Kinda tardy on the whole welcoming thing....

[William 1]

Alright so, if you woukd;ve told me two years ago I;d be writing a welcome post on anything pertaining to My Little Pony, I would've called you crazy, but of course, here we are. Might as well flesh out the good stuff and leave the rest for later. I am a web developer/designer, budding animator, writer of both fiction and political op-eds, and an unemployed 20-something renting from his mother and father-in-law.

 

Recepie for sucess right? Alright, here's some pony facts:

 

Favorite Pony: Twilight f--king Sparkle.

 

2nd favorite pony: Rainbow Dash & Pinkie Pie (tie?)

 

Least favorite character: Rarity or Applejack.

 

Favorite Episode(s): Yikes, uh...."Owl's well that ends well", "Canterlot wedding 1 & 2", "Pilot (Freindship is magic 1 and 2", "Lesson Zero", and we'll also say "It's about time".

How I watch the show: YouTube. Comcrap and Charter both lock The Hub to some pie in the sky package we don't need so...I get my pony form the internet. I own both season 1 and season 2 in HD thanks to iTunes and their inflated prices.

 

How'd you become a brony? To keep a long story short, I was reading about Luaren Faust on Wikipedia while looking up Foster's Home or Imagionary Friends -another show I liked- and somehow I read about her then upcoming My Little Pony series. I initially thought it would be some puffball corporate consumerist trash with bad animation, gaudy writing and no substance....I was wrong watching the first episode on premiere day...hooked ever since.

 

One thing I dislkike about MLP?: If there is one thing I hate about MLP, it's this. They have a princess, a monarchy, they bow, show subservience and worship her. As an anarchist, things like this bother me. Now obviously Hasbro doesn't have some conspiratorial agenda, what frilly show would be complete without princesses and royally and shit? I just see it as a message to people that absolute power is legitimate, for a show that preaches friendship, non-aggression, and what appears to be a gold-based society, they forgot one huge part....anarchy. Oh well, still ove the show regardless.

Welcome fellow web Developer and Brony!

 

I hope you won't regret coming here, and I am sure you won't, it's really fun.

I would have given you a welcome song but...

Least favorite character: Rarity or Applejack.

 

 

 

Just Kidding you can have it anyway.

Welcome William! Great to see another Twilight fan!

The monarchy thing doesn't really bother me probably because I'm from Australia and were part of the commonwealth. I can still kinda see your point though, truth be told I haven't given it much though before.
