1“the house they were in was listed for sale. bookcase was in one of the photos.”
2Bronies are basically are subculture of basement-dwellers that are infatuated with the My Little Pony franchise. They are known for being one of the most prominently autistic fandoms around and produce many lolcows.
3They can range from slightly normal to outright cringe.
4Since the horsefucker fandom covers a wide range of exceptional individuals, I can't really describe them in that much detail, so I'll let you guys do the talking.
5It would help if you actually described some of such lolcows in your post.
6TL;DR... This is all kinds of fucked up and foolhardy - these ponyfags think they are some military force to be reckoned with (even though some of these people deserve to be bullied, for simply being so stupid and narrow-minded...). Too bad it might actually be working, thanks to the increase of SJWs who are associating themselves with these ponyfags.
7Issues involving social justice almost always seemed to mean something until people like this got involved with it, thinking they are stop real world issue that DO MATTER - like bullying. They're only encouraging the rise of more bullies as an end result - of their stupidity. Oh, well. So much for the concept actually aiming to benefit society rather than detriment it...
8Then again, it was already in bad enough shape before these idiots showed up. But that's tumblr for you.

10This ponyfaggotry is a complete dishonor to the murder of an innocent (but not fully proven guilty) man - Sorry for A - Logging, BTW, but it's a goddamn FACT.
11As I said, even if the artist was just paying respects and all, this can dishonor Brown. Last thing he would need is also having furries join in but that is just going off topic. Really, if the brony just wanted to pay respects, he should of drawn something else or just leave some text.
12And by draw something else - develop your skills. But that would take too much time. In reality - a few kind words for the man would have sufficed.
13have to be a zebra? Does black always equal zebra in MLP?
14There was a kerfuffle about whether purple is black in the mlp world. It was or wasn't depending on whether they wanted to call MLP racist or not. I'm not even making this up.
15I'm sure the artist means well, but did the ponified Brown have to be a zebra? Does black always equal zebra in MLP?
16Oh yeah, I remember that in one of the simulators. Some autists thought about that and came to the conclusion that Twilight was like half-black or something because of the stripes in her hair or something like that.
17Since there is now a new pony thread, I'm gonna leave this here: in light of what is happening in Ferguson.

19This really reminds me of Mr. Chandler's personal MLP designs. Only this annoys me more, since you're adding something weird and stale to something tired and stale.
20As for bronies helping people, you do have some that do it genuinely because they want to help but then you also have those that only help to "prove that not all bronies are bad because they donated to a kid who tried to commit suicide." Not trying to say the help was unneeded (really, it did help the kid) but it kinda makes the good will of it moot if they only did it to get positive PR. Really, those who just like to watch the show and just draw fan-art may as well be the decent kind, since you got all the others that are bad, be it those who make recolors with cliched backgrounds or those that would literally spam on the Twitters of those who work on FiM, such as these guys:
21The only thing worse than the average MLP fan is the anti-fans. Watching them fight is pretty hilarious. I guess the guys who just like watching and drawing shit based on the show are okay. It actually apparently helped some people. I don't know if this is good or bad.
22Oh, I disliked bronies when they began to spam their stuff all over the place and then get pissy when people tell them to knock it off. There's liking something and then there's being an obnoxious fuck about it, which is what they did post haste.
23Just don't be like this (like @Lord BalderDash here)
24Depends. Which is worse in your eyes: the people who devote their lives to a cartoon and can't hide it or the people who have spent four years being so massively butthurt at a single mention of the word "pony?"
25Well, there's this, I guess. This was in response to a Humble Bundle of the pony comics.
26Depends. Which is worse in your eyes: the people who devote their lives to a cartoon and can't hide it or the people who have spent four years being so massively butthurt at a single mention of the word "pony?" Even being slightly apologetic towards people like bronies and furries, I'm not entirely sure.
27I feel kind of bad because when they started up, I was on board with it because a bunch of guys into a girl's cartoon seemed endearing. Then the overwhelming specialness (Guys? Watching a cartoon for... little girls? UNHEARD OF!) went to their heads and everything was ruined forever.
28I suppose it was inevitable as it spread beyond 4chan's /co/. It doesn't surprise me that Gamergaters are thinking of enlisting them and Bitcoin guys to the cause.
29With their powers combined, they make up the trifecta of insufferable internet nerds.
30People who devote their lives to it, because the other folks just get annoyed when they see it and don't let it control their very existence.
31This thread is for making fun of bronies. Not the entire rest of the world that doesn't devote their life to a half hour toy commercial aimed at little girls
32Holy shit do I need to put a trigger warning for you in case I post pony images from now on? What the fuck difference is there from that and any other reaction image? I picked it for no specific reason. Fuck's sakes, I didn't realize it'd cause you so much distress, or else I would've posted more.
33Difference is that it's ponies and ponies remind people of sperginess. And the fact that they make everything have a pony version upsets some people.
34Again, I still think they're almost equal. It's just spergs fighting other spergs about who is less spergy. Protip: I've never seen one of these antis that wasn't also a fan of some other spergy franchise.
35Just from what I've seen, though. I get why people could hate them. I hate quite a few myself, but I'm mostly neutral.
36that wouldn't be SJW's painting a group of spergs as Satan incarnate, that would just make it too easy).
37As for what you've seen, really it should at least then give you an idea as to why we have this thread about bronies. Speaking of bronies, here is a random fact: the name itself is bad enough for some that those of 4Chan /MLP/ (and 8Chan's /Pone/) board prefer a name like ponyfag or horsefucker (they are self-aware of how stupid and such they are in being fans of the show).
38Joey Jo-Jo Junior That's the worst name I ever heard True & Honest Fan
39I digress on the equality of them but damn if their constant fighting isn't annoying as shit.
40I don't like X because it makes real Zs like me look bad.
41Look at the trifecta of autism: gamergate, MLP, sanic
42Since we're talking about brony stuff, here's a fitting song, and better yet it's around the right time to show this one off.
43koinophilia. He also said those that drew the art of these horses were furries.
44Look at the trifecta of autism: gamergate, MLP, sonic
45And yeah, "horsefucker" and "ponyfag" are indeed things that people call themselves. At least they don't care, I guess?
46There is a guy who captures the essence of the brony fandom
47It's like, what are you even trying to prove, man? You watch a cartoon aimed at little girls. Deal with it.
48Considering the girl cartoon part, wasn't there girl cartoon that guys did watch before MLP:FiM? I mean, if Power Puff Girls counts, then already that would show that bronies weren't really the first group of guys to watch a cartoon for girls. Really, that specialness thing can be one reason why the fanbase can be unlikeable: Good for them if they like the show but really, no one is gonna think you special for liking a kids show, especially if you got other adults who like watching cartoons.
49I think what annoys me most about bronies is that they're quick to dismiss and talk shit about the original cartoon and toy line, the ones I grew up with. It just seems like a spiteful way to distance themselves from the pre-brony pony fandom, which was mostly made up of collectors and modders.
50Same here, I watch cartoons but that doesn't mean I think I'm special just because I watch a show aimed at a specific age. Besides, you got a lot of adults watching cartoons such as Spongebob, Adventure Time, and the like. That should show the bronies aren't as special as these horse-show loving spergs think.
51Just try telling them that though, and they'll probably just flip their shit and deny it. As I said, they're a special breed of idiot.
52I watch cartoons all the time and you don't see me calling myself special. I just chalk it up to Bronies being a special breed of dumb.
53Probably becuase the shows didn't have giant anime-styled eyes and small snouts (and to be honest, I'd rather the new ones over the uglier ones from the earlier generations from a design standpoint). Also, collectors and modders don't want to fuck ponies, which I'd like to think pissed off the Bronies.
54That being said, I actually knew someone from my jewelry making gig that was into the show too (he was also a furry, but was actually a very nice guy). Even he thought the shit the Bronies did were stupid.
55decades. Transformers has a pretty sizable female fanbase, for instance.
56Another reason why bronies can be seen as disgusting and/or creepy and whatnot.
57The fact that only SOME of the people responded with disgust instead of EVERYONE. And there are people supporting this. Bronies have a horrible autism hugbox that keeps encouraging each other to do dumber and more disgusting stuff.
58I studied animation, so of course I still watch cartoons. I think bronies want to be respected for breaking gender boundaries or whatever, when little girls have been fans of shows aimed at boys for like decades. Transformers has a pretty sizable female fanbase, for instance.
59But yeah. Point is, I don't like the self-congratulatory attitude the bronies have while looking down on the original fans because they're not into clopping. Shit is stupid as hell.
60But seriously, this has been a thing for a long friggin' time. Examples for boys liking girl shows include She-Ra, the older MLP generations, Inuyasha (it is a shoujo manga last I checked), PowerPuff Girls, and so on. No idea what's so special about MLP for that role to be honest.
61@Meowthkip said (and some other users had mentioned as well when they mentioned the fandom origins in the old brony thread). Only special thing MLP had was getting a start through a 4chan board I guess.
62I guess the internet is to be thanked for that. Really, the fandom came out from 4Chan, from the /co/ board as @Meowthkip said (and some other users as well when they mentioned it in the old brony thread). Only special thing MLP had was getting a start through a 4chan board I guess.
63I imagine the scientists that invented Arpanet are sobbing into a bucket of ice cream at what their creation has done.
64This is a new breed of autism. Also, I threw up. Why keep cum, much less ruin a perfectly good mlp toy with that shit?!‽‽
65Agreed on the bolded part. Vaguely disgusted with the rest of the sentence.
66I studied animation, so of course I still watch cartoons. I think bronies want to be respected for breaking gender boundaries or whatever, when little girls have been fans of shows aimed at boys for like decades.
67The old toys are more interesting to me just because there were a larger variety of ponies. Gen 4 hasn't put out as many toys of ponies besides the main six and only have like, two different poses. Gen 1 got really creative with their ponies and non-pony friends, going friggin' nuts with sea ponies, baby ponies, ponies with flapping wings, ponies with jewel eyes... Gen 4 is cute but Gen 1 is the one I'm going to be looking back on with fondness and will probably wind up collecting.
68I meant the bronies are into clopping and the original fans aren't.
69And suicide is never the answer. The answer is always Fuck the Pain Away
70And this is why 4Chan shall not be missed. Unless this is 8Chan. Also,.
71Holy shit do I need to put a trigger warning for you in case I post pony images from now on? What the fuck difference is there from that and any other reaction image? Being completely honest here, I picked it for no specific reason. Fuck's sakes, I didn't realize it'd cause you so much distress, or else I would've posted more.
72I remember a few years back a friend of mine told me about "bronies" and I thought "thats gay" and I thought nothing more of it. Now they are boiling pony figurines in their own cum.
73Because it brought out some white-knights or something? Don't worry, that can be fixed. Soon, we'll go back to talking about bronies in how they can do creepy things such as putting a pony toy in a jar of dry fluid or how some of them sperg about a stupid head-canon.
74I'm officially sorry I ever made fun of the older generations of this series (If I ever had, that is!) for simply not being my cup of tea - Hell, it's not like the older Transformers shows ever grabbed me, either, despite having some good moments, I, as a modern cartoon watcher, wish to see more of in today's efforts, instead of all these stereotypes, unfortunate implications, and pandering the usual seem to be cursed with...
75At the same time, I can't help but feel that once things have died down - this show will become as unpopular as the previous gens these people seem to enjoy mocking, even though it's only thanks to earlier efforts that someone had the courage to try and, in their own way, make something more open to all audiences and engaging on their level, too... Too bad it had to be this show.
76People like this don't fully understand the damage they are doing to themselves over this shit. I'm not going to say everything was better in the 70's or 80's (BECAUSE IT WASN'T!), but I have to wonder if there would be any fans for this newer generation stuff if it had stuck to conventions cartoons are maligned now for in that set of decades.
77Eh seems like par for the course for a typical mlp fan
78You know what else - some of those cartoons I njoy sitting down to.... A lot more people hate them than like them, just because there isn't enough pony in them or some BS like that. Pathetic.
79Yeah, I'm not the slightest bit surprised, to be honest. This is pretty much exactly the kind of exceptional shit we all know MLP fans are constantly doing. Don't really see why everyone's freaking out about it, you came into a thread about My Little Pony. What exactly did you expect?
80I can't believe I used to associate myself with these guys.
81Hey, every fandom will have its own creeps. Bronies are no exceptions and like the Sonic fandom, they can have a unique factor in creepiness and such.
82The only escape is to ban every brony and send them to the glue factory. Start here, then move out.
83I know, it's just for some reason, the creeps in the brony fandom are particularly noticeable. I mean what the hell? Poor RD is encrusted with boiled semen. That's just ain't right.
84I said it on another thread, but MLP is so wide reaching and appealing to so many audiences that it's bound to attract weirdos.
85MLP, Sonic, and pokemon is basically the holy trinity of autism.
86Actually a bit surprising others are not trying to latch on the autism bux train by studying them and making more crap to appeal to autists.
87”one time i gave a blowjob in a mall bathroom so i could buy yugioh cards”
88Those that do make money would be those that make commissions off the likes of bronies via plushies and such.
89That basically sums it up. They are fans of talking animals, animals that come from a kids show.
90Down with the people who say I can't write my erotic fiction of cartoon horses!
91Yeah, down with people who banned me from a convention just because I did something that warranted it, like leaving a dirty diaper in a hot-tub. (that happened at a furry convention according to one but it can happen to a brony convention)
92What a load of horse shit (pun unabashedly intended). Princess Molestia was a terrible idea and anyone who would want it back should be kept away from children. Get the fuck over it already!
93Listen, a hot tub at a furry convention is a red flag, I'd be surprised if there wasn't a diaper.
94I assume the same for bronies, who let's face it, are basically furries who like horses.
95EDIT FOR C-NO: I think their message goes towards anarchism. Axe Hasbro entirely to have only fan-made content from what I can decipher.
96What they describe is the complete opposite of nationalism.
97Nationalism calls for increased law enforcement, tight control over business and practices, militarism, and overall massive authoritarian control.
98I'm guessing they pulled the term from /pol/ and just thought it sounded edgy enough to use.
99Edit for @Glaive onsidering that, having a message towards anarchism, their own fan-made content of MLP would mostly consist of a few scant gems and a huge pile of dung, mostly dung, wouldn't it?
100Two words, plus some more... FUCK YOU. Real socialists have better things to do that whine about a kids show appealing to that and not your sick and pathetic fetishes. Piss off, please.
101AND the whining from the spergs of its periphery fanbase.
102I watched that brony doccumentary. I think DeLancie has embraced the fandom. He did school some redneck dad which I thought was pretty awesome.
103I wonder what would happen if you told the people who had an unhealthy interest in the show, "Dude. It's just a TV show".
104In other news, even Star Trek is affected by the MLP fandom. Sometimes, when John DeLancie's performances as Q are brought up, some will relate it to MLP, because he later played some villain or something in the cartoon. Others really don't like that and tell them to stop posting about MLP in Star Trek discussions. Apparently DeLancie doesn't mind the brony fandom, at least as a whole.
105Also, that poster is pretty much saying, "death to the people who bring us MLP and provide the show for free in the first place."
106I think bronies are in their Burned Fur stage right now.
107Brony fandom is pretty much just the furry fandom except moving at a faster rate.
108I think bronies are in their Burner Fur stage right now.
109What else can bronies look forward to aside from reruns and fan-content? Some new version/generation of MLP?
110Whoever makes Generation 5 is going to have to answer to a lot more grown men then anyone who works for Hasbro should.
111Considering that, the day gen 5 comes and bronies do not like it, there could be a storm of rage and sperg. Then again, one would wonder if there would be any left that still have interest in the series.
112the shitstorm will be glorious when Gen 5 looks like Gen 3
113Then how many stages would they have before reaching what furries have now? Even then, they probably won't last long as furries since this version of MLP will come to an end in 4 to 5 years. The show will be over and what else can bronies look forward to aside from reruns and fan-content? Some new version/generation of MLP?
114We've got that going on with pony fans wanting to distance themselves from bronies, as well as attacks on bronies from female fans and people who aren't into clopping.
115It might take a few years before things settle down and the remaining bronies become self-depreciating and a bit more chill... that is, if they're even still around by then.
116When the show ends, Bronies will break the internet with their butthurt.
117In regards to the show can't go on forever, true to that. Really, bronies won't last long as the furries if Hasbro doesn't keep FiM going and it will eventually have to reach a stop at one point.
118Andrew Noel Schaefer Mentally ill goblin who only talks about soda.
119Probably the most exceptional thing I've read in months. Aside from the stupid ass pinko commie overtones, MLP doesn't belong to the fans. It belongs to Hasbro and they have every right to do whatever it takes to protect their intellectual property and copyrights. I don't blame them from wanting to keep perverted grown-ass men from making pornography of their cartoon for PRETEEN GIRLS. If I had a daughter and knowing what I know about bronies, I would seriously consider keeping her from watching the show, or at very least monitoring her if she decided to go online to look up anything about the show lest she come across some greasy neckbeard shut-in's clopfiction.
120Sonic the Hedgehog is a older series with a fanbase almost (*ALMOST*) as obsessive and has been going on since the 90s with no sense of slowing down.
121@The Dude summed up my thoughts on these freaks perfectly.
122Watch a kids' show all you want. I like Doctor Who. Big deal. Like pastel pony cartoons? Great. More power to you. But waxing one's bone to pastel ponies and thinking you're so goddamn special for watching a kids' show is stupid. Shoehorning your pony fetish into everything just makes it even worse. Just buy some toys and STFU already. We get it and don't care.
123To be fair, that specific pony is from generation 4. the other one isn't. Don't ask me how I know this.
124As far as I know from a bit of research, those toy's came from the middle of Gen 3. which according to fans (that weren't from Gen 4) was bad. (Some version of the show where the horses are babies.)
125Actually, that does look good. Perhaps the bronies that give unwarrented complaint are jealous in not having something like that.
126Something about such a mundane premise being carried out with brightly colored talking horses amuses me.
127”If I want to make fun of a weird person, all I need to do is look in the mirror and laugh.”
128I use to think Furries, the yiffing weird fetish ones, were the worst group on the internet but Bronies take the cake. At least you didn't see furry shit in most internet sites or even public places. Bronies like to show off their "dedication" everywhere they go.
129At least Bronies like that Jordan White provided me with some cringey yet funny stuff.
130Ohhhhoho, you're new here, ain't you? There's fouler things than Bronies in the deep places of the web. I guarantee, Bronies don't come close to bottom of the barrel 'round these here part.
131Try diaperfurs, deeker, anything in the DA Horrors thread, PUAs, SJWs, the smurf torture porn guy...
132Before this subject dies (Only because I don't mind being late to the punch on those damn masks and my honest opinion of how much they suck!), I just want to throw this out there RIGHT FUCKING NOW: Guy Fawkes, awesome British Revolutionary that he is, does not deserve to be insulted in such a way. EVER.
133Dude tried to blow up Parliament so that Catholicism would be the official religion of England or something. I don't think he thought the whole thing out that well.
134Not just horsefuckers but also those who think wearing the mask makes them part of Anonymous. Basically, Fawkes is tainted by bronies, wannabes, and edgelords.
135As an aside, what case of bronies spamming their shit is worst case of spamming their shit? For me it was the fact that some asshole decided to replace all of the FFVI characters with ponies in an utterly pointless mod of the game. I used to get a link to that every day on YT, despite never looking at a single video relating to MLP.
136Agreed. It's such a shame that Fawkes is being tainted by trillby wearing 2D horsefuckers. Bless his soul. :/
137Edit: It's the same as wannabe commies worshiping Che Guevara
138One thing about the anon pony mask, whoever spends the money on it completely deserves it
139Geez louise the fandom has hit a point where i'm not even surprised this happened.
140Well, it's from /mlp/ anyway, so expect some insane shit like this:
141.SpoilerTarget">Spoiler: Abandon all hope ye who enter thee
142*If you seen this episode, you'd at least would know the part where the horse actually bites the hot dog. Either way, this is probably what the 31% would imagine, as in without Cartman saying no.
143”Im sure you would be comfortable with Sodomy if you gave it a try”
144Brony fandom came from 4Chan. The name brony was from between two guys. One said ponybro and the other said "more like brony". They came up with "love and tolerate" to raise the ire of trolls and haters. I think the best way to say it is that it was just some fandom that had an interest in FiM until it started getting the things it has such as the spergery and disgusting things. Even then, those can be found in every facet of MLP, whether it's bronies that have tumblr hugboxs and MLP-centered forums or disgusting anons from /MLP/ and /Pone/ that want to put pony toys in jars of baked semen.
145tl;dr Fandom started on 4chan, may as well attracted them from the beginning with some elements from the fandom being a joke (i.e. "love and tolerate" etc.)
1464Chan's responsible for this nonsense, huh? Not surprised in the slightest...
147I wasn't there for the first brony thread, how did bronies come around? Was it a joke that sad people flocked to and lashed on or did it just attract them from the beginning like Chris?
148Bronies started on 4chans /co/, the board for cartoons and comics. Like any other cartoon it was discussed there and found its circle of fans. It was a bit bigger than normal because the novelty value of a My Little Pony cartoon being good but it was nothing out of the ordinary. Then word of mouth spread well beyond 4Chan and the fanbase grew. Which was still fine, it all went to hell once the media latched onto it trying to turn it into a narrative with the premise "Adult men are watching My Little Pony, isn't that crazy?" where it turned into a self fulfilling prophecy. Desperate losers looking for something to identify with flocked to it in masses and the fanbase was way to welcoming for its own good, buying into their own "Love and tolerate"mantra.
149And Spike is permafriendzoned by Twilight Sparkle.
150In the eyes of the bronies, SJWs tried to take away Derpy and Princess Molestia. SJWs were bothered that bronies were pushing little girls away from the show with their creepiness.
151But all of the characters are female. Also, I'm sure I've seen some Social Justice Bronies.
152tl;dr to your post: SJW bronies exist, regardless of what they call themselves, they are spergs either for a kiddy show or for/against some group.
153As for most of the cast being girls, well, there's plenty of shows with large female casts that have creepy fans, but a lot of those shows happen to be anime. Hell, the entire genre of moé caters specifically to people like bronies since creepy otaku were perving out over magical girl characters in kid's cartoons and they decided those shows weren't fan-service-y enough.
154it all makes sense now. I didn't know that cutesy stuff had a name.
155A lot of batshit SJW types (like those in Something Awful) think MLP serves as a good role model for young girls (girl characters that actually get things done rather than swooning or fighting over boys). They think Bronies are agents of the Patriarchy hell-bent on corrupting the nursery of next-generation feminists.
156Because SJW's see appropriators of a kids show. Meowthkip also mentions about Derpy and Molestia. The SJW that complained about Derpy said something about how not all disabled people represent themselves or something (said disabled people didn't mind Derpy or even gave a care) while the one against Molestia did it for attention (and was hypocritical in drawing cheesecake pony images in lingerie). As Meowthkip says, they will never exist together. Then again, what can even exist with SJW's?
157.....As much as how MLP:FiM doesn't have the ponies swooning over some guy, I'm very sure there are other cartoons out there that serves as a good role model for young girls......
158And those cartoons are not only better, they are aimed at more than just girls and not fucking toy commercials, but legitimate efforts to appeal to others through the flawed medium that is Western Animation.
159I normally like my little pony inspired metal, but this is pretty lame.
160I normally like my little pony inspired \M/ETAL, but this is pretty lame.
161It does sound like it's trying to be edgy. It is a lame attempt and to some, an insult to \M/ETAL.
162”That's not cool man, now everyone will rate my posts dumb and autistic!”
163Anything a brony does is a lame attempt and an insult.
164Yes. SJWs have come to hate almost everything related to what's considered "nerd culture" for the sole reason of it being dominated by white males. Gamers get the worst of it but other groups are not exempt.
165The irony, of course, is that a lot of them are fucking nerds themselves.
166No matter how many times you say your slash fic AU is revolutionary and taking back cultural narratives and giving them back to the people, you are still writing fan fiction and you are a goddamned nerd.
167Funny how SJW's don't realize the hypocrisy in their statements against the Bronies.
168SJW's will never realize their hypocrisy, whether it's against bronies or some other group. Still, doesn't exclude the fact that you got bronies who write some AU fic and think it's as good as an actual novel. Either way, both are nerds who sperg over something.
169I only call people shit when they really act like shit, SJW's for example. It's also why, despite all my bashing towards the group, I don't hate all Bronies. Yeah, a good 90-95% are obnoxious frat boy-esque no lifers who want to fuck horses and sperg way too much over a TV show for girls. But at least I can say I know a few Bronies who don't want to jack off to Twilight Sparkle every living moment of their lives.
170Kinda like how I sperg over animation as a whole, but you don't see me writing fanfic, then blatantly call another group a pile of shit. Because I don't roll that way.
171I only call people shit when they really act like shit, SJW's for example.
172And don't forget bronies when they too act like that, right?
173I don't know any SJW's that are nice people online. And I'm sure they're a pleasure to be around at family gatherings.
174Is there any explanation why Bronies and SJW despise each other?
175...This attitude persists as the show changes, with bronies raging about how they're making the show girlier with weddings and more princesses despite "bronies being the core fans of the show."
176Edit: Regarding the Molestia drama, IIRC, there was some tweet made by PinkiePony that mentioned why she took Molestia down (had something with wanting e-fame or something, there was also a post she made that she took pride in emailing Hasbro). Take it with salt if you must (the images may as well be found on ED at this point and I say salt because it's ED and some things they say is exaggerated) because honestly, the drama behind it, regardless of either side may as well be stupid and the only good is seeing sperg bronies bawww, and raging SJW's sperg over some cartoon horse who may as well not be as good or influential as other cartoon characters
177I'd been trying to think of adding something constructive to this thread, but really was not coming up with much. I dropped out of the fandom as a whole after the whole "Ask Princess Molestia" Flamewar/clusterfuck, and been trying to articulate the whole experience for people who weren't in the blast zone (I used to be friends with PT & PP and others in the mess).
178It was really, really bad. I ended up seeing a lot of folks I'd been hanging with for a couple of years on the 'net- that I thought were nice people- turn into absolute piles of shit overnight. It left a really bad taste in my mouth. Your post helped articulated a lot of what was kinda nebulous thoughts for me.
179Now I've got even less of a reason to even watch re - runs of this show again, just out of respect for those who were victims of this BS..... Ugh - it's a shame this is all I can say, but all I can say is - FUCK. THESE. PONYFAGS.
180Considering Thanksgiving was last week, I'm sure SJW's sperg about Native American's but to stay on topic since this is a brony thread, the frat-boy esque part of your post sums up the fandom that is bronies. As for the bronies you know that don't jack it to Twilight, do you think they might jack it to another horse?
181You'd see all these comments about how awful it is you "protrayed Twilight as a black" or "Fluttershy as a Muslim."
182ToroidalBoat Token Hispanic Wacky Delly Friend True & Honest Fan
183That's not what I meant. Let me elaborate: I know a few Bronies that don't make fap art and are general good folk (even if I don't like the show).
184From whom? Overly politically correct people? I'm guessing it's for some reason most people don't think is a problem, as usual.
185it's just people sperging over stupid fandom stuff that honestly can get invalidated by Hasbro, one way or another.
186”Here's uh, the first person shooter. It's got graphics in source code. God said they're dancing. Anyways, so uh, there's a potted plant.”
187Hasn't it already been invalidated by Hasbro? I mean I don't see many purple colored blacks out there.
188@LegoTugboat posted an image of it in chat a day or two ago. It's one reason why one can see viewers of the show as spergs. Not counting trolling, some people come up with things they would treat as though they were canon.)
189There's the attitude of some parts of the fandom. In the beginning, there were these dolts who went "Look at me. I like a show for little girls, I'm so awesome." They wanted to be celebrated for liking something girly. They even made a documentary which some critics blasted as propaganda.
190However, problems arose with this attitude. For starters, bronies blasted older generations of MLP for being "too girly" to the dismay of older fans. There's a bit in the doc where Q sings a song bashing the older gens while praising G4. So, in short, bronies want a medal for liking something girly, but not something too girly. This attitude persists as the show changes, with bronies raging about how they're making the show girlier with weddings and more princesses despite "bronies being the core fans of the show."
191I am not joking about that. There are guys out there who think the show is made for them rather than little girls.
192It also creates the problem of bronies trying to make the show appear "less girly." Like there's this level of shame they're trying to exorcise through works like Fallout Equestria. Brony culture is heavily rooted in bro culture as a result of all this, which leads to some interesting results. For example, the only female fans interviewed in the docmentary are PurpleTinkerer (A transwoman who started bronycon, hence not a normal fan) (and I mean that because of the con) and a German fan who only was there to tell the audience how she met her fiancee at a fan meetup (where her duty was to bring cupcakes). General attitude is that female fans feel their contributions to the fandom are more apt to be looked over, since "girls are supposed to like it" (line from the doc) while the poor bronies have to overcome adversity by liking something meant for small girls.
193Then you have Derpy, where they named a cross-eyed pony (animation error) that and the show went "hey, let's call her that." Then the studio found out what the name meant after some people complained, one of the VA's voiced disgust when she learned due to her kid's disability, and they changed in in later showings. Bronies reacted badly and targeted a trans-woman, Yamino, with transphobic language because they perceived her as the cause of this. PurpleTinkerer also gets transphobic comments when she's on the outs with the fandom.
194Then there are cosplayers and humanization fanart. Woe be the fool who portrays ponies as any ethnicity other than white. You'd see all these comments about how awful it is you "protrayed Twilight as a black" or "Fluttershy as a Muslim." Some people would take fanart featuring ponies of color and edit them to make them appear white and one prominent artist made good ponies white, bad guys dark skinned.
195Speaking of altering fanart, there was a Tumblr fad earlier this year called Feminist Ponies. Artists would draw a pony accomponied by a message that was supposed to encourage other women. I think this was in retaliation against bronies making generic "positive pony" messages as the con-molestation debacle raged on. Despite watching a show made by a feminist with a philosophy to match, bronies raged that SJWs were using ponies as mouthpieces and edited the Feminist ponies to say She-Ra man hater lines or more generic, positive messages.
196Ironically, they also use the feminist, Lauren Faust, as a shield. "I can't be sexist, Faust likes the bronies." I would say she likes your money a lot more, and she has since stopped appearing at brony events because "she has nothing more to say about MLP" due to how removed she is from it's current state. Once again, I have to bring up that shitty documentary where crutics note it focuses more on Faust saying good things about the bronies and little on her philosophy and how it was incorporated into the show.
197Finally, you get to Princess Molestia, a fancomic that repeatedly used rape and molestation as a punchline. This tied in with another problem of the fandom's, they can't be asked to tag their porn. Some fans took issue with Molestia ("Think of the children") and the general easy access to pornographic content. Bronies replied with "young children shouldn't be on the internet unsupervised anyway,"doesn't show up if you use safesearch" and "it all depends on your search history."
198For the record, I opened a new profile on my laptop and did a safesearch. I still got porn. And I know some schools around here that require first graders to use iPads.
199It really came to a head where one of the VA's tweeted a Molestia pic for Thanksgiving (She thought the cum was gravy). She had also previously displayed disgust at the darker parts of the fandom when asked at a con. Shortly after, Molestia was removed because Hasbro got involved. Bronies targeted a minor by the username of Pinkiepony because she was the head of Down With Molestia, some hypocracy (she draws Pony cheesecake instead of porn), her being a fan of older generations and the methods of some members of DWM (It's worth noting that bronies ususally go "Not all bronies are like that, so you can't judge the whole fandom based on a few bad apples." Irony and stupidity as they don't know the other half of that saying "ruin the bunch"). Rape threats and doxxing ensued.
200There's a lot more, but that's all I can recall right now. It's a bunch of things adding up over time. The fandom doesn't police itself very well and they have pissed off a bunch of folks over matters other than spamming ponies everywhere.
201It sucks, because the show is really cute and well done. I've met some cool people through the fandom. But now it's just easier keep away from the fandom than to try and take sides.
202And all of this over a cartoon for little girls meant to sell toys.
203A lot of bronies justify this attitude by say that because so many of them watch the show (and honestly think they're the target audience), Hasbro should be catering to them.
204To be honest, if you watch some of the season back-to-back, you'll start to notice changes. You'll see it.
205There's also allegations of homophobia where F/F pairings are more well-received than M/M.
206A group consisting mostly of males prefer naked women to men??
207Anyway, it's more the age old chestnut "Girl-on-Girl is hot. Man-on-man is not."
208Yeah, based on what I've seen, honestly? They really don't seem to care what sex the ponies are. 4chan's pony board always has threads about M/M pairings and some of the most prominent artists openly draw it and are well-liked, even if it isn't explicit.
209Bronies are many, MANY, sick things, but well...I wouldn't say that they're homophobic. A lot of them have "husubandos" in a similar vein to "waifu."
210We're bright guys, we should be able to figure this out.
211To be honest, if you watch some of the seasons back-to-back, you'll start to notice changes. You'll see it.
212Why? Simple. Cindy, 10 year old MLP fan, has to wait until Christmas to get her $50 Pinkie Pie train set. However, Joe the year 20 old "Brony"- bought it last payday, and added it to his growing collection- and will add more whenever his disposable income allows. It took Hasbro a while, but they eventually realized the whole "Brony" thing wasn't just a fluke, but basically a licence to print money.
213I've seen the Hasbro stock/financial quarterly reports over on Equestria Daily. MLP:FIM is holding up Hasbro the same way Mythbusters is carrying The Discovery channel.
214all their chips on the second Equestria Girls movie to the point there were like, five shitty repaints of actual pony toys there.
215Four years ago, Hasbro was on the verge of doing something amazing, with cartoons that didn't suck on a new channel all their own, a billion dollar movie that would have allowed for a clean reboot, and a powerful success story of a revitalized, oft-stereotype-defining girls cartoon attracting an entire cashflow source nobody in their dreams could have expected of supporting a girls toyline because it's men.
216And they totally fucked it up. Somehow, at the verge of making real history, the execs at Hasbro fucking paniked and in the past four years have utterly torn it all down by trying to force old practices again. The transformers franchise is quickly divebombing (the toyline failed to even meet intentionally reduced expectations and the 4th film made 50% less at the domestic box office than the 3rd), everything that was good about ponies has been purged because of executive mismanagement (Faust leaving the show because Hasbro wanted to do Equestria Girls and she didn't was a huge mistake on Hasbro's part), and The Hub has become a Discovery Channel once again because there just wasn't enough stuff on it on part of Hasbro's productions (to this day nobody knows why GI JOE Renegades, a supurb show all around, got axed after the first season). And what is Hasbro doing? Oh, they've somehow made a new filmmaking division and it's going to concentrate on live action films. MLP is strongly believed to be getting a live action film and no you did not read that incorrectly.
217Sure, bronies are keeping the show afloat for now, but the bubble is going to burst eventually, and I really do not see Hasbro making it out of this alive unless they get people not tied down by obsolete market trend beliefs to change the direction of the company.
218MLP is strongly believed to be getting a live action film and no you did not read that incorrectly.
219Actually, I heard it was going to be computer animated.
220It has been confirmed to be animated several times. But that would be pretty funny. Ap
221Another interesting fact: Battleship was such a huge bomb that basically no studio wants to touch Hasbro properties anymore. So they have to finance films at least partially internally, which is what the live-action Jem and MLP are going to be.
222..... And may the seas of the earth wildly flow with the tears of ponyfags... And may their tears nourish the rest of us who see what languish - worthy shitstains they are.....
223“that video where he and shaun_jen make fun of DSP was really fucking ableist with this "look at how this person can't function as a human being" undertones that gave me traumatic flashbacks of the SA anime board.“
224Couple that with bad business decisions as well. Even if bronies are the golden goose, that goose is gonna die off sooner or later. As for those spamming the stuff on child-friendly sites, one would question their intelligence in doing such a thing. Seriously, that in of itself would actually make them disgusting and repulsive. It may be one thing to draw the images but to spam them on a child-friendly site? Do these guys at least have a sliver of shame?
225Addendum, I'm really beginning to believe that more of these were serious than I thought.
226No surprise there, no one would want to be associated with the single most disgusting, repulsive, and corrupting fandom on the entire fucking planet. The entire MLP franchise itself is, to no one's surprise, going to be associated with these people, who actively protect their right to desecrate and ravage the minds of the intended audience via hardcore pornography, for the rest of its' existence. There are people who freely spam pony porn on child-friendly sites and instead of being trolls or I HAVE AUTISM PLEASE LAUGH AT ME, they legitimately don't understand what they're doing wrong.
227Oh yeah, that's another excuse I forgot to mention. "Kid's are going to see porn someday, so why not now?"
228That is the most pathetic and idiotic excuse I have heard. Even if the kids are going to see one day, wouldn't exposing a child to pornography be illegal? I mean, that is child pornography is it not?
229The offense of engaging in sexual intercourse or other sexual activity with a person who is not one’s spouse and who is under the age of consent or another age set by statute, especially if there is a considerable age difference (usually four years or more) between the offender and the victim. See also rape.
230In some states, to assist or encourage a minor to commit an offense. See also contributing to the delinquency of a minor.
231The arousal or encouragement of a child’s destructive antisocial behavior by a parent, guardian, or other caregiver. See also contributing to the delinquency of a minor.
232It's coming out in 2017 and apparently is done by the same studio that makes the show.
233Apparently the whole toy industry is absolutely blowing chunks right now, but Hasbro got a bunch of Disney licenses. They get to make toys for Frozen, every Marvel superhero movie, AND the Star Wars sequels. They'll probably do fine. And strangely enough, that Equestria Girls thing is actually selling better than its competitor. Somehow. I have no idea. Maybe the target audience isn't as smart/discerning as they are claimed to be, sure as shit isn't bronies buying those things.
234Upon the revelation of the ponies being G1 in a live-action film, the bronies scream once more, the movie, unleashing great terror, melts the flesh and blood off their bones. The theater, once packed with life is now filled with a sea of melted flesh and bare bones. Those that did not gaze upon, no longer sperg like they once did, until the go to another fandom.(In other words, think Indiana Jones:
235"MLP is strongly believed to be getting a live action film and no you did not read that incorrectly."
236If my info is correct, a EQD usually is spot-on. It's going to hit in 2017.
237We are working with the world’s best studios and we know how to produce top quality animation cost effectively. As our content strategy and all-screen strategy evolve, we are building upon our experience in animation and storytelling. In addition to television, there are select films where we are taking greater control of the process. We have two movies we are currently developing under our new film label, Allspark Pictures. These films are MY LITTLE PONY and JEM AND THE HOLOGRAMS.
238During the Q&A Session, Mr. Goldner (Hasbro's CEO) mentioned that AllSpark Pictures was formed in order to increase the focus and effort towards Live Action Movies.
239I'm inclined to believe Hasbro's CEO over Equestria Daily, frankly, especially since Jem is known to be live-action and, disturbingly, live-action Equestria Girls ads do exist as well.
240Building on the global success of MY LITTLE PONY, we recently announced we are developing a MY LITTLE PONY animated feature. We’ve hired a great writer with strong credentials in animated film.
241It would be funny to watch people sperg, but it's gonna be animated.
242what if it's live action of the ponies and not the human-ponies tho
243Some bronies could still beat off to it. It's like that image posted earlier of a poll from a chan that Alan Pardew posted. Some of the bronies who voted (provided it's those that were serious and not kidding around) would literally try to screw a real horse and not some fictional one.
244In that case, excuse me while I try to set up for myself, an appointment to the glue factory.
245“obviously Hitler had a problem with Jewish people.”
246it is. Any critter that has collagen in their bodies, which does include humans, can be used to make glue. We mostly use horses because of the sheer amount of collagen in their bodies due to their relative size, and due to just how common they are.
247I don't know, I'm just trying to redeem myself according to what CatParty said. Really though, outside of the joking context, one has to wonder at this point: how many of the pervert outnumber the normals within bronies? By that I mean how many bronies don't want to screw a horse aside from myself and the ones you met?
248Hard to tell with the internet. All I can say is "The vast majority".
249how can the fans of the show claim to lack sexual attraction when they are sexually attracted to cartoon horses?
250It's a show about cartoon ponies for young girls. Of course every character is going to appear like they have no desire for sex/romance, except of course the couples the authors delegate.
251THIS IS THE SHIT THE SEX OFFENDER REGISTRIES ARE MADE OF!
252Wow... All those "coming out" videos over a horribly overrated kids' show - way to make people with real issues like admitting to homosexuality look insignificant, guys... I hope the sarcasm can be picked up here. This is fucking pathetic, otherwise.
253Telling one's parents that they are a brony is basically the same thing as admitting you love cock. I can see why they call it "coming out"
254Now I wanna see a parody video of a guy coming out of the "stable" as a brony to his parents, only for him to get the piss beat out of him by his father, his mother crying her tears out, and ending in him being kicked out of the house, his only worldly possessions being a suitcase full of pony figures, a Princess Celestia dakimakura, and a fedora.
255Oh yeah, can't believe I forgot this. Another reason SJWs get upset with bronies is because bronies liken admitting to your friends and family to coming out as gay. "Coming out of the stable," as they put it. Some people find it offensive as bronies won't face the same hardships for liking a cartoon as they would for being gay. That it's comparing something minor in the grand scheme of things to an event that will have lasting ramifications.
256I would much rather have a gay son then a brony son.
257No matter how gay your son is, he will never be as big a faggot as your brony son, anyway.
258I think having a furry for a son is just as unlucky as a brony. It is a point of contention in my life. There are some things that just aren't meant to be shared with your family, there are other things that aren't meant to be shared with anyone.
259I honestly doubt the brony thing will be around for more than a few more years so sit tight and then we get the last laugh because it was a phase all along and a bunch of autists will cringe when they look at their pasts. Even now it is giving its death throes.
260Why assign sexuality to a cartoon horse? Either because one is a brony that thinks a character is straight or some SJW who thinks they must be transsexual, pansexual homosexuals. Really, it's all just autism as one might say.
261I love western animation of all kinds, and this is the only fucking show I've ever had to worry talking to people about me liking.
262Samurai Jack? No problem. Warner Brothers, in tota? No big deal. Those weird-ass (but beautifully done) shorts on O, Canada? Dude, It's cool. Brehan and The Secret of Kells? Never had a problem with it.
263At the end of the day, it's a little-bit-above-the-bar cartoon. PERIOD.
264”I'm glad you're watching... if you are watching...”
265Engineers Without Boarders, one of my favorite charities. They built a school. Nothing wrong with that.
266I'm gonna be real honest here... this show would be more enjoyable if people didn't take the show so seriously and make a big deal out of liking a cartoon for little girls.
267Honestly, I don't think all of the brony fandom is that bad. It has it's bad parts, sure, but it also has areas of creativity and acceptance. It's kinda like a spectrum. (I would insert an emoticon with the autism ribbon, but we don't have one)
268Agreed. Judging any group by it's bottom 10% is wrong. I've seen some really mind-bending shit from the Brony fandom, but I've also seen a lot of good things from it as well. People getting into a new kind of art style- "I want to make music/draw/craft/whatever- because I saw artist X's, Y thingy". Some really good charity stuff, like the big Red Cross blood drive last year inspired by the "Nightmare Night" episode & the thing in Africa for Engineers Without Boarders, one of my favorite charities. They built a school. Nothing wrong with that.
269I'm just bone-tired of all the bullshit and drama associated with the show.
270I'm sure they could exist, as corpses, corpses that realize this: They will never ever get the china of their fictional horse waifu.
271Speaking of which, there was a video I saw a couple of years ago called "Pony Psychobabble" where a youtube commentator named FuckingInMySleep (A.K.A. MaxyPadd) made fun of an MLP theories video by Somberguy20 where his theory (Which seems to be popular amongst the fandom apparently) was Twilight Sparkle having Asperger's Syndrome. The vid no longer exists, sadly (Though if someone has a copy of it by any chance, please re-upload it), but I have a majority of the quotes from his commentary memorizeed. I'll post the most relevant quote for this thread, though:
272"This is what I love about bronies - it's different when you're joking, but otherwise, you take things so far out of context and make it canon in your own minds.
273'Look at her (Twilight) hair! That means she's black!'
274'This episode is about religion!' (Feeling Pinkie Keen)
275A horse dildo from a site that caters to zoophiles will never fill the emptiness within them.
276If I was a Hasbro executive, I'd be doing this upon seeing this letter of fail:
277Oh, and one of the first images that came up in this search was pony related too, let me bust that out as well.
278After talking about it the other day, I rewatched some of the animated sections of the brony doc. When it's dismissing G1, it says the plots weren't very weighty. "Plot" is a fanterm for a ponies ass with fans passing around images with the line "I watch it for the plot." Anyway, guess what was shown during this line. That's right, asses of G1 pony toys.
279I didn't think much of it, just "oh god, another plot reference" in a doc that's supposed to be painting bronies in a good light. They already let the word clop slip rather blantantly and tried to move on from it w ithout discussion, and interviewed the guy made Molestia. If they're trying to look good for non-fans, why include those things? It would only make people curious and wonder "What has this guy done to warrant such attention?" or "What is clop? To the internet!" It's a complete lack of self awareness. That led me to my revelation.
280Maybe they're not just putting down the stories of G1, but calling the ponies unsexy as well?
281Of course they are. Da earlier ponies aren't anime or pastel enough for their autistic brains to go "matematemate"
282This now makes the documentary even more hilarious for me mind you, since that means that they completely failed at making themselves not look like creepy assholes.
283One of my classmates just revealed himself as a brony.
284What's even worse is the facts that he has now openly said to everyone that he is now ponykin.
285I want to feel sorry for him, yet I lack the empathy to.
286Captain Pronin If you're reading this it's too late.
287”wow fucking k*wifarms is harassing you too god damnnnn”
288I remember seeing the brony documentary on Netflix months ago. Let's just say I'm better off keeping a low profile about me liking ponies. I mean, I'm a guy, I like the cartoon, but I'm not going to yell from the rooftops that I like My Little Pony Friendship is Magic and that's it's the manliest thing alive. That's ridiculous. At the end of the day, it's still a girl's cartoon. A good girl's cartoon, but a girl's cartoon nonetheless. Not to mention, there have been several other girl's cartoons that had some success, and none of them have the overblown fanbase that Friendship is Magic has. I know Jem was liked by boys back in the day as much as the girls, and apparently some bronies actually enjoyed G1. I also enjoy the current version of Littlest Pet Shop and 2003 Strawberry Shortcake.
289MLP has a girly reputation that's preceded itself for the past three decades, and then Faust comes along and makes it appealing to both sides. The fact that a cartoon from a franchise as girly as MLP can be really hard to believe. I'll even admit I was skeptical, going, "Why are guys suddenly liking My Little Pony?" The Girl Show Ghetto is still in effect too, so there's that as well.
290I must also note as a Western animation fan that the Girl Show Ghetto is just about one of the worst things for a fan of this brand of animation to put up with and it's a surprise anyone can like these types of shows when there's so much dreck being pushed on more than just the target audience.
291Again, found this on Tumblr. Because Hasbro would want to make an episode about rape lol
292Truth be told, I personally find that people who actually want the show to turn into after school special grade shit could be considered worse than the people they're trying to protect kids against, since the latter admittedly does make more "adult" things but at the same time it's kept separate from the show*. The former in essence, however, go farther in that by making these "special episodes" it does in effect actually make that content something that exists in the official show.
293*The woman who led the charge of public opinion negativity that brought down Ask Molestia was almost immediately revealed afterward to have been secretly running a blog with much of the same content theme and had - or so I figure - turned out to be a two-faced, money grubbing SJW who actually didn't give a damn about the moral stance she claimed to be championing. She quickly dropped of the internet following her outting and the inevitable harassment on part of her former supporters*
294I know I'm going to get called "autistic" for this, but I'm getting this out of my system here and now that someone had to even bring it up:
295If there's one thing I can appreciate about one of your examples (that one being Littlest Pet Shop (2012)...), it's that that show's fanbase (if there still is one, mostly because that show is not as popular or considered as good as the show on topic here...)) doesn't seem as fucked up as the one on subject. That may as well go for your other examples, too... As a fan of LPS (2012), as sad as I am at the lack of a fanbase for that show - I can appreciate that the fans aren't as messed, and that I've seen better / smarter / harder hitting cartoons, period.
296You know, I've kind of wondered about the same thing. When the Littlest Pet Shop Friends game was released in 2009, I remember my dad running an errand to a local shopping center that happened to be hosting a promotional event. He was taken aback - possibly horrified - by the number of grown men, unaccompanied by children, who were lined up to claim some kind of promo code. This predated the television premiere of MLP:FiM by at least a year. When bronies first started becoming a thing, I wondered why that fanbase was being treated like such a novelty.
297Both MLP and LPS are girly franchises that have - or had - a substantial adult male fanbase. Why, then, is the MLP fandom a horrible shitshow, while the LPS fandom largely under the radar? I'll admit to being entirely baffled.
298Perhaps MLP was colorful enough to attract the likes of spergs while LPS didn't have enough. Even then, you got Tumblr confessionals that are dead serious in wanting to either: a) tie up one of the ponies and spank them or b) blindfold one of the LPS and cover them in a certain fluid.
299Their shows share the same channel, (iirc) they are owned by the same company, and they have adult fans that may have an attraction to one of the characters of the shows. Would that be enough to give you an answer that confirms it?
300I know Applebeans AKA BEST PONY ARTIST was into LPS, even going so far to say that it was better than MLP.
301It's all of sad, really. It's one thing if they were anthros (Not that it makes it any less creepy), but these are actual animal characters. I mean, bronies are turned on by the butts of animated cartoon ponies, for crying out loud. I'm not in a hurry for what perversions lie in LPS fandom anytime soon.
302LPS would have to have some sort of perversions that lie solely in the actual animal characters and not some anthro version. One can only guess what sort it is, if it's like that of the bronies.
303To be honest, I'd rather not see a show I actually have liking for over what's on topic be a victim of this BS, now that I think about it from a fan's perspective, rather than a critical one. Anything to NOT look like a ponyfag (sorry if I sound autstic about my opinions on shit no one really cares about, BTW...).
304LPS was pretty much what the people who autistically raged that bronies "ruined" "their" franchise went to. It's something that they wanted for themselves.
305The show actually did so terribly that reruns of stuff beat out premieres in terms of viewership. Doesn't surprise me, it's pretty much the exact same thing as pony but had no idea what to do because it is set in the modern world. Didn't help it had a lot of the same writers who were used to MLP......
306Well, I've sperged about stuff I actually like enough. Any new developments that matter??? I'm sorry to ask, but...
307On fan-made content though, I'll see that & raise you a Children of the Night. If I had to pick my favorite, this would be it.
308LPS was pretty much what the people who autistically raged that bronies "ruined" "their" franchise went to. It's something that they wanted for themselves. The show actually did so terribly that reruns of stuff beat out premieres in terms of viewership. Doesn't surprise me, it's pretty much the exact same thing as pony but had no idea what to do because it is set in the modern world. Didn't help it had a lot of the same writers who were used to MLP.
309I am always amused by the 30 year old female equivalent to a neckbeard (legbeard?) whinging about how "their" franchise was "stolen." From what I've read about earlier incarnations of the fandom, it was always full of awkward people. Imagine a full grown woman sending death threats to another full grown woman over a "deal" they got from a 1980s children's toy. It's bizarre. I even think the MLP fandom got an ED article before bronies.
310LPS has less adventure and focuses more on slice of life. MLP had a balance of adventure and slice of life.
311Judge all you want. We are all going to die. I intend to deserve it.
312Is this going to become a brony refuge like the last brony thread?
313That is a good point. Why do lolcows tend to gravitate towards threads that are meant to mock them
314I think the only way for people to treat this "lol crazy bronies" thread as a general MLP thread is for us to make a general MLP thread in the Off-Topic board. That way, the bronies of this site can discuss MLP without cluttering this topic.
315Yeah, this board is mean't for the lol-cow bronies, not sharing what stuff from the fandom that isn't cringe material.
316Most of my stuff are Tumblr-related, so hope you don't mind
317I see we're back on track to picking on ponyfags who think doing stupid shit in public means they're shit don't stink like everyone else's. Awesome. And sad, too.
318As sad as it may be, at least they aren't going to be given a job where they could sperg about their love of a cartoon to co-workers who honestly do not care. I can imagine a company hiring a brony who won't shut up about his love for the show which could literally annoy co-workers.
319I have one. You may or may not have heard of this guy before, though... he's done done but endlessly complain about Princess Twilight since season 3 and wants the original Twilight Sparkle to return. This would normally be uninteresing if not for the drama he's causing.

321-The whole gallery is bitching about twilight having WINGS.
322What differnce does it make?! If you dont like it just watch the older episodes.
323-He just reminds WAAAY too much about Richard "aknotholeresident" Kuta and his "green eyes in Sonic 4" drama.
324I'd like to start a fanbase of Squirrel and Hedgehog and develop a philosophy based on it... OH WAIT.
325Yeah, that kind of shit is pretty much looked down upon when people are actually trying to focus and make ends meet!
326And most of his stuff is just vectorized garbage and whining about uncontrollable nonsense. I should follow this guy - he seems funny. Almost - but not in a legit way where we're all laughing with glee, BTW, except at the ponyfag.
327dude sure has a lot of SFM stuff of Twilight being restrained in his gallery, doesn't he?
328Gee, dude sure has a lot of SFM stuff of Twilight being restrained in his gallery, doesn't he?
329”I admit, I never had sex but sex is anything but abusive. The SJW's are just misconceptualize it as "rape" and "abuse."”
330The thing that makes me laugh the most about that guy is that he espouses Objectivism while talking about harmony and friendship that the show brings up. He supports the notion of being a selfish douchebag while being a huge fan of a show that is designed around the concept of helping others.
331If you think objectivism is about being a "selfish douchebag" then you need to do more research.
332As far as I know, isn't that from Rand? I did learn that she came up with something that is basically helping others out for self-worth or something, right? Doing it for self-interest?
333There's nothing wrong (imho) with being rich selling things people love (iphones, cars, etc.) People make these products not just to get rich but to leave their mark on history. The concept works when nobody is allowed to steal from each other. Government "taking" in Rand's novels is a form of (legalized) thievery.
334It's just another way to look at it. Capitalism at its core is the pursuit of greed, but I feel that it brings more people out of poverty than throwing trillions down the drain the last 70 years did.
335If that's the case, then kindly provide me a source or two. I mean, I did only look at the core of the philosophy which promotes self-interest as its primary tenet and decries notions of charity and duty towards helping others. The fact you came to a different conclusion implies I missed something you saw, so It'd be kind of nice for you to provide it, seeing as you have done the research.
336When the brony thread is suddenly about Ayn Rand...you know you're on the Kiwi Farm.
337Dammit, you just ruined my head cannon that Equestria is the earth after the sun loses its power and humans die out.
338I think the last two pages have made me realize how fucking stupid Fedoras are when worn by dipshits.

340Which on a side note reminds me, I still need to go back to Rapture in Bioshock 2. If only for the siren call of Steam Achievements.
341Ponyfags need to screw something other than Rarity fleshlights.

344Although, this does bring a certain bit of clarity to why anyone would pay $5K+ for a life-size pony plush.
345(Although, If I did have enough disposable income to afford a life-size MLP stuffed toy, I'd just put it in a corner in the living room, and then pretend it wasn't there. "What pony? What are you talking about dude? There's nothing there.")
346But I just don't understand why they want to have sex with cartoon horses.

349The second guy misspelled Pinkie Pie, though, and thus deserves to be single.
350I'm running out of Tumblr stuff about ponies, but here's one for last (for now):
351I haven't read many ragecomics, so I haven't really seen anything cringeworthy from it. How bad has it gotten?
352Well, Equestria and Ayn Rand's philosophies have about the same chances of working in this physical universe.
353Uzumaki Black Iron General of the Evil Army Shadow Line
354Here ya go. They start at $1000, plus about $300 shipping costs.
355”There's a snake in his boot. And by "a snake" I mean "shit". And by "boot" I mean "post".”
356No overseas shipping though! I took a quick look through her gallery... she's good.
357I'm starting to question my life choices... I could be making money off of furries and bronies
358So building muscle is for sheeple. Something tells me he was one of those geeks in high school that no one liked and was possibly the "gym class joke".
359He reminds me a bit of Buttercup Dew, a rabid supremacist Brony that thought that MLP was this screed for white power, ultra-nationalistic, neanderthal elitism.
360Furries are, for some strange reason, probably a pretty good cashcow. No one likes them but they've been around forever and will probably keep being around. Maybe it's because its a community with such a broad subject.
361Bronies... Eh, I give them two, maybe three more years. Once the show is over the fandom will dissolve in, to quote the show, ten seconds flat. As a former Brony who jumped off once the community lost its fucking mind I can tell you that there are five stages of being a Brony these days:
362Denial: The community is still fine, what are you talking about? No, the obese neckbearded manchildren are just a vocal minority, most Bronies are wonderful, talented, creative people and I'm proud to be one of them!
363Anger: What the hell is wrong with these faggots? It's a cute, innocent show about ponies, why do these creeps make porn of it? Are these people out of their fucking minds? That's not what being a Brony is all about!
364Bargaining: B-but there is still a lot of good about the fandom, r-right? I mean, there are all these great fan projects and the music and the show is still pretty good... come on, it's not all bad, right?
365Depression: Oh, woe is me. Why do things I care about go to shit? Why did it have to end up like this? Why did the community have to be overrun by lunatics and perverts, I just wanted something simple and idealistic to enjoy with other people.
366Rand didn't decry charity. A simple google will tell you that. She just didn't believe that charity was a moral duty. (I think it is, for those that are successful, but that's another topic.) Rand's whole central point is not just "pursuit of self interest and in so doing helping others" but is that no man has any right to another man's labor. Nothing should be taken or expected from another. Everything should be of mutual benefit.
367You know Rand did get Social Security and Medicare, right?
368And for more horrifying Rand statements, she agreed with colonialism, imperialism, and the like, because "savages" had no right to the land.
369Mkay, I've got a question... What if an advanced alien civilization receives and decodes the broadcasting of MLP and thinks it's a documentary on life on earth?
370You know Rand did get Social Security and Medicare despite decrying government assistance for years, right?
371When my mom passed away my dad who was still working and deferring his social security got thousands of dollars of back spousal benefits and then half her benefits until he stops deferring. The system wastes a lot of money for reasons like that.
372klystron Doesn't flock with kiws. Soars with eagles.
373Acceptance: Fuck it, Gravity Falls is better anyway.
374Can't say the same for this damn show... Sorry, that's just my crappy taste in cartoons talking again.
375Still, can't argue with that last sentence of yours, PsychedelicDiamond. Quoted for victory.
376This - though I'll probably be a little saddened once Littlest Pet Shop ends before the show on subject does (and since that show ain't popular at all, I expect it to end and fade further into nothingness much faster...).
377In other news; not only is FiM the most overrated cartoon, it's also the greatest cartoon of all time.
378Just something funny that I noticed: I have never once encountered a single pony artist that drew completely TV-Y fanart solely. Even the most eager-to-be-licensed and 99% family friendly artists that I've seen have drawn something that was at least PG-13, but it's most usually X-rated. This also goes for Gravity Falls and especially Adventure Time, strangely enough.
379I guess it just kind of happens when you have a bunch of teenagers/people in their early 20's drawing stuff? They just gravitate towards it, even if people don't ask them to?
380As good as MLP:FiM is, it isn't really the greatest cartoon of all time. That honor goes to the likes of Tom & Jerry.
381I'm sorry - it seems you're looking for love (or is it hate in this case???) In all the wrong places, m8.
382They'll probably sequester themselves to some far off forum, bitching and complaining about G5 being absolute shit. Some of them will send letters upon letters to Hasbro, begging for the return of FiM but no fucks shall be given as that cow has been milked dry.
383Alternate scenario: They might end up liking G5, taking it to another level of creepiness and spergery.
384“autists r now in full control-autists know that Goodness will win.”
385Sometimes I wonder: At which point did Ragecomics become so incredibly lame? I mean, I remember when they were kinda entertaining, making fun of awkward every-day situations. Almost over night they've become the most cringeworthy shit.
386Bronies...are an interesting bunch. Sure, while I have met some really good and friendly ones in the past (some that are friends to this day), I never really cared for the fandom, mainly because how unhinged, rabid and batshit crazy it can get (and constant cranking of graphic cartoon horse boinking videos and pics). But one thing...one thing that stands out to me is the repeated use of "ponified" characters from various franchises, people, etc. in pictures or something. To me, one half is okay with this because I can't stop what a person likes to draw (and admittedly there are some good uses of the "ponified" idea), and one half is getting annoyed because ponified pics or videos could end up as some sort of personal fulfillment for certain bronies. Case in point is contrast of the cover art of one of my favorite metal albums of all time, and a ponified version of the cover art.
387I know they've even made ponified versions of Earthbound and Final Fantasy 6 (and Pathfinder) as well. It is amazing what they can get their hands on.
388I did play the Ponyfinder one in a one-shot game with some friends (when it was still a fledgeling project). Let's just say that my character is now called, "The Puking Pony of Trotsdale."
389pony version of Mega Man. According to the creator, it isn't a rom-hack though with that said, one can wonder how long before a C&D from Hasbro (or if possible, Capcom) comes in.

391I don't mind ponified pics. But...let this sink into your head and make the comparisons yourself.
392Was it fun playing Ponyfinder as the one in a one-shot game it was? By that, I mean did the character you had named "The Puking Pony of Trotsdale" had some memorable moments? As for what they can get their hands on, I remember seeing them trying to make their own pony version of Mega Man. According to the creator, it isn't a rom-hack though with that said, one can wonder how long before a C&D from Hasbro (or if possible, Capcom) comes in.
393I'd play that if it gets finished. Not even a brony, just someone who cut his gamer teeth playing Mega Man X.

395Honestly, I'm expecting a Chinese Knockoff style game that just has edited assets.
396-It takes place 70 years after FiM and just when the DM mentioned the fates of the Mane 6, I blurted out, "They're all glue now."
397-My pony (Star Search) was a wandering unicorn bard. In return for saving some ponies who were kidnapped by Diamond Dogs, the mayor agreed to let her have a little concert in the town square (the other person was my long-suffering sidekick). The performance kind of sucked, but villagers stayed out of politeness for saving the ponies and they were kind of scared of what would happen if they didn't.
398-When I got the sickened status when fighting the Diamond Dogs, I asked if I could roll to see if she wouldn't throw up and I was told yes. She failed the roll, puked on the Diamond Dog and the DM said, "You're now known as The Puking Pony of Trotsdale". When it tried to attack me a second time, the DM rolled to see if it would slip on the puke and it did.
399If the show ends, I wonder what's going to happen to all the hypnopony and pony waifu enthusiasts.
400If that happens, I shudder to the day a brony Ray Jones comes in, drawing himself with a pony and doing creepy things with said pony.
401Considering how creepy some of the fan base already is, it's basically promised.
402My favorite pony game still is MLP:Fighting is Magic. The game was never completed due to a C&D from Hasbro, but I still have the beta version. It's still fun to occasionally boot it up & beat the frosting out of the ponies.
403Don't forget bad English. Either way, one would also wonder about the dev in that, could the dev be just some guy wanting to make a game based on two franchises or will he think he is important like Phil Fish, thinking any detractors means the game is cancelled.
404Thanks for sharing that. That would make one interested in trying a game like Pathfinder(or similar derivatives). Were there anymore moments?
405I would post more on this thread, but considering the Brony fandom is infamous for drawing porn for a children's show...and....look at my avatar.
406”keep telling yourself that, chickenshit anonymous sociopathic little man who gets his jollies talking shit about his intellectual and moral superiors.”
407are. They do exist fetish sub groups and I can attest to that through the page I linked along with seeing such horrors when going through Derpibooru.
408So are there fetish sub groups with bronies like furries? I just wanted to know but to afraid to google it.
409The second has a bunch of reaction videos on youtube.
410I wasn't trying to piss someone off -- certainly not someone that contributes to a worthwhile cause like "NSWF Pony Scat".
411Okay, why in the holy mother of fuck was that picture made? Bronies can be quite horrible some times.
412I was looking through the furry thread when I saw this:
413Now I have another reason to dislike Tumblr outside of SJW's. This can also reinforce the question @Billy_Sama asked.
414I fear to click the link, so I'll ask instead: is it a link to something regarding exceptional fat pony torture?
415Nahh, it involves violating a horse with like a baseball bat while it shits out feces and an egg.
416That's the best way to sum up part of the horror. To add more to it, it's basically the equivalent of a child.
417Be glad you did. I had to see what horrors lied there and honestly, the fact that more than one image on there exist makes me wonder why Tumblr hasn't come in and took it down yet. I mean, underaged character (even if said character is a horse), creepy sexual fetish, feces? Why hasn't Tumblr even come in to take it down? If Molestia and other tumblrs were taken down, why not this one?
418If Molestia and other tumblrs were taken down, why not this one?
419Tumblr mods actually doing their job and removing content.
420..... that there is nothing WRONG... with ponies and dung.
421”You peoplke You can not speak English. Did voice is not correct English.”
422So does that mean the admins of Tumblr don't really bother with this then?
423If they actually did their job, about a quarter of Tumblr would vanish overnight.
424We would hear the shrieks of rage of millions all at once, and then silence.
425Perverted and repulsive Bronies rage when their tumblrs of love-shy sexual misandry and bodily waste are taken down for such disgusting content. SJW's rage when their tumblr's that speak of wanting men and CIS people dead are no more. Tumblrs that once provided a platform for such lol-cows and cretins are no more and the cows must look elsewhere to settle down their idiocy and spergery.
426That's what I tried to say... And couldn't without sounding spergy myself about ponyfags...
427I love FiM and I stand by everything that's been said in this thread.
428Stand by everything? That does mean you can attest to the fact that the fandom of FIM is filled with spergery and more disgusting things like ponies with dung? Just a bit confused by what you posted.
429I like the show but I gave up trying to interact with those people after one attempt. Liking a show is one thing, but, goddamn.
430If I were to interact with bronies aside from the decent ones I met, I would do the same thing as well. One can only wonder how many of them aren't self-aware of the how spergy the fandom is and how stupid it gets when it comes to creepy disgusting stuff such as the fetishes. Then again, they would either drop the name or call themselves horsefuckers or ponyfag and go to 8chan or 4chan's pony board to have some discussions about the autism of the fandom.
431EDIT: Also, as much as I think the intentions were good, the new documentary, A Brony Tale, picks like the worst possible people to represent the fandom. At least Bronies: Etc. had a decent mix including an otherwise fairly normal couple and a legit, diagnosed Sperg.
432Yeah. The parts about her being introduced to the fandom were interesting but the Equestria Daily kid for example was not the best choice to promote the "we're not all spergs" viewpoint.
433Even the promotion wasn't done well to cater to people outside the fandom other than the "let's go check out the trainwreck" types.
434Exhibit B: Apparently the best Equestria Daily has to offer (notice the Chris-Chan levels of dental hygiene):
435For whatever reason, the fact that they made another documentary is hilarious as hell. I think it's because it gives off that vibe of desperation. "We're not a group of degenerate manchildren who masterbate to underaged, animal characters! Really!"
436A brony documentary done from the perspective of a complete outsider would be a hell of a lot more interesting than the circlejerk that we got for the first one.
437Confession time: That doc is why I eventually watched the show, and just kinda ended up hooked after 3 or 4 episodes.
438Alternative: "Let's make another documentary to tard cum more money guys, not only can we fill our wallets with the doc profits, we can get more from the bronies!"
439Said documentary would better since a) it would do its best to be objective and b) it would try to show all the details, both good and bad.
440Jon DeLancie singing the opening theme for the documentary pretty much set the tone for it. As a fan of the show it's great, but to an outsider I could see the circlejerk aspect.
441In regards to the circlejerk aspect, one can only wonder in a drinking game how many shots would be taken when a circlejerk pops up. Really, the circlejerk aspect is what leaves critics seeing it as propaganda.
442If the doc were to show the actual estimated numbers, how much of that good chunk is gonna deny it?
443Also just to share from 8chan's /pone/, a few text that gives their thoughts on the fandom:
444Bronies and FiM were a catalyst for something that was already terrible/spergery.
445And now, my findings made manifest on this show...
446.SpoilerTarget">Spoiler: Sums up why I find this show horribly overrated at best and absolute BS at worst in 6 sentences...
447I agree that a doc that touches on clopping and all the other sketchy perverse shit in the fandom in addition to the community aspect would be wonderful, if only for the fact there's still a good chunk of the community that thinks that shit occurs in a much smaller percentage than it actually does.
448CatParty I am still having trouble telling how serious you are a year later
449I think this string caused something in my brain to snap loose; I need to lie down and drink some lemsip.
450I kinda like Lauren Faust. At least she was just trying to make a kids show the whole family can enjoy. Not some misguided attempt at a fantasy epic. Not an overly long toy commercial. Not something that is trying to hard to appeal to adults with obscure references and forced "mature" humour. Just a kids show. The whole thing fell apart when she left.
451You know I am part of a fandom made for little girls that has a large adult following. I collect dolls, and I recently started collecting a doll like called "Ever After High" which is a spin off of "Monster High" But Ever After is based off Fairy Tales. It also had webisodes and made for TV movies.
452It has a large adult following (Not as big as Monster High, yet) and every time I check out doll reviews on youtube it is almost always made by an adult collector. But here is the thing. We respect the dolls and tie in shows and movies are meant for Little Girls. We can appericate them, but I have never seen a graphic picture or fan fiction of "Ever After High" Mattel even acknowledge the adult fandom by making Comic Con exclusive dolls
453There is nothing wrong with liking something for kids, but you got to remember you are not the audience, and you have to respect that. The franchise is not meant to cater to you, and if you expect for them too then you should find another fandom.
454The adult "Ever After High" fandom is respectful to the little girls it is truly meant for, and bronies should start taking ques.
455To be fair, isn't the whole point of Comic Con exclusives to cater to an adult audience? Before bronies were a thing I know for a matter of a fact that they had "artsy" ponies that were previous generation styles painted in weird designs. This year was slightly better in terms of something that a kid could play with, I guess? Bronies really don't care about any sort of toys other than the molded hair stuff, and I know that has caused some bad blood between them and previous generation fans.
456I sadly can tell you this straight up, if you've never seen a graphic picture of Monster High you are much luckier than I am. There's a TON of it. Shit, there's a whole subsection of the fandom that does that. So that is not safe. It is the exact same kind of people who are pony fans, too. In fact, I know an artist who stopped being an explicit pony artist when that bored him and went to the MH/Ever After fandom because it was rising in popularity and accepting of him. I can also say that the last thing even people on /mlp/ want is the show to cater to them. They hate autists almost as much as anyone. They don't want the show to be about them because that wasn't the show that they all began to like.
457And now, BS from the horse's mouth that is Lauren Faust...
458.SpoilerTarget">Spoiler: And Remember (NO, SERIOUSLY - Remember!) this came from the creator's mouth, too...
459Wow, this is just sad. Just not sad enough to not ignore.
460It all had to come from a response to a person who tweeted to Faust on how the horses go to the bathroom, nevermind that it wouldn't really be important to show in a children's cartoon.
461So yeah. It's simply just a thing, it doesn't matter who the franchise is for. People are gonna make explicit art of it. I've seen it plenty of times. I remember when Gravity Falls was going to air and people were so adamant that they would never be as gross as bronies were. Not even two months into the airing of the show there was a shitload of incest and fetish art of the main characters. Nothing can really stop it, and the only thing that you can really do is make sure that it's tagged properly so that only the people searching for it see it.
462I've always kind of found that series a terrible idea. But I've grown up with classic monster movies and don't like how they have to be butchered to sell to little girls. That's what it is, a butchering. Especially since I, as a casual observer of the series, can see that quality of the toys has gone downhill and holy crap, the quality for the animation was never really there. What, are little girls too stupid to be shown/told the original stories? They have to have them dressed up in pseudo-Japanese street fashion and in high school for them to care?
463I don't have any of them though. I've been more fond of collecting the Presidential Monster dolls.
464Considering how children cartoons like Pokemon became popular, you got people making drawings of Pikachu getting it from Ash. Really, one may as well say no franchise is safe if someone does manage to make explicit art. As for the incest and fetish art of the main characters from Gravity Falls, it shows that regardless of what show it is, it's gonna get hit with that one rule, one way or another.
465The uploader claimed that she was running to catch a nearby concert, but I think otherwise.
466I've always thought Everafter High had an awesome premise. If there was an actual TV series, I wouldn't mind checking it out.
467There's always those guys in any fandom. I watch Power Rangers and there are fans who go "Power Rangers should have a ranger die." You know, they want death so it can make things "dark" and "edgy," That's not mature, that's juvenile.
468That isn't so much "slightly perverted" as it is an idiot trying to be "lol so fanni XDXD".
469It's impossible (NOT) to laugh at this - yet, I can't. I don't know why... Oh, wait.
470There's always those guys in any fandom. I watch Power Rangers and there are fans who go "Power Rangers should have a ranger die." You know, they want death so it can make things "dark" and "edgy," That's not mature, that's juvenile. Thankfully, a large portion of the fandom is sick of those guys and we have no problems shutting them down.
471Killing off a character would need justification. It would need to be handled in a way that does make it mature. It needs a reason other than "they should let the yellow or blue ranger die".
472Found out yesterday that this douchebag that my least-favorite roommate has been letting use our washer and dryer is a brony. I discovered this when he pulled a large pony plush out of the dryer. I shudder to imagine was he was cleaning off of it.

4793 Episodes Later, during the final battle against an army of mooks Roboknight shows up with no explanation "Good to see you old friend."
480Scenes after the battle don't contain him, not even the last shot of the team running together.
481Let's just say, there's a reason I respect Faust and her vision (assholes it attracted aside). It saddens me that Power Rangers has been rendered more of a baby show, by choice according to press materials, than MLP currently is.
482Back on topic, I'm thinking of watching the new doc to see how bad it is. Can't be worse than the first one, right?
483When you see the word "sexuales", it may as well say that. The fact that the youngster tried to steal it for those reasons, one can only imagine how his family feels since he tried to steal a MLP balloon to violate.
484The family feels the same as all families of the fans of the show feel
485"Deranged youngster, tried to steal balloon for sexual reasons"
486That seems like something that /mlp/ would make as a laugh. They love fucking with other autists ane making them freak out. Like answering surveys that make "everyone" look weirder or pissing off fans of other cartoons by rigging polls.
487They told him to go blow up his girlfriend. Turns out someone already did.
488.SpoilerTarget">Spoiler: I can't even look at this gobshite.....
489Man, that image really hits everyone on everything, but I don't get the comment about artists. So they should make art for art's sake, but also turn up their noses at people because their work is valuable? I get thinking that art is its own reward but you cannot live on people thinking that you're a good artist alone. Other than that it's mostly right.
490Would it be wrong to call the brony side the "Austitic seven". Also gotta like the RD counterpart in being an SJW sine that group can deny being like the bronies all they want until they come up with their own stupid head-canon's and thinking the show is anything deep just because it has something that gives them that thought.
491Time for me to continue to be productive against ponyfags, myself... Even if I can't top CatParty, it feels good to still contribute.
492.SpoilerTarget">Spoiler: And THIS was too good NOT to ignore and contribute...
493Can anyone find anything confirming the attempted balloon theft? I can't find squat other than tumblr posts and a copy on derpibooru where it's tagged as "edit" and "fake."
494A Project A.F.T.E.R. associate of mine does some great brony parodies about the fandom here.
495Keep it up. You're only gonna make yourselves look more like fools, one way or another.
496I notice that the worst of the worst tend to like RD. Even in places like /mlp/ her fans seem to be the most hated. Both brony and SJW she tends to have the fans that are the most obnoxious with either "OMG SO AWESUM" or "SHE IS A PANROMANTIC GENDERFLUID ASEXUAL WOMYN DMAB AND YOU CAN GO FUCK YOURSELF IF YOU THINK OTHERWISE"
497I know I've put this guy in DeviantArt Horrors - but this shit needs repeating... This guy isn't that bad an artist. I just don't see all that skill translating to wasting time on an overrated fad like this one that could be used to making REAL ART. Even if just IMHO.
498”I have a picture of a bee vagina, if anyone's interested.”
499He also does five nights at freddy's, a franchise even trendier. Make of that what you will.
500the Mangle porn isn't a hideous tangle of machinery and wires with robotic nightmare titties and buzzsaw nipples?
501He just does what people pay him to do, IIRC. Money is money, even if it's sperg money I guess. If you have no shame or qualms about anything, you could probably make a decent amount.
5021) Noble goal aside, one would wonder if people might decry it as propaganda that is pro-military but that is beside the point. One would wonder what members of the armed services would say.
5032) Considering how many people would want their horse OC drawn as the love interest of a pastel horse or a FNAF animatronic looking sexy, this guy would be making a decent amount of money off what people are paying him. Even if one said he's wasting his skills, would he really care if the money speaks enough to him? Either way, he is making a profit off of something through his skills.
5041) I'm curious as to find out that one someday, knowing this will likely be successfully backed. I just wonder if that kind of dedication to our military could translate over to other cartoons. What would happen then (especially if it were a better, or better yet, a lesser show than MLP.)?
5052) True. At least he is talented at what he's doing. But what happens after this show ends... Is what concerns me a little. Then again, he seems like he'd make a great furry artist.....
5062)He can move on to greener pastures. Even if FNAF and MLP are over, there can be other fan-bases he draw to for money. There's still Pokemon and other cartoon's out there.
507I have a hard time believing you could make anything from that game (series) sexy at all... Yet some people (like him) will try to find a way. Much to my personal going of "Good grief!!". Just another day on dA.
508So um, I've been perusing the internet recently. And I found out that some people out there really really hate Fluttershy. To wit:
509.SpoilerTarget">Spoiler: Had to do this, as it's a bunch of spergy text walls.
510If you have a problem with my harsh, descriptive words involving Fluttershy, I suggest you read this:Let's throw cuteness out of the box (since obviously something being "cute" is a definite opinion based on looks, personality and character traits). Obviously all of the ponies have a general character construction when it comes to looks, it's nothing but the hair, eyes and accessories that vary overall.
511Okay. Let's analyze the character development. Fluttershy is exactly what her name spells out, she's shy... and that's about it. Sure she's done a handful of things that supposedly "showed brave characteristics" but honestly, she only overlooked the danger because it was a animal in need of help. (I'm not saying helping animals is bad) On other occasions, Fluttershy does not speak up, she does not stand out, and she does not change.
512Having a shy character is all fine and dandy but honestly, she needs developmental change. Let's use Applejack as a example for developmental change. There have been a few episodes where Applejack has lied and then come to par with her mistake, right? But take Fluttershy's episodes into hand. One episode she's learned to stand up and speak out and then the next one she's exactly the same again. Honestly, Fluttershy has not changed whatsoever because her character only revolves around being shy. Why can't she be shy and actually be a contributing member to the show's character cast? I mean seriously, this isn't opinion, this is factual information. I'm not saying she's bad because I don't like her colors, or her eyes or her ass-tattoo... I'm saying she's a poor character because she lacks in a very important thing:developmental change!
513Alright, let's play another card. Applejack may not get much screentime (as mentioned earlier) but the screentime she does provide and teaches a much more valuable lesson for viewers (remember, this is a kids show so we have to incorporate the lessons for examples) What does Applejack do? She works. She shows viewers that sometimes in life you gotta saddle up and buckle down for the long haul to get shit done. You can't be a push-over, timid, & un-changeable to succeed, you have to stand up, speak your mind and tell the world you can do it.
514What do I mean by all of that? Simple. Let's pretend Applejack and Fluttershy are applying for a job. (Not anything bias to either character) They are both applying for an assistant manager position for a chain of appliance sales locations.(Obviously they aren't ponies in this case, I just swapped their personas with humanization to make this example work)Since this is a chain, there is a higher-up authority that they have to sit down with and apply for the job with. They both fill out a application, list their current occupations along with talents/traits and work ethic (Which is all rather similar, just different environments they both grew up around).
515So the top dog is looking over the two applications and he's like "Hmm... I'd have to have this ladies come in to talk with me before I make a final decision". He calls Fluttershy in first to convince him since the applications we very similar and both sounded as they could do the job.
516Fluttershy sits down in the office with the big, burly business man sitting in front of her with a intimidating smile on his face. "Go ahead and tell me why you want to be assistant manager here at Ralph's Appliance Center!" he says. Fluttershy looks up with a timid look on her face and says; "Umm I guess I'd like to work here. I mean if that's okay with you.." The business man asks a few more questions and ends up sending her out without a sure answer since her still hadn't spoken with Applejack yet. He attempts to shake Fluttershy's hand on the way out but she was really scarce and backed away before he could.
517The man calls Applejack in later that day. She comes in, sits down right in front of the same big, burly man and says;"What can I do you for today, sir?" The man acted surprised at her confidence and willing to assert herself and began to ask her the same set of questions. "Alright, go ahead and tell me why you want to be assistant manager here at Ralph's Appliance Center!" The man said with the same intimidating smile on his face.
518"Well, I'd be a mighty-fine worker here, I've got what it takes to stand up and get what needs to be done finished without any hiccups. Plus, I'd always be willing to go above and beyond my duties." Said Applejack.
519The man looked at her, stood up and shook her hand. Applejack gave the man a nice, firm, "I want to work for you" handshake. Guess who got the job? It's not bias, it's all based on character development the show has given us.
520What's my point? Simple. You wouldn't want to hire someone who isn't assertive and not able to show proper initiative to finish a job. What good would they be to you if you did? They'd be stuck in the same old rut and never step outside of their listed duties to do anything else.
521You are going to hire the guy (or girl) who walks in, looks you in the eye and says "What can I do for you?" Instead of saying "Yeah, ummm... if that's okay with you, I guess.." Life doesn't give handouts to those who don't stand up to make a change in who they are or at least try to better themselves. You gotta be the one out there sticking your foot in the door of opportunity, not hiding under the couch of cowardliness.
522Fluttershy does not change nor try to better her excessive "Shyness". She knows it's a problem or she wouldn't have had all of her friends try to get her to fix it. She lacks in initiative and developmental change which doesn't make her a poor character by opinion, it makes her a poor character by factual information. If she showed progression, she'd be much better and likable.
523Think about it. Without a difference in potential, nothing would progress and it would be boring. How so? Take a movie. How good would a movie be if we met all the characters and they sat on a couch for 90 minutes? We'd much rather prefer a movie that shows developmental change and has a difference in potential... Otherwise it'd be boring, right? Apply that concept with Fluttershy. (Along with the other examples listed.)
524Daily Mail I know, but I just wonder how Tumblr reacts to this: happy because he was a pony fan or sad because of cyberbullying...from what I've seen they know to keep their mouths shut:
525For every sperg that takes it too seriously, there are some people that it seems like this whole thing helped a little bit. I guess he just had shitty parents who couldn't keep him offline.
526Jesus Christ. You can have an opinion, as spergy as it is because of the content, but know that there's a time and place for everything. And that rant makes no sense.
527this picture. I personally don't see all the hate towards a one trick pony (if you'll excuse the pun), personality wise.
528I honestly think that MLP is gonna be just like rescue rangers or tiny toons. Even more than 20 years after it ends there will still be sweaty man children lusting after the characters.
529Even though I go on a tirade about how the furry fandom isn't on the nicest of terms regarding associated with bronies, Count Graduon is absolutely correct. I remember when Tiny Toons were a "thing" (sort-of) in the fandom back in the nineties. Rescue Rangers too. And Animaniacs, Pinky & The Brain, TaleSpin, Darkwing Duck, Gargoyles, the original Sonic cartoon, Rocko's Modern Life. All of those. True, the fan communities for those shows are significantly smaller today than they were 20 years ago, but those die-hard fans that latched onto that shit in the teens and 20's and used it as their sole character defining trait are still there today.
530My Little Pony will be no different from the fandoms of a bygone era. There will be bronies who, 20 years from now, will look back on this very point in time as being the heyday of their lives, and that is so goddamned depressing.
531So basically, history repeats itself? Considering how MLP will soon be like it's predecessors, one can only wonder if there will be any difference aside from what animal cartoon character they obsess over.
532There will come a time when the current generation of My Little Pony is no longer socially relevant. It's intended/charter demographic grows up, the show fizzles out after a couple more seasons, sales plateau and then slowly dwindle, etc. There is nothing inherently special about My Little Pony; it is not as ubiquitous and pervasive of a franchise as say Super Mario Bros or Saturday Night Live where it manages to actively stay relevant and fresh (SNL-jabs aside). It too will eventually go by the wayside just like everything else does. By their very nature, "Bronies" are doomed to an eventual life in an echo chamber except rather than trading deteriorating VHS tapes and writing bad fanfiction (like it was when I was younger), they're sharing .MKV rips of TV episodes and writing bad fanfiction.
533Granted, back in the day there was no "cultural movement" initiated by people who were uncharismatically passionate about Dot Warner or cartoon chipmunks or whatever, but I don't think any "movement" that bronies started will be of much significance in the long run. The only reason there was a movement at all was because of the widespread accessibility of the Internet in our modern day. People will absolutely remember what a "brony" is, but in due time when their fandom is left only with its diehards they'll end up just being the group made fun of by Trekkies, Jedis, furries, and whatever comic book nerds are called.
534I mean, just from my observations it seems like "The End" is kind of already happening? Like, there was this big surge of interest in MLP and now that the fun has been had by the thrillseekers or the folks just looking for something different, people have moved on to other things. Right now we're seeing the disgusting people more and more often because that's really all who's left it seems. Bronies have terrible collective PR and that's kind of what's going to mar their history and force them into obscurity clouded with bad memories and people vaguely recalling that they "were kind of creepy".
535I don't keep a pulse on every single fandom, but I don't think there's rampant latent zoophilia in any other fandom except for my own, and I sure as hell don't know of any bizarre fetishizing of characters at the forefront of every other fandom. Everyone has their fanfiction writers and shippers and such, but it seems like MLP introduced the wrong kind of cocktail because it attracted some incredibly perverse and unsavory people. I get the impression that bronies, like furries, have this underlying sub-fandom where every sexual fetish is exaggerated and highlighted to an extreme (poniboru and e621 are essentially the same site just for different fandoms, for example). The problem with that is furries had this whole history of doing mostly good work and behaving for quite some time, so we're either able to distance ourselves from the REALLY bad lot or simply own up to the more respectable interpretations of sex in our fandom. Bronies just went straight into it without developing any sense of culture or creed beforehand -- also, it doesn't help that their fandom is built entirely around childrens' cartoon characters.
536As for that last part, furries have enough people that know what is wrong within their own group and try to distance themselves from the less-savoury aspect. Bronies on the otherhand, came out of something from 4Chan where it got twisted with the autism from people who want to literally see themselves screwing one of the horses. Even though bronies can do some good like donating to a charity or to a kid who tried to commit suicide, they may as well have not done enough to distance themselves from the bad part of the fandom, whether it's those that jack it to the horses (whether it's just on the surface or even deeper than what one would expect) or those that literally sperg on how great the cartoon is and think anyone who finds it meh is meaner than Satan. Really, as you said, the name will barely be remembered, either as some group from long ago that focused on a kiddy show or as a name for some village in Poland.
537They live for the negative attention and specifically want to make people mad. The idea that the fandom,or any fandom based on entertainment needs to be policed is a pretty funny concept and a lot of them will bring up Burned Furs when that comes up. Nothing that they do will be good enough for some people anyway.
538I know there are ones that aggressively monitor Google Images and tag explicit images but that's their perogative. Personally I think it's too early to call anything about the lasting impact. Oh and that Everfree thing that shut down was celebrated; no one in the community liked them.
539That suicide had the typical reactions. I gotta say that it's still pretty sad.
540@Kamen Rider Black RX mentioned still finding explicit images even with safe-search on. As for Everfree, what made them special in being unlikeable? Did they do something that even bronies would find lol-cow and/or embarassing?
541Hoo boy. You might have to check around for that one. Basically they tried to be the "official" media of the fandom to thr point where only they could record conventions. Boiling point this year was when their asshole head cornered a show VA trying to get an interview that she was not supposed to give. Totally inflated sense of importance.Everyone hates him and is glad it all fell apart. I think Horse News has more on it.
542There are a lot of lolcows to the fandom, especially with the 4chanesque side of the fandom rather than the Tumblresque one. In that the 4chan side tends to call out/highlight people more.
543Oh, I misspoke. I meant to imply that it's the 4chan side that always is poking at the Tumblr one for laughs. Because they know Tumblr will reply every single goddamn time. They made all those edits of those cartoon mouthpiece things explicitly because they love to watch Tumblr flip shit. It wasn't even to make it positive towards them, just to make it into something that they'd hate. And to be honest, it is pretty goddamn funny to watch.
544I can't find it anymore but my favorite was a "fat acceptance" one that was changed into saying "I'm fat; sugarcoat your words so I can eat those too." That and the edits to whenever they say they're drinking "tears..."
545There was an official iPhone game that was basically a money sink.
546I wonder whether Hasbro will someday officially admit that MLP's main audience are adult males of questionable social capability, and start gearing it towards them, e.g. have Applejack solve global warming through free market economy, or have Twilight give dating advice to lonesome males in an episode.
547Also, I could envision stores geared towards bronies make good profit by selling pony paraphernalia, fedoras, pickup artist guides, Richard Dawkins books, etc.
548So basically, bronies are just hipsters. That explains a lot actually.
549Yeah, a lot of them would hate it. "The day the show acknowledges me, I'm done" is a big thing with a lot of them. Because then it's not the show that they liked. They already have started hating on the comic series that tried for a slightly older audience. Partially because of all of the references, partially because of the declining story quality, and partially because the people behind them are...well, they don't respond to any sort of criticism well.
550Yeah, it would. I remember the people making the show saying that they're still adamant in "making it like they always did," since that seems to work for everyone. Yeah, one of the writers is a SJW that hobnobs with the spergy anti-brony side of the fandom and said some pretty amazing things for someone who works on My Little Pony. He's got some severe guilt issues or something, pretty sure he does it at least partially to trollshield himself. Just your standard "white people in practice can't be victims of racism; men can't in practice be victims of sexism" stuff that his boss was amazingly unperturbed by. He's pretty much a caricature of a neckbeard physically so maybe that's why. I've noticed that the whole neckbearded fedora stereotype tends to have switched to sycophants.
551But the bigger problem is that the people who make the comics are a lot more hostile and less receptive to criticism of their work than the people who make the show. They're not above deleting negative comments and blaming fans for a fault in the comics being their own fault. Meanwhile, the staff of the show occasionally admits that they've made mistakes. It's just that people don't like artists with massive heads who throw the baby out with the bathwater constantly. Many just wrote off the comics completely because airing a complaint to them is like getting water from a stone.
552While there's no games, Hasbro did link up with Microsoft to sell My Little Pony themed avatar items on the Xbox marketplace. Discord fursuit anyone?
553The most the comic staff will do is draw a passive aggressive picture of one of the ponies blowing a raspberry at their "haters" as a stand in for the artist. It's puerile. I think the show staff are better at taking criticism because it's not just one person's work so they don't take it as personally.
554ok i have been wondering why there havent been any my little pony video games. no console or handheld games just fan made hacks stuff like that. seems like hasbro could make money off it
555“So. I just found out that my cousin, who molested me when i was a kid. Is a corrections officer, and a trump supporter.“
556Funny thing about that Kickstarter scam is that someone is actually attempting to make the game a reality. Even then, the guy behind the scam tried to flag one of the people that's trying to make it real with some sort of copyright infringement.
557Hold on... the creator of that video, Sam Hyde (MDE) tried suing someone for making a real game out of his fake game ad? Or somebody tried suing Sam Hyde for making an ad for a fake game based on a real game in development?
558Le Scam Sam is quite the amazing character. I wish someone had saved the video of his freakout where he was like "I promise you! Y-you'll get to fuck the ponies, 4chan!" Hilarity. He wasn't even faking how worried he was, he really wanted to keep the joke going and was visibly distraught.
559It's being redone, but much more tongue in cheek and with the realization of the initial scam.
560As a gift for the brony thread, here's something creepy and cringeworthy I found from /pone/ of 8chan. You can thank them for finding this and don't worry, some of them also find this to be disturbing.
561I have to admit I used to be part of the huge brony fandom. Back when it was starting it was nice meeting people and talking about the story/animation/music but slowly I began to back away when everyone became weird with it.. For example people would start drama on the drop of a hat, how they are sad and want to off themselves, you would seem steam names go from "Emopony" to "I Want To Die Pony" just to get others to talk with them and make them feel like special snowflake, people would erotic roleplay at any moment without regard to others. You would be talking to a group and someone would be like trying to engage in erp with someone. The other bad thing was the creepyness factor that started to emerge from people's obession, like the guy who "married" twilight sparkle or the other that stalked voice actresses in twitter.
562Bronies who constantly talk about how other bronies are bad are worse than bronies themselves. The worst are the previous generation fans that are all mad it's not "their" thing anymore or something. The legbeards go well with the neckbeards. They've been doing this for years. They're not doing it because they just thing that it's bad, they're doing it because they have a personal connection with the franchise that they see bronies as "ruining."
563I think some of them actually think that if they do it enough, people will stop. Again, what haven't bronies been called at this point? I can't think of a single insult from any perspective that hasn't been used. Everything from "misogynist" to "fascist" to "racist" to "neckbeard." And everything else.
564Same thing kinda happened with me. Although it was also mainly due to the novelty of the show itself wearing off. When you look past the fact that it's a MLP show that's actually not terrible, it's pretty much the same quality as most other cartoons.
565It's still fun reading about the creeps in the fandom.
566Every single cartoon ever has Rule 34. Littlest Pet Shop has a ton, so does, Korra, Adventure Time...you get the idea. I'm an incredibly jaded person, so I don't find that all that surprising anymore. But I don't get people being so public with it. I don't need to know what you jack off to.
567God, that Tumblr. How many similar ones have been made over the years? Just circlejerking about how bad "does brownies" are and how great they are. I dunno about the "fun" from reading about the creeps though. After four years, they've sort of been called everything that they could be called and the people really riding on how terrible they are the hardest are usually lolcows themselves. I'm just so jaded about the behavior of both.
568@Shokew will be displeased hearing that. Still, like you, this shouldn't be surprising anymore since you got people who will draw Finn trying to get laid with Jake or a sexually explicit homosexual drawing of two male characters from Korra. As for that tumblr, it's like weeb stories. You got some that have truth but then the rest are copy+paste stories, exaggerations, or just fabrications.
569The thing about that tumblr is that in itself it's ironic. It's basically Bronies saying how other Bronies are bad but they aren't as bad because that one brony does something that they wouldn't do even though they are decked out in brony merch and what not.
570Every Brony tries to troll shield by saying "I'm not one of the bad ones"
571They say that to reaffirm themselves in not being some sort of lolcow. They say that in hopes of not getting a troll to come to them.
572Correct. That is the definition of "troll shielding"
573The show itself, for all it's pro's and con's, is another kids show that has whatever it has, be it a toy-line, comic books, and whatever else there is. Like you say, that novelty is wearing off. The creeps can still be funny when you see them sperg, like when one of them sent a letter to an fan-artist, saying one of the characters he drew sexually was his wife and that he does not like that. (This is the guy who married Twilight Sparkle)
574Considering that Littlest Pet Shop has a ton, I fell @Shokew will be displeased hearing that. Still, like you, this shouldn't be surprising anymore since you got people who will draw Finn trying to get laid with Jake or a sexually explicit homosexual drawing of two male characters from Korra. As for that tumblr, it's like weeb stories. You got some that have truth but then the rest are copy+paste stories, exaggerations, or just fabrications.
575So basically, they are just trollshielding aren't they?
576Pretty much, in the first story you can read how they go "We are gay and we love ponies and watch the movie BUT we aren't that one guy screaming about it and hating it even though he is a brony" that's pretty much what thankfully got me out of the fandom, everyone shields each other by claiming they are better than the other person because they don't do x or x or x but that person does even if x person does something that another x person uses to troll shield for example.
577It's trollshielding only slightly. It's trollshielding usually if you have people like Tom Preston (not a pony fan IIRC, but people like him are good examples of trollshielding) but not in a lot of these cases. You know, jumping on the bandwagon about how much you hate "those other guys" and "aren't like them." Uh, duh? Anyone who wants to judge you personally would be able to tell that you're not like them. But taking up that "but not all X" argument, you make it so it's clearly just about defending yourself.
578There are people who try in vain to appeal to some of these more rabid antis. I don't think that they get how bad that they are and that nothing that they do will change their mind. The antis have been strong for almost as long as the show itself, and have shifted gears many, many times. It's amazing how insane people get over this shit.
579Brony 1 draws a picture of Twilight X Spike, Brony 2 begins to use it to explain that there are weird bronies but he himself isn't as bad because he doesn't ship characters, yet Brony 2 loves to draw fanfiction which Brony 3 begins to it use to explain that there are weird bronies but he isn't as bad because he doesn't write fanfiction but himself cosplays and roleplays as ponies which Brony 4 uses to explain that there are weird bronies but he isn't as bad because he doesn't cosplay or roleplay but Brony 4 draws pictures of Twilight X Fluttershy, rinse and repeat.
580In absolutely every avenue, antis to "proud" to whatever, the sperg is strong. It's spergs fighting other spergs about who is less spergy while the totally not spergy people laugh at them in between jerking off to Adventure Time R34.
581It's always Adventure Time fans for some reason. Have not seen many antis that weren't also fans of that.
582”Dynastia has been organising the sending of penis photos to women for harassment purposes on a near industrial scale.”
583Reprehensible - Simply Reprehensible. I have no other words. I'm sorry if I sound like an A - Log P.O.S. right now.
584For one, we don't really know what happened there. At best, it could of been some error on the part of the actors that lead to this predicament. One can only guess those costumes aren't as good as a normal mascot costume. At worst, they did something that does warrant parents being outraged, especially since there are children out there.
585Those costumes are horrifying. But yeah, that's just something official at a mall in Canada. Oh god, let me see if I can find the video of one of the actors wiping out in one of those things:
586I hope no one got hurt now knowing it was all just an accident, then. Seriously - no one should get hurt, nor hurt themselves, over being a fan of ANYTHING.
587Will anyone mind if I throw this one to the pile? Hadn't seen him mentioned here before.
588The guy claims to be married to a plush Twilight Sparkle.
589This actually made me smile more than it made me cringe.
590He's already been mentioned in both this thread and the old one. As Jewelsmakerguy says, anyone who has been here is bound to at least know a bit about Jin and his antics.
591. Then again, he has been spiraling downward since then.
592I do think that bronies have impacted the show a bit. Without them, we probably wouldn't get the fight scene between Twilight and Tirek in the fourth season, or the return of Discord. I guess that's a good thing, but of course, someone always will complain. Also, brony just sounds like an ugly word.
593”I am xalver nick, I am planing on making troll art to demonstrate and pratice my skills before i go further.”
594Well, Brony was a name for a Polish village. Now it's associated with a fan-base of adults who like a toy commercial about pastel horses.
595One can only wonder what the villagers would have to say upon seeing something like that.
596And it seems like he gets crazier by the day. He's already having his plushie fucking him with a strap-on.
597(If this sounds autistic in any way, I can't bring myself to care, simply because it bears repeating on a personal note.)
598More and more, I'm just becoming increasingly thankful Littlest Pet Shop (or any other cartoon out there I actually like to watch right now, autistic as that fucking sounds) ISN'T popular or good enough to people - TO BE A VICTIM OF BS LIKE THIS (save for the usual Rule 34 spotting...Sad as that is, too).
599In most fandoms, shit exists, even if it isn't at a Brony level. You just need to know where to find it. Or, more realistically, stumble into it and forever regret it.
600And if, by some chance, the thing you are a fan of has a spotless fanbase, I can assure you that there is a 100% chance that Bronies have found whatever it may be, and corrupted it.
601I've been observing the shit that comes out of MordeTwi for some time, now (as well) - all I can say to that is... No. Just No. Especially as a proud and major Regular Show Fan.
602Same here as a guy who has watched both shows. Really though, as stupid as the ship is, one has to wonder if anyone sperged way too much about their hatred of the shipping, especially if it was a brony. Even then, one would wonder, why ship these two characters together? They aren't from the same franchise and last I checked, unicorns in Regular Show were obnoxious frat-boy dudebro's.
603Even if they started a relationship, they'd find that they don't really have anything in common anyway.
604One is a slacker that ends up having dangerous things occurring in his life (getting in a shoot-out with animatronics, nearly getting punched by a game-show host, etc.) while the other is some princess that has things occur in her life (some demon attacks her friends, vines invades the town she lives in, etc.). Outside of being cartoon characters that have some sort of hi-jinks, there isn't much common ground between the two.
605THIS. Chemistry and interests are everything in a relationship - besides being able to care for one another physically and financially (Cold hard truth - you gotta be able to provide.).
606As much as the show staff get harassed on Twitter, gotta say that she got this one wrong. That guy was a dick. But to be fair, so is that Purple Tinker person. Less than in previous years though.
607Point is that the whole EFN thing dying was a good thing.
608Another thing, Mordecai is already in a relationship last I check, and Twilight doesn't really have any love-interest aside from an implied crush. Still, why bother discussing about some shipping when the result is already known: It's just a shipping that not many like, be it from Regular Show fans or bronies. At least one could look into the sperging of MordeTwi.
609Um, this uniformed guy to the right - am I correct assuming that this is a Rainbow Dash Airforce outfit he invented?
610The name means something like till or farming implement iirc.
611I wonder how hard it is to see out of those things.
612Yeah, I was wondering about that myself. I assumed that it was something like Zed from pulp fiction.
613MordeTwi. I'll never forget seeing as how people try to ship those two together despite the fact that you got fans of both shows, both regular fans and other fans (bronies and whatever the Regular Show fans could call themselves) despising said ship. Looking at the image, I can't help but feel Mordecai is creeped out at what the horse is saying as she feels his hand against her cheek. This is just like the SonicDash shipping I've seen.
614There's a reason why horse-themed joke suits required two wearers back in the day.
615I'm just kind of amazed that it's not just like, one person shipping them.
616IICR, watching the suits in action, they're one-person suits, with the back ends being loose and the back legs dangling.
617Having worn a "quad-suit" before I can confirm that performing any kind of task in them, no matter how simple (walking, looking forward, etc), is nigh impossible. Attempting to choreograph something with multiple people wearing those kinds of costumes is just asking for trouble. Assuming there is not some kind of weird periscope apparatus that the person has on their eyes, I want everyone reading this to assume a runner's starting pose and then cock your head upward to look forward; that's the pose you'll be in just to look ahead.
618They could have but unfortunately, that could in someway scare the kids if the suits themselves didn't make them feel uneasy.
619She's basically telling bronies to get a girlfriend and grow up. It wouldn't be hard for one brony to get a girlfriend if she was like him. Only problem, she too could be more into the horses just like him. On a serious note though, I think that was already said enough. Even then, would that really change the sperg?
620You'd figure they'd give the suit actors an easier way to see in those things. You know, like in the eyes?
621Well the thing with quadsuits is that your head generally is not where the head of the animal is. Because of this, the mesh that the actors see out of is generally somewhere on the neck of the suit. The head is purely decoration.
622I'm afraid that would not be enough. His worldview and self - image are in need of major changes. That might require stepping back from what he loves (which is that show, for example), for awhile and doing some self - re-evaluations for a bit, even if just IMHO...
623Even then, I'd also ask myself if the lady he asked has any prior knowledge of bronies or even this guy. She could of given more other than grow up (such as have some self-awareness and light in that room). Looking at the intro and outro of his video makes the grow up thing more understandable, whether or not it does involve horses.
624This thread should have been called My Little Brony II: Electric Scootaloo.
625.SpoilerTarget">Spoiler: Also, from Sticky Hooves. He's a brony that might violate your soul
626This video is a parody of the "Vegan Vagina" video that made its rounds a few months ago. "Sticky Hooves'" version is literally a carbon copy of it except "vegan" is replaced with "pony".
627Here's the gist of the original video filtered through one of my current favorite alternative comedians:
628Don't know if it's really lol-cow material or not but @Abethedemon shared this with me:
629Maybe not lolcow, but might get a lolsuit. The character is copyrighted, and to the extent it creates the impression that the outfit is somehow associated with the Hasbro FiM properties, could give rise to some kind of trademark action, even though the character itself has only been used once.
630Depends how aggressive Hasbro's lawyers are, I'd suppose. They've certainly gone after fan content when it went commercial, but this is kind of an oddball. It's definitely commercial activity and I'd be surprised if they don't get at least a C&D.
631Honestly, that particular writer has had egg on his face quite a few times. If the company he worked for actually cared, they probably would have fired him after all the people that complained.
632His apology also kind of seemed more like he was sorry he got caught and that he wanted that article to be rewritten. And one of the original posts is still up anyway, and he still follows/reblogs the person who gets him in trouble. So he didn't learn anything.
633I doubt they'd try to touch it. Acknowledging misuses like this is more harmful than ignoring them.
634It's kinda hard for me to explain but what I mean is that they could of taken some random image of Capricorn to use for a restaurant.
635Thank god they left her bikini on. In spite of that...
636Yeah, I need to go look at some real porn to burn the stupid away... That usually is the only cure for me - sorry if that sounded creepy or anything, but at least real porn has merit over fucking kid's show nonsense.
637One can only imagine how that person from China felt making it (assuming it was for money). Even then, imagine any neighbors, family members, and the like seeing it.
638I'm reading the specifications on the listing page and one particular point in the list stands out for some reason...
639Usage: Advertisement, parties, clubs, parks, outdoor entertainment, backyard Imagine this being used for the birthday party of a Chinese kid, or the advertising of Chinese bootleg My Little Pony toys. One would have to wonder how much of it could do to make a quick buck and how much was to just cash in on bronies and such.
640It's official - and I thank China for this, but I'm finally broken... May whatever aliens out there conquer us and make us see how much we, as humanity, royally suck - because...
641And, to repeat myself - I used to watch this cartoon frequently, if not a lot - what a twat I was...
642*Edit: Checking out this group, they appear to be a company making inflatible balloons of some sort, the kind you see for the likes of advertising, like those giant gorilla balloons you'd see at some car lot. Also, it apparently isn't the only "sexy" balloon they make. In light of these being categorized under "Billboard&Shape", I can only imagine that pony balloon was probably mean't to be advertisement for either a kid's birthday party or some adult party. Then again, it's not like one would stick to its intended purpose.
643Tumblr had other ideas? I don't want to know, I just don't want to know since it's freaking Tumblr. Either way, 3500 of them? Why do I have the thought of a brony with a tomb where these things are lined up like the terracotta army? Even then, one can only imagine how the people who have to make this thing feel (and I mean those that have to piece together this thing. I'm sure some of them are questioning why people would even lust over it aside from possibly any co-workers or even their boss).
644and mass-production sales. You can buy one yourself for $100, or you can get several hundred for your own businesses for under $20,000. I only know about this because someone KiwiBigJ (my fake tumblr used to back KiwiNull's tumblr and observe Vade) was following someone who reblogged this.
645*Edit: Taking one last look at what this group offers, there is this. The listing had this as "Inflatable Animal Sex Toys". This makes one wonder why the horse one they made is listed as ice cream cone (what that has to do, one wonders what ice cream shop will even use it) if this inflatible tiger gets listed as a balloon mean't to do nasty things to. Got to love China in making these bootlegs.
646”@Mods here are fags is our newest member. Welcome!”
647And now, because some faggot KiwiBigJ was following posted it on his dash, and now I need to share my agony with the world writ large, have some evidence that humanity itself has failed, straight from China:
648Basically, they're interested both in private sales and mass-production sales. You can buy one yourself for $100, or you can get several hundred for your own businesses for under $20,000. I only know about this because someone KiwiBigJ (my fake tumblr used to back KiwiNull's tumblr and observe Vade) was following someone who reblogged this.
649A fine example of the kind of idiots who blur the line between Brony and SJW, with some eerily similar OPL-ness in there over how much influence he thinks his words hold:
650Yet another screwup from the crew of MLP-related things, including "apology":
651pony comics? I thought IDW learned their lesson about not having writers who actually despise the franchise they work on years ago after booting whoever the hell it was that drove the Transformers comics into the fucking ground and bringing in James Roberts for his magical ability to somehow unfuck everything.
652Hell, come to think of it, Roberts probably should do the pony comic, too. He's gaurunteed to at least give more of a shit about the comic he's writing for even if it's a girl's toyline.
653That writer openly hates the fans of the comic, not the actual franchise. Though he's a pretty bad writer and clearly projects onto his work to a hilarious degree. And I'll bet that he "apologized" only because that article was written. He asked for it to be revised right after he "apologized" for not reading things that he reblogs, looking at the times. The problem is that he follows many people who are incredibly toxic and always reblogs from them. The main person that made that first blank post infamous is one of his favorite people and he couldn't bring himself to delete her post apparently.
654IDW isn't exactly run by very smart people, it seems. I've heard from other Transformers fans that they screwed up their comics and their reaction to me describing the IDW pony situation is "We could have told you this would happen."
655Well, if anything, this is a sign that Pony is hitting the first of the franchise phases where the incompetent CEOs want to please the investors more than the actual consumers and put jackasses with fancy, impressive resumes into positions they logically are going to fuck up big time.
656Sadly, it's already designed for mass-production. You can have 3500 of them for a low price.
657I could have gone my entire life without knowing this. Sadly, Tumblr had other ideas.
658I'm actually a little sad I didn't stumble across this on my dash. Reblogging horrible things because I think they're funny is kind of my thing.
659That look that kid has? We know what that look means. We all know what that look means.
660The problem is that he follows many people who are incredibly toxic and always reblogs from them. The main person that made that first blank post infamous is one of his favorite people and he couldn't bring himself to delete her post apparently.
661That person, the heinous Cuteosphere/Dragondicks is the person whose OC he drew into one of his MLP comics, resulting in the last shitstorm-in-a-Dixie-cup he was involved in. You think he'd have learned from that.
662Apparently, /Pone/ has a cringethread. Perhaps they will share whatever cringe bronies have, aside from any that may of already been mentioned here and in the previous thread.
663To be fair the rainbow dash blowup doll was generally hated on derpiborru however it does say a lot about how bronies are perceived by the rest of society
664On the subject of derpiborru, one of the admins complained on tumblr that someone created 300+ accounts just to downvote images of flash sentry (twilights love interest in equestria girls) hoping that it would remove flash from the series
665*Edit: Forgot to actually post the attached image since it's kinda related to the image above sans the sign. Really, it might be one thing to own a shirt but owning the toys could make one wonder if there is some dark purpose for it such as having a "special time" with it.
666Don't most feminists dislike bronies because of their association with the fedora tipping crowd? Which I never understood if it's true and there are a lot of mra type bronies, or if it's because of the "hasbro needs more flattering depictions of male ponies!" whining.
667I know a fedora-tipping brony at school and I talked to him a couple times. He's nice, but he goes on rambling tangents, leaving no room for people to chip in. Maybe because he's lonely and wants people to listen to his thoughts? I dunno.
668Maybe because he's lonely and wants people to listen to his thoughts? I dunno.
669One must ask, what thoughts does he even ramble about? Is it about how Hasbro is ruining the show even though they own it?
670” being called shit is not "mentioned positively." ”
671I used to do that a lot, and I still have a penchant for it today. I literally didn't know how to have a conversation. I knew how to tell people about things, but that is one-way communication. I think you are right about him being lonely, and that is his way of reaching out. If you are feeling altruistic, you could tell explain it to him that long-winded explanations are not how most people communicate, and he doesn't give room for other people to talk.
672Explaining MLP to a girl could be his idea of flirting. You should also tell him to never talk about it to people because no one gives a fuck.
673Explaining MLP to a girl could be his idea of flirting. You should also tell him to never talk about it to people because no one gives a fuck. You can turn this man's life around.
674That's entirely true, Johnny-boy. But I'm a shy mofo, and I barely knew this guy. Besides, he's really smart and knows what's right or wrong.
675All sorts of things. From what I remember, he fully explained in-depth about MLP to some girl and stuff about "energy drinks with natural sugar" and bitching about how math is hard in the morning (that I can't argue with).
676I never seen him ramble about how Hasbro is ruining the show, though.
677he should be apologizing for mlp not trying to explain it
678There are different kinds of intelligence. You can be book-smart and social-autistic. Just because he can run recursive function stacks in his head doesn't mean he knows how to communicate with people. I would say something to him. This semester I've already told one brony no one gives a shit and to stop talking about it to strangers. (he was talking about it to me, I had my gay furry wolf hood on, so he must have thought he was in good company)
679He shouldn't apologize for the MLP conversation. He should apologize for even watching it.
680Probably, but then again I like to keep things to myself. As I said, I barely knew the guy.
681It is probably worth sharing that the only reason I am a sensible and sociable person with friends is because in high school I befriended a girl who over the years trained me in social interactions through the experience of being friends with her. She did get upset with me from time to time, but for the first time in my life, her friendship, friendship period was more important to me than being right, or feeling like I was right. These people literally do need to be trained. I didn't have a single friend until I was 16 and befriended that girl, so I had a lot of catching up to do and mistakes to make. Anything you tell them about the rest of the worlds population really helps.
682Thank fucking god this iteration of MLP wasn't around yet when I was that age, because the concepts and basics of friendship are indeed foreign things to bronies. If I didn't shape up, I could very well be a today.
683I have to wonder, when the tugboat sailed in, how quick Chris took to order one of those RD blowup dolls, we all know how much he loves pone, and how many blow-up dolls he has...
684Also, I'm surprised how much SJW's dislike bronies. A community I left because of the SJW invasion had a big brony group leading said invasion.
685Probably didn't get one, not when there are other things he would want plus the balloon probably isn't the right shape for him. I mean if he complained about blue armed Sonic, he could dislike non-horse shaped RD.
686Also, lol to that invasion if it wasn't some trolling attempt since I can't help but feel that could of been something done by a group like /MLP/ just to mess with SJW's and bronies. Still, perhaps the SJW's are brony in all but name. They just don't want some masculine sounding name for whatever reason.
687Hell, one could imagine a Catch a Predator episode involving a brony is this was around mid 2000's or maybe some Law & Order episode taking some sort of angle on them like they did with gamers (unwashed, lonely, etc.).
688I was thinking a little about this quote, and I came to the conclusion that there are two potential effects of being a shut-in with no true friends: 1) you become a woman-hating fedora-tipping possible-brony and definite-loveshy, or you become a social justice warrior.
689The basic concept of friendship wouldn't be alien to some of them. Not if it mean't that some bronies end up sperging or just terribly singing the theme song of the show in a public place such as the park
690SJWs mostly dislike bronies because honestly, it's really the sole fandom that they're not firmly rooted in. Ever since then they've jumped on anything that is animated in hopes of hoarding all of the toys into their toy box or something. It's kind of sad, but after five years most have run out of things to say and rely on the same arguments that have little basis.
691I've seen people before that usually get to their late teens without any friends, or at best, just "gal-pals." They go on to blame their own sex for not accepting them, and how men are all terrible, etc...I've seen how these people were. They were the generic "I'm more enlightened than you" people who then wondered why no one wanted to spend time around them.
692How this applies to bronies is similar to how it applies to SJWs in general: you get a lot of sycophants who vie for approval on anything from women because they give little respect to anyone else. And really to women either. Generally I don't care how people act as long as they're happy, but this is a pretty big problem that shows how we as a society have failed in some way.
693All this being said, seeing people sperg over one second of ponies during a Super Bowl commercial kind of proved that anti-fans can be just as bad sometimes.
694Excuse my ignorance, I don't really watch sports but there were ponies in some Super Bowl commercial? So did it really made people get upset that a commercial about a toy-line was being aired? One can only imagine that some people probably got a bit too sensitive at seeing something not many others would really care about, especially if it means the anti's were no better than what they mock.
695At :35 in this video, this aired during the Super Bowl. It was a scene specifically made for a commercial and designed to show the theme of "we're all NFL fans" or something. Also had The Lego Movie and the penguins from Madagascar in there, so it wasn't unique to ponies. But guess what was the only thing antis cared about?
696Feminism is a really vast concept, so it's hard (at least for me) to think of feminists as a hivemind. I'm a feminist myself, but I also like ponies. Even groups like the Tumblrite SJWs have schisms and splits. I guess why the main SJWs dislike ponies is probably because of the whole neckbeardery surrounding it as other people said. There are plenty of overzealous bronies across the lands of the internets, and I suppose their zealotry became neckbeardism over time.
697Again, it's because it's THEIR toys being played with by someone they don't like. They don't want to share. And as females, they are entitled to a space without any males. Unless they're self-hating of course. Gotta love the self-hating ones.
698Then, the show was discovered and in some ways stolen by a group of women-hating, misogynistic men who took ownership of it. Suddenly, children's media with which girls can readily identify and is intended to send positive messages to young girls (anyone who saw that Super Bowl commercial with the "run/punch like a girl" stuff will understand the importance of such positive messages in a young girl's life) is no longer purely the domain of girls. If some of the bronies' stories are to be believed, some girls even reject MLP for being too much a "boy thing" due to overexposure of the brony community.
699(Disclaimer: this is a viewpoint I only somewhat share, and not with the possible vitriol I may have espoused here. My ex-boyfriend enjoyed the show and hated the "brony" community, and I don't mind that kind of fandom. Of course, I'm a fan myself, so I can't exactly complain this hard about the community without sounding like a hypocrite. I'm just trying to explain the distaste.)
700I just don't think female characters being competent should be considered anything special. It shouldn't be. In fact, putting them so high up and pointing at how bizarre it is for a GIRL to be doing that is bad because it makes it look like it isn't normal. And to be honest I don't think girls are so weak that they constantly need to be buttered up about how they're strong. If anything it's really a self-fulfilling prophecy. Also, Rarity is not rich, she's actually portrayed as sometimes embarrassed by her "common" upbringing that gets in the way of her trying to make it to the top, which is shown as snobbish idiots.
701You might not think all that is anything special. It shouldn't be. But stuff like that super bowl commercial I mentioned seems to indicate otherwise.
702I wasn't talking about the MLP super bowl appearance, I was talking about the "run/punch like a girl" ad as evidence that girls really do need more empowerment at a young age.
703It wasn't a trolling attempt, it was too gradual (happened over a couple of years) and if they were brony in name only, they sure did buy a LOT of pony merch to keep up the illusion.
704OH, this just made me remember the roots of the brony stuff. If I recall correctly, regulars of /co/ on 4chan thought it would be funny to say that a show for little girls is good according to thier demographic. Those who clearly understood the joke parroted what the original group said, and it spread from there. Soon after, autists thought all these people were being serious and well...
705The original efforts are what planted that seed that made it grow to its peak in 2011. Now it is claimed by the spergs forevermore
706The whole "they stole the show" stuff is BS, sorry. The people who make the show said they haven't changed how they made it at all and the fact that girls don't want to touch a "boy thing" is not the fault of the show or the fans of it. I take those kinds of stories with a grain of salt because they are/were too often used as "SEE LOOK I'M RIGHT THE TARGET AUDIENCE AGREES WITH ME" and don't actually care about them (which cannot be said to actually have a common opinion.)
707I've known girls and grown women who have been deeply invested in franchises for boys for years. I was one of them. I know plenty of men who grew up with Sailor Moon and weren't afraid to say so. But then bronies come along and circlejerk so hard over their specialness they had to make a whole documentary on how daring they are.
708Two of those documentaries were made by people who were involved with the show in some way and actually were more about their experience than anything.
709No one is saying those people can't make a documentary on Superwholock or Tumblr or whatever. The fact that people sperg so much over those documentaries strangely seems to be based more on jealousy than anything. Bizarre, because those documentaries aren't anything to be jealous over and again, were made by people working with the show. As far as what they've actually done, I think it's too early to assess what the minor footnote they've made has been, but I genuinely do think both them existing and the massive amount of negativity towards them is more than the sum of its parts. It says something about certain groups during the time period, but it will take time to find out what that is.
710The whole thing is an example of the Streisand effect in action. Imagine if people had just let that one thread on /co/ exist without sperging out about how "bad" it was. It would still be that over four years later. But nope, gotta blow it out of proportion and get people who would otherwise be clueless informed of it. It's why to this day I don't get people who simultaneously "want it to stop" and actually can't stop complaining about it.
711That would be true. You had some who liked it in whatever way, be it legit, ironically, or with shame. As said before, they made their own sort of joke with it only to get taken too seriously by spergs who think the show is more than a cartoon and think "love and tolerate" wasn't someway /co/ anon's would use to angering haters and trolls but a legit saying from the show. Now you get people who call themselves bronies, complete with any level of possible spergery (not that the name could matter if one said they like the show and hated the fan-name but still sperged over stupid crap) to people self-aware of the spergery (to the point they would call themselves something along the lines like horse-fucker).
712As said before, they made their own sort of joke with it only to get taken too seriously by spergs who think the show is more than a cartoon and think "love and tolerate" wasn't someway /co/ anon's would use to angering haters and trolls but a legit saying from the show.
713Furries just don't seem so bad compared to everything that's came since.
714Or maybe they've been out and proud for so long we've just gotten used to them.
715I'm of the volition that the "joke" that started it all is really 50/50. I feel like to some degree there was a deeply rooted personal shame for liking MLP that a handful of people wanted to pass off under the guise of a "joke" so that they could talk about a show they only "hypothetically liked" without fear of being ridiculed because "LOL U GUISE ITS A JOEK".
716We have 20 and 30 something men taking a 30 minute toy commercial seriously. It is a damn shame that the fact it was a joke didn't come to more light; bronies would look back on their brony phase as people who grew out of their goth or emo phase.
717I desperately want to believe that is the brony legacy, based on a ploy.
718Even the "best of furries" used to not be so cuddled and accepted. Because at the end of the day, they're still furries.
719Bronies supplanted furries who then were supplanted mostly by SJWs. Most cringe threads have gone from them to just SJWs and people related to them.
720Paraphrasing Filthy Frank, "Making fun of bronies is like making fun of the kid in class with an eyepatch. There's only so many jokes you can make before it gets boring."
721I don't understand the mlp thing or bronies at all, its all too modern, I miss the 90's and 2000's before the brony label came out. tbh, I hate the brony label since people think nowadays all autistic grown men loves that shit but I don't... I was into girls stuff long before year 2010 so don't blame me for the exceptional bronies.... I don't even find ponies "sexy" at all!
722I was into girls stuff long before year 2010 so don't blame me for the exceptional bronies.... I don't even find ponies "sexy" at all!
723"my dick always follows my heart, not the other way around" "gets me closer to the character's personalities" "it was the same for me with Sonic" "Despite the fact that they're ponies, not because."
724"my dick always follows my heart, not the other way around" "gets me closer to the character's personalities" "it was the same for me with Sonic" "I don't clop to ponies, but I've clopped to waaaay worse things!"
725"I don't clop to ponies, but I've clopped to waaaay worse things!"
726“just cause im a crazy mother fucker doesn't mean i cant tell you guys really need some help“
727One can only wonder what sort of chan those came from. Then again, considering the dates those were posted in the video, along with the fact that it was mentioned in the video. Either way, this is just autism, pure autism with those who serious.
728three of them. Apparently they can't contain all their autism in one place.)
729The posters are from /mlp/, I believe. I heard recently it got merged with Ponychan or something, but hell if I know, it's all the same to me. I think /mlp/ is supposed to be the grossest of the three pony imageboards. (Yes, there are three of them. Apparently they can't contain all their autism in one place.)
730No one is saying those people can't make a documentary on Superwholock or Tumblr or whatever.
731I never wanted to have the idea of a Superwholock documentary in my head ever.
732Well, a Superwholock documentary could come off as more impartial than that of a brony documentary, especially in showing how the fandom is.
733i mean superwholocks do not wish to sleep with child horses....
734I've heard of some pretty fucked-up stuff on the Supernatural kink meme like the main characters (or their actors) being into dog-fucking.
735Well, looks like two fandoms do share something in common and it involves animals. Thanks for that bit on a Supernatural kink meme, even if it is hearsay.
736We had a Superwholock thread but it kind of petered out.
737This guy kinda knows he's a neckbeard, and I like him for that.
738That's because Superwholocks are spergy, but not as batshit insane as adult men obsessed with a little girl's show. It's that one extra step that takes you from weird to total lolcow community.
739Honestly the Superwholocks are probably jealous of all feelings that they could feel. They'd do that all if they had the money, they already have enough sperginess. They're just teen girls.
740I really don't want to know what they do once they all meet up, and the images in my mind will haunt me forever...
741Before you ask "Are you having a stroke?". No, I'm not.
742A while ago, I ran into something rather weird while trolling, and this wasn't even obscure brony weird. Apparently, someone decided to combine ponies with foot fetish. And this isn't even good art, so the guy restlessly stalks people on brony and furry websites to make sure nobody uploads his work and to make sure nobody says anything negative about him. Needless to say, he his fucking hilarious, and his entourage is even funnier (Yes, this guy has amassed hundreds of followers.). To show you how bad this guy really is, here's a piece of 'art' he made:
743As if getting off to cartoon fluorescent ponies with tramp stamps isn't bizarre enough.
744One can see what you mean. As for this guy having an entourage, one would question on whether or not it's just sockpuppets. Even then, it has to be something if he chimps out at people criticize his art. Got any examples?
745Wonderful, next they'll make MLP sex toys- oh wait...
746The last thing Hasbro wants is a raftload of news stories about pony sex toys.
747Don't mean to double post but I forgot to leave this here the other day.
748My brother has a substantial bit of the 'tismz and LOVES My Little Pony. Well, he doesn't love MLP so much as he loves being a brony and having some kind of pack mentality, as I think is the case with a lot of socially awkward 13-30something men who become part of an internet cult thing, like furries or bronies. This does have some lulzworthy results, though. I was talking about Ferguson at the dinner table some months ago and he said something to the tune of "judging someone for their skin colour is the same as judging someone for liking ponies!" and I facepalmed. I'd post some of his MLP fanfiction but I can't bring myself to do that at the moment. His MLP fanfics and dubs are his pride and joy at the moment, maybe I will share them when he grows out of it.
749And as for the brony pack mentality thing, I think the same kind of thing is at play with us Kiwis, but with less horse loli and sperging about how we're an ~oppressed fandom~ or whatever.
750Why do I have the feeling nobody said "no" in that thread?
751I'm totally not angry that white cis men took something I like.
752”I asked my mom to lend me the money but she refused after hearing that i intended to purchase a gun.”
753What the fuck man? That's not even the right comment.
754A lot of these companies/individuals don't even appear to be in the US. You forget that China, southeast Asia, and eastern Europe also have bronies. They probably don't want to sue a brony, as I'm going to assume that bronies make up a considerable percentage of their revenue, and C&Ds often get things done quickly.
755Augh. These weirdos have ruined a perfectly nice kids' program. For a while a handful of boys in the 2nd grade classes were enjoying it. I told them about how I had occasionally modded ponies years ago, and still had my collection from when I was a kid. I was pleased that the show had become diverse enough to appeal to all genders. Then they asked me if I was a "pegasister."
756Then I was sad they had knowledge of bronies at all.
757I want to see "In what ways do you break brony stereotypes?"
758they lied about not wanting sex with underage horses
759One would wonder if Chris Hansen is a contributor for the show. Either way, you only scratch the surface. Don't forget the individuals that have higher power levels, the ones that are into diaper ponies, pregnant child ponies, and other things that make you wonder what why it exist.
760Even with decent members and all, you still get the creepers that make you wonder what is with the creepy stuff. One example to your plain gross part: a brony put a RD figure in a jar full of fluid, fluid Chris used to mix with orange Fanta. That is all. First you have the spergs and then you get the creeps. The name "brony" itself isn't liked when you consider the group the name came from (being from 4Chan long agao) prefers a term like nor/mlp/eople or horsefuckers.
761I wanna say you get that with every fandom but....no the bronies are extra gross. And what compounds the ridiculousness is they take shit way too seriously. I watch a children's show aimed at little girls, it's girly as fuck and pretty damn childish and I'm cool with that. But when they go into "No it's really deep and thoughtful, it's a masterpiece and dashie is my waifu and I'm an alicorn griffin hybrid princess" I have to stop myself slapping a bitch.
762And people wonder why when I admit to liking the show I immediately clarify with "but I'm not a brony", the fandom is just plain gross.
763It's not just the fanbase that makes me ashamed to have ever touched this show - it's just that this show is so fucking overrated and cheesy, even when it's actually trying making an effort to be good in my eyes. And Equestria Girls and those who thought that BS up can go rot in the deepest, darkest, most burnin' up part of Hell.
764That is what MLP will always be. Just a glorified toy commercial. As far as respect goes, it only deserves it if it managed to entertain people, having some sort of admirable quality. Unfortunately, some treat it as more than a toy commercial.
765Eh I just lump that into the "it's a little girls show created to be a 22 minute advert for toys, what did you expect pile" myself, it's the people who treat it like the show should always be respected and should be treated as way more than that who need pity.
766They don't need pity. They need their asses kicked - including for bashing cartoons I actually like (not saying examples of what I like here. Trust me, you don't need to hear them...Or me sperging, for that matter) over their overrated as Hell BS like they own the place. These scum have no respect for good cartoons, IMHO... Especially if they were so willing to bash the older shows so meaninglessly.
767Oh, and I clicked on that latest Horse News link - do these people not understand that there are legit reasons for us to hate them, their show, and their BS, more than I do En-Tard right now? And I'm not just talking "it's just an opinion", neither. These people are scum and deserve to be treated like such.
768To see the word Ponyfag, such people into the show would prefer that or horsefucker due to realizing what the brony label carries. As much as how you do get people getting too spergy against MLP or bronies, it doesn't help that bronies themselves do have those that think they are being persecuted when in reality they are just being annoying.
769”but then that United Nations conference on cyberbullying happened”
770Gotta be honest even before knowing the negative connotations to the 'brony' term I was using ponyfag anyway simply because I refuse to take being a fan of MLP seriously and using a 'special term' for being a fan is stupid as hell. I don't think people would have half as much hate for bronies if they just accepted that being one is pretty goofy and had a sense of humour about themselves.
771It's already been done enough times to make you wonder: Hasbro, where are your lawsuits? Why can't you try to at least stop a company/individual in the U.S. that modeled it's product after one of your pastel horses?
772In my experience bronies have a major victim complex and loooove an excuse to act like they're a persecuted minority being oppressed by societies archaic views of proper behaviour or some shit like that. I mean I do freaking love the show, I'm a total ponyfag and will take my lumps for it, but it's not the best thing in the world and liking it doesn't make me some super brave champion of fighting the system, it makes me an immature ass chick who likes watching pony cartoons now and then. If more bronies could just shut the fuck up about their weird fetishes and get over themselves, I think they'd fade into the background petty quickly but right now they're enjoying being the victims too much.
773The Wikipedia page on the My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic fandom is 131,371 bytes. It's nearly twice the size of the Star Trek fandom one (70,920). To use articles about things that matter as a benchmark: Julius Caesar is a mere 97,643 bytes and William Shakespeare is 100,595 bytes; ffs Wikipedia, I thought the reason Wikia exists is to send all the fandom shit there.
774My Little Pony has reached a size where it's notable and has ample media coverage. Good, bad, interpret as you wish.
775Those self aware would realize how the fandom is. Even then, the name brony was just some random post between two guys on 4Chan, one said ponybro, the other replied "moar like brony, amirite" or something like that. Even then, Brony was just nothing more than the name of a Polish village.
776I'm of the belief that the show started out with the intent to be more than a toy commercial (as some of the stuff I've read about Lauren Faust's intent with it would lead me to believe), and regardless of what happened later, this permeated the show and at least gave it the necessity to be slightly more than a kid's show by developing the characters significantly and setting up the kind of plot and humor that made it appealing. That being said, it definitely turned into a toy commercial (albeit one that is, as mentioned, perhaps a little deeper than the average toy commercial, by necessity) sometime before the end of season 3, when Alicorn Twilight and Equestria Girls became a thing.
777Don't confuse anger and dissapointment. It isn't that they took what I love. It's how bronies infected a kid's show.
778Also it's obvious that I hate all cis whie male scum. I'm a panromantik trans kittykin.
779I'm still in the fandom just for the fan music. I like the show, but I could care more.
780I think being a female fan of the show is a bit easier, just because I grew up with the original toy line and nobody assumes I'm a creepy sex pervert for liking ponies. The adult pony fandom before gen 4 was pretty much entirely women anyway, and they're collectors and modders. Still nerdy, but with less secondhand embarrassment.
781Considering that, one would wonder if they are in the fandom just for the cartoon and not something else. I'm kinda for that for some good fan-art such as Dark Souls themed art or parodies of the show aside from the show itself. Really, one would wonder if some that called themselves bronies do it because they like the show.
782think the 2011 or 2012 "MLP convention"exclusive ended up being the same exclusive pony from SDCC - that is, Fashion Style Derpy Hooves, which only existed because of the G4 fanbase.
783By now, though, I think it's somewhat calmed down because of the clear divisons between people who are into MLP for the whole franchise/toys and the "bronies" who are only for the current incarnation's cartoon, which I also think will not last past 2017 at the latest as damn near 7 years for ONE toyline incarnation makes MLP:FIM the longest running cartoon-advertised toyline incarnation in Hasbro's history. Given the reliance on Equestria Girls as the main pony toyline these days, I suspect Hasbro will kill FIM for the next generation provided their gambit of the Jem and the Holograms film being a much-needed miracle success and taking over as Hasbro's main girl's fashion doll franchise.
784So I got curious wtf Horse News was and first article I stumble upon is
785I know this is a bit late, but oh my God, what is it with sad nerds thinking they can be Hunter S. Thompson when they do stuff like video game journalism or cartoon reviews?
786Why do you think they turned the ponies to teenage girls? They knew the bronies are creepy pedos.
787this. And since Highschool Romance seems to be a kind of modern idée fixe in present-day American (Nerd-)culture, turning the ponies into Highschool girls was a surprisingly obvious step...
788Again, it's because their competitor was doing it and they wanted to displace them...which they did, thanks mostly to Latin America. Seriously they sell much better in Latin America than the US.
789But I watched maybe five episodes - selectively - from S4 because it's really getting kind of boring and both the "epic" 2-parters at the beginning and ending of the season tried to shake up the status quo but ironically managed to just cancel each other out (No more Elements to Care-Bear-Stare-Rainbow everything into submission by S4E2? No worries, S4E26 reveals the build up all season was giving the main characters the same fucking power except with unexplained pony super forms. Oh, and the loss of the library a.k.a. basically where half the show has taken place over 4 seasons? Inexplicably replaced with a giant crystal tree-castle that looks entirely out of place in a town mostly comprised of thatched roof cottages.)
790At the rate the show is going, it's alarming how it's slowly losing the balanced dynamic between the characters - the whole reason the show was good - and gradually focusing more on Twilight Sparkle's rapid development into a magical mary sue. Those five episodes I actually watched? Twilight wasn't having a crisis of self-faith.
791"you make me want to cum in my own mouth and spit on my dad "
792Will attempt to keep the sperg to a minimum, but the finale episode was all about her having a self-faith crisis, wasn't it? Because she was the only one of her friends that didn't have one already?
793And the season premiere was also about her having a self-faith crisis.
794And the season finale for the previous season was about her having a self-faith crisis which somehow meant she was ready to have wings randomly bolted on.
795And both Equestria Girls films are, essentially, Twilight having a self-faith crisis, though not so much in the second one because Sunset Shimmer takes about half of the self-faith crisis loadbearing since she's essentially supposed to be Twilight Sparkle in all but appearance, name, and the fact she sucked even harder at finding a good social circle of friends until Twilight basically told the human versions of her pony friends to be Sunset's friends.
796And the season premiere for S3 was...well, in fairness she was being an obsessive perfectionist who got hung up on a small detail and wasn't ultimately the solution, so if anything, this was the kind of "self-faith crisis" the show should stick with for Twilight.
797I do not have high hopes for S5's premiere, because while the whole creepy Stepford Wives-esque angle of "equality" being stamped on all the pony butts and something about cutie mark theft sounds interesting, I'll be shocked if some bullshit character-caused problem that doesn't make the immediate and obvious solution viable is not in fact something to do with Twilight Sparkle having a *gasp* crisis of self-faith.
798Like, I get this is a 22 minute cartoon show meant to sell plastic horse toys, but when every single "major" plot can't build up to a proper climax without ms. Sparkle suddenly going through an existential breakdown every damn time now, there is ample ground to argue the show needs to stop making everything require only Twilight Sparkle to be the sole solution to every damn thing.
799Well, some people are guessing that the Season 5 premiere plot might involve something that could be interpreted as a political message, maybe? And I remember that people were thinking that Twilight would stop freaking out constantly once she became a princess, but that didn't seem to stop happening.
800Most of the laughs involving the franchise now directly comes from the creators of the comics which among other things cannot and/or refuse to accept criticism for their work and deny that sales are dropping.
801”Why doesn't @Null just ban me? I wouldn't be able to come back, and therefore, you have no content, and the thread would die.”
802There are whole pockets of die-hard bronies who fucking eat that shit up, even though it's a broken record.
803Here's an example. Abandon all hope ye who click that link, because that thread is just infested with more or less nothing but absolute spergs who eat up Mary Sue Twilight shit and question ANYTHING that isn't 100% hugboxing their stance on loving the show unconditionally.
804EDIT 2: Somehow forgot about the guy I even made a thread for who I'm positive ships himself with Twilight Sparkle because she's becoming a mary sue.
805bronies sperging about the show in a thread created to laugh at bronies......
806The sperging really should stop shouldn't it? This thread is mean't to laugh at the gross things done by bronies, not discuss about some cartoon they sperg over (which would deserve to be in a tv show thread, right?) unless it had some cause with them like making a horse have wings. Could the sperging lead to the thread getting locked?
807It's one thing to be perverted about a kids TV show... But when you pretty much permanently walk around with porn of it on your body, you have a special kind of idiotic gross perversion.
808.....I watched maybe five episodes - selectively - from S4 because it's really getting kind of boring and both the "epic" 2-parters at the beginning and ending of the season tried to shake up the status quo but ironically managed to just cancel each other out (No more Elements to Care-Bear-Stare-Rainbow everything into submission by S4E2?

810Hell (at least IMHO) Littlest Fucking Pet Shop (2012) on the same channel is becoming a better show more and more for me in comparison, and that show is nothing to really write home about that many, many cartoons I have seen growing up and today have done far better, IMHO - and THAT (my admittance to liking an underdog cartoon like Littlest Pet Shop (2012), to be specific!) is NOT something I feel comfortable saying here or anywhere else without being told my taste in cartoons royally sucks and I should go kill myself right now.
811The Season opener and finale for Season 4 sucked MHO, and in terms of the show itself are a key factor in why I've really grown to hate this show - then again, Season 3 overall helped me realize how horribly overrated it all is before the fans of it and their suck-up BS got to me and left me utterly annoyed, creeped out, and above all, pissed off at all the hypocrisy about their understanding of what friendship truly is.
812But I always see criticism of pony even from fans. At least in some communities, they realize how spergy being a fan of this show is and can realize that they can't possibly make all these statements without being (rightfully) laughed at. That being said it is funny when people take it the other way and you get infamous people like DisneyMaster.
813It's honestly more rare to see something that they tend to like. If an episode/whatever is considered decent, hardly anyone talks about it but if it's considered bad, people obsess over it for weeks.
814I don't know, but I checked up on DisneyMaster and he's still as bad as ever. Also, what's with some spergs and My Life as a Teenage Robot like he is? I mean I watched it but all I could really remember was how they redesigned the main character so much from the original pilot. But yeah, DisneyMaster was hoping that the 2017 pony movie would bomb or something.
815But yeah, DisneyMaster was hoping that the 2017 pony movie would bomb or something.
816only way both Equestria Girls films were shown on the big screen and remained profitable.
817Jehovas/evangelic christians and bronies? Now that's an interesting clash.

822For further clarification Genesis 16-9 is "Then the angel of the LORD told her, "Go back to your mistress and submit to her."" In the New International version of the Bible.
823I just found it a little amusing that in this instance the Bronies come off as more tolerant and educated.
824Horse news is probably one of the few bastions of rationality in the fandom.
825@#803 - Yep, just another day of proving that liking this damn pony show brings out the worst in people who see through your BS for what it is. Where's that love and tolerance, now?!
826In less than two decades we've gone from blaming spree shootings on video games and metal music to My Little Pony and bad machinima series. I don't know what to feel.
827What love and tolerance? All there was is spergery and a line from 4Chan being taken out of it's true context.
828Littlest Pet Shop just never tried anything different from MLP but did it a lot worse. How it got multiple seasons is anyone's guess.
829Like even with Transformers they made the show around the toys not the other way about.
830Okay, I'm pretty sure that you have all heard that hongyi has created a pony themed blowup doll by now, but if you haven't, here's a link to an article talking about it:
831No high school it seems is complete without its own loon. My high school had this one brony (Also the craziest and possibly the poorest kid at my school.). He walked around the north building (My high school was huge, so it had 2 buildings.), with a CD player and some weird pony merch.
832Weird pony merch? So was it expensive, terrible looking pony toys?
833Another time I ran into a brony (Or just a weird fan of fantasy.), was when my band took a trip to Mackinac City/Island. We were wandering through a bunch of the specialty shops, and we came across this amazing place that had a bunch of stuff like chainmail, swords, and cosplay. On our way out, we ran into a guy around our age, wearing a Hawaiian shirt, and he began asking us for pony stuff, we ignored him but he was partially following us for the next couple hours, and we eventually lost him in this souvenir mega-store (For people who're too busy to go find actual souvenirs.). And I swear I saw him playing with a pony, kind of kissing it.
834Wow, this is the most articulate six-year-old girl I've ever seen. Wait, she's not six? Huh.
835@Shokew or anyone else saying there are better strong female characters from other cartoons.
836How did that community react to the bronies stepping into their terf?
837And then there was this fine, happy, easygoing equine enthusiast, an even-tempered rural British gentleman whose interests included riding, breeding and racing horses, and one day he thought: I'll try using this newfangled internet to learn more about my hobby. I'll do a Google search of "horse news".
838Seems to be the season for spergs to go full postal (or would that be Hatred now).
839This sperg killed two people, and as you can see, has a grab bag of super autism. Not just a brony but into something called RWBY as well.
840Here's his Facebook and here's the Horse News story.
841The school seems to be something National Guard-related rather than tard-related.
842I note he didn't update his relationship status, although murdering his girlfriend would probably make him single now.
843So when I was 16 there was this weird guy who hanged around our school. He got arrested few times and was the main crazy of the town. So before we get to the revalation of this guy (lets call him hobo) let me share few stories of him. So when I was 16 (again) I went to fetch my bike after a day of school. I walked around the building and there the hobo was crouched over some kids bikes. The bikes were the size of what first to third graders would ride. Hobo was SNIFFING the bicycle seats. I froze when the hobo saw I was watching. He yelled some curses but before I composed my cocky 16 year old me, teacher came. Hobo got scared and stuttered "I-I-I was just w-w-walking here". Teacher told that he already called the cops and told me to go home. Don't know what the cops did to him. I saw him few times lurking around the school yelling to children. Once he asked me if my "head" was hurting. I told him yes whats it to you ("hue hue, I'm 16 I will fuck you up"-attitude) Hobo answered :"why did you then fuck a pile of rocks? Find a hooker". I got served so bad and ran like a bitch.
844So last Thursday my old school mate, who is a plumber, told me that he found really bizarre and weird shit on one of his jobs. There was a block of flats that needed a heating pipe renovation. Main line went trough the cellar and residents were told to clear the storage rooms in there. One of the guys didn't remove his shit. The cell had a 1,5 meter tall disfigured paper mache pony. The pony was partially covered with paint, old shitty mats, hair and glued grass (or straws). There was a hole cut where the pony anus was supposed to be filled with foam in a cylindrical shape. There was a plastic pucked behind the pony. Maybe to help with mounting the hideous creature. My friend told the landlord that he needs this shit moved out but landlord told me that the resident was in some sort of mental hospital/jail right now for trying to molest/drag a child and his mother was in charge of the storage cell.
845This Monday my friend found out from his mother that the guy was the same old, bicycle seat sniffer, hobo. His mother and my friend removed the pony and some boxes full of comics, diapers (?), mlp figures, toys etc. The pony had to be cut to fit trough the door
846So there. I found this hilarious and creepy cause of IRL ties to this guy but I hope some of you guys can atleast get some giggles and spooks.
847This was posted earlier in the thread, but I wasn't aware it was for, um, "science." How is that a science experiment?
848Yeah, not gonna happen. The show will still have people above the young age enjoying it for whatever reason plus the characters will get sexualized for whatever reason, trolling or otherwise. Plus, I'm sure you'll get people such as @Shokew or anyone else saying there are better strong female characters from other cartoons.
849I'm of the volition, at least given the evolution of the nature of the furry fandom, that the community is a way for a lot of closeted zoophiles to vent steam like a tea kettle in short bursts. Every once in a while though you'll see someone from the fandom do something that's a little too far over the line and it destroys the illusion that the fandom creates for them (see also: TranLord). Usually, people get away with it because furries still retain "enough" humanity to pass as human-ish characters and no one bats an eye.
850Bronies don't get that same privilege; their characters are literally just horses. Sure, they're cartoony in appearance but for all intents and purposes they are feral representations of horses and there isn't that anthropomorphized character design to hide behind. When bronies do creepy things it seems to give off a more sinister and depraved vibe both because it's a show for young girls and also because it's far easier to implicate bestiality into the fray. Does anyone else feel that way or am I just overthinking this?
851Not at all - It has been noted (albeit quite early on in the thread...) that even furries are ashamed of/mostly annoyed by these people, so it makes some sense for you to even point this all out.
852If he willingly excludes himself from other people, that may be why he bought that pony stuff. Then again, that could just be wishful thinking (I can imagine people not wanting to be with others while in public could do that though they leave themselves open to other things). Even then, the fact that he had a meme printed on his shirt makes one wonder if he gotten any flak for it due to its nature.
853It's probably most likely that the pony stuff is the cause of his... friendlessness? I don't really know for sure if he actually talks with anybody for any length of time, but people sure seem keen to avoid him. He's a target of open ridicule and hushed laughter whenever he walks past; if that were me I'd aim a little higher than being that guy with the meme t-shirt and my little pony backpack. Maybe he has some kind of social problem, I don't know. (I hope so, at least.)
854Well, whether or not he gets rid of the stuff, he could still be subjected to ridicule, especially if it was before the pony stuff. One would wonder though: Was he also a target of ridicule from other bronies?
855It still gets me when I see somebody flagrantly expressing their love for my little pony in public. I always see it as a weird thing that's confined to the internet, but the reality is much, much worse. Especially when you spot an archetypal fat guy with a nasty beard and crusty ass shirt with this printed on it.
856I'd seen him before; waltzing past me with a my little pony backpack shaped as one of the characters from the show without a care in the world. I have to admit that I stared, in morbid curiosity at the man who dared to pay real money to have a dumb meme printed onto a black t-shirt. But there it was, happening right in front of me like a horrific car crash.
857Why? I never see him with anybody else (he spends most of his time browsing an I-Pad he stores in his Rainbow Dashâ„¢ backpack,) so it's obviously effecting his social life. I don't understand why you'd willingly exclude yourself from other people in such an embarrassing manner. I'm having trouble figuring out the thought process that could lead to him thinking that it was a good idea.
858I just saw someone with a Rarity avatar on the "Let it go" youtube video saying that Frozen was a horrible movie and only little kids like it
859"A brony has no right to criticize people for liking anything."
860I figure if you have an unironic avatar of certain franchises on Youtube, you have less of an opinion. MLP, any kind of anime, FNAF, anything Disney...if you want a cartoon avatar, go for the classics or at least something like EEnE.
861Would that less of opinion occur because said person who responded to say "Frozen sucks" because said person has a Frozen avatar?
862They're both adults talking about cartoons designed for children. Have some self-awareness to how stupid you can look if nothing else.
863Knowing that the popularity of both FiM and Frozen is inherent in chan culture in general, I think they might have some overlap and that's why they can't stand each other.
864Basically, people being having flame wars over which is the better franchise for things not even market to their demographic.
865Hopefully you keep insulin in the fridge because this article is about to give you super ultra diabeetus.
866”Laugh all you want, but don't go off crying when this website goes down for good.”
867Kind of ironic how a show that preaches friendship can be the cause of being all alone. Well, I take that back, the show itself isn't what causes people to be alone, it is their own obsession with it
868I love Frozen and have a collection, but I know it is for little girls at the end of the day. Not that I am trying to troll shield just admitting I know my fandom isn't aimed at me.
869Hey I'm not ashamed to admit that I love Frozen as well. It's Disney, has songs that actually fit the story and while it's aimed towards kids it can be enjoyed unironically by adults. And yes, I do have "Let It Go" as one of the songs on my iPOD and own the Blu-Ray. You however will never see me with a tshirt, backpack or anything else depicting the characters from that movie. Even the things I'm fanatic about will rarely make it to a tshirt.
870I somewhat like MLP, but I have to hide it. No, not because of the "haters" as typically no one is going to say a thing to my face. No, because the other fans ruined it for me, I have to hide my power level because spergy, broken people will glom on you. And I can think of nothing more tiresome than discussing why certain seasons were worse than the other. Bronies want to whine about that all the goddamn time. Dudes, it wasn't that good to begin with. Just colorful and with some funny moments.
871I remember when Cheezburger network did an April Fool's day joke where they posted nothing but Littlest Pet Shop images on the Brony board. I had a pretty good chuckle over it. Bronies flipped shit about it... Dudes, it's kind of funny.
872Also, I like Frozen too. It isn't my favorite disney movie but it's not the worst. I liked it. The Brony/Frozen thing reminds me of the Harry Potter/Pokemon rivalry that only exists in OPL's mind...
873Disney makes their feature films to appeal to a general audience. It's not weird for an adult to enjoy a disney film, since disney intended to make it enjoyable for adults and children alike. The same cannot be said for FiM. That was specifically designed to sell toys to female children. So you can't really compare the two.
874Hasbro has explicitly said that adult fans in general are a market. There's many arguments to be made about all of this but it's unrealistic for a company to limit themselves to one demographic. Hell they talked about how important licensing is and that's all adult fans.
875A lot of the "it's not for you" arguments are again from people who aren't six year old girls.
876The two are comparable in that they're both made by companies that target every market that has some money in it. One demographic "stealing" something from the other is a silly concept because no company with any brain at all would really want their product to appeal to a niche.
877I mostly said that in reaction to some people's attitude that people who like disney are on the same level as bronies. I agree with your points.
878that being said, disney did create a lot of furries.
879There is something wrong about 20 & 30 year old men that are obsessed over a cartoon series made for little girls.
880But I just can't wrap my head around the popularity of MLP. It is baffling to me how a show about pastel colored girly ponies can be popular with adult men. If it was well written or genuinely funny or had a message that no other cartoon series ever had I could at least give it a pass but I can't. There is something wrong about 20 & 30 year old men that are obsessed over a cartoon series made for little girls.
881Especially if they then turn around and say "it teaches good lessons."
882Those "lessons" are what they teach in kindergarten. Adult "men" using that as a justification, it's just wrong. It doesn't make you appear like a normal person, it makes you look like a pants on head shortbus rider. If you enjoy watching MLP, I have no problem with that. But to say it teaches you life lessons? No. Just no. You just painted a target on your back there friends.
883They spent time in the doc talking about bronies using these lessons. "What would a pony do?" ring a bell?
884If Bronies were a bit tougher, they'd use Powerpuff Girls as moral guidance: Someone mean is around? Beat him up. Then beat him up some more.
885I watched the first two episodes of MLP:FiM and I think it's pretty much nothing special to be honest. At least the Powerpuff Girls or any magical girl series(particularly titles that involve a lot in fighting), where there's entertainment value that can be gained out it, but not in MLP:FiM. If adult men have to rely on show about cutesy, colorful equines for moral guiduance...they REALLY need to rethink their lives ASAP.
886Don't mean to double-post but I got some stuff to share from horse-news.
887Glorifies Sexual Predator, doesn't see the big deal about it.
888Former member of this website got her own Horse-News article.
889Thanks to one of the comments, the kiwifarms just got mentioned.
890Dead suspect computer contain's pony pictures of a certain nature.
891For me, it's hard for me to be fan of any of Hasbro's properties that are cartoons including AND besides MLP (like Transformers or even LPS, surprisingly...) when what I've pointed out above rings the truth. That, and there are better cartoons to get attached to, just not like how the ponyfags do.
892Like I said before, there are better cartoons out there, IMHO - (AND NO, Even though I admit to sperging about it (only because I actually like that show... well, more than the show on subject, anyway) Littlest Pet Shop definitely ain't one of them! I know THAT for a fact.) Then again, ALL of Hasbro's shit (and anything else like it out there, including Transformers, for example...) equally sucks in one way or another (if not completely) for being nothing more but toy-selling, forced moral nonsensical BS, that people my age (27), from example) should NOT be learning anything from at this point in their lives or any after middle school, to say the least. If you need to learn shit from things meant to be toys - you're doing some seriously wrong shit in your life, or worse, you've made some horrible decisions in your life that cannot be reversed (not even easily), especially when it comes to functioning in the real world with others.
893I'm still butthurt that the kids who bullied me for years about liking MLP ended up turning into hardcore ponyfags in highschool and started their own little brony club.
894Just posting another HN link. Apparently some people really hate a character whose name is based on wordplay of a fashion designer.
895Kind of funny they complain about Nazis when that attempted Halifax shooter was an admitted pony fan. Oh, and what a surprise that that controversial comic writer liked it.
896I figured it was kind of because it was both a character that was popular with fans AND one that was demure. They really dislike demure female characters because they could potentially be appealing to men and that's wrong/not something women should do apparently. It's also because the Tumblrite spergs hate any toy that doesn't have hair you can brush, so a pony that they hate being one of the only one of those triggered them or something.
897The average Brony is almost as much of a spaz as that "God danged Harry Potter"
898Regardless, one must love how Hasbro managed to bring out the spergs, whether its in the bronies or the tumblrites that as sperg as the bronies.
899Jesus christ! Not even OPL has Man Tits that big! Some prostitutes can't even get them that big with surgery!
900Bronies scare me. Really, I have fears of a fat neckbeard rushing through my window, threatening to slit my neck because I bashed his show meant for little girls.
901Tumblr SJWs claim to hate bronies, while doing literally everything that bronies do, including making porn of ponies. Or being fat neckbeards who literally wear fedoras, like Ted Anderson.
902It was less "cheese cake" and more pretty much straight up R34 of characters that are undeniably under-aged. Really, that's usually what the SJWs who complain about bronies end up liking most of the time.
903It makes you feel any better - I can't sleep at night sometimes because that's all I ever think about. Maybe if this cartoon had been considered universally bad, I might feel safer. Too bad that didn't happen and now it's like I can't have a contrasting opinion to the crowd out there without fear of getting beat up by exceptional people who think this shit is okay. It just... isn't.
904Dragged through the worst mud, muck, and bodily fluids that said Autistic Person has.
905I once saw a brony on the train. How did I know that it was a brony? He had a giant pony doll GLUED onto his shoulder, of course a fedora with pony buttons, and a pony bagpack. This was probably the first and last time I saw something so bizarre. How can you leave the house like this?
906But the grossest thing I saw was a brony who inserted a MLP figurine into the vagina of a horse. Again: he raped a horse with a MLP figurine. This made me despise the brony fandom forever.
907I've seen the picture on /mlp/ of the second one. It's real. I am sorry to kill that bit of faith in humanity.
908No. People who have sex with horses tend to drug and restrain them before doing anything like that to them.
909The funny thing is before I was exposed to how that sort of thing went down I didn't have an issue with horsefucking. It was gross and I never wanted to do it, but I always assumed that a horse would kick your ass if it didn't want you messing with it. Turns out the horses are bound and roofied first. That actually makes me kind of angry, horses have been Humanity's bros since the beginning and they deserve more respect than that...
910Somehow I can't help but doubt those stories (the first being the glued horse, second is inserting a toy horse). Then again with the first, one has to wonder, why glue a horse toy to your shoulder. The second one, one would honestly have to be deprived and/or crazy to even do that, and not to mention, it probably wouldn't be far off when considering one brony defiling a plushy while another one put his own toy in a jar of his own seed.
911Sigh... More and more... I miss Dan Vs so much right now. THAT was a real cartoon to sit down to if you loved your Western fare enough to not bash it like every "critic" and "reviewer" senselessly does anything from the West without thinking first...
912God... I feel so stupid for typing all of this, but it had to be done, even if it feels like I'm repeating myself, so I'll reiterate a higher note - I really miss Dan Vs. and wish more cartoons like THAT had been made at the time.
913Agreed on Dan vs. One of my favorites. Unfortunately it had the bad luck to be put on hasbro's cartoon toy channel and therefore wasn't really given a good chance.
914Have you seen the Dan Vs Facebook page before? He's made some choice comments about bronies before.
915No - and now I honestly do want to see what Dan Mandel and Chris Pearson (the show's creators) have to say about this BS...
916If no one beats me to it, I can post some screen caps of the comments when I'm back on my pc. Also it's Dan Mandel that runs the Facebook page as far as I know.
917Oh, the things they say on there are pure magic. Why couldn't Dan Vs. been given to a better channel? It would have flourished on Cartoon Network.
918I wish I could doubt everything too. But nope I have seen it. I'm sure the horse rape pictures (there are 2 of them - I still remember it because I was fucking disturbed) are still somewhere on the internet. But I will not search for them to prove it. I hate animal cruelty. I saw it on an anti brony blog on tumblr but it got deleted. Believe me or not - I don't care. It's better no one sees these things - for their own well being.
919I think the show is better without having to go for mature humor. It's too easy imo. It's funny the way it is.
920Dan Vs isn't a fan of the bronies (or MLP in general).
921These are both comments that some brony left on the page.
922Then a few months later he actually posted this to the page as it's daily update.
923The comments on that aren't noteworthy, just a bunch of dumb MLP/Dan Vs crossover fanart (which he's also gone on record of commenting negatively on people's bad artwork too, probably because of this.) A lot of people post pony crap to the page, but he's stopped responding to it now.
924Also someone shared that the above post was posted to horse news.
925”At my local comic book store there's a sign on it reminding its visitors to take showers.”
926Dan Vs should have nothing to do with bronies because it just doesn't fit. The only reason spergs keep lumping them together is just because they aired on the same channel. The shows couldn't be anymore different, really.
927I didn't realize that Dan Vs. was even a thing that DIDN'T have anything to do with bronies, because up to this point I've only seen the character in MLP fan videos (specifically, fluffymixer before he turned the series into his OC character (do not steal!) shagging with a season 2 villain that never showed up in the series again...
928You're not the first person to think that either. It might be part of the reason the creator of the show is annoyed with bronies. Also seems rather hypocritical of the flufflepoof guy to steal another intellectual property without giving credit while also throwing a fit when people take his totally original oc (do not steal).
929In regards to the Flufflepoof guy, it was mentioned here or in the Fluffy Pony thread that he himself didn't like bronies because of what they did to fluffy ponies (which last I heard wasn't liked in the fandom due to its violent nature. Someone also mentioned that in some way, he himself is a cow which could be interesting).
930Fluffy ponies are despised pretty much everywhere. Even /b/ flips their shit when people post them, which is the only place they aren't instabanned.
931All the Dan samples that ended up in the Fluffle Puff stuff were lifted directly from the show.
932It would make one wonder then if the Dan samples were stolen in whatever way (traced, taken from some file of the show since I hear it's made in flash, etc.) but enough of that, don't want to go off-topic so to get back to bronies and such:
933As for the Fluffy Pony thing, @Konstantinos mentioned how they were really despised by all that the only place you could find them would be in a booru and other pages no fan would really want to stumble upon but the Fluffy Pony thing is for it's own thread.
934*Edit: Looking in the comments of the Futashy baby article, it mentions the thing being from 2012 (the Tumblr) and that it may of been for "sloganeering". Still, there is the fact that a couple named their baby "Dovahkiin" so this could be possible.
935We understand that this choice might be a little controversial, but with some people naming their kids Shaneequa and Oranjello I ask you, isn’t a beautiful name like this better?
936I just noticed that in an article about The (former) Hub, Dan Vs. wasn't even mentioned in the list of shows that they had. IIRC even reruns of pony and old cartoons from the 90's got more views than Dan. I'm kind of sad Mixermike doesn't use Dan as a character anymore because more people probably know him from his videos than the actual show.
937I don't agree. Not unless he started citing he was lifting Dan directly from the show or otherwise advertising it. The Hub was awful with advertising and did not advertise shows off network, and they still barely advertised Dan Vs on their own channel.
938The show is good and could have done great had it been put on a channel that believes in advertising.
939The article that I read about the Hub had some people speaking anonymously on the subject. Apparently neither Hasbro nor Discovery really knew what to do, Hasbro just kept throwing money at it and wondered why it didn't make returns while Discovery just kind of sat there. Well, that is until Hasbro wanted to move all of their shows to Cartoon Network...
940The show's target audience (or at least most of it) wouldn't even watch the Hub, which was mainly known for ponies. That pretty much doomed it outside a cult audience who somehow found out it existed (largely from Internet word of mouth).
941That's exactly why it needed off network advertising, so people who would never normally watch the hub would know it existed. Actually I remember the Dan Facebook page making a snide comment about that at one point, it was just discovery/hasbro not knowing how to tv station.
942Considering how discovery/hasbro not knowing how to tv station, bronies may as well partially be responsible for at least giving them viewership (at least for a new episode which would get uploaded onto the internet) for the channel. Then again, one would wonder if they knew how to tv station.
943A quick check of the statistics for viewership of the finale last season put it somewhere around 750k? That's usually only season premieres and finales, seems to have been around 400-500k for a premiere otherwise. Demographics of a normal kid's network watched it age-wise so you might be right. I heard somewhere that Dan never got more than 100k at any given time and occasionally lost to 20-year old reruns/B-rate movies.
944Does the pony viewership list the ages? I know the show is still popular with its target audience. Its just interesting to wonder if the bronies actually add to ratings. Especially since a lot of them feel like they should be catered to.
945Honestly I wonder how many bronies actually watch pony on tv or if it's just via stream\download. For some reason I feel like the latter is more popular, but I could be wrong. Are there any numbers on this?
946Apparently ages 2-11 grew something like 300% while 11-17 was 150% and above that was similar. There was a press release a while ago that mentioned something like that in terms of numbers. "They add a decent amount" would be a fair assumption. Maybe a 70/30 distribution of kids/adult fans.
947I remember the hub played re-runs of the old 90's batman cartoon. Shit was cash, yo.
948It really wasn't much of a station and isn't now either.
949Neither Hasbro or Discovery seemed to have understood what "equal" meant in the phrase "equal partnership." The article said Discovery apparently assumed that since Hasbro paid for half the network they could run it all, and Hasbro expected Discovery to run it if they just threw money at them.
950Well, at least that is another reason why Tumblr can be terrible outside of SJW's. This can be one reason why the brony fandom can be seen as creepy just like with other fandoms in that there are these sort of people who have this sort of diaper fetish. Either way, thanks Tumblr.
951Worse yet, crapping and peeing in the diaper fetish. From what I hear, MLP had gotten more dirty art in three years than Pokemon could do in 10.
952So, the question remains: how much of the internet is MLP porn?
953This is because the pokeporn guys had the kindness to come up with a code word so that kids looking for Pokemon wouldn't get flooded by grotesque deviant porn on Google Image Search.
954Pokemon is the only series beating out MLP in terms of how much porn is has.
955Paheal's list of popular tags. "Porkyman" is Pokemon.
956Ah, but MLP is divided into My little Pony and Friendship is Magic. I'm sure there is a lot of overlap though.
957So, does anyone know about this yet? Or am I late to the party?
958”Anyhow, who among Everyone in this world has not had a dream of having sex with one of their parents?”
959Also I remember there was a SJW from IDW comics that had a controversy over telling someone grieving of a family member to check their privilege I can't remember if it's this guy or not though
960is this fat neckbeard brony wearing a shirt against fat neckbeard bronies?.....what?
961Oh no, he's a fat neckbeard brony that's ashamed of being a brony, so he's cool with the people he wants to impress. He bought a t-shirt they made after all! He is an enlightened individual that really cares for women, not like all those JERKS and fake feminist men who just do it for money. That person you mentioned is one of his favorites.
962He's also the kind of person to delete posts and has openly admited that he doesn't read things before he reblogs them. I personally would love to hear a third-string writer on a My Little Pony comic's opinions on gender politics. It totally wouldn't be terrible at all, nope.
963Oh, and he also thinks that one of the actual ponies that was in the show was a Nazi reference. I think he needs to learn that when you "like" something on Tumblr, people are going to assume you agree with it.
964Hey man, Nazi references aren't cool! My great uncle died in the holocaust!
965There was a guy that was creating cloplube that is to have the texture and taste of the pussy juice of the Mane 6. It never quite started.
966I worry I'm desensitized to it all. I'm pretty sure I've seen everything the fandom can do so now it's just kind of boring. Lots of samey sick fucks that are the same joke.
967One must wonder if such a person got reported for such a thing yet.
968Recently was sperging about how Joss Whedon isn't a real feminist or something.
969Considering that, one can only wonder if there will anything new to rip on with this fandom. Either way, that may as well be the worst about bronies: they end up being like the other fandoms after their shock factor settles down.
970If Inkbunny banned all their autistic pedophiles, they would have no users.
971There's now a whole sordid collection of vile fetishes, many from hentai or /d/ that are now basically featured in the rule 34 for any given fandom. Stuff like vore, inflation, unbirthing, tentacles, farts, tickling, incest, cuck, humiliation, that shit Amazing Atheist is into, guro, futas, fuck. No point trying to list all this shit. Now, no matter what it is, there isn't just rule 34 of it, there's every vile kill-yourself-tier fetish imaginable of it.
972Hello 911? I need you to arrest all the bronies now.

974Ug, the cum jar pic makes me heave every time... I blame the guy who took it, not the people posting it.
975Boiled in a jar full of old neckbeard cum. God damn I know it's just plastic but a part of me feels bad for that pony.
976I don't mean to double-post but I may as well leave this here: since I previously mentioned a memory that was similar to the jar, I looked back in the old thread that it was posted in and the video was taken down thankfully. The unfortunate part, fellow kiwi's, is that this brony has his own Tumblr. It's as creepy as it is and I'm leaving it here just to let one understand the horror if they are still curious to see what makes this one creepy. What Kamen Rider Black RX said in response to seeing the Inkbunny pedo brony, that may as well apply to this guy since what he does is just flat-out creepy and disgusting.
977this is a fate I wouldn't wish on anybody ever, not even a cheap plastic toy from China
978It really makes one wonder: whether it's brony, some curious fellow, or anyone, why put a toy in a jar of male fluid?

980Like most of the worst things on the Internet, this comes from 4chan.
981.SpoilerTarget">Spoiler: Not Safe for Any Sentient Being View attachment 17970
982I think like most things on 4chan, the guy did it explicitly so he would become a "legend" that people remember for years.
983.SpoilerTarget">Spoiler: Warning: Keter-class Memetic Hazard
984As with many pony-related memes, I suspect it was inspired (if you can call it inspiration) by "Cum Bottle Guy" or "Jizzus Christ," a guy who has for eight years posted a picture of his, well, output every Christmas to /b/ (where else).
985.SpoilerTarget">Spoiler: Warning: Keter-class Memetic Hazard View attachment 17978 View attachment 17979
986The whole Brony fandom started as guys on 4Chan having a laugh, right? It evolved from there into what we know today, right?
987Imagine this being the Toy Story universe where the toy is alive the whole time while nobody is looking.
9884Chan is it's own hive of whatever one could call it. Either way, they started the fandom and they ended up attracting less than savory fans, especially the kind that makes some of the others look rather decent in comparison.
989Id like to think that if it were going by toy story rules, then all the other ponies he has (because you know hes got a whole collection, him being a ponyfag and all) would've rescued the poor little thing and then begun a violent, bloody rebellion.
990The ponies wouldn't just rebel, they'd drop the jars on the guy.
991The problem with acting like an idiot for comedic purposes is that you attract actual idiots who think they are in good company.
992Yeah, they'd end up attracting people who fail to see the joke, thinking it's all serious and not comedic.
993Edit: Nevermind, it seems this has already been said previously.
994Yes. That is a blowup doll. I suspect the light purple patch in the "gooch" is "functional" (even if the person buying it obviously isn't.)
995That's disgusting. Why would anyone sexualise a horse if they weren't into bestiality?
996Probably because bronies have always seen her as the token lesbian of the group. They want to see their glorious mare on mare action, obviously.
997And preferably with Applejack, the other Lesbian-type character, I would have to guess.
998I wouldn't know, I don't hang around these creeps.
999They only made one of those. Somewhere in the urban sprawl of a megalopolis in Mainland China, a Chinese factory worker gets off his 20 hour workday and goes home to his prototype doll that they were going to make for Americans before it never went into production.
1000He chuckles, the momentary laugh that he owns perhaps the best visualization of current US-China relations his only reprieve of a life that is full of hard work and nothing else.
1001It's much more common to pair Applejack with Rarity, the most traditionally feminine of the group. Popular enough that some who make the show and comics constantly play them off like an old married couple.
1002I'm just gonna guess they'd pair her with Fluttershy because something. That's just a guess. Maybe pair her with Twilight for books because something. That too is a guess.
1003Everything and the kitchen sink. But she's not that popular in shipping anymore, everything's about that Rarity/AJ stuff.
1004In other words, Bronies do whatever they damn well want to, correct?
1005They ship literally every character in the show with literally every other character in the show, every other character in every other show, comic book, videogame, or any other imaginable media that exists, or might exist, themselves, other people in real life, autistic OCs they made up, and things too numerous to list.
1006So yes, for example, people ship Rainbow Dash and Sonic.
1007Heavy should only be shipped with Medic, goddammit.
1008And for proof, just type Rainbow Dash and Sonic into Google and shipping images follow right on the main search page before even clicking the images tab.
1009So who exactly do the shippers pair Dashie with? Or do they even try to?
1010In cross-fandom ships though my favorite was when the Warrior Cats community decided to ship the ponies with the cats and paired up Fluttershy - meek, shy character with little self-confidence and a preference for animals over other ponies - with Scourge - violent, brutal sociopath who wears a collar with teeth stuck through it and killed several cats without batting an eye. Like, okay Warrior Cats fandom
1011I would pay real, good American money, and lots of it, to see Null & Pinkie Pie or CatParty & Fluttershy handcuffed together for a day.
1012I can see it now, one of these days, a Brony stumbles across this forum and somehow tries to ship Pinkie Pie with Null or Fluttershy with CatParty.
1013And the resulting mess would be a sight to see. Not a good sight, but a sight.
1014Remembering that, if CatParty gets ponified, the lakes within Hell will freeze over.
1015Even an autistic expression of love deserves more than the stock pony maker. Come on, someone can do better.
1016Ship a pony with a Minuteman III missile, spare us one more highly radioactive source of autism.
1017I'm going to present this with no context other than that it was an official thing that cost money:
1018Considering how off MLP comes across as with it's treatment of other races, glad to see someone at least trying to rectify it. So, how much is this going to be mentioned if I check the drama tag at derpibooru?
1019”They won't see the link between forehead and power and what this means.”
1020I don't think that it's a particularly nuanced or even effective treatment of the issue for several reasons. But people pointing that out sure got the writer mad.
1021I'll have to take your word for it since I'm not buying pony shit (again, not a fan of the show but I have friends who are and are just as bad as my weeb friend).
1022Still, it's always funny to me when bronies get upset about someone using MLP as a mouthpiece or to teach some moral. It's like, are they even aware of what it is they're watching? MLP airs on Treehouse here in Canada, and that's the preschool channel. Pretty sure they're trying to impart some moral to developing minds.
1023It's when someone goes horribly meta with it at the sacrifice of something else. And to be fair, the show doesn't say things like "I hate all boys" or "literally anything before bros." It's not about that morals are there at all, it's the context seemingly.
1024The problem with this "moral" is that it's basically saying "you need to add x people of x race in your stories because reasons". There's nothing "moral" about that, only a narcissist who feels the need for every protagonist to be a spitting image of themselves because they can't possibly identify with anyone else would care about such a thing.
1025People should be allowed to make the characters whatever race or gender they want them to be, they're not being racist or sexist for not having x character as y or z race or gender, nor if they have x character of y or z race or gender portrayed negatively. Even if all characters of x race or y gender in their story are portrayed negatively, it isn't inherently racist or sexist, unless you're trying to preach the message that literally all people of this race or gender, in real life, are inherently good or bad.
1026So yeah, this is just tumblr soapboxing. I had heard of the whole incident with the MLP comic writer Ted Andersson being an SJW misandrist and brony hater, along with his buttbuddy Cutiepony or whatever his name was, so I'm not really surprised if the comic is a tumblr stained piled of crap.
1027I can't explain why it doesn't even work within the context of the franchise without being showered in autistic ratings (deservedly so) but I'll just say this: that pink dragon girl seriously "ships" characters and mentions it to others.
1028Nah, she's pretty much Tumblr in dragon form. She complains about the lack of representation in comics, doesn't listen to those who actually have experience with the issue she's complaining about, jumps to conclusions, and ignores evidence that pokes holes in her theories. She also has pink hair and makes everyone around her uncomfortable by constantly mentioning shipping. But she's not the antagonist.
1029From the page I saw, it looked like it was ponies writing dragons only as villains in comics (which lines up with my interpretation that Equestria has a cult-like mentality with a distrust of outsiders), and a dragon was making a comic to make a stand against such stereotyping. Sounds reasonable to me, hamfisted but reasonable. But I digress. Let me guess, it gets worse as the issue goes on?
1030The funny thing is that dragons are supposed to be a wild species that ponies know nothing about because they're dangerous, an ethnic enclave of them makes no sense. Spike explains to the dragon that yells at him how he's only had bad experiences with them and she doesn't even care.
1031She knows enough about the pony town that was saved by a dragon to "ship" its deceased despot, but can't recognize the dragon that ponies in that town recognize as their savior right in front of her. She ignores it.
1032I like that in Equestria, dragons are a racial minority in need of representation.
1033When will Spike throw of the yolk of his royal oppressor?
1034Why doesn't the dragon girl write her own story where a dragon is the hero?
1035She's too full of straw to pick up a pen. That and she wants a pony to write it.
1036To be fair, complaining about the media they consume while doing nothing to correct the problem is a nerd thing in general.
1037dragon representation in comics to someone who went through decent amount of emotional pain and is beloved among ponies for his actual physical bravery and sacrifice.
1038Considering how Twilight mindraped bats into not eating AJ's apples, I think he would know better.
1039“Do not feel bad about it. We are alive, after all. And being alive is pretty much a constant stream of embarrassment.”
1040Here's a summary of the stuff we were talking about the last two pages:
1041"I'm so not offended by you guys not liking my comic that I'm going to spend ten straight hours arguing with people on Twitter about it! Also I'm going to mention my daughter as an excuse and criticize/mock the franchise that I'm working on!"
1042And as an aside, the comic page that was posted here came off as awkward to me mostly because it felt like the writer wasn't too good at introducing the concept. Like it felt like it was just thrown in without any transitioning or smoothness.
1043Unsurprisingly tropers have a Wild Mass Guessing section for My Little Pony. Now the WMG section has always been an autistic fanwank-fest, but there is one particularly persistent and disturbing theme they project onto this show:
1044I actually toned down on the swearing a bit over there. The "making light of horrific events" was me making a holocaust joke in response to someone saying they were offended by holocaust jokes (following it up with a civil explanation of why people find black humor funny and why it's actually okay) and posting this gif:
1045They didn't seem to have a problem with me arguing in support of black humor, tho. The actual joke itself was just me replacing certain words with nazi related ones that sounded similar (anne frankly (and frankly), I do nazi (I do not see), I think I have a final solution to your problem, etc.).
1046Is it too optimistic to believe that the characters aren't functional humans because they're characters on a children's cartoon and that's easy to grasp? That's like writing an essay about Bugs Bunny's gender dysphoria, or how Mickey Mouse is a castrato...
1047If you don't think Fluttershy is a DFAB lesbian transethnic/gender Muslim Arab, you're probably a shitlord.
1048"...Repeat to yourself 'It's just a TV show. I really should relax!'"
1049tl;dr these spergs project the fuck out of themselves onto a cute little kids show. They analyze it like it's One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest or some shit, so when somebody points out that they are unnaturally emotionally invested into TV for small children they can make excuses and say that it is so deep because of the dumb theories they've made up.
1050They also like to pretend that literally every character has the spergers just like them so that their ponywaifu can be the only one who truly understands them as they sit in their bedroom crying into their body pillow, friendless and alone.
1051The worst part is that a lot of them think that this is what the showrunners had planned all along. Newsflash!—it's just something you say to cope and feel better about yourself. Don't lie to yourself like this.
1052And this is why TVTropes needs to remove these pages. They contribute literally nothing to the site other than to waste space.
1053All WMG does is put in theories that can range from having some sort of plausibility to downright being over-analytical and/or stupid. Removing them would mean nothing of value is lost.
1054That the fandom could do and perhaps those in Tumblr since this is just a TV show. Too bad they can take it rather personally, thinking anything wrong needs to be yelled out.
1055”I've been trolled and don't know what to do on Kiwifarms, please help.”
1056Did I read the Horse-News link correctly in that Tumblr thinks an upcoming episode of MLP is gonna be racist and evil because the villain said "we are all equal"? If they watched the trailer or heard what the writers said, said equality could be more like that of Animal Farm with the some are more equal than others part. Also, the humanized fan-art thing may as well be crazy when there is the insistence that one of the characters must be autistic or lesbian trans-Muslim or whatever sort of crazed thing there is.
1057The Stepford Wives or some other shit involving mandatory conformance.
1058Though I'm not a WWE fan and unfamiliar with it, I'd like to see him lose to the likes of John Cena.
1059I'd put myself in normal range, whichever part of that be appropriate whether it's 25 or even 99. Honestly, it bothers me they didn't separately list the main characters. It would of given more points and liking any of the Mane 6 should deserve more than 0 since you do get people that go to far with that.
1060Have you watched any of the My Little Pony series of your own volition?
1061Do you have any female children below the age of 14? if no→
1062Congratulations! You are an autistic fat fuck. You would probably wear a fedora and a longcoat covered in pony buttons to work if you did work, which you don't. You live in your parents' basement and have never held hands with a girl, which makes you frustrated, and you use ponies as a substitute for human companionship. You never speak to people outside of the cool, sterile womb that is the internet. It is likely that you have a subconscious desire for sexual company with horses.
1063The purple pony wearing wings now fills you with white-hot rage. You like to think that in their heart of hearts the people at Hasbro created this televisual work for only you and people like you; this is because without pastel ponies to fill the gaping hole in your life that would in other people be occupied by friends, work, or romance, you would be all alone, bewildered by the world around you. When you die nobody will remember you. You know this. Whenever you say you are "proud to be a brony," it is really a cry for help, but you don't want to admit it.
1064Sometimes on hot summer nights you lie in your bed and wonder if your life is still salvageable, if somehow things could have turned out differently, if all the people you have alienated would come back if you only return to the real world. You immediately reject the very thought and bury it in your mind. You have devoted months, years of your life to ponies. Ponies are all you are. Without ponies, you are nothing. There is no going back now.
1065i think super collie is a pretty cool guy. eh spergs about oldfag furry and doesn't afraid of anything
1066You aren't cool, you're normal. Still, the font thing shouldn't detract because you are a pretty cool guy sperging about furry and isn't afraid of anything.
1067You've been given the mark of the beast. That is unfair to others that don't like the show or even the fandom.
1068If it wasn't for the Diagnosed with Autism: I'd only have between 0 and 50 (MAX), going by this list, for even admitting to liking only two characters on this show who aren't even all that memorable in comparison to the show's true focus (I know I don't need to say it... And I won't, either.)... Then again, I haven't watched the show in awhile - and am quite thankful I've pulled myself out by finding better stuff to watch in general than THIS. GOD. DAMN. PONY. SHOW.
1069EDIT - I went too far with that last sentence (that I have erased, BTW), TBH.
1070Anonymous which can mean this is partially a joke that does have a certain amount of reality to it. The diagnosed with autism thing can be a bit of a joke, especially since you have autistic individuals that don't like the show. One thing I forgot to mention earlier: another thing this chart is missing is clopping. That can be worth say 100 points if not more.
1071I'm just gonna point out that this was a chart made by Anonymous which can mean this is partially a joke that does have a certain amount of reality to it. The diagnosed with autism thing can be a bit of a joke, especially since you have autistic individuals that don't like the show. One thing I forgot to mention earlier: another thing this chart is missing is clopping. That can be worth say 100 points if not more.
1072It's well known that most nor/mlp/ersons clop, so that's probably why they didn't include it.
1073Considering that /mlp/ is 4chan and /Pone/ is 8chan, would there be any sort of rivalry or bad blood between them?
1074So there are wars being fought between these forum-dwellers now?! Oh, that's rich - and needs to be documented badly here.
1075Sounds like how I feel about 98% of Reality TV, Anime, and Fanfiction in general. Nothing to raise a piss about.
1076To put it in a context, lets take a well-known brony fic like Past Sins. You can expect EQD to gush over them. /MLP/ on the other hand doesn't gush over them but could rather tear them apart.
1077EqD gushed buckets over Fallout Equestria too, which was basically a doorstopper 5edgy10u fanfic about ponies getting into FIGHTS with BLOOD and SWEARING and HAVING SECKS that bronies treat as supreme literature that deserves inclusion into the canon of great English-language novels. I think they called it "legendary" or some shit like that.
1078When asked about it, bronies will usually mention it's longer than War and Peace. Frankly if you're investing that much time and effort into a fanfic based on a children's TV series, that ceases to be impressive and instead pathetic and sad.
1079Where do you fit? I got way too many points to count.
1080(on another note, I hope that it is just a stick up there *shudders*)
1081Yeah, the only supreme literature a fic like that could have is just being another long fan-fic. Just because it's longer than War and Peace doesn't really mean it has better quality.
1082I don't know, I encourage creativity. I haven't read FO:E, but I like how it actually tries to be somewhat creative from what I've heard, even though it may be an edgefest.
1083120 (Borderline Autist) minus the autism score... welp
1084The problem is this concept isn't really new at all: It's just taking something bright and cheery and literally giving it the grunge treatment. That in itself is not a new thing; it's been done for decades.
1085I have to ask, what's the reputation of Horse News? They have the balance of decent articles, passable articles, and clickbait that's typical of actual news sites, and they can at least make fun of themselves, but the lot of them are cloppers, and I'm kind of a judgmental bitch when it comes to that sort of thing.
1086The less seriously a brony takes his interest in pony, the more seriously I can take them. Jack off to animal porn then you still have my disdain.
1087Horse News may as well have the reputation of /MLP/ since they are "fueled by /MLP/". I do remember seeing a cringe article they did on a comic that was basically on clopping (said comic being your typical MSPaint r34 drawing that has exaggerated body proportions in some areas). In regards to the clopper thing, one would wonder: As much as they jack it to pastel horses, do they mock themselves for that?
1088Unrelated: I like Horse News, but I also like EQD. I think the former is better for journalism and chronicling the cringeworthy acts of bronies, but I also think that EQD is good for finding interesting music and art (some of the time)
1089I can kind of understand their frustration a few years ago, when you really couldn't go anywhere on the internet without seeing a pony avatar or gif or LOVE AND TOLERANCE, but bronies are definitely less numerous (or at least a lot less outspoken) than they used to be. It's possible that once the new season starts they will all start popping up again and chirping like smelly, neckbearded locusts, but I think part of it is that the fad really is fading out.
1090The ones who genuinely get angry at them, however, are people I wouldn't consider all right in the head. It's one thing to laugh at them or sigh and another to fume with rage. Why get mad about the internet? There is enough to be frustrated about in the real world anyway.
1091I'd like to know what is your opinion of anti-bronies. The ones that go out of the way to make steam groups about how much they hate bronies, or even say how much they want to kill them. Would you consider these people spergy, or fairly normal.
1092I've kind of kept a list of things to never discuss outside a specific place with specific rules: religion, politics, gender politics, and My Little Pony. God help you if two or more of those things mix.
1093Pound Puppies/Adventure Time/Littlest Pet Shop, I'm not a sperg, promise!" Troll-shielding at its finest.
1094Oh, yes. You gotta love the people who froth at the mouth about ponies while at the same time perseverating over some other kids show and insisting that they're better than the bronies because "at least it's Pound Puppies/Adventure Time/Littlest Pet Shop, I'm not a sperg, promise!" Troll-shielding at its finest.
1095I honestly think a lot of the anti-brony stuff on Tumblr, and how it's practically a meme there, is because Tumblr didn't get to it first. I've noticed that Tumblr has been latching onto every single children's cartoon to come out really strongly. I think after almost five years they're still really mad/jealous that pony wasn't "their" thing to "discover" and control. So now they jump on absolutely everything in case it becomes the next big thing. It's not like they treat it differently from 4chan would though, they just act like they would.
1096All the times that they say "let's not let people like bronies ruin THIS show!" and then they end up being the ones to pervert/"ruin" it but in their own ways. What, there was a new Disney channel cartoon that was full of Tumblr bait and they made headcanons and borderline incest fics incredibly quickly? They're so different from 4chan, guys.
1097All of the above is why I've dropped out of interacting with anyone either for or against the fandom. It's a show I watch among many other kinds of animation. Period.
1098(*: by this I mean discover there's more to life than tugging it to little girls' cartoons)
1099Agreed, and the word "fan" derives from "fanatic" for a reason.
1100I'm amused that the "IT'S EVERYWHERE" complaint never seemed to apply to smug anime girls/Adventure Time/whatever other cartoon or animation designed for children/spergs. As far as I'm concerned when people derail a comment section because of a pony avatar or something, it's basically a meme. Most everyone is only pretending to be offended. But you know what they say about idiots and company.
1101Bronies on the other hand seemed to either be too stupid to take the hint or decided that the best way to deal with being told to fuck off is to spam the shit out of the board or site with pony memes. Because thinking that if they show others they won't back down, people will have to just accept them. After all, nothing changes a person's mind like having to wade through post after post about which technicolor horse is the best waifu, how because of the show some neckbeard learned about friendship, or why everybody's father is so damn disappointed with them and won't let them be around their younger siblings any more unsupervised.
1102Maybe if they dedicate all their time to yelling at bronies, I might see how that would enter sperg-territory. But bronies label anyone who calls them out for the mentally stunted deviants that they are "anti-brony" like it's some sort of civil rights issue.
1103Pointing out a group of people are spergy, isn't spergy. To not be anti-brony, is to be anti-common decency.
1104Exactly, I could care less about sperging over cartoons like that myself. So I don't see why these people heavily hate MLP and highly praise those shows that are almost on the same level in regards with their fanbases.
1105Anti bronies are normal people. Bronies are garbage
1106Fandoms in tota, are really starting to scare me. Look at the SuperWhoLock fans. They go deeper down the rabbit hole than the Bronies.
1107Isn't it possible just to be a casual fan of something anymore?
1108Casual fans I can live with. Obsessed fans are something I avoid, regardless of the obsession.
1109None of the casual fans of MLP are going to call themselves bronies. These days only the absolute least self-aware, most maladjusted people will call themselves that because of what the general population thinks about bronies, so even the people who are pretty autistic with a modicum of common sense will identify as something else.
1110I would go as far as to say that casual fans don't have that much in common with bronies. It's similar to the dichotomy between people who simply like or draw funny animals and furries. Bronies not only actively participate in the fandom, but they are more focused on that and the works fans make than the actual show. I have seen a lot of bronies who admit that they aren't even really into the show so much as they are interested in what other bronies do.
1111"Fans of the fandom" have always confused me. People who call themselves "horsefuckers" tend not to like them because really, why would you be a fan of a fandom rather than the show itself? There's nothing really to enjoy.
1112Honestly those complaints seem like something that happened years ago. But again, now it happens with every spergy fandom. FN@F is the most recent one to spam YouTube comments and their jumpscare shit. The thing is that biting their bait just makes them do it more. The truth is that if people stopped giving them attention they would stop and just keep their stuff in appropriate areas.
1113But again, this behavior isn't exclusive to bronies anymore at all. Basically any popular property gets it now and no one knows to no give the autist attention apparently, so it keeps happening. Or worse, they pretend to be outraged which brings in the spergy anti-spergs and it becomes a mess.
1114Coldgrip You! Not you, the guy behind you. You're next.
1115”I won't respond to questions about KiwiFarms. KF is a terrorist website.”
1116I think I can see what to enjoy: laughing at the spergery for one. If not, there could be those that are fans of whatever those in the fandom produce. It's all just a guess I'm making though.
1117Fallout: Equestria, My Little Dashie, and pony dubstep as examples. You can see how this can lead to friction with normal people.
1118It doesn't work with the group that takes "horsefucker" as a self-descriptor, though. But they can laugh at themselves. I remember that the SJWiki kept trying to use it as an insult and they got upset that they didn't take it as one.
1119FN@F will eventually die out though. MLP is still going on though and Hasbro is going to tard cum it for all it's worth. The bronies will continue to sperg because their favorite equine did or didn't get magical wings or some shit.
1120Not really. There's nothing wrong with pointing out what a bunch of degenerate horse fuckers they are and mocking them for it.
1121Generally fans of the fandom are enjoying what the fans are producing. Sometimes they're riding along with the fad or whatever. There are seriously some bronies who think their fandom is a fountain of creativity (many will say it's the most creative fandom the internet has ever seen), citing Fallout: Equestria, My Little Dashie, and pony dubstep as examples. You can see how this can lead to friction with normal people.
1122One anti complains about pony art that had R34, turns out, that one person made art of an underaged Naruto getting violated by one of his friends.
1123My favorite anti was one that talked about how gross bronies were but actually loved pony rape porn. It was a while ago, but he actually tried to justify it. Pretty hilarious.
1124Complains about bronies yet jacks it to pony rape. That may as well be good example of a bad anti-.
1125This reminds me of how TV Tropes has a 2,000-word WMG dedicated to guessing exactly how old the characters are, and how old they are in relation to each other.
1126I thought the one about how Rainbow Dash was actually a trans woman was pretty bad, or the one that said she was a trans man, or the one that said each race of pony represented a different socioeconomic class, or the really long one that said that Twilight Sparkle had Asperger syndrome, but this one is worse somehow. They actually made formulas for this shit. Somebody somewhere spent hours of their life thinking about this.
1127Actually, the assburgers one was probably worse. I don't know. It's definitely a toss-up.
1128If it's not clear enough to you already what we're dealing with, I was bored so I put all the WMGs into a word counter. I got through "Meta", "Setting", and "Main Characters" before the word counter started to crash because there were too many words.
1129I might be generous and shave off a couple thousand words because of indexes, so that leaves 270,000 words or thereabouts. The average full-length novel has around 65,000 words, which means that if this were a novel it would be in the top 2 percentile for length.
1130You can see how this stacks up against a lot of familiar literature:
1131That's right, everybody. You know James Joyce? The guy who's often considered to be the best writer of the 20th century? His magnum opus just got outwritten by a bunch of autists writing about pastel ponies. It's kind of incredible that you can churn out that much crap and still have it be so meaningless.
1132And I wasn't even halfway through that thing—I would guess that there are well over 500,000 words in total. Half a million words. About pastel candy-colored horses.
1133Flowers For Sonichu 2nd Team all-confefence in Kick the Autistic True & Honest Fan Retired Staff
1134Bronies are grown ass men who jack off to sexualized images of cartoon ponies Anti-bronies are people who think that is gross.
1135The sheer amount of effort these fans put into this trivial nonsense is astounding. This has to be one of the most obsessive fandoms I've ever seen.
1136entirely too much free time over at EQD had actually worked out the height of an "average" apple- from a large (no pun intended) core sample group- and then proceeded to work out the precise heights & measurements of damn near everything in the show, with that as a constant.
1137Also- I'm a physics 'sperg myself- but this is just two of the many, many, many arguments from the choir pedantic on this subject:
1138Shit like this makes my head hurt. And not from the math, but from the stupid. It's just a fucking cartoon show, people. RELAX.
1139I'll try to find it, but someone with entirely too much free time over at EQD had actually worked out the height of an "average" apple- from a large (no pun intended) core sample group- and then proceeded to work out the precise heights & measurements of damn near everything in the show, with that as a constant.
1140Nice to see Faust keeping a sense of humor over this, lol.
1141Well, she no doubt had to of had encounters with fans of the show, including spergs.
1142Goddamn, this is sperging on another level with the equation shit. I love Lauren's reaction to it all and joking about it at least.
1143I guess she could either go insane from the Sonic levels of insanity she unleashed or laugh at the absurdity of it all.
1144My wife has often said with the way MLP took off like it did, It's no coincidence Lauren's last name is Faust.
1145All this Steven Universe/Brony drama is really making me want to check out the show...Steven Universe, not MLP again.
1146Edit: How Steven Universe fans, some of which are ex-bronies, are upset that Equestria Daily is creating a Steven Universe site. They have problems about some of the things that EQD has done despite calling itself a "kid-friendly" site, like gush over Fallout: Equestria and moan over the loss of Princess Molestia.
1147The fact Steven universe has fans in the first place is a miracle in itself. Ever since sponge bob came about it seems every protagonist has to be somewhere on the high end of the exceptional individual scale.
1148Steven Universe has the good fortune to have a little kid protagonist that acts like a little kid instead of an obnoxious dumbass.
1149These little fandom wars are so stupid. Just stop fighting and enjoy the shows.
1150Yeah, that is one thing S.U. has with its main character in that he is just a kid who acts as that, a kid. These fandom wars are stupid but at least they can bring some laughs when the fans get too huffed up on these shows and try to tout which is superior to the point that they get into petty fights over shows whose main target demographics are suppose to be children and not young adults.
1151Yesterday, I was talking with some friends about Bronys. Not even joking, a guy started yelling at me for disrespecting his show. I ran like Hell. He yelled something again while I was running, but I didn't hear it. I'm guessing it was something along the lines of...
1152Holy shit I totally forgot about this thread. I made a new one. Oh well that's your brain on ADHD.
1153But I make up for it...with a song by good ol' manly Dustykatt. The manliest brony ever.
1154@Surtur (don't know if it's accurate but I may as well say it): That mustache is not as manly as Surtur's beard.
1155Welp, Steven Universe site has been canned due to it's fans voicing their complaints. Bronies are acting in the expected way.
1156Assuming those anons will be able to organize since /baphomet was planning a raid on halfchan something about making it a virus trap.. Or at least they were, not sure what the status is on that.
1157We watch and laugh as the two groups try to come out as who is superior.
1158The louder the tumblr Steven universe fans scream the more I want to see bronies invade their "safe space".
1159I for one am looking forward to this dumb fandom war.
1160”listen, null. trolling and calling someone a wrong pronoun are different things.”
1161Yeah me too. I was thinking about making a SU pony blog on tumblr and draw bad and "triggering"fanart. But I think it's better just to watch the upcoming war.
1162(even if it's a troll attempt - it's fucking funny because SU fans are offended)
1163(even if it's a troll attempt - it's fucking funny because SU fans got angry)
1164then again, Steven Universe isn't just for female watchers but also males, right?
1165I just love what the writer said, saying the show is for all and not separate yourself from everyone else. Gotta like how the person he replied to got huffed up on what could be nothing more than just a way of rustling jimmies of S.U. fans.
1166This also means that tumblr special snowflake comunities shouldn't claim SU for themselves - what they actually did.
1167Don't mean to double-post but to break the Steven Universe-MLP:FiM drama:
1168Bronies aren't just male fans. They are a nasty kind of male fans (not all but too many).
1169Wow correct german. But it's not Kleinpferd (at least not in everyday language) lol. It's Pony.
1170Just gonna say from what I remember in the other brony thread that was posted by @Surtur (don't know if it's accurate but I may as well say it): That mustache is not as manly as Surtur's beard.
1171Well, it can be expected by bronies that are fans of Steven Universe and bronies who don't like the Tumblrites. Either way, nothing will prevent the fansite being made by someone else. Either way, let the nerd fight commence. Some of us like to see people fight over kiddie shows.
1172"Diese Darbietungsreihe gehört den Frauen + trans + nichtbinären Gemeinden. Wir werden euch bis auf den Grund des Meeres ziehen, um sie zu verteidigen." Blackhart shouted, hand outstretched. "Sie. Ist. UNSER.
1173Und im Übrigen. Wir nehmen Mein kleines Kleinpferd wieder zurück."
1174Wow correct german. But it's not Kleinpferd lol. It's Pony.
1175Anyway: LMAO! I really dislike bronies but this was really funny and shows how fucked up and militant tumblr special snowflakes are.
1176Also I just realized that ss is a short term for special snowflakes. How ironic.
1177The tumblr ss declared war on the cartoon horse fuckers.
1178Now I have an excuse to hate another show around here - thanks, fantards.
1179You know what they say about a fool and is money and one is born every day.
1180edit: When I was a kid my father did the responsible thing and gave me the stranger danger talk in regards to you never know who you are talking to online. He joked about how a user with the name "Pretty pink pony" could be a 30 year old man as opposed to a little girl. Now it is very likely the case that "Pretty pink pony" is a guy.
1181(while ignoring that special snowflake SU fans are also fucked up)
1182”No Kiwi links, even in archive form, are allowed here ever.”
1183I stopped associating with bronies 2 years ago and really stopped paying attention to them/MLP soon after. Now I come back and their declaring "war" on other cartoons. I always thought hardcore bronies treated MLP like a religion but I didn't think they'd start a fucking holy war and basically declare jihad on Stephen Universe of all fucking things.
1184Jesus, I mean at least with furries their "wars" were more or less civil wars (except maybe shit like SA, ED and other trolls but that's just general sperging in my opinion). I mean are fandoms going to start attacking each other now like the world's most exceptional version of Risk?
1185aaaand thus the first troll blog about SU and MLP was created. (No it wasn't me)
1186Four bucks is nothing. I'll just leave this here....
1187On that note, I've seen custom (hand made) ponies as large as the top one that sell for well over $1,000.
1188So yeah, $3.99 is really nothing to some of these bronies.
1189"On that note, I've seen custom (hand made) ponies as large as the top one that sell for well over $1,000. "- Pancake.
1190How many people are ordering "special" life-size ponies with a hole in the back? Sorry just had to say it.
1191Trigger warning: offended cartoon horse fucker and possibly autism
1192Here is a short documentary. I think it's kinda disturbing to watch these guys.
1193Trigger warning: autism, neckbeards, weird behavior
1194One of the annotations was "It looks like every brony ever came from Chris-Chan's semen".
1195There are 2 things which never fail to make me facepalm pretty hard when it comes to bronies.
11961. I've seen many bronies now claim that only a minority is into clopping, that clopping is this tiny subset of the fandom. That's one thing that they outright delude themselves with. You'd have an easier time convincing me that your shit doesn't stink, than convince me you don't fap to Twilight Sparkle every once in a while (or every day, who knows). I'll wager that the vast majority of bronies get off to the ponies, but would rather crawl down a black hole, than admit it. Like why do people think the Transformers fandom is dominated by fangirling women? Giant robots fucking, that's why. MLP is no different.
11972. I have also noticed many bronies argue that one of the reasons why they watch it, is because it teaches them valuable and surprisingly deep life lessons. Interesting, I thought, let's sit down and watch some of it and see what they mean, so I did just that. I watched 4 episodes in total to get a feeling of what the fuss was about. I found that this argument becomes pretty autistic, when these "life lessons" are little stories of morality, mostly about friendship, not surprisingly, aimed at little kids and okay, this should not surprise me, of course it's aimed at kids and I see the show as being great to help teach kids what's nice and what's not. When bronies say the lessons are deeper than you'd think I can honestly just shake my head.
1198When Twilight Sparkle has two tickets to an event she was invited to, but five eager friends, then what does she do? She gets more tickets, of course, so all of her friends can go. A nice message to send to little girls yes, not sure though what male adults find deep and meaningful about that. When the heck does real life work like that anyway?
1199So yeah what did I learn from that. Apparently that bronies believe and feel themselves bettered by watching these cute little moral stories, which to me is just... like what? I mean great for them, just don't claim it's moral stories which adults should and could learn from as well. Seriously. Life, have you lived it? As an adult you should already have been taught these things. When a brony claims they have learned so much from the show I can only facepalm and be worried. What kind of life have they lived when a little girl show about ponies teach them "valuable lessons"? One can only cringe and wonder.
1200I remember this. All that rage over a coloring book meant for children by a manchild.
1201like Twilight's magic. He was in some episodes like Winter Wrap Up—you could say in a very childish way he 'liked her magic', but really he represented Twilight's inner demons and her insecurity that she doesn't have any skills other than her magic."
1202This is still funny to me no matter how many times I watch it.
1203I'm seriously waiting for someone to make a real documentary on these fuckers. One that shows them just what failures they are, why they are bullied, and why they deserve it most, if not all of the time (and as much as I hate bullying in anything - this is justified for me, now.).
1204The vid was shown when we Kiwi's had a video watching sort of online gathering a week or two back. Some of us thought this guy looked like Chris. Really though, it's kinda disappointing if you wanted him to dislike the cupcake with hotsauce via not tasting good and being too much for his mouth with the spiciness. Really though, it would make one wonder how hotsauce and cupcakes can taste good. Even then, he looks like a long lost brother of Chris.
1205I never thought I would think this but I'm starting to have a lot more respect for parent groups. As whiny and censor happy as these people are, at least they acknowledge these shows are for children. If you are over the age of 18 you should be giving less of a shit about a show for children unless this is your profession (Angry youtube "reviewer" does not count) or if you are a parent.
1206On second thought, the more I think about this it might be another example of the horse-show theory in action. On one extreme we have people screaming about, "THINK OF THE CHILDREN, WE NEED TO CENSOR!!" and then on the other extreme we have full grown adults trying to take over a show that is supposed to be for children. Pressuring the show writers to aim for them as opposed to children who are the original demographic.
1207I have a more detailed response that I'm going to comment out
1208The parent groups have a good point in that there should be some sensitivity taken when writing a show for children. Gore, cussing, and sex really should not be the focus of a show for children and parents have a reasonable expectation that they can let their children watch a tv show without them being exposed too much to the adult world. Granted parents do need to take some responsibility for what their children watch, but it is reasonable to expect porn and gore to not be in a show for children. However, parents need to take responsibility for monitoring what their children see, but also need to respect when to let go. Children need to be taught that life is not always sunshine and rainbows and they need to learn to cope when shit happens in life.
1209.SpoilerTarget">Spoiler: On adults enjoying children's shows On the flip side of the coin, cartoons do not have to for children alone and there is too much of bias against cartoons. Humans enjoy a good story regardless of age and shows that can transcend their original demographic have touched a human element. "You're dead if you aim only for kids. Adults are only kids grown up, anyway," ~ Walt Disney. Just because a show is for children is not excuse for presenting tash, children are smarter then adults give them credit for. People enjoy escapism regardless of age and a little bit of escapism is healthy. However, part of being an adult is taking responsibility for your actions and letting go. You need to respect that there are shows that were not meant for your age group and you need accept that. Living in a world of fantasy is not only unhealthy, but you are doing a disservice to yourself and the community around you through hindering your own potential.
1210I thought I was safe from bronies until today. I logged on EQ2, check the guild to see who's on and there 6 low level characters all named after ponies. Apparently someone joined last night or this morning that is a multi-boxer so had all his characters on. I'm so ashamed of being in this guild now.
1211Maybe if we have murdered every autistic person these disgusting creatures wouldn't be roaming our society, forever taking our tax money for their repulsive and petty needs.
1212Hey dude, bronies are autistic as shit, but we don't have to kill them. They're driving themselves into extinction anyway.
1213Do you take pictures of yourself posing with your guns? You seem like the type.
1214That or some sort of A-Log. Only thing I know: he gave many post an autistic rating.
1215Maybe we need a thread on Steven Universe fans if this is what's going on.
1216Twilightly Lavender - Sometimes staying up all night studying and reading can be so stressful. When you get that low groaning urge in the middle of the night you can reach for this lovely lavender scented liquid and release all of that pent up "magic".
1217Rainbow Berry Blue - Lets make a bet. Race me to the top of that mountain. Winner gets one hour to do whatever they want with the opponent and a bottle of Rainbow Berry Blue lube. You know I'll win, but that isn't really a problem for you, is it? Deal?
1218Shyly Butterscotch - Maybe you're a bit of an introvert, dealing with others just isn't how you roll. But that's not a bad thing! Everyone can have fun alone, especially with a bit of excitement from this butterscotch yellow friend in a bottle. And hey, find someone else who is a bit like you, and you could be having fun being alone, together.
1219Bubblegum Party Pink - Are you a party pony? Always keeping everyone's spirits high with your random antics? Bubblegum Party Pink is just the flavor you should use when your party guests want to take the party to the next level.
1220Rarest Vanilla - Center of the ball, so decadent and fashionable, you need something that will all of the partygoers who set their eyes on you. Generosity is an integral part of your inner being, and sharing what you've got is how you make friends. The classic scent and flavor of vanilla is sure to bring some clients back for more.
1221Cowgirl Apple - Whew! What a hard day of work! Sweat is rolling down your hot strained body. Full of tight muscles and flustered frame. As you shower off your day of work you become a a bit more familiar with your gently relaxing body, with help from this rootin' tootin' apple flavored lubricant from Pony Up! Personal Lubricant.
1222I'm seriously considering coughing up $20 just so I can rate your post Horrifying.
1223I'm not surprised... and yet I am still horrified.
1224And bronies wonder why people think they're sick fucks.
1225There are just no words for that. Bronies are known for shocking kind of shit like this but no. This shit speaks for itself.
1226I love capitalism. Only in America would something like this be viable. Goddamn, even mysteriously sticky autist money is money after all.
1227I'm glad somebody stepped up to the plate and made scented lubricant to match the Bad Dragon colored horse vaginas.
1228Before this pony lube, there existed some fan products that are literally creepier or shocking than this.
1229Yeah, as long as there is a sort of market in it, one would make money, be it selling adult items of furries or MLP cheese-cake bodypillows. If people are willing to pay money for it, one might as well make money off the autism of a fandom, even if morals or dignity or whatever is on the line.
1230This is nothing new considering what else was made before this. Still, seeing what the link had, it isn't FDA approved. That can mean trouble, wouldn't it?
1231Considering the latter, that would be more shocking than MLP-themed lubricant (and that was mentioned either on here, the furry thread since the company caters to furries, or on the old brony thread). Than again, the lube itself hasn't been FDA approved so that could end up being more than just a creepy brony fetish thing (it could be a health hazard).
1232Sad thing is I can see a market for this crap. I wonder what the waifu community would think.
1233And now I want to hurt me some ponyfags... Not surprising, IMHO...
1234Careful there, you'd come off as A-Log. Either way, one can at least laugh or cringe at the MLP themed lube.
1235Either way... Capitalism marches on for this sad market of sex toys.
1236It should be obvious: they'd use it to fantasize that they are actually doing it with their favorite pony.
1237I can also see them bitching about how the lube doesn't match their mare's taste and texture, "Excuse me, but Rainbow Dash's mare juice is much runnier with a tangy taste that has a slight hint of fruit punch to it!"
1238Some of the guides genuinely aimed to make pony waifu "discharge".
1239I legitimately enjoyed that because of all the awful puns.
1240These are some other videos that guy made that I found more funny than I should have.
1241I'm not even sure if he's serious. Does anybody know anything about To the Moon? Is it that melodramatic?
1242Yes, for those already addicted to Farmville style games, here's one for those who have to jack off to horses while building cities.
1243MLP diapers for adults. Truly a diaper wearing brony such as Richard Kuta would squee in joy while others such as any kiwi here would shudder in horror.
1244*Edit: looking at the Ebay listing, apparently the seller has customers from other parts of the world, selling not just MLP diapers but also diapers of other kid show/movie characters such as Elsa or Scooby Doo.
1245”Possible ratings manipulation. Harassment website”
1246Also, "I do not have a horse fetish because ponies are technically not horses."
1247Granted. I'll ammend my insult of horsefucker to ponyfucker.
1248I'm sure it is suppose to parody Japanese anime but those at least had the excuse of something like mystical energy covering the body, changing into the uniform but even those wouldn't of been like this, right? Either way, one may as well look at the comments and see what sort of tism is there along with any well deserved comments.
1249This sort of thing tackles these themes (which date back to the 1960s in anime, as an interesting sidenote) in a parodical fashion but in a distasteful way.
1250There is a lot of autism in the comments section already, as expected.
1251"I'm not a manbaby! I play VIDEO GAMES with GUNS AND BLOOD!"
1252horse and that you know a good number of bronies will readily masturbate to this disturbs me quite a bit.
1253Even though this is supposed to be a parody, the fact that its a horse and that you know a good number of bronies will readily masturbate to this disturbs me quite a bit.
1254.SpoilerTarget">Spoiler: Found this rather NSFW pic on ED
1255That apparently was some sort of naked biking event in 2012 and those pictures have been going around for years. I pity those people.
1256... Said no one ever. There ain't nothing to be proud of here.
1257There's a nice idea behind it. But the fact that I know who this is. Yeah, I expect the Bronies to fap to this. Even though Sweetie Bell's got no tits or anything.
1258Hell, considering what other sort of fetish came from Japan, it can make this sort of thing creepier in retrospect. It would be less creepy if the one with the horn used some magic energy to cover the body, that it wouldn't be less creepy, it could also at least reduce the creepy vibe slightly.
1259Considering that forum, got anything noteworthy to share about MLPForums aside from that SuperWhoLock group?
1260They constantly PM'd and threatened to not let me into any "seckret special" Brony event on the forums unless I watched one of the three shows and wrote a review about it. A positive one, of course. I couldn't say the show was overrated and exceptional beyond belief, I pretty much had to type 5 pages of "omg benedict cumberbatch is so hawt omg" in a nutshell. Of course, I didn't do it. And besides, I was there to post. Not RP, not join cons. Even so, what could they do about it? Send hitmen after me if I dared went to Las Pegasus (lol)? These guys are tools and I'm glad I got out of it.
1261Oh, the things I could tell you guys about Bronies.
1262I was on MLPForums from 2012 to early 2014 and that place has become a cesspool beyond belief. At first the forums were pretty basic subject matter like "can guys like feminine material" or "what were your favorite episodes" type deal but it got to the point where members would talk about Socialist/Communist overtones within the show, sperging about how Rainbow Dash represents a gay/bisexual/transgender/SJW figure (rainbow mane = LGBT apparently), dumb RPs that end up with autistic amounts of pony yuri (rather than not make a cliche fan fiction since everybody is all about sex), and there's an obnoxious group of SuperWh0Lock fans that will constantly badger you into joining their group (happened to me dozens of times, don't know if they are still active).
1263I'm honestly a fan of the show. I have some MLP figures and plushies, but that's as far as I can go. I can't see how masturbating to ponies accomplishes anything for me or how it makes me identify with the show. I like the episodes for what they are, not what other hardcore Bronies perceive as social justice or whatever.
1264Man it's crazy seeing how the Brony thing has gone. My introduction to Chris Chan was right around when that show started back in 2010 (I think? I know it was before the Tomgirl pics dropped), and I was trying to figure out what the fuck this MLP thing was and why it was all of a sudden all over the internet, so of course I stumbled upon whatever the incarnation of 4chan's pony board was at the time, and there was a bit of infighting and someone mentioned "At least I'm not as bad as Chris Chan".
1265So I looked him up and found the Cwcki, and THAT trainwreck made me long forget about whatever the fuck this this "Brony" thing was till years later. At the time I was sure it would die off in a year or two and prove itself to be mostly harmless. Oh how naive I was.
1266Bronies are trying to find communism in the children cartoon. What the hell?
1267The song in the episode was explicitly stated to be inspired by a WWII propaganda march and one of the memorable lines was "You can't have a nightmare if you never dream."
1268Really? I guess the show is now appealing to their older male demographic. I don't know what kid would want to watch that. Especially a little girl.
1269Wonder when the tumblrites will start going awol with its message lol. They tend to be in favor for forced equality.
1270I honestly want to see this so badly - and thank you for posting this. Too bad with how much I've bashed this show around here, I definitely don't feel comfortable doing it, as much as I need to see how they would handle something that would definitely fly over a little girl's head like this...
1271Yeah, I just got finished watching it, and it really is saying that marxist ideology (that forced equality is a good thing) is actually a bad thing, because it takes away people's freedom of choice, and what makes them stand out, and that it's okay to have disagreements, you can still be friends with people you don't always agree with, which I'm glad to see. It was actually surprisingly well-written, compared to previous 2-parters, it even did well with pacing, it didn't feel overly-rushed.
1272Anyway, I guess the show isn't tainted by the SJW bullshit in the show's official comics....yet.
1273I don't have links (regretfully), but I remember seeing someone trying to commission a life-sized Princess Celestia fuck doll. Part of his requirements was it be made from actual horse fur. How fucked up do you have to be for your thought processes to be "I love ponies so much I want to kill one and stretch its skin over a frame to have sex with!"
1274And should he be unavailable, you'll have to go to this guy:
1275Where the fuck would you even commission such a thing???
1276I dunno, tho this reminds me of the time I was talking to some brony on the MLP forums a year ago who said he was buying a golden, diamond-encrusted life-sized Celestia statue for over 3k. He said he was paying it off monthly, but still.
1277What's weird is that I can't even find any images of the thing, I would imagine someone (the maker) would put photos up online. I question the existence of this thing, honestly.
1278”together we can put an end to Null's tirany and prevent him from taking control of 8chan the last bastion of freedom of speech”
1279Why, just why? He could have avoided all this by keeping his trap shut and keeping a guilty pleasure a guilty pleasure.
1280Just watched more. Oh, good lord he told his dad about clopping (())__(())"
1281This video just gets worse and worse. That kid is a gravedigger.
1282Then again, I recall OPL telling Barb about his masterbation habits. So, who knows?
1283Thinking back, yeah, that could've been fake. Why would you tell your father you masterbate to ponies?
1284I never understood this need for this generation to "come out" as something. You watch a fucking cartoon and you're outside its target demographic. Congratulations, you've experienced literally zero historical persecution or valid oppression. I had to tell my parents that I was in a committed relationship with another man; we had to go through the tough conversations about not being able to have children, not being able to legally marry, AIDS, etc. This fat neckbeard jerks off to a children's show and he thinks that warrants a "coming out".
1285They're totally breaking down gender expectations! They're very brave little boys for liking a thing little girls!
1286Hey, you can't choose to be a brony. You're born that way.
1287So the brony life chose him? My goodness, looks like some are doomed to become lol-cows then.
1288Some people become Lolcows; others are Lolcows from the day they're born until the day they die. Just ask Chris.
1289I pretty much had to type 5 pages of "omg benedict cumberbatch is so hawt omg" in a nutshell.
1290I think I saw this on another channel and kept seeing comments that this was fake. I'm still horrified after watching this shit though.
1291BTW, I'm one of those people who've been into this shit since the very beginning. As I'm a very avid 4channer, I was already on /co/ when the show started (For Wakfu and Prequel threads) and thus was among the very first group, before /b/ latched upon it five month later and turned everything to what you have now.
1292Despite always hiding my powerlevel, I never really left, so if you have questions about that time, you can ask.
1293For everyone's information, this is made by an anti-brony, Curtsibling, who also provided some legit criticisms to Andrew Dobson.
1294Look who missed the point again. The episode was all about "People can disagree with you and still be friends."
1295I do love when they talk about this stuff and basically admit they don't want equality.

1300Orthodox Chrischanity Mujahideen, come out to plaaay-ayyy!
1301Well, the video is 2012, if he eats the contents of those Happy Meals, then his heart probably has given out now. I mean, look at the struggle he had opening the plastic packages.
1302...one guy was willing to exchange his pony...? There's another man there ordering Happy Meals for the toys?
1303He embarassed himself multiple times but then he made a big video where he was in tears saying he didn't expect his video to be popular and to get death threat over it.
1304Go for it. He seems like an exceptional individual.
1305Don't know if this was worth a new thread since he's only going after pony sites, but some script kiddie named "KekSec International" apparently has launched a one-man war against the entire online brony phenomenon.
1306The reason I considered making a thread for this guy is that, while this twitter history is filled with ISIS-supporting bullshit and the extreme end of anti-SJW content, he's acting like going after pony sites is some big step to "ending degeneracy" or something. Except here's all the sites he's hit with a DDoS so far:
1307- Fimfiction (arguably the center of all pony fanfiction, naturally riled up some more vocal twitter bronies because the site was down for *almost* 24 hours, but that in turn was more because the guy who runs this site is based on London and he used it as an opportunity to port the site over to Cloudflare which ultimately he says will make the site even more accessible.)
1308- The Round Stable (independent pony community, generally from what I know they're actually intolerant of the more spergy bullshit Bronies are known for to the point they don't want to be associated with the term, and while the main focus is a kind of running news outlet with the former Ponygoons forums attached, they seem like decent people who keep their pony stuff to themselves. It's also considerably small in comparison to most other pony forum sites so DDoS attacks on this site really only inconviniences a small amount of people who have their own IRC TeamSpeak server)
1309- Ponycountdown (literally just a website with nothing but a pony themed countdown clock - this attack also only brought the target down for 40 minutes and virtually nobody noticed)
1310- RedLightPonyville (adult RP website - also not brought down for more than an hour as the site appears to be up and running. Also has a very elaborate "18+ only!" entry page so while they aren't hiding the fact it's creepy shit, they at least go out of their way to make sure people don't get anywhere near that crap by accident)
1311So far, the only site that's still down is The Round Stable, which as I mentioned is kind of a special niche community of pony fans who actually are probably the best kind of pony fans (read: as far from being the stereotypical brony as possible) so whatever KekSec's trying to do, all he's done is still inconvenience a site full of people who actually have lives while all his other targets are back up and running like nothing has happened.
1312What this also shows is this KekSec guy is a shit script kiddie - all he's hit are small, independent sites and Fimfic - which is notoriously delicate in how it is coded and thus most susceptible to a direct DDoS for a few hours. Of course, if this guy REALLY was going after bronies, he'd go straight for the juggular: Equestria Daily. The fact he hasn't indicates he's only going for soft targets and not the centerpiece of the online brony community which is hosted on blogspot and so probably is much harder to bring down without pissing off people other than bronies.
1313Sorry to burst the bubble, but he's just a /b/tard doing it for the lulz.
1314He was on mulp pretty much saying he didn't care about bronies and was just fishing for lulz and drama. They're even the one who advised to go for roundstable.
1315Though it does leave a question of why this exists...
1316But this is MLP, the characterizations are very basic no matter how "deep" the bronies claim they are. There is no deep psychological dept to them. Disney is known for handling fairly mature themes, Think Bambi and Simba's dads death not to mention racism in Pocahontas and Princess and the Frog, and sexism in Mulan, and religious fanaticism in Hunchback but well enough for a child to understand. Avatar franchise is also known for mature themes since the beginning which is why it gained an audience ranging from kids to college students, and even parents who were seriously active in the fandom.
1317It is possible for a kid's show to have characters with mental illnesses. Legend of Korra had a very realistic depiction of PSTD, and the creators of frozen have stated that that Elsa has depression and social anxiety. Which is why Elsa probably appeals to so many adults as well as children.
1318But this is MLP, the characterizations are very basic no matter how "deep" the bronies claim they are. There is no deep psychological dept to them.
1319MLP is basic. The characters are developed, but not to the point of amazement, or beyond a regular kid's show. That doesn't make it bad, but Hasbro is a company meant to sell toys before ANYTHING. They are not going to be deep
1320super adult theme into the show that they then pat themselves on the back for "recognizing".
1321It's also so they can relate to it better. A lot of people with mental illness (some legit, some not) like to imagine their favorite characters as having the same. E.g all the horrible "Pearl from Steven Universe is autistic" things floating around on Tumblr. This is the same thing, cept with people and their pone waifus.
1322It's interesting because that whole "Is this thing from a children's show I like SUPER DEEP AND ANGSTY?" is something incredibly common that people do, hence all the "x was in a coma" theories floating around. I feel like a lot of teenagers and young adults, when they watch cartoons, want to insert things in there that are relevant to their age group so they feel better about liking it/can relate to it more, so they make it like the creators secretly slipped in this super adult theme into the show that they then pat themselves on the back for "recognizing".
1323They don't want to accept that they're grasping at depth that doesn't exist, that they're watching a one-dimensional children's show (which there's nothing wrong with that).
1324You know I am going to get a bit off topic, but I want to make a comparison to another girly fandom that has a decent male audience.
1325Sailor Moon has a LOT of male fans to it from the start. They were the ones who lead the male companion to keep Sailor Moon on Toonami back in the day. The thing is they don't brag they are into girly stuff, and don't draw that much porn (I know it exists) and I would argue that the female fans are more pervy on average. Also from what I've seen there are WAY more crazy female Sailor Moon fans than male fans
1326There are some crazy male fans of Sailor Moon who have their own pages, but I have yet to come across one that is brony levels of gross. Not even Chris-Chan was that obsessed with Sailor Moon, but I would argue he only did that in hopes of getting girls.
1327Oh yeah, there's nothing wrong to me about writing AUs and fanfics as I'm a huge fanfiction reader and I enjoy that stuff a lot, It's when people try to do things like insist that their headcanons are fact or push that there's some deeper message that doesn't exist where we run into problems.
1328Also just to emphasize this, that was nine minutes. Nine fucking minutes. That guy apparently has 18 videos dedicated to this too, videos like "HOW OLD ARE THE MANE SIX" and "IS RAINBOW DASH A LESBIAN" and "TWILIGHT SPARKLE DIED" and "WHY SCOOTALOO CAN'T FLY" (allcaps his). I'm awestruck. Next to drawing Sonichu, that's the spergiest possible hobby I can think of.
1329Another one. Amazing how badly people misinterpret "Disagreement doesn't mean friendship is impossible." I know people say that the show only has lessons you should learn by the 4th grade but goddamn. Maybe people haven't learned it somehow.
1330Am I now an evil shitlord monster protecting the 1%?
1331I will also point out the irony in Bronies (Ponies are in there, I assume their hand is somewhere in the cookie jar) griping about shows depicting conformity as a bad thing.
1332Because you know. Bronies fit in so well with mainstream society.
1333Really, there are no pervy subcultures in our fandom just yuri and yaoi which are canon in the show. You could argue it is because Sailor Moon is a more mature show than MLP (And if you don't believe me you haven't seen Sailor Moon S) I have only heard of one Sailor Moon male fan that creeped me out and he was in the 90's fandom.
1334Sailor Moon proves that men can enjoy a girl's show without being creepy perverts. It is amazing the differences.
1335Well.... Maybe you wouldn't give them full subculture status, but... The Internet has led me to believe that Pervs and Sailor Moon go together like Peas and Carrots.
1336But I guess that's more R34, and let's face it, there would be R34 of MLP even without Bronies.
1337Adventure Time is similar, though we had one. I am convinced that the reason they have started hinting that Marceline and Princess Bubblegum are lesbians so hard was to break up the giant ship war as to which centuries old, biologically twenty-something woman should be in a romantic relationship with a twelve year old boy.
1338Still, I don't think I'd classify it as a subculture.
1339not relented but if your clam to fame is drawing fan art of ponies you need to rethink your life but yeah it is kinda shitty to trace shit and try to sell it but what do i know im not a artiest
1340Anyway, if you can make a living off your art, I think that's pretty cool regardless of what you draw. (Unless it's kiddy porn... or you trace stills from a tv show.)
1341That's like, Chris uploading shecameforcwc.jpg to ED levels of stupid.
1342Apparently he was making a living off of his artwork before he was "caught" tracing. I saw "caught" because according to the article he was LIVE STREAMING and one of his watchers noticed he was tracing DURING THE LIVE STREAM. How fucking stupid do you have to be?
1343Fan artists do shit like this a lot. Even the ones who sell their stuff. But it's pretty intensely stupid to do that on a live stream. Working from a reference is one thing and tracing another.
1344In a sense, it barely matters legally, because the characters are copyrighted. But actually tracing just makes it completely blatant infringement, and does a lot to defeat any claim of transformative use (an element of the fair use defense).
1345There was another blog, which was even more pretentious
1346Making a point MLP is Chrisitian? I'm sure crazed Christians would think otherwise because magic and the lack of mention of Jesus. Even then, they know it's just an advert for colorful horse toys.
1347One would ask if she died for all our sins. Really, it is funny seeing how some of these people try to shoehorn these things into a kids show they sperg over.
1348Literally the next scene after this has Twilight Sparkle get serenaded in song by Celestia on some astral plane. And then she turns into perma-god-mode alicorn princess.
1349Popular pony-related artist caught tracing the show.
1350Apparently he's quite infamous for his overly aggressive marketing as well as accusing people of hating the disabled if they try to call him out. He later admitted to it and there are people trying to defend him for it. Some conventions have already pulled him, and artists are coming out of the woodwork to say how shitty he treats other artists and intimidates them by being obnoxious, having massive booths, and being absolutely everywhere.
1351I guess "Traceponies" wouldn't have made as marketable a name.
1352People ought to quit cyberbullying these two and actually beat the shit out of them in real life.
1353Though this is coming from a guy who calls himself D.Angus..
1354His "'Girl' 'Friend'" looks like his mother, or maybe his sister..
1355Those names.. DJ Blaziken and Whiteturtlerainbow. Because when I think of Ponies I think Pokemon and snowflake turtles. Though this is coming from a guy who calls himself D.Angus..
1356His "'Girl' 'Friend'" looks like his mother, or maybe his sister.. Someone needs to tell those two about Camera Angles, and how slouching like that makes them both look 60 pounds heavier.
1357Or at least for the love of God wear a fucking shirt if you're making videos for the public. That dude looks disgusting.
1358Equestria Daily says they won't post his "art" anymore until "further notice":
1359I look forward to his inevitable Encyclopedia Dramatica article.

1368”Where a post about Mighty Wings spawns an 11 page topic about fast food, what Mighty Wings taste like, and Chris' definition of spicy.”
1369The only reason the fandom even came to be was thanks to some anons from /co/ of 4Chan.
1370I never understood how he's making so much off it to begin with, his commissions are grossly overpriced for the quality he puts out. He charges 70-over 100 for half-assed traced, garbage. He doesn't understand all the fundamentals or anatomy, he seems to just be copying whatever the show does, and yet he's created a profitable business out of this wank.
1371Here, take a look at this, these are his fucking prices (also not how he self-felates himself with the praise he supposedly got for some of them):
1372I believe in meritocracy, but this guy has no fucking merit.
1373Sortof. Hell back then we didn't want it to become a fandom.
1374We had quickly a one thread rule that was SELF IMPOSED by us to limit the discussion in a single thread.
1375This had the double purpose of keeping all the fan content in a single spot, and limit exposure, since we knew the rest of the board was just tolerating us and didn't want any shitposters on the thread.
1376We were also against crossboard raiding, again because we knew it'd only just bring people to the thread to shitpost at us which would impede the fan content.
1377Of course though, once a handful of /b/tards decided to do a big trolling scheme on /b/ using pony content, nothing could be stopped.
1378-It was better than expected for a little girl show, especially considering the previous generations.
1379-Back then, the universe was smally defined, but had lots of references to fantasy and mythical creatures, leaving our inner /tg/ to go nuts with it.
1380-And most importantly: It's the closest there ever was to a Western Moe. Even if it wasn't their goal.
1381There was never anything about "challenge society" or shit like that.
1382EDIT - Took it to the Wikipediamobile to see what it had to say. Read the line "She compared them to bohemians and beatnicks after WWII and hippies after the Viet Nam war."
1383Okay. That's enough internet for today. Goodbye everyone.
1384to pay for things, all you need is exposure and the ponies flock to you like no tomorrow. Drawponies is in demand because he's got a good roster, he's rolling in dough for shit art because people will pay for it.
1385To the thread in general - Is Bronyism dying down? I haven't seen/heard about it much lately.
1386Seriously? This guy is charging over 20 dollars for his art? I like to draw and hope to one day do commissions, but a think its should be a while known fact that you charge your commissions base on time and skills. If it takes you a long time to do a drawing and its mediocre, then you don't charge much. Its why a lot of great artists can charge quite a bit for their artworks, but there are many that don't even charge as much as this guy and their artworks are top notch.
1387Looking at his work its really is mediocre, yet apparently people want to pay this dude a lot of money. I can seriously show a link to an amazing mlp artist and I bet he doesn't charge as much as this Neil guy.
1388Gah, I guess it really is true when they say popularity does not equal good.
1389I too read that article and wondered how no one could have possibly heard of bronies over four years later. The Playboy article was indeed positive.
1390From what I've noticed it is less dying down and more growing up and possibly getting newer blood. That and the Tumblr obsession with "taking it back" died when Steven Universe became a thing. They never wanted the show specifically as much as they did a cartoon they could project social justice issues onto, and it's easier with SU. By the way, that thread had to be locked because of shitposts but reached nearly this thread's size in less than a month...
1391I'd figure I would share an anecdote that would have been pretty funny to see. You know the Sony leaks from last year? Apparently, Hasbro was talking with Sony about the actual pony movie early on in 2014, to get help making it and absolutely no one at Sony "got" it at all. They mentioned bronies themselves once but internally Sony employees were advised just to treat it as a family film regardless or something, "just cool dads."
1392But yeah, the head of Sony, who recently left, absolutely hated the script that Hasbro enthusiastically sent her. Reading the emails, she was actually pretty pissed that they'd send her something that required background knowledge. She basically wanted to throw everything out and just make it like Alvin and the Chipmunks or The Smurfs, a 3D CGI/live action film. Suffice it to say, Hasbro turned that down and is only using Sony for distributing it now...
1393Correct me if I am wrong, but "Love and Tolerate" started as a 4Chan joke, right? It always makes my skin crawl when I see people use the phrase unironically.
1394This was the sort of images we were posting on /co/ ironically to basically say "fuck off".
1395Since we had a single thread about it to post all our pony contents, the less shitposting, the better, so when there was the occasional shitposter/nazispammer we posted pictures like this or other macros like "that's nice" or "don't feed the parasprite" in reply and moved on (We didn't have stuff like "THIS IS BAIT" back then.).
1396However, as I said in another thread, /b/'s goal was never to talk about the show, but to piss off everybody else on /b/, so they acted the most obnoxiously "nice" as possible. Thus when they took on pony trolling, the same pictures were used by them, but with the text matching the image (even though it was still ironic, as in nobody on /b/ really thought like an ultra hippie.)
1397And somehow when it seeped out of /b/ it became the brony motto, probably again by people reading reports of the /b/ threads on websites like KYM and taking it at face value.
1398As for the fandom size, sure, the "breakthrough fandom" hype has slowed down. People are more "used" to them and only tryhards on youtube still really care about pony avatars. Plus there was the longest hiatus ever this year.
1399But if con attendance and audience numbers are to go by, it's still popular. The show is still the most viewed thing on the channel and there's already a season 6 and a movie greenlit, soooo...
1400Please tell me they had one of the bunnies doing the interviews for it.
1401The argument could be made that Twilight Sparkle is in fact the Jesus analogue
1402My Little Pony and Furries are where the commission market is, I got six bucks for doing a pony once even though I only worked on it for like 30 minutes. It wasn't even good. Bronies have money or at least a to pay for things, all you need is exposure and the ponies flock to you like no tomorrow. Drawponies is in demand because he's got a good roster, he's rolling in dough for shit art because people will pay for it.
1403Sigh, so true. As much I know that there are artists out there that care about the fandom, there are many that just do art for the sake of taking peoples' money.
1404And a lot of fandoms are willing to pay a lot of money for commissions no matter how the art looks. Double money if you're a well known artist. But it seems the bronies and furries have more money to splurge.
1405I guess it does annoy me that people like this Neil guy gets a lot of money for these shitty commissions.
1406Well, the new episode just aired, and it was a thinly veiled depiction of the 5 stages of griefs dealing with someone leaving (using a hibernating pet instead because kid show.)
1407I really wonder if Chris will comment on that one.
1408I watched it since last year. I gotta say, im rooted..... With that turtle.
1409Yes, im an hardcore Yawning Squirtle fan, i admit it.
1410Indeed. A "community" implies people with common interests cooperatively pursuing them.
1411A pack of narcissistic sociopaths who have nothing in common but who they hate isn't a "community."
1412Late to the party, but apparently Dashcon died. The previous organisers tried to revive it as emoti-con then folded altogether.
1413tried to bring that shitfest back? After repeatedly begging for debt and having damn near no infrastructure whatsoever and then the outright health liability nightmare that the ball pit turned into (I heard somebody peed in it and then somehow it was tied to some STD breakout, I dunno) I am surprised they even had the balls (ba-dum-tish!) to even consider trying again.
1414Fucking Tumblr. Bronies manage to have over 30 cons accross the world every year (Jesus fuck way too much given the lack of new contents), with only one real failure, and Tumblr can't manage a single one.
1415Dashcon and Unicon were not run by people who had a fucking clue on how difficult it was to run a convention. The latter being so absurdly doomed that people from other cons that were attending literally yanked control away from the convention leaders and quickly set up a massive damage control charity auction drive that ultimately mitigated what could have been hundreds of people trapped in Las Vegas with some serious debt (not helped by the idiots running the convention deciding to literally use fake money vouchers that were never officially reimbursed due to the con going tits up halfway through that weekend). The responsible party; one Sandi Haas (who through some internet sluthing was about as fucking blatant a con artist as you can get - multiple instances of having run other large convention-type things with no evidence of anything having been done other than failed money traps, and maybe one case of insurance fraud involving an exotic pet shop) subsequently vanished a month later and to this day nobody knows what happened to her or the estimated $40K brought into Unicon that was never accounted for in the expenses.
1416Dashcon was much the same...except just run by total idiots and nobody there knew how to run a convention to the point the main venue draw - some group with "Nightvale" in the name - walked out when they learned they weren't getting paid anytime soon.
1417As for these rabid bronies/pegasisters, I had an encounter with this bitch a while back. If you even say one negative thing about her precious MLP, she'll go apeshit onto you and apparently a lot of people are having trouble with her. Most of her videos are crappy MLP art showcases with some HTF and FNAF.
1418Apparently, Playboy Magazine went to a brony convention, making an uplifting article according to Horse-News. I'm not kidding.
1419This morning, a man who on the internet is known as Roosh V was found dead in his apartment, a discharged shotgun beside him on the floor. On his desk there was a laptop with the homepage of Playboy magazine still open. His neighbours remember screams coming from his apartment which sounded like: "Traitors! Traitors!!!", followed by the bang of the shotgun.
1420Next: Playboy Magazine goes to a Steven Universe convention and Dashcon 2015
1421How much pony drama do you guys and gals think there will be this month?
1422Maybe we'll have #Ponygate with a bunch of man children going #notallbronies and #notyourpegasister, and having them saying that it was always about ethics in pony journalism.
1423Last month did bring us a "popular" fan-artist who turned out to be tracing art and claiming it as his own style.
1424Are you talking about DrawPonies? It's because I always remember him whenever I hear the word tracing.
1425Kamen Rider Black RX Winner: Cole Smithey Award for Valued Opinion True & Honest Fan
1426PT is the kind of person to go on 4chan and joke about LGBT stuff, but then the second someone says >she, PT goes absolutely triggered and posts on Twitter/Tumblr about how bad 4chan is. She's complained that neither 4chan or Tumblr accepts her, but then tries to portray herself as always in the right. She has a hateboner for another lolcow and both run hatesites to smear the other. Keep in mind she's in her mid 30's. She also trollshields a shitload now and claims that she "got better" when she got medicated, when in reality she changed very little. She pretty much pays/helps support every convention so they won't ban her, and then just sells shit she didn't make at her booth while staring daggers at people the whole time.
1427Like most lolcows she is absolutely terrible with money and will constantly demand people donate to her preferred LGBT charity. She's one of those people that has no politics but what benefits her, and she would absolutely not help anyone not exactly like her. She insists that she doesn't accuse people of transphobia constantly but does. She also is like, an r/atheism tier athiest, to the point where she had an outburst at people praying for victims of the Boston Marathon.
1428Unfortunately she seems to be the kind of person a lot of people fall for. IIRC she got her ED page deleted, and again tries to trollshield a lot. If you talk about her too much, she will show up. She cannot help herself.

1431Once I got asked to draw a pony with socks on and I was really scared because I know that is a very sexual thing for whatever reason.
1432I did it anyway because I lost control of my life, I just made it a pony trotting that just happens to have socks on because I ain't drawing no "sexy" horses
1433I'm telling you guys, keep talking about her and she's gonna show up. No one wants that.
1434To be honest, I almost wonder if it would be better rather than having a general fandom thread if we just had threads for specific lolcows in the fandom. This thread is getting a bit samey and I've sadly gotten to the point where not much shocks me. It's like we're going over the same things repeatedly and I personally think it would be funnier to have more of a focus. There are just too many other places where autism could go that bronies really aren't the only game in town anymore.
1435Hey, it could work. They even have their own deranged Twitter tranny SJW, Purple Tinker, who puts almost as much work into looking female as Brianna Wu.
1436.SpoilerTarget">Spoiler: TROLLING IS SO WRONG! I AM OPPRESSED!!!!
1437I think a few screens speaks volume about "her" character and hypocrisy...
1438As for "do Christians let LGBT people be", my question is this: does one think all Christians hate LGBT people??? Is Purple Tinker still being a sort of brony lol-cow or is she trying to distance herself from the mess she got herself into?
1439As for trying to distance herself, fuck no. She lives in drama, and switch sides for whatever reason.
1440She often pestered against 4chan (because they keep misgendering her, you see), but then she repeatedly went on /mlp/ during dramas to bitch various other bronies like the bronycon staff. She even befriended some of HN staff the (which is why some of /mlp/ hate them) as she was the one able to pass team scarves to Faust and VAs. Then they did an article about her drama and now its insults again. (Her twitter is still active too).
1441I know prayer and religion can be stupid and/or unnecessary to some individuals but getting pissy at some convention group because they decided to pray (which in some cases is just giving your condolences/regards/thoughts/whatever it may as well be) for those hurt in the Boston Bombing would speak of one's character.
1442The timing was appallingly inappropriate. This is why people hate euphoric atheists. In the small form, a euphoric atheist will do something like throw a shit fit because their family says grace at Thanksgiving. In the large form, they feel compelled to piss on a national tragedy.
1443This is the "apology" for what it is worth, grabbed off KYM.
1444Also clearly missed the point. Actually you shouldn't have fucking said anything if all you had to say was sperging about prayer.
1445PT is absolutely infamous for the level of trollshielding she does, as well as her straight up obsession with money. She also gets mad when people point out that she hides behind being trans. Not only this, but she drags her rivalry with another person out into the open constantly and always tries to raise a personal army to take her down. But really, it's her obsession with the convention that she claims started all by herself that kills her. She's been like this for a long time; posts from like 2007 show that she has a real hard time talking to people because of how she is.
1446A constant thing she does is talk about how every other convention Bronycon (her "baby" despite her mismanaging it) is shit because she isn't with them anymore. Recently she tried "promoting" the one where she had that shitty behavior with one of her "workers" at because it had more people involved in making the show than the one on the East Coast. She basically treats VIPs like assets rather than people.
1447Oh, and she tries all the time to talk about how she's totally cool with 4chan, but only ever goes there to beg/call up a personal army and leaves in a huff the second someone makes a >she/>her/>woman comment.
1448Praying is not just a Christian thing to do, lots of religion has prayer and what prayer is is what you make of it. It can be an expression of goodwill, wishing people the best of luck on people, wishing the universe/god/goddess/Thor will bless the individual with good luck. Unless your prayer involves ill-will, There is nothing malicious about praying for people.
1449IIRC Purple Tranny was caught stealing money from a pony convention and played the transphobia card when he got caught.
1450Wait where'd you here this? I could only find some article from last month on Horse News where it talked about him leaving some chick he hired for a con in San Fran stranded, I think because she stood up to him being a verbally abusive prick, and than Purple fired her and forced her to pay for her own hotel and convention ticket, or something along those lines:
1451That's very new, Bronycon drama is from early 2013 IIRC.
1452Basically she took some money out of the 2012 Con's benefits, and claimed it was for her work in the con, the others organizers didn't like that and booted her out, and she's been raging toward them for "stealing her baby" ever since.
1453I don't know who this person is, all I have to say is....
1454Thank you for confirming what people think about Bronies.
1455May your neckbeard grow long and thick, you glorious bastard.
1456As people have mentioned before, the person is MtF trans.
1457It's been over a year since I started with the Pony Cum Jar Project, and in order to celebrate I'm going to post all the pictures of the Pony Cum Jar Project from start to finish.
1458I will also require a new jar, so the project can continue! Since I no longer can add cum to the current jar because of the boiling accident. So don't worry, I'll post updates ones I got a new jar.
1459The whole shock value of a guy storing his jizz in something mainly has come from a guy who for the last seven years has been saving his and posting it on /b/ with yearly updates for what he calls "Jizzmas." So that's where it comes from. It's about Internet infamy. I'm concerned that none of this makes me even flinch, not even the pony version.
1460lol bronies getting ripped off that guy deserves a medal
1461It's not bronies, it's people who wear shirts that say "Team Dragonfucker" or "Crush the Patriarchy with Cuteness" or something.
1462In other news, shitty person remains shitty and only stops being shitty when called out.
1463I just threw up a little, deviancy in the bronie community knows no boundaries.
1464That said you know you've been on 4chan too long when that shit doesn't fase you a bit.
1465Apparently, Red Light Ponyville is gonna go down due to an admin using a fake ID.
1466Also, Robert Downey Jr. posted a pony image on Facebook.
1467Not sure if troll, or just really proficient at Wiggerbonics. If it was actual Ghetto Ebonics, there'd be spelling errors and no commas.
1468Who, the website or the "rapper?" It deff be fo' da humorz yo.
1469It's not bronies, it's people who wear shirts that say "Team Dragonfucker" or "Crush the Patriarchy with Cuteness" or something that also enjoys drawing "cute" gore/rape:
1470Maybe I'm reaching with that piece but man, it seems like she would be into MLP porn if she's into that.
1471Hardcore anti-bronies and bronies are equally terrible usually.
1472It's very similar to how she draws her MLP ponies too
1473Funnybone Needs her password stapled to her forehead True & Honest Fan
1474Outside of the reason being deviancy, why would this guy continue such a disgusting thing? The jar and pony toy are no doubt bio-hazards at this point.
1475(not that DD isn't hypocritical as fuck, be it with this or tons of other cases.)
1476Not that I have any problem with weed AT ALL. But she's always using "THIS IS A KIDS SHOW DON'T DO ADULT THINGS TO A KIDS SHOW" excuse this seems a little hypocritical.
1477I honestly wouldn't care so much if she weren't such a massive hypocrite with everything she does.
1478I don't think RDJ's realized the Pandora's Box he just opened. And if he does, all I can say is "God have mercy on his soul."
1479It somewhat reminds me of biological experiments done in the 18. century, e.g. people sprayed bull semen all over a pasture to try whether this would cause the grass to directly turn into cheese. Maybe this guy tried to create a pony/human hybrid or something.
1480...how did they get enough bull semen to cover an entire field??
1481Now episode is about a village full of Michael Snyders!
1482It was full of characters who don't do anything unless they're paid, and the town was terrible. The only limited butthurt I can see from it is that some people accused the show of being racist because the two ponies that showed up completely rejected the griffon story of being united with pride and money and insisted that being nice to each other was better. Just ignoring that one of them gave up saving the idol that supposedly would make everything okay because they were in danger I guess.
1483So just watched the new one, we had world building, new species lore, Princess Protagonist not getting to join in, return of a character fans hated but they updated her problems to make her likeable, Crack addict Pony and Up her own ass Pony actually being useful and a ton of on the nose jokes and references.
1484Yep. The community is guaranteed to zero in on that ending and sperg their little hearts out that its 'not right!'
1485So, a good episode, huh? I might... MIGHT just check it out - too bad my hatred keeps me from really doing that, sadly...
1486Eh no shame in that, it takes some getting past the 'girly as balls kids show' thing and then theres looking at the characters and being able to put it out of your mind that there are dudes out there fapping to what you're watching...still it was a pretty decent ep
1487put it out of your mind that there are dudes out there fapping to what you're watching
1488to directly what you're watching, it hurts knowing this sentence can apply to literally anything.
1489It's sad and frustrating for me, honestly. I used to really watch this show through and through & without much shame, either - than I stepped back, found this thread..... And realized I've seen far better cartoons than this horse shit, TBH. Thanks to you guys, now I know better than to give too much praise to horribly overrated nonsense, like this show, for example.
1490Eh I do think Batman the Animated Series made a difference in that it showed superhero content didn't have to be campy 'bam, splat, kaplow' all the time, same as people claim MLP changed the idea that girls shows couldnt have real conflict.
1491Buuuuuuuuut the line lies in people acknowledging that these are just goddamn cartoons to me, people can sperg all they want about a kids show being the best thing ever but if they don't aren't even the slightest self aware about how silly they look doing so then they need to sit in the corner and re-evaluate their lives.
1492And those first two arguments have merit. You just can't take all of this out of context. I think the average person would point more to the increasing seriousness of superhero films in the last 25 years as a better example though. And I don't even draw the lines at cartoons: I think doing this is really silly with any sort of popular culture. At least so early.
1493Oh yeah thats true, there hasn't been enough of a change for Bronies to make a case for MLP making a real difference and for them to act like it already has is pretty ridiculous.
1494And to be honest, MLP is very much a show made by the "old guard" of animation; its staff has been in the business for much longer than that of other cartoons. Despite that it did change some minds within the industry itself. But socially, again, too soon.
1495Just to keep things on topic (in case some earlier post might give some the thought it's veering away from sperging bronies) and because I forgot to post this:
1496I do find it funny when people say that about pony and then turn around and claim that another children's TV show is the most amazing thing to ever happen. Like, even most shows for adults don't actually change things all that much beyond a minor footnote/subculture; any kid's show isn't going to have an impact. I noticed this a lot when Steven Universe became a thing. The same people whining about people treating ponies as the biggest thing ever did the same for that show.
1497bestest most importantest thing evar, you slowly start believing it and you don't even realize it.
1498Fandom's have always had a habit of lacking any kind of self-awareness. I can say from experience when I was a huge ponyfag back in 2011-2012 (which regretfully garnered me the nickname 'horsefucker' in my senior year of highschool but that's getting off-topic) that when everyone around you is calling MLP/Furfaggotry/Steven Universe/whatever the bestest most importantest thing evar, you slowly start believing it and you don't even realize it.
1499Just wanna say I feel your pain on that one, still get people sending me links to Bad Dragon horse...well you can imagine.
1500And I even fell into the trap myself of thinking it was more important and amazing than just being a kids show.....riiight up until pretty pink princess pony showed up, I don't care how much they tried to hide it that just killed any argument that this show isnt a long series of toy adverts.
1501For the record tho I do like pretty pink princess pony. She's freaking adorable. Sue me.
1502The self awareness with bronies though is pretty funny, especially because a lot of it seems to be interfandom drama BS. Like, more than ever it seems that everyone is a part of some "x-faggotry" and is just as spergy with their own thing as the people they don't like. It's weird.
1503Meh, it's been what, like four years? You get a thick skin and are able to laugh at yourself eventually. Only so many jokes exist.
1504Hey, she did defeat a bug sucubus/giant tentacle snake. Any other show would probably be her not being able to find the crumpets or something.
1505Yeah she beat the bug succubus queen bee thing with the help of her bf and the power of wuve or some shit, there was like a shockwave laser and she team rocket'd the fuck out, after that pretty pink waifu appeared in another episode where she had insomnia or something and her boyfriend had horn herpes so princess protagonist's pet bitch had to save the land of acrylic toys from Sauron but not before bf chucked pretty pink insomniac like a fucking javelin.
1506I personally find your summation of these events for our fellow Kiwis pretty hilarious. I don't know why.
1507Oh I agree, I still watch and enjoy because...well I'm pretty damn immature and sometimes I like to turn my brain off while watching colourful horses who shoot lasers and shit. But I don't pretend it's anything special and the fandom blowing it up like its the most amazing thing to ever happen does seem to alienate fans more than bring in new people. Just sit back and enjoy the fucking pastel ponies guys, no need to be bitches because, oh no, someone said the show wasn't better than the Beatles.
1508Derpy used to be my favorite horse and I couldn't stand that muffin shit.
1509Now I'm just being reminded of all that "Save Derpy" shit after the great spergpocalypse of 2012 (I think it was 2012).
1510It doesn't really even matter because she was brought back anyway. Hell, the very next episode is episode 100 and will probably have her in it since it's all about minor characters. I don't know if it will really even do anything, because the people that would like a fan interpretation validated outnumber the ones who hate it (who in my experience are "idea guys," at least the people who have the horse obsessed with muffins actually do a lot of shit to promote that instead of whinging at artists to draw their interpretation) but I don't know. Maybe more SJWs will be upset at the character based on a Coco Chanel pun or something.
1511"Forget about the concerned parents who think their mentally challenged children are being cruelly and needlessly mocked on a show they love, WE WANT exceptional FUCKED UP EYES MUFFIN HORSE!"
1512Hell, the very next episode is episode 100 and will probably have her in it since it's all about minor characters.
1513IIRC someone confirmed not too long ago that most of the "concerned moms" were other boards on 4chan trying to fuck with the (at the time) newly formed pony board.
1514That was then, now people know that it was just /b/ being /b/ or something. It was also years ago. Now Tumblrites are just really mad about the "Nazi" character named after Coco Chanel, and they actually are. People that left after the season three finale generally came back at some point but I assume a lot did leave during that initial wing autism thing and are now in whatever popular fandom is getting the most attention.
1515Now Tumblrites are just really mad about the "Nazi" character named after Coco Chanel, and they actually are.
1516I used to be active on /mlp/ and I remember everyone was pinning it on some random tumblrite.
1517There's a character named Coco Pommel in one of the episodes, a play on Coco Chanel. Ms. Chanel was a fairly outspoken Nazi Sympathizer. Not like "the Nazis are occupying my country so I'm going to swallow my pride and cooperate so I don't get gassed", as in "The Jews are part of a communist conspiracy and are a threat, also I'm Aryan and banging a German officer so I should totally keep my business".
1518”Again, your "kind" is forbidden from monitoring me in any way, on any venue.”
1519You mean the one who drew horse loli and crossdressing and made rape jokes while at the same time hating any sort of sexualization? And the one who did it probably because she had the idea and was mad it was already taken? The one who got one of her male admirers to try to get one of her critics' husband deported and is in jail for 15 years because of it, while she walks off scot-free? That one?
1520It's more than just the Nazi reference, they also hate that she's demure and isn't some sort of "I am womyn, hear me roar" archetype or something I guess. There's a big group of people who hate any character who is appealing in any way to any man, ignoring that she's just supposed to be a character that is nice.
1521Plus the character is specifically designed to be submissive as fuck, her boss is an Alpha bitch who takes advantage of Fashion pony being overly generous and doesn't speak up because shes shy as shit and her boss probably slaps her about, hence when she finally does come forward its actually growth for the character and means something rather than her starting as an "I am woman, fear my ovaries" and there being no personal growth.
1522Not a good person. But most people don't remember that, they remember that she was a fashion designer.
1523Oh wasn't that that Pinkiepony chick who ended up with the entire fandom calling for her death because she thought a fan work about the God pony being a molesting rapist shouldn't be on the interwebs?
1524Nah it was Yamino I think was the chick that got that one of the people who worked on Adventure Time fired. Could be wrong, its been a while.
1525True, but Hugo Boss didn't spy for the Nazis... Chanel did.
1526But for God's sakes, let the fucking pastel horse cartoon do a wordplay joke with a minor character.
1527@Gensdupays mentioned earlier. Really, the character is a reference to a person known more for fashion than Nazism. Still, AnOminous mentioned another fashion designer that also worked for the Nazis. As AnOminous said, fashionistas are known for high social conscience.
1528Bad puns are all the show has going for it, after all.
1529The rest was cringeworthy. And he really could have done several takes in each scene so his delivery wasn't so bad.
1530IIRC someone confirmed not too long ago that most of the "concerned moms" were other boards on 4chan trying to fuck with the (at the time) newly formed pony board. The show simply never had that many viewers, especially early on because of the lack of carriers that had the channel.
1531The tipping point for me is the writer's explanation. She mention she received a dozen letter (so not enough for a raid or "angry moms") and that THEY WERE CALLING HER "ABLEIST". Now, I wasn't on /b/ back then (or ever) but I didn't remember 4chan using the word back then to parody tumblr as SJWism was just booming. In fact, I learned the word myself via Yamino using the word qualifying Derpy.
1532As for Coco Chanel, Tumblr being Tumblr. Nobody remember her for her nazi past and obviously the show maker didn't have that in their mind (as is most people nowadays, I didn't and I'm french.) but who cares!! Nazis!!!
1533Edited in since that video snuck in before I posted: I agree with a few points in that video. Bronies really don't have a leg to stand on to criticize people who play pokemon, I've have friends who were lady manchildren (womenchildren?) who were needlessly attacked for liking the version of show that was on when they were kids, and if someone else dislikes the show they shouldn't push it on other people.
1534I know bronies are a bunch of sperg but at the same time when I see dedicated "anti brony groups" on steam or facebook made by angry 15 years olds that act just as spergy because they see ponies avatar in their Cawaduties, I just facepalm hard.
1535Never understood the hate LPS gets, it's not my cup of tea but it's not exactly bad. I think thats the worst part of the fandom, mlp isn't solid gold but I think it would be considered at least decent by 'non bronies' if every fan wasn't going "ZOMG best show evar everything about it is perfect and if you disagree you're a hater and orbital friendship cannon and LOVE AND TOLERATE!!"
1536Thank you for not thinking completely less of me for liking Littlest Pet Shop more over this show, at least. I've said it before and I'll say it again - loud and proud this time. I'd probably have more respect for this fanbase as a whole if they just stopped with the whole "put this horse show on a high pedestal and spit on everything else that isn't as good/memorable/popular as their show" thing! That's what gets me, and it shouldn't, because it makes me look butt-hurt in the end, but it does get to me, especially when I see it almost everywhere and it's just annoying and pathetic.
1537Eh I can't say I blame ya, I was hesitant to watch the show at first after seeing the army of "THIS IS THE BEST THING EVER!" that followed it. And hell even now Im not exactly 'active' in the fandom cos of it, it feels like saying anything against any aspect of the show is considered heresy. For example my personal fave pony is Rainbow Dash....I cannot tell you how much hate I've gotten for that alone, nevermind the fact that I also like that she's pretty dumb and normally any trouble she gets in is a result of her being a stubborn jackass, say that to a fan and suddenly Im Hitler to these people
1538Now, my dislike of RD aside, you bring up a damn good argument here - Especially at the end there about how most of RD's problems are just her being a stubborn jackass at worst, like this latest ep. for example. All I can say going forward is "to each their own; just don't rub it in thy face."
1539I'll try to practice what it seems like I'm preaching here as well, because I'm confident modt of what I've just said seems like idiotic sperging, TBH.
1540Fair play dude, I've never been one to argue with someone over something as silly as 'you dont like my fave pony'. And tbh your hatred of the show is both mertited and common, I've seen a TON of people go into the fandom with rose tinted glasses only to have them ripped off by the fans actions, its kinda expected that you'd be angry and bitter about being sucked into something you were told was amazing only to find out it sucks.
1541I don't think this show sucks, just horribly overrated. But yeah, those feelings can happen after awhile, unfortunately. Those feelings you've described overall, that is.....
1542Now, my dislike of RD aside, you bring up a damn good argument here - Especially at the end there about how most of RD's problems are just her being a stubborn jackass at worst, like this latest ep.
1543I feel for you lalala. I always liked RD too because of her flaws. And her tough attitude makes her soft moments even more adorable. Unfortunately she's a victim of the setting, as her hotheaded and aggressive attitude must be punished because friendship MUST prevail, leaving her with the short end of the stick. It's a bit sad the writers don't try to be more ambivalent using her but what can you do.
1544But don't take /mlp/ at face value, she's still popular and has her crowd.
1545”Some of the users on Kiwi Farms would make great investigative journalists or opposition researchers if they spent their time productively.”
1546Kinda off topic, but I watched an episode with my friend who wasn't a brony. We both thought it was very good, though not the best. I guess that goes to show that the show is fairly wide reaching in its audience. I'm not the biggest fan, and we both had our moments of cringing, but I'm glad we watched it.
1547Is this the brony thread or is this spend a page or more sperging about Littlest Pet Shop? Get back on topic, people.
1548There's not much to discuss, to be honest. Distinct lack of funny recently coming out.
1549I can tell. It's best to just let the thread sit there until there's anything of interest related to bronies worth talking about. No need to turn this into a thread that has hardly anything to do with the brony clowns. That's why off-topic and multimedia exist.
1550Yeah, you are kind of right there, but the thing is if there wasn't anything to discuss then the MLP sperging should be done elsewhere instead of a thread that is about bronies, not the show. And besides, isn't MLP sperging one of the things strongly discouraged around here?
1551The talk about the actual bronies themselves from what I've seen for the past several pages has been very little and even when there is something about them, it's just really not that interesting content wise. The other times, I just see a lot of off-topic sperging and autism running rampant. I think it's best to say that this thread has run out of material compared to a lot of topics here on the site.
1552It's been said in the SU thread before, but it bears repeating that nobody gives a flying fuck about whether you like the show or you don't, or which fandoms are better. (I would really rather not know, actually. Hide your powerlevel.) If you wanna sperg about MLP, there's a group for that. If you want to talk about Littlest Pet Shop, make a thread for that in Multimedia or whatever.
1553Okay, I sat through the latest episode of this - I've come to a conclusion (and it just frustrated and annoyed me immensely!)... as much hate as it gets everywhere, I still like Littlest Pet Shop (2012) way fucking more. I don't care what anyone says - at least THAT show doesn't have a fanbase that hypes up complete nonsense like this and knows when something about the show sucks. It may not be as good as this, but I don't give a fuck anymore - not when this fucking show is just spinning its wheels now.
1554And I feel like absolute shit for saying Littlest Pet Shop (2012) is a better show, even if just IMHO, knowing all the hate that show gets - almost everywhere. It's like I can't like anything anymore, even if it's not as good/memorable/popular to others.
1555Seriously, the only line I agreed with in this latest episode, to get back on subject - and from my most hated main character, no less... "That was pretty sappy!". Because it was.
1556not what this thread is about. If you are better than lolcows, you shouldn't have to need to prove that.
1557ViolentGiant I'm an alligator, I'm a mama-papa comin' for you.
1558Does anyone see any reason to keep this thread open, or is it just another fandom thread that has run out of steam and needs to be put out of its own misery?
1559Littlest Pet Shop, which isn't even MLP-related. So I don't see any reason to keep the thread open.
1560Of course they're gonna say "no" because they love their ponies and don't want us to make fun of their show
1561Of course they're gonna say "yes" because they love their ponies and don't want us to make fun of their show
1562That is because anyone who is a fan of the show is a disgusting autistic deviant
1563The DJ pony and another female pony are fucking or something. That's what he's into. The DJ pony is his waifu. That's why he likes those glasses. Sorry if that's vague I don't know/care that much about MLP lore/fanfic.
1564i dont know, so far he doesnt show it. all hes done is shitty sonichu porn and his unattainable dreams of china.
1565“Don't Cuss or make a horrible, mislabeling Fuss.”
1566You're just mad chris is a brony and brings shame to your dojo.
1567dude, everyone likes VS, doesnt mean everyone loves her.
1568Not sure if using the word "everyone" is accurate.
1569You realize lots of people despise ponies and are not into them and probably the ones into MLP don't care for her too so yeah. Just say you have a crush with the pony and you're uncomfortable that Chris does too.
1570Stop shitposting about your pony shit. No one fucking cares. Hide your fucking power level.
1571We didn't even last 3 full pages before this devolved into pony sperging and bitchfits. For fucks sake.
1572Oh well, at least Chris has his priorities straight: ponies
1573”Remember, it is Gangster US Supreme Court written High-Holy Law: I'll give it to you to suck! FINISH HIM!”
1574Don't feel the need to jump on this guy, my comment was merely lightly ribbing him over the fact.
1575It's just that this happens every thread that has to do with this subject. I think there's a pretty distinct line about the level of detail and discussion that needs to be covered when it comes up (read: absolute minimum to understand why Chris is sperging, otherwise no one cares) and anything else is shitposting that shouldn't be reacted to at all.
1576But it always has to be the new guys that replies like if whatever said was a personal attack, give bad rating because autism and sperg hard. By now I'm used to it but it doesn't makes it any less uncomfortable.
1577Oh for fuck's sake. The rule about hiding your power level is there for a reason.
1578PROTIP: Most of the "rules" of the site are not there to protect the site. They are there to protect YOU.
1579Duely noted, also apologies for sperging back there, I'll make sure to shut up. And I'll change my avatar to prevent sensory overload to ponies(I kid, I kid).
1580Not to sound a-logish but I think the real question is how autism stacks up against cancer and other terminal illnesses in his mind.
1581Also I'm calling this out now: The pony's name is most probably going to be the new blue arms.
1582We need somebody who's completely fluent in autism to interpret Chris's facebook ramblings.
1583let me just say if Robert Franklin Chandler Jr. had used a condom 33 years ago we wouldn't be having this problem right now
1584I cant be the only one to read that in Trevor's voice right
1585For sheer point of reference, quoting and responding to every single post isn't helping the whole "sperg" image.
1586goddamn it. the maximum powerlevel you should show when it comes to cartoons in threads is "I like it." and nothing else more. If you want to sperg out about ponies, we have a thread about MLP in the Multimedia section of off-topic. Take your fucking autism there fucksticks.
1587No, he'd be a lot more pissed. On a scale of 1 to 10 regarding autistic rage, blue arms are a 20. This is barely a 3 and that's being generous.
1588Hide your Powerlevel. Avoid revealing intimate, personal details about yourself in public boards. These threads are not your personal blog and we are not an asylum.
1589Do not plea for sympathy. Do not make posts about how you are leaving the forums. Just leave. And the common sense rule about "not being a backseat moderator", meaning you don't tell other people they're breaking da law unless you're in a position to do something about it.
1590Of course THE ORIGINAL BRONY adds his thoughts to the matter
1591It never ends with this shit. Almost five years and people are still as spergy as they've ever been when the topic comes up.
1592”Man, if I had an autistic kid I would mock the shit out of them”
1593Anyone have the money to hire a witcher for this thread?
1594cant help that, people will believe what they want, if they think im a sperg then oh well.
1595Try to stay on topic, folks. I know it's hard with bronies sperging about, but you can do it. I believe in you.
1596I in no way believe in you. It's just nice to be pleasantly surprised sometimes
1597On topic: Chris has sexual fantasies about ponies? I did not need this in my lazy Sunday vibes. WHY?!
1598Chris whining about that stupid crossed eyed horse AND bronies coming out of the woodwork for an Internet slap fight?
1599Like how you're a clopper in your Tumblr blog. Do you fuck horses?
1600@DarkISO please sperg more about us on your tumblr at least so it breaks up all the disgusting pony porn
1601Far too many people in this world masturbate to horses.
1602@DarkISO got rid of his pony avatar and I can't see his profile now. Pussy ponyfag.
1603Oh fuck jesus. In before the lock before this being a member halal thread.
1604And also @CatParty king of shit at bronies as always.
1605Good fucking God. Darkiso was lured here by Chris' sheer autism pheromones. Now he's been outed and is being lynched.
1606My Godbear I need brain bleach after visiting his tumblr. This is exceptionally sickfuck even by normal clop standards
1607@DarkISO delete what you want. It's already been archived
1608Your power level is exposed, son. You are worth less than half a Raditz.
1609El Rodrigo GET DOWN SIR, THIS IS THE OPINION POLICE.
1610I see you like that loli squid girl, why i am i not surprised?
1611.SpoilerTarget">Spoiler: We have a message for you
1612Jesus Christ dude, if you legitimately like ponies then you shoulda just kept it to yourself. The reason why bronies are furries 2.0 is because of this shit
1613*Edit: Trying to make us look worse just because of Chris I see.
1614Seriously, if we were obsessed with Chris, many of us would do what the bronies do: keep tabs on every thing Chris did. Besides, Chris is notable lol-cow and a train-wreck that keeps crashing, why else would we have a thread on him?
1615For the record his steam profile pic (which is the same username) was also what I think was pony porn. I say think because, mercifully, Google reverse image search failed me, but that horse was definitely licking... something....
1616Amazing how many people don't read the rules when they sign up about choosing a name.
1617To paraphrase Big Smoke: "All you had to do was hide your goddamn power level, DarkISO!"
1618Its not stalking if you have it out there publicly and easy to see. Maybe next time you don't use the same username for every site?
1619I imagine him currently rage crying and furiously masturbating while sobbing "I'm not a freak! They're the freaks!" Oh, sorry..."clopping", not masturbating.
1620This is why you don't use the same username across different sites.
1621It's ok to discuss Chris' infected taint piercing or but for fuck's sake don't talk about MLP that's just a whole nother shitshow, especially if you're into pony porn. @DarkISO got what he deserved for being a tard.
1622If his Tumblr was private then yeah, he could say we are stalking him but we aren't. It was public. Also gotta like how he took it down after being spotted. Next time, he should use a different name if he doesn't want to be fully known.
1623Twitter, Steam and Reddit accounts remain virgo intacta.
1624”It shouldn't surprise anyone that those forums are full of trolls and a recent study shows that those that engage in trolling and cyberbullying share traits of the Dark Triad.”
1625If we are to pursue DarkISO, I feel that it should be kept in a separate thread.
1626Is there no escape from these degenerate horsefuckers? Could've sworn this thread was about Chris...
1627Lysistrata Your autism is impressive to Michael VII
1628Those were from a year ago. He hasn't emoed out since
1629Can we have a thread on DarkISO so we can stop derailing this one?. It's just an idea though, because this thread is kind of already dead anyway.
1630I was checking upon past FB posts of Chris, and realized that Chris was upset that the pony (Derpy, Muffins, Ditzy, whatever its name is) was going to be ignored in the show after people complained it was making fun of mentally disabled (the irony!) people. So Chris was posting how much he wanted the pony in the show and that the producers should put her back, etc.
1631Now that it is back, I'm guessing that a name change is not that bad in Chris mind since "he won" the battle and the producers got it back up but just with a different name. I'm really wild guessing that's the reason why Chris doesn't chimps out as hard this time.
1632Thread reopened. Everything from this post to now is from a brony sperging in Discussion. I figure this is better and more appropriate than giving him his own thread.
1633Hellblazer Everything has its time and everything dies.
1634This is some pretty garden-variety stuff, rather boring. What makes him different from your average pony sperg?
1635He made this tweet the day before before he created an account on the Kiwi Farms:
1636Most of his other Twitter posts are sperging over this dude named Evan Gragg. I have no idea why DarkISO has such a hard on for this kid.
1637What a delightful fellow. Any idea if this Evan guy lives here, or is he just hoping that a city of black people gets kicked over by tectonics.
1638Not sure if the thread was really worthy of unlocking for just one sperg. It was pretty contained in that one thread that already would have been shitposts even without him in it.
1639"Anyone who is a fan of the show is a disgusting autistic deviant" should just be repeatedly posted whenever someone who can't hide their power level comes up because it still is true. But that's just me, I think from experience general fandom threads tend to be a bad idea.
1640>Pensacola will be cleansed of the Josh vermin Lolcow Farms > Animal Control >
1641As long as this thread doesn't get shit up with sperging again and people really just focus on the loons themselves, I'm more indifferent to whether this thread is open or not. With a topic like this, the risk of the thread devolving into an autism clusterfuck is always there.
1642I only know three people who consider themselves bronies who are sane, well rounded and fairly normal. The rest I've met are Autists, freaks and deviants.
1643"Anyone who is a fan of the show is a disgusting autistic deviant"
1644The only difference is that some people can hide their power level and others cannot.
1645Warning: screencap heavy post incoming, added spoilers to condense everything
1646This guy is fucked... just about every post on his Tumblr is either pony fucking, or him complaining about here. I'm sure there's more but I'm about 23 pages in and don't know how much more I can stand. Did happen to find this gem, though:
1647he probably is into some sick shit even by brony standards if he defends himself this much.
1648Golly he certainly did a great job proving that bronies aren't all raging autists, didn't he?
1649What I find amusing is how much he's complaining about this site when he's also a member of it. I mean, if you hate a site you simply leave but nope, they always come back for more:
1650You'd think people would learn by now. I'm glad they don't though, this shit is hilarious.
1651THAT. BASTARD. How dare he use me as an accessory to cover his sorry, lazy, pathetic, pedophile ass!
1652I'm sorry - but the only advice I can give this guy now going forward is that he needs help... Seriously.
1653This thread is a fucking honeypot of autism. No one fucking cares about your shit pony fetish.
1654This thread has been reopened just, JUST for DarkISO.
1655I think changing the title would be more apropriate btw tbh.
1656I know it's late, but I need to say something to the one who started this shit up again...
1657@DarkISO, why? Why did another ponyfag like you have to be the one to do this (re-instigate something that should have died like this!)? I would be okay with this, simply laughing if this were Chris and NOT some typical moron too obsessed with this damn pony show to see how stupid his taste in things truly are with this BS!
1658@DarkISO, why? Why didn't you hide your fucking powerlevel? Why you do this shit (to yourself), son?
1659For Starters - LOOK AT REAL PORN like everyone else does, and honestly should do when they're feeling like that, for once in your life..... Put yourself back on the path to the light - it's never too late to at least do that for yourself, if you're listening, that is.
1660That sort of thread may as well come in if DarkISO stands out compared to other bronies. Hell, if one looked up public post he made in say an MLP forum, one could find something that would make him unique compared to others.
1661Why did another brony like him come in here and reveal his power level? Probably because he couldn't resist and thought that we were making fun of bronies just because Chris made some facebook post about a pastel horse. While our post would make a jab at bronies, Chris would still be the focus. His power level was something he just couldn't contain. He had to let it out like a fool.
1662What Shokew said, it exist. The fandom itself has deviants that could get off to things more extreme than a horse in a sexual position. No doubt you got people into even more disgusting things making something like "shit pony fetish" a reality.
1663Yeah, there wasn't much going on in terms of cringe back then. Thanks to DarkISO though, he brought it back from the grave. If he still wants to come at the forum, he can come here into the brony thread and post how his pony porn isn't bad compared to the post we have on Chris.
1664I say do him the courtesy and give him his own thread, then put this one back out to pasture/to the glue factory for the time being. Especially since we know he's gonna come back.
1665The fandom as a whole sadly doesn't have many people like DarkISO anymore it seems. Lack of content was why this thread was so boring until he showed up.
1666@DarkISO ruined it for other people. Not because they wack off to pony porn (though that is a valid reason) but because they just obsess over the stupidest things relating to ponies. Rather than telling stories of weird brony encounters and having a laugh at them, he chose instead to complain and show his powerlevel. Dude needs to learn not to shove stuff into peoples faces.. We don't care that you're a brony, but if you shove it into our face, we will and we'll act accordingly.
1667Bronies are dying out as the fandom is starting wane. Mostly because people just aren't interested in plastic ponies anymore. That and people like @DarkISO ruined it for other people. Not because they wack off to pony porn (though that is a valid reason) but because they just obsess over the stupidest things relating to ponies. Rather than telling stories of weird brony encounters and having a laugh at them, he chose instead to complain and show his powerlevel. Dude needs to learn not to shove stuff into peoples faces.. We don't care that you're a brony, but if you shove it into our face, we will and we'll act accordingly.
1668I think it's more that there are now new avenues for autism that a lot of people are flocking to. That's the reason it's not as funny anymore. DarkISO's kind often follow bandwagons and all the cows are needed in a new path.
1669Took me a few seconds to figure out his next Tumblr account via trial and error.
1670I found a "euphoric" atheist brony on Twitter. Even his description is a joke.
1671Apparently, DarkISO never got the memo that your NSFW blog should under no circumstances share anything even remotely in common with the username that you normally go under.
1672Why are these types of guys almost carbon copies of each other?
1673I'm going to offer a bit of a caveat, the fandom isn't especially waning, it's more so that it's receiving less attention from the general public, which disincentivises exceptional individuals from going full "LOOK AT ME LOOK AT ME", not only do they have a smaller spotlight, but if they make it into said spotlight, the only thing they're going to be told while in that spotlight is either shape up or fuck off. it's like furries, you could easily point at the lack of furries in the public eye and say "well look at that, the fandom is dying". it's not dying (as evidenced by ever-growing con numbers) but the lack of commonplace behaviors we'd stereotypically expect from a large number of furries is going to give off that impression. granted, I'm going to say that the upcoming release of Zootopia is going to violently thrust furries into the spotlight in general, and while yes, I will 100% admit the fandom will growth, it's not going to be the "explosive growth" that I can almost assure you that it's going to be painted as. most of those furries were there before, you just weren't looking at them.
1674I found it interesting that many bronies now are, as far as i observe, less interested on the actual show and more foccusing on the fanarts. Probably because they have been in community for so long.
1675The fandom as a whole sadly doesn't have many people like DarkISO anymore it seems.
1676no the problem is that all fans of the show are exactly like @DarkISO. his problem was that he felt the need to protest too much while also going the trollshielding alog route (which is another character trait of fans of the show "i'm not as bad as that guy!!")
1677i found this amusing as it was surrounded by some sick shit pony porn
1678Totally agree. I have watched the trends of the MLP virus for the last few years, and think the fandom as a "lifeform" is evolving in much the same way as the Sonic cult did.
1679I think fandoms reach a sort of "maturity" where they become part of the scenery, and lose many of the loud, exceptional traits, but still retain the large amount of members.
1680Perhaps we are seeing this now with MLP...One odd thing I want to add it that bronies mostly always seem to comment with the same one-liners and memes...
1681If I had a dollar for every time a whorse-lover says to me "Do you hate or love MLP?", due to my spoof artworks - I would have some dollars!
1682No half measures! You must either totally love or totally hate...That is the way of Equestria...
1683Damn, you made it back five months? I was out when he commented on a horse dick with "That's a pretty nice looking sheathe she has there..."
1684Some are able to sneak past the radar better than others. Invisible Crane was one that lasted even much longer before people found out who he really was.
1685And for the love of God, choose a different name than what you usually go by online. Especially if you have those sick fetishes or like autistic shit. It's not even original stupidity, but people keep doing it.
1686You know what really makes me sad? Even the sickest and most unfortunately memorable thing bronies did was just a ripoff of something another non-pony related guy did. That kind of says a lot about them as a whole IMO.
1687Sorry for asking, but why did this autism get resurrected?
1688Brony (DarkISO) goes nuts when people talks about his waifu.
1689His posts and the others talking about him are moved here.
1690I wish we had a gag rule about this shit. Where's the funny that we haven't seen before? We just need to keep idiots quiet.
1691Ah! That one caused some fedoras to ignite with rage...Good times.
1692A lot of Chris threads about MLP come and go and they're always shitposts. I really wish a gag rule about Chris and ponies was a thing
1693Not sure that would help though. I mean, we already have a small amount of basic simple rules and people still manage to fuck up. Even if we try to keep idiots quiet, those idiots manage to stand out like a hipster in a death metal concert.
1694But yeah, I know what you mean and totally agree, if we already know a drama is about to happen and it's the same as always (shitposting). It's best we just let it happen and don't add fuel to the fire.
1695I think its supposed to be "grammar nazi" or something.
1696But I did some bored research and apparently the pony is some Fashion pony based on coco chanel, who at one point was a nazi sympathizer. Oops hasbro
1697You can have the weirdest most horrible fetish or like really dumb dull shit, but as long as you keep it to yourself, don't push it into anyone face and don't defend it by insulting the people who criticize it, I think we're good.
1698Everyone who responded to him and reopening the thread were adding fuel to the fire, IMO. A lot of Chris threads about MLP come and go and they're always shitposts. I really wish a gag rule about Chris and ponies was a thing. Instead of biting shitpost bait we should just ignore it from now on.
1699Sadly that hat seems to have fallen out of style. Now I have to associate it with white knights like Andrew Dobson and MovieBlob...
1700But then we'd miss out on all this delicious halal, prime cut lolcow.
1701Found via: Twitter. I'll post a direct link to the convo when I get home, formatting the link is acting wonky on mobile.
1702Edit: mother fucker I went to his tumblr and it was incredibly spergy and fucked, even for my taste in lolcows. 4chan away.
1703I feel like people are turning him into halal, but he isnt halal. We should wait until the mods say it is okay. He stopped sperging for now, and outing someone who is no longer being a shit is 4chans job.
1704I wont say I disagree. But, not all lolcows are spergs. He seemed to stop sperging, and I think we should leave people alone who arent sperging at us or providing tons of content.
1705He may not be sperging here, but I'm sure he's sperging somewhere.
1706Question is, where? And can we keep track of it - like we kinda should, IMHO?
1707Ah yes, his tumblr which has furry porn, brony porn, and rage against the Kiwi Farms.
1708He posted a bunch of furry and pony porn! That'll sure show us!
1709o/t:, they're not even waiting for that new furry movie to be released before they start the porn machine.
1710Why do these fools come in here, HERE, fucking Kiwi Farms, and use the same damn username that they use everywhere else, including their shitty ass porn filled brony blogs??
1711He was sperging about the "fanservice" provided in Jurassic World by Blue.
1712At least the MLP characters are somewhat human girly so as to appeal to the beauty tropes that little girls fixate on, enabling them to be popular with kids by adhering to human standards of beauty (curvy, eyelashes, pastel colors). The bronies find this sexy and attractive, which is fucked but is at least sorta understandable, since they are meant to be attractive and cute to humans by how they are drawn purposely.
1713The dinosaur, however, was a dino. Not sexualized, anthropomorphized, or anything. And yet he still wants to fuck it.
1714I'm not saying context is going to help, but I'm saying that in this case, we fucking need it what the actual, polynomial fuck am I looking at
1715The Dude When you're down here, with us, YOU'LL SPERG TOO!
1716I heard that its indeed actually licensed by Hasbro.
1717Let's stick one of those on a t-shirt, and give it a dick.
1718And not one of those pussy baby dicks either, give it a big ol' schlong.
1719That's what young fashionable adults like, right?"
1720is it bad that every time I see it, I wonder in an increasingly "why is this though passing through my mind" sort of way as to exactly why it's not a horse penis?
1721Pretty sure the one without the mullet is female. Looks to be british high fashion, which tends to take fashion, chop it up, eat it, and vomit it out into something new and fucking weird.
1722The fact we are reacting the way we are is exactly what the designer wanted. Art, baby!
1723In any event, just bringing suit or even threatening it against anyone carrying it would be enough to shut them down.
1724Hasbro generally lets this slide though because the absolute last thing they want is news stories about their flagship product being the subject of horrifying porn.
1725I still wouldn't be surprised if this outfit gets a C&D if this is some kind of clothing line that is actually going to be sold.
1726”I'd like to see every one of these motherfuckers brought up on cyberbullying charges.”
1727Because some really do lack the sense of trying to keep anonmity in terms of usernames. The friend I mentioned earlier said one way you could find a person was by googling their username. I googled a username I once had and a few of the results did bring up an account I had on GaiaOnline. If one could google a name like DarkISO, they'd no doubt find his steam account and his tumblr.
1728Shouldn't be surprising considering that he is a clopper. If more is found on DarkISO' public accounts, he may as well have his own separate thread.
1729Found this bad boy; its a forum where bronies are fairly eloquently discussing the implications of having a crush (romantic or sexual) on a pony. It included a poll about what type of pony you would fuck (anthro or otherwise).
1730Edit: I think the link isnt working and dont know how to fix it
1731.SpoilerTarget">Spoiler: here is the text, sorry if its shitty ← Sugarcube Corner Cafe
1732Poll: Ponies, Love, and Sexuality (91 member(s) have cast votes)
1733Just how do you feel about this.I could have sex with Equestrian ponies. (33 votes)
1734I could have sex with humanized ponies. (37 votes)
1735I have a crush on a pony, or at least I would consider a ship with one if I did. Nothing beyond that though. (28 votes)
1736No. Not at all. I don't even have a crush--I really just want to keep ponies innocent. (28 votes)
1737If the combination of the above words personally disturb you, then you're probably not in a topic you should be.
1738The impetus behind this thread is a combination of several things that have happened lately. This is something I'm talked a little about in another thread, and have implied a bit in general. I thought about posting this in said thread (The "shipping" thread, FYI) but decided it's kind of a broad topic all on it's own. And something I think about often.
1739What are the Mane 6? They're a cast of female characters. Oh, and they're ponies. But first and foremost, they're characters with human personalities that we can identify with, and compare to people we know in real life. It's not hard to imagine then, that some people would start to develop feelings and "crushes" for them. I really think that is a far more common phenomenon than some people may think.
1740I have simultaneous crushes on Rainbow Dash and Twilight Sparkle. I'm not ashamed to say it. I know of a few people who feel the same way, and I imagine there are others that have hard time with idea--either in themselves or in others. I think people tend to forget that these characters are ultimately "anthro" if you go by the text-book definition, which is to say that they have a lot of human in them. I honestly perceive them as humans on the inside, they just come in a different package.
1741So what about a step further than crushes? What about actual sex? Look, I'll be blatant here. In the hypothetical world where it's possible, I would have sex with most of the Mane 6, especially my two favorites. There I said it. Being a furry, it's pretty easy for me to accept this within myself.
1742But I won't try to justify it here to other people, other than it's not, and I repeat NOT, bestiality in the least. I know how I feel about ponies, and I simply do not condone bestiality. They're worlds apart, and anyone who thinks otherwise just doesn't understand the furry mind-set. If you really want to talk about it, feel free to send me a PM--I'm perfectly happy with talking about it. I just want to avoid getting into some kind of debate.
1743Under normal circumstances, I'd never post something like this publicly--but I really do trust the commitment to love and tolerance in this community so I'm just going to go ahead with it--shocking as it may be to some people. I'm perfectly expecting a little bit hate from the odd member or two; though certainly not any of the regulars. While you're free to your own opinion about me, I won't tolerate any blatantly hateful or aggressive comments.
1744Anyways, the reason I'm ultimately posting this is, how do people feel on this topic? How many others are actually like minded if any?
1745I'm making this topic a poll but setting to private, so that anyone can cast their vote anonymously if they're not comfortable with coming out and saying it. I also apologize for the blatant nature of this topic, but I can't really think of any other way to post it.
1746To prevent confusion, here is your official guide:
1747Basically just human. But with traits that make them recognizable as the pony characters.
1748Still Bipedal, and usually possessing certain.. .um--human "attributes". But still borrowing many animal qualities from their full-on pony incarnations.
1749Basically, as they appear in the show. For the sake of consistency though, I used fanart for the example.
1750- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
1751All of them with Rainbow Dash, I know. Deal with it.
1752I treat animals like humans, so yeah I say it's cool to like-like one. As some of you know, I call my dog, Korri, my girl a lot.
1753I'm not a furry or into beastiality, but I rub her chest whenever she rolls on her back and tell her what a busty babe she is. Though it's joking more than anything, she is quite the slender dog
1754But also, like you said, FiM ponies act like humans, and the animators have the ponies do some "interesting" poses at times (Dat Plot material) And they also have qualities to them that I'd like in a girl, like RD & AJ's tomboy attitudes or Pinkie's (almost)always carefree personality.
1755I've been struggling wth this to an extent. Yes the secret just came out a while back that I have a bit of a crush on Applejack.
1756I think mine is a bit of I analyse things. I have a bit of an active mind. I also immerse myself in a good environment, fictional or otherwise. I have a very creative mind. Add these to halves together, and I can easily think my way onto most any situation.
1757Why Applejack? She's familiar to me. She represents the values I grew up with, She also comes from a strong, loving family, just as I have.
1758At this point I would like to address that this fantasy crush revolves around me being a cartoon pony myself, in their world. Not me as a human.
1759As for the crush? I find it to be rather innocent. Romantic at best. I simply cannot picture sexual relations with a pony. I think, and this is some speculation on my part, that since that is not covered in the show, to go down that road would break from canon for me, and thus ruin the immersion, and with it the fantasy.
1760The only aspect I struggle with is that I have not told my wife. Though I beleive that if this crush doesn't simply pass by, by the time I need to tell her, I will be able to. I imagine I'm making a bigger deal out of this than it has to be, but I don't like to keep secrets from her. I am also somewhat new to the concept of personas on the net and in RPs, and a good friend of mine pointed out that AJ is essentially an NPC, as opposed to crushing on another player's OC, which could lead down a bad road.
1761Thanks to Rainbro Dash and Twilight Pixel, who both helped me to sort this all out.
1762And if anypony needs to talk about these issues before posting here, you can always find a friendly ear with a brony.
1763For me, I see two kinds of physical attraction. The first is based on hormones, evolution, and reproductive drive. It's the kind of attraction you feel when you see that hot guy or gal at the beach. It's instant, and physical. For me, that's limited to humans and near humans. Catgirls/boys, anthros with a mostly human face, etc, can trigger that for me.
1764The other is a physical attraction that is based on existing emotional bonds. I find a person's soul more important to attraction than the body. So, if I were able to interact with and become actual friends with a pony, it's possible that could lead to touching, intimate contact, and possibly sex. But it would be for the purpose of shared intimacy, not libido or sex drive, and cuddles could fill that role just as well. So for me, sex with one as they are is remotely possible, based on that thinking.
1765However, ponies are a slice of girlhood that I missed out on. So for me, ponies are innocent, and shall remain so. No Rule 34 or Cupcakes. They are a nostalgic piece of the childhood I wasn't allowed to have, and I won't mess that up.
1766So I guess I need to be able to vote a couple of ways. I'm keeping ponies innocent, but conceptually, I could be okay with more.
1767Edited by TwilightPixel, 12 February 2012 - 08:19 PM.
1768I've never actually said this outside of my own mind before, but I do have a small crush on Twilight Sparkle, or on her character anyway. She has this sweet loving nature about her, and she's someone who has that infectious happiness. She's the kind of person I would love to hold and cuddle with on a couch while looking at her beautiful smile. However, I wouldn't go as far as saying I would want to have sex with her. That's mostly because I always thought sex should be something shared between complete lovers, to preserve the special feeling not just on your genitals, but in your heart. (That sounded a lot less awkward in my head)
1769As for the fact that they are ponies and not humans, I personally couldn't imagine dating a pony. That's coming specifically from my instincts, really. Basically, if I knew a girl just like Twilight Sparkle, I'd love to date her, but if Twilight Sparkle were real, I wouldn't.
1770Well I guess it's not much of a secret that I had and still have a crush on Fluttershy, and as Rainbro said it, it is because of her amazing personality and it is far away from beastiality in every single way. Yes, I would have considered having sex with Fluttershy if she existed in our world and there was no consequences involved (and we were a couple of course, I am not into raping obviously) seeing how I have started to see Equestrian ponies as humans that are more human than human in a different shape and form, and most defintly not as animals. As seen in the show, there is a big difference between normal animals and the ponies, hay the ponies even have pets.
1771At first I though the whole concept of ponies x humans was some sort of sick Internet perversion (see early Shipping thread posts if you wish to see me make an ass out of myself), but once I realised it was a form of "furryism" and not beastiality it was pretty obvious for me atleast that it wasn't something to call the mental ward about.
1772...to be frank, I would want to have sex just as they are. I am not a furry, but even so, I would still do it. Why, I wonder, would I have sex with an animal? Well, Like Rainbro explained, the ponies have human personalities and behaviors, and their look just strikes me; I always found large eyes to be highly adorable, like something you would see from an anime. Plus, the ponies are basically us in their world, so I don't see a problem from there. Being anthro is....too human for them, I admit it. Plus, I wouldn't imagine it happening.
1773Throughout the series, I've developed major crushes on Applejack, Twilight, and Rarity. Why? Applejack's accent, Twilight's adorkable look and voice, and Rarity's glamour. I highly wouldn't go public and speak of this anywhere else, only if I had brony friends who really understand me. Aside from the three, the three other ponies Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, and Pinkie Pie I would possibly step in as different point of views. Firstly, to me, Rainbow Dash isn't cute or adorable, but someone I would find as "cool" and someone to hang out with. Fluttershy is just cute, and nothing more. I would take her out, but knowing her, she would stray from being romantic. And Pinkie Pie is just Pinkie Pie. Someone I would have fun with, but not in a sexual way.
1774To me, having a crush on a pony is naturally ordinary. Itis a little weird to think that, and somehow, I'm not quite certain how that feels, and it's hard to find something so innocent to mankind that brought in tosexuality.
1775I voted anthro. I suppose i could go with option one if I was a pony myself. As for my favorite, sexual would definitely be rainbow dash. Rough, tough, and wild. That would be my dream girl in bed. As for romance, fluttershy. I frequently imagine myself cuddling fluttershy sometimes to help me fall asleep. She's just so cute... I would love her too much to be in a sexual relationship with her. RD would be my girl to call for a good time. No relationship with her because she can be too much of a douche sometimes and that irks me to no end. Plus, I would like to live with fluttershy and help take care of the animals.
1776Im in the same boat as you Rainbro, being a furry i can imagine it, though my attration is more of toward the personallity rather than a sexual relationship (unless they are humans)
1777I'm pretty much on the same page with newbzoors here. I find the personalities loveable and wouldn't mind dating someone with one of those personalities, but not the actual pony. As for the other stuff, no thanks. I don't really like to think about that stuff and MLP at the same time.
1778Made the vote allow multiple choice in lieu of some comments. Makes sense really, as it's a complex topic.
1779I'm still keeping the votes private. Anyone who wants to speak up about it is free to post, but other wise I want to respect anonymity.
1780Despite my orientation in real life, I'd totally ship with a female pony. Sex: not really sure. I'm really more into personality. I might do it though.
1781Edited by Rainbow Dashâ„¢, 12 February 2012 - 10:03 PM.
1782I've already had a conversation about this with a very close friend of mine, I think I will just repost the convo and add me thoughts on it afterwards
1783I was told that I should never be bothered of the fact on whether or not I'm attracted to a pony. So I won't, and I won't judge anyone that is or is not attracted to one.
1784Rainbro.... You is lucky I like you have not incurred the wrath of the sleepy Mrs. K
1785I'm personally unable to find the pony form sexually attractive but I mean, my rule is: do what you want with who you want, AS LONG AS ALL INVOLVED PARTIES ARE CONSENTING.
1786Ponies would be capable of consent, as they are sentient beings, so I mean, in a reality where such a thing would be possible sure, go for it.
1787I think early on i developed a crush towards fluttershy's personality, later on with twilight and Rainbow dash too (excluding her ego) so i was always phantisising about humanized forms of them. Dating them and the like. even getting to the sex part as romantic partners... of course that's implying any of them would fall in love with me (unlikely as f***)
1788Truthfully, at this point i would have sex with their pony forms. this mind you is limited to those 3 ponies, and nothing more. I'm perfectly open to such an idea and as long as the party was willing.
1789Though i'd never dive right into that stuff, it's all new to me and i'd need to slowly work my way around how they'd worth with me. (conversations, romantic stuff sex etc etc). Overall, not against the idea, but slightly uncomfortable with it
1790I don't believe it's necessary at all but I would warn that forming too close of an attachment to a fictional entity is never really a good thing, because it can only ever be one-sided. So while a "crush" is one thing, don't let it lead into "obsession."
1791Agreed. Just look at some Japanese men that get married to an Anime character in a dating sims game. Yea...
1792While I really tolerate it to the fulliest, I just feel bad for them. Like what Dollop said, you love them but they can't truly love you back; you just have to imagine/pretend that they do (but then again in a dating sims game, it could actually tell you the "stats" on screen that so and so loves you, but w/e).
1793So therefore, I don't have a crush on any of them. They may have wonderful personalities that you could fall in love with but the fact that there is no chance that they can show affection to you back is just a big dissuasion. Personally, I think the whole responding part is one of the most essential parts in love. While its great that so and so has a wonderful personality (and maybe even looks), it's even more special if you alone can make them happy; even if its a simple smile or laugh.
1794Bronies are disgusting and I wouldn't have sex with them even in desperation.
1795Its not totally MLP, its just a pastel pony that is similar in style so I dont know if hasbro has any ground to stand on legally.
1796I actually love this. Its making bronies incredibly uncomfortable as well as nonspergs, which is really what it intends to do
1797Also go me... total guess that it was from the UK.
1798To stop the derailege, I have made a thread for him specifically.
1799I'm pretty sure it's a version of the character Scootaloo, except with a dick.
1800Galaxy Harasser NO. Magenta horsecock is foreboden.
1801You guys know of any bronies that were like "I was into MLP before FIM! So I'm not some dumb poseur brony. "
1802I had an old (now-ex) friend that pulled that card. "I'm not a brony! I was a pony fan before FIM! *never brought up liking ponies until he got into FIM*"
1803My Ponies Hate You Now," but I honestly think that the ponies are the least of that guy's issue.
1804I literally couldn't finish the episode. Episode 100? What was it called?
1805**Warning: Fans of the episode as well as fans of the Brony culture will want to burn me for this journal. Do not read if you are a whiny pissbaby, go make your Hot Pockets instead.**
1806Let me remind you that my sister and I saw the worst animated film of all time last night because we like watching shit movies before watching amazing movies so that the amazing movie can be even more epic. Curiosity? Yeah, we saw The Swan Princess Christmas Special and then went to go see Jurrassic World- holy Hell we felt like we took steroids after that movie.
1807Anyways, back to my review. Why did I mention that first thing about the movies? Well, because I just saw the worst animated episode of anything in all of my life. It wasn't created by Hasbro. We literally just saw an animated fan episode air on television. We gave the one hundredth episode...a landmark...a milestone of animated works...to the fans. All of it. They made the characters that THEY designed and created and granted the fans all of the power to create them. Now I know your questions: What's the problem with that?
1808To the show's credit, it didn't give Bronies ALL of the power. I mean sure I gave up the episode midway, but I know they didn't depict Molestia...I hope. Anyways, this is a horrible HORRIBLE abomination of an episode not because of its jokes. Not because of the references. Not because of the super redundant plot that is handled by characters nobody cares about since they are only in the background and because the show already has a focus on the mane six who have come so far and grown so much and allow so many people to relate to them....but because of who was in charge of it- the Bronies.
1809The Bronies created those jokes, those references. They were the ones who mde Lyra and Bonbon that close to each other. They are the ones who paired Vinyl with Octavia. They are the ones who gave a shit about Steven Magnet. They are the ones who even bothered to learn Derpy's fucking name. Not the little girls. Not the true fans of the show. This show was created for little girls. A cute show for them to watch and learn and laugh and share their lessons with their friends.
1810This episode could have been a special for them. A grand lesson with amazing animation and spending an adventure with our awesome ponies. It could have been an episode that maybe was a milestone in another way- a hard lesson. How about an episode that teaches little girls about diversity and acceptance? About the pain of loss? About how certain people aren't meant for each other no matter how delusional they are? About prejudice? About abuse? ABOUT SOMETHING RELEVANT IN THE WORLD TODAY? "Oh that would be too dark! We can't have a cute show being slandered with stuff like that!"
1811Well, hypocritical goose penises, who's the one who's drawing all of the R34? Look, I got personally got nothing against you if you're drawing porn of MLP- art is freedom. If it floats your boat, float on. BUT if you try to stop the show from depicting IMPORTANT messages on television because they may be "dark", you're being FAR too hypocritical. But no, we get an episode for older men to laugh at in front of their webcams as they play Minecraft in the corner. Even the first punchline was the Derpy muffin meme.
1812Plus, this show is smart, alright? At times it's even downright brilliant. You know the episode when Zecora was introduced? That was a subtle episode about prejudice and judging others because they're different. Hell, that's almost a message about racism that they teach to children. But they did it in an appropriate way, still keeping in the tone of the show. What about the episode with Pinkie Sense? That was controversial because parent's bitched about it being a subtle wink to religion and how non-believers will get the boot. But that wasn't the point of it- it was an episode that taught children that not everything will be handed to you in terms of answers. It taught them that it's okay to be confused. That's not easy to teach. What about the infamous Lesson Zero? That's my all time favorite episode, I'll tell you. Why? Because I, as an eighteen year old, relate to it. And I am sure little girls do too. It was about paranoia and fear of not being good enough and it taught how having flaws makes you all the more beautiful and how it's necessary to care for other people's "trivial" problems. That's amazing.
1813These writers know what they are doing. And sadly, I think they REALLY knew what they were doing in this episode. They were pandering to Bronies and not caring AT ALL for its true target audience. This episode sickened me in how the writers didn't even care about the main characters. It was nothing but a cruel metaphor, almost like it was trying to tell the Bronies what the problem was. Here are the characters WE ARE SUPPOSED TO LOVE SINCE WE GROW WITH THEM IN THEIR ADVENTURES RATHER THAN CREATE OUT OF THE BACKGROUND AND SUDDENLY CARE FOR MORE (Derpy is more popular than Applejack and Rarity, guys, wake up) and they are fighting a grand beast. We could join them in this adventure, but no, the camera focused on characters who aren't even supposed to have names. It's a metaphor- all for how the Bronies don't care for the show at all anymore. They only care about what THEY do for the show. They only like it when an episode panders to THEM. When was the last time we even had a "Dear Princess Celestia", huh?!
1814Now to clarify this- I am not one of those people who boycott kids shows from adults. Far from it. I adore children's programming such as Gravity Falls, Steven Universe, and of course My Little Pony. I adore all of those shows. Heck, even I am guilty of drawing dark fan art for MLP. I admit that. But as I said, art is freedom- I won't shame you for your porn, so don't shame me for my dark crap. I WISH TO CLARIFY that the creators and the fans are not free from fault. THe creators took it upon themselves to create this episode based on the Bronies. THat's wrong. It alienates the children.
1815If the writers keep writing episodes like this, you risk alienating the target audience and only keeping the Bronies who made Snowdrop a cultural phenomenon. If Bronies loved the show to begin with, when it was "girly" and actually taught lessons to the kids, I am sure they will stick around if you keep to that status quo. You'll keep kids and Bronies- everyone wins. BUT if you do episodes like this that hand the show only for the Bronies to enjoy, it takes away the original form little girls who already have so little.
1816Hey on the bright side, they inspired me to draw classic MLP again.
1817Man the autism of the fans of this show is painful
1818I dont get this guy. I looked up the episode he was sperging about and it was fanmade. Literally, fans created it. Hasbro (I dont believe) had anything to do with it.
1819Eh, at least the stupidity of a brony like that shows how much autism can come out of them, sperging against what turns about to be fan-made content.
1820“It's hard to be a woman as I wear a diaper and there's shit all over my dick. The oppression of kiwi farms did this to me.“
1821I think he's talking about the newest actual episode that was a special one because it was the 100th episode. He didn't like it so he was comparing it to a fan-made episode that he also didn't like. I don't get the rest of the bitching though. Can't decipher.
1822And sadly it's not the first time I've seen somebody pull the "IT'S BAD BECAUSE NOPONY UTTERED THE WORDS 'DEAR PRINCESS CELESTIA'" bullshit.
1823I'm Eli J. Brown. My username here was LinkandRutofan when I first joined. But after I was given Premium Membership, I had the option to change my username, so I changed it to Eli-J-Brony. So I'm a guy who likes Thomas the Tank Engine, Sonic the Hedgehog, TUFF Puppy, Bionicle, Hero Factory, My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, and video games.
1824I do respect other people's opinions on couples from TV shows and i hope you do the same for me. I also will tell you that I think that not everyone who doesn't like a certain couple is an Anti-"(Insert couple name here)"-Person. (Example, if you don't like SonAmy, but do respect those who do, you're not an Anti-SonAmy person). An Anti-SonAmy person is someone who not only hates the couple, but also doesn't respect other people's opinions. So if you don't like SonAmy, but do respect the opinion of those who do, you're not an Anti-SonAmy person.
1825If you don't like any of these couples, I respect that. I just hope you'll do the same for me.
1826Bring TUFF Puppy back to American TV Airing www.change.org/petitions/nicke…
1827He appears to have the MS Paint skills of a 8 year old. And look what he's on!
1828"... is an earth pony who was born a hedgehog on Mobius who later used a universal portal to get to TUFF Puppy's Earth and then made his way intoEquestria through a mirror his friends from Petropolis had."
1829This guy isn't a special snowflake; he's a goddamn special avalanche.
1830""Enter LinkAndRutoFan, EliJBrown's 'alter ego'. Enter a paranoid, delusional internet stalker with a passion for writing about other people's characters falling madly in love with him and boinking and having a family. Sounds verily like Runnic too come to think of it."
1831lol and all i did was google things that related to bronies within that past 24 hours lol literally took something from the first results
1832Troll Hooves, really? Really scraping to the bottom of the barrel here on creativity. And he should have given that pony at least a really bushy, unkempt main and maybe colored it shades of brown.
1833@PickleGuy said, the passive aggressive feeling that comes from that post. He keeps it up, he will just have more coming at him.
1834Hm, we have "Idon't care what you think" and "I'm rolling with the punches." Countdown to "It was all a social experiment" and "DANCE, PUPPETS, DANCE!"
1835I've had some experiences with previous generation fans of MLP, but I don't think it would be good to say them here because I know there are fans of it.
1836In the fanfiction.net thread, somebody mentioned that FIMfiction should have a thread of its own, so here it is.
1837FIMfiction is a site which hosts all manner of My Little Pony fanfics. And by all manner I mostly mean 'porn and autism'.
1838FiMfiction has no quality standards at all. Dakari-King Mykan aka the awful "My Little Unicorn" guy posted his fanfic there (he has a thread here somewhere). It's considered the bottom of the barrel even by the low, low, low standards of pony fanfics created by smelly manchildren. The rest of the fanfics that are not porn are often pretentious "avant garde" bullshit made by people who like to think that they are participating in an intellectual exercise and not a television show meant to entertain children.
1839I once knew a guy who frequented this site and might have been somewhat popular there. He was autistic and wrote a shitload of stories about ponies crossing over with literally everything he was interested in, which mostly meant Nintendo games. And not-so-notably, he entered a relationship with a girl he met on there while she was about 12/13 and he was 17, and that may or may not have ended with him molesting her.
1840I would provide more information, but my connection to the guy is rather personal. Would it be considered powerleveling? (Or just boring derailment?)
1841a) the guy or his content is funny/interesting b) you can tell us about him without telling your own life story c) you don't risk doxxing yourself (or him doxxing you) then it should be ok.
1842This breeding ground for autism should be thoroughly searched so threads can be made about the worst people on the site.
1843“I'm not going to have a battle of wits in the comments section of YouTube with someone who showed up unarmed.”
1844. Wasn't there a Sonichu/Warhammer crossover as well?
1845Piga Dgrifm Where are those good old fashioned values?
1846Honestly, I feel like this could have worked if it didn't take itself seriously. I know jack shit about ponies, but I feel like you could get some good jokes out of the premise. But that's the thing - the fic is completely serious. And that's not even the worst thing about it. The worst thing about it is that it basically takes the plot of Fallout 3 and paints lesbian ponies over the whole thing. So large chunks of the plot are basically plagiarized. The writer couldn't even be bothered to come up with an original idea for his grimdark crossover.
1847Plus, why the hell would you combine ponies and a shooting game? How are they supposed to use guns?
1848Alright, I just took a look back, and... I clearly underestimated the amount of weirdness tied to this dude's name. I think this would be of some degree of interest after all.
1849They are currently 19 and 15, respectively. I believe they first met around the time they signed up, which would place them at about 16 and 12. In addition to their various pieces of horsefiction, they both were active bloggers and have a fair amount of archived PDA. (In Flarp's case, I would suspect this was his only social outlet whatsoever.) Some choice links:
1850Parts one, two, and three of a random-access humor story about his self-insert A spinoff by a mutual friend, wherein Flarp and Flan fuck everywhere and cover the whole town in ejaculate Kurt Cobain's suicide retold with ponies (?????) Blog posts from Flarp and Flan about the first time they met in real life, both featuring inappropriately sexual remarks. They were not dating at this point.
1851This nonsensical poem Both of them fell relatively inactive after breaking up in early 2014, so there's nothing really in the way of new content. He still remains a sperglord with only slightly improved social skills.
1852.SpoilerTarget">Spoiler: the personal (tl;dr) side Flan is my little sister. She's been interested in My Little Pony since she was a small child, and she was on board with FiM ever since it started airing. She had always kept tabs on various fansites, so her stumbling into bronydom wasn't a surprise. I believe she and Flarp hit it off while they were both new to the scene, since they had similar writing styles and senses of humor.
1853Their friendship seemed harmless enough at first, since he clearly had a childlike mentality. His awkwardness and inappropriate sexual jokes could easily be chalked up to the 'tism. However, things soon got pretty serious. They became best friends, talking to each other whenever possible, about things they couldn't share with anyone else - which in retrospect, most likely happened because Flarp is very quick to open up about private issues in his life. (I later learned that they briefly "dated" during this period, but broke it off because they didn't feel right about it. This did not stop Flarp from constantly lusting over Flan.)
1854The first Big Red Flag was when they both arranged to meet each other and their families in real life. Amazingly enough, the majority of the parents involved decided there was absolutely nothing fishy about this at all, and this and all subsequent dates went through more or less without a hitch. (The only one who protested was Flan's - and my - mother, who unsuccessfully pushed her to get the hell out of Dodge for the better part of the year.) I don't have much information on the date itself beyond what they have posted publicly, but notable is the fact that this was the first time I met and interacted with Flarp. He appeared to be rather unwashed and disheveled, and seemed to have great difficulty introducing himself and carrying on a conversation. My mom, who was actually interested in getting to know him, reported that his idea of small talk was explaining inside jokes about fucking her thirteen-year-old daughter.
1855Very shortly after this, they started officially dating, and all was rosy on the Fimfiction front. Under the surface, though, I strongly suspect now there was some severe grooming going on. If she liked something, he'd get into it too. If she wanted something, up to and including entire video game consoles, he'd mooch off his parents to send it to her. (His family is both obscenely rich and obscenely coddling.) When she started having her first sexual thoughts over a fictional character, and expressed that fact to him, he went out and bought a cosplay of that character to "please" her. He eventually started to become more and more mentally unstable and depended on a naive little girl to be his counselor. There was a point where he had put a gun to his head over a Skype call and had the girl in tears trying to convince him not to do it. All this added up to a relationship that was no longer based off of love, but the idea that "you're so important to me and you'll never find a better guy!".
1856The event that started to seriously destabilize their relationship was their second meeting, at an anime convention. (I happened to be attending as well, so that was the second and last time I met him. He was mostly the same, just standing around awkwardly and making occasional remarks.) According to Flan, he was starting to be very touchy-feely with her in public, and it made her rather uncomfortable but she didn't feel like she could ask him to stop. At some point (very shortly after I had left!) he forcibly kissed her, mouth-to-mouth, with tongue, and it was fucking horrible. I can only imagine how many days he'd forgotten to brush. She immediately excused herself to the restroom and literally vomited in the toilet because the taste and feeling of violation made her sick to her stomach.
1857Their final date took place some 6 months later, with their relationship still on rocky grounds but the previous incident mostly forgiven. They were, again, planning on attending an anime convention, this time dressed as her then-favorite fictional couple. The event was very close to Flarp's house, so it was most convenient for them to spend the nights over there... which ended up causing problems. Flan broke down crying on the first night and had to be brought home because he would not stop touching her, and it only worsened when he broke up with her over text because she didn't like being molested. Yes, I reiterate, he fucked her up so badly that she felt bad for not wanting to be molested! He managed to control the situation by claiming he had developed schizophrenia (which may or may not be true - i.e., diagnosed) and had to keep touching her to make sure she wasn't one of his delusions. He also convinced her that she had sensory issues that made her highly sensitive and uncomfortable with being touched in normal ways. (This is something that runs in our family, but she didn't inherit anything of the sort.) They managed to stay friends for a while, but drifted apart as Flarp's sexual fixations went elsewhere.
1858These days, she openly declares him an abuser and someone who traumatized her. While she previously viciously denied that anything sexual had happened between them, since she's been out of that relationship for a long time, she's now able to see it for what it really was...
1859She's a hardcore Tumblrite now, hanging out with ridiculous special snowflakes while whining about her "abusive" parents taking her phone away. She is being encouraged to use this experience for Oppression Brownie Pointsâ„¢. I am probably not going to get a clear view of her side of the story for a long time, unfortunately.
1860I don't think the site is that bad. In fact, I've posted a couple of my autistic atrocities there. However, there are a lot of pretentious fuckwads and spergs a plenty.
1861Since she dropped out of freshman highschool, her language and hand writing, even for a unicorn, was very poor, but barely legible. Then, of all things, she started to sing. She started to sing very softly.
1862“I'm not that dumb... but I can pretend...” She started. She turned around and headed toward the gun that lie on the floor, tears still running down her face.
1863“The sun is... gone... but I have a light...” Her voice mildly cracked as she stopped in front of the gun. Vinyl slowly started to lift it with her magic.
1864“The day is... done... but I'm... having... fun.” She began to stutter. She was shaking, her heart pumping the fastest it ever had. She had lifted the gun to the side of her head. Everything was going white.
1865“I... think I'm dumb...” She swallowed harshly before finishing her last verse.
1866“Maybe just....” It was on the tip of her tongue. She knew she had to say it, or life would just get more miserable. She then smiled in sincere happiness for the last time in her life. She was finally satisfied with her life.
1867And just like that, the future of the 90's music was tossed out of the window of one of the most brilliant minds in the world. The head of everypony's favorite type of music lie dead on the floor, a gun next to her hoof and blood spilling from her head. Many tears would be had by her actions, but she knew that if she wouldn't do this now, she would only do it later in her torturous life.
1868"Fimfiction Weirdness"? All of Fimfiction is weird. When I was invading Jin's safe space, he would keep linking me these rapey stories involving child ponies. Fimfiction is just a weird place in general.
1869wristwatchswisswatch "Zvantastika is batman now "- Chris Nolan
1870FimFiction makes me cringe, as I lost a cousin to that shit website.
1871FimFiction is a cesspool of autism, weirdness, and horrifying horse porn. There, I summed up the website in one sentence.
1872I think Bethesda actually likes Fallout Equestria and has a bunch of framed artwork of it in their offices, as well as a few employees who have admitted that they're fans. Ugh.
1873I just want to know how they're getting away with selling those books. It sounds like the kind of thing Hasbro wouldn't want associated with their brand-name.
1874Don't forget that they are never not cringeworthy. They are bound to make one laugh at their idiocy and bound to make one cringe at their spergery.
1875That honestly makes one wonder if they actually read it. Someone at Bethesda should know how edgy and/or stupid something like that is, crossing over Fallout and MLP.
1876Same could go with Bethesda since Fallout: Equestria uses some things from Fallout such as vaults and power armor that is of Fallout.
1877Since FIMFiction is mentioned, I remember coming across one series of fan-fictions that is pretty much a rape fetish. I shared it with Saney in asking him if it sounded like something a love-shy written. He did say one of the gary-stu villains did sound something like Fschmidt in having male superiority and letting the rape of women being legal.
1878They read it or at least saw some of the art of it and absolutely loved it. Enough that there's stuff of it hanging in their offices.
1879.SpoilerTarget">Spoiler: The Crypto-Anarchist Manifesto
1880Some would just be confused since really, what the hell is it blabbering about? Is it trying to be a manifesto in that bronies will hack the system or something?
1881'Burn the heretic. Purge the mutant. Kill the unclean.' seems to have been largely ignored.
1882They couldn't agree on Rainbow Dash's sexual orientation.
1883If that were true, then that would mean their common ancestor had sex with an octopus.
1884Do you ever cringe so hard it almost physically hurts?
1885It's a common fan theory that the ponies have a sort of suction cup attached to their hooves.
1886Shouldn't the answer be "It's a fucking cartoon. Cartoon animals do that shit all the time?"
1887There is a plague of crossovers between cute shit and grimderp. It is concentrated autism. There are also Warhammer 40K spergs.
1888I've seen quite a bit of brony fan art like that. They'll take the most badass or grimdark subject matter and then throw ponies into it. Or would it be more accurate to say they're trying to link ponies to badasshood or grimdark? It's like these guys are ashamed their pet show is targeted at little girls and are trying to "macho" their fandom up to compensate.
1889I still remember when the bronies were being showered with praise for bucking traditional gender roles. Once I found out the whole fandom got started on fucking 4chan, I had even less reason to take that claim at face value than before.
1890”Elliot Rodger was right about many of these things but unfortunately never managed to understand the problem the way I did – had he been given a chance to do so he might still be alive.
1891Either it is compensation through macho or it is just autism of combining something unrelated with horses. 4Chan can no doubt have some regrets since the fandom itself started off as a joke until some people took it more seriously, leading up to the autistic fandom we have to this day.
1892It's mostly this autistic desire to see the cheery become the dreary. Fanfiction did the same thing for the same reason for years, and you see milder forms in some types of reboots and remakes.
1893We are looking too deep I think. I think it's really just "I like thing and other thing too, I'll mix them" but it's weird because one is on the surface uber saccharine and doesn't fit with much else. Like if you crossed over Pixar with Nolan's Batman or something.
1894Yeah, some no doubt will combine stuff like MLP and Warhammer or Sonic and Pokemon because they have some love for them that they think their crossover must be good despite how incompatible they can be.
1895Crossovers as a whole are pretty bad as a concept, making grimdark just makes it even worse regardless of source material. I blame the 1990s.
1896If it were done with the slightest hint of self-awareness, it could be played for the humor value of two such ridiculously at-odds things being mashed up. But it's often taken absurdly seriously. It still has humor value, but it's the unintentional humor of the extremely autistic.
1897It's not even just with pony stuff, the big thing lots of people do is just take two popular franchises and mash them together so they can be sold on a shirt or something. Popular culture is just being swallowed up and shit out in an amorphous blob of easily marketable garbage that has none of the factors people who liked the sources it came from liked for a quick buck. Probably to be bought by megaspergs who dont realize how lame it is.
1898So stay tuned for my shipping video of the Noid and Kayley from Quest for Camelot.
1899Abd people say Sonichu is un-original. I bring you all something way worse, Angron Dash. Yeah, bronies are worse than CWC. That is a memorable achievement.
1900Considering CWC and bronies, it's kinda ironic in the lol-cows saying Chris isn't like them even though we see Chris was into MLP, even before the bronies came. Even if they said it is just the old stuff, Chris does have a McDonalds video of himself with his Lego highschool complete with a My Little Pony Equestria Girls movie. They can't shake Chris off of them.
1901Some of them even manage to supress Chris when they really get spergy. Chris is also totally into the new MLP. He was just also into old MLP before it was "cool".
1902Aside from that, some bronies can be worse in Chris, just like A-Log. Sure they can say they didn't use an attraction sign to get a girlfriend but if one did do an experiment putting a pony toy in a jar of spooge, that is just as disgusting if not more than disgusting.
1903Someone mentioned once Chris doesn't really care about stuff as long as it remains light and fluffy, and doesn't really pick up on most things. All of the stuff that he spergs about likely comes from FB pages he follows. He just gets mad at whatever everyone else is getting mad at, he has no opinion of his own. That being said his love of MLP was only dating back to the Megan saga while Sanic was his childhood. It's why he would mace someone over Sonic's arms but just goes "meh" at a cartoon horse's name being changed.
1904The jar "experiment" wasn't even an original idea, sadly. I always really hate it when a decent artist like the guy who drew that 40K stuff wastes it on children's cartoons of any kind.
1905Ok, so, to clarify: Chris is a brony. He is super into MLP:FIM.
1906Chris was also into old instances of MLP. Initially that was kicked off by Megan, but Chris' later obsessions over the subject were legit. Like, he sperged hardcore about the subject, even without Megan caring.
1907Chris adopts attractive aspects of other people's personality in an attempt to make himself more attractive.
1908I kind of figured that, but the way he argues/spergs about stuff seems like a result of his modern "Facebook only" incarnation. He just spends all day looking for vaguely related FB pages, and when he finds a pony one he just follows along. Most of his arguments come verbatim from this. MLP seems like it's only a minor thing to him because it came at a later point in his life than Sonic.
1909He just sort of shrugged off the whole "Muffins" thing. It doesn't seem like he cared that much. Personally, I'm waiting for someone to introduce him to other spergbait shows like Adventure Time or Steven Universe. You'd think he would love the latter.
1910“If I see this email posted on your site, action will be commenced against you.”
1911While it could be serious, it could also be someone making a joke. Still, if a brony did wish it was real, one would ask him why would he think that? It would only lead to a person like him getting mocked even more and such.
1912A huge part of me wants to believe this isn't serious but...well shit if people weren't capable of being that completely brain-dead and publishing it online then this forum wouldn't exist.
1913Went looking in the comments section and this appeared
1914He might but let us make sure to stay on topic because someone fell for some bait in thinking the church shooter is a brony:
1915As for Chris, while he is no doubt a fan of the show, I am really curious of where he hangs. Since he mentionned shipping in his episode 100 post, that means he's aware of it, which means he hangs out SOMEWHERE to talk or at least see the fandom discussions and fannons.
1916The most obvious would be the Round Stable since the place is filled with transgender, Tumblrites and SJW who disdain the rest of the fandom, but I wouldn't count on him knowing about it.
1917It certainly is minor compared to Sonic. We haven't seen Chris mace an anti-brony or some brony that disagrees with him. While the stuff may be Facebook only, MLP:FiM could still hold some place in him, maybe with Equestria Girls since it combines the horses with one thing he felt was his glory years: high school.
1918The best part is that the thing the person was screaming at her about was an episode that's over a year old. Oh, and she doesn't even write for the show anymore. But damn is it refreshing to see someone stand up to people like that writer did.
1919I think we're giving him attention that he wants based on this Storify.
1920Soooo an extreme trans tumblrtard is attacking an MLP writer.
1921Why? Because she wrote an episode where a pony is impersonating a male character using a potion, which apparently make her transgender in his eyes. When the author denied it and claimed his agenda on it, he went mad.
1922Here is the trainwreck. Scroll a bit down and you'll see fifty tweets to keating rogers. I would say it's a troll given the typical Tumblrspeak language but he's been tweeting before for months and seems too specific of an attack for a troll.
1923Just another special snowflake attacking something popular so people will look at their shitty pages and they can feel like a victim complex crusader for justice or some bullshit. Surprised she isnt bitching that one of the princesses isnt trans to 'be truly equal'
1924Because they've got to pick apart EVERY single racial/sexual/social slight, it apparently takes them a while to watch through what takes the rest of us 22 minutes.... so forgive them if they've fallen a year off the pace.
1925Wait, I just actually finally looked at this. He's flipping out about an episode over a year ago?
1926I think we forgot that this person thought the writer was also racist:
1927Let's just look up the username to see how her proud black history was offend
1928“Yeah, I think horses can be sexy. Cartoons are gross though I'm not a pervert.”
1929Well, there was the time Tara Strong (voice actress of the main character) called out Chris on her Facebook page
1930Whatever you are perceived as: Racist, sexist, mysoginist, ableist, homophobic, transphobic, dudebro, white or privileged, for one label acquired, you get all the others, ABSOLUTELY FREE!
1931Tumblr, the land where "white" and "privilage" are the common insults. What did the autists on these sides have against calling each other a jerk?
1932I assume, at least. It could just be the work of their pea-brained minds not getting the hint to just simplify insults and stop acting like they're s-m-r-t.
1933..... ..... ..... ..... ..... ..... ..... ..... ..... .....? Wow. Mongolia.
1934OK, now - Just what the fuck does that have to do with anything involving ponies is anyone's guess, TBH with myself at least. And also TBH, something further tells me I'm not about to watch it to find out, either.
1935I may as well take a stab at guessing and say they introduce some new culture or something. My only question is this: Is there Genghis Khan? Did he threaten to kill all the horses and turn them into glue?
1936Like I said, I'm not really keeping up with this show - for what I think are good reasons, too. Like the realization that this Mongolia shit makes no goddamn sense, especially just hearing about it form someone else trying to be funny.
1937SJWs already moved on to Steven Universe months ago it seems.
1938Just watched last week's episode. Surprised the SJWs aren't outraged by it's regressive Mongolian stereotypes.
1939They've probably moved on since five seasons worth of shows means it's no longer sure-fire clickbait to attack it.
1940It really must be that all SJWs moved on from the show. I haven't seen them complain about anything related to it in a very long time. I think I heard a few mumbling that they didn't like all these new races being added in/looked at once.
1941SJW previously also stayed on Adventure Time besides MLP. But alas they both also go downhill.
1942It's fun to watch the ponies start another race war.
1943Would the only fun out of this is seeing bronies chimp out?
1944One of the funniest moments of my life was when my mom was reading a report done by Mia Farrow's son that he did about bronies. Except she pronounced it "bronies." That's something. When a nerdy subculture's autism levels are so high that even my almost 50 year old mother who has absolutely no knowledge of anything fandom related or geeky starts hearing about it.
1945I've seen it hypothesized, not without some credibility, that one of the reasons the furry community has such a dismal view in the eyes of the public is because it was one of the first fandoms to come of age IN the info age, so all it's dirty laundry was public from the get go, scaring away more moderate fans while giving the impression that everyone in it was some kind of freak.
1946Nowadays, they can be marginalized, but never quite eliminated as you could when all it took to effectively silence a fan that went bonkers was to kick him out of the clubhouse.
1947There were always weird Star Trek fans back in the day, it's just that the threat of having con security escort you to the door at the first signs of a sperg out or sexualy-deviant act kept the weirder ones in check or at least quickly excised them, I'm sure the producers were well accustomed to getting letters in the mail from rabid fans accusing them of ruining this character or that character or how a GREAT idea for a new episode would be if character "A" finally admitted they had the hots for character "B" and spent the whole 22 minutes in bed coming to terms with that....
1948It's sort of a thing that girls can enjoy boy things but not vice versa.
1949The smart thing to do would be to produce cartoons that both genders can enjoy, like what Nick and CN have been doing for years.
1950I don't know if this has already been dicussed because I haven't finished reading the thread yet but I noticed that little boys who like the show often get lumped with bronies, which I don't agree with. To me, it's no different from a little girl being into Transformers. I kinda hate that people get so judgemental over what kids like and whatnot. I just hope that these boys don't grow up to be neckbeard autist who leave MLP toys in jars of their cum but I guess time will tell on that.
1951There will always be that small % that doesn't have a "wait, I'm about to do what in the name of a CARTOON?" filter that the rest of us have, autistics almost have it by definition, but there's plenty of other neurotypical people that take their fandoms way too seriously. They've always existed, it's just harder to ignore them now that they have the internet to conglomerate around cross-pollinate their craziness.
1952There were always weird Star Trek fans back in the day, it's just that the threat of having con security escort you to the door at the first signs of a sperg out or sexualy-deviant act kept the weirder ones in check or at least quickly excised them, I'm sure the producers were well accustomed to getting letters in the mail from rabid fans accusing them of ruining this character or that character or how a GREAT idea for a new episode would be if character "A" finally admitted they had the hots for character "B" and spent the whole 22 minutes in bed coming to terms with that.... it's just that pre email and pre message board, there was no way we were privy to that conversation, so older shows look on the surface as if they were immune to such stuff, truth is, we just never saw it.
1953Like bronies. I'm sure the simple act of just putting a name to the phenomenon (calling them "bronies") kicked the whole thing off in huge numbers.
1954And without the internet, I think most people's weird inklings largely stayed dormant in their heads. (I mean, there were always dedicated fan groups and stuff. They didn't have the depth and specificity that internet fan groups have. You can find some weirdo who's into the exact specific weird fetish you're into.)
1955But to act like the show's to blame, or paint everyone who's a male fan as a proto version of Mr Wants-To-Marry-A-Pony-No-Really-He-Does isn't fair, like @TheMightyMonarch said, isn't it time we stopped with the need to keep boys from watching "girls shows" and vice versa?
1956I think the real "problem" is in the info age, despite your best efforts, you'll never be able to keep that 1% with a lack of grounding in reality from having a disproportionately loud voice, even if the show's creators and more mainstream fans ignore it completely.
1957@TheMightyMonarch was talking about was little boys, not adult men (correct me if I'm wrong). If you're an adult man and are a fan of MLP, and people in your life can find that out about you, you probably fucked up. People are going to be whispering about you.
1958I actually do believe a majority of adult fans aren't assholes, based on those I've met, but, it's by no means definitive. And the reason they aren't assholes is because they don't try to cram it down everyone else's throats, but in just browsing DeviantArt, I can see how it's not hard to have the opposite view.
1959Like, to me, the big line not to cross is telling other people you're into MLP.
1960But enough of that gay tolerance crap. Apologies if this video has been posted before.
1961It wasn't until Usenet that these people could actually get public recognition for their absolute autism, with Dennis "quozl" Falk being one of the worst early spergs, arguably personally responsible for getting Tiny Toons canceled. He invented being a furry, being a horrible furry, and being a horrible public furry.
1962I don't think most bronies themselves are assholes. They're just weird as shit (and frequently perverts).
1963Like, to me, the big line not to cross is telling other people you're into MLP. I've never met an adult who said they were into MLP and they didn't end up being a very weird dude (or girl).
1964Like all other things, being able to hide your power level and being able to take a joke makes a huge difference.
1965But enough of that gay tolerance crap. Apologies of this video has been posted before.
1966I think a lot of it was the 4chan factor mixed with bandwagoning. I think as more autist friendly options came into existence the whole thing slowly fell because of attrition. Only ones left are the ones that know how silly/autistic their secret looks and hide their power level, while the super spergs (as opposed to a power level monitoring regular sperg I guess) move on to whatever is the flavor of the month.
1967Eh, well, I think what @TheMightyMonarch was talking about was little boys, not adult men (correct me if I'm wrong). If you're an adult man and are a fan of MLP, and people in your life can find that out about you, you probably fucked up. People are going to be whispering about you.
1968Bronies earned their reputation. If you believe that a "majority" (which I seriously doubt) of adult, male MLP fans aren't huge dipshits, then you can campaign to oppose this negative stereotype of them. But it's going to be a serious uphill climb.
1969And it's a spergy thing to worry about anyway. If you're into MLP, you can just keep your interest secret. Problem solved. We're not talking about a deeply held racial or sexual identity. We're talking about a children's toy commercial.
1970Describes /mlp/ culture fairly well, I think. Love the sound-alike too.
1971I agree, but you have to admit, it's less weird for a five year old boy to watch it than a 30 year old manchild.
1972If that's the case, then I'm pretty sure that little boys are also not the intended audience for MLP.
1973I agree, but you have to admit, it's less strange to see a four year old boy watch it then a 25 year old man child.
1974doess he tell you about his pony obsession? what does he talk about?
1975Dunno man. I just kinda don't feel alright mocking a suicidal schizo guy.
1976Everything else is pure lolcow material, I must admit, though.
1977I haven't actually talked to the guy in forever. When you mentioned his name, I literally had to look through my stuff to remember him. He mentioned being a brony, but that's it.
1978*Edit: Forgot to say, look into what CatParty found that got archived. It should show. Just be careful since it is filled with things that furries and bronies will jack to.
1979These sort images are wrong in so many ways. The only people that would get off to these are bronies and furries.
1980If one wanted more proof besides a video, you have bronies jacking off to the underaged horses.
1981One time on reddit I had an argument with a brony who thought "I watch it for the plot" originated as a brony saying. As I've come to understand, "plot" is another word for a horse's ass.
1982Now that could just insults homosexuals (while also triggering SJW's) just like with that one image of crying furry in front of the lgbt flag. Bronies are terrible.
1983That was in the old brony thread. That image is not only worst, but there also existed another of a giant pony photoshopped next to the Twin Towers. Truly the autism of bronies knows no bounds in making cringeworthy photoshops.
1984knew you'd mention the Twin Towers one - that was my second choice too! Yeah, I know that "Warsaw Jews/Rainbow Dash" shoop is an old one - but short of some brony deciding to, say, "lighten the mood" of that photo of the South Vietnamese children suffering the effects of a napalm attack by adding Pinkie Pie, I don't think anyone's ever going to succeed in topping it...
1985Wasn't the nazi one the result of someone so autistic that they literally couldn't give a flying fuck about people's suffering unless ponies where there? I seem to remember seeing that in conjunction with a Deviantart post to that effect...
1986Yes, that's right: they were like "I'm a history student but this image did not mean anything to me until Rainbow Dash was photoshopped in" and someone else was like "you're a terrible history student"
1987also speaking of bronies yesterday I was at Cedar Point and I saw a middle-aged-looking lady, a little overweight but not a landwhale, wearing a t-shirt that said "the periodic table of my little pony" and had a periodic table with all the elements replaced with MLP. It looked like she was with a boyfriend/husband too and I was like "well then"
1988There were a shitton of dorky/fandom t-shirts everywhere in the park. MLP was probably the most ridiculous one I saw though.
1989Older women are probably a part of the previous gen fandom. The only unique thing Bronies actually brought to MLP fans was sexual deviance. All the drama and spergery has been there since the 80a from what I've read. Part of the reason previous gen fans hate Bronies so much is because they're basically them but younger and therefore stealing drama spotlight. And they actually probably had weird sex stuff from what little I remember seeing but were just less open, basically any fan has a bit of sperg in them regardless.
1990I have noticed less and less new shit about the fandom and show. Maybe all the spergs that can't hide power levels moved on.
1991I thought you guys would get a kick out of this. I love the deranged expressions.
1992This is what I would look like if I were in My Little Pony Friendship is Magic. It includes a fire mane and tail to represent my warm personality, my favorite fedora, a bowtie, and my necklace. The cutie mark would be a cross with a headset to represent both Jesus Christ and PewDiePie. My favorite person on Youtube and my favorite person in history.
1993Since a bunch of trolls can't read I'll clarify my last statement. Jesus Christ is my favorite person in history. Pewdiepie is my favorite Youtuber. I am in no way saying that Jesus is Pewdiepie nor am I equating them. It's like saying coke is my favorite drink and pizza is my favorite food. They're two different people so stop pretending that you didn't know and using it to troll me.
1994Also to all the trolls who are putting this up on 4chan and Reddit and Encyclopedia Dramatica: Stop! This is an early picture of mine and I've improved greatly from it. You've all had your laughs but what you're doing is art theft and it's morally wrong.
1995Doesn't help them escape from Poe's Law.. Maybe if it was actually funny, it would.
1996Man, I used to love shit like that. I recently went back to see if there was any funny new shit by bad artists and they all had moved on to other autism. Actually funny brony shit is like a shooting star to my jaded sense of humor.
1997I believe that artist is a parody. I've seen him drawing other stuff that parodies other sperg stuff. Like Dobson and GG
1998I still have one saved on my computer because I can't even begin to understand what's going on with it.
1999Good Godbear, I don't quite know why, but that drawing really disturbs the hell out of me... It looks like it was drawn by a schizophrenic!
2000Looking at it closer, it has a bunch of marks to show its talent. It must really be one hell of a mary sue recolor unless the artist tried to say "LOL, it's just troll art" or something like that. Even then, it's just terrible art still.
2001labyrinthine cutie mark covering most of its body... It looks like some sort of self-evolved codex created by a religious maniac of some sort!
200298 pages and no mention of Rainbow Dash at Auschwitz? Come on Kiwis, step up your game.
2003Yikes. That's embarrassing. Guess I need to pay attention next time.
2004For those who dont know, it is a series created by Peladophobian in youtube. For those who embrace Hitler like me, here is one of his videos:
2005Of course, like other things like Everything wrong with, Honest Trailers, React videos, etc, bronies always have its crappier rip offs.
2006Also, ill add on this: MLP analysis comunity. Serach it up.
2007That group would no doubt be crap. Why would one need to analyze the show beyond just saying it's a toy commercial? If it was for "scholarly reasons", what makes a toy cartoon like Transformers or MLP scholarly?
2008They want to make the show more than it really is.
2009More than once, I've heard that people say they enjoy the show for what it could be and not what it really is. Which seems pretty stupid to me...
2010wanted the show to be rather than what it was. Which is and was nothing worth analyzing. More than a few claimed they got "jaded" because of this. It's stupid.
2011Poorly controlled autism. Same goes for the people who apparently do the same thing with what little Transformers content there is.
2012More than once, I've heard that people say they enjoy the show for what it could be and not what it really is.
2013So I should go watch Paul Blart: Mall Cop 2 and enjoy it because it could have been Casablanca.
2014It's weird because these "analysts" all basically analyzed what they wanted the show to be rather than what it was. Which is and was nothing worth analyzing. More than a few claimed they got "jaded" because of this. It's stupid.
2015That about goes for most cartoons when you think about it. Shows like MLP don't need to have explanations for every damn thing that happens in it beyond "It's fucking magic."
2016Eh, I could say the same about a lot of analyses of popular media...
2017know certain things about the story. It's the same smug sense of superiority Tropers have.
2018You can and should. Most of the time it's just to pander to the audience's idea that they're "smarter" than everyone else because they know certain things about the story. It's the same smug sense of superiority Tropers have.
2019And most of the time it tries to force a bullshit, SJWist interpretation on the work... oh, I could rant about this for hours...
2020important details. That's when you should start speculating, just make it reasonable enough so that it can actually work within the confines of the world in question.
2021It's that MLP isn't one of those shows. It can get away with the "It's all magic" excuse due to the setting and all. True with most children shows, even if they don't have that excuse.
2022Very few brony analysts do that, but there is at least one. Most go to other TV shows.
2023Same here, though there's a few shows out there that really don't explain important details. That's when you should start speculating, just make it reasonable enough so that it can actually work within the confines of the world in question.
2024So just checking in, Bronies are still over analysing a kids show so they can justify watching a kids show as a deeper exercise in animation symbolism rather than just embracing their inner immaturity and accepting that they like something silly and childish?
2025No? Ok, I'll be over here listening to songs about dicks and unicorns like a mature adult then.
2026Nah, a lot of them ragequit ponies and went to doing it with other cartoons because they're edgy and have to burn bridges. Some went to SU, some quit entirely, but as a whole the fad is pretty much dying or already dead.

2036@Golden Compass, @yawning sneasel, @Feline Darkmage
2037On one hand this poor soul has just suffered a terrible loss. On the other, this guy seems to have the potential to go full SJW in the second half. I'm not sure if this belongs here, but my gut is telling me that something will come of this.
2038I remember seeing this video - it may have been on the old Brony thread - in which a Brony sits in his car and leafs through a MLP activity magazine aimed at little girls and fusses and gripes without end about how MLP is misrepresented philosophically in this magazine and how it is an insult to TRUE and HONEST fans like him. Does anyone have a link to this video?
2039But honestly, the thing I'm following now is a guy named Jerry Peet/Bhaalspawn. I forget if we had a thread for him, but the whole fake girlfriend that got arrested for CP after he was caught sockpuppeting as "her" on various sites was hilarious. Also, literally only had $10 in Patreon donations before he took it down. He also writes fanfiction about 14 year old girls fucking their sisters with dicks, despite saying that a younger character in the show having a crush on an older one was the worst, most gross thing he had ever seen. He also insists on his "original character" being depicted as a woman and gets pissy when people draw her as male.
2040Cartoons are being made less and less for actual kids and that's pretty sad. Lots of entitled man and womenchildren sperging.
2041It's more the fans' problem than it is the animators'. The animators are trying to deliver a show that they enjoy and that they hope others will enjoy. The fans treat it like it's high fucking art.
2042I miss when adults who enjoyed animation just enjoyed them for what they were...
2043The funny (and sadly obvious) truth in that situation is that even when they literally get everything handed to them on a silver platter, they'll still bitch about it.
2044Such as the 100th pony episode, which literally had every goddamn thing the fandom had wanted to happen:
2045*Derpy speaking (hell, she's talking for like half the episode) *Doctor Hooves being as close to a not-infringing expy of several Dr. Who regenerations...with a secret room that looks like a TARDIS!
2046*Steven Magnet, the sea serpent who showed up once in the pilot's second half five years ago.
2047*The closest thing to confirming the Lyra x Bon Bon ship (they say "Best Friends" while looking deeply into each other's eyes every 30 seconds) *Octavia and "DJ P0N-3" being housemates (yes, also a shipping thing) *ETC.
2048The actual episode's plot is laughably bad to the point of non-existence and it's unabashedly nothing but a 100% brony fanwank episode...and people just got furious at how the episode that did everything they wanted was actually kind of shit. The fact the episode was less then the sum of the parts in that regard because it crammed in so much fanwanky nonsense probably still isn't registering in most of their heads, either.
2049didn't want to be pandered to. They want the show to be made for kids and ignore them as much as possible, that's the show they liked. It's different with SU.
2050Oh, the adults and fans treating it like it's high fucking art are causing cartoons to be made for them instead of kids. I don't know why adults have to go after cartoons to begin with, I think it's some sort of Peter Pan Syndrome thing where they want DEEPEST LORE but at like, the level of a middle schooler. The people who make MLP are still pretty adamant about making a show for kids and apparently fans still are fine with that, but a lot of cartoon fans demand that a lot cartoons appeal to them and then they actually do.
2051It's sad because all this time, effort, and money is being put into shows that are completely unappealing to children just to get money from manchildren/womanchildren. I'v e heard some people talk about how it's only going to get more niche and adult-oriented, similar to how the anime industry is obsessed with producing samey shows to appeal to "rich" otaku (which is actually the Japanese equivalent of a these manchildren.)
2052to be honest, the fact that fandom actually managed to get a whole, 22 minute long episode devoted to their crazy shit at all (not even getting into all the bullshit that was actually in it) is pretty telling of just how far gone the show is from what it should be now that they're actually listening to the people who shouldn't be watching it instead of making it for the demographic it's aimed at
2053Why? Why didn't Dan Vs. ever take off, instead? That's what I ask myself to this day!
2054I don't know man. I just think it's going to get worse and more creepy. Eventually we're going to have a generation of show creators and animators that grew up with easy access to cartoon R34 who will be incapable of drawing anything with any sense of innocence or constantly will be sneaking in adult jokes or just completely not even trying to make something for kids.
2055We need a new Joe Murray or David Feiss or Tom Ruegger or even John Kricfalusi (when the censors could influence him) who know how to make animation that both kids and adults could find entertaining.
2056Steamboat_Bill Going to beat the record of the Robert E. Lee
2057But really, that whole episode was just "for fun" and the staff of the show wanted to do it all. That and Hasbro wanted to have fun.
2058really don't consider that to be a good thing nor do i consider it a good sign for the future of western animation
2059God, I don't want that to happen. I really, really fucking don't.
2060For the first 30 or 40 years or so of anime, most of the shows were produced for kids. Can you think of any anime produced for kids since, say, 2000? (Of course, there's probably a lot, but we never get them over here.)
2061Thankfully, most of the networks still have a demographic of kids, and that's probably going to keep the kind of show that's enjoyable to both kids and adults alive...
2062I don't know man. I just think it's going to get worse and more creepy. Eventually we're going to have a generation of show creators and animators that grew up with easy access to cartoon R34 who will be incapable of drawing anything with any sense of innocence or constantly will be sneaking in adult jokes or just completely not even trying to make something for kids AND adults.
2063We're just going to get a bunch of circlejerky cartoons that are for sperglords that no kid would ever be entertained by unless they are going to grow up to make/consume more of it.
2064Overall, I admit it would be pretty terrible if networks forgot what cartoons are supposed to aim for, TBH - as much as cartoons can be for everyone besides kids, IMHO (As a fan of this stuff, again at my age of 27-28, I can attest to that, even if just a little!) - yeah. Sometimes you have to draw a line and set some limits. If you don't, you end up with shit like this and people like this no one needs to entertain or give attention to - they don't need nor deserve it.
2065SHIT LIKE THIS is why I HATE PONYFAGS ever so damn much, the harder I think about any of this, for example!
2066*Apologies for the autism on display from me here*
2067i really don't consider that to be a good thing nor do i consider it a good sign for the future of western animation
2068Well it was just a one-off thing. And Western animation has bigger problems, primarily caused by increasingly targeting niche audiences. Similar to the problems that anime has.
206915 years from now, you're going to have a bunch of MLP/Steven Universe clones that are "for kids" but completely lack anything that an actual child would find fun or entertaining. And that's tragic.
2070As much as MLP is a big offender this isn't the first time something like this has happened, look at Disney, they're only now starting to get back to their success levels after their renaissance and that's because the kids who grew up on the sub par stuff are now trying to create something new and interesting again. I mean damn even MLP got successful cos the one who started fim was a fan of the older shows but thought that kids deserved better than what she had growing up. Animation is on the downslope but hopefully rather than stagnating it will inspire new creativity in the future.
2071...And anything less that those will be treated like shit, despite the fact that they will likely be better than anything SU or MLP could throw at us, now, only to be brutally ignored by these people. THAT is NOT a world I want to live in. I'll have an excuse to give up cartoons for good if that comes to pass - but by then, I'll thankfully, definitely, be too old for this shit!
