WarGrowlmon1990 94 April 12, 2013 Share April 12, 2013 Hi everyone. I'm new to this forum (but not new to the series). It's been a long time since I've used a forum (I used to use southparkstudios all the time from 2005 - 2007) so sorry if I sound like I'm ranting or rambling. I'm a 22 year old pegasister from Canada. I first started watching MLP:FIM sometime in 2011 when my fiance's daughter was watching it on treehouse. It was Call Of The Cutie. As soon as I saw the animation of the show, I was instantly reminded of The Powerpuff Girls, which was one of my favorite shows when I was a kid. I sat down and watched MLP with my stepdaughter-to-be because it was so interesting. I found myself hoping that Applebloom would get her cutie mark in the end but after seeing the ending of the episode, I was very happy with the outcome and the moral presented to the younger audience. For a long time I had no idea how popular this show was among older audiences and found myself rather embarrassed for liking it. I found out about the brony fandom when I watched an episode of teens react on youtube and was pleased to see how popular this show truly was (and also very irritated that those teens were just being presented with untrue stereotypes about the fandom). You probably wouldn't know it judging how lengthy and informative this post is, but I actually relate to Fluttershy the most out of all the characters. Like her, I am far too kind for my own good and can be very shy and quiet. I guess you can also tell from my username that I'm a huge fan of Digimon Tamers as well. I've told my fiance about the brony fandom and that I myself love the show so much and, even though he himself isn't a brony, he does seem to enjoy spending time with me and his daughter and watches it with us. It's a great family show and I'll be introducing my new baby to it as well, regardless if they're a boy or girl. The baby's due on September 2, and I'm very excited about it. I guess I'm also a bit like Pinkie Pie when I get excited too. Heheh... ^-^ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rainblow H. Ash 5,091 April 12, 2013 Share April 12, 2013 Sup, WarGrowlmon. Your story is a very interesting one, and I'm glad your fiance enjoys watching the show with you and his daughter, and congratulations on having a baby on the way as well. I can sort of sympathize with being embarrassed of liking the show at first, although I already knew about Bronies before watching the show at all. It's just that I had seen one of my friends in real life getting picked on by my other friends for being a Brony, so I was hesitant to let it be known to anypony at first. I got over that, though, and now all my friends don't really mind it at all. Kind of sad that even in college people can get so worked up over liking a cartoon, though! Regardless, welcome to the site, and enjoy your stay! #bringbackmerriwetherwillaims Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MyLittlePonyTales 273 April 12, 2013 Share April 12, 2013 Hello, welcome to the forums! Even if your fiance doesn't like the show, it's nice that he accepts your enjoyment of it. I'm a fan of the old series as well. Did you know the creator of The Powerpuff Girls is the husband of the creator of FiM? Lauren Faust herself also did a lot of work on PPG as well, and other popular Cartoon Network shows, so it's no surprise you'd recognize the animation.

WarGrowlmon1990 94 April 19, 2013 Author Share April 19, 2013 Thanks for the warm welcomes everyone. I haven't been a member for very long, but I'm already addicted to this forum. I'm quite amazed that a forum could be so friendly, although I guess I shouldn't be surprised because the fandom in general is super friendly. When I was a teen in the mid-late 2000's (from 2005 - 2007) I had a rough experience using a south park forum. I'm glad to see that this forum is nothing like it. ^-^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rainbowninja 60 April 19, 2013 Share April 19, 2013 (edited) we can get eventually confused, together by super easy things on this forum then, fellow newbie! I get quite obsessed to forums myself xD. you can thank DawnSomewhere for that. and as much as i'd like to say i'm a mixture of Pinkie and Rainbow and Derpy ( ) I would suck at being a pony, because I basically have a bunch of split personalities. I mean, i'm mostly pinkie rainbow and derpy. that's sort of whey I said the part above. xD Edited April 19, 2013 by rainbowninja Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
