One of my former students visited me this week.  He is a seemingly normal 19 year old American male, who loves rock music, SKYRIM, and science fiction - the sort of fellow who might be welcome on this forum, in fact.

Except that he has embraced Bronyism.

For those who are blessedly uninformed, "Bronies" are the otherwise normal, heterosexual males who have somehow been brainwashed into thinking that "My Little Pony" is a gripping, adult-oriented drama.  PONIES!!!!!   Can you just hear the testosterone being sucked out of the room??? :buggedout: :buggedout: :buggedout: :buggedout:

Not only that, he's proselytizing!  He had two of our football players - SIX MAN FOOTBALL at that - watching Ponies on his laptop!  I'm telling ya, the Oprah-zation of America is complete.

The episode I saw was pretty good.  I haven't made an effort to see any others, yet, though.

Are you kidding? I LOVE My Little Pony! I didn't know there was a cult devoted to it! Where do I sign?
I don't always talk about bad movies, but when I do, I prefer badmovies.org

What the hell is My Little Pony?
"The path to Heaven runs through miles of clouded Hell."

Don't get too close, it's dark inside.
It's where my demons hide, it's where my demons hide.

Again, we go to The Agony Booth for a review.

another forum I frequent has lots of male fans of the show with avatars and signatures indicating fandom of My Little Pony
Kubrick, Nolan, Tarantino, Wan, Iñárritu, Scorsese, Chaplin, Abrams, Wes Anderson, Gilliam, Kurosawa, Villeneuve - the elite



I believe in the international communist conspiracy to sap and impurify all of our precious bodily fluids.

My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic is for everyone of all ages!  How else do you explain a Big Lebowski reference?

Frankly, it's just freshing to see a show that is made for kids, but it doesn't treat them like idiots and family members can watch it with them.

We live in quite an interesting age. You can tell someone's sexual orientation and level of education from just their interests.

Bah!  I hate kool-aid! 

Frankly, your dislike towards the fans and the show itself will only get you this from me and the fans:

Must I surrender my soul to the Pony creatures then . . . should I embrace the darkside?
What will Jason Statham say?

teenage boys are watching "my little pony" on purpose?

*joejoe removes his hat and lowers his head in shame*


but, then again, it does remind me of the old joke about how riding a moped is like having bedroom  relations with a big girl,,,,

it's always fun untill somebody see you
when in doubt,  plan E.   EXPLOSIVES!!
