Don't get me wrong, I know there's a whole story we're not getting anything about, I'm just relaying what I was told by a brony-hater that was actually civil enough to have a conversation about it without exploding
>.<. I'd love to actually get the full story about it, but I don't like having friends pull up past drama. Especially when it deals with past friends.
I'm just going off of everything that I've experienced personally with people here. I'm not saying everyone feels this way, but I've seen stuff like this happen all my life. I agree with this point too, hating an entire group because of a few reactions is definitely not an outlook on life that's in any way shape or form healthy.
Yeah, I've told him the same things, and I try not to pry into people's "private time" and asking about such things. I felt a lot of his arguments were quite unfounded, but I didn't want to prod and poke and get him all worked up over stuff.

and, also, about the "omg, ponies are everywhere, would you please just shut up about it and go away?" This, I feel, is the most rediculous thing I've ever heard. I'm always doing something on the internet, whether it be randomly surfing websites, or just attempting to see where random-youtubing will take me. Before I started watching the show, I hardly saw anything of pony-nature. Granted, I saw random PMVs here and there scattered on youtube, but nothing that made me feel like I was getting flooded by it. It wasn't until I got into the show and actively searching for the stuff that I actually found it.
