Talk:Sunset Shimmer/@comment-7345250-20161213045004

The past month's comments illustrate well but one of the many reasons why I am so miserably tired of this character. In summary...


 * "Sunset Shimmer should become an alicorn if she goes back to Equestria."


 * "Sunset could have sensed" something completely unrelated to her... by prophetic dreams?


 * "Sunset Shimmer is Celestia's daughter!?"


 * "So, Sunset Shimmer's the Element of Empathy. I LOVE IT!!!!"

Everyone just wants to see the character given something. Give Sunset an Element. Give Sunset wings. Give Sunset a crown. Give Sunset a cool secret. Give Sunset more super-powers. Bah!

I'd hug a cactus if it meant we would all slow down and ask whether Sunset Shimmer needs, deserves, or shows any sign of being worth these things for any good reason.

Why is this so? Do you folks identity so much with the character that you've projected your own desires onto her? Do you believe the hot mess of Equestria Girls, with all its nonchalance and "I almost don't care what they are" stances, is a greenlight to any and all other senselessness?

Why do you do this?
