Grimdark Musings


I heard about book vloggers, and decided to check out a few by name, which was
cool, but then I did something I probably shouldn’t have, and just typed Grimdark
into the YouTube search bar.

I never in my life realized how much Ponyville seems to be grimdark, setting what
I would think of as the My Little Pony world on its ear, or perhaps ass over
ears. Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, and Pinkie Pie done got dipped into a vat of pure
evil, and there’s nothing like evisceration and dismemberment to brighten your
darkest day. Maggots coming out of where? Anyone?

Wow! is about the only word I can and should use at my age to describe this
phenomenon, where the distorted and rabid frolic freely on the outskirts of
Ponyville with every beloved figurine ever made.

Secret Wish Horses and Fantasy Fillies take on a whole new meaning. It’s actually
kind of cool.

Whatever happened to hardcore Smurfette porn? Maybe, 50 Shades of Smurfette?
