Page 935 — You're Too Kind

Y'know, I came to a small realization over the weekend.

Part of the Friendship is Dragons brand is "Story Time," where I use the comic as a prompt to have commenters tell their own RPG stories. It's a neat little piece of audience engagement that college-age me just sort of stumbled upon.

But I've realized that, over the last few years, the YouTube clickbait sphere has developed their own "Storytime," where they typically tell a shallow story about their day (titled with something misleading) and at the end ask viewers to share their own similar experience if they have one.

I'm not sure how to feel about that now.

Transcript:
Applejack: While Rarity's, er… sketching things out… what exactly are we plannin' to do at the Gala?
Pinkie Pie: Have fun!
Twilight Sparkle: I think our job is to talk up Dainty Dove with the Canterlot nobility so that she comes in with a good reputation.
Rainbow Dash: <yaaaawwwn> That's it?
DM: You are trying to make an entirely fake person exist.
Fluttershy: I'm not so sure I could lie to so many people like that…
Pinkie Pie: It's not all that hard. Just use all the compliments you'd give "Rarity" but say "Dainty Dove!"
Fluttershy: Oh. So, something like… "Dainty Dove is really good at acting"?
Pinkie Pie: Ermmmm…
Rarity: That may give our marks the wrong idea…
