yay!


EvilHomer - 2013-06-20

And I belive the tag should be "pegasisters", not "bronies".

Also "SFW Fetish".


fedex - 2013-06-20

I'd peg-a-pony the blue one


Caminante Nocturno - 2013-06-20

I wouldn't mind being the vegetarian filling in this herbivore sandwich.

Whoop whoop.


RocketBlender - 2013-06-20

Is there really a difference, other than gender?


EvilHomer - 2013-06-20

Not a huge one, but it's enough. The only real reason to keep it as "bronies", would be because bronies is a more active tag, and anybody searching poeTV for ridiculous MLP fan behavior is far more likely to check "bronies" than "pegasisters".

It's sad and it's sexist, I know (shut up Change), but bronies are creepier and weirder than pegasisters, and thus they get all the attention.

Maybe tag it as BOTH "bronies" and "pegasisters"?


RocketBlender - 2013-06-20

Done and done!


Spaceman Africa - 2013-06-20

great video guys


Caminante Nocturno - 2013-06-20

What the hell are you thanking us for? We're not the ones who made it.

You idiot.


EvilHomer - 2013-06-20

Ugh. You're gonna cheer for it like that?! LOUDER!


That guy - 2013-06-20

Yeah, I can't believe you one-starred this, you must be really dumb. MLP rules!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


SteamPoweredKleenex - 2013-06-21

I think there comes a time when fandoms become part of the site's raison d'etre, no matter what one thinks of them. You can loathe MLP and still rate it for evil rather than out of spite.

Though I do find it ironic that at least one of those who gripes about the single stars did plenty of downmodding of those "troper tales" vids a while back. I mean, this IS the Portal of Evil (or near enough) after all...


Caminante Nocturno - 2013-06-20

They went the extra mile and filmed this in the kind of backyard a pony would own.


Gmork - 2013-06-20

something something ogrish


EvilHomer - 2013-06-20

Yeah, it is pretty confusing for folks who don't get the reference, isn't it? No hard feelings, I totally get where you're coming from. Six months, I woulda thought something something ogrish, too!

Basically, in this scene, Rainbow Dash (the blue one) is teaching Fluttershy (the yellow one) how to cheer. Rainbow is going to participate in a pegasus pony athletic contest, you see, and she wants her friends on hoof to cheer for her. Well, technically FRIEND; at this point in the story, she believes Fluttershy will be the only pony who can come support her, because the athletic contest is taking place in Cloudsdale, city of clouds, and Fluttershy, being a fellow pegasus, is the only other member of the Mane Six who can fly up to it. That's an important point later in the story. But I digress.

Anyway, Rainbow is teaching Fluttershy to cheer, but Fluttershy is a very meek and demure pony. She tries her best, but, as you can see, her cheer comes out real quiet and adorable! And the harder she tries, the quiter her cheering gets! Silly Fluttershy just can't get it right!

So you see, it's actually very funny if you know the context.


EvilHomer - 2013-06-20

Oh horsefeathers. *Ago*. Six months *ago*. I'm very sorry.


Gmork - 2013-06-20

Actually that made it less funny. The context.

Really, there wasn't any funny to begin with. You're watching a show about talking ponies.


StanleyPain - 2013-06-20

the brony contingent of POETV almost gives a quiet dignity to the chat cabal folks from POEN.


Gmork - 2013-06-20

horseshoes and hand grenades


freedoom - 2013-06-20

I really enjoyed the cinematography in this.


takewithfood - 2013-06-20

Ordinarily I don't vote on MLP or wrestling videos or other things that just aren't my taste, but they really nailed the voice acting.


Scrimmjob - 2013-06-20

How did this get through the hopper without the brotherhood of pony haters down voting the shit out of it? I suspect a brony blitzkrieg! or maybe just because of titties?


Jet Bin Fever - 2013-06-20

Fuck you.


M-DEEM - 2013-06-20

nope


RocketBlender - 2013-06-21

Okay POE, you're really confusing me here. When did it stop being funny to showcase bronies? I missed the memo.


Spaceman Africa - 2013-06-21

About the time when a third of the videos going out of the hopper were MLP related. Also this video isn't evil, weird, or creepy.


That guy - 2013-06-21

For me, from the get.
I'm usually wrong though.


EvilHomer - 2013-06-21

It's still funny, it's just that many people here are still laboring under the false impression that talking ponies are gay. They're curious, and this curiosity fills them with shame. Hence the very vocal, very hostile, totally out of proportion reaction you see from a small subseb of our user base. "I ain't gay!" they think. "I hate ponies! Please, look at me! Look at me and believe me when I say that I hate ponies!"

The best thing we can do is just love and tolerate them, show them that there's nothing to be angry about, show them they don't need to feel ashamed. They'll come around when they come around.


Scrimmjob - 2013-06-21

i don't think anyone here thinks talking ponies are gay. I for one think that they are fucking stupid, but videos of bronies still have potential to be funny, weird, or evil. I also don't think this video is any of those.


People like evilhomer may have broken my barometer for mlp related video too though.


Candlejackv616 - 2013-06-21

Ok let me ask this, what if you are say someone like myself who is a fan of animation in general and just think as an animated show MLP just sucks? Nothing to do with the Pony's or fan base, I watched some MLP and thought it was just shitty, what do you to then?

Mind you I grew up watching PPG's growing up and im a guy so I've no issues being confident in my sexuality or whatever the fuck some of you are getting at with MLP "haters", but if a show sucks to me it sucks.

If you like watching that show, more power to you. I will say bronies do creep me the fuck out though. Its not so much the fact they like the show, its how obnoxious they are in expressing it that bugs me. Truth be told I have the same views on a lot of fandom really.

Lately it seems if your into something weird or geeky you have to be up in everyone's face about it in the most socially ofputting way possible. The insecurity expressed through that alone is astounding to me.


EvilHomer - 2013-06-21

I guess you're right, scrimmjob. This is one of those pony videos that's great fun if you know the context (seriously, this scene is one of my top three favorite Flutterdash moments!) but is only "moderately" evil at best.

The problem is, the Brotherhood of Anti-Ponies throws a girly fit over every pony video they see, even the ones which are totally poe-worthy, on account of being bizarre, embrassing, or just downright fun. So I guess my barometer for ponyphobic drama is broken, too.

I'm sorry, scrimmjob, I didn't mean to discount your opinion out of hoof, or act like you couldn't have a valid reason to dislike this *particular* video. That was unkind of me. Friends again?


Candlejackv616 - 2013-06-21

Thats some good trolling there Homer.


Spaceman Africa - 2013-06-21

If by good you mean boring and predictable. Waugh was better at trolling


RocketBlender - 2013-06-21

For me, I thought this was great just in how half assed it all was. The blue one can't even pull together a proper overreaction collapse.

To me, all this Brony stuff is weird and creepy. They're like furries with a fake moral code so they can stay on their high horse(Ha!). I guess after Brony saturation, a Brony video isn't weird enough just being a Brony video. I'd say I'll up my game, but that would mean actively searching for things, so I guess I'll stick to video games and parkour accidents for a while.


EvilHomer - 2013-06-21

I really don't see there being a "saturation"; there's less than one pony video per week! I think my mane man Cena_Mark put it best when he said:

"Tons of non-pony videos make it out of the hopper everyday. POETV is hardly "Bronyland." Go comment on the 95% non-pony videos and shut up you big baby. You guys are whinier than Rarity if forced to wear orange overalls with green sandals."

Yeah, I DID just dig around in the archives for a Cena_Mark quote. And what?!


But yeah, Rocket, I agree with you as far as bronies being weird and creepy. I've known some bronies for a couple years now, and honestly? They're the reason I didn't watch the show until recently. And now that I know, hay, I actually DO like the show? I keep trying to feel my way into the world of bronydom, you know, give 'em another chance, but holy Fluttershy, every time I go near those people it's something else fucking whacky. Like, just the other night, for example. I'm lurking at thia brony forum, reading this thread about what cutie marks the bronies think they'd have. Every last one of them, swear to Celestia, picks a cutie mark that accentuates how "creative" they are, or a cutie mark that has to do with fucking video games. Video games! For cutie marks! The butt tattoos that define your adult life! Those bronies were like walking parodies, no lie. And then there was this one guy, total pretentious twat waddle, who's all like - "I'm not bragging, but I'm a genius and know everything about math and science and art and literature. Oh and also I know how to turn household items into deadly weapons BUT I DON'T TELL NO PONY, CUZ THEMS TRADE SECRETS YO"


Which is exactly why videos like this belong here.


memedumpster - 2013-06-21

I wish MLP was about science, so it would never make it through the hopper.


RocketBlender - 2013-06-21

Sad but true. At least Bill Nye always makes it out. Almost always.


EvilHomer - 2013-06-21

You should name all your science videos something non-sciency and safe, like "Daniel Songer meets Gabriel Chana", or "Cute Gangstalking Cats Illuminati (NSFW)". That way, people'll upvote it (seriously, how many people actually stop to watch the whole damn thing before they yay or neigh a video? How many votes it's getting seems to be the deciding factor, not the video's content) and once your science is through the hopper, you can rename it to something pertinent.

Seriously, this technique works. I wish it didn't, but it does.


EvilHomer - 2013-06-21

Also, if I post one of those brony science animations, will people enjoy it?


Scrimmjob - 2013-06-22

doubt it


Pope Caius - 2013-06-21

I won't even bother to watch the video but 5 for poeTV drama
