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.

Wasn't sure if you were talking in a general sense or not (it's usually 50/50, so eh). That was just more for those who actually do.

You won't get any arguments about the obsessive kinds though. Most of us know how to keep our power levels relatively in check. But unfortunately, the loudest always receive the most attention.

Have you seen Regular Show? My brother always told me it was great but I never really gave it a shot until it was put on Netflix. I've only seen like 5 episodes but man it's pretty great. So far it looks to be as great of a comedy as Misadventures of Flapjack.

someone's pissy

Thanks for confirming my own point. :)

 

i didn't confirm anythign except your obvious lack of a sarcasm/humor detector.  Since when did you get so dull?

So suddenly when it suits you to be biased and bigoted it's humorous and I'm the one who isn't 'wit da flow'? Cute.

As much as I hate to admit this....I don't watch any other new shows (except for Game of Thrones when each season comes out on Blu-Ray).

Netflix isn't available available over here (not only that, but plebby internet), and I decided to forego TV over a decade ago. So pretty limited options :P

Perhaps the main reason I've gotten into this show like I have is because of its accessibility on Youtube.

I don't see the point of this show and how people got obsessed over it.

I've watched the show with my little sis. The show has merit, I totally see the appeal. Why is it cool for women to like men's cartoons but not vice versa?

Its okay to like it, but I thought "bronies" was the term referring to those weirdos that take it too far.

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.

It probably started out as someone trolling then some wierdo neckbeards thought it was serious and now they are basically outting themselves to the world as untouchable.

That's definitely how I see it.  Watch the show? Cool.  Dress up like ponies, go to conventions, or post in /r/spaceclop? Brony.

Most would probably agree that's it's just used as a general term for older fans. Though of course, not everyone will apply the label to themselves (I myself am highly indifferent towards it).
