Valve's Gabe is a brony

[Sandjube]

Nice beard man. I like it.

OT: No,fuck that, I give no shits about your show and if people like it or not.

 

[DRes82]

Well he would be a brony wouldn't he. He fits all the characteristics: fat and old.

I'm with this guy. He LOOKS like the kind of guy who would watch a little-girl's cartoon. This is what I imagine all 'bronies' look like. Fat with scraggly neck beards.

Wow, Steven Spielberg really put on weight...anyway yes, teh ponies, while the butthurt is hilarious it wouldn't surprise me if Gabe said this purely just to get under the skin of people who feel that what media one consumes is srs bsns. It amazes me to see just how firmly people from both sides get their panties in a twist over a bloody TV show.

Captcha: teh inter webs

Well spoken captcha, well spoken.

Well... I guess I'm not surprised at anyone being a brony now.

Gabe Newell is into MLP?

XD!!!

That's pretty funny.

Yeah, that was my reaction when I found out about it. I laughed. That's about it.

Maybe I should start keeping tally on how many famous or well-known people admit to liking MLP. Seems like one of those things to keep score of, but I can't be bothered.

I'm pretty sure this was put here solely for the reactions. You know, I didn't think it was possible to have such aggressive apathy towards something. It's kind of amusing.

This is news?

Okay. Stop the planet; I want to get off.

To be fair, it's in Off-Topic Discussion, not The News Room.

 

[DasDestroyer]

Now this means valve fanboys (whom are MLP fanboys) will be even more obnoxious about their MLP fanboyism, doesn't it?

No, all it means is that people will have another reason to throw the word "fanboy" around.

 

[Orks da best]

Well, good for you gabe. And good for you, all you other bronies. I may not like it, I may not even understand it, but you're free to watch what you want as long as it's not disney teen movies.

...

but mark my words! I will never lay eyes upon that show, I am pure cynic, muhahahaha! I will hole up in my fort with Dr cox, dr house, and francis from left 4 dead and you can send all the brony herds you want, as they will be torn asunder by machine gun fire and pure, bitter cynicism towards all your friendship and niceness! WE ARE BITTER! WE ARE GRUMPY! WE WILL TRIUMPH!

...um what does being a cynic give you? Happiness is far better than being a cynic, there already enoguh sadness in the world. Be a happy man.

And abuse the TF2 sprays with ponies on them more while claiming "Gabe Newall's a brony so it's k" then promptly talking about their 12 chapter long fan fictions about shipping rainbowdash with a rock or whatever you guys do.

 

[Orks da best]

Imagine if Valve made a My Little Pony game.

I'd be interested.

You, me, and 99% of all gamers.

 

[Evil Smurf]

I think we need to make a distinction here: Is he a brony... or does he simply watch and enjoy MLP? I mean he said it but it doesn't necessarily mean he is actually part of the Brony community.

This man makes a very valid point.

up till this point, I did not not know there was a difference

 

[JordanXlord]

Well
If this is true...
Gabe just got 20% cooler

Now then...

Come Gabe, do it, you know it'd be awesome

Anyway, I'll take this as a ponythread, and link this group for any person interested in other MLP related topics
http://www.escapistmagazine.com/groups/view/MLP-Friendship-is-Magic
Would recommend turning chat notifications off, as it is a very lively group.

God please no...Please no!

(i am a Anti-Brony)

Keep your Ponies out of my Valve games please...

 

[smithy_2045]

I think we need to make a distinction here: Is he a brony... or does he simply watch and enjoy MLP? I mean he said it but it doesn't necessarily mean he is actually part of the Brony community.

This man makes a very valid point.

up till this point, I did not not know there was a difference

The difference is how vocal one is about liking it.

 

[JordanXlord]

Well, good for you gabe. And good for you, all you other bronies. I may not like it, I may not even understand it, but you're free to watch what you want as long as it's not disney teen movies.

...

but mark my words! I will never lay eyes upon that show, I am pure cynic, muhahahaha! I will hole up in my fort with Dr cox, dr house, and francis from left 4 dead and you can send all the brony herds you want, as they will be torn asunder by machine gun fire and pure, bitter cynicism towards all your friendship and niceness! WE ARE BITTER! WE ARE GRUMPY! WE WILL TRIUMPH!

...um what does being a cynic give you? Happiness is far better than being a cynic, there already enoguh sadness in the world. Be a happy man.

But i am happy not watching the show...i am happy being a Cynic,

The difference is a completely arbitrary one that varies from person to person. Whether you consider yourself or someone else to be a brony or just a fan is entirely up to you. There's no concrete definition of the word.

Come now friend, I didn't say you had to play them now did I?
A few ponified versions of games wouldn't hurt you, since you don't have to buy them, it's not like he'll force you too

 

[Iron Criterion]

Well
If this is true...
Gabe just got 20% cooler

Now then...

Come Gabe, do it, you know it'd be awesome

Anyway, I'll take this as a ponythread, and link this group for any person interested in other MLP related topics
http://www.escapistmagazine.com/groups/view/MLP-Friendship-is-Magic
Would recommend turning chat notifications off, as it is a very lively group.

And this is why I'll never understand Bronies.

Say, I liked Game of Thrones - I wouldn't change my avatar and literally embark on a crusade to make everyone aware of and watch GoT. Bronies come off as a cross between man-children and cultist recruiters.

 

[DasDestroyer]

Now this means valve fanboys (whom are MLP fanboys) will be even more obnoxious about their MLP fanboyism, doesn't it?

No, all it means is that people will have another reason to throw the word "fanboy" around.

And abuse the TF2 sprays with ponies on them more while claiming "Gabe Newall's a brony so it's k" then promptly talking about their 12 chapter long fan fictions about shipping rainbowdash with a rock or whatever you guys do.

Those are either non-typical bronies or you're just making that up, probably the latter, because it's already "k" regardless of whether Gabe is one or not.
