01/13/11(Thu)18:34 No. 22594888 Confound you, /co/! It feels like it was forever ago, but I'm sure it was only weeks, when MLP spilled out into other boards; however slight it might have been. Pony-themed cocktails, MLP video game theorization, pony reaction images, it was unsettling at first. Mass trolling? Something more? It's tough to pinpoint why things like this happen, the only truth is that it happens. Today I needed something to take my mind off of things. I dove into an MLP general in hopes to find a link to episodes if only to drown out the world with gratuitous amounts of cute, girly, and silly. The first reply, similar to the one in this thread, was more than helpful. I started out thinking I would have to keep myself open-minded, by the second episode I realized that for a girl's show there was some serious shit going down. It was cornier than grandma's feet, but for the most part it...wasn't bad. In my eyes, it went from girly-girl, gonna-get-cooties-if-you-watch-it show to a relatively enjoyable cartoon within the first 3 episodes. It's John Everypony hanging out with friends, being silly, and sometimes serious shit happens but it's okay because your plot's got more corn than a cob and all your problems are solved when you get corny...except the characters are ponies and it's all about the cute. You have one more brony for the herd, /co/. I may live in other boards, but I'll always come and visit for the MLP. It'll be tough to shake the sheer strangeness of watching a show my mind still perceives as girly, but I've enjoyed the cartoon too much to not try.
