...except I’m mixed on the lesson. At least the wording.
> Always expect the best from your friends, and never assume the worst. Rest assured that a good friend always has your best interests at heart.

Part of me thinks this is, while not bad in intend, bad phrasing, as kids, especially in this day and age, your friends certainly NOT have your best interests at heart even if you think there your good friends. Yet… how many times have I see (from afar usually) friendships destroyed over stupid assumptions and or buying into some stupid rumor? Plenty! It is either perfect and I am a little too low trust, jaded and calculating or it is something that needs a significant tweaking. Regardless, as I have said I often think that people over scrutinize the phrasing of this lessons and don’t think it’s a major blow but part of me would’ve liked the wording there to have put more emphasis on not jumping to conclusions with limited information.   


Odds and Ends!

Party Music
The party music from the Call of the Cutie is once again reused here at Pinkie’s birthday party. If I can get my act well enough together I will try to track these motifs better. Call of Cutie, The Showstoppers (probably most famous use where it was sometimes a defacto secondary theme for the CMC within the fandom. Someone had even wrote lyrics to it but I have already searched for it before I couldn’t find it). I thought another episode this season I also noticed having this music but I can't recall. 

Hair
Hair! Rarity calls her mane, her hair! Not the first time this season someone has refereed to mane as hair. I look forward to seeing what human terminology still coexisted and what was later ponified in future seasons. 

Streetlight
I spy with my little eye a streetlight, or I guess what maybe more propperly termed street lantern?. I don’t recall noticing these before. They could have easily been in the background and I could’ve missed it. I wonder, magical, oil, gas, or electric? 

Liars
Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy were the best liars of the bunch. They even improvised and Pinkie Pie bought the lie as legit. Applejack was the worst and most hilarious.

Pinkie's Peculiar Party Pals  
I need to check on what other appearances on MLP media they had, if any. I am drawn to obscure secondary characters (if they could be called characters) like this because in a fandom that ran with background appearances and small implications, there is a lot more material for us to work with. My favorite is probably  Madame le Flour followed by Mr Turnip. I just like the voice she does for Madame. For Mr Turnip it is more of his “design” that I like.
