Description
Over the weekend I rewatched the entire first season of My Little Pony, Friendship is Magic, in preparation for season 2's imminent start, and decided I might as well put together a bit more Fanart. I still find Pinkie Pie's childhood on a rock farm one of the funniest parts of the show, so I drew her dad, Clyde. Plus, I'll take any excuse to draw a pony with such intense facial hair.MLP belongs to Hasbro and Lauren Faust.
Feedback is always appreciated.

No smiling, no talking, only rocks? I seriously question clyde's sanity, especially for "growing" rocks.

My current theory is that the rock farm doesn't actually exist. Pinkie Pie actually grew up in Ponyville, possibly being raised by the Cakes. Then one day, she decided that she had grown up on a rock farm. And Pinkie is not limited by silly things like the fourth wall or causality. So the past was retroactively changed, and Pinkie had grown up on a rock farm.

Pinkie pie being pinkie pie then.
I suppose that the use of the rock farm in her story also helps send the message of low income and depression. That or it could be her way of describing an infertile farm.

I don't think it was truly low income or depression. I am under the opinion that poverty doesn't really exist in Equestria. Celestia has a nice little welfare state thing going on. I mean, it seems a lot of ponies in Ponyville have special talents related to growing flowers and other similar things, and I don't think that the entire town economy can thrive on nothing but growing flowers. You do have some ponies that actually do generate wealth (Applejack and Rarity, for example), but I feel like there's also a lot of wealth coming from Canterlot supporting the town. How else could the afford to rebuild after the town gets destroyed every couple episodes?

I have so much to catch up on.
What about Pinkie Pie's mother? Did she drink too much espresso when she was pregnant with Pinkie Pie?
I guess I better find out.

Watch the Cutie Mark Chronicles Episode (Episode 23, I think?). It's got backstories for all the Mane six. Pinkie Pie's is one of the funniest parts of the whole show, in my opinion.
And that's how Equestria was made.

Thank you! That will save me some research. I do wonder how all the girls turned out as such different personalities. Find out why Fluttershy is like that, lol.

You're welcome. You'd never guess, but when Fluttershy was very little, she was very shy.

...
why are rocks so funny anyway?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Perhaps because they're so unfunny? When you expect something happy and fun, like Charlie Brown getting Halloween candy, or hearing how the crazy party pony Pinkie Pie grew up, then instead you get something bland and pointless like a rock, they seem funny?

Your face makes no sense.
