Excuse to leave the house and buy pony merch?

[Goodra 530]

What do I use as an excuse to go to target and/or walmart (besides groceries)?

 

When I buy a pony, how do I get it past my parents and to my room without them wondering what I bought?

 

Where do I hide it in my room?

 

Lastly and most importantly, what do I say if they find it?

1. buying a Christmas present

2. say you need to wrap up the Christmas present tell them its a secret and that it might be for them (its not its for YOU) keep it in the bag, maybe use a non plastic one that you can't see through.

3. under your bed or under anything else.

4. make sure they don't OR if they do Confess your sins, I mean pony love OR Say that a friend gave it to you as a gift and that you want to keep it.

But I'd say Flare has it mostly right

[Goodra 530]

What if it's not Christmas, or in my case where I already did my Christmas shopping ?

I already shopped for everyone tho.

Honestly, hiding the fandom is one of the worst things to do.

 

I would tell your parents because would it not be better to never hide your fandom anymore, to get them to buy you ponies for Christmas?

They'd probably understand why I like the show but probably think it's weird that I want some of the merch which sux. Edited December 13, 2011 by Big Macintosh

You don't think my parents think it is weird?

 

The worst that could happen is that they laugh at you.

"brb buying ponies"

"dude check out these sweet ponies"

 

Where do I hide it in my room?

Put pony stuff everywhere in your room so they won't be able to find the pony that you bought at Target.

 

Lastly and most importantly, what do I say if they find it?

"GAWD I LOVE PONIES"

[Swoop 2,276]

1. When my parents asked me what I was doing, I just told them the truth, no matter how bizarre. They usually just thought I wasn't being serious and laughed it off.

 

2. Either leave it in a safe place outside and go grab it after dark, or if it's small enough just pants it and head straight to the spot you want to hide it.

 

3. The back of a cupboard or under a mattress are the classic locations for stashing stuff, but they generally tend to work well.

 

4. If they find it, there's really no use digging yourself a hole by lying to cover up your tracks. I think the best solution is to just stop being a closeted brony and let your family know; It's going to save you a heap of hassle, and parents reactions are often not even half as bad as you'd think. I know my parents thought it was quite weird at first, but it didn't take them long to accept it once they realised I wasn't going to move on the matter. If you feel confident and content with enjoying the show, then the opinions of others shouldn't really be that significant.

Meh, Im almost on my own in the road of life, there's not really a point in telling the rents. In about a year I'll have my own place, but I still want to buy some merch. just in case it stops being manufactured.

[StarGazer 129]

You can tell them that you want to go browse video games or something. When you picky up a pony, say it's cute, makes you laugh and feel happy and you want to buy it. Tell them you need to buy a toy for a charity drive or tell that you think the toy is funny and wanted to buy it.

I'd tell them that you like ponies, tho. It'll take a lot of pressure off you and you'll feel better not having to hide it. There are worse things to like than ponies. You could be a porn addict or be hiding drugs in your room. I give people I like ponies all the time so you could just say someone gave it you.

[Sageflare 272]

Go say that you want to buy a new game or something like that.

Nope, im 18.

[Finesthour 7,284]

Dude, no offense,but man up and tell them

 

They will not take it as hard as you think.

hmmmm, nah. I might tell them about the show but not the merch.

[Finesthour 7,284]

Why not?

 

What could they possibly do to affect ya?

Ive already got such a good reputation with them tho, Ive almost completely recovered myself from my low attention span (ADD), got all A's in school, and had a cute girlfriend a week ago. I'm a man dangit, a man that adores ponies! I just can't admit it to them, they'd worry about me.

Yes, but it is your life, not theirs.

 

Why should you care what they think of you?

[I used to be a stranger 7,989]

That you're going out shopping for Christmas presents. If they ask who, say it's a secret.

 

When I buy a pony, how do I get it past my parents and to my room without them wondering what I bought?

Buy a cheap video game and can of pop in order to make them assume it's an additional snackstuff.

 

Where do I hide it in my room?

If you still have the boxes for [a] desktop computer/monitor /game system /television, put it there.

 

Lastly and most importantly, what do I say if they find it?

 

Open up and be honest. Lying is the fastest way to lose a friend.

 

If they protest to the interest, then ask them if they would prefer you had a porn addiction. Retort ad ridiculum.

If they ask why you hid the interest from them, explain what you thought they'd react like.

How do you know they'll worry about you? It's just a cartoon show. Everyone likes something that they are socially not supposed to like at some point. You could always buy it, not say anything, and only tell if they ask.

Honestly, I don't think they'll care that much. They might actually think it's cute.

[Demi 545]

Meh ponies don't make you any less of a man, and neither does wearing pink.

 

You should just march in proudly like a boss in a straight bee line for the loot, buy it proudly, put it up in your room proudly, and if people ask shrug if off like a boss, proudly.

 

Or you could just always bulk up to the point where people won't dare to question your masculinity.
