Who is Pinkie Pie?
Pinkie Pie is the show's comic engine and the character Lauren Faust used to establish that the relaunch was not going to behave itself. She breaks the fourth wall, ignores physics when it suits a joke, and produces objects from nowhere without explanation, and the series simply declines to account for any of it. Her assigned virtue is laughter, which the writing takes more seriously than it sounds: several of her better episodes are about the pressure of being the person expected to be relentlessly cheerful, and what happens when that person is not. Her background is a grey, joyless rock farm, which is the setup for the origin of her whole personality — she decided to be like this.
