Lol, looks like they're talking about card games.

Don't they know that those cartoons are for 7-12 year olds? Losers.

I know, it's just a thread derail after another and after another. What was that thread again originally?

Whatever it was, I doubt it was mine; I don't upload avatars to Imgur. Edit: unless you rehosted, derp.

Edit: that was meant as a compliment / not patronising.

Yeah, I rehosted it. Damn I thought I had taken it out of my account, but it looks like I can't find it now. It was the one with Rainbow Dash zooming through the air in a downward direction.

Obviously? I never saw it established anywhere that throwing the horseshoe with the muzzle instead of the teeth was supposed to be a handicap. Neither pony brought that up.

RD's first shot was exactly in line with AJ's two shots. RD's second shot broke a window way off in the distance. I thought it was obvious that RD's second shot was her playing around, not competing. But it seems I can't really convince you to like Rainbow Dash, so I won't say much more.

The only mark I have against AJ in this episode is that she said nothing about the "cheating" in the Iron Pony until accusations after she had lost, because during the match she was fine with trying to beat a Pegasus Pony. I like that it seems she won't accept that being an Earth Pony is in any way inferior to a Pegasus Pony or a Unicorn Pony, but complaining after the loss was beneath her. And the fighting in general.

RD also shouldn't have been fighting, but I saw a Pegasus Pony who could hold her own against a top Earth Pony even while handicapped in a competition where any non-Earth Pony would be at a disadvantage, and someone who has very different attitudes towards playing and competing, and has trouble with the line between the two.

Oh man, that's true. It was totally Celestia. Luna needs to take over. Install Apple Bloom as her second.

Because AJ doesn't have wings? RD could match AJ's strength over time if she really wanted to. AJ will NEVER be able to fly though.
Click to expand...
I suspect that horns and wings, although ponies are born with them, are the manifestation of internal magical power, which can grow, leading to new manifestations.

Twilight for example, seems to be studying to become a princess. She'd likely have to sprout wings before that happens.

Rarity on the other hand used her magic to develop telekinetic dexterity for use in dressmaking, and a gemstone detector, and she's satisfied with that, so she'll probably never naturally develop her beautiful wings on her own.

Pinkie-Pie doesn't have wings or a horn, but deep inside you just know she's bubbling with fourth-wall breaking cosmic magics and could eventually become a god more powerful than Celestia if she put her mind to it.

Applejack seems to envy horns and wings, but she's ultimately content with the physical world.

Rainbow Dash is in love with flying and probably wants nothing else.

Fluttershy's wings would probably fade away if they could.

Wow, I know I was getting LTTP to shit as I spent more time at the office, but there's a new MLP and I didn't know? Craziness.

Looking forward to rocking 5 or 6 eps tonight if it's good.

Also, the hate you guys are drawing is hilarious. Even if the show turns out not to be my thing (and I like Zettai Karen Children so that is an unlikely outcome), you have my full GAF-support just for pissing off dudebros.

And it's fucking great, excellent.

Might end up rocking all of S1 if I talk myself into it.

First impressions:

Fluttershy (MOE) > Rarity (Sophistication) > Pinkie (LOL) > Rainbow Dash (lol) > Applejack (No read yet) > Twilight (Bossy, condescending, rude and annoying)

Keep going! You are climbing the mountain of meh to get to the summit of sweet! :D

Even though I liked the first two episodes, a lot of people don't, and the show follows a different formula after those two. You are about to be sucked, don't turn back now!

Just a note that the first two pilot episodes aren't really good representations of the series as a whole. It goes in a completely different direction (think Slice of Life Anime territory). So if you really want to get a more proper viewing of the series, at least watch one or two more.

EDIT: Beaten by better posts

I don't know, it just feels, ugh, weird. Watching this I mean. That's why I have to curse you all :<
I started with first two episodes and well, nothing special really. Though I did love the animation.
Then, after reading in op that they don't really represent the series, I jumped to Swarm of the Century and... actually really liked it.... wtf? It was fun to watch, witty, and WAH WAH WAAAAH at the end was the perfect finish for this episode.
So, I've decided to go on and watched the third one (ticket episode). Some parts were very cliched, but it was still very fun to watch and, as I've said, I love the animation. Now, that was until the Benny Hill sequence. It took me completely by surprise and pretty much sold this episode (or the whole series?) to me.
Well, that's my story. Hello to you all.

PS. This is the only thing besides porn that I watch using private tabs. Sigh.

Oh, I get it now. Good thing, then.

Really, the sooner you're able to let go of your self-consciousness about watching this, the more fun you'll have. Other people can just...

It's great to have you aboard the pony train.

But now, look what you did...

Applejack is helping Fluttershy with the official bunny census, where they count up all the new baby bunnies born this season!

But she also promised she'd help Rainbow Dash & Pinkie Pie...

Oh my gosh how will she get it all done and get the applebush harvest gathered in time?!

Dear Pony-GAF,

To show you how much I care, I've added a special, hidden item into my upcoming Xbox Live Indie Game, Sequence. The item relates to GAF.

And ponies.

When the game is released in a couple weeks, I'll be sure to post the secret code to access the item in this thread. So be sure to check it out. = D

So I made my first tentative venture into expressing my (as of yet) closet pony to my peers on another forum. Was still pretty nervous about how I would be recieved so I tried to downplay the obvious barriers by mentioning simple facts while maintaining that my post was completely serious and not a joke or troll.

Blue_Gecko said:
So...

Just a fore-mention:

This post is 100% serious.

There is a new animated show that started airing on the Hub TV network last fall that I've really gotten into. It's made by people who were involved with the creation of other awesome cartoon shows such as Dexter's Laboratory, Foster's Home For Imaginary Friends, The Powerpuff Girls, and Samurai Jack.

Right now you can watch all the episodes on Youtube, as Hasbro doesn't seem to mind the free publicity it has gotten in the past few months and is allowing each episode to stay in its entirety. It's really a great show and you definitely give it a watch if you liked any of the above shows I mentioned.

Link to the first episode

Will update when I see what kind of reception I get.

Not nearly as good as Night of Pony, but Corridors of Time can make anything 20% cooler than anything else. Except Corridors of Time. That'd be silly.

You didn't mention the name? You kind of have to face it head on and say that it's My Little Pony. If they click the Youtube link and see the title, they're liable to think you just rickrolled them and close the window.

Those who can't get past the name, can't get past the name.

So you think the forewarning that the post was actually really serious and the fact that it stated all true facts wasn't enough to counter the idea that I might have just been rickrolling?

I guess I set myself up for that one.

THERE'S JUST SO MUCH PRESSURE.

Maybe just add a "PS: It's My Little Pony" after the link, if you can still edit. It's easier for their brains to process it slowly it in small text than in a Youtube video that starts playing.

Edit: And I know that feeling. I used to get it when I started watching Sailor Moon in the mid-90's. It wears off, eventually. Mostly.

So with all the internet drama going on around this show I decided to educate myself and watched the opening 2 episodes. Seemed okay.....then I watched the third episode.....and then the next and before I knew it i'd watched all the available episodes. (over the span of a week that is)

I'm now filled with a number of conflicting emotions!

I know what you mean bro. I've only started it yesterday and watched 6 episodes so far and I have no idea what to feel about it. It feels so wrong yet so good. Bizarre.

you should add an iron giant shoutout too, that movie can melt some bitter animation fan hearts.

Managed to slap up an edit before anyone replied, adding both the Iron Giant and this:

It's called 'My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic'

I just want people to see the show and give it a chance, because I really enjoy it and I want other people to enjoy it too.

In before ban? We shall see.

It's a cold, cold world outside of Equestria, friends.
