Useless fact of the day: it took 20 days to go from the first million to the second (March 17th to April 6th), but since million 6 (Mai 17th) it averaged at about 5 days per million.
Derpy IS Superman. That's how she knows that you can just fly around the planet and time will reverse! As for teaching that to a muffin... well, muffins can fly too.
This makes sense if you think that she's just Clark Kenting by pretending to be dumb, like how Clark Kent pretends to be a reporter. EVERYTHING IS REVEALED!
Ah, so this is how Superman figured out time travel, from Mr. Muffin the magical space and time travelling muffin of infinite wisdom, taught by the great philosopher of Equestria, Derpy.
I love how it seems like she's talking to the reader and her other eye is derped, but she's actually looking at the muffin with that eye and the one looking at us is derped.
That is -exactly- the kind of gag I want them to use on the show.
@Anonymous The comics don't really have anything to do with the hit number; not since SpeccySY has been doing them, I think, and possibly before that. It's just a regular comic, with the number of megahits mentioned somewhere in the background. (Here, it's 'Lessen 16' on the blackboard.)
As Carl Sagan once said (Disregard any sources that say otherwise): Our galaxy is composed of gas and dust and ponies. Millions and millions of ponies.
Um. A physics brony here (no, not that one), and I probably ought to point out that Derpy is not far from being correct here. Her idea is a little derped up, but she's not talking total nonsense.
Okay, so you can't go back to the dinosaurs this way, obviously. But if two aeroplanes with EXACTLY matched clocks fly around the earth in opposite directions, when you put the clocks next to each other again THE TIMES ARE DIFFERENT! This is due to an application of special relativity, and technically means that one clock is now "back in time" compared to its partner (and indeed any clock that's stayed still on the ground).
The real derp here is that this "slowing of time" occurs when you fly in the direction of rotation, not against it.
If the muffin went faster than the speed of light, it would be possible, but knowing how derpy is, she might actually make it do that! (even though forbidden by relativity.)
... She does have a point. Also at last commenter, the very fact that time gets manipulated when approaching the light speed makes it impossible to cross that speed barrier.

im actually first
ReplyDeleteI don't like stupid derpy. Clumsy is fine, but stupid is mean.
ReplyDeleteI had no idea Superman was a muffin.
ReplyDeletePeople who claim first don't get muffins.
ReplyDeleteAwwww, Derpy <3
ReplyDeleteToo bad I don't have wings :(
ReplyDeleteHappy 16 mil EqD! Man, I think at this rate, we might actually hit 20 mil by the time season 2 airs :D
I was going to crack a joke, but Roman500 basically already used the joke I was going to use.

ReplyDeleteShe's not stupid, she just watched the superman movies.

ReplyDelete@Anonymous
ReplyDeleteAnd that's why
Mr Muffin: WHY DID YOU EAT MY ENTIRE FAMILY DERPY!?!
ReplyDeleteDerpy IS Superman. That's how she knows that you can just fly around the planet and time will reverse! As for teaching that to a muffin... well, muffins can fly too.

I really hope we do hit 20 million by the time season 2 airs..
ReplyDeleteWhen is season 2 gonna air, again?
So THAT'S how you travel through time!
ReplyDeleteWhen Derpy teaches ..people lisen
ReplyDeleteTROLL SCIENCE PONIFIED!! Soon....
ReplyDeleteAh, so this is how Superman figured out time travel, from Mr. Muffin the magical space and time travelling muffin of infinite wisdom, taught by the great philosopher of Equestria, Derpy.

Ditzy physics > troll physics.
ReplyDeleteOf course... it all makes sense now... Derpy Hooves, YOU ARE A GENIUS!
ReplyDeleteDerpy-tier troll logic
ReplyDeleteCongrats on 16 mil!
ReplyDeleteTOOT TOOT.
ReplyDeleteHooray for pageviews.
ReplyDeleteDerpy traveling back in time? Dr. Hooves and MacGuyver Pony not amused.
ReplyDeleteDerpy science!
ReplyDeleteWhat? Is 16 a joke on time travel, or something? Anyone mind explaining it to me, because I don't get it.
ReplyDeleteSince when has Derpy been a troll physicist?
ReplyDeleteOnward! 20 million by August 1st. 30 million page views by Season Two.
ReplyDeleteIf Derpy went back in time
ReplyDeleteEverypony would be like

Aw! The Superman approach as applied by Derpy style.
ReplyDeleteHappy 16 Million!!
Man they're coming faster and faster.
I love the reference to Superman here.
ReplyDeleteI love how it seems like she's talking to the reader and her other eye is derped, but she's actually looking at the muffin with that eye and the one looking at us is derped.
ReplyDeleteThat is -exactly- the kind of gag I want them to use on the show.
@Shadow Phoenix
ReplyDeleteLooks like it!
But if you cross the International Date Line, then all your progress will be set back by a day.
ReplyDelete...so make sure you fly around that, okay?
Take this song
ReplyDeletePut Derpy Hooves instead of Suzie Q
IT RHYMES!

ReplyDeleteHey, it worked for Superman.
ReplyDeleteSo I guess time travel works like this:
ReplyDelete1: Go opposite the rotation of the earth
2: Reach 88 miles per hour
3: Yell "TOOT TOOT" when you're over the north pole
4: ...
5: Profit?
It's a parasprite? It's a balloon?
ReplyDeleteIt's... Supermare!!
Isn't that the Superman theory of time travel?
ReplyDelete......weren't we at 15 million 2-3 days ago?
ReplyDeleteAt this rate we'll hit 100 million some time around season 2's first episode.
Eh, Superman had to get the idea from somewhere.
ReplyDeleteUm. A physics brony here (no, not that one), and I probably ought to point out that Derpy is not far from being correct here. Her idea is a little derped up, but she's not talking total nonsense.

Problem, time?
ReplyDeleteQuite.

Derpy is the best teahcer in the world!!!!!
