It is split into five volumes, totaling 620,000 words across more than 2,000 pages.

My brother in Christ, thank you for this. Hilarious!

how does a pony fire an AK-47?

[–] Demdaru@lemmy.world 19 points 3 months ago (2 children)

Battle saddles - basically a saddle with mouth trigger to which you mount whatever weapon you need and auto reload on kick. Or telekinesis, if unicorn.

[–] Tar_alcaran@sh.itjust.works 14 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I haven't read it, since it's MLP, and also since it's apparently 2000 pages, so I can't tell you. But I do want to know

[–] Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 15 points 3 months ago (2 children)

In "Fallout: Equestria," ponies fire guns and perform other actions using:

  1. Magic and Telekinesis: Unicorns use magic to manipulate objects.
  2. Adaptive Technology: Specialized tools and mechanisms for hooves.
  3. Collaboration: Teamwork leveraging unique strengths.
  4. Creative Problem-Solving: Innovative use of tools and environment.

These adaptations showcase the ponies' resilience in a post-apocalyptic world.

Huh. Dunno if any of that is true, shan't verify

Or, in Tamers12345’s universe (objectively the best one) you can just DO it… with varying degrees of success.

Sometimes in fantasy or scifi it's fine to say "that's just how it is, don't worry about it" hah

AK, in Fallout world? Pffft

[–] Bonsoir@lemmy.ca 8 points 3 months ago (1 children)

The "chinese assault rifle" from Fallout 3 looks pretty much like an AK to me.

[–] Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 3 points 3 months ago

It pretty much is tbh

[–] Cornelius_Wangenheim@lemmy.world 4 points 3 months ago

They have particularly nimble pelvic muscles.

Honestly, Wikipedia, who the fuck still uses a subdomain for mobile?

[–] satans_methpipe@lemmy.world 4 points 3 months ago (2 children)

I see you've never done serious web development.

[–] bitjunkie@lemmy.world 18 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Ok time to close IE6 and get you to bed grandpa

Honestly, please do. Don't try to deduce it from UA or worse yet, aspect ratio. The results are predictable this way. Or maybe have 3 subdomains, m.example.org for mobile, d.example.org for desktop, example.org for auto.

Holy equestrian atrocity. I thought only AI...

There were at least 4 books from what I remember. They made physical hardback copies so you could enjoy an MLP fanfic for the low low cost of $120!

[–] ace_of_based@sh.itjust.works 28 points 3 months ago (2 children)

I was shocked at first but then i was like "yeah, sounds right" and then i looked up the word count of this collection of stories and...620,000 words across over 2000 pages.

War and Peace only has 587,000.

amazed. I'm amazed. Thanks for showing me this.

Have you heard of Sonic? What about Pikachu? Now, what happens when we combine them together to make... Sonichu!

[–] Gullible@sh.itjust.works 25 points 3 months ago (2 children)

Whoa, that’s amazing! I’m gonna show my elderly mother!

[–] setsneedtofeed@lemmy.world 15 points 3 months ago (1 children)

The medallion is also cursed.

[–] Iheartcheese@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago

We all are.

[–] uuldika@lemmy.ml 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I actually read the entirety of HPMoR to my elderly mother. I tried to sell her on Friendship is Optimal but I think rationalist pony fanfic is a bit too ambitious a leap.

piknic is way better than sonichu

[–] Tar_alcaran@sh.itjust.works 7 points 3 months ago

Woah woah woah, sonichu is a totally Original Character (do not steal), that has nothing to do with either of those!

[–] Schadrach@lemmy.sdf.org 5 points 3 months ago

Now, what happens when we combine them together to make… Sonichu!

...you get serially harassed by online weirdos, likely become the single most documented human in all of history because of said weirdos, come out as trans and eventually get charged for incest with your mother?

[–] jaybone@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago (2 children)

Whatever happened to that guy? Last I heard they let him out of prison.

[–] SeekPie@lemm.ee 5 points 3 months ago

Don't know the answer, but I think she uses "she/her" pronouns now.

I've got the giant bible version of it. Thin paper, gold edges.

[–] Djinn_Indigo@lemm.ee 19 points 3 months ago

One time a colleague and I found that book just chilling under an unused desk at work. We had never heard of it, so we were pretty confused. 😆 Still kinda am, honestly.

Fallout: Equestria is a rabbit hole in the rabbit hole of the MLP fandom

God I remember reading about the adventures of Security for years after I stopped watching MLP. Fallout: Equestria was a wild place with two mammoth works written in the space.

[–] FilthyShrooms@lemmy.world 11 points 3 months ago

Still a better story than fallout 4

Hang on there Anon, I'm thirsty so I'm gonna get a cup of bleach before you start.
