Let me correct myself, then: appearing at Bronycon is more than enough to make an artist suck.

Oh hey.
Also; Oh no, Andrew W.K. is doing speeches like he always does whenever he's not playing concerts or getting wasted and having a good time.
No wait, he's still having a good time here because he's doing what he loves to do. He does it to get his opinion out, and he does it to make people feel good. He has always been about making everyone happy, and that's inspiring, or motivational at least.

Dude your last.FM profile clearly says that you idolize slipknot, a terrible band on the same level as nickleback or creed.

all in favor of official brodycon 2012 say yay

Bronies always jump to a "One of us"-behavior when they encounter someone famous saying "i watch mlp.". It was like this with Markus Persson, So it was with Gabe Newell and so it is today with Andrew W.K.
As if that makes the fandom any better or more appealing.

Are you implying that Nickelback, Creed and Slipknot are anything short of genius?
I like andrew's reason for sort of advocating this shit ("i wish society would stop puting gender labels on everything just let us watch mlp fuck"), but why go to bronycon i dont get it

And now I'm hungry. Thanks a lot, I'm going to make lunch.
[QUOTE=Jackald;37861905]I got no problem with people liking mlp, I just hate it when they never shut up about it and act like it's some sort of social movement or huge life-changing ideology.
It's not.
It's a cartoon.
If you like it, cool, if you don't, cool
So I sort of disagree with Andrew WK when he's saying the brony fandom is a "COUNTER-CULTURAL MOVEMENT AGAINST STEREOTYPES" cause it really isn't.[/QUOTE]
Honestly, I agree with you. But it's easy to think Bronyism is more subversive than it really is from the outside.
At the time I made [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p1HZp4ClFXY]the pony rap[/url] I thought Bronyism was all about rejecting gender roles and the idea that cartoons for girls should be necessarily worse than cartoons for boys. And I still think those are great ideas, and the creators of the show themselves have done some good work in the service of those ideas.
BUT I think the majority of internet MLP culture isn't really interested in that stuff--I've been on brony forums and they're just as sexist and homophobic as Facepunch was five years ago. The draw for bronies seems to be other, less noble stuff, which I won't get into right now.
Andrew always [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UUOvnbCtnVQ]tries to see the best in people[/url], though, no matter who they are--it's kind of his thing. I wouldn't be too hard on him for that.
ponies are gay

You are insulting the Homosexual Community with Ponies.
Stop it, please.
Jesus fucking christ this thread is just a big giant box fort with a few rainbows tucked inside it.
All threads relating to this damn show end up being that. :v I always see the exact same people in these threads too stirring up a shitstorm.

These kinds of threads are hardly about the video, it's always about the people related to said video.
Facepunch really isn't the place for bright and colorful cartoon horses.
He attended [B]Canterlot Gardens[/B] in the video, not Bronycon.
Canterlot Gardens is held in Ohio, while Bronycon is held in New York.
This terrible error needs to be rectified immediately.
Oh, and these guys are real silly and stuff, why can't we just watch the show and have normal conventions, etc etc.
EDIT:
They even had a damn panel where Tara Strong and a bunch of other voice-actors did a reading of S1E6 Boast Busters as characters they've played as well as impressions of celebrities.
They even cheered for them.

[quote]normal conventions[/quote]
I wasn't aware that there WAS such a thing, keep in mind that the kind of people who will travel across the country to go to a pony convention (or any kind of convention for that matter) may not be the most well adjusted individuals. Of course there are exceptions
You guys should really stop watching MLP
[QUOTE=Jackald;37868995]I agree, at the start of the whole Brony thing, there was a lot of genuine stereotype challenging and stuff going on, as well as just liking the show generally.
As the fandom's grown, I think a lot of furries have become fans for the porn, I think a lot of the "Waifu-having" crowd have gotten into it, and I think a lot of people just like it because it's popular, in a sort of hipster way, like how hipsters like Apple products.
Nowadays saying "I'm a brony" carries so many connotations that it's its own thing. People don't dislike Bronies for liking the show any more, they dislike them for all of the stereotypes associating with just being a Brony.
Anyway, I often get accused of stirring up shitstorms in these threads when I discuss this sort of thing, so i'm gonna go ahead and never post in this thread again.[/QUOTE]
Personally it's never been a cultural thing for me, I just happen to like a little girl's show about colorful horses. I'm not going to change the way I act because of that, I'm going to keep doing what I've been doing forever on the internet.
I have no interest in joining a social movement, all I want to do is discuss ponies with like-minded people.

At this rate, I'm going to regret getting these T-shirts if it means that they'll start relating far more to a weird, false revolution in society than the show itself and its (mostly) creative fans.
Everything has its thorns, but Iesus Nazarenus, Rex Iudaeorum, it's more like a bush of nettles than anything else.
It's gotten to the point where not only do you have to tell angry dislikers "Non, je ne veux coucher pas avec un cheval", but you have to tell the crazed fans as well.
So many people try to define themselves explicitly through being a brony. Why can't I be "me" if I'm a fan of a TV program and like to show it?
Goddammit.

I don't get this spaghetti joke.
My roommate can't stop laughing whenever he watches a video of an episode of MLP (or edit a song) in which they replace nouns with the word "Spaghetti" from Eminem's "Lose Yourself." What's the joke? It's instantly funny because you replace nouns with Spaghetti? Would me switching the nouns with the word poop be funny to bronies, too?

It's what falls out of your pockets during awkward moments. It's the stuff of dreams and rejection.
