Why is? Just, why?

Update:

Female Brony Spotted! What manner of sorcery is this?

Bronies go shopping for MLP little girl sized towels and this time they even manage to find the elusive female brony and bring her along.

Nice.

 

[The Lamonster]

Already a thread for cringeworthy videos.

 

[Medalion]

Nothing out of the ordinary there

 

[sn00zer]

This fanbase is weird...reminds me of anime nerds

atlanta bronies




there we go

 

[Kusagari]

This fanbase is weird...reminds me of anime nerds

Well...there are MLP dakimakura.

 

[Loofy]

Would have been funnier if there was a little girl there just looking at everyone like wtf.

 

[Clydefrog]

urge to kill... rising...

 

[Dresden]

Nerds hate each other for some reason.

 

[MThanded]

I don't understand. Is the obsession due to some attempt to be funny or ironic. Like "look at me I'm a post-pubescent male who loves a show made for the exact opposite demographic" .

[Tobor]

They're actually upset that the toys are made for little girls...

...I'm speechless.

 

[Mahzkrieg]

The lack of shame is weird, but whatever floats their boat.

 

[ViewtifulJC]

I like the "(grown men)" part of the title

 

[.GqueB.]

I still don't understand why this is happening.

 

[ghst]

Horse Armour

horse amore.

 

[CHEEZMO™]

Fedora spotted.

 

[Medalion]

I don't understand. Is the obsession due to some attempt to be funny or ironic. Like "look at me I'm a pre-pubescent male who loves a show made for the exact opposite demographic" .

Unfortunately it's kinda hard to tell... some people do it to be ironic, some people genuinely love it

 

[MThanded]

They're actually upset that the toys are made for little girls...

...I'm speechless.

"The rest of this is crap and meant for little girls while your fanbase is men"

Is this actually true. What percentage of viewers or fans are actually sit on reddit all day?

 

[Carlisle]

They're actually upset that the toys are made for little girls...

...I'm speechless.

Because little girls don't have money and they do. ECONOMICS!

 

[sn00zer]

Actually reminds me of
-otaku
-furries
-sonic super fans
-most of the people who creat things in the "awesome art" thread

 

[GK86]

Yup, those are bronies alright.

 

[FloppyDelux]

eh seems normal to me.

 

[AlimNassor]

Why does every video have to have comments to Amir0x?

 

[StealthGoblin]

Amirox gets another nod in the comments.

 

[Dishwalla]

I'd feel uncomfortable walking into a TRU as a person in my mid 20s. It just seems like a place I'd have no business in, since I don't have kids.

Some people actually like the show for what it is and get defensive when others mock them for it.

 

[Ferrio]

Well...there are MLP dakimakura.

Oh they have a name.... and man... that's a spooky google search.

[Lumpy Onion]

I don't get this fanbase at all. It really bothers me for some reason. But whatever makes them happy I guess.

They sell videogames too. Do you play videogames? I'm 32 and would have no issues going in buying a game from them.

 

[SmithnCo]

Well that was... something. Still less embarassing than I imagined though.

 

[MThanded]

My initial post was supposed to say post-pubescent not pre-pubescent . Apologies.

 

[FloppyDelux]

Oh they have a name.... and man... that's a spooky google search.

cant be that bad..* googles* uuuu...WTF this fan base is wayy out of hand now...

 

[Derrick01]

Heh I remember when people here tried to say it wasn't for little girls.

I'd feel uncomfortable walking into a TRU as a person in my mid 20s. It just seems like a place I'd have no business in, since I don't have kids.

They have some pretty crazy video game deals sometimes. I think they're doing a buy 1 Wii U game get another 40% off which is pretty good for a new launch.

Who the hell goes to Toys R Us for video games? That's like going to Wal Mart for video games.

 

[Nokagi]

Don't understand this goofy shit at all but whatever. As long as they aren't hurting anyone( such as pushing little girls down to get to the toys) and they don't mind looking fucking stupid then more power to them.

 

[Days like these...]

I always figured these 'fans' are doing it to be ironic/troll you know just for shiggles basically.

 

[Tobor]

I was hoping to see the looks on the cashier's faces. Missed opportunity.

 

[MThanded]

Me too. I am not sure though.

 

[dude]

They look like every group of nerds I've ever seen. I don't see anything weird or funny about this video. I find anime fans much more embarrassing than Bronies.

 

[joeygreco1985]

I don't get it. I just don't fucking get it. Is this "brony" bullshit supposed to be ironic? Or do they legitimately like My Little Pony?

 

[speedline]

grown men?

 

[Lumpy Onion]

I don't personally but I find it kind of silly you think that buying a game from them is unheard of as an adult. Apparently you haven't been reading about all the great sales TRU has been having on the gaming side. Oh well, your loss.

Is that shit + giggles? Fuck I'm stealing that. I combine words all the time but that one never came to mind.

 

[Videoneon]

obama's america

This.

Look at these social deviants/degenerates!

Really, I don't see the big deal there. Yeah most of the fanbase (the one visible to the internet, at least), is over the top, but so what.

 

[MNC]

eh seems normal to me.

Fucking brony.

 

[joeygreco1985]

Is Walmart on the "uncool" list for videogame purchases with Gamestop now too?

 

[justjohn]

No surprise whatsoever that none of them look like they've been inside a gym before.
