Fender 1,283 April 11, 2015 Share April 11, 2015 @@Midnight Gaze, I say ageism is worse, not in the sense that it has caused people to be killed or anything. Obviously, there haven't been child-only water fountains, or anything of that sort. I mean it in the sense that, based on common circumstance, actual racism barely occurs anymore. I mean racism as it was in the 60's, not some stupid white soccer mom trying to enforce a stereotype or something to that affect. Actual racism doesn't happen like it used to, which is good. It's also not to say that it doesn't exist either, but all in all, it's as much of a fad to be "racist" now as it is to call people "neckbeard," which leads me to - the internet! We are in the information age, where all over the world, about the most common "insult" if you'd like to call it that, is the word "kid." Perhaps I am being picky, but it's a very subtle thing anyway. I don't think every child, adolescent, or teen has some magical wisdom that is being downplayed by them being called "kid" in any condescending manner, but I do think it's wrong that near no one touches on ageism. I could probably explain it all better if I were more awake, and less lazy for the time being, but here you are. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starlight Fan 538 April 11, 2015 Share April 11, 2015 I sometimes jokingly call My Little Pony "Rainbow Horses in My Possession". I mean seriously, the title has always been slightly weird if you think about it, but then you can't really think of anything better either. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genepool 224 April 11, 2015 Share April 11, 2015 Steven Universe is the best show in the Universe. In all honesty, I'm not a fan of the show. There are episodes where it pulls you in and a I think "this will be good," and then it turns into a really weird slice of life episode. What gets under my skin is the 11 to 15 min run time per episode. I sincerely hope this won't become the new standard for cartoons where it's more "profitable" to make shorter cartoon episodes to crank out the product, ads, and what not. I would never have gotten into MLPFIM if it were that stupid 11 to 15 min per episode idea. Robot Chicken was fine to me when it did the short skit thing with the show being a total of X minutes since SMA takes quite a bit of effort to pull off. In regards to unpopular opinions, I'm starting to get annoyed at some of the people in the fandom who just tell others -- using a stardard reply -- of "just don't watch the show then if you don't like it." Primary example came with the post on EQD where a person vented, and received a not too warm welcome of "just stop watching the show" with one comment saying along the lines of "we need toilet paper overhere for the butthurt." Thankfully, this won't disuade me from the brony fandom since these people make up a minority of them. I was here since the last-half of the first season, and I ain't leaving until the show reaches its end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally think that the Steven Universe writers are all the more skilled for being to fit lots of content into half the time available.

Yellow Diamond 7,569 April 11, 2015 Share April 11, 2015 Attention everyone! After some internal staff discussion, this thread is now closed. The factors behind this decision are manifold: This topic is enormous, spanning over 300 pages. It's incredibly difficult to moderate content in such a large and rapid moving thread. On too many occasions we've had members mistaken this thread for a Debate Pit-style free-for-all, leading to abusive behavior. Content quality is especially difficult to maintain. There is ultimately a lack of a guiding light for this topic apart from members pounding out a slew of unrelated opinions. Megathreads like this one wreak havoc on MLP's SOE (search engine optimization). In other words, topics of interest that might otherwise turn up as unique hits for MLP Forums are lost. The bottom line is that this thread's history reflects repeated instances of negative user experience. Posting unpopular opinions became an excuse to declare even abhorrent and offensive positions, inviting fights between members. Remember: every thread is bound by the same rules of mutual respect. With that all said, RIP thread. 26 Domine, tu omnia nosti, tu scis quia amo te. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
