I don't get it.

Could somepony give us the cliffsnotes version, please?


SteamPoweredKleenex - 2013-03-19

I have no desire to watch this, so five stars for making me not click.

However, a quick Google search brings up Hasbro's plans to basically turn the MLP characters into some kind of Bratz-like dolls, only not as anorexic.

At a guess, the Bronies that are into already making humanoid versions of the characters are going to claim they're being ripped off (the Sonichu Effect?) and I'd figure some of the fandom will just think it's a blasphemy against... Ponydom? Ponanity? Ponannas? I dunno.


Xenocide - 2013-03-19

It's a spinoff show that recasts everyone as a poorly-designed human.

Which isn't that big a deal, but why wouldn't any decent human being be opposed to more Bratz-style dolls?


Cena_mark - 2013-03-19

I don't see the beef with it. Its a spin. They say it'll have no effect on the show. If anything they'll like the new one once they give it a chance.


RocketBlender - 2013-03-20

I haven't been following too closely, but I love the irony here, if I'm understanding things right. First the rage at the rest of us for not giving a show made for 5 year old girls the chance it deserves (shame on us), all the while raging at anything new the company does as ruining it declaring they're leaving the fandom.


Kabbage - 2013-03-19

How'd this get out of the hopper?


SteamPoweredKleenex - 2013-03-19

I'd say it has something to do with the title of the site, but that's only a theory.


Oscar Wildcat - 2013-03-19

The creator of this clip is apparently angry that his fantasy of fucking magical flying ponies is going to be ruined by GIRLS.


BHWW - 2013-03-19

Four stars for allegedly grown-ass adults getting upset over a kiddie cartoon. I say supposedly because a lot of the pics of bronies and yes, pegasisters I've seen, they have disturbingly neotenous faces, often made more disturbing with wispy chin hairs or greasy pube-beards.


Xenocide - 2013-03-19

HEY BUDDY, DID YOU GET A LOAD OF THE NERDS?


BHWW - 2013-03-19

You should really just have a "G-g-g-guys, s-s-s-s-stop makin' fun of Muh-muh-muh-my Little Pony f-f-fans! :choke, sob: " response ready to cut-n-paste for all of your replies to these sort of videos.

Won't someone think of Xenocide's fursecution?!?


Caminante Nocturno - 2013-03-19

Don't waste your time on this neighsayer, Xenocide. Parasprites like him are a lost cause.


Xenocide - 2013-03-19

BHWW will not rest until everyone on the internet knows what cartoons he doesn't like.


Caminante Nocturno - 2013-03-19

Yeah, he's a real gabby gums.


Old_Zircon - 2013-03-19

Well played troll, Hasbro.


Old_Zircon - 2013-03-19

I only made it 19 seconds into the video, so an extra imaginary star for that.


John Holmes Motherfucker - 2013-03-19

I hoping that KNOW YOUR MEME will explain this to me.


dairyqueenlatifah - 2013-03-19

I always love nerd rage like this.

For example, in the last new episode of My Little Pony, Twilight Sparkle was magically given wings and turned into a "princess". All the fanboys flipped out and said "THIS IS RIDICULOUS! HASBRO, A TOY COMPANY, IS JUST DOING THIS BECAUSE THEY WANT TO SELL MORE TOYS!"

It makes me wonder if being a manchild who never leaves mom's house really makes you this oblivious to how our capitalistic society actually works, and that businesses are in the business of, you know, making money.


Cena_mark - 2013-03-19

I'm not sure what to think of Twilacorn. We'll have to see what they do with her in season 4.


EvilHomer - 2013-03-19

I thought Twilight Sparkle already HAD wings? Isn't she one of the flying horses?


Cena_mark - 2013-03-19

She got her wings on the season 3 finale, so she JUST got them. I'm setting aside my judgement on what they do with that in season 4.


Blue - 2013-03-19

I'm pretty sure you understand that people that work in fast food restaurants get shit pay and that doing a shitty job is easier than doing a good job.

I'm pretty sure that when someone fucks up your order you don't just go "Oh, well I guess that's capitalism for you".

People that make properties that represent many millions of dollars and hundereds of jobs shouldn't be doing an intentionally shit job of it. We wouldn't tolerate it for a taco and we shouldn't tolerate it for a 0 million dollar movie. We'd pitch a goddamn fit if our waitress started talking up local businesses to supplement her income.

This shit is for kids. Maybe goddamn adults should start standing up for them instead of setting them in front of whatever shit ad execs want to throw at them. We should probably do it fucking now, because Zynga will fucking murder your children.


dairyqueenlatifah - 2013-03-20

You realize you made a terrible analogy between two things that aren't even reasonably comparable right? That there's absolutely nothing logically sound about your post?

I know you're smarter than that. I'll just assume you're fucking with me.


EvilHomer - 2013-03-20

Wasn't the whole point of the My Little Pony franchise to sell plastic horse dolls to little kids? I was under the impression that MLP was GI Joe for girls.

A brony raging because his show sells toys makes about as much sense as a Catholic raging because his church supports God.


Caminante Nocturno - 2013-03-19

Rarity would never say something as uncouth as "insane stain" and anyone who believes otherwise has no business calling themselves a brony.

5 stars for Rarity.


Cena_mark - 2013-03-19

***** Five stars for Applejack. Applejack would turn Rarity into an apple. That would show that frou frou, prissy, mule.


Caminante Nocturno - 2013-03-19

You take that back, you ringo-sucking hayseed!


Jet Bin Fever - 2013-03-19

boo.


Old_Zircon - 2013-03-20

I know a designer at Hasbro who actively works to subvert that kind of stuff.

But yeah, not feeling the analogy.


John Holmes Motherfucker - 2013-03-20

I'm blown away but just how much you guys know about this stuff,


Mancakes - 2013-03-20

For goddamn real.


SteamPoweredKleenex - 2013-03-20

I've never seen a full episode, though I've seen clips and even posted a few to the hopper (I still liked one that crossed over between this show and Oblivion, but that's just me).

The show has become a pervasive meme. It's used for forum icons, animated gifs, etc. It's almost impossible to have not gleaned some parts of it by osmosis.

Come to think about it, there are a LOT of cartoon shows I "know" about via this method without actually having watched an entire 22-minute show. Pokemon, Yu-Gi-Oh, Ben 10, Clone Wars, etc.


JubeLube - 2013-03-22

Three stars for the nerd who didn't have a single female friend to voice this.
