Nas 2,874 April 30, 2012 Share April 30, 2012 (edited) How do you feel as a brony when you hear familiar terms or phrases that can be taken out of context to be references to MLP on commercials, speeches, etc.? For instance, on UPS or FedEx commercials, being postal services, they usually talk about things such as "free shipping" that immediately gets my attention. I don't know, does anyone have any other experiences like this? Edited April 30, 2012 by NASCARFAN160 My journey in the fandom started on April 5, 2012. I joined here on April 24, 2012.

Swordfishtrombone 384 April 30, 2012 Share April 30, 2012 It doesn't really happen very often... free shipping is a very broad, standard term. Only if they said brohoof or everypony, and they wouldn't. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xanthous 44 April 30, 2012 Share April 30, 2012 Shipping exists since forever, so it isn't really a MLP reference. Meh, i can't see or hear the word "brownie" without thinking of "brony" Yes, i recall when my sister made brownies. I couldn't stop laughing.

Chrysalisa 60 April 30, 2012 Share April 30, 2012 Well, whenever I'm playing Halo or something and I see that someone's service tag says Derp, I always think that they are a brony. Most of the time I am not as lucky as thought. ;_; Xbox | YouTube Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nas 2,874 April 30, 2012 Author Share April 30, 2012 Shipping exists since forever, so it isn't really a MLP reference. I mean, when the term is used in, like say, a UPS commercial postal purposes, it just gets my attention, being a brony and all. That's what I man by "unintended references".

Nas 2,874 April 30, 2012 Author Share April 30, 2012 Here a few items named after the historic Pegasus in a few Nintendo games.... For instance, in Zelda there are the Pegasus Boots (boots that make you go very VERY fast....I didn't think Pegasi were known for aging fast, but one that I know is. ), and the Wings of Pegasus or something from Kid Icarus.

cuteycindyhoney 13,336 May 2, 2012 Share May 2, 2012 http-~~-//www.youtube.c...h?v=iyC2ccF_-Pc "Shrek The Third" came out in 2007. "My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic" came along in 2011. The dialog is real. Shrek didn't want to admit he saw a baby carriage in the fire, so he came up with something he thought sounded mystical. This doesn't even count as a concordance because the movie is 4 YBP (years before Ponies). I still have some folders and stuff with generic rainbow ponies on them. Rainbow Dash is the best Rainbow pony, but she isn't the only one! Thank you Sparklefan1234!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ant 3 May 25, 2012 Share May 25, 2012 People used to talk about twilight a lot, and i often joined in just for fun and said things like "i think she has the strongest magic of them all, but i think RD is way cooler" and they would go all "WTF" Taring reality apart with tardis completion: 100% Trying to find dimension where Equestria is located: - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paleopony 733 September 9, 2021 Share September 9, 2021 (edited) Yes. I immediately think of MLP when I hear the words: twilight, discord, luna, rarity, rainbow, equestrian, and ponies. Edited September 9, 2021 by Paleopony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
