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.

Woo, page 3000!
I'm torn. On the one hoof, I think the entire idea of seceding from a fandom is frickin' ridiculous in the first place. On the other hoof, all the "burn the feminists" comments being lobbed around in that thread you linked make me want to hurl.
Seriously, though. Why would we even get involved in the first place? The whole thing is just an obvious impending 6 lane pile up. Let's not go importing drama, eh?

There are always going to be portions of the fandom that some people find unpleasant. Making a new fandom is impossible because fandom covers anyone who likes the show. You can easily create subsections, and new places you feel more comfortable, and I'm all for that.
Like here. I like it here, wither moderate and intelligent people. Usually.

I am so thrilled that this may be becoming a thing.

A conspiracy theory emerges in this image's comments: Twi, Trixie, and Shimmer are all clone-sisters for the Princess Sister's
Les Enfantes Terribles Project.

Even a stopped clock is right twice a day.I suppose Horn is slightly less inneundo prone than Snake. Slightly.
Blind Final Fantasy 6 Let's PlayI honestly don't care much about the tumblr thing. All that does is generate drama anyway.
@Wryte: Nice.
Reaction Image RepositoryI should (watch a lets) play (of) the Metal Gear series and find out what all the fuss is about.

All things are lawful for me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but all things edify not.Yeah, Wryte did a pretty good job on that rendition of Shimmer.
@Ike: It's a somewhat goofy somewhat grim take on supersoldiers and war, peppered with talk about nuclear about and goofy rants about cardboard boxes and enough meme theory to make MGS 2 a legit study topic in Meme Theory in some tertiary insitutes.
