    I'm generally a cheery person, but I'm also manic depressive. When I get into one of my funks I've always had a really hard time getting out and there really never was an easy fix. That's a little different now, I don't think that I'm actually able to ever cure a depressive fit with ponies, but I can always mitigate it so my highs can go higher without my lows getting lower. There's a lot of time spent doing things that I enjoy that I've been feeling is wasted, but that is never true about mlp. There is always something about the show that works, whatever the mood I'm in its always a little better after watching it. Also welcome to the forum Snowdust!

    as long as the ponies don't go back to looking slightly terrifying (I really don't like the kind of realistic horses) then I would at least give it a shot.

    I was actually thinking of Buddhism and Taoism when I thought about this. And in response to the agnosticism thing...I'm kind of half way between it and atheism because I really do want to believe in something, but I realized that deep down I don't. still it's nice to use faith when you need it. It's kind of like an equipable buff for me. Usable when I need it.

I thought of this a while ago, and it's kind of a poem, really more of a monologue. I just thought of how terrifying it would be to drift away emotionally, physically, and what it would mean to lose my senses. I don't consider poetry my forte, but I dabble a little. Comments are appreciated, and hopefully I'll be posting more here soon, most likely original stories.

    fanmade episodes would be interesting, but I fear for what would happen if the memetic humor got too far into it. One of the reasons the show is great is that, while it does respond to the fandom, it doesn't pander to it.
  6. pinkie pie agent of random
    This theory is spot on, and I'm so glad to see that other people have the same ideas about the force of personality and its role in explaining attraction. Twilight and Pinkie mixed are probably my perfect girl because I need someone who can work hard and likes to learn, but randomness and willingness to try anything is important too. I actually didn't like rarity all that much for a while, until she started being stronger, especially with the diamond dogs. I really think this is because the helpless type used to be the type I thought complemented me, but now I cannot stand them, and thankfully she ended up not being one of them.

    Korra is probably going to keep me going, I've also started looking into old animation, so that backlog should keep me busy. Hang out on the forums. Oh. And write, that should keep me plenty busy.

    you know, this actually really could work for me. I have kind of wonky ideas about religion; I am an atheist, but I reeeeeeeeally want something to believe in. believing, or rather having the ritual of belief, can make things easier, but I have an extremely hard time actually believing in any type of higher power. So in this case I think the most "practical" form of this religion that I could see would be more of a philosophy extolling the virtues of Celestia. Or better yet, what if this religion had Celestia and Luna at its center, and then the mane 6 were kind of like Saints? each one of them is already an element of harmony, so you could just expand what that term means in the context of this philosophy. This really isn't anything I could believe in, especially since we're all the ones coming up with the ideas, but I could see it being extremely...useful? I kind of feel like just having this philosophy would help be sunny and happy in the face of adversity and to remain accepting in the face of intolerance. This could be what takes the place of traditional faith for those who couldn't find anything in it before, at least for me.

    What I think is interesting is that ponies are never going to be the same. I think that the fundamental aesthetic of MLP is different because of FiM. I don't think that any show would be able to go back to the way the old seasons were (for good reason in my humble opinion ). I think bronies are going to continue after the show because I think there will be a new show, There may be new characters and a new equestria, but I feel like the fundamental aesthetic has permanently switched and gained longevity.

    I'd be interested. Is this guy okay? Chillax Pacify http://mlpforums.com/page/roleplay-characters/_/chillax-pacify-r77 He kind of has a similar type of levelheaded vibe that mindbuck has, but I hope that he'd be interesting enough to still be different?

    the applejack and Big Macintosh role reversal was the absolute highlight of the episode for me, something that made me absolutely laugh out loud. Honestly, I usually see the CMC episodes like this. 1. episode starts up and its a fairly tired trope that has the potential to be really boring 2. good humor carries the episode for a while 3. trope starts to get old 4. clever writing saves it and makes it actually a good episode that sticks in my head. Every time I see the CMC I think I'm not going to like the episode, and every time mlp proves me wrong. so points for that
  13. pinkie pie agent of random
    The show is definitely having an effect on me. I have gotten so much happier and generally have more of a sunny disposition than before. I really used to be a doom and gloom type of guy, but now I know to smile smile smile!
  14. pinkie pie agent of random
    that is all
  15. pinkie pie agent of random
    I'm a fairly open brony, so sometimes it just slips out, but the thing that I always do is "eeyup" and "nope" in Big Mac's voice. Some of my friends just think it's a thing I made up
  16. pinkie pie agent of random
    too bad about the reading thing, there really are some good books out there. But that book is precisely where that nickname comes from. This guy has nothing in common with the character, but for some reason he gets called Ponyboy all the time
  17. pinkie pie agent of random
    I have the best one. I have a friend that has the nickname "ponyboy" that he absolutely hates, and he knows I'm a brony. I made a joke that if he watched the show and liked it that nickname would never go away. That delayed his watching the show by a week but then he said "fine, I'll watch it and hate it and get this over with and get rid of the nickname" He calls me later the very same night saying "I am calling you to tell you how much I love the show and how much I hate you." I just said: "Welcome to the herd Ponyboy."
  18. pinkie pie agent of random
    Something that I realized while watching the show was that every time. EVERY TIME, I thought I was getting sick of a pony suddenly there would be a focus episode about them and I would be entirely on board. Rarity originally got on my nerves, but then she had the episode where she wined her way out of the diamond dogs. Pinkie Pie was originally my least favorite pony and then there was the parasprites and the pinkie sense and every other crazy thing she randomly knew how to do. Even when applejack was getting a little boring because she's kind of the "always good pony" we had the "I didn't learn anything" letter to Celestia. I don't think that it's just the breaking of stereotypes that makes MLP a better show, I think it's the legitimate depth that goes into revealing more about the characters.
  19. pinkie pie agent of random
    One of my friends was an anti-brony because another brony tried to shove the show down his throat. I told him he can't talk about the show until he at least watches four episodes. I think he's a closet brony now. Also, one of my other friends is watching the show because of me, even though he already knows all the music from season , car rides with me are full of PONIES.
  20. pinkie pie agent of random
    I know that I would! I feel like the conventional heaven would get really boring without any conflict, but equestria is just a generally nicer place. With the trials that go on every day life would stay interesting. I feel like I'd enjoy multiple lives in equestria: go there and then get reincarnated. Singing winter wrap up just seems more fun than singing hymns
  21. pinkie pie agent of random
    I'm completely open about being a brony around my friends, (my dad is one of those people who would be really angry for some reason) and I talk about mlp around them some. I do always preface what I say with: if this is too much ponytalk for you then you can stop me.
  22. pinkie pie agent of random
    Said to a friend after he gave me a WTF? "You sir, have made a fan troll for homestuck."
  23. pinkie pie agent of random
    I think a couple episodes where we just follow around some of the side characters would be really cool, like maybe the mane 6 are off doing something not so interesting, so we follow zecora, then a luna and celestia episode.
  24. pinkie pie agent of random
    I'm new here but I'm kind of interested, seems like a pretty fun mashup possibility
  25. pinkie pie agent of random
    Hey everypony! I just joined because I needed more people to talk about this amazing show with. I freaking love animation and, even though I'm a guy, I've liked quality shows even if they are labeled as stereotypically "girly." I really love the world building that this show does and how it turns possible one note characters into much more multifaceted and interesting personalities than first thought. As for me. I like to write and game and generally do all sorts of generally nerdy things. I've Gm'd a bunch of RPG's so I really can't wait to get involved in some of the RPing around here! Welp...maybe and explanation of my username? Okay...when I first started watching the show I really did not like pinkie pie. *hides from barrage of cupcakes* Hear me out okay? I saw her ditzy attitude and her hyperactive personality and immediately went "oh damn it...not This type of character again." I kept watching (obviously) and then something happened. Pinkie then had Pinkie sense, and a party cannon, and of course...FOREEEEVEEEEER . Suddenly I was 100% on board with her as a character and freaking love whenever they use her to pull out another little bit of random. So yeah I guess that's it for introductions!
