Talk:What About Discord?/@comment-23858349-20151108151302/@comment-5837525-20151108210457

I'll contend that this episode's lesson was good, but did Discord have to be the one to teach it? Twilight's friends tell her it's okay to be jealous as long as she owns up to tha jealousy -- that would've been enough. But to then have Discord reveal that he orchestrated the whole thing only makes Twilight a little justified in her paranoia.

Looking back at episodes like Princess Twilight Sparkle and Three's A Crowd, it raises the question: why is Discord suddenly in sort of a pseudo-teacher role? What makes him an expert about being a princess?
