Yeah, just ask Carrot Cake. *rimshot*

Oh yeah, one more thing about the new episode. I guess now Derpy and Dinky are justified.

Teens React.

some hate on us, some tolerate, one thinks we're trolling, and another is quite possibly a brony now.
of course the time constraints means they were only going off of the opening theme and a couple captioned pictures, unfortunately.

+1 Known troll, +1 to the herd.
I'm not sure if they were serious or not, but I'm just going to go with what I seen.

Ya know, it just occurred to me that this episode is pretty much the FiM team's refutation of...this:

I kinda wanted to punch a couple of those guys in the face. Namely Adam and Ethan.

I definitely respect Isaac though. He thought it was pretty silly, but at least he was able to say, "Hey, whatever. You can like what you want."

I hated that (censored) who said she wouldn't date guys who were bronies and only liked "tough" huys.

seriously. Even if I weren't a brony, I wouldn't be tough by ant stretch of the imagination.
I liked that it got at least one in the herd. and maybe that troll will actually give it a shot and learn he actually likes it.

That too.

I think that was one of the most shallow and stupidly stereotypical things I have ever heard out of a person's mouth. -.-

she's young, give here time to realize how many "tough" guys can be jerks. then she'll be begging for a brony.

[rant]You guys are saying that like everyone who doesn't like My Little Pony is a troll. I don't like it not because I thought it was too girlish or whatever, I just didn't care for it. Yes, I watched the whole first season and I am not watching the second one. Also I don't go around spreading hate messages to bronies but when something is literally filled with pony pictures it gets very annoying. Being a fan is OK, but some people need to regulate themselves and not talk about it constantly.[/rant]

Posting ponies in pony threads is OK, just not outside where it is completely off-topic, unnecessary.

I think you missed my first post where I stated that the guy who didn't like it, but had the good sense to let bygones be bygones, was perfectly fine in my book. >.>

Sun Jan 15, 2012 9:46 pm

and when we say troll, we mean the guy who actually believes that every guy who likes MLP is a troll and said he'd actually start posting ponies just to be a troll himself.

I think he secretly likes it and the whole "troll" thing is a neat little cover-up 8D

Sun Jan 15, 2012 9:59 pm

I think he may start to like it eventually, but I don't think he actually likes it yet.

KJOokami · Post by **KJOokami** » Sun Jan 15, 2012 10:03 pm

Yeah. Honestly, I bet more of them would've been less harsh if they'd played a scene from the show, rather than the intro. Because the intro is probably the most stereotypically "girly" thing about the show. I'm not sure if it would've changed any of their minds about liking it, but it might've made a slightly better impression on some of them.

Pony Stockholme syndrome is what started the internet phenomenon in the first place.

I wanna punch half of those guys in the face. And some of those girls.

only slightly, but I'm talking about the stereotypical tough guys she seems to think she wants. you can stereotype while referring only to stereotypes.

Yes. But she was directly asking for a stereotype "tough" guy. Namely one who is "manly" enough to not watch MLP and who has nice biceps (if her flexing were any indicator).

The "teens react" video annoyed me a bit.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FzozSSGETJo

not because some of the dislike of MLP, they can hate it all they want,
but how hard some of them where bashing and assuming people who watch it are out of there mind.

I think if that "teens react" showed them some of the more adult jokes or some of the cool moments of the show, they could have been more receptive. I also skip the opening everytime I watch it.
Besides they were too narrow minded towards us. If they didn't like the show because they watched it and they still didn't, then it was okay for them to say "I don't like it, but if others do, fine."
As it was stated only one guy, at the show, said that.

So I'm not allowed to dislike this unless I watch it?

I'm just waiting for the day when a nihilistic villain pops up on FiM and starts spouting off junk like that.

Ponies have their place. Where it gets out of hand is when they invade completely unrelated topics for no reason other then some bronies feel they have to 'spread the word' like it's the second coming. But both sides really can be pretty immature about it, with trolls trolling pony fans and pony fans trolling non fans.

Let's not go down this path to pointless bickering. Everyone is entitled to their opinion and it is not necessary to belittle someone for holding a different opinion than you.

I think you didn't understand my point. Judge something to be bad or good WITHOUT even knowing it, it's stupid. People can say "MLP: FiM sucks" if they don't like the show after they watch it.
Have you ever heard of the expression "Don't judge a book by its cover"? Or is judging people or things just by the way they look like is now "cool"?

Ponified remake of the matrix?
I'd watch it.

I have just discovered that the most recent My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic episode has a family whose last name is Cake.

This pleases me.

Very much.

Especially since none of their first names are Honey or Vanilla.

Mon Jan 16, 2012 2:40 pm

well Mr. and Mrs. Cake have been in the series for a while.

As main characters in an episode?

Anyway, I like Pinkie Pie in this episode for the most part (except where she kicked Twilight Sparkle out), which is saying something because I usually have not liked in her in most of the recent episodes.

Post by **Sleet** » Mon Jan 16, 2012 3:02 pm

Not really, they've just been Pinkie's bosses and the people you get baked goods from.

I liked when she kicked Twilight out! It was kinda funny how they faked you out and made you think Pinkie was about to get some help.

Tru fax.

I was thinking, "Oh, and here's the part where Pinkie's friends come in to help her and save the day!" Nope. Chuck Testa. Pinkie doesn't need your peddling condescension, Miss Sparkle. Now, if you please, this is MY episode. :p

Brace yourselves. Thousands of Maclee ship fics will appear after the Valentines episode.

Kyderra · Post by **Kyderra** » Tue Jan 17, 2012 8:45 am

I really liked the latest episode,
It was great the see Pinkie Pie be get annoyed and aggravated about something.
but at the same time the motivation she put in it and hard work payed off.

there was a small grudge I had about part where the baby used magic to fly around.
Not that I mind the baby's magic, but using magic to let a unicorn fly around bugs me.

I'm going to chalk that up to the baby only being able to do it because he's too young to know he isn't supposed to be able to.

Also yes, thousands and thousands of Cheerimac fics will soon descend upon us!
