  4. 346267 Thanks Filly, just durdling online, may as well help. Agreed, beautiful Derpy
  5. Any thoughts on your playlist? How many songs/pieces of music? My suggestion would be Forest Rains version of "Join the Herd" https://youtu.be/ojHbS40ZnqE (This version contains the lyrics) It shows the general populaces opinion of MLP "Everything in here is pink!" and their reaction to adult, especially male, fans. "You know this show's for younger crowds How can you say you're proud?" The protagonists reluctant first viewing "And then you have the nerve... To ask me to observe... These girly things..." and subsequent epiphany "Hey, this show's not bad I'll give it to ya, I'm real glad I never thought I'd like this stuff I thought I was just too tough." Or have I missed the point?
  6. Fingers and thumbs. Anything featured in the show can become part of Brony culture. As the shows content is controlled by the writers & artists and ultimately Hasbro, it's difficult for Brony things to transition into the show (Am I allowed to mention *whispers* Derpy? (I know girl, it's not your fault ;( )) I think we need more examples of how one element influences the other. If something is symbolic in the show it could be symbolic to the Bronies (and Pegasisters) Does that^ lead to further subdivision? Are there things which are symbolic to just the Bronies or just our Pegasisters and not the other?
  7. Agreed, it was reasonably balanced. Yes we saw some people who are a long way down the rabbit hole, but that applies to all hobbies/fandoms. Most people never go to the gym, some people do. There are a few who want to get totally ripped, and there are fewer still who want to get totally ripped, put on their Speedos and parade around in front of similar people at bodybuilding competitions. Some people will always take things to extremes. I believe that it's no longer on YouTube (boo and hiss) Channel4 will want you to be in the UK, so you might get around it with a VPN.
  8. Thanks for the kind words so far, I'll try not to crash and burn or fly too high* *<rant>Rarity's wings wouldn't burn up like that, it's as bad as Icarus!</rant> Hang on, It's just a cartoon. You're worried about physics and meteorology in a children's cartoon... that has talking ponies and magic and magical creatures. Stop thinking and just enjoy it!
  9. My Favourite Mane 6 Pony: Applejack How did you find MLP Forums?: PonyVille FM > Poniverse > Here How you became a fan of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic: Hmm,A while back I saw the MLP card sleeves become available for Magic: the Gathering and thought "I'll get some".I'm happy with my masculinity to play with Pinkie Pie sleeves (some of my favourite things are pink ) and I'm sure they'll get a reaction from other players. "Who's playing with the pony sleeves?"The 6'1", 18st, ex-rugby player says "They're mine... anything else?""Err, um, no":)So, I've been aware of the recent reboot of the series for a while and I saw the Nat Geo documentary last year.It wasn't until a few months ago that I sat and watched an episode, it happened to be S1E4 "Applebuck Season" - I was left suprised at the similarities between Aj and my wife - my wife comes from a farming family, she's a very stubborn, freckeled redhead and isn't really into all that fussy, frilly, pink, girly stuff (she's a Mechanical Engineer).I decided to find S1E1 and binge-watched every episode... and then binge-read the comics... and here I am. Why "DawnChaser"? It was an unused name and it seemed appropriate for a pilot. So a play around with Pony Creator and we get a greying, Ray-Ban wearing pegasus. "Curving on the edge of daylight, til it slips into the void, Waited in the long night dreaming, til the sun is born again." Coming Home - Iron Maiden Q. Anypony ever seen the sun rise in the west? Take-off just after sunset and we can out-climb the rate at which the sun is setting, so the sun rises above the western horizon What else interests a 38yo airline captain? I've already mentioned MTG above, and the nerdish tendancies continue with fantasy board games (Talisman, Warhammer Quest, Space Hulk) and card games (MTG, Munchkin). There are a few non-fantasy games such as Carcasonne, Castellan and Formula De to get the non/less nerdy around the dinner table. Sitting at the PC/Xbox has taken a back seat and is less of a "thing" in recent years, I always enjoyed Counterstrike and FPS's. Thankfully my wife likes RPG's and has joined in with Dark Alliance/Champions of Norrath and more recently Diablo III. TV will usually default to comedy/cartoon or documentaries, although I enjoy The Walking Dead/Breaking Bad/and similar. Monty Python, Black Adder, Bill Bailey, Eddie Izzard, Futurama, the Aquabats! Almost Naked Animals, Sponge Bob. Almost any thing by the BBC factual team. Films don't have to contain explosions/car chases (Bond/Bourne/etc) as I'll happily watch most Pixar things. Now finding myself "into" MLP I'm reminded of the exchange between Colonel Sandurz and Dark Helmet in Spaceballs [Lord Helmet is playing with his dolls in his quarters when Col Sandurz bursts in] Col Sandurz: Lord Helmet! Dark Helmet: WHAT? [Helmet quickly gathers up his dolls] Col Sandurz: You're needed on the bridge sir! Dark Helmet: Knock on my door! Knock next time! Col Sandurz: Yes, sir! Dark Helmet: Did you see anything? Col Sandurz: No, sir! I didn't see you playing with your dolls again. Dark Helmet: GOOD! [Col Sandurz slams the door] Iron Maiden have already gotten the nod above, AC/DC, Motorhead, Led Zep and The Who can be found on the stereo when it's not tuned to Planet Rock or more recently Wonderbolt Radio online). Of course, mentioning Planet Rock, it would be remiss to not mention Alice Cooper and the recent pic of him with the Alice Cooper inspired plushie pony Pleased that the Rugby World Cup kicked off last night with a win for England, having played at school/college/university it's good to have a bit more attention on rugby than the usual "football, football, football" in the UK. I've done my time standing in the rain in the Welsh forests following the World Rally Championship "Ooh! Look at me driving around this nice flat piece of tarmac with gravel traps and crash barriers. Pah! Let's have snow/ice/gravel, tarmac/sand/water splashes to drive on and cliffs to roll off and trees and ditches to crash into." So, a blokey bloke who flies aeroplanes and likes a laugh... ...and MLP. Who'd have thought it. (Well done if you read all of that )
