The show has effected my life quite a bit since it was the main thing that made me start going on the Internet more than I already was which has brought me closer to several people I know in real life, ones who like the show and ones who despise it, when before I was never even talked to them or really acknowledged them.

Honestly, I don't watch much in the way of TV, but I love the show. It taught me to be a calmer, happier person and to tolerate those around me a lot more. Bought figures and stickers and grab bags and all sorts. Contemplating a t-shirt, any suggestions?

Shameless self-plugging, Calbeck? How could you stoop so low?
Tsk tsk... if I were plugging, I'd've put in a link to the novel! -;)

Due to the influence of bronies (aka the new furries and yes I know that you aren't all like that) I cannot watch the show as I don't want to be lumped into an insane, horrid mass as the rest of them have just for liking a show.

What I find odd is how the bronies seem to spread into everything like a cancer. Gaming forums? Bronies. Casual conversation at the dinner table about modern politics? Bronies. DnD games? Bronies.
Yes, it's almost like the show is popular or something, and people like to talk about things they enjoy.


Oh, new page. Escapist MLP user group link:
http://www.escapistmagazine.com/groups/view/MLP-Friendship-is-Magic
I recommend that anyone who joins uncheck the "Chat Notifications" option when prompted, as the group chat tends to be quite active.
Yeah, but it's the fact that they seem, at least to me, to be talking about it EVERYWHERE. Gaming forum? Time to talk about ponies! Political forum? Time to talk about ponies!

Call me weird, but I like it when things stick to a certain genre. Genre mixing just kinda...irks me.

majority of the voice actors in the show?

yea, they also did voices for other shows.

Just look up Tara Strong.

So he could be there for the ponies, or he could be there for the voice actors.


OT: I remember the day Ponies invaded 4chan, the hive of scum and villainy it is, and the resulting flame/ban wars.

Then bronies.memebase.com came to be, and people rejoiced, a place to keep the bronies together and a place for bronies to hang out at.


A few days ago I decided to check out /k/ to see what's been going on, the usual "I want a $150 gun" 'lol, get a mosin naggant poorfag!', but I saw something up on the board directory.

/mlp/

now, I know 4chan, I know the dumbasses that post there, I know what to expect.

I was expecting porn, guro, hate threads, wannabe /i/nsurgents, the normal for a board that isn't /b/.

First thread I saw? Post your epic pony pictures here! And yea, most of those pictures were pretty boss.

Other threads?

Fluttershy is next to you, wat do.

check out my doubles!

post your oc ponies.

the list could go on, but the one thing I didn't see was the usual hate that other boards get.


Ladies and Gentelmen, 4chan, the bastards behind nearly everything that could be considered bastardy has a board full of love and tolerance.

mind. fucking. BLOWN.

I mean, I even tried to troll them to see what would happen, one thread in particular was asking why artists felt the need that their humanized interpritations of the mane 6 were correct, the main argument was black rarity.

I planted the bait, "Because rarity is worst pony".

nothing, for two hours I watched that thread, various attempts at trolling and none took the bait.

I was shocked.

4Chan, now with 20% more love and tolerance.

so, yea, that kind of changed my whole outlook on the denizens of that awful website.


[sub]also, supposedly season 3 will be geared more towards fans, but that doesn't change the fact that Rarity is worst pony[/sub]
HA HA HA HA HA HA!
I really don't mean this to be harsh but you honestly have no idea.

I do too... but please don't say it too loud, the internet might hear and ruin it aswell.
Sorry mate but AT doesn't exactly have a good standing fandom either. Did you ever hear about the phone in opinion thing that mathematical had about PBxMarcy being legitimate.
The only ongoing show I've seen in this thread without a completely deplorable fandom is RS, because God knows that Gumball fans have the crazy (I love Gumball but I try to stay away from discussion as much as possible).

OT:
Right now my pony levels are at 0 and I don't see that changing soon. Its just not really my thing...

Sorry, what was this thread about, I got distracted skyping my friend about ponies? (technically we were making fun of gens 1-3, but that still counts). So yeah, it's certainly invaded my brain. Best invasion ever.

I have literally no idea what you just said. But yeah I'm sure there are a lot of Adventure Time nuts out there, I'm just glad they are not in my face all day.

Now...I have a question...

If someone were to do some crossover of Adventure Time and MLP:FiM, would the amount of supposed concentrated awesome from that cause a singularity that causes the whole of the multiverse to collapse in on itself?

If so...excuse me one minute... *goes to scrap a fanfiction plotbunny*
