InsertUsernameHere 149 May 4, 2015 Share May 4, 2015 So I was on my computer and i needed a drink so i got up and grabbed a gatorade from the fridge. I come back to my friend looking at my PC background. Its Derpy looking, well, Derpy. I just sort of brush it off and walk out. But still quite embarrassing. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Crimson Cross 7,532 May 4, 2015 Share May 4, 2015 So my Aunt comes along while I'm busy on my phone and sees my home (not lock) screen of Twilight doing some kind of magic thing. She asks: Aunt: "Is that one of those anime characters?" Me:"Why yes it is" Aunt: "Oh okay then. I thought so. Looks pretty cool by the way" Me:"Oh yeah, anime these days! Hehe! You never know!" End of conversation. Lucky she is clueless though, it sure makes things handy! Still embarrassing though..! 9 Now with more added tea leaves!

Leif 54 May 4, 2015 Share May 4, 2015 Today me and my mom were going to save-on and while we were walking down an aisle she grabs a rainbow dash vinyl figure and says in a teasing voice that she should get that for my birthday. I know she's found my fanart of the crusaders so for a second I looked her straight In the eye with an "are you serious" look. But then realized she was clueless and I just followed along acting like I do normally when she teases me. That was the closest call I've ever had. 9 "I see now that the circumstances of one's birth are irrelevant, it is what you do with the gift of life that determines who you are" Click on my dragon to help him grow!

SkullcandyPegasus 603 May 4, 2015 Share May 4, 2015 How about when you show people your music and completely forget about the pinkie pie samples? Or when you show your parents your sat scores (which were sent by email), and you forget that your inbox is mostly equestria daily? There have been way too many close calls actually ... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleMac 3,085 May 4, 2015 Share May 4, 2015 My friends were messing with me and took my phone to look at my history, you know, 'oh, let's see if you're hiding anything dirty' and stuff like that. They just got confused when they saw all the weirdly named youtubers like 'ShadyOak' and other brony reviewers. I nearly died but thankfully they didn't get the chance to find anything incriminating XD 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good thing I have a separate e-mail for brony stuffs... --- I was in the study room of the school which is a large room at the entrance of the school library. The library was closed at the time and I was sitting near the entrance. Nobody else was sitting at that row of seats. This actually gave me a vantage point of sorts as I could see people coming my direction and those in the row in front of me won't be able to see my laptop screen. I had been browsing for pony pictures when a classmate walked in. Due to bad eyesight, I only recognized him when he was half-way over and I kinda got frantic. At first I Showed Desktop but then decided I wanted to close all tabs because you can't be too sure. I think I remember missing the [X] button so I had to drag the cursor over to the new window and try again. Well, I panicked and the guy noticed, giving me a weird look :okiedokielokie: Disaster averted But just barely. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grepper 3,192 May 4, 2015 Share May 4, 2015 Isn't this similar to the "Embarrassing Brony Moments" thread? Maybe it's distinct enough that it doesn't require a merge. Anyway, I restored a somewhat old (last modified on March 22 of this year) file from my computer's backup that I deleted recently because I thought it might be worth sharing here. I haven't edited it since March 22. I went to Wal-Mart with my parents to get my eyeglasses repaired, and to look for birthday presents for my brother. After dropping the eyeglasses off at the Vision Center, I asked my dad if I could go ahead to the toy section to look for a present, and he was fine with it. When I arrived at the toy section, I shied away from the "girls" aisle, so I went to the LEGO aisle instead. I looked around a bit and slowly went closer to the aisle with the pony stuff (about three aisles away.) A while later I got to the pony aisle which was empty and went up to the blind bags that I was hoping to buy, but I got so nervous that I could feel my heart beating. I couldn't handle it, so I went over to the fish supplies near the toy section. I tried doing it again, but the same nervousness came over me.I don't know if I became nervous because I was worried that my parents would come and see me on the "girls" aisle (it's in quotation marks because I don't believe in gendered toys,) or if I was worried that someone else would see me and think I'm either a weirdo or a sexual predator hanging out on the girls aisle.A stranger couldn't do much if I was buying pony stuff because it's not illegal to buy toys if you're the "wrong" gender for them, but my parents could make life miserable, thinking I'm either gay (sadly not tolerated around here) or immature. I did eventually buy some blind bags, partially to prove to myself that I could get them. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thunderlane 550 May 4, 2015 Share May 4, 2015 I had a Lightning Dust iPod wallpaper, and my dad gave my iPod to me and saw it he said "What's this all about???" And I just shrugged it off. Another time he came behind me when I had my headphones on and I was watching an MLP YTP. He mentioned the time he saw my iPod wallpaper as well, but again I just shrugged it off. My mum was with me when I went to my desktop which had a Princess Luna wallpaper, and I knew she saw it but she didn't say anything. Also my Maths teacher took my phone away which had a Rainbow Dash wallpaper, and he looked at my phone, at me, at my phone again and just chuckled to himself. Nothing more. I'm glad he didn't say anything to the class... My dad goes on the internet a lot, so I'm guessing he'll find out about Bronies sooner or later and I hope he'll make the connection. I just hope he doesn't get a negative vibe from whatever he reads...He probably won't care. He's never really shown any hate towards any fandom, he's not that sort of person. 3 I play loads of Rocket League and GRID 2 on PC if you want to join me at some time.

Shadow Beam 1,179 May 4, 2015 Share May 4, 2015 (edited) My sister's boyfriend snuck up behind me during the crafting of one of my first pony-related pics. He didn't mind, but oh boy it was embarassing. Remembering that moment just makes me cringe. Thankfully I wasn't obsessed with drawing Luna by then. *shivers* Edited May 4, 2015 by Shadow Beam 3 Main OC Shadow Beam EqE OC Astro Shine Deviant Art Hi there.

ThunderSaddle 56 May 4, 2015 Share May 4, 2015 During class, we were working on a project using school laptops. At some point, I had to log in to my Google account to access Gmail. I don't know exactly how it happened, but Chrome decided to sync all my bookmarks. I didn't notice it at first, and during that class we often switch our laptops according to what's available. When I realized later that Chrome had synced all that, I felt quite strange... I don't remember exactly the bookmarks I had back then, but it was pretty hardcore: Rainbow Dash underwear, Applejack mug (wasn't actually planning on buying this but I tend to save lots of things to by bookmarks), some DeviantArt stuff... and of course MLP Forums. Maybe someone has seen something. Maybe not. But that was awkward and hilarious as fuck. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Complexity 181 May 4, 2015 Share May 4, 2015 This thread will have the same story over and over again: "I was doing a pony thing/I had some pony pictures, and someone snuck up on me. Good thing they didn't make the connection." Anyway, here's my spin on the story: I like to listen to the smile song on the bus to school in the morning. One particular morning I had it playing loudly. It must have been pretty bucking loud, because my friend told me to turn it down. Thankfully he didn't know what it was from! 2 From train to Scootaloo.

The voice is especially high-pitched in that one. I was listening to it in the car and my brother told me he could hear it so I must be playing it too loudly. I'm glad he didn't ask what it was.

Ziggy + Angel + Rain 11,302 May 4, 2015 Share May 4, 2015 There was this one close call where I put on a sexy Rainbow Dash t-shirt. And rainbow socks. And wandered into public. Possibly into the "pink aisle" of a local store. And people saw me. Several people. Boy, was that ever a close one! They could've thought I was a Brony or something. :/ Had they cared even the tiniest bit. 6 "It uses the faculty of what you call imagination. But that does not mean making things up.

Raritas 6,820 May 4, 2015 Share May 4, 2015 After being a closet brony for 3 years I've amassed a few awkward moments 1) One of the few people I've told is a bit of an arse at times. He once kept saying really anti-brony stuff around me and my other friends who didn't know, trying to get a reaction from me. I tried to subtly get him to stop by pushing him playfully, but then he started accusing me of being a brony in front of a load of people I knew. I denied it and nothing came from it, thankfully. 2) One time I was watching an MLP stream and my dad walked in. I tabbed out, then when he asked me to Google something I accidentally clicked back on the tab with the MLP stream. He stared at it for a solid few seconds before I subtly-panic clicked away... He never said anything and we carried on. 3) I was in a shop with pony merch. I couldn't buy any, but I wanted to take a picture of it. I took my phone out, took the picture, then as I looked up from my phone this guy working at the shop was giving the biggest death stare I've ever had xD It was a bit awkward, at least for me it was anyway. 6 "Sometimes I wish I could imagine myself 10 years from now, out of college, living life without boundaries. But, at the end of the day, it's just a step closer to the future. The future tends to unfold as it should... well, at least I think it does." - Kitty0706 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mars Orbit 729 May 4, 2015 Share May 4, 2015 *ahem* I was in class watching youtube with my friend. My phone gets emails from this because I only have one (imma dummy like that) and while watching a video two thing happened 1)my ringtone went off which is fine. 2) then on the top of my screen on my notification bar in big white letters. MLP FORUMS. He looked at me and started dying of laughter. He is the only person who I trust with that and I was still scared as hell. 4 My OCs.
