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?

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

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:

Furries are an internet leper colony. Associating with them would be very, VERY, bad.

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.

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.

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 [lol]

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"?

I find "deharmonized" pretty catchy, myself.
I took a guess and cut a portion out of my heart.
He said, "That's nowhere close enough, but it's a damn good start."

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

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