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!

Why would you avoid April Fool's day pranks? Where's the fun in that? (Well, unless you know of someone who intends to do actual harm with their pranks, but that's a different story.)

I'm calling him Shadey.
I'm Slim Shadey, yes, I'm the real Shadey. All you other Slim Shadeys are just imitating. So won't the real Slim Shadey please stand up? Please stand up. Please stand up.

How come Lauren Faust's other cartoons never attracted such a large and devoted fanbase as MLP:Fi M? They were all certainly very popular, but none quite as much, I think. And I think they were all at least as good.
I genuinely think the fact that this is My Little Pony, and not some other franchise, contributed to FIM's popularity. Because people's preconceptions of prior generations played a big role: People who already liked MLP checked it out. People who didn't like MLP checked it out anyway because of Lauren Faust's involvement, or just to spite Armin from Cartoon Brew, and because their expectations were so low, they were pleasantly surprised by how good the show actually was. And the memetic girlyness of the franchise made the existence of the Bronies so much more attention-grabbing than nearly any prior Periphery Demographic, giving the show more free advertising.

Yeah, I've never seen a harmful April Fools prank. And it's not like anything on the internet is going to hurt you. You're just missing out on the fun.

My brother in law once fired someone as an April Fools prank. The person was in on it, but the rest of the office wasn't.

Did the person who got "fired" have a day off or something?

Ok, we need Sane Pony Thread quotes right? Here are some of my proposals. Who's responsible for uploading them?

Pumpkin probably chewed up Boneless beyond repair.

Uploaded 7th chapter of my Spider-Man fanfic, so feeling mightly exhausted.

You're gonna have to be more specific.

Welcome to the thread!

Youtube will have it up.

I just changed my wallpaper thanks guys!

So not exactly what I had on my mind

I was pretty consistently surprised this episode, something that usually doesn't happen with this show.

That's now canon. To me.

Well, I'm going to bed now. See you tomorrow.

Around half of those still sound like normal IPT.

"Welcome to the thread" sounds like a good precursor, though.

I'll let CDRW figure that out, as it's technically his tumblr. Also I have to sleep.

I once read in the paper about some unknown person (they never mentioned who) contacting the paper to get someone else's obituary put into it. Thing was, that person was very much alive and part of why the news made the paper is because that person woke up and saw said obituary. Apparently, the parents got a bunch of calls for condolences and stuff too.

@ Kyler: He brought her into his office at the beginning of the day, and he closed the door. He's the type of boss who never closes his door, so that immediately tipped people off that something was going on. Then about ten minutes later, she left and started clearing her desk into a box and then left. She came back after lunch.

Some of us were talking about a prank we could do on the tumblr where instead of posts that sound insane out of context (or even with context), we put quotes that sound surprisingly normal.

You really never heard of any of this until just now?

Well those were the most boring or normal quotes I found from randomly looking at a few pages.
