Gonna try this just for the hell of it. Don't give a shit if it's MLP.
The amount of passion people give into this show is astonosing in my opinion. MLP turned to be from a simple joke topic with friends to what transformers would be if it was loved by 15 - 20 year olds instead. I think its pretty impressive. Also the game looks pretty ok, can't say too much now though.
I hate when people say 'everypony' makes me cringe everytime I read it.
well I am a fool for a good cart racing game

I cannot stand the pony fad, but to each their own, however, I was very impressed by the hair (I guess mane) physics.
That looks.. above the average fan-made quality.

I just don't get how people can be so devoted to a crappy children's show. Especially when they're the wrong gender and at least 15 years too old to be the target audience.

They're trying to "stick it to the man" despite the fact that "the man" would likely have never cared if they hadn't tried in the first place. In other words it's like Gurl Gamers. And I'm not saying that they don't really like it. Whether they really like it or not is irrelevant. They're using something they like to draw attention to themselves, and doing so is not neccesary (although the "leaders" of the brony community seem to want people to think so.)
[QUOTE=Sourcegamer8;34466464]gay porn?[/QUOTE] That was the first to go, heck that was really the only thing it was expected they'd infect.

Must this come up everytime there's a pony thread. People like it because art is subjective, I like it because they're cute, the writing is a lot better than a lot of stuff I see (not that I care too mcuh for writing, I often like stuff, only to be informed by almost everyone, that it is the WORST THING EVER DUDEWTFYOUDOINGWATCHINGDATSHIT". I mean hell, I hate the guys who are really out there about too, if they are wearing some bullshit shirt just to draw attention to themselves. I restrict it to backgrounds on my phone, desktop etc. People don't like things because anything, they just like it because they do.

[QUOTE=Sgt-NiallR;34468749]Don't even pretend you felt nothing watching that video.[/QUOTE] Funny, I didn't feel anything. At least nothing positive. I like some of the fan works to come out of the community - I enjoyed reading Fallout: Equestria, for instance, and I like I'mNotACleverPony's remixes. However, I hate the show and the vast majority of Brony-kind fill me with unspeakable loathing.

They're like parasites that feed on human souls (not all of them, just those who do stuff like that), I've seen it happen plenty of times.
How the fuck are they driving?

I fucking hate the people who use the word brony, stop that shit. You have no idea what it means.

There are an uncomfortable amount of people who like the fandom more than the show, which is where you find the pure bronies; the ones that are fucking annoying, and try to "convert everyone to the herd." [QUOTE=Artyom;34469613]Are you insane? Like, literally insane? Schizophrenia maybe?[/QUOTE] And then there are the pure anti-bronies, who are equally just as fucking annoying. I've started to just block them because they're not worth listening to.
[QUOTE=Artyom;34469613]Are you insane? Like, literally insane? Schizophrenia maybe?[/QUOTE] Probably, but it seriously has happened.

[QUOTE=asteroidrules;34470405][url=http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/metaphor]*sigh*[/url][/QUOTE] Right, but "They're parasites that feed on human souls" isn't a metaphor. It's a direct statement. What you edited it to ("They're like parasites that feed on human souls") is.
