I don't think it really is, though. Memes come from the show and the fans, but the show itself isn't really.
It's more of a meme to people who don't watch it, I guess.
Besides, lots of memes start out with something that wasn't meant to be funny.

I still think this is just a realy forced meme from 4chan...

anyway carry on with this ponyness if you must tongue

To me, spoiler things save a lot of page space, especially when a large
picture is used. That, or multiple pictures or videos. Spoilers hide those so
that people don't have to look at the eyesore when scrolling around.

You know what I think that is a tremendous use of them, I really do. But I was still hoping that you could find it within you heart of hearts to allow me the pleasure of avoiding all sorts of horrible spoilers by also (this is in conjunction with your use of them mind) using spoiler tags for spoilers.

Plus to avoid confusion how about we mark when something is an actual spoiler and when were just hiding something that would inconvenience others loading times, anyone with me?

Really? Thank you Captain Obvious. This is Sidekick Oblivious signing out!

Sorry, it's just I couldn't really understand what you were trying to say in your previous post.

For some it is hard but keep at it and maybe one day you can reach understanding.

Dark Fury Dragon · May 30, 2011 6:07 PM

I took a couple quizzes for which MLP pony from this show I am. I got Twilight The Unicorn for my first one, and got Fluttershy on a different one. I think Fluttershy is more towards me than Twilight. But then again, I don't really know how each of the ponies are.

No need to get angry. Run-on sentences happen to the best of us.

Taking a detour from this off-topic subject to get to highway which is the subject:

Did you guys know there are entire facebook group wars between people who like MLP and hate it? :-P

I can't find a point in that sentence that suggested anger, perhaps your bad reading skills catching up on you again? Happens to the best of us mate.

Topic? What’s that?

Sounds entertaining to see. Too bad i'm not allowed on Facebook.

Swaffy · May 31, 2011 4:31 PM

I just don't care about it enough [or at all] to go looking for fan wars.

Clock-la · May 31, 2011 4:33 PM

I like the no no pics people make smile they make me happy big_smile

Dark Fury Dragon · May 31, 2011 6:06 PM

I just watched my first MLP episode on tv right now. It's alright, but I don't know what all the hype is all about. I think I saw the deviantART account of the producer of the show sometime ago. Not sure though. I do like her style of the ponies.

One funny fact when I was watching the episode, the Civil Emergency Alert System went off. It caught me by surprise for a moment and scared the crud outta me, but quickly saw it was a test. It was funny because they were playing a song about believing in love during the test and it was interrupting MLP. The ponies are taking over the world! RUN!

You're trying too hard.* Go back to your spam forum and shout swears at Clock-la in Klingnon.

*that's what she said.

Take the bickering somewhere else, please.

The first two episodes aren't really like the rest of the series. I said the same thing after watching the first two. To be honest, I really wanted to like it because the art style was so cute and I wanted an excuse to draw the fan art. Ended up loving it after watching a few more episodes after the first two.

And yeah, fyre-flye on deviantART is the creator of the show.

Leo · May 31, 2011 9:32 PM

It's a cool show in my opinion. Took me a little bit to get into it though.

Dark Fury Dragon · May 31, 2011 9:34 PM

Well I'm not sure what number episode it was. You probably mistook me for saying I saw the first one. It was the one with Applejack taking down these apples on all these trees by herself and begins to get really tired. When she helps the other ponies, she makes a lot of mistakes and causes trouble.

But yes, her style is pretty nice. It's like how I wanted to draw for a while.

Pony fandom is hard to explain.

I still can't express with words why and how I love this show.

And every time I try to share the magic with someone else, they just don't 'get it'. And it's kind of frustrating sometimes, especially when they get the feeling I'm trying to cram it down their throat. But here are the things I am sure of:

- It's a kids show that takes kids seriously
- The characters are drawn cute, and it's human nature to be attracted to cute, even if your a dude.
- Flash animation has a style that is memorizing at times. Like, it's a simple easy animation that is able to details some things several other types of animation find difficult to illustrate.
- No one episode will win the heart of a viewer, because people can like this show for more than one reason.
- Some people like the show but can't get passed the fact that it's ponies. It's why the internet is so awesome.

RangerOfIthilien · May 31, 2011 10:00 PM

I like the second to last point you made riverhippo. It seems like it takes about three episodes for the conversion into bronyness to occur.

It's one of those things you either like or just don't.

- It is much more serious than other shows of its nature. Other TV shows should follow this idea.
- It depends on the context it is in. If you look at a puppy, most will think cute is good. Go into a haunted house and people will say cute is bad. A TV show isn't on any of those two extremes, so it is a matter of opinion whether cute is "attractive".
- It is a very different type of animation. I think it is mostly the color palette they use though. They use a much wider range of colors than most shows do.
- I've seen each episode you posted in the youtube thread plus one of the newer ones. I still don't think it is good.
- I don't mind that they are ponies. It's just the characters are very rigid in their personalities and don't seem to have much development. I can't stand anything without character development, and it seems only Spike and Twilight have any sort of non-cutout personalities.
