Or is it some actual new fetish? I go on a few forums where beta/cringe threads are kind of frequent, and some of these photos with socially awkward people photoshopping my little ponies in with them is just plain weird.

No more weirder than those kiddie-looking cartoon girls better known as anime. But, if that's what they like, who am I to to say otherwise?

I don't like the show, but I don't care as long as they're not annoying and sh*t. I enjoy Regular Show, Legend of Korra and Adventure Time so I would feel like a hypocrite if I had a problem with them liking MLP.

Oh and by the way, Regular Show is way better than any other kids show on right now.

I've only watched one episode.  Definitely felt like the old school cartoons of the 90s, with some hidden adult humor in it.  I don't really have the desire to  watch it regularly though.

I think it's because of how creepy the damn things look. It's the stuff of nightmares.

Now that was scary.:?

I can see multiple reasons for getting into it. In online gaming it might be amusing to take the brony persona, as it might humiliate other gamers to get there buts kicked by a brony or bronies. Then again I imagine like many people that engage in furry fandom, the vast majority (like 75%) of them get some kind of sexual fetish for it.

Ahh, the spaghetti threads. But I really don't know with some of those photoshops... Some could just be 'avin a giggle, and some could really just be that awkward.

It's not really anything new, though. People have been doing this kind of stuff for years.

Ponies are just an extra addition.

They are like furries, they deny it being just a sexual fetish, because they actually enjoy the show, but in the end they end up masturbating to fan fic of naked horses.

It gets wayyy better. The last two episodes were some of the best. They are called "Carpet Diem" and "Boyz Crazy" if you want to check them out. :)

They are pathetic. They are grown men who like a show aimed at 8 year old girls just for the attention they crave for being "different". One only needs to see pics of brony meetups, or watch some videos to see exactly what i mean.

I actually agree a little. Bronies are the only people who show off that they like a children's show. Nobody cares, they just make it weird by bringing it up so often.

That's what I'm thinking.  Why be such an attention-whore about it?  Just like your cartoon.  No need to show everyone how obsessed you are.

You do know that 90% of these threads are actually made by those who aren't even fans of the show? But as for some of us showing that we like it...

>impying we care that no one cares (this seems to be where most make that mistake)

Most will choose to display a certain thing because it's something they either just like or enjoy.

Same deal for pony fans. And if merely just showing that we like it means that we're after attention, then we may as well start posting on anonymous boards, because we're all attention seekers then.

The difference is, most anime is aimed at teens and adults. And for the record, I don't watch that many anime. Only a couple Gundam + Bleach and Naruto.

Infatuation with a cartoon to the point where it's all you think about is creepy. There's a difference between watching an anime and watching/breathing/eating/$hitting the stuff.

And don't lie, for a lot of guys of both shows it's all about the nookie fantasies.

I totally get that. Sigs are no big deal. My sig is from SpaceChem because it's an amazing puzzle game and very few people know about it. Same kinda deal with my avatar and REAL. I'm more talking about the bronies who bring it up all the time.
