Godot Posted November 17, 2011 Author Share Posted November 17, 2011 The point is even if you think a guy liking the show is stupid, it actually means something to me, so whether or not you think it's stupid, that's your own opinion. The fact that you insult a person who likes it is just cold considering that you can't judge anyone's likes just by a title. All I can say is that yes I like My Little Pony and I wear it proudly because you know what? The show makes me damned happy, and if you don't like that, you can just go cry about the fact that people like a show you don't think is "mature" or "manly." I can't believe I have to explain myself to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1 of the 7 Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 OP has some terms that, while possibly not intended to be homophobic here, often are. Not funny And too much swearing in both. The occasional curse for emphasis is fine. This is way over the top. But if you guys like it and it takes over the board, I guess I need to find a new place to be a Rush fan.

Kids get bullied for being open about it, which is why there are "Closet" bronies. Is that fair? You know, you might think you know all, but you really don't. You ignore facts just like any other bigot. Therefore, sir, your argument is invalid. There's a scale, from 1 to 100. On the left side, starting at 1, you've got stuff for little kids - like, three year olds. Sesame Street. Barney. On the right side, up at 100, you've got porn. Super hardcore porn. Stuff no kid should ever be allowed to see under any circumstances. My Little Pony, in any incarnation, is a fking TWO. Unless you're a father watching it with a little kid, there is no reason for you to be watching it. You say it makes you happy... you know what else makes people happy? Sex. And if you're an adult, you're able to have it. Go. Have it. Leave the little girl cartoons to the little girls. Because honestly, you're creeping people out. It's not normal no matter how much you want it to be or how many justifications you can come up with (sorry, the producer embracing a larger audience isn't valid. She's doing that because it means more money for the show. That's all.) Now, there's two more points here. First, is it right that kids get bullied over this? No. But it's understandable. They might as well wear a dress and makeup to school. Nobody should get beaten up over this, but at least *try* to be realistic here. Second, I swear to god if you honestly equate people making fun of bronies with bigotry, there's something broken in your head. Minorities have been spat upon, segregated and literally lynched in this country by bigots, and your love of a cartoon for little girls isn't in the same ballpark - it's not even the same fking sport, to borrow a phrase. Come back down to earth. It's a fine quality show. I've seen it. My 6 year old daughter and my 3-next-month son both enjoy it. And they'll both outgrow it, as they're supposed to. You should give that a try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah buddy http://www.reddit.com/r/mylittlepony/comme..._for_the_ponies You don't get it, and neither does that kid, who in the comments says he's 15. That kid's parents don't hate bronies or ponies or any of that. They hate that their 15 year old son, who should be growing up, is so in love with a little girl's cartoon that he was willing to leave home over it. Don't you see how fked up that is? This kid, this teenaged KID was willing to leave home OVER A CARTOON. That's not normal! That's not something to pity! He didn't leave home because his parents beat him, he's not leaving because of a drug habit or even for the love of a girl - he's staying at a friend's house because... he really, really likes My Little Pony. That's fked up, dude. No way around it. Sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My buddy Josh's parents force him into Christianhood. It's complete mental abuse, and my friend Josh is the most depressed kid around. And it's not just him, I know other people.
