Alright, no.

No.

 

I'm tired of this.

 

Pretty.

 

Damn.

Tired.

 

Call me what you will for pointing this out, but there's gotta be a bazillion topics on here of people trying to destroy and demonize Rarity's character.

 

I'm just going to lend you all some advice:

 

1. Know that it's alright for you to have a negative opinion towards a pony. Any pony.

 

2. Before you go starting a topic/posting on a topic, ranting about said pony, make sure you know what you're talking about it. I've seen it so many times; people bashing Rarity with a gaping hole in their line of reasoning that is often identifiable from the get go. Think it out well in advance before doing this, because YOU WILL rub people the wrong way, no matter which pony it is, and they'll be more than happy to exploit any visible flaws in your thoughts. This goes for any one of the ponies.

 

3. Be sure and think for yourself on the matter; just because you meet a few people who think the same way doesn't mean it's what everyone thinks. I like Rarity best, and I decided that before I decided I was even ready to call myself a brony, let alone talk about the show with other bronies/pegasisters. Analyzing one of the ponies and pointing out flaws alone doesn't make you look smart. It's how well of a job you do analyzing the pony that makes you look smart.

 

4. Make sure you're not just regurgitating something that's already been said. "Oh, she doesn't live up to her EoH, oh, she's vain, oh, she sweet-talked a couple of dudes into doing things for her with her looks" have all been used, and I've personally stomped a few of these into the ground. If you want to call her greedy, just know I've got a 6,000 character list on my computer, ready to fire at a moment's notice and prove you wrong. As for the other things, that's fine; you don't like her for those flaws, all power to you. Free will is a beautiful thing.

 

5. If you're trolling and it's obvious, you'll probably get reported. Even if you're not trolling and you're being rude about it, you'll still probably get reported. Not by me, by someone. Be nice about it, please. If you're nice about sharing a negative opinion on a pony, and someone else gets all pissy and defensive, who do you think is going to look like the asshole? Been there, done that.

 

Now, listen. I'm getting tired of having other Rarity fans come to me, and tell me they're in the closet about being Rarity fans because of stupid crap and hate. Hell, I know a couple on here that are still in that closet; don't you think it's hard enough to have to hide being a brony from everyone else out of fear? I'd like to applaud the ones who make it to where people are still scared to be entirely truthful about their adventures in bronyhood. Good job.

 

Gahh. I'm tired of seeing this happen. I'm just tired of piss-poor arguments, trolls, and having to see other bronies be scared of...well, other bronies, just like we're those asshats on YouTube who cuss you out for having a pony as a profile picture.

 

I'm tired of it.

 

DISCLAIMER: This is a blog I've been wanting to post for a while now. This is not directed at anyone in particular, so please don't take it that way. This has been ongoing ever since I've joined this site, and I've had enough.

Rarity may be one of my favorite ponies, but even I have to admit that her slight lack of generosity is quite disappointing at times. I can think of a couple notable events that proved us wrong, but aside from those scarce events, the rest of the time I'm desperately wanting to see her show her Element more.

*sigh* 

 

Hold up...I'll break out the list, and restore your faith. Gimme a few minutes, K?

 

Also...they all lack in their element at times, just saying, except for Twilight.

While Rarity may not be my favourite, she is definetly up there. I always see Rarity and her fans getting flak, so I feel bad for you guys. But at least you're sticking with her. :)

Old-ish blog, but eh. While Rarity isn't one of my favorite ponies, I'm more or less "meh" when it comes to her at this point really. I kinda have to have some sort of respect for her anyway, one of my real-life friends (who just happens to be from the same town as me, went to the same highschool as me and is also a member of this forum) loves her and is kinda making me otherwise we can't be friends anymore :P

 

From what I understand, you blocked me because I posted a status with a video where Rarity says a Spy line, then this thing falls on her and Twilight says a Soldier insult (both are TF2 voiceovers, with the first related to the notorious Magical Mercenary item.) I posted it as a joke, no harm intended. I can see how you took it as you did, but I Pinkie Pie swear that it was meant to be a joke and nothing more than that.

Well, dude, lemme say this.

 

I've got a really weak heart muscle, right? Myocardium. Like, so bad I have to take a high-dosage blood thinner.

 

But, dude, I'm just 17, and I forget to take it sometimes.

 

On the days I forget to take it, which, that day was probably one of the days, I'm prone to get super-fuckin'-stressed, super-fuckin'-easy :D

 

I mean, your heart starts beating faster when you're stressed, and when my blood is thick, it starts beating extra-fast and extra-hard, because it's weaker and is trying to pump the blood. Like, it hurts me physically if it gets bad enough. (Kimi Sparkles is the only known thing related to MLP that gave me this problem, though.)

 

Rarity-hate is a topic that causes a lot of stress for me. It's not that I care whether or not someone likes our dislikes her, but when they're asshats about it, yeahh. I get offended. 

 

Especially so on days I don't take my blood thinners, which, I'm willing to bet that was one of the days :D

 

I took the liberty of unblocking you, dude :D That was kinda a dick move on my part, so sorry about that :D

Ah, I see. Well, that explains it. And thanks.
