I don't know either, that was just his explanation. Not the words, the situations, he couldn't hear it because the voicecast hurt too much to hear through the pain.

Why did they change the title at the last minute? Anyway yes, and ...

>its slice of life spirit, about the details, the antics and messages
No. No it's not.

This is why I can't watch the show directly. If I wanted to see a bunch of bumbling bufoons screw up for lack of information and overinflated ego, I'd set up a webcam and re-watch my own antics, or any of my coworkers. I can't' stand stupidity and "slice of life" is only vaguely interesting because the stupidity is slightly different from what you would have done if you were the same pony.
FiM is a furry cartoon in a high-magic world. *that* is why I watch it. To wrap my head around the unirverse, the laws of magic, the question of hooves ... all of that fascinate me.
Stories follow naturally from the "slice of life" stupidity that was the Nightmare Moon Incident. Given the nature of pony, and how it differs from human, and given the nature of magic, and how it interacts with technology ... we have a set of options, and I firmly sided with the New Lunar Republic. That I lost does not add to the non-existant regret.
I am saddened that not too many want to pursue the question of "hooves, how do they work?" but I am not only not satisfied with the answer "they get by with hooves" I am positively offended that you imply I am mis-watching the show for coming to the conclusion that magic is so prevelant that earth ponies are unaware they have limited-range-levitation available to them.

I understand some want to live in a world full of marshmellows and simple garbage trailers so they can argue on a bridge. But I can do that here ... and I desparately want something different.
