they'd become more friendly once the initial shock wears off and they know you aren't some alien supervillain.
Personally, I enjoy trying to headcanon which ponies would actually be the quickest to warm up to a human. Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie are most peoples go to choices, but I think Rarity and Applejack are pretty underrated. They both have carnivorous pets, meaning they'd be more sympathetic to a human's dietary needs, and while Rarity might be a tad racist at times, neither of them are ever really particularly intimidated by none pony creatures.
The real hurdle would really be body language. Without pony ears and tails and just the other natural behavioral differences, they could have a harder time understanding human social cues. So basically worst case scenario is that you have a really bad case of resting bitch face which makes you seem a bit unapproachable.
>>
>>42890762
Yeah, plus if we're assuming that you don't become a cartoon person your expressions would also be more subtle, even the ones they can recognize. Add that onto autism and I could see a lot of ponies being a little uncomfortable or unsure around an anon.

On a light hearted note though, it's fun to imagine the ponies who are able to understand Anon better interacting with the ponies who don't understand how to read him.
Really the biggest thing would probably just be the more predatory eyes. The artstyle kind of covers it up, but comparing the ponies to their eqg couterparts, I think the ponies are indeed supposed to have more side facing eyes. So the real divide would come down to ponies who interact with predatory animals regularly and are accustomed to the eyes(Applejack. Rarity, Fluttershy, etc) vs ones who don't and so the eyes are something that disturbs them even if they may not be able to fully realize what exactly is creeping them out. To ponies not used to it, basically any prolonged stare would feel like you're glaring at them. Off topic, but early Kengan Asura chapters I think illustrate a bit what it would be like, where the characters are purposefully drawn to look a bit creepy and hostile even when their just in a casual situation. Ponies not used to being around predators I imagine would have a perception closer to this.

>>42890822
I would no shit accept ponies as a whole not being very fond of me if it means my waifu accepts me.
I could live with that trade off. I don't have to interact with the rest of them. Just having a few that genuinely care would be good enough.
>>
>>42890267
Isn't there an applefag green that partly goes over, but isn't the subject, a human's usefulness compared to a pony's? Anything but a unicorn can't chop wood, or tie stuff properly, and all sorts of other shit. Lyra's right for obsessing over hands, we'd be lusted after over what we can do during work and not for our stamina in bed.
>>
>>42890860
There was a relatively recent applegreen where chopping wood was directly stated to be something Anon was way better at than anyone else in the apple family, but none of the other stuff you mention shows up.
https://ponepaste.org/11233
Other than that, it sound like it could be something from either the old Technology isn't magic or the Magicless AiE generals. I did also read an unfinished yandere Twilight story one time where Anon was depressed because he felt useless in society, and all the mane 6 had written him letters trying to cheer him up since he wouldn't leave his house, and in AJ's letter she talked about how good he was at handling tools compared to any of them and how hard of a worker he is.

I see people bring up the predator vs prey eye argument often and it kinda irks me because it's not as true as people make it out to be. Especially in that post about Skyrim horses looking at you with the front of their faces pointing at you meaning they're predators.
Horses can and will stare at you with both eyes. If you walk up to a horse, and you get their attention in any way besides fear, that nose will be pointed directly at you, because not only do they smell better than you can but they can also see you better using both of their eyes.
You looking at them dead on isn't a problem, but if you start leering at them, that's a problem. And also a problem if you do it to people as well.
>>
>>42890801
the predator eye stuff is cringe as fuck. you don't look like a fucking tiger man, none of the ponies are gonna be afraid of some humans little eyes.

>>

Not necessarily true.
Most large primates have the same bead eyes we do, and the carnivore ones are a fucking menace.
Also remember, horses might be big and shit, but they're overgrown scaredy squirrels.
>>
>>42890889
It's not about looking like a tiger or anything, it's just the uncanny valley. I'm not saying they run in terror from it, I just mean it would make you look weird and a little bit 'off' to anypony who isn't used to it.
>>
>>42890915
they already have front facing eyes so idk how you can look uncanny
>>
>>42890885
>You looking at them dead on isn't a problem, but if you start leering at them, that's a problem. And also a problem if you do it to people as well.
That's more like how I meant it. Horses have stuff like ears and tail movements that also reflect their mood, where as a human face, relatively speaking, would have alot fewer tells. As a result to ponies it would seem like you just stare really, really uncomfortably hard at anyone you speak to.
The important part is that this effect wears off the more familiar the pony becomes with a human. If the mane 6 or similar are close friends with them, then by that point they should know you well enough to be able to discern human body language. There would be a learning curve to it, but once ponies are accustomed to how your body language is different from theirs, they wouldn't find you so weird looking anymore.
>>
>>42890925
the ponies use human facial expressions throughout the whole show. more so than body language.
>>
>>42890930
Even in the show ponies will still flatten their ears, swish their tails, or paw the ground depending on their mood. Humans don't really do those things, either we lack the anatomy or have different behaviors to indicate the same thing. Just because someone is smiling doesn't mean their happy, body language is a huge indicator too. Just look how Pinkie reacted to the residents in Glimmer's town. She could tell very quickly those smiles were fake as hell.
>>
>>42890935
>Even in the show ponies will still flatten their ears,
except they still show emotion in their face when doing this. pawing at the ground isn't unique to ponies either, a human can do this, but just using their foot instead.
>>
>>42890939
I just told you facial expression alone doesn't always tell you everything. Some people will look upset when they're in a normal mood.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resting_bitch_face
> a human can do this, but just using their foot instead.
Humans do not tend to do this the same way equines do. Even if you were doing it, it wouldn't signify the same things it does when a pony does it unless you are specifically going out of your way to do it in that particular way. IDK who you're hanging out with, but I've never seen someone start grinding their foot on the ground when they're feeling aggressive. Humans have their own instinctual behaviors they tend towards,

>>42890945
bro there is nothing in the show that would indicate there would be any social barriers to overcome between ponies and humans. they express themselves the exact same as us, with some extra tail wagging and 4 legged mannerisms thrown in. there is no predator/prey dynamic to explore here.
