The Characters of MLP:FiM (Pinkie Pie)

(Picture by johnjoseco)

Who is Pinkie Pie? Pinkie Pie or Pinkamena Diane Pie is a hyperactive pink earth pony. She loves parties, cakes, candies, but most of all she loves to make people smile! Heck, she as a PARTY CANNON. It's a cannon she uses to transport all her party supplies super fast. She even has a song on the show dedicated to her love of making people smile! Take a look...
   
At first glance, Pinkie looks like the kind of pony who is immune to negative feelings, like sadness or anger for example. She looks and sounds like the most annoying, and the dumbest of the main cast. She doesn't stop talking! Also, what's with her and singing about smiling and making people happy? You can't be happy all the time. What the heck is their to like about this pony?

Well for starters, Pinkie is actually capable of feeling negative emotions. If one were to watch certain episodes, you can actually see her expressing feeling besides joy. We can actually see her being sad in the episodes called "Party of One" and "Too Many Pinkie Pies". In the episode "The Last Round Up" we can actually see her full on rage! I do not want to spoil why exactly she is expressing these emotions. So I guess you'll have to watch the episodes.

Yes, Pinkie can be loud, random, but she is far from dumb. Pinkie just has her own ways of solving problems. Really, Pinkie is just a man child (pony philly?), she expresses her emotions to extremes. She seeks fun and entertainment. In spite of this, Pinkie will still try to act like an adult from time to time ("Baby Cakes").

Her singing and preaching about smiling and being happy? What's wrong with that? It's not like she's singing about murder as well.

Pinkie Pie to Me

Pinkie Pie is one of my all favorite characters out of the main cast. I can really see a lot me in her. We both love to try to make people happy. We both say random things from time to time. We also express are attitudes in extremes. Yeah, my friends get annoyed with that sometimes, but my friends have come to accept me for my faults. I guess from episode to episode, Pinkie's friends got used to her quirks too.
