Applejack may be my least favorite of the mane six, but I can tell you this, if I ever wanted a friend from the mane six, Applejack would be my second choice (after Twilight; I mean, I feel there would be so much we could learn from each other, plus we're incrediblyt alike). Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie would be too flakey, as fun as they'd be (especially Pinkie), Fluttershy would be too shy and meek to offer resistance to any of my ideas, or to be competitive with me (on the rare occasion I want to, lol), and Rarity... well, I'm just not a guy that's interested in fashion or looks, so there's probably not a lot that we have in common (other than our love of SHINY, but that's a trait I'm sure a lot of people/ponies share).

From an outside observer's standpoint, which is what we are when we watch the series, I can say Applejack is my least favorite of the mane six because she is simply the most stable (and in a way, that makes her the most boring) of those ponies; she just doesn't have the capacity to break down/freak out like the other five do (except for working herself to the bone, though that only kind of counts, I think), and it is that capacity to just lose it, to just kind of fall apart at the seams, in a way, that entertains me (I'm sure a lot of the American public would agree with me, or else tabloids wouldn't be so damned popular), though I do equally love seeing those characters pick themselves up and get started again. I know that sounds kind of harsh, but I do love Applejack (I really do!). However, it is exactly that stability that would make me seek her out second (after Twilight) if I ever made it to Equestria; she seems like the best friend material for me, after Twilight. Plus, she's always there to help stabilize her friends when they freak out (hey, someone's gotta be there to do it)
