  1. However, in a society that values conformity. I believe that we would still trend toward that dystopian place even if people were to chose their own traits. The thing with equality is that most of the time, it's a total farce. This is due to the fact that the process in order for equality to be established involves vesting most of the power a group holds into one entity. Oftentimes one who ends up being corrupt and thus worsening the problem you set out to solve. That's the beauty of the starlight ep, most people never think of that aspect of equality, that there is an inherent downside.
  2. Do I want to change myself at all? No. Even ethically I feel that even with the ability to reprogram others and ourselves to meet socially accepted standards, we would be effectively stifling out the creativity and individualism that makes every one unique. A good example of this is with Starlight Glimmer. She created a society where everyone thought, acted and looked the same and it turned out to be a dystopian place due to the fact that our individual talents and flaws are what make up our unique personality and therefore enhance collective creativity and individualism as a whole.
  3. Went through my "Trying to be Black phase" (I'm white) in middle school. Closet brony phase (something I probably will be stuck in forever) Welcome to the dark side ^.^
  4. yeah, I might go with a lot of y'all's advice and just put "Fan Convention" or "MLP Fan Convention" and if anyone asks how I got to volunteer, I can just say that my friend said they needed first aid people and I was happy to take any position anywhere (not entirely untrue as I did find out about the convention as a whole from a friend of mine). I guess I was originally overthinking this when I asked this question. I'm used to a lot of the hate on the internet for this fandom (when I post in other areas of the internet with a pony pic as a profile) and I figured that most strangers IRL think and say the same thing (I'm entirely "in the closet" lol). But after browsing through some of the threads here, People really don't give a shit if you don't give a shit about what they think.
  5. True. There is an entire possibility that they will simple glance over my experience. However, what would be the most appropriate thing to say if they are like What is Ponycon?
  6. I totally understand that. More than likely if my application were to be denied, it's due to my lack of experience. Which is my problem. This Volenteer work can put me ahead of other applicants but, again, I'm not stupid. There is a huge stigma surrounding the Brony Community (especially with r34) and that can reflect badly on my application.
  7. Pony Based Discrimination? Better run that by the ACLU first. However, I can try to claim that I have accepted Princess Celestia into my heart and probably get more traction. Lol
  8. So, I'm in the process of applying to a local Ambulance Core. Apparently the application process is somehat competitive and I have very little outside emt experience besides this one time I was part of First Aid for a mlp convention. However, I'm reluctant because I would not want my application to get thrown out because of the stigma that surrounds the fandom. The only upside is that because it's student run, I will be probably explaining what a Brony and Mlp is to people in their 20s and there is a chance they might be a little more tolerant than someone older.
  9. Concerning SOL? I didn't really like the Agent Bon-Bon subplot that occurred as It felt out of place and I doubt it will ever be extended further than that episode. However, maybe Backrounds will play a bigger role in S6.
  10. Pretty generic but off the top of my head maybe Rainbow Dash in My Little Dashie? Rainbow dash didn't seem to deviate from her usual character despite being raised in an entirely different environment.
  11. My Favourite Mane 6 Pony: Twilight Sparkle How did you find MLP Forums?: Volunteering for Babscon and need to find someone with a room to share. How you became a fan of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic: I accidentally clicked on a link to an mlp parody of a college humor video ( It was "the six ponies you will date" lol). At the time, I kinda backed away from it assuming I fell onto the weird side of youtube again. Who would have known that years later that a close friend of mine would sit me down to watch Winter wrap up and I would become entranced by those colorful pastel horses. Ok. About myself. I'm a born and raised Long Islander. I'm currently going to Stony Brook University to do a degree in Economics and pre-med ( weird combo but then again, I'm somewhat a weird guy). Some of my interests include Psychology, Neuroscience and Politics. I originally was dragged into the fandom by one of my close friends, who sat me down to watch an episode and after that, I was absolutely hooked. This was further amplified by a lot of the fanwork such as animations, fanfics and analyses which were not only interesting but also inspired me to attempt my own work. I've never been much of a creative person and the idea of picking up a pencil to write or sketch anything that wasn't required coursework would have been absolutely ridiculous. However, I did write some stories and attempt to do some sketches and despite them being completely terrible (for now, hopefully), I do credit the fandom for giving me the inspiration to try something new and go outside my comfort zone. Fun fact. I also recently bought a ps4 and recently got into gaming. I guess that's about it.
  12. lol it gets significantly worse (I have a 10pg research paper due next week). The best introductory paragraphs start broad and then narrow their focus. So, my suggestion is that you start by describing a event that had significant impact on your life and then narrow down how it shaped you personally. Then go from there.
  13. Welcome to MLP Forums lynndx101. I hope you have a great time here /)
