Fuck, I watched that an actually laughed.

And despite the fact that I understand why someone would think it's weird that grown men like MLP (For the record, I don't watch it), why the fuck is GAF so hateful?

It's the first thing I've noticed is common across the website, everyone has a chip on their shoulder.
 
I happened to catch an episode of this at my buddy's place when his daughter popped it on their DVR. The animation and style kind of drew me in and then I ended up watching the whole thing. I forget what actually happened in the episode but I can say I was quite entertained by it. I think one of the ponies wasn't invited to some kind of baking party and there was a whole bunch of drama.

I should've known that some of that talent that was behind PPG was also behind this. It had a similar feel and I think that's why I liked it. I'll probably catch some other episodes if I remember.

It's fuckin' GAF man. GAF hates everything. You'll learn that soon enough.

This is the MOST hilarious moment in all the series up until now. Me and my wife were in stitches through the whole song. Fluttershy's voice makes the moment, but Pinkie's dance is the cherry on top of the cake.

What the fuck is up with the My Little Pony love lately? It's all over Something Awful as well.

OP tells it all. Great animator picks up production, makes a show that is actually very enjoyable for everyone, people start getting hooked against their own expectations of what this should be, and the rest is magic.

Thankfully, this show provides us with the most "haters gonna hate" pic opportunities of anything, ever!

I always were pro-bronies, it's funny that people get so mad at people liking some cartoon. I finally watched a couple of episodes though and I can say that I do not like that show all that much. It's nice, but I thought this is going to be Adventure Time level of awesome, and it's not even close. I'm not a huge fan of the animation either.

I'm still on your side though, bronies, you guys are alright.

Alright, that was awesome.

i just can't...

look I like cartoons, I watch them all the time. but i just cannot get interested in this show. it does nothing for me. I've tried watching it but I couldn't get through more than ten minutes.

I mean it seems like it's well made and everything, but... just... I don't get it.

Fair enough, as long as you don't start trolling and saying how everyone here draws pony porn or something equally as stupid it's ok.

Figured this could be useful next time EvilLore lets in a new batch of juniors. I tried adding text but Photoshop didn't render the GIF properly when I did. Apologies if the filesize is large - I'd really appreciate tips on how to keep the size down. After Dennis4K managed to keep his MASSIVE Witcher gifs under 5megs, I'm sure he has magic powers.

That's a surprisingly appropriate reaction gif to a new junior wave, shame the text didn't work out. Also those ponybeat remixes are phenomenal!

In other news MLP has given me inspiration to make my avatar even worse. Sometimes you just gotta aim for the top.

Why do you even enter this thread at this point...?
because I thought it would be humorous considering that this is from PPG which helped spawn the show and a lovely in-joke laugh would be had by all while at the same time piss off people who don't realize where it came from



i guess im too pro

For a pro, you sure thought it was from PPG when it was from Dexter (so it wasn't an in-joke - and no, Craig did PPG (who is related to Faust in marriage) whereas this is made by Gennedy). Action Hank is your hint.

Isn't Action Hank from Dexter's Lab?

edit- yes it is.

But Faust did work on PPG.

As some of the writers yes, but I thought it was Craig who handled most. Faust did most in Foster's.

While I like Stare Master, I don't think I can handle next episode for yet another Cutie Crusade.

I don't care what ya'll say. There's no reason for grown ass men to be watching this shit. Unless you're parent, or, for some odd reason, using this as a reference for some kind animation class, you have NO business watching this. Creep City.

There's never a reason for watching anything, outside of documentaries.

Or there's this reason: it's enjoyable and makes us happy. Have a taste of the happy sugar, PXG. Let it rot your gnawing teeth of cynicism and insecurity.

I don't care what ya'll say. There's no reason for grown ass men to be playing video games. Unless you're parent, or, for some odd reason, using this as a reference for some kind programming or modeling class, you have NO business playing video games. Loser City.

Well, I'm saying that everyone likes different shit, and some of the shit you like appears just as idiotic to other people - but just like you believe video games have something to offer to a grown man, some people believe MLP has something to offer to them.
As long as this is not causing you physical harm...
Shut the fuck up about it, no one cares if you don't like MLP just like I don't care what people who don't like video games care about them. Some people do like MLP, and you what, even if they are fucking furries who like to fap to ponies shitting on one another, what do you care? Do they force you to watch that shit? Does you suffer from their sheer existence? well then, tough shit buddy. The funny thing is that once you're out of this thread, you'll get back to reading comics, or watching anime, or playing video games or whatever is your chosen flavor of the man-child lifestyle and think you're superior to people who enjoy some fucking cartoon featuring horses.
So, in short, some people like something you don't, go baww somewhere else you goddamn fucking retard.

Shit, and I don't even like MLP.

Well, aren't you the one who made the thread about "social conservatives"? How they have to defend themselves? This is kinda ironic.

Sorry, but I just find it utterly hilarious that 4chan and Something Awful, supposedly two of the internets most hardened hives of scum and villainy, are completely unable to cope with people liking a cute animated show about ponies. It's like they looked at that xkcd comic about Stephanie Meyer fans destroying 4chan and said to themselves "Hey, that's a good idea, but is there any way we could do it that would make us look even more absurdly insecure and immature?"

What does Moe mean?

Fluttershy is easily the best pony, looks like she was modelled after Bubbles who was also the best PPG.

Kinda funny you say that as Bubbles = Tara Strong = Twilight.

Anyway, kinda late to this thread. I've been wondering why I've been seeing MLP popping up more and more in Image Macros, sigs, and avatars. I have HUB and heard about the new MLP, but I figured it was just a derivative cash-in, I had no idea who was working on it.

My sister was a huge MLP fan back in the 80s, had a huge collection, pony stable and everything. It had kinda rubbed off on me a little when my sister got me my own MLP figure. I never knew it's name, it was a yellow male with a cowboy hat and a cactus emblem on his rear.

Anyway, saw a little of it via the links above. It's certainly got a cute factor without going overboard in cheesiness or heavy handed in its themes. Thumbs up from me!
