Dinobot: Twilight Farkle: Maybe rubies are worth thousands of bits per carat (or per carrot), but emeralds are so plentiful they're only valuable as confection?

Interestingly enough... gems do seem to come across as pretty common, at least for the mane group -- in part because one can easily find them, and the other one eats them -- but for those outside that circle, it does seem to hold financial value

otherwise, how the hell one ruby buy s a industrial pet dryer?

/why wont rarity donate gems to applejack? the farm seems to be in the brink of financial ruin every now and then

That, I think I can answer. Insanity in investing is doing the same thing over and over again, yet expecting different results.

Rarity: I'm sorry, Applejack, your fabulosity at barn-raising is the stuff of legend, but even my generosity has its limits.



Granny Smith: Don't you pay her no mind. When I first came here, Sweet Apple Acres was all swamp. Everypony said I was daft to raise a barn on a swamp, but I built it all the same, just to show 'em. It got eaten by parasprites and sank into the swamp. So I raised a second one. Rainbow Dash sonic-rainnuked it and it sank into the swamp. So I raised a third. An army of Pinkie Pies appeared, it fell over, and then sank into the swamp. But the fourth one... lasted until the Family Reunion, when the fruitbats followed the wagon into it, and then sank into the swamp. But the fifth one stayed up!

Applejack: (muttering) ...for three whole episodes.

Granny Smith: And that's what you're gonna get, lass, the strongest barn in all of Equestria!

Pinkie Pie: Can't we just... sing?

Everypony: AND NO SINGING!

And this wild take.

He loves to singa.

HaywoodJablonski: Congrats, bronies. You make furries look socially adjusted

Hey, look, it's the jerkoff who loudly and proudly proclaims how he ignores people for posting pony pics, yet comes into threads that specifically are about ponies!

And let's not forget about how he complains when ponies are posted in Football threads because they're not about football, yet his only contribution to the Football thread is to tell everyone how he ignores people who post pony pics!

Let's give him a round of applause for knowing how to ignore things he doesn't like!

Tyrone Slothrop: Winonah? Can you ride her?

She is the most powerful handgun in the uncharted territories.

Quick and dirty. We have a State of the Union address coming up. "Any time McConnell and Pelosi are in the same frame and glaring at each other, drink."

Let he who has not eaten the chocolate chips, the macadamia nuts, the batter left on the inside of the bowl, the cookie dou-("skip a bit, Farkle") ...cast the first gem.
