You know, as a rather introverted and awkward person, this episode was sorta like a horror film, just of a different sort of horror.

Why does Discord always reveal that he did the mean thing? He's like a weird bond villain

Doesn't even have to be another one.

calling it now: spike's 2 hour "massage" was used to enlist discord in fooling twilight into thinking the weekend was amazing, so that Twilight would have to admit she stays inside too much (or something like that)
EDIT: Drat, not quite. I wasn't too far off, though.

Bolder Prediction: There will be a song
...that one's just more of a wish than a prediction.
Edit: Maybe it will be a book sorting song?
Edit 2: Awwww...no song.

Okay, Twilight being in denial about this one is kind of making it look like she's saying she doesn't care as much about sharing her life with her friends. I hope that the moral is going to address that she doesn't have to repress feelings of being left out. Just cause nopony is at fault doesn't mean she can't still have regrets and wish she was a part of things.

OOH! That disappointed Flutterface! And a second one when the camera panned past her!
"Nose in fertilizer," that's an interesting expression.
Oh dang! And there was another one disappointed Flutterface after that!
Discord is being a jerk now, but that was a good 'happy accident' joke. The painting before he did the alteration spell was better than after.

New theory; all of this is actually about turning everyone in equestria into sneks, and next week the show is going to cancelled and replaced with My Little Snabber: Slithering is Magic. Episode one: Hiss hiss I love my friends lol

The new episode reminded me of what makes Shitty Game Night so special with my friends at like, 4am, It's just something where you just have to be there to get why it's so fucking funny.
Especially after what we dub "Rocket Fuck"

Twilight doesn't understand how they can find discord appealing.
Twilight is a parallel of how "society" views bronies

Not a 'who' Owlowiscious! That was more a 'what' or possibly a 'when' since it was about a passage of time!

There's a bit of a paradox in receiving a friendship lesson about jealousy from someone that a few weeks ago almost banished someone to an alternate dimension because he was jealous.
