bronies in a nutshell
this thread is lolz
[QUOTE=ccg;32095397]I'd make some argument against this, but I probably do suffer from some sort of mental condition. So I won't say anything.[/QUOTE]
Case closed.

You have just seen a brony argue that Celestia, a fictional horse princess, is more deserving of worship to the [B]Christian God[/B], who is part of an actual religion and not a cartoon for girls.
I don't know what's stupid, you or that post.
I guess both.

I say the post.
This isn't the brony hate thread.
[QUOTE=SockFC;32101616]Bronies,
Nonbronies,
Romans,
Why are we fighting? Over one's opinion? Fetish? Hobby?
Let us take the time to realize that we have much better things to do. Obsessing is bad. Obsessing over a love is bad. Obsessing over a hate is on the same terms of loving it. Why can't we realize that we are just as stupid as our enemy?
We have a much bigger enemy to worry about: Something Awful, our common enemy. Can't we go back to the days of blindly hating something just because they are our self-proclaimed rival? Can't we go back to the days where the only argument was "my dick is bigger then your's!".
Let us unite.
As basement dwellers.
Together.
[/QUOTE]
You have the best post (for the most part)
Also, if men like a show for little girls that's fine. But if they become detached from reality and get fetishes etc. (which is actually uncommon for the most part I believe), that's not deserving of hatred. It's deserving of pity. It's sad to me when something like that happens.
It's terrible logic, but not worth a gigantic bump. I also suspect that to the creator of that image it's not so much about glorifying Celestia as it is about defaming Jesus/God. If it wasn't Celestia it'd probably be that trainowner guy from Thomas the Tank Engine or something.
Fuck i thought it was going to be a documentry...
Edit: You guys really should calm the fuck down about bronies and instead figure out ways to milk them of their money.
stop
just stop posting
everyone.
do you people seriously think that this gets you fucking [b] ANYWHERE? [/B] youre arguing over a goddamn tv show for suns sake. a tv show about fucking technicoloured [b] PONIES! [/B] why does everyone on facepunch feel the need to turn a harmless video thats funny into a fucking shitstorm? i mean, the only goddamn reason that mlp fans on fp defend themselves is because its [b] HUMAN NATURE. [/b] i fucking bet that if some douchebag made a rant on how half-life is a bad game, all of facepunch would be on their ass. do you honestly think that this is needed? you too, ponies. youre equally the problem as the goddamn people ranting about how much they hate the show. im all one for being a fan, but you have to learn the 'tolerate' part of love and tolerate. yes, you can defend the show if you wish. but be fucking respectful about it. you dont have to go and insult everyone who even say one single negative thing about the show. i mean, all that happens is that facepunch calls everyone who watches the show mentally unstable. fan fights back. other guy fights fan. and it goes on until a mod locks the thread. its a pointless cycle of hate, and it gets us nowhere. why dont we learn to fucking accept people for who they are? hell, even some ponies in this thread are going against that, and thats the entire message of the fucking show. so why dont we just calm our tits, get back to posting about how the video is funny, and accept that there are people who like and dont like the show? i mean, you find obsessive fans in everything.
but, its a lost hope that anyone in this thread will calm down. because i know fp.
so, thats just my two cents. dont get your panties in a bunch about it.
Bronies more like nasal monotone voice and awkward personalities amrite?
:wink:

Sorry for the bump but I have to say this,
It's not just Facepunch. It's all over the internet. We don't hate the show, we just dislike how "Bronies" throw it everywhere they go.
i saw a guy with a brony shirt at the mall
i had to force myself to walk away because i wanted to punch him in his face
What the hell? I saw this thread from the main page and thought the title sounded familiar, then I realized that it's [b]my thread from several months ago[/b].
How did this thread even get revived?

I have to ask, where do people go where it gets shoved in their faces? I hear stories of people saying that they visit places where there is pony content constantly exposed to them and I can't help but think "man, that is a place that I would love to be" but I can never find them.

IRL I saw two dudes in pony hats and one dude with pony keychains every single day at my college.

I can understand the hatred for someone going that far but I seriously doubt you would have punched him. Nasty stare at most.
It's equally retarded, no matter how much you think they deserve it, it's a shirt.
[QUOTE=Venezuelan;36011676]pony hats[/QUOTE]
For some reason all I can think of is Trixie's wizard/witch hat. How would this even work? Like, baseball caps with pictures on them?
ill say this
lets compare the mlp fanbase to the sonic fanbase or something
sonic and any other fanbase will have its weirdos but in a small portion of it
the mlp fanbase does have those weirdos except its a very large portion
basically anyone who calls themselves a brony are part of that portion
but dont think im saying EVERYONE who watches the show are bronies hell no i wouldnt accuse you of being one
[editline]May 18th 2012[/editline]
also once again it's only the bronies that we SHOULD despise it's not the show at all
i never see anyone bitching about dora the explorer in general or mickey mouses clubhouse or anything
and im sure the only reason people really like the show is not because of the story or anything
the show's creators like their fanbase to include their ideas and shit into it
hell they use the term bronies in their ads, they have derpy hooves in it, probably a lot more uninteresting uncreative shit

if only we could find some place... packed to the brim with pony content..
Why would you ever bring such a thread back to life.
Let it die. Let all pony threads die.

Like this but not crochet, looked all professionally manufactured. One was Fluttershy and don't remember the other
(note: never watched the show yet I know all the main characters by color scheme. That should tell you something about how much it's put out there)

~2 seconds in adblock and that goes away forever, avatars are not a legitimate case of something being shoved in one's face.

you realize you'd have to do that to every single pony avatar you see right
