Holy shit it's Goose Man! When did you join the Escapist!?

Actually a while ago, I just lurk.

So how's the walrus pit?

You know where it is?
TELL ME WHERE THE WALRUS PIT IS.
WHERES THE WALRUS PIT.

Can you really "Leave" liking a show?

Anyway it's less refusal to join the fandom then it is refusal of the label, I love the show and will freely admit it, but I straight up refuse to call myself a brony. That ther term started on 4chan, and I'd sooner trust Satan himself then anything coming out of that vile pit of humanity.

Bronies have furry syndrome, where they think everyone gives a crap about what they do and believe.

We don't, go watch your show, we really don't care.

Okay.

I'm making Neon Genesis Evangelion compulsory viewing for all Bronys so they know when I say "Why are you jacking off over a comatose girl?" they'll understand what I'm saying.

Because she'd freak out if I did it when she was awake. Duh!

I taunt the bronies in my group with this speech. They know it's ribbing since, well, I'm giving a parody of my second alltime favorite movie here.

"Every brony that is not exterminated get's up and tolerates, THE PEOPLE IT TOLERATES GET UP AND TOLERATES!"

I'd groan at that, but it'd just be playing into your hands.

The fact that the majority of people in it are awful human beings. Also the fact that a bunch of better shows quickly followed suit.

You mean the entire brass section farting into their instruments? JK, poor joke
Though I'd agree the exclusion of key personnel in production was noticeable. (Lauren Faust leaving)

I take from it what I want and ignore or avoid what displeases me. Like everyone does.

And as my first year of liking the show starts to close in, I find myself fondly reminiscent of the times where this plague of childish be-foolery slowly crept in, viewed as an intellectual threat. I thought it impossible to fall as such as so many had.But with publicity so far spread across the web; my internal curiosity became overwhelming. I would watch it, pick it apart for the petty entertainment it was.
The fight turned out to be un-winnable. Cynicism and low expectations were quickly being subverted by a growing likeness. And it felt fun. I was running through the woods, evading enemy capture, narrowly darting past spotlights, duping patrols by hunkering in bushes. Slashing tires and breaking fuel lines to slow their advance. But more and more troops would arrive, patrols would become smarter, more tactful. They boxed me in, encircling me in a shallow valley. Surrounded on all sides soldiers closing in from every direction, I only had one choice to evade capture... I pulled the grenade from my pocket, pulling the pin I held the handle firmly. My eyes closed, I waited for the footsteps to get as close as possible before letting my grip slip.
Through my infinite misfortune the grenade was a dud. I was taken to their camp, and introduced... holy crap did I get off topic.

The show is fine, the fandom however can fuck right off.

If I didn't make the joke, someone else would have. It's also called "beating them to the punch".

I meant my joke was a poor joke, the farting thing. Your joke was perfectly appropriate. Cheer up man, It's an election year states side; you'll need some positive thinking.

Now be happy or I'll spam your inbox with Bobby McFerrin songs.(the previous statement being yet another poorly constructed joke on my part)

Ah, I misunderstood your post. My apologies.

Also, I'm not an American - we don't get to get rid of David Cameron for another three years -_-
