That was a refreshing take on dragon hoarding that actually made a fair bit of sense.
All in all, great episode.
I loved how Fluttershy was able to keep up with RD and how stupidly powerful Twilight Sparkle is getting.
There are some who walk until their legs fail them and they fall to the ground. I find that respectable.
Then there are those who drag themselves further. I find that admirable.

I wonder if this means Spike will never age so long as he never really collects any possessions, or if that's a separate process. He never did grow wings when he got big in this episode.

It's a pretty commonly spoofed scene if nothing else, the kind of thing where you know it's a spoof and maybe even know what of despite not having seen the original. IE, I know when people make references to Silence of the Lambs though I've never actually seen the movie because you see spoofs of it all the time. Also I'm going to bet more kids get the King Kong reference than the Big Lebowski reference.

The musical numbers are one of my favorite things about the show.
Ah, MLP: The only show where I think the musical numbers are any good. How long until the next episode hits youtube?

Well, it's been mentioned and shown that Spike has grown since he hatched, so it's possible that a dragon's natural growth is a lot slower.
Also, that episode was way, way better the second time around. With friends. And a stash.

lol, what corpses said.
I know that they try their hardest to make sure that pony is said, but I definitely noticed that because the whole everybody/everypony thing really bugged me at first.

The multi-colored code on Link's monitor was a nice touch.

Perhaps only the really old dragons grow wings with their greed... Kind of like how you have to ask to super size your big mac... A large just doesn't cut it...
Or maybe there are different types of dragons in Equestria.

There is that, though I thought they said that Dragons grew because of their hoards... I may have to rewatch it... does anyone have the exact line that Twilight says?

Growth and physical maturity are entirely separate in dragons, it seems.

That too would make sense... Though it doesn't make sense for something to not be born with a physical feature (barring certain frog-like creatures, etc..)... Eventually Spike would have to grow wings, and THEN learn how to use them... I mean it's not like other flying animals begin life without at least forms of the limb that eventually work...

Celestia really hates dragons, and sent their biological functions to the metaphorical moon.
With magic.
Maaaaaaagiiiiiiiiiiic.
