Why are g3 mares so cute and derpy?
>>43227405They live in a totally carefree world. G4 has enough depth to feel like a real place, so it's easier to think up grimdark scenarios where ponies experience tragedy, heartbreak, death, etc. Things like that are even alluded to in the show itself. Despite all the fairytale silliness of it, even G1 has world-ending threats and dangerous creatures. G3 though is just a harmless, idyllic world where nothing bad ever happens and ponies just frolic around doing silly shit and having fun, 24/7. The worst thing that will ever happen to any of these mares is accidentally putting the wrong kind of glitter on a birthday card and having to apologize for it. G3's world is not a real place, it could never be a real place. Even if it could be real, you could never exist there, because your presence would fundamentally alter the fabric of that reality and destroy it. But it doesn't worry you. You're content to just look through the window and let these cute, silly mares solve their cute, silly mare problems while you watch. You don't long to be there with them like you do with G4, you just partake vicariously in their pure happiness and enjoy the little window you have into their cute, silly little world.
>>43227405they all kind of got that moe face going on
>>43227452I want to be there. Fuck grimdark. Fuck reality. Fuck problems. I want to be with cute, happy mares and for nothing to ever go wrong ever. G3 is Heaven, but better.
>>43227452Wow. This was put so eloquently, anon. You have left me speechless. Watching g3 always leaves me with a warmth and joy inside that I haven't really felt since childhood.
>>43227405dimosaw
I LOVE G3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
>>43227501Too bad it doesn't have Crazy Glue.
>>43227479we got baby bitchtits over here everyone
I like Minty because she reminds me of myself. I want to be her friend
>>43227508Picrel.>>43227512Yes.
>>43227452>You don't long to be there with themWrong.>but you'd be unhappy in a world like it, it's too perfectOh as compared with this reality, with problems to solve, uncertain outcomes that can be traumatic, and where I sometimes have to convince myself to stay alive? Oh please.G3 is heaven. It's where g4 ponies go when they die.
>>43227512>if you don't embrace hell you're weakThis is a big part of why I would want to go to g3. No one tells you to man up there. They support one another without complaining. And if someone is down they all act together until it's smiles again G3 is perfect because the kind souls make it perfect. The entire perfection of their world is a reflection of their inner beauty. Not like here, where the pain of others is met with indifference. Or scorn. The evil of this world creates cynics. I pity those who could never go there because they choose to reject it.
>>43227764>>43227776Very well articulated, both of you. Thanks for this. I’m a huge rejector of the cope of “You actually want to suffer. It gives life meaning.” Fuck that! What kind of meaning is that, and how is that better than just enjoying your life with friends? A world like G3 is exactly the kind of world that I want. That may mean that I’m more discontent with daily life, but it also means that I’m more honest. A problem I have with a lot of people is the sin of low expectations. If you don’t WANT things to be better, how could you ever expect to receive the amazing world that awaits you? I pray to one day be able to live in a fun world with mares forever. It IS what all of our souls long for deep down inside. Reject those who try to justify your undeserved pain!
>>43227516The world would be so much better if we were all like Minty
>>43227822Without suffering there is no reference point for pleasure and you will eventually be utterly bored and tormented by endless bliss and happiness.
>>43227822Wow, Golly. I normally think you are utterly insane but this is very beautiful.
>>43227848This. The first thing you'd do in that world is break something. Truth is we're wired to advance in that direction, but not to actually live there.
>>43227776>Not like here, where the pain of others is met with indifference. Or scorn. The evil of this world creates cynics.Exactly this. Fuck this world and the scummy humans (the majority of them) that inhabit it.
>>43227776>G3 is perfect because the kind souls make it perfect. The entire perfection of their world is a reflection of their inner beauty.Haters will sleep on this fact.
>>43227848Why would you state this in fact when it's impossible to truly know?
>>43228173Stop projecting. I would be in tears. Happy tears. You have a twisted mind.
>>43227848>Without bliss there is no reference point for suffering and you will eventually be utterly entertained and contented by endless suffering and sadness.This is how stupid your assertion is to me. You make it with such confidence. When it's just philosophy from people who have never had the opportunity for endless bliss and never will due to limited thinking. Your statement reads like sour grapes.Go stub a toe and tell me all the great meaning it brings to life. You're absurd and need to repent.
>>43227822>how is that better than just enjoying your life with friends?It isn't. Not a single person on their death bed wishes their life were harder so it could have more meaning. They usually think about loved ones.We bring meaning to our lives through our love for one another. And g3 mares know this.
>>43227848How would you experience torment when suffering doesn't exist? They're synonyms.I could see being bored maybe. Though I can't think of a single moment in my life where pain was preferable to boredom.>>43228173I can't speak for everyone, but I've literally never seen a nice locale and thought "Cool, how do I destroy this?"
>>43229469>boredWhy do these stupid anti g3 philosophers pretend that you would be without activity in g3? Look. This world has plenty of strife and pain and it's meaningless as fuck. So meaningless this entire board is practicing escapism. Get the absolute fuck out with bliss is boring. You'd be able to create, laugh, feast, fuck, play, befriend, explore.If you think a lack of pain = boring it is probably you who is boring. They also never explain how the pain in their life alleviates their boredom. It's just an all around stupid fucking argument.
>>43228368>Go stub a toe and tell me all the great meaning it brings to lifeStill waiting on an answer to this by the way.
>>43227405They live in a safe, perfect world. G3 is a world where the ponies won. All the threats are vanquished. All the disasters are prevented. They seem "derpy" because they are naive. Not stupid, but they never have experienced the hardships that make those in the real world act like desperate animals and then call themselves "mature".They are cute because they are mares, of course.
>>43229521I think they'd surprise you in a crisis. But there won't ever be one.
>>43229469>Though I can't think of a single moment in my life where pain was preferable to boredomIf you're left in a room with nothing to busy yourself but a button that gives you an electric shock, you'll press it. It's an actual study, look it up.
>>43229576Yeah but you're not in a fucking empty room this is g3 not fucking solitary You're just arguing to avoid being wrong at this point. Which you are.
>>43229576>nothing to busy yourselfCrafts. Food. Snugs. Flying kites. Going swimming. Tickling. Laughing. Running. YOU WOULD NOT BE FUCKING BOREDYou talk like a fag and your shit is retarded. I bet youn look forward to Monday because weekends are unbearable.
>>43229576Didn't know about that study. It's interesting to see. Though I wouldn't say it's definitive. The sample is relatively small and not especially varied (42 undergrad students). And in those conditions about 25%-33% of males and 75% of females didn't shock themselves. So it's more common than I'd expect but far from everyone.>>43229584 is also right that that study was largely about solitude, not just boredom. I imagine just having someone to talk with would decrease the number of shocks a lot.
>>43228046Thank you!>>43228382So true!I actually have a lot to say on this topic, but I think you’re covering it really well, so it’s a rare instance where I actually don’t have a whole lot to add. Just wanna thank those of you who are spreading the truth here! To everyone else: Question why you’ve convinced yourself of these horrible things. I think that put under any actual scrutiny, you’d see pretty quickly that defending the horrors of reality is nothing more than a coping mechanism.The one tiny bit of credit I’ll give to the other side here is that it may very well be true that we cannot exist in G3’s world as we are. Of course, I’d argue that we’re conditioned by our lives within this world so it’s not fair to expect us to be, but it is still true that none of us are perfect and that our humanlike ways are incompatible with the perfection of G3 mares.However, that being the case does not mean that this reality is more desirable than theirs, or that we shouldn’t be willing to be transformed by them. That’s what snowpity is all about. Snowpity is the very essence of a mare, and their snowpity than be transferred to us to help make our hearts more like theirs. Any additional cleansing that my soul must go through in order to be allowed in the G3 world, I obviously wholly welcome. We should definitely not tell ourselves that we prefer the filth of this wretched human world. We need to move past this hell that we live in.
>>43230228I would counter point with exactly what do you think you'd bring to g3 that would be so ruinous?>carnivore>lustThat's about all I can think. The anon saying I would go in and just start breaking stuff has issues. Question is are either of those things insurmountable?
>>43230410Lust is a pretty likely one, yeah. I wouldn’t harm anypony in any direct way, but just the fact that I see them as a potential vessel for personal gratification instead of fully equal individuals would inherently create a bit of a disconnect between my very human way at looking at others and their perfect, loving, superior way of seeing every individual fully for who they are inside, wholly without selfish intents.However, lust wasn’t what my mind immediately went to. I do have anger problems sometimes. Those would definitely be lessened by being in the presence of such immaculate love and harmony, but how can I say for sure that Minty or Rarity won’t unknowingly cause me trouble, resulting in me flipping out on them? I do hope I’d be better than that, but my whole life, or even an eternity there? I really cannot promise that I’d never have a day where I’m not acting as I should. In G3, the ponies don’t let the small little troubles get to them, which makes it the exact same as there being no real troubles. But I might’ve been pretty pissed if I found out about Misty smashing the Here Comes Christmas Candy Cane, for example.I definitely think I can cultivate being more like those mares here on Earth in preparation for my eternity with them, but if I were to die today, I would definitely hope that there’s some kind of detox my soul can go through just to make sure I don’t ruin their perfect world.At the very least, though, I guess they’d be forgiving, which I very much appreciate. I think that would make it a lot easier for me to improve myself. At least, I hope so. On the other hand, being constantly forgiven could instill in my mind that there’s not really anything wrong with the horrible ways I can behave sometimes. Or, I don’t know for sure, I do hope that wouldn’t be the result. I just think that being extra cautious about my own self is a good idea before bringing myself into a world that’s better than me.Regardless, Anon, I hope to be friends in G3 Pony Heaven with you. If we have any memories of this previous life (which I kinda might not want to, but I’m not completely sure), it’d be really cool to reminisce on these days. Only for the purposes of reenforcing the joy of the hope we both had, and how the wondrous world we both imagined is even better in person than we ever could’ve dreamed.
>>43230444I dunno. I feel like anything the mares do would be like getting splashed at the pool lol. You're having a good time and someone does a goof.If you have uncontained anger it's something to work on.
>>43230444>being constantly forgiven could instill in my mind that there’s not really anything wrong with the horrible ways I can behave sometimesI had a dog. It died of old age. Through her life there were times I was very demanding during training. And everything i ever did to it, I questioned once she was gone. I regretted everything that didn't bring us closer or add to her quality of life. Stupid things i did just to have control. My capacity to do harm without considering other died with her. When you truly feel what you do to others you're just doing to yourself you'll likely stop.
>>43230410>The anon saying I would go in and just start breaking stuff has issues.The same issues as you and all of humankind, yeah. Long all you want, but we live in a fallen world due to our proclivity to sin, we've known this for thousands of years. So how do you face that perceived gap between what is and what should be? How do you face suffering? Hate is an understable reaction, but all it does is worsen the problem, that's how you get mass shooters followed by suicide. The alternative is to use your suffering as your aid to go in the right direction, stop blaming others and the world (again, even if it makes perfect sense), bear the load and take the steps that move the world even a tiny bit closer to the good. This means you will suffer, but you will anyways. It's better to suffer for a reason.It would be better not to suffer at all? Perhaps, but live like that and see where it leads you. Disappointment, resent, it becomes downright murderous
>>43230653Oh god a Christcuck, the cope to end all copes.>"God makes me suffer more than others because he loves me so much!"Fuck outta here with your bullshit.
