Hooker - 2012-05-25
I haven't watched the video, but I want to say that the thing that bothers me most about bronies isn't the fascination with a kid's show, or the sexual deviance, or the socially stunted people. All of that bothers me, but the thing that bothers me most is the gross, rampant consumerism of it. That these people fill up their lives with a manufactured product and gleefully buy up any crap that comes from it. That bothers me to no end.

Cena_mark - 2012-05-25 There wasn't much brony stuff in the video. They were just acting like dorks in Boston, not going to a convention or anything. The only MLP shit in there was a toy on the dash, one of them had rainbow hair, and they used a song from the show in the video. The camera person had wore goggles, a fedora, and a collar. These people are just so dorky I wanted to take their lunch money.
Its not the same as sports. Its lame and sports are cool.

Dr Robot - 2012-05-25 Yeah, and I'm thinking about the other videos that have shown up here, like where the guy is "reviewing" an MLP coloring book he just bought the last copy of at WalMart. That's the kind of consumerism I think Hooker means, and it's fucking weird because you can't exactly bring up MLP as small talk while waiting for a meeting to start at the office.

Someone explain Brony'dom to me. It's not a kid's show with adult appeal. It's not something child minded men would have been into when they were kids. It's not a window into a culture you imagine wouldn't despise you (anime).
What is it?

Cena_mark - 2012-05-25 I like the show. I guess cabbage is right, on that its something I can't quite explain, but I'm not rebelling against society's view of masculinity. I shoot guns, kill fish, watch wrasslin, make badass music. I'm just a cartoon fan and find it to have good witty moments.
I'm not in the fandom I just watch the show. I couldn't imagine myself singing at a gathering with those dorks. I'd be fighting the urge to deliver massive wedgies.

Caminante Nocturno - 2012-05-25 You're STILL being a crybaby over that video?
It's been over a month!

Cena_mark - 2012-05-25 You stole everyone's innocence.

Sudan no1 - 2012-05-26 I'm not upset, just disappointed. I'm a poe-red veteran, Caminante used to keep it clean. Wanda was cute. I liked Prop Girl. Pomf is this internet's generation Baby Fuck. You revealed your trashy side, it's the proof everyone needed to ostracize you back in the day. JUST SAYIN

FABIO - 2012-05-26 I never made the main character autism connection. That does explain things.

Caminante Nocturno - 2012-05-26 Poe-red veteran?! A coward like you has no right to call themselves that!

Sudan no1 - 2012-06-21 I'm a coward because I don't approve of grown men posting a song about fucking a child? ooooooookay.
