A thread to discuss My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic and the tie-in media.

All of the usual forum rules apply. In addition, please remember that the thread is discussing a kids' show, and it's primarily focused on the work itself, not the fanfic — in particular, we don't want to see lewdness creeping in.

I don't know WHAT the Hell happened (I blame shenanigans) but we're going to start from scratch. Post your feels for this awesome show again! Naow!

You know what else is awesome when you like it? Just about everything. Sprite, toothpaste, ponies, Hey Arnold, orange juice, orange juice/toothpaste smoothies.

As long as it's dark chocolate, I'll take it.

But not too dark. I once had some fancy 85% cocoa chocolate, and it tasted like just biting into pure cocoa powder.

I got a ton of chocolates in the freezer, filled with marshmallow, strawberry fluff, rice crispies, butterfinger, white chocolate covered strawberries, and even white and milk chocolate dips!

CHOCOLATE!!!!

Still don't really get it. Why someone else opinion would, in itself, alter a work.

"It's not what you said it would be." Is something to pin to the person that said it, not the work itself. I get if ti's actual, factual lies, things that you can point to and show as, observable fact, they are wrong, but when all you are getting is opinion....

Just don't get the whole Hype backlash/aversion, any of it. What matters is the work/story in and of itself.

so, I actually met another brony at work today. a pegasister, to be exact. This girl, late teens it looked like(though I'm terrible at judging this kind of thing) was with her mother and wearing a purple and greed hoodie. But when she passed by me, i noticed that it wasn't just any purple/green hoodie, it was a Spike hoodie. So I ask "Is that a Spike sweater?" and she said "Yes. Do you watch MLP, too?" I said yes, then she turned to her mother and said "See, mom, I told you we're not that uncommon!"

so then she asked me if I had seen today's episode, which i hadn't, and then started going on about how awesome it was.

...it was really weird talking about mlp with another person IRL, out in public. like, actually speaking about it instead of typing.

that being said, time to watch the episode.

Toothpaste smoothies? Anyway, I've had orange toothpaste and it was nasty. At first I thought I might have been picky, but one of my friends borrowed it and he said it was terrible too. Not that I had to suffer for long since the TSA confiscated it only a couple days after I got it.

I don't get it.

I'm guessing it was originally buttfinger. That's the only missing er that makes sense.

...it was really weird talking about mlp with another person IRL, out in public. like, actually speaking about it instead of typing.

I see people with brony related tshirts from time to time. It's not that common, but it's not like it's unheard of either, so I odn't really consider it anything special. I did see someone with a giant Kyubey plushie backpack, which I thought was pretty unusual (the plushie part, not being a fan of PMMM).

Of course. The perversion of meaning was entirely in my head. But I had no choice but to share it with you all because I knew it would enrich your lives and minds.

wow, we immediately start out with a song?

wait, Twilight specifically said "Sing a solo" like that?

...yeah, thanks pinkie, way to encourage her.

omg, rarity actually hit her with a rolled up newspaper!

"Pardon me!?" that line was pretty amazing.

stage fright? ya don't say?

yes, big mac singing!

GASP!

oh wow, it's actually Flutters that offers a solution?

and of course, the two new ponies don't follow her.

omg, I am loving this jungle beat background music zecora has.

alright, poison joke returns!

oh gods, Angel doing puppydog eyes?

whoa, who's the big pegasus and his little flittery filly?

AJ is not amused at the cats.

GUMMY NO! NOT THE TURKEY!

hey, this song is pretty good!

omg, those colts and fillies just stole all of those animals!

oh wow, another cutecenera?

jeez, calm the hell down flitter filly.

fluttershy hanging from the ceiling? there's still a bit of bat in her, I see...

Spike is a bouncer?

Busted!

...ok, that :"conversation" between Aj and Mac was the best thing ever.

OH GOD PINKIE CAN CLIMB WALLS!

damnit Pinkie!

wait, there's no way they could actually hear flutters from that far off!

...wait, a seal!?

"Hiding from these fears means you're only hiding from your true self. It's much better to face those fears." Fluttershy confirmed for having faced her shadow and gained a persona.

very good episode! We actually had Mac singing for a bit, and flutterguy!

Well, this is a new one. I found a customer service specialist level 2 position that requires four fucking years of experience. Those usually require- you know- two years experience, maybe three.

@CDRW: I was going to be mean and suggest "A mutant with 1,000 hands", but I'll relent. How about a picture of Pinkie making a "Is your refrigerator running?" prank call? I'm writing a fic about it and I could pretend that it's fanart. tongue
