TheMarkz0ne 962 January 31, 2014 Share January 31, 2014 I watched this and I simply cringed and kind of regret having aspergers and liking MLP. This isn't trolling, it's legit and I really felt like that after watching this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghostfacekiller39 23,860 January 31, 2014 Share January 31, 2014 Embarrassed how? If you mean embarrassed to be a brony, hell no; he has every right to get up there and do his thing, dammit. If you mean your/his disorder; you still shouldn't be. Can't be helped; I can't help my heart disorder, you can't help your disorder....nothing can be done, so we gotta put a positive spin on it and not dwell in the handicaps they create 10 He who is Positively Obsessed With All Things Rarity!!!

Scootalove 10,689 January 31, 2014 Share January 31, 2014 (edited) If you're embarrassed to be a brony because of this, I'm sorry but I don't get it. Sure he went up there and did that, but he has the right to go up and speak his mind. If I was you, I wouldn't be embarrassed because both of you have the same disorder so there is nothing you can do about it. I wouldn't be embarrassed. But he should be careful at what he says, also the question wasn't really suitable to ask the staff.

Jokuc 8,173 January 31, 2014 Share January 31, 2014 (edited) When I am watching other people "make fun" of themselves, I get embarassed myself so I could barely even watch the video xD Watched it with a pause after a few seconds haha (Note that has nothing to do with my brony...ness) Edited January 31, 2014 by Jokuc 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lightning Bliss 1,674 January 31, 2014 Share January 31, 2014 I cringed at what HE said, not what I would say though. NO I'm not embrassed about being a brony, I'm well aware of what that guy said is a dark side of the fandom and its existance, but I would never bring up such a topic to the voice actors or creators knowing that was never their motivation or target for the show and should be obvious that it was never their intentions. What that guy said was just not a decent question to ask to begin with since I would think its common sense that the creators and voice actors don't stand by the darker fandom of what people depict from the show. They are here to answer questions like "what motivated you to choose your voice style for the character" or "why did you select the colors of the characters specifically?" Ya freedom of speech however, if you wanna ask that question like that guy did, go ahead but be prepared to be stared at in disgust most likekly. I'm just a silly little alicorn, trying to get by in the fandom ^^ The Lightning Bliss Show Lightning Bliss DevianArt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Castle Bleck 19,360 January 31, 2014 Share January 31, 2014 @TheMarkz0ne, At least now we know Nicole Oliver dislikes Molestia and Tyrantlestia. By Emerald.↑ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest January 31, 2014 Share January 31, 2014 That guy is NOT you. What he said is NOT what you said. Maybe I feel embarrassed for him... that'd be awkward in front of those people. But still, Like what YOU like. If you're embarrassed to like something maybe you shouldn't be a fan of it. What someone else says or does shouldn't affect how you feel about being a brony.

Neon Fire 473 January 31, 2014 Share January 31, 2014 I'm just glad I wasn't there. If I knew that guy, I would feel really awkward. But yeah, it did make me cringe when he was saying that to the voice actors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Treble Bolt 1,122 January 31, 2014 Share January 31, 2014 That's not embarrassing in the least. Everyone has their own ways of expressing themselves, disability or not. Why should anyone feel ashamed for someone's actions/words about something you like? They are not you, they do not have the worldview you do, and they have a different personality and ways of coping than you do. Why judge an entire fandom based on one person?!? That's what mainstream media does to skew a story, make a fandom look good and/or bad. Your focus is too narrow, you need to look at the big picture- the COMMUNITY that is the brony fandom. Sure, not everyone makes the fandom look good, but who are you to judge what people like? "In fire iron is born, by fire it is tamed" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ReverseFaller 2,483 February 2, 2014 Share February 2, 2014 (edited) No, I'm not embarrassed by this at all. He was just asking an honest question. Sure, maybe it wasn't the most appropriate question to ask the staff, but the staff answered his question in the appropriate manner so it's all good.

Judgement 445 February 16, 2014 Share February 16, 2014 Gulp. I'm a little too scared to watch the video. Did he ask the cast about molestia and Tyrantlestia? I would feel awkward watching this, but most certainly not embarrassed about being a brony. If he isn't embarrassed about his own question, there's no second hand embarrassment to be shared... Just an awkward silence. There should be question approvals so nopony accidentally asks an innapropriate question. Tom V.S. Boulder: Who will win?

Shine 166 February 16, 2014 Share February 16, 2014 I can imagine that he was probably a little bit embarrassed once he realized that his question wasn't appropriate, but I wouldn't say that he's an embarrassment to me or to the fandom, because what he made there was an honest mistake. He just wanted to know what the show creators thought about the dark side of the fanon, and they told him straight up that they do not approve. It's not like he was endorsing Molestia or anything like that. He probably just said the first thing that came to mind and didn't realize it would cause so much discomfort. 1 You are a ghost, driving a meat-coated skeleton made out of stardust.
