It worked for jaime and cersei

The two ponies you ship might be related?  
throws napalm into ships furnace  
Ship them harder! Blood is only so thick!

I totally agree with Jack! Johnny Depp forever!!

@ShadowSlut  
Well, your statement is something that is, to me, basic stuff. It is amazing the first few hundred times you think about it, but after that it becomes simple physics. Biology is much more complex than physics. Even physicists would agree I bet. Not more interesting, that is a personal opinion, but more complex none-the-less. A single cell takes more computing power to simulate than an entire star, because at it’s core (Pun intended) a star is pretty simple in comparison and you don’t have to simulate every particle because of that.

@Eeveeinheat  
Feels neglected you totally ignored my statement to try make the fact that we’re alive seem badass xD

@ShadowSlut  
Well, kind of. I’m talking about actual genetic relations, and single particles don’t have DNA.

@Eeveeinheat  
I mean, on that level, everything is related. We’re all made out of Stardust, we’re all on a gigantic rock hurtling through space at speeds that would normally kill you, orbiting a giant made out of fire that could wipe us out of it sneezed.

@ShadowSlut  
We are related when you compare us to chimps. Technically, all life on Earth is related.

@a6p  
Biologically, we’re not all actually related. We are religiously through the idea of Adam & Eve, but there’s a reason we’ve been shooting holes in that theory for well over a decade now.

Haha, that’s not a hole in the ship, it’s like strengthening it with steel or something. :D

HAHA! Oh God that’s great! XD

Yea but thats just pinkine and applejack being cute and close. Im pretty sure these two do not feel like family at all, let alone the same way pinkie and applejack do, if at all. It’d be weird if they were calling each other “cousin” the whole time while givin each other googly eyes.

@eddmario  
….Simba and Nala are siblings, cousins at best

I’m guessing that as long as we ship this, someone is gonna call incest. I’ll still ship the hell outta this.

@eddmario  
And even then, one could argue that simba himself is technically banging his sister when you realize how lion prides actually function.

They are so distant that it doesn’t even matter if they pork.

Reminder - Most of you exist BECAUSE of inbreeding.

Oh shit I forgot

They’re farmer ponies in the early 1900’s. Nopony cares if they’re first cousins–it’s probably even preferable if they’re first cousins!

@Twilatron217  

 
TECHNICALLY it’s the second movie that has it, and it’s not genetic incest since Kovu is only Scar’s step-son.

@Background Pony #C07E  
The lion king has incest.

Pie’s and Apples are too distant to be considered as incest. However i doubt this will serve to establish PinkieJack shipping. They will probably get BM and Marble together to officially connect these families together with a bond. And to make a wedding episode with ALL apples and ALL pie’s gathering together in future seasons.

@Background Pony #E25F  
Well, as so many others have pointed out, the fact that they share a great, great, great, great, great grandparent makes them so distantly related they’d basically have no actual genetic similarity to each other. At that point they’d be connected mainly through genealogical records, and nothing else.
 
So really everybody wins. If it’s your thing, you can argue they’re still technically related, if not, they’re so distant they may as well be strangers.

That makes it hotter

@a6p  
While this is true, the fact that Pinkie and Applejack actively refer to each other as cousins adds to the squick factor quite a bit.
 
It’s like shipping step-siblings. Not biological family, but there’s still that familial aesthetic that makes it weird.
