I was actually checking ponibooru anticipating somebody was going to upload my horrifying discovery last night. I see my fears were justified.

Mare alcoholics ambushing stallions in order to sate their addiction. It is the ark of the covenant of pony rule34. May Celestia have mercy on my soul.

There is salt in semen, but not much, despite its reputably salty taste.

The original message was like:

"Oh, shit.
The salt content in semen being used to make fillies drunk.
Do not fucking read that spoiler. I'm not kidding."

Okay, word of thiessen can go take a dive.
1)Fermentation is a natural biological process, you're going to find alcohol in SOME form, if nothing but apples left to spoil on the ground. And considering the sheer volume of apples all over the place-- Three guesses where "Applejack" got her name, and the first two don't count.

2)Horses like salt licks because they don't get enough salt in their regular diet. They don't get stoned off it any more than YOU do.

Gah. "There's no such thing as alcohol." As if the only way to exercise temperance was if the stuff didn't exist.

So from here on out, all "drinks" in equestria are salt licks with different flavors?

Imo, a sort of alcohol would make more sense too me. Mainly Fermentation or w/e it's called. Since I know some mooses have gotten "drunk" of yeast apples and plums.

Re: The existence of alcohol in Equestria.

I hope I'm quoting the right guy. I thought I read that alcohol does not exist in Equestria in some interview. However, I don't think they're referring to the chemical, they're referring to the creation of alcoholic beverages.

Doing a little search now, I did find this confirmation which does not say that alcohol does not exist, what it says it ponies do not drink. That's pretty much the same thing as ponies do not brew alcoholic beverages.

There is some Word Of Faust to support that. >>17957

However, in Over A Barrel, you can definitely see a similar effect to being drunk, so if you want to get ponies drunk while being canonically supported, use salt.

Funny story, Vinyl Scratch wasn't the pic I intended to upload. That was a ponychan malfunction.

"ponies do not drink"

OBJECTION!

This clearly contradicts a previous statement!

Your honour, do you recall what Mrs. Pinkie Pie said in a previous episode?

I believe her words were, "And now the punch has been...

Spiked!"

The only way that comment would make any sense would be...

If ponies drank spiked punch!

Maybe they spike their punches with [strike]semen[/strike] salt?

@misnamed:
Spiked could mean any sort of drugs that can be diluted in the punch. In this case, salt could work. So, the punch can still be spiked with salt.

This is all quite ridiculous. The use of salt as a stand-in was simply to connect a western gag/trope into the ponyverse, which then riffed on further with Spike and donuts in the finale.

Word of Faust is that making the gag funny is the most important thing, world-logic aside, so if it's a prop, setup, or punchline of a joke, don't think about it too hard.

Berry Punch was supposed to look drunk in every scene she appeared in Cutie Mark Chronicles. Check out her first scene in the original storyboards.

So the animators and storyboard artists don't entirely agree with the "ei" friendly line that Jason and Lauren have to toe. If they give an interview do you think they're going to say anything that could be used against Hasbro? Maybe Jason secretly liked the idea of a drunk pony but it got squashed by Standards. So he defers to Word of Faust.

But then Lauren only said that abuse of alcohol is looked down upon in Equestria... that's a pretty loose but responsible position.

Do the math.
