NEET/Misfit Thread

No.42285931 View ViewReplyLast 50OriginalReport
Well horses and horse-ettes (what few of you there are), it seems that I am once again having to make a new thread for our beloved NEETs. Surely some other brave anons will be willing to renew the NEET thread.

Anyways, here's the previous thread:
>>42154959

>What is this general?
NEET/Misfit Pone is a thread for ponies who despite their best efforts (or in some cases complete lack thereof) struggle to fit in with the rest of society.

>What sort of stories can you expect to find here?
• Slice of life stuff.
• Lots of odd cute ponies becoming the waifu stories.
• Lots of being the cute oddball pony stories.
• A few NEET-recovery stories.
• A lot of smut, if you're into that.
• Lots of ponies to get you started with a variety of personalities and quirks. Don't like one of them? Give another NEET a try!
• Much, much more!

>Quick rundown on the pre-existing ponies ITT:
Floor Bored - The OG OC NEET from the very first threads. Floor comes in all different forms, but she's typically portrayed as a horny and kinda dirty mare most of the time. (https://derpibooru.org/images/2321489)
Pardise Skies - Paradise is a pony who started off as a NEET but ends up going to univeristy in a PiE setting. She's very quiet, easily spooked, likes to wear clothes and speaks with a stutter. (https://derpibooru.org/images/2289220)
Moon Dancer - Huge bookworm.
Taku - Friend of Floor who is *very* into anime. (https://derpibooru.org/images/1722376)
Goldie Mops - Goldie is another friend of Floors, only she's into kaiju and big monsters. Speaks with a cute lisp and seems very adorkable. (https://ponerpics.org/images/6192935)
Chimney Peep - Floor's sports nerd friend (Pic above, pony with the hat and lazy eye)
Home Sick - Probably the least covered NEET. (https://derpibooru.org/images/1727410)
Wallflower Blush, of Equestria girls fame but as a pone. (https://derpibooru.org/images/1658572)
Cuppa Noodle - Cuppa is a NEET snekpony who likes cup noodles and very tight hugs. (https://derpibooru.org/images/1892447)
Cipher the Programmer - The super paranoid overthinking male NEET-pony (https://derpibooru.org/images/2236987)
Dot Matrix - A pony who is into retro gaming. (https://derpibooru.org/images/2577975)
Anon Mare - Anon Mare is entirely up to your own interpretation. Same premise as Anon Filly but all grown up. The self-insert pony.
Writer's Block - A NEET pony whos background is currently unclear. Know anything about her? Let us know ITT (https://derpibooru.org/images/2561414)
Starry Sails - A chubby mare who lives in a PiE kind of setting. Friends with Anon. (https://derpibooru.org/images/2657594)
Synthwave - A femcolt/trap NEET that enjoys making electronic music. Very laid back, somewhat flat in tone and expression. (https://ponybooru.org/images/3223846)

Some guidelines/restrictions:
-No porn
Pretty self-explanatory. NSFW and suggestive submissions are welcomed of course, this just refers to straight up porn images and videos.
-Anthro/barbies: If it’s a one off gag it’s fine. Can’t be the focus of the clip. Exceptions will be discussed by the thread.
-No politics or fandom drama
This may be somewhat lenient depending on what the submission is, but we want to avoid too much /pol/ circlejerking or submissions that spend time bitching about Twitterfags or the like.
>All submissions must be in 1080p and should keep their original aspect ratio. Letterbox them when needed. No portrait submissions.
>No static image submissions.
>Submission length
Keep it brief. Anything longer than 1 minute will be evaluated on a case by case basis.

>G5 inclusion
lol. Is there even any content to use? If there are any submissions, they will be decided on a case-by-case basis.
>AI generated videos
-Evaluated on a case by case basis. If it has merit, it will be considered. If it’s just slop, it probably won’t make the final cut.

Consider the following scenario:

- Human males make up 50% of the world population
- Human females make up 25% of the world population
- Mares make up the remaining 25% of the world population
- Offspring from human–mare pairings will be either mares or human males
- Human–human pairings will produce only humans
- Mares behave exactly as they do in the show and, despite everything, they will never be corrupted by the environment

Despite mares being nicer and kinder, human females still hold the advantage due to sexual attraction being hardwired into the human male brain. Do you think mares would be able to overtake the human female population, or would they go extinct?
