What is being a bronie all about?

[Graceheart the Leopard]

But that A&E thread is all about what's happening in the show, isn't it? (I haven't looked lately)

This is about the bronies themselves.

(Or do they talk about dressing up? I shall have to look.)

And inevitably, it turns into a flame war.

 

[Nick Carpathia]

But does anyone dress up like a my little pony? I bet there's some that do.

Yes.

Great point. It stays until or if the mods break it down.

Back to bronies:

Is it common for a bronie to buy MLP merchandise? Or is an avvie enough?


That chick in the gif looks so uncomfortable.

@Nick

*long slow exhalation*

I see.

 

[Crezth]

Thanks to your picture spam-posts, I presume?

No, because presumptuous dicks like useless just can't resist talking about how those damn bronies are ruining our precious institutions of marriage or whatever, and it hurts the feelings of nerds.

 

[hobbsyoyo]

Really? That's an actual opinion, that it ruins marriage? Whoa *mind blown*

Then again I should've expected it considering the link to pedophilia was drawn in the second page.

 

[Borachio]

Really? I find that hard to believe.

Surely some people do. I don't, I'm more of a casual fan.

Proof that it's believable:

And when the adult men draw and write massive amounts of pornography featuring children.

That's cool. So you watch the show?
Is it still on or is it on Netflix [or Spanish equivalent] now?

 

[Crezth]

No, not quite. I'm being a little facetious, but it's because it's so odd to see useless arguing so vehemently for heteronormative customs in light of the type of injustices he usually gets agitated about.

 

[WindFish]

Bronies do my bloody wick in because they have this weird need to cram the damm mane six into everything.

That and they write dodgy pornfics.

 

[JohannaK]

It's on YouTube.

Well, I have a couple of T shirts and the 4 Free Promotional posters from Walmart. I also have a couple of things I picked up at a con. I have several things I've made myself such as Needlepoint and a set of etched glasses and am currently working on a cross stitch T-shirt.

Plenty of folks have merchandise and plenty don't. Much of what is floating around is unlicensed merch though.

Whoa you gave me new material for that British English thread.

Are the dodgy pornfics actually common or just notorious enough to cause the rest of the Bronie community grief?

No, not quite. I'm being a little facetious, but it's because it's so odd to see useless arguing so vehemently for heteronormative customs in light of the type of injustices he usually gets agitated about.

He also has a pokemon avatar if I'm not mistaken...

 

[Tecknojock]

Well, so do most other fandoms.

I don't think they're any more common than in other fandoms, but people railing against ponies love to bring them up and seem to ignore all other types of R34

I don't know how common they are, I just know they are notorious enough.

Edit:

Most other dodgy pornfics about fandoms are about adults getting it on, not ponies that are supposed to be kids.

 

[Formaldehyde]

I just like the show. And how cute the ponies look.

Well, you are a female so it must be OK.

 

[hobbsyoyo]

That's a pretty cool assortment of swag you got.

Oh hey, can bronies be women too?

 

[JohannaK]
