So this is something I struggle with quite often; exposing friends and family to the show in hopes that they will like it and want to continue watching it with me. Whenever I approach them about it they are hesitant and I almost have to "convince" them to give it a shot. I use quotations around convince because I'm using that term loosely, because honestly who needs to be convinced to watch something? But as we all know when we want to show someone ponies, with the hopes that they will like it, we know there's a barrier in their minds to overcome. To accept that they'll be watching the children's show that GASP! they might actually enjoy! I've only have successfully gotten one person to like ponies, enough to have a conversation and watch new episodes with, and that is my fiancè. (Praise Celestia it was him because that makes it so much fun!) But for example I tried to have my IRL BFF watch the first couple of episodes and I just feel like it wasn't given a unbiased shot. I have also accepted the thought that not everyone will like or connect with the characters, storyline, etc. And that is fine with me. But when I feel like the person is closed minded and watching it just for my sake, they're really missing out and they make a misinformed decision. So I ask, how do you go about exposing friends or family members to MLP, that you'd like to share the magic of friendship with? How many friends have you "converted" to become bronies or someone that is at least interested in MLP enough? -

S01:E03 - The Ticket Master
Rainbow Glitterswirl replied to NavelColt's topic in Season 1 Discussion
Is it just me or did you also find this episode to be a bit of a let down from the drama and action in the two part first episodes? I was sitting here just now trying to get my best friend to be open to ponies and trying to get her hooked on it, and I just felt that after the setup episodes with, the climax and action, of them that the third episode was just too far of a drop. I give them credit for jumping right into the first friendship dilemma, the execution of the subject matter and the outcome, of TS choosing not to go when her friends couldn't, but I felt it may have been out of place. Does this make any sense? To summarize, for someone trying to get a friend hooked on ponies I feel that the first two episodes are action packed, attention grabbing and not what people come to expect from a show about ponies. Then to get to the 3rd episode and have it settle into the lessons so quickly I felt like it wasn't a good attention keeper. -
Hooves down, I have the best special somepony (fiancè) ever! On his way to work today he got a call from his leader telling him to take the day (nbd he's a server) and he accepted. Then proceeded to go to Krispy Kreme AND Panera and shower me with sugar and carbs!
Bagels and donuts for the win!

I felt similar, I was happy to see the cmc's finally get their cutie marks and their sisters (including RD) telling them how proud they were got me welling up, Tiaras song was almolst more of a relief that shes really not the brat deep down we thought her to be. Thanks for replying! -
Awe BBBFF is definitely a sweet one and I could see how it could be very emotional. I'm the eldest in my clan so I can only imagine. Thanks for replying! Yes Lena Hall did an AMAZING job I even get chills when I hear it! Thanks for replying! Ooo I'll have to go watch this one again, as I can't place the song or episode off the top of my head.m, but I'm sure it is a good one! Thanks for replying! Ah yes, a true true friend! Classic. Isn't it wonderful how in even the darkest times, Daniel Ingram has a way of breaking through to us and helping us in a way? Thanks for replying! Oh I do love You're In My Head Like A Carchy Song, even though I have yet to see the episode. Is Until The End Of Time in the same episode? I'll have to look that one up! Thanks for replying!

Why thank you dahling! I simply adore my comic collection! My comic book shop may have good intentions when it comes to setting aside the different series when hey come out, however I am still ma missing quite a few. It gets rather perturbing after a while. These sound wonderful! I'll have to find them and add them to my collection. Especially the one about Shining Armor and Cadance's teen years. It looks so funny from the excerpt you've given! Thank you for replying!- 23 replies

Let me start off by saying that I have nothing wrong with Rainbow Dash and as a matter of fact I own socks and a shirt that have RD on it! I just have noticed that when I go shopping for pony merchandise, from mainstream stores, it seems like she dominates the adult clothing market. From shirts, to jackets, socks and jewelry, I have found it difficult to find any other mane six character in adult sizing. Now Etsy has a nice selection though, because they're handmade the prices are a bit high, but even then pickings are slim for other characters. Why do you think she seemingly dominates the adult market? Also have you found it as difficult as I have to find plus size, adult pony merch? Am I asking for the moon? Are you finding other mane six clothing and accessories somewhere that I haven't looked? Please share if so!

Oh I'm so sorry to hear this!

OH MAN! These are good ones! I love "you'll play your part" too! And I can't wait to see the episode with Applejacks parents because that song is to die for!
-
The song from the series beginning? Thats a fun one! How come it makes you tear up?

Thank you for replying, I never really thought of fan made music! I was just on another tab in my browser, going to check out pony.fm and see what all the hubbub was about fan made pony music! So I will give those a listen! Isn't it amazing, whether from the show or from fan inspired music, we can get through dark times in our lives from ponies? Thanks for sharing Meson Bolt!

I was inspired by SveciaDash,'s thread of Have you ever cried during an episode, and thought that "Yes I have, but more so from the songs.". I have downloaded and regularly listen to various songs from the show and the movies and there are some that, even though I am not watching it on the screen, make me tear up or flat out sob because of the emotional cord they strike with me. Mine are below, please tell us which ones have made you emotional and why!

I'm back to drawing ponies! I have many a piece from a artistic spurt last year but this time I'm making my OC! Can't wait for everypony to see!

Hi everypony! This may be posted somewhere in one thread of multiple, but I've scrolled through a bunch and can't seem to find what I'm looking for. Hopefully this thread will be a one stop place for newbs like me, who find the resource map down as well. Profile pic dimensions? What file type do you recommend (jpg,png, etc) Cover pic dimensions? File type? How do I get the little saying that some ponies have under their picture in topics? The line of a personal quote right above their forum status (muffin, crystal pony, etc) Thanks a bunch!

(I may or may not be listening to various MLP show and movie songs on shuffle ) Of the different series out there, what is your favorite, or favorites, story line in the comics? Friends Forever: #29 Where Rarity and Maud Pie become close friends. This comic is so tearjerking that every time I read it, yes I read it multiple times, it just restores my faith that those who are quiet, still have feelings even when not outwardly expressed. In the part where Rarity accidentally picks up Mauds diary and starts reading it, Maud is open enough to share it with her. Rarity is brought to tears by what she reads about herself . Maud really likes Rarity and admires her outgoing and perseverance but also sees that she's bringing that out in Maud as well. Friendship is Magic: Oh man how do I choose! There are so many great storyline spending multiple contacts in this series that it's so difficult to choose from, so I'll probably have to just near it down to two. #35-#37 Sombras backstory and Radiant Hope: This backstory of Sombra and Radiant Hope is the sweetest purest form a friendship that I've ever seen. Radiant Hope really sees Sombra for the good pony she knows he is deep down inside. In my opinion the drawings in this comic series get a little graphic as we see in 36 when Sombra goes through how he changed from an umbrum to a unicorn and was placed into the pony world. Even though Hope finds out that they've made him with the intent of evil she knows the true Sombra is a sweetheart and will do anything to defend him. In the end they end up running off together playfully and it's the sweetest version of Sombra that we've seen. #43-45 Worst Assets Waters When the mane six go on what's to be a relaxing spa day at a wonderful flowing spring, trouble ensues when the next day we come to find the mane six's best features turn into their worst versions. Twilight Sparkle, knowing that she is a powerful and intelligent pony decides to become the ruler of Ponyville, Applejack becomes competitive and dishonest, Fluttershy becomes a recluse with her now fierce animal friends, Rarity becomes the most conceited, narcissistic, egotistical pony who thinks she rivals Twilight Sparkle and so on and so forth. It takes Princess Luna interjecting to help the Cutie Mark Crusaders and Spike out but when she herself is seemingly doused with the waters from the spring, everyone believes that Nightmare Moon has returned. But once in the castle Twilight Sparkle seems to call her out and realize that she really is not Nightmare Moon but has been done up with the help of the Cutie Mark Crusaders. But then it's the CMC's that outsmart the seemingly smartest pony in all of Ponyville with a simple bucket over the door trick. It's one of the few times that we get to see our girls in their worst light and actually see that everyone can have a darkside. So please friends! I'd love to hear about your favorite comic storyline, or two , and how they made you feel or see out favorite characters in a different light!

Have you ever cried during an episode?
Rainbow Glitterswirl replied to SveciaDash's topic in MLP:FiM Canon Discussion
I'm pretty sure I have multiple times with multiple episodes that just one doesn't stand out. BUT I cry every time I watch Rainbow Rocks when Sunset Shimmer and the girls realize she is the missing piece and they need her to defeat the dazzlings. When her red is added to the rainbow of colors, it gets me tearing up. Then in Legend of Everfree, the montage at the end when they're fixing up for the event, it's a good welling up there as well lol -

Unicorn naturally . Not only does it make tedious tasks easier, such as making clothing like Rarity does, flinging around multiple pieces of fabric while cutting other fabric, but you can always learn new spells! For example, when Twilight had to learn how to time travel to chase down Starlight. I mean come on! Time travel! It's amazing hooves down. -
Happy morning friends! After the hectic nature of the past couple of days, it's nice to sit in silence and read a book!
Well relative silence, with 3 cats and a dog... lol
