A famous and well loved fic

Seraph, I know you love foe, and I like it to, but I'd hesitate to call it famous and well loved.

Famous and highly controversial is much more accurate.

No, still more then enough that do love it for that to be true. Or it wouldn't have gotten as big as it is.

You know, I wouldn't really care if the whole not posting all the chapters at once thing didn't feel so much like double-dipping.

But what do I know? I'm just one of those little guys who're supposed to get pushed aside.

I need to get this unnameable feeling out of my system somehow.
One thing I thought of was researching the setting well enough to run a tabletop RPG in it, then I'd be sick of it. Of course that would require playing with bronies, and I won't lie, I have some prejudice against them.
I could just force myself to watch more episodes and skip over the songs, which seem to be the main source of my pain. At least the adventure episodes.
I might actually be resisting the fandom more than the franchise, what with its endless fan-wanking (and literal wanking) over background ponies who have little to no canon behind them. I don't care about Time Turner! He doesn't even look like David Tennant! His eyes are a different color and his hair spikes the other way! I don't WANT to care!
I don't WANT to debate about the best or worst pony! I've never seen something so pointless!
I don't WANT to wear a fedora and "20% cooler" T-shirt!
I don't WANT to keep up with fandom in-jokes, especially ask blogs!
I don't WANT to "love and tolerate" everything bronies do! Putting Cupcakes on Youtube where children can see it? NOT OKAY.
I don't WANT to pretend Derpy isn't offensive! YOU decided she was mentally challenged, not the show, YOU, because of her appearance!
I don't WANT to become one of you. Is that possible? To just watch the show and not be creepy about it?
...
Wow. That went in a bad direction. I'm sorry.

[up][up] Eh, I don't blame you. At this point I just stick around for pretty fanart and not much else.
That's my dream. It's my nightmare. Crawling, slithering, along the edge of a straight razor … and surviving.

@ikeepcrawlingback: Dude, you can watch the show and not be a brony or be creepy. I do not do any of those things you mentioned, I do not own any merchandise. I primarily sit on the periphery of the show. The only real interaction I have with the fandom was with the people in this thread. I don't get in endless debate over "which Pony is best" or any of that. You might also try to be a little less inflammatory by not painting a specific group in such broad strokes. I'm not personally offended, but there are a few people who are a bit more impassioned on the subject. In any case, you're free not to enjoy the show, so I'm not going to hassle you over that.

Well I'd like to think so, but you'll find plenty of people on the internet who will find you creepy just for watching the series so. . .yeah.

ikeepcrawlingback: So don't talk about any of those subjects. There's enough information in the show and enough diverse groups around the Internet that I'm sure you could find one that suits your interest.

Me, a troll? Ha! I get that a lot. Truth is I'm just that messed up.

I'm really not convinced he's a troll. And if he is, he's a really bad one.

I didn't decide she was mentally challenged. I decided she's secretly one of the smartest characters on the show, and the only one who can see other dimensions.
And, since today is apparently National Jump To Conclusions Day...

I am not of the opinion he's a troll either, guys. It's a bit of an ugly accusation to be throwing around.

Why? Why go to the trouble of running an RPG about something you don't like with people you don't like.

Oh wow. A lot of new pages. Any new news or interesting opinions since the season 4 stuff came out? What about fanart and stories?
There is a tumblr about an insane thread about ponies.

All right, I'm calmed down now. Gonna give it another try. I have to get the ponies out of my head one way or another, and I don't own a power drill.
What's the LEAST sugary episode?

#384900 from Delamare
Very very few are what you seem to be thinking, I say just suck it up, stop worrying about what is "supposed" to be watched by what audience and watch a few, almost none of them are "sugary" in the negative connotation you imply. But it's all down to you own personal interest, you don't like it don't watch it.
