Post your unpopular opinions

[CC_Maud_Pie 6,431]

I like to listen to Erasure. I don't say this as a guy who would consider himself homosexual, i just say this as a guy who enjoys good music. My favorite song by them is a little respect.

Same here and I'm not a homosexual. I guess part of the reason is that I enjoy the genre of new wave/synthpop.

You want another unpopular opinion out of me? 

I absolutely DESPISE labeling ANY of the mane six as worst pony, or even 99.99% of the background ponies for that matter. Do NOT come to me and start saying how bad and disloyal Rainbow is, or how awful and annoying Pinkie Pie is, cause its not worth your breath or my time. If you refuse to look at the positive aspects of a pony and exaggerate their flaws to the point of calling them irredeemable and unforgivable, then that just makes me question your world view and ability to reason effectively. To label someone as worst pony tells me you blanket judge people as well, ignoring their good qualities in favor of the image you have of them in your mind. Would you want someone to so completely condemn you for something YOU did? Would you feel someone parading around your worst moments as a means of labeling you as the WORST HUMAN to be fair and right? 

If no, then Why the hell are you doing it to a cartoon pastel pony who literally did nothing nor COULD do anything against you? 

 

As far as I'm concerned, If you hate a character that much don't even bother watching the show. 

Diamond Tiara is worst pony; I suppose she is part of .01%. i don't have same hatred for Silver Spoon.

 

I consider freedom to be a privilege, not a necessity; it is worth removing freedom if, for instance, it means rapid development for a country that needs it.

OH GOD DIGIBRO. I loved his stuff during S3 and between the S3-S4 hiatus. After that, it became very hard to listen to his stuff. He's like the M.Night Shymalan of the Analysis community.

Yeah I can see it's not for everyone. I certainly didn't used to like it. It was more of an acquired taste I think for me.

The problem with Digi is, that he apparently had problems in his personal lifes and that he also got alot of heat from /mlp/ on 4chan. Sadly, these things have brought him so down, that he can't enjoy the show anymore.

 

I am sorry, but if his emotions are clouding his views, he shouldn't make any reviews. Not to mention i wouldn't give a shit to what /mlp/ says.

Yeah it definitely seemed like he lost a lot of passion for the show. However, I did like the more anecdotal way in which he presented his videos, making connections between the show and his own life. Of course, that obviously isn't for everyone. If nothing else, I appreciate that he tried something new.

 

He's been making some really good anime analysis videos lately though, so I'm optimistic he'll be great to watch if he reviews season 5.

[Light Diamond 950]

I like Crash Bandicoot and Jak and Daxter more than Uncharted and The Last Of Us.

[Glaive9Gko 82]

-- MMDW contained the best Rainbow Dash moment in the entire show.

-- Flash Sentry isn't the worst thing about EQG, and the fact that their relationship seems to be entirely based on physical attraction is both accurate and believable.

-- Rainbow dash is more adorable than Fluttershy

-- Twilicorn was a good idea

-- Digibro and Tommy Oliver are good analysts. Also, the analysis community as a whole catches far too much flack.

 

I like twilicorn. *runs away*

Muh pony! Srsly, I like it when the show nuts up and changes stuff.

Agreed! Digibro was probably my favorite pony analyst along with Tommy Oliver, and I hope he comes back for S5. Honestly, I don't even like anime all that much anymore, but I still like watching Digibro talk about it.

• I think Applejack is a lesbian. 

 

Would you explain that one? I just find it interesting and would like to know if you have any explanation of that opinion.

Well, when have you seen her show any interest in a stallion? I mean Soarin is the only non-family stallion I've seen Applejack shipped with, and I think it's more because of pie than anything else. She doesn't show any interest in stallions, not even hinted. If the writers where going to make her interested in a stallion, it most certainly wouldn't be family. 

 

As for mares, it is hinted that she is interested in mares. She flirts with Rarity in The Crystal Empire part 2. "Good things are better when they're a Rarity." Before you say anything, watch that scene again and look at Spike's face.  Also, in Equestria Girls 1, Rarity and Applejack are holding arms in a way a couple would. (I actually think Rarity and Applejack temporarily dated in Equestria Girls 1 and broke up before Rainbow Rocks. Though those two aren't ponies.) I swear, Applejack has a crush on Rarity, but she hides it... though she's not that good at hiding it. She is good at hiding her homosexuality to most of the fandom considering they think she's heterosexual, though. Even if Applejack isn't a lesbian (which I think she is.) She's definately not straight in my eyes. Lesbian or asexual.

I take the stance that everyone in the show is heterosexual unless stated otherwise (which I expect will never happen).

Stupid heteronormative society.... I hate it. I think people should assume characters are the orientation they seem, not that they are straight because most people are straight. Give me one moment where Applejack showed any interest in stallions. We know most likely that Rarity is heterosexual (Though Tabitha said Rarity was starting to be interested in mares...) Rainbow Dash is most likely heterosexual, too. Twilight is heterosexual, too. (If people assume Rainbow is lesbian because of her mane, they should also assume Twilight is bisexual because she has the bisexual pride flag on her mane and tail.) The only Mane Six who's orientation and color scheme match in my opinion is Pinkie Pie. (pansexual.) Sorry, I just hate the everyone is straight until proven otherwise thing.

Thanks for explaining it You made some very interesting points. Personally I like to think she's bi.

She probably is. Though  Tsaritsa is probably right. All ponies are straight. Equestria is probably a culture where homosexuality nor any other orientation other than heterosexuality exists... I just can't see Applejack as straight, but she's probably 100% straight...

I'm not denying claims that certain ponies in the MLP:FIM universe may be homosexual, but it's safer to assume given pony is heterosexual. Though the mare to stallion ratio seems quite off so would that mean there are many single mares or is homosexuality actually more common in the universe because of the gender imbalance? Or is it just Ponyville that mostly consists of mares (I don't remember ratio for other cities)?

 

Analyzing one's behaviour to determine their sexuality is more risky than assuming heterosexuality I think; I know two people in reality whose sexuality were mistakenly guessed as homosexual due to, I suppose, subtlety in their behaviour. What appears to be a subtle hint to pony's sexuality to some people I will interpret it no more then as friendly gesture.

 

Of course I expect we'll never have definite confirmation of sexuality of ponies because it should probably be expected that such discussion especially for rating of show will cause controversy.

I think it's safe to assume that everyone is bisexual. I mean unless someone is asexual, hearing about their orientation won't be a 360.  

 

Also, there are a lot of stallions in Equestria. Stallions are just out working which is why we see more stallions on Holidays and other events. That is also why the school foals have a even mix of fillies and colts. Equestria seems to be a matriarchal society. I mean if it was equal, wouldn't a prince become an alicorn? (I found it funny when Twilight imagined Starswirl as an Alicorn in the Reflections Arc, but there are no male alicorns.) But the mare to stallion ratio is not accurate. We just see the mares more often. 

[Steve Piranha 29,414]

I like twilicorn. *runs away*

And I like Flash Sentry 

 

Another big unpopular opinion from mine, are having children. I saw lately many people having children for the wrong reasons: Social pressure, don't let their genes die, thinking it'll strenghen their marriage, next step of life, getting any before getting too old just in case........ Children are not to take lightly, they are a responsibility, it's not a cutesy-wootsy thing you can just hug, kiss and nothing else  . 

[Iudex 1,945]

Five Nights at Freddie's is one of the dumbest fads I've ever seen. If not the dumbest, overrated piece of garbage in the past decade.

And coming from me, that's really saying something.

 

Maybe it's not so bad. Maybe I'm just very annoyed seeing it everywhere.

 

EDIT: I'm ready for the fire.

Magic Duel is one of if not my least favorite episodes of MLP.

There are other shows and movies which explore the power of friendship much better than MLP.

I am still extremely on edge about the Season 5 premier.

Star Wars spinoff movies are a horrible idea.  

Mexican Coke is better than American Coke. 

[baba_booey 4,302]

I actually like McDonald's 

 

Five Nights at Freddy's is not scary, and is in general not a good game.

 

I still enjoy watching The Simpsons. New episodes included. (Although I'll still admit there are some episodes that are.. crap.)

 

Griffon the Brush Off was one of my favorite episodes of MLP:FiM Season 1.

 

There's worse characters than Diamond Tiara.

(RRRRGH I Forgot I'll Add Them Later)

[GreySentinel 157]

The reason I started liking Rainbow Dash was actually because people started hating her. They said she was disloyal, so I posted many moments of her being loyal. (That means I had to pay attention to Rainbow's character.) So I grew to like her more. I actually think people who hate a certain pony of the Mane Six just ignore them and never see them grow in my opinion. 

 

 

I like Rainbow Dash in the fact that she's a great character. Sure, she may be cocky, but she does care about her friends. Also, she does prove to be awesome. Rainbow may let things go to her head, but usually, she isn't the type of pony who would claim that she can do stuff that she doesn't believe she can. She also wouldn't lie (I don't think) to get others to like her. We know Rainbow can preform the Sonic Rainboom. We know that she's a very highly talented flier. Trixie is different, though. Most bronies seem to think Trixie IS a great pony. Sure, she does have a higher than average level of unicorn magic, but she isn't as great as she claims. I mean she lied about vanquishing an Ursa Major. I'm all for confidence, and the occasional cockiness, but Trixie didn't only believe that she was better than everyone at a certain thing, she believed she was better than everyone at everything. If you were to challenge Rainbow to a race, she would have full confidence that she would win. (She most likely will.) Though if you challenged her to a contest where you draw a picture, she may not have the same confidence. Trixie, though, is different. She will believe she can beat you in a race, beat you in a drawing contest, beat you at a push up contest, etc. If you are good at something, by all means, show it off. But saying you're better than everyone at everything is annoying. I dont' get why most bronies love her. 

 

I agree with everything you mentioned about RD. While I hope it never comes to it ('cause Hasbro would totally alienate their target audience, and shift FIM's rating to TV 18+, right?) Dashie is tied with AJ, at my #1 spot of personal favorite Mane Six filly, because of their personalities, implicitly giving the impression that they'd defend their four (technically 5, here) besties from lethal harm; even if it permanent injury followed.

 

I considered Twilly, but she was disqualified because I couldn't imagine her being injured, after her intervention. Alicorns, what can ya do about it? (Twilight fans, please drop your weapons! It was a joke!)

 

 

I assume Trixie has fans, because of the potential, that the story of her past could tell. She looks like she's within the Mane Six's age group, so I thought that her arrogance is nothing but an act (Whoa. Considering her talent, that's an odd coincidence to me.)

Her gloating and boasting, could be in attempt to compensate for her potential lack of confidence, or fear of rejection.

So basically, Trixie isn't that different from me? My biggest fear is rejection, and I lack confidence. I need to stop being like characters I don't like. Though that's why I don't like Twilight... we're too similar on the wrong things... I should have mentioned that in an unpopular opinion. 

 

Edit: Actually, come to think of it, Twilight and I are too similar on almost everything. The only differences are that she's studious and organized while I have trouble reading, and my organization skills are like Rarity's. (Organized chaos. If you walked in my room, you would see a big mess. I know where everything is, and I have things there for a reason, though.) So I should love Twilight, but for some reason, I can't.

I don't know how much of an unpopular opinion this is, but i am gonna write this anyway.

 

I can't stand people who call Twilight Sparkle, Twilicorn now, just so they can go into full denial mode and say "That's not Twilight Sparkle. Twilight Sparkle exploded at the end of Season 3 and was replaced."

 

Look guys. just because YOU don't like Twilight Sparkle now how she is, does NOT mean that she is someone else.

 

Hate her. Hate her till your face starts to bleed, i seriously couldn't care less. But don't say that she is someone else, because that's childish.
