That’s entirely up to you. Simply saying that it is poor is not a very good explanation though. Also, I like the backhanded insult about abstract thought, very cheeky. :)
 
I look forward to seeing a concrete maxim on revulsion’s ubiquitous triggers.

@rogerSnow
 
Belief. I don’t believe there’s a shortage of abstract thought (I believe there’s an infinite amount of it) but is there a belief that there is a shortage of it?

@Background Pony #AB54  
Your comparison between the subjectivity of whether or not something is suggestive and whether or not something is sickening is poor. I shouldn’t have to explain why, but I’m sure I’m going to have to after your reply to thus anyways aren’t I? Abstract thought is in short supply these days.

@Tenafly Viper  
You’re making what you already said applicable to yourself. Congratulations.

@Background Pony #AB54  
…you’re basically repeating exactly what I already said. Congratulations.
 
@Background Pony #F10E  
I’m sorry if I don’t see how pointing out the facts in a situation is “whipping anyone into a righteous frenzy”, but okay there, spanky. Whatever helps you sleep at night.

@Background Pony #F10E
 
I’m beginning to wonder if I’m appearing in that way to some people (Self righteous frenzy) But, That’s not my intent…

@Tenafly Viper  
If you’re truly not part of, as you called it, “this DWM bullshit”, then you shouldn’t try and work people into a self-righteous frenzy over something that you find offensive.

@Tenafly Viper  
You do realize that what one person finds sickening is not what every other person finds sickening, right?

@Background Pony #AB54
 
If we are, I am not a part of that destructiveness nor will I be.
 
@Tenafly Viper
 
Good for you that you are not part of that mentality; It is a happy thing for you. Perhaps consider not allowing yourself to be sickened by those actions; Is that of any benefit to you or anyone else to be sickened by someone else’s (Unmerciful) actions? Certainly, It might not be good to repeat another person’s actions (depending on the context) but does getting sick over it prevent them from doing what they do or does getting sick over it rob you?
 
You can have a way to overcome that sickness and other ones like it if you ask for it, Seek it, Knock on doors for it, Particularly if you focus on it prior to sleep; This works for me and I know it can work for you too if you do believe.

@Background Pony #AB54  
I’m sorry, what was that?  
You do realize that what one person finds “suggestive” is not what every other person finds “suggestive”, right?  
Because apparently, Nicole didn’t.  
And let’s not forget, they continued to harass her about this even after she asked them three times to stop.  
They also chose to harass her on a fucking HOLIDAY.  
The ONLY thing they should be sickened with is THEMSELVES.  
End of fucking story.

@Tenafly Viper  
Are you sure it was DWM people that did this?
 
And it’s ok, just put on some music and put on some chamomile tea to enjoy your pie.

@Tenafly Viper  
I’m sure they were sickened as well, so you’re probably even.

@BarryFromMars  
I DEFINITELY am not part of this “DWM” bullshit. Their conduct today (on a holiday!) has just literally sickened me.

@BarryFromMars  
Unfortunately, we live in a society were “crushing your opponent through whatever means necessary to be victorious,” is glorified far and above trying to “learn, understand and find solutions that benefit everyone.”

@Japanese Teeth
 
Yeah, Ultimately it is still Mashed Potatoes + Gravy, And with Princess Molestia it might suggest other things; But that doesn’t mean to suggest them every time I eat mashed potatoes and gravy!
 
@Tenafly Viper
 
For what reason? You’re not one of those people plugged in to the “DWM” Mentality, Are you? What’s bothering you? You don’t have to let them make you sick; Sure, It’s not a nice mentality for them to be doing but what benefit is it to you to get sick over it?
 
And yeah if people are not being kind and merciful and such to those who they don’t agree with it’s just not right.
 
@Background Pony #F10E
 
I’m going with what makes sense to me:
 
If I were a pornographer, I’d be asking for mercy and I would receive it.
 
If I were a murderer, I’d be asking for mercy and would receive it.
 
I’d also be asking to be merciful.
 
But the whole “Eye for an eye, Tooth for tooth” “Repay evil for evil” mentality is dumb; All it does is make evil continue because “The other guy’s an asshole”; Who is “The other guy”? SOMEONE WHO HAS THE VERY SAME MENTALITY AND EVEN THOSE WHO DO NOT! So yes that includes Grandma. I’m not raging here without mercy, I’m just saying it - Treat others as you’d have them treat you, Treat your neighbor as yourself, Etc, If you choose to; That’s what I believe in now.

I guess the context is on the other foot now.

@Tenafly Viper  
That’s what happens when your hatred is so intense that you start raging at people with literally no provocation. If you want someone to blame, blame the war on ethics for making every other social justice cause look sane by comparison.

@Casual Brony  
She had to ask I think three times for them to stop bothering her about it.
 
AND ON THANKSGIVING, NO LESS.
 
The DWM people literally make me sick.
 
I made the most bomb-ass fucking amazing pecan pies for today, and I don’t feel like eating a single slice now.

It’s a shame she was embarrassed as a result. Did people tease her on twitter for it or something?

sickening, the way they chose to bother her about this :(

@ForegroundPony  
I think we’ve all heard by now how inhumanly, implausibly emotional “they” are. We don’t need another demonstration.

@Japanese Teeth  
The latter, probably.

@Verbose  
Except that you, know, it was mashed potatoes. Mashed potatoes that were deliberately drawn to resemble something else, but still mashed potatoes.
 
My guess is more that one of the show’s media people noticed and went “WTF is that! Get rid of it!” Either that or she didn’t expect so many people to react so strongly and decided to err on the side of caution.

>>484878  
apparently i was right.

@Itsthinking
 
I think it’s in the best interest of the voice actresses to understand that they need to avoid any potential problems. People said it meant more. That’s enough to get her ultimate employers upset.
 
Tara can get away with it, because, well, she’s Hasbro’s Twilight Sparkle, and because she’s danged Tara Strong.
 
What bothers me most is that people won’t stop talking about it on her Twitter. I wish people would stop telling her “We all make mistakes” and the like.
