the only reason this is so funny is because diamond tiara is such a little bitch. |

I've always thought it funny that we assume similar color schemes mean familial relations. |
| P0ny_brigade #497700 10 months ago |
@heinousactszx That tends to be the case genetically speaking; phenotype traits are passed down from parent to child. |
| Anonymous #497706 10 months ago |
Can't we have a background pony that doesn't have family in Ponyville...? |
| HeinousActsZX #497717 10 months ago |
@P0ny Yeah, B=but look at Pinkie and Twilight. They don't match their families. |
| HeinousActsZX #497723 10 months ago |
@Heinous It's hard to fail at spelling that bad. You succeeded. |
| P0ny_brigade #497737 10 months ago |
@ heinous I will now inform you about recessive alleles and punnet squares and why they don't have to look similar.
Recessive allele- An allele whose phenotypic effect is not expressed in a heterozygote so say twilights parents are both (Pp) and there is about a 75% chance she will obtain the dominant alleles that her parents possess, but there is still the 25% chance she obtains recessive alleles and looks the way she does. we assume color similarity means genetic relation because other than actual pony type we really have nothing to correlate them. |
| P0ny_brigade #497743 10 months ago |
recessive allele = (pp) but you should know this unless your still in middle school or something. |
| HeinousActsZX #497773 10 months ago |
@P0ny No, I get all that. Really. I just think it seems like ponies' colors are more likely to be randomized. |
| P0ny_brigade #497788 10 months ago |
^ you would think so but I have my doubts |

With only a slight leaning to certain colors^ |

P0ny_brigade: You're forgetting that pony genetics is Lamarckian. |

Guys , it`s a frikken SHOW and fans believe what they want to anyway so quit arguing, for ****´s sake |
| Anonymous #498188 10 months ago |
Hilarious. I really thought that WAS Diamond Tiara under a Discord spell when I first saw the ep. It was only later that I looked closely enough to realize that Screwball was a different character. This would be a funny premise. |

@Heinous & P0ny
Ponies are serious fucking business, huh? |
| Anonymous #498352 10 months ago |
@P0ny you want to bring biology into this, ok consider this. There are traits for each type of pony, Earth, Unicorn, Pegasus. If two different types have a child, it can only be one of the three (ignoring 1 in a million Alicorns). If a P and E can have either P or E offspring, and U and E have U or E, P and U can then have P or U, or Alicorn because thats the only combo that makes since genetically. Show me a Punnett Square that accurately represents ratios of P, E, and U offspring, assuming that E is the Dominant trait. If I remember correctly, it isn't mathematically and therefore scientifically possible. Prove me wrong, Ready Go! |

^^ earth, pegasus, and unicorn ponies are all different species. besides i don't have THAT much free time. |
| Jimmytrius #501462 10 months ago |
LMAO, this is PURE WIN XDDDDDDDD |
| PowerWordStun #505266 10 months ago |
I bet Screwball is the cool older sister/aunt that Diamond Tiara would defend if her friends picked on her. Kind of like in a Charlie Brown special about crazy or weird family members. |
| Questionable_Object #998417 5 months ago |
Wait.....
Screball's a REAL background pony? Shit I miss so much I need to rewatch the series.... |
| danieltepeskraus #1235633 3 months ago |
It's not that this IS the case. This would be funny as hell if it was the case because, as Pony Brigade put it, DT is a complete bitch. |
