How come everyone thinks that ponies have to be almost exactly the same in order to form a relationship?  
I don’t get it.  
Ruby and Saph are in a relationship and they’re COMPLETE opposites.  
That, and Raridash has had way more moments than things like raritwi for instance

Some shippers have no problem shipping things just for fun because they like the pairings, not because they actually think the ship is canon or supported by canon (trying to cite “evidence” for it constantly). Which is completely valid of course, whatever makes people happy.

I never said once, anywhere, that people shouldn’t be allowed to ship Raridash. The opposite actually, I said very clearly in my post below that people should be able to ship whatever they want. And they should. But people also shouldn’t post things like this picture or try to bring up every inconsequential moment that exists from the cartoon in a discussion or argument in order to prove how “canon” a ship is and expect to be taken seriously is basically what I’m getting at.

Shipping or not, they need more screentime together. You’s think Rarity would be a bit close with a pony who’s saved her flank multiple times.

“ But to try to argue “evidence” or justification for this ship with canon moments (like this screencap) just comes off as laughable, yeah. “
 
Because that’s totally not what every single shipper of any fandom has done, no matter how small a moment.

I said pretty much the same thing on a thread the other day.
 
Rarity and Dash do have some things in common. But you can grasp at straws and say the same for pretty much any two characters out there, if you try hard enough, and if those things haven’t ever really united them as friends, why would they unite them as lovers? Canon reality is neither of them have ever been shown to make much effort to get to know each other much outside of their group activities, they’re just casual friends with each other and both seem perfectly happy to leave it at that.
 
That’s not to say that you can’t ship them though. People have shipped characters for way less, even characters that have never met or that don’t actually have any canon personalities at all. And that’s fine. But to try to argue “evidence” or justification for this ship with canon moments (like this screencap) just comes off as laughable, yeah.

It’s shit like this that always remind me how petty this fandom can be.

Sometimes you should open your eyes widely and stop making the fandom into a dating service.

It’s a cute ship, but on the other hand, they’re all cute. Rarity gets a few lady boners for Rainbow Dash but for the most part they have to put up with each other.

No, please continue; you’re on the right track.
 
If people want to enjoy shipping art or fics, fine, go for it. But trying to justify it with canon stuff like this just makes you look desperate and obsessive.
