If you told your past self you would like My Little Pony, how would they react?

[Catpone Cerberus 23,555]

I would laugh loudly and long time.

 

It's still hard to believe that I actually love MLP.

[Denim&Venöm 18,277]

Well before I answer this I need to now how far back am I going? Am I going back to just before I became a brony? To before the show aired? Am I heading back 5 years? 10 years? Will I head over to when my grandma was babysitting and she was to busy watching Dark Shadows so I could sneak in and talk to my infant self on how awesome MLP is even before the abomination that was MLP tales was finished airing?

 

We need specifics here!

I still don't think i got a proper answer for this, hence why I can't give a proper answer myself. 

[El Duderino 879]

Past me wouldn't believe future me. Or past me would think future me was stupid for giving in.

[Number62 1,258]

My past self would be skeptical since he never cared for MLP initially. I have always believed that it's all about the execution, though.

[Summer Breeze 2,527]

i would say that i expected that. i was just waiting for myself to enter a strange fandome or something like that and i would also ask how i maneged to talk to me

[MilesW1998 24]

I would have 5 questions

 

1. Who are you?

 

2. How'd you get into my house?

 

3. What are you talking about?

 

4. What are you smoking, and can I have some?

 

(Yes I put 2 questions into 1 just for the lulz.)

[Moony the Cat 3,702]

Since i was a Furry at a very young age, i would probably just look the show up and would probably find the show cute 

But maybe i would find it boring, i dont know, because i disliked most cartoons in my childhood 

But I mean, i always watched girly things sometimes, like barbie films.

So i wouldnt be surprised if i would watch Mlp in the Future 

[Envy 6,122]

I'm just wondering how and why that would end up being what I would tell myself from the past.

 

What insane version of me, having the opportunity to tell myself to take better care of myself and bring a future into my life, would go back to my past self and say "In several years you're going to like a My Little Pony cartoon, bye."

 

I'm sorry, I'm terrible with these hypotheticals... But honestly, liking MLP just isn't something out of line for me. The only reason I might bring it up is... "Those MLP toys out there right now... You will like them in the future. Get some if you can" but that would be pointless too because I didn't get a job until after I liked FiM, and I most certainly didn't have any money during G3.

 

It'd be so much more fun to tell what instruments I'd end up playing in the future, or telling my senior year self who she was going to date next. Those all would come out of the left field.

[Sekr Gray 520]

My sisters grew up watching the older series, so I think that my 10 year old self would be thinking of G3 and the like when I heard of the pones. So, seeing me interested in that would be pretty hard, unless I made it as an art practice excuse, for cartooning.

[ManyANewDay_36 178]

They'd look at me weird, then laugh and say, "I'M going to like THIS?"

 

 

And I'd reply with, "no, you're going to like THIS."

[Mez 244]

Think I was crazy for liking a girls show, enough said.

[BritishBrony2012 773]

I be shock that I end up liking it again as I used to be into Old MLP but if ask past young-self liking old MLP, I be shock that I was still into them.

[Melke 160]

1. please tell me life gets better

 

2. tell me what I need to avoid

 

3. is there anything I will regret?

 

4. please give me the answers to all the tests!

 

5. SAY WHAT?! MLP GETS BETTER?!

 

(context: I was depressive, my past self would want to avoid suffering. I am desperate to do well and the last one, I quit mlp after G2 so I was skeptical)

[Fawkes The Phoenix 737]

I'd be ok with it. When I found out about bronies I thought "Hey! This looks interesting".

[Seraph Sun 56]

I've always been pretty open minded, so my reaction would likely be "Ummm, okay?"

[Makazi 317]

Well I'd probably stare at myself, then I'd be all 

[Twiggy 2,966]

He would have told me that you have strayed from the path that the Allfather has set for you, and probably challenge me to hólmganga.

[Cipactli 43]

Funny, the past. Mmmm...

Me: Hi, past little self, guess what you'll like a sho..."

Past mini me: Stranger danger! Police!(kicks me in the groin).

 

 

Actually, I would simply laugh, and maybe worry about it.

[BrineBlade 28]

I would've just asked "Is it something my sister forces me to watch? Because the old show was just boring."

 

I would've then replied,"Nope, because it has a god of chaos, an evil queen who tried to have the main character kill her sister-in-law, and the cutest little dragon ever."

 

I would've laughed in my face before I told myself, "Weird Al does a guest role."

 

That would've shut me up and wondering what role he would play.

[TubeSock2018 325]

I imagine it'd be a little something like this for my past self upon realization of what he ultimately will become

[Brony_B 128]

It would depend on how far into the past.  I was in high school 15 years ago, and at that time I was really into Sailor Moon, especially the original Japanese version.  I was getting into it just at the time when you could still order fansubs that would come in the mail on VHS tapes.  (wow!)  So I guess high school me wouldn't be so surprised that I liked a cartoon that has a main target audience of young girls, but rather why I would be interested in some American garbage rather than the pure perfection of Japanese animation.  I think I could get high school me on board, though. 

[Luigi 7,869]

Honestly, of I told my past self I would eventually become a Brony, he would have a huge panic attack.

[ShadOBabe 18,997]

If we're talking about teenaged me:

"Really? Goodness, how'd that happen? XD"

 

If we're talking about little girl me:

"Shh, I'm trying to play Barbie Riding Club. I've almost found the golden horsehoe."

[cmarston1 5,958]

I would be like:

Wait what?

What the heck are you talking about?

   

[Strong Will 11]

Six Year Old Me: Whaa, the same lame show my mom forced me to watch (I was watching G3) when I was five? Meh, I like Rainbow Brite better.
