This kid seems like hes pretty crazy.

He is always posting these really deep and philosophical rants from the perspective of a delusional otaku.

He just seems REALLY into MLP, like, a religion or something.

I dunno, most of the time i just smh in wonderment at the shit this dude says.

He can feel however he wants, im not trying to be mean, but I really dont know what to think about his little speeches he posts all the time.

I'm not seeing anything too offending there. Do I still think he's way off base for many watchers? Sure, though I haven't seen any of his other rants. Seems more like hit mongering to me as he panders to the super fans. Once you find a voice where people are willing to listen, you speak that way even if you don't believe your own words.
 
The best thing about this show is that I no longer automatically think of the movies when I hear the word "twilight." I'm half serious.

"Twilight Sparkle"

Do you think of:
1. Teenage vampires that sparkle in the sun
2. A magical pony

I'm glad they did that, too.
 

This is the best gif in the history of pony kind.

Also, that is awesome news. Doesn't that basically confirm they are working on a full length season 4 now?

I'm kinda surprised no one's made a Cranky version considering he shares the same VA as Cartoon Bison. Though I suppose Discord does make more sense being a villain.

After all this good news, I'd like to share an excellent album by All Levels at Once. Seriously, just listen to some of it.

I was actually JUST going to mention this. I've been working Graveyard shifts all week, the huge upside being that we can listen to our own music, and listening to his album has been a real highlight of my nights. Very fun and unique takes on various songs


Very lovely and spot on. Too bad she's a total snob.


That is one of the best (and hottest) Human Twilights I've seen. Something about that ambiguous ethnic tan really works for her.




Well this is really nice to hear :D

Human ponies you say?

I don't think I've ever had as strong a "Not sure if want" feeling as I do seeing this picture.


Oh and cute new avy you're sporting Ruby.

I think my favorite is "Pony Should Pony Pony" or "Celestia's Faithful".

I know, right? I'm not a fan of the black interpretation of Twi, but this is good.

It happens on Gaf quite a bit for me when somebody is referencing the movies. It's always the pony when I hear the word now.

It's strange when it gets name dropped in the middle of a conversation. I trip up for a moment and have to figure out what they are really talking about. It feels weird having that hesitation of dual meanings for a word that never used to.

Because I've got about 300 Pony songs on my MP3 player, and I have it set to shuffle, I haven't had a good listen to all the tracks. But I have to say I like Pony Pony, Changeling and Perfect Stallion the best.

Reminds me of this pic:

Also, in my OCD-fuled quest to go through all the images on Derpibooru (formerly Ponibooru) found these little things here.

And I think this is actually a pretty awesome idea for an episode.:

What is pony music really? Besides the obvious like remixes or character driven songs, the rest seem like it could be anything.
Just music made by fandom? The only conclusion I can get out of it is as a label or tag, so it can only be reached by the right audience.

I would assume an aesthetic or style that musicians believe fans would appreciate. Given the age of "Bronies" -- I would guess most are geeky late 20s or early 30s -- retro style video game music seems appropriate.

There's a lot of music, especially instrumentals, that calls itself pony with no connection to the show. Given that there is "pony" music from literally every genre imaginable, there's really no qualifications.

Looks like I have to break out this pic again...

I'm so well tuned to all of your antics I can scroll right past the nasty pictures. Go ahead, try posting computer photo editor Twilight and tweeted saddle Twilight too.

I'm on to you.

She's innocent and adorkable.

Bigger Zecora presence in S3? Niiiiice. Also a question, I've seen a lot of human-pony art that has certain members of the Mane 6 portrayed as darker skinned while the others are lighter skinned. I know trying to apply race to ponies is absolutely ridiculous but I just want to know everyone's take on art like that. Here's one for example:

Dash and AJ - Tan
Pinkie - I dunno, peachy

In my head it goes:

Twilight - Whatever floats your boat
Fluttershy - Caucasian
Rarity - Caucasian
Rainbow Dash - Caucasian or Hispanic
Pinkie Pie - Caucasian or Hispanic
Applejack - Caucasian
Zecora - Nigerian lol
 
I'm not really a big fan of humanizations since I kinda get the feeling that a lot of them are some kind of justification, or excuse (hard finding the right word) to feel attracted to the characters without them being... well, ponies, for understandable reasons. I may very well be wrong, but it's a feeling I've gotten when I've seen some humanized art. And while I do like my pony art cute and innocent, I can't deny that this



is pretty hot.

Works for me.

It's clear the main six ponies were pretty much already the embodiment of diversity (all different different colored coats, equal split between the 3 pony types), so it's not at all a stretch when that same mindset is extended to "human pony" fan art . I enjoy seeing other people's re-interpretations, no matter what shade they're in.

What's really weird are the people who actually get put-off/disgusted at the sight of a dark-skinned version of a character. That's just kinda fucked up imo.
