龜 has heretofore been one of my favorite posters but not any more.

I can't stop thinking about that little lick this dude gives the horn at the end l;aksjdf;lkasdjf;aisdug;osidfbjal;kdjg;lksdj;lksakdkdkdkdkdkd

I would rather watch Guy Fieri tongue a waterfall of sparkling water FOREVER than have ever watched this dude fellate a unicorn horn.

it's some kind of awful achievement that this thread continues to plumb new depths of horror even after all this time

i saw that episode! he's totally right that it's about communism.

Yeah, at times I've contemplated starting a thread about right-wing nods (or messaging) in kids cartoons. Check out Scooby Doo's "Ernesto", a hypocritical environmental protest leader:

my friend's 16yo nephew is a (self-described) brony

he's had some family/emotional/etc issues, so everyone's just happy that he's into something 'social' and that they know what to get him for xmas

i was walking around wicker park in chicago sunday afternoon when a guy yelled at me "hey! did you see there was a PIG over there?" and sure enough when i rounded the corner he was motioning towards i found a black potbellied pig in a harness and leash held by a 15 year old boy in a Brony t-shirt

the kid explained it was the pig's birthday and his parents were inside buying it a cupcake

Is this real life?

Jeff, Thursday, 9 July 2015 14:35 (eight years ago) link

was it this pig, or are there two pigs that get walked around chicago parks on a leash?

this isn't specifically brony related (I guess there might be some overlap between bronies and NAPPA members), but what does 'forking' mean in this context?

That's the part you eat.

It's forking delicious.

can't imagine the pig being so receptive to hugs and booty scratches after you've consumed its midsection

soref, Thursday, 9 July 2015 15:19 (eight years ago) link

my 10 year old is a bronie. i'm hoping he grows out of it like that time that he loved the band Kiss. i kinda can't stand watching the show.

scott seward, Thursday, 9 July 2015 16:03 (eight years ago) link

i generally can't stand it, but i liked the recent episode w/ the wedding w/ the sequence w/ the dj pony and the violinist

Yeah if that's the best it gets I don't think I'm ever going to be a brony.

the joke should be over once the kid is eaten. (chap), Thursday, 9 July 2015 16:13 (eight years ago) link

Maybe at the end they are flying off to perform at a party a bit like this:

xxp: the first two seasons, before lauren faust left the show, are the best.

A student in my reporting class wrote her story about bronies at Supercon two weeks ago. While editing I didn't hide my laughing.

The burrito of ennui (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Thursday, 9 July 2015 16:42 (eight years ago) link

My cousin grew out of his brony phase and both him and his little sister refuse to even watch the show anymore.

I know he expressed disdain for the newer seasons but I'm hoping that's not the main reason he quit being a brony. Honestly, from the handful of episodes I've seen, the only thing that made the Lauren Faust seasons unique was the pure Disney magic vibe coming from all the core morals and friendship that it preached. They ran out of core morals for the later seasons. And all the glitter had settled.

The English department at my university /hates/ bronies. A few of them took some fiction writing classes a couple of years ago and wrote nothing but MLP fanfiction. They actually managed to recruit more bronies through those fanfics.

It was a strange time.

Oh man, that is great/terrible.

Yknow 50 Shades was originally a MLP:FiM fanfic

Just sayin

demonic mnevice (Jon Lewis), Thursday, 9 July 2015 23:03 (eight years ago) link

I got handed a pass for a signing with some of the MLP voice actresses at Comic Con, so of course I had to do it. There were a lot of sad bronies in the line.

The actress on the right is Ashleigh Ball, who does Fluttershy and a bunch of others. I'm not sure who the woman in the middle is; I think the dude on the end is a writer.

there are so many fake news websites now - can the market really support so many?
