I noticed that, I was so happy! And I love how Big Mac took Smarty Pants after Celestia fixed the problem in the newest episode. :3 That was awesome, I hope Big Mac makes more appearances. He's awesome.
Silent ponyville wasn't even that gory in my opinion That may be because i do actually do have reading problems and the fact that my brain does sorta tone everything down to a PG level.... But hay that's just me....
