Didn't Hercules have Rainbow Dash's mark as a symbol or something too?

Actually, it did. Herc's Orphan's Plot Trinket was a bronze medallion with a cloud and a lightning bolt on it.

...Zeus is Rainbow Dash?

Working on PMV Purgatory 4. Clips will be:

Piano Man set to Scootaloo playing her piano

The Sheriff scene in The Big Lebowski set to the party scene in Griffon the Brush Off

Chocolate Rain set to...well, I'm sure you can figure that one out

LEEEROOOOOY JEEEENKIIIINS set to Rainbow Dash smacking the dragon in the face

Magic Dance (that David Bowie song from Labyrinth) set to the ponies navigating the maze in Ro H

The Hypnotoad sound effect set to Applejack being hypnotized

The Full Metal Jacket Boot Camp intro set to Twilight talking to the other ponies

Some video game parody (haven't decided on a game yet)

Recently, a Furaffinity user posted this picture, calling Bronies closet furries. The picture was uploaded multiple times on Ponibooru and spawned huge flame wars there. In the comments, I saw the thought "Furries are all sex freaks! We're totally not related to them!" repeated several times.

I can't help but chortle at the thought of Bronies being really offended at being stereotyped as homeless slacker bums, and yet saying stuff like this:

Both fandoms suffer from the unfortunate effect of having really loud, insecure people being obnoxiously in-your-face the moment they think someone is questioning their interests.

Thoughts?

In two minds, probably because I'm not completely enamoured of either subculture. I dislike when furries insist that anyone who likes a work containing anthropomorphic animals is a furry, because even if you set aside the stereotype of furries as sex-obsessed, there's still a difference between enjoying a work which contains anthropomorphic animals and enjoying a work because it contains anthropomorphic animals. Not everybody who played Star Fox is a furry; that's just silly.

On the other hand, it's just a joke image. It doesn't seem like something worth getting worked up about.

OK I'm posting my Evil Counterpart team here also

• The Big Bad: Trxie doesn't need explanation
• The Dragon: Blood Orange: Applejack's rich emo cousin compulsive liar
• The Evil Genius: Inkie Pie one of Pinkie's sister. She grew up better from living on the rock form all her life
• The Brute: Dumbbell one of the bullies that Rainbow Dash had to deal with
• The Dark Chick: Prince blueblood
• The Dark Chick: Flying Fox a cruel Pegasus that hates animals and is Pretty in Mink

Hahah, I just watched A Dog and Pony Show. New favourite episode!

Ok, that banner made my day. (*FID speaking here*)

Anyhoo, got a Cheerilee figurine, I'm rather impressed with how soft her hair is.

Still off model, but whatevs.

The only thing that really bothered me about that banner was the "logo". Why do parodies of the 2010 MLP logo always use letterforms that are way too rounded?

I became intrested in this show due to all the praise it was getting.I had found it strange that so many people were into a "little girls show", but then I saw the designs for the characters and I thought "huh, they really don't look butt-ugly like in the older shows.In fact, they actullay look kinda cute"! I had left it at that, but then curosity got the best of me, and I watched the Episodes "Sonic rainboom", "briddle gossip", "party of one", and "best night ever", as well as the 2 part pilot. I actually found myself enjoying this show due to, well, pretty much every reason that people have said before {except for being a fan of the older shows, which imo are terrible, and "Horse Cloping", which is just sick and wrong except when joked about only}!

However, I started to feel wierd about likeing this show because of the fact that I thought it's suppose to be for little girls only.But then I figured out that not only did mlp:fim have a even bigger following then I thought, but that lauren faust, the creator of the show as you allready know, intended it to be a show that everyone can like, regardless of age or gender! I felt better about my love of this awesome show, and thinking about it actually makes hard hours at school feel at least a little better for me! I have since then accepted my love for this show, and even got one of my friends to become a fan as well. I am quite happy that mlp:fim is successful, and I look forward to more season 2 episodes.

So I was reading that LP of Mega Man Battle Network 6 from the LP Archive, and I realized...

Fluttershy is a bit like Iris from that game. Some notable things about Iris are pink hair, butterfly-shaped hairclips, and being very kind.

Okay, Fluttershy may not be an artificially-created sentient being designed to control high-end weapons, but the general idea is there.

So, I was informed that the face AJ makes in the new episode each time she lied is an older meme in the fandom.

Oh you, writing team!

Yes, ◊ it's called◊ scrunchy face◊

First the fandom causes Derpy/Ditzy to permanently have crossed eyes, next they abuse the scrunchy face...

I like these small nods.

Finally got around to watching the episode.

Caught a frame of Apple Bloom with half closed eyes from the beginning. Going to be a fun avatar
Pinkie pie laying in puddle of chocolate, drinking chocolate rain... Fine and dandy until sudden Pinkamena hair when the cloud is taken away

And people complain about lack of Pinkamena hair. ;P

^Discord!Pinkie was lacking flat hair

I don't mind Pinkamena hair or mental-breakdown-Pinky.

What I do mind is creepypasta and the fandom ruining words like "plot" and "cupcakes" for me, FOREVER!

... I appriciate them making some words funnier though.

Related to the fandom ruining certain words...

I already dread that someone writes a Grim Dark Bad Fic of Sctootaloo processed into McNuggets...

Which term do you guys prefer for what Discord does to ponies? "Deharmonised"? "Discorded"? "Corrupted"?

edited 19th Sep '11 4:31:09 AM by Kerrah

I find "deharmonized" pretty catchy, myself.

I think "corrupted" rolls of the tongue better, is shorter and is actually included in the dictionary.

"Deharmonized" is like "victoryful, " you dodos.

Tell that to the people that coined the word narm.

I prefer Discorded.

... Touché.

Y U INSULT US? D:
