So your friends know you're a brony...

[Scootalonathan 46]

Haha, I'm pretty vocal about my bronydom. My entire family knows and I'm fairly certain my entire school knows. :3

 

I've gotten most of my friends to watch and enjoy the show.

 

I get some ridicule for it, but it's always fun to ridicule them back. :A

My friends don't care...

Neither does my family...

Every once and awhile they will sarcastically mock me about it. Honestly, I think my friends are closet bronies...

On rare occasions, I get into somewhat awkward conversations about it. In those situations I usually stay calm, and point out the fact that the following video has a giant dancing and alien fighting robot in it.

[spas-ticShotty 3,584]

Only mah bro Chris and mom know, and they're very cool about, mostly because mah mom loved MLP back in the day and she is just a beast, and Chris finds the show funny, but that maybe because he first saw the show on a YTP ().

 

If mah friends were to know, things wouldn't come out so good, but I'm still trying to think of the positives. A friend of mine named Arturo likes to shout mah name really loudly when I say something silly, and he also pokes fun at a lot of things, and thats in his nature, so he'll probably troll me for being a brony but he'd probably be in disbelief 'cause everyone know me as the avid CoD player who was the worst student last year and was also one of the meanest to teachers (Last year, again )

[~Chaos~ 3,967]

Only my mom knows, and i showed her the forums, I'm pretty much always on the computer so she knows i spend a lot of time on here So It's all good!

[Starshine 16,334]

My only sibling knows how I spend my weekend

My parents knows that their oldest son loves watching candy-colored pony

My IRL friends knows about my weird hobbies and my unusually vast collection of pony gifs

 

 

Hey! At least I didn't spend my time telling others how I loved this show and how their lives are dull if they never watch any FiM

[marlyly 186]

My mother knows but cant understand (she didn't even tried) and she hoped that I'll get rid of this "trupid taste" as soon as possible.

 

My father knows it, don't understand either so he makes fun of it , but in a nice way ( like saying "you are stoopid man, less than I but still stoopid"), my dady's awesome.

 

My little brothers and sisters mock me about it sometime but they are more curious than anything else, too bad they dont understand english.

 

My friends dont realy care, once I asked my BFF to watch the show but we are too diferent and there's no way he can like this stuff.

 

The most "open minded" peoples I know about it are my budies from games workshop, I often nead painting for my pony figurines and they find it preety fun, they even admit that bronies exists.

My friends don't really know. I don't really go around telling people I like this show. I mean if someone asks or I see someone else watching the show. For me that's a little different. My parents know I watch the show, they don't like it one bit but at this point I don't really care all that much.

[Acleps 11]

I've never told anyone, but just recently my mom walked into my room, and I quickly closed my browser (full of ponies), only to realize that the browser was infront of more ponies. So yeah, she saw ponies on my computer, but I don't think she immediately thinks that I love the show.

 

I'd want to tell my friends, but I'm not sure what the proper way of telling them would be. A shirt with ponies would be a good choice, but I have no clue where I could get one without my parents getting to know...

[Mikael 46]

Everyone I know knows that I am a brony... No one cares actually, but I don't think they know exactely what it is. I think they think that I am joking or something, dunno what they are thinking. But some friends know what it is and that I actually watch the show.

[ingster 16]

Well, eatch person I know online knows I am one, I often attempt to pull moves on them to get them to watch it

[RarityTime 25]

At first, no one knew except my friend that introduced me to the show.

 

Now a lot of people know (Including Family)

 

Everyone thinks I'm weird and I've lost a couple friends for that. But I gained many more along the way

[Crystal Sparkle 344]

Only my bestie knows during our spring break, she was very cool with it though. However, she's beginning to just how much time I spend on these ponies...

 

...She hasn't yet to find out about my obsessive affections and deep lust towards Twilight...

[Twi Rubix 726]

My family doesn't really care. My close friends though... 1 is a brony, and the other, well I'm not sure yet. But so far, everyone accepts that I'm a brony.

[DashPony 359]

Most of my friends and family know. I "converted" one of my best friends, and my sister into bronies recently

 

Only people i'm not willing to tell are my co-workers lol

[go away seb 367]

I'm pretty sure that like 3 of my friends at school know I like the show, but don't know the term.

 

My sister and brother know. Everyone else, not so much.

[pinkie pie agent of random 8]

I bring up ponies often, and almost all of my friends know that I'm a brony; in fact there was never a stage where I hid it (except from my dad, but he is a manly man and is already very disappoint with my not liking sports). My friends can guess at the extent to which I spend large amounts of time on ponies, but really I only bring it up as much as the other nerdy things that I do.

[NoodleFox 19]

All of my friends and family know. Even my boss and co-workers know since I'm friends with them on facebook and post a lot of pony stuff, but none of them care. One of my co-workers even tolerates my ramblings from time to time since I don't really have anyone to fangasm to where I live (I moved not to long ago and I've always had trouble making friends so without my mom here I'm pretty much on my own). Though honestly I've never been one to go on and on about any of my obsessions anyway. Certainly I'm honest about liking things, but I tend to keep to myself around people who don't directly share my fascinations. Unless you come to my apartment and see all my memorabilia you won't really know how much of a fangirl I actually am.

[Bugz 159]

Nobody knows yet. I wonder how long it takes until i'm caught.

 

 

 

[Cutie 41]

My friends think I'm childish for watching the show, and one of them says it's another "politically correct" show and that ponies are stupid. Not a very warm or accepting response.

[Coal 26]

Truthfuly noone in my family knows about it (I use headphones ) but there are a few people at school who know about it. I never brought it up but just a few days after starting to watch the show and get into the fanbase afriend of mine I was sitting next to in class brought it with with "Hey, do you watch ponies?" I was pretty surprised mainly because it just came out of the blue but ever since I've met a few other bronies around the school and while I'm not one of the outspoken ones I talk to them about it and it's pretty funny sharing inside jokes.

[Extraho Vinco 55]

Everyone I know knows that I am a brony, I flaunt my bronyness everywhere. The responses have been mixed to be honest, but most couldn't care less, which is a blessing i suppose (considering where I live). Most of my firends eather became a brony after I did or were part of the group that got me into the show. My parents have been openly supportive of it (THANK GOD), and my little brother is also a brony (thanks to me xD), which is pretty awesome .

All my friends know and don't seem to care in the slightest.

[Bohtty 1,775]

My friends know I am a brony I poke holes in 100% of their arguments against the show. I dont tell them how much time I spend on bronyness just as I dont tell them how long I take to eat dinner, drive to school, do homework or play games.

 

Psychologically speaking, the more they are around MLP the more they will begin to prefer and like MLP. It's only a matter of time.

[EWAN 31]

Most of my friends know that I am a brony because they are bronies as well...some don't but the majority do.

[MrL0LZ 866]

Only 3 friends know I'm a Brony.

One is my Internet friend who doesn't mind it at all.

Another is my Friend from another school who is also a Brony,

And last but most important I told my Best friend who is A Brony and has a Brony Cousin.

I told my mom about my Interest about it, and she accepted it at first but now she gets upset at me spending all day on MLP.

I haven't told the rest of my family but they have caught on about me liking it, but they don't really care.
