I might as well come out with it, im a Brony

I dont even know why this appeals to me so much, maybe because im so miserable and this is just so opposite.


Also dash is best

Welcome to the Herd, Stalker.

Thanks man, so how did the rest of you all end up here?

I have only seen up to ep 10, and a bunch of fanmade stuff (epic pie time had me laughing for 10 mins straight)

I used to watch fosters a long time ago, I still like to catch some shows from long ago, ( me and a friend were discussing old episodes of Are You Afraid of the Dark, now THAT was good ol' 90's TV)

This show is just cool in some weird way, I dont know if its because my clinical depression along with all the other mental crazyness I go through. It just makes me feel kinda better.

I had a kinda odd journey to the show. It mostly involved seeing references to it all over TVTropes and forums. Wondered what all the whoo-ha was, but never really had any animosity or interest. Just ignored it for a while, then finally said "Hey, let's see what the big deal is!"

I saw it on the internet, and my friends were already watching it. It was only a matter of time.

I find it funny how I have converted people, literally, at the point of an Imperial Guard Army Bayonet!

Only ten episodes in eh? Just wait till you get to season two. Overall I think it's even better than season one.

P.S. Dash is only the best pony when it comes to fan art. Pinkie Pie is Clearly Best Pony overall and anyone who says otherwise clearly just made an odd typo.

Pinkie Pie?

That's a really odd way of spelling Luna.

While we are at odd typos:

That HAS to be the strangest spelling of Fluttershy I´ve ever seen

Pinkie is undeniably hilarious, but for me she works best in moderation. The more surprised I was when I actually really liked the latest episode. I have to admit that I would have reacted exactly like Cranky, though.

That being said, hurry up with the Fluttershy episode, dangnabit. I mean, uhm, if that´s ok with you?

See what I mean? Really weird typos.

Spoiler:

I see your .gif and raise you a .mov

Gif? Was mine supposed to be animated? I really hate my phone sometimes...

Yeah, her eyes are like pulsing....


So a rather strange thing happened last night...

I was on facebook, and apparently someone made a memes page for my school... While people were getting mad at "unfunny memes" a few people started a chat with the entire group about ponies... Apparently there are at least three bronies on campus (not including the two that live on my floor).

Aduro wrote:See what I mean? Really weird typos. I mean, why can;t anyone spell Twilight Sparkle correctly?

I know, right?

How'd I get here? Hmm... Memebase had a lot of Pony jokes making the front page a while back and I thought "Hey, this is pretty funny, I should check the show out." It took both the Pilot episodes to do it, but then I was there, on the good side of things.

As to why it appeals to me? amongst all the blood, gore, misery etc of what I do, I find it to be a great antithesis to everything else, and it's a quality show. Better than 99% of what's shown on TV IMHO.

spending time on twitter.

My friends became bronies, and i was interested to see what all the fuss was about. My brother and I started watching the episodes, and were instantly drawn in.

Oh, as for how I got into pony, it was mostly just seeing a lot of references to it around, including the thread/threads here that just wouldn't go away. Eventually I checked it out and decided I liked it.

Same as Audro, just that i started off a hater on another forum and was eventually converted.

I got into MLP because, well, the redshirt at my local GW talked about it, then I was going to be away from home for 4 nights on business, was not sure of I would have internet. So I bought season 1 on itunes and watched it all over the course of those 4 days... And I was hooked.

welcome to the herd ^_^ /)

I got into it via talking to my mates about silly ideas for armies, I suggested a MLP army and while looking for models to make said army I got the urge to watch the show. 22 minutes later I'm a brony ^_^

oh and I like how none of you can spell rainbow dash

I'm really surprised nobody seems able to spell Rarity correctly. It's not that hard, guys.

All ponies are best pony...

Spike is best pony!

Also, we seem to repeat the same conversation over and over again.

well, at least not until we have to wait for season 3 and need something to keep the thread alive

We wouldnt have to keep having this conversation if you all would stop getting it wrong. Pinkie Pie is Best Pony. Drink the "kool-aid"! Drink it!

So I'm on the episode with Flim and Flam, and haven't gotten a chance to watch it; how many more episodes do I have left? On #15.

Only a few I believe.

Sad :( I welcomed them back when I first started watching the second season again.

We still getting more, or is it kaputskied?
