real life bronie friends.

[Lunatic 1,186]

allright. i've been a bronie now for a pretty long time by now.

and i can say with pride that i've converted several people into bronies.

 

its absolutely a lot of fun to talk in pony talk infront of other people because most of them dont know what were talking about.

 

now what i want people to talk about here is their experience with real life bronie friends.

do you go to meetups?

how are those meetups?

have you converted someone into somepony?

your first brohoof?

the love and tolerence of others?

 

all those things i'd like to get to know from you ponies!

 

so i'll start this off a bit.

 

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

i've been a bronie for some time,

i had my first bronie friend when i said that i collect pictures of ponies to troll with on the internet, in fact i was watching the show all along. after i said "lol lets watch the first episodes together" he grew fond of it and come to me a few weeks later saying he saw all the episodes up untill the royal wedding, and thats when i got my first bro hoof.

 

there are some more bronies in my class and i try to talk to them more but some they are a bit shy about their bronieness so i try to let them be a closedbronie if they want to be that way.

 

to bad but i dont go to meetups. for a few reason actually. i dont have much transport, and i never know where or when these meetups are or if they even exsist around here. also i dont really know much about these things from what i see on youtube its a bit creepy if i say so myself with a bit to much obsessed fans. but then again when i hear from people that do whent to these meetups they are always positive. so perhaps i'll try it one time.

 

love and tolerance are my favorite one. i love to troll people on the internet. and i do collect pony picture. already surpassed the 1100 pictures! i made a rule on my facebook. everyone that pokes me gets a pony on their facebook wall. I NEVER HAD SO MUCH POKES! and also never had so much hate. but i am a bronie, i love and tolerate and haters gonna hate right?

 

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

now i know i made a bit of a wall of text here but i got excited to tell and know more about this from you. you dont have to do this much, just a small text will do. but dont hold back if you want to try make it bigger than mine!

 

bro hoof out!

Unfortunately, I do not have the opportunity (yet) to attend meetups. Bronies tend to be rather rare around here, (and meetups even rarer, but I know that there are some because the cashier that checked out some pony toys for me was a total brony, according to my brother who bought them) but I'm trying to get some people close to me to join the herd by being open about it.

 

I do have many brony friends that live across the country however, and if I eventually meet them IRL, it will be only one of the best times of my life.

When I started admiting to being a Brony, a friend of mine confessed that he was a Brony as well and it ended making us best friends. I love trolling people with this stuff and being a brony jumpstarted a revalation that has made my life 20% better, I truely understood the meaning of Haters Gonna Hate. Learning that and how to just not care what people say has made my life alot happier. It got to the point where I'd go over to the kids in my art class trolling me, and ask them, "Can you think of something new to make fun of me for?" I hear the same jokes all the time to where now it's just sad to watch them try to troll me. I don't get to go to any meetups because there aren't any nearby. I'm not sure how close she was or if she really watches but my friend, (mentioned at the start) and I may have converted a girl we're friends with into a pegasister, win. My friend and I brohoof as a greeting, or a congratulations, or a thank you, or when we see something awesome, or just because we can, we brohoof alot and just ignore the guys who try to make jokes about it. Though one guy in our engineering class, is always comming over to my brony and pegasister friends and I and always says, "remember, it's not gay if it a three-way," the last 6 weeks of school I told him, "no, but it is gay to constantly say that to other guys," he never said it again.

 

So lunatic, did I make my post bigger than yours? lol, I even shortended this.

i think its about the same size. but i really enjoyed reading on how you got to meet more bronies and pegasisters a job well done i think. also the concept of haters gonna hate is truly something a lot more bronies need to understand and i think you got what it takes.

Ehm... I have one brony friend, he was the one converting me actually. I have ponies on my FB and everything and not one single friend knows what it's all about... It's kinda strange... I guess they are not on the internet. I have not got an brohoof yet (lol me and my friend don't do brohoofs for some reason...). Two classmates know what it is though (I told them about it) and they accept it. One of them are "almost" a brony now too, he have been watching a couple of episodes and thinks that it is ok, but he doesn't have much time and will be waiting a little before he watches the rest of them.

 

I have not been to any meetups... And I don't think that there have been any in scandinavia yet, but I would love to go someday

do you go to meetups? - Unfortunately, there are none around D:

how are those meetups? - ---

have you converted someone into somepony? - Yes, four people. One of them is one of my best friends. At first, he didn't want to know me anymore when I told him I liked it.. But just a few days after he loved it.

your first brohoof? - I don't remember D:

the love and tolerence of others? - I do. I think it is important

Thanks hearing people like you say that helps take the edge off of things people say, on my own I don't think I'd have made it, the friends I mentioned made it alot easier for me... (lol, I just realized I'm listening to the song "How to Save a Life" by The Fray and it's a perfect song for how I'm feeling )

It's good to have real life brony friends, I remember going through a dry period in my life when no one around was a brony and there were many neighsayers and parasprites. But eventually I found there was a brony group page for bronies who live in the city a half hour away. I started going to meets and making real life brony friends and the rest is history.

[Elizapony 234]

My husband and I are definitely brony and pegasister. My 3 year old daughter is too We have two brony friends that we occasionally game (DnD) with, and it always ends up a fun discussion. But they were the ones who converted us. We haven't converted anyone else yet, but my mother is getting interested. Mostly for the grandchildren, but hey, gotta start somewhere right??

[Glaceon 793]

Well in a game called League of Legends some of my classmates decided to change their names, this was the result. (I dident know till they name changed.) (Lord is our clan tag)

 

 

 

So of course i followed suit and changed my name to Lord Twilight.

 

Meet ups.

We have meet ups every day during class.

Love and tolerance level.

We ignore the people that try to make fun of us they stop after a while.

First brohoof.

Ummmmm i guess mine was a virtual brohoof.

We were playing a game of LoL and i basically saved 2 of them in a teamfight. So the brohoofed me.

First RL brohoof.

I wrote down in an essay about "How does the modern world's law compare to the olden times" (I think that was the topic) that our laws are 20% cooler. Got brohoofed.

Converted DualEdge

Long story short, I don't have any active friendships

 

short story longer, (not much friendship here..., more personal story?)

I'm really bad in maintaining them from my side, it needs Way too much effort from the other side to maintain it. I'm just way to used to suffering alone and enjoying the experience (both good and bad I enjoy)

 

Now I have openly talked/pushed ponies on others. Though I just graduated and so I don't have a class any more to be social with.

None of them were bronies though, and usually I mixed MLP more as laughing material by making fun of myself (did that before already though ). So at least they got some enjoyment out MLP

 

But those times are over, it's just me and my internet connection, just like everything seems to be for me

I also probably won't go to any meetups. I'm not quite suited for unknown interaction and the effort of anywhere has always been a problem for me. I only really enjoy simple walking (no crowded cities for my walks!)

 

Call me a loner, because probably I am have always... been.... (with mingling/social capabilities though)

Heh, it maybe counts for both offline and online situations. Though forums manage to be an outlet for me, since it's public Indirect communication.

 

(I tend avoid clans/guilds and even ignore friend invites in the games I play) Being that random person sitting silently looking at the situation and juding it who happens to come with some lines of text from time to time seems to describe me somewhat.

 

 

I have always made it hard for myself, I enjoy the "suffering", the peaks and valleys. I simply want to experience everything. Walking every path, as a way to find/create my own path. Though with my own sense and ideas behind it of course.

 

PS: Got to be honest. typing things like this, do make me nervous, being "vulnerable" not knowing reactions. I always try to shape my behaviour so I can expect certain reactions. But that usually applies easier to real-life.

There would be the reason I delete around 90% of the posts I type... but sometimes I just bite the bullet and if you're reading this, then you know I bit it and am probably shaking in my chair...
