What if, the show never existed. Would you be the same?

Given the finale delt with time travel, I guess this would appropriate to ask. If the show or fandom didn't exist, do you think you'd still be the same person?

 

As for me, I'd say the show has made me a bit more liberal in some sense. However, I've always been easy-going.

Of course I would. The show has not changed me so dramatically that I am now a different person.

If the show never existed, the only thing that would change about me is me not checking this site every day.

Well, let's see, this here fandom was one of a bunch of things that added up together to end up making me less liberal than I used to be. So I'd probably still be a little more naive and a little more liberal if it wasn't for y'all. I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing..

 

Woah, I actually typed this up before reading the OP. Heh, I can see the show doing that, sure. Actually, it probably helped improve me in one of the areas I'm still liberal. But the fandom...

Yeah, I don't interact with the people in the fandom too much. I'm pretty casual.

Yeah, in my case the fandom was one of a few things that broke my "openmindedness" and made me trust people more when they say negative things about a group, instead of just assuming they're being ignorant. And probably some other related effects that I can't quite recall just now. (It's 11:52 PM)

So this is weird, because of the finale, I was thinking of this exact topic a couple of nights ago when I was walking. :o I certainly would not be the same person I am now. This show has changed my life and honestly, it is very difficult for me to think of what my life would be without it. I was thinking of this all through that walk I had and it gave me a strange sensation in my mind. I don't think my life would have many positives right now if not for this show.

I'm not really sure. I truly imagine i would be different as this show lead to a lot of good things in my life mainly from this forums. If i never watched the show then I would of never joined this forums so i would of never made all the friends i have now or learnt from the now broken relationships I had.

Nope. I would be a lot more grumpy, and a lot less cheerful. There's alot that the show, aswell as the fandom and this wonderful forum, has done to change my life. I don't think i would really be "happy" without the show, nor the amazing people in this fandom.

I would never be as close as i'm to my super special somepony midnght frost as i am now if the show didn't exist. We would be friends but i don't know if he would be my boyfriend irl and if the show didn't exist, this forums wouldn't to and i would probably be a little bit depressed, because if i didn't know what to do someone here allways was there to help me out. And my english would be even worse as it is now ;)

And i would also probably be a hardcore otaku, because i would have much more time to spend watching anime :D

No trust me, before the show I was some insecure over-masculine jock that liked to be a d**k to feel better. I didn't even want to babysit my cousin that day and watch the show premiere with her, but now I'm totally the opposite, I am completely secure in my adoration of cute ponies and I live by "love and tolerate". So the next time you don't want to do something, you should do it, you and your whole view on the world could change.

Well I wouldn't be the exact same person now, would I? I wouldn't have met this wonderful community, met some great people I can call friends, have a few less collectibles in the room. :P I'd basically be down a fair few good experiences in my life.

 

And as the season finale showed; who knows what such little changes could've had on my life? :blink:

That is a difficult question actually....

 

Back in 2012 I used to be a lot more closed minded person than I am today. I'd say over these past few years I've def. changed as a person. I'm not so sure if the show had any affect towards that.

Without ponies, I wouldn't have met some 90% of my friends, gotten back into the art scene ( I had stopped drawing for fun before ponies came into my life), I wouldn't have gotten back into role playing, and possibly most importantly, meeting my sometimes gf [Melody].

 

It's made my life so much more positive, I can't really imagine life without this show, or this fandom.

Love you all <3 :yay:

Mlp:FIM taught me real friendship.

Without it, I don't know...

I wouldn't have many friends, and I would be kind of shy, low self esteem... well, a lot of negative things.

Oh, and I wouldn't be able to chat on this lovely forum, with such nice ponies like you. :ooh:

This show has changed me so much, in a lot of different ways. Im not as insecure as I was before, Im not as ignorant as I was, and Im definitely way happier than I've ever been. I can't give thanks enough for what the staff have done and everything else pony related, even this forum, have played a part in it.
