Mywas 687 July 22, 2013 Share July 22, 2013 so I understand quoting Your favourite characters. But when you quote something they they only said once and act like they say it all the time is kinda silly. some bronies take the 20% Cooler as a code that all bronies should follow. Personaly I never used it, Infact I used yay a couple of times when its fitting. But some bronies use it all the time to the point that it makes bronies look bad. no offense to any brony but thats how I feel 9 Credits to Mint Drop for an awesome Sig.

Eureka 1,119 July 22, 2013 Share July 22, 2013 I think it's fine. It just gets annoying when they use it in every single sentence. Other than that it doesn't really bother me. 14 Quote Eureka's words of wisdom has inspired me, I should start listening to her more. ~DX Silver Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver Boulder 123 July 22, 2013 Share July 22, 2013 I don't mind quoting it here and there, I don't find the quote itself annoying since I find it very funny. The only time I find the quote annoying is when some ponies continue to use it over and over when near to me. Other then that, I don't mind it 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PinkiePai 181 July 22, 2013 Share July 22, 2013 If you don't like the way your friend talks and if you find the little quotes they use annoying then you should just find a new friend instead of complain. They don't hurt anyone with it and it brings them joy, the way they talk is a part of who they are and you should accept it if you really care about them. I still can't even understand why saying quotes from MLP would be annoying... 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Bay 1,027 July 22, 2013 Share July 22, 2013 (edited) There are those who use it all the time, those who never used it and I'd say most of us just say it once in a while. I've seen the use of this phrase in quite a lot of forms, sometimes it was clever, sometimes it was funny and of course sometimes it was just dumb. Even if you can't take it anymore, it will persist. This thread seems a tiny bit similar to the haters complaining about MLP. Just sayin'... Edited July 22, 2013 by Blue Bay 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DusK 1,264 July 22, 2013 Share July 22, 2013 I think I'm gonna stop by this thread for a bit, take in the sights, and maybe make a quick post. Ya know, just to make this thread about 20% cooler. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrumpy 159 July 22, 2013 Share July 22, 2013 If you don't like the way your friend talks and if you find the little quotes they use annoying then you should just find a new friend instead of complain. They don't hurt anyone with it and it brings them joy, the way they talk is a part of who they are and you should accept it if you really care about them. I still can't even understand why saying quotes from MLP would be annoying... Um no, sorry but no..... how about just politely mentioning that they are over doing it, real friends don't mind a bit of complaining constructive criticism, and real friends trust you enough to be honest, even if it stings a little, and there is no reason to stop being friends at all, just because you disagree with something, as long as you can remain civil and find a way to put it aside 6 From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia: Scrumpy is cider made in the West Country of England,[1] particularly a band through Devon, Somerset, Gloucestershire and Herefordshire, though it may also be found in Kent, Sussex and East Anglia. The term is especially used to distinguish those made locally in smaller quantities and using traditional methods from mass-produced branded ciders.

ReverseFaller 2,483 July 22, 2013 Share July 22, 2013 It does get old after a while. It's funny every now and again, but it's quickly becoming another "Arrow in the Knee" joke. Funny at first, but it gets annoying fast. 1 Credit for the signature goes to Kyoshi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dusty Soul 2,611 July 22, 2013 Share July 22, 2013 It has various levels of annoyance. When someone says it all the time it's very annoying, but when used right it can be a good reference if not overdone. 1 Soundcloud-------------------Facebook---------------------------Youtube Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just wanted to be dramatic about it and show that if a friend is saying it "All the fucking time" you should do something and not complain on the internet behind their back. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sunset_sprint 190 July 22, 2013 Share July 22, 2013 Everything in moderation, the overuse of the phrase is quite annoying but the context of the phrase is quite amusing and witty. Only use 20% cooler as prescribed. 2 Sunset wants a brohoof /)Sunset Sprint - Xbox Live Gamertaghttp://sunsetsprint.deviantart.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrainyBrony 252 July 22, 2013 Share July 22, 2013 I only find it annoying when people say that everything is '20% cooler'. I mean, for example, 'I just ate a sweet that made my tastebuds 20% cooler!'. No, you ate a sweet. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt. Snuggle Gruff 101 July 22, 2013 Share July 22, 2013 After a while it gets a little stupid I think. I heard it a couple of times when I first started watching the show. Now it's alright but kinda tiresome. 1 Luna Is My Favorite Power Ranger! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, for example, 'I just ate a sweet that made my tastebuds 20% cooler!'. No, you ate a sweet. Lol, thats funny, I hadn't heard of a situation like that before. I guess keeping true to the phrase's initial mean it would only work if it was used regarding a singular object. 1 Sunset wants a brohoof /)Sunset Sprint - Xbox Live Gamertaghttp://sunsetsprint.deviantart.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PoniesPlease 365 July 22, 2013 Share July 22, 2013 To be fair, every meme ever is based on something that's only done once. I understand that "20% Cooler" is not a meme per se, but the concept is the same. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DusK 1,264 July 22, 2013 Share July 22, 2013 Popping in to post, thus again making the thread 20% cooler, but it appears we have a conundrum. See, I already made this thread 20% cooler with my previous post. So if I post again, does it make its original value an additional 20% cooler (thread coolness * 1.4), or do I make its current coolness value, which came as a result of my previous post, 20% cooler ((thread coolness * 1.2) * 1.2)? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chin Chin 29 July 22, 2013 Share July 22, 2013 Huh, I thought bronies forgot about that quote a while ago. I actually forgot about it until now and now that I think about it, it is a little old and a bit annoying. 1 "I know you got problems... Hell, we all do.

sunset_sprint 190 July 22, 2013 Share July 22, 2013 It one of those great one liners that Rainbow Dash has like "10 seconds flat." I'm not on a lot of pony related forums so I guess I haven't have the exposure to the overuse of these quotes. 1 Sunset wants a brohoof /)Sunset Sprint - Xbox Live Gamertaghttp://sunsetsprint.deviantart.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deactivate Me 24 July 22, 2013 Share July 22, 2013 I definitely don't find it annoying, but I do find it really overused. Sometimes I'll see it used when its not needed but it doesn't annoy me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Display Name 448 July 22, 2013 Share July 22, 2013 (edited) Its fine. But when someone comments ''Blah Blah 20% cooler BLAH'' on a YouTube video that is totally UNRELATED- to My Little Pony what-so-ever, it tends to get on peoples nerves. Which usually ends up stirring up a war on that- video's comments. Trust me, i'v seen it happen plenty of times.

MrGamerPony 42 July 22, 2013 Share July 22, 2013 this quote all depends on how you treat it 20% is not the only one that is said a lot but my opinion of it will be different then other you just got to roll with it and just stay calm and collected 1 NH/V12/RENA/GMRC/MR2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
