The following is a copy & paste job from my last Tumblr post: http://comicconreviews.tumblr.com/

 

4chan & My Little Pony

 

It is everywhere you look, on your facebook wall, you’re notifcation list on twitter. It’s trending on reddit, instragram you name it. It is the ‘hive mind’


 


It is what is ‘popular’ on the internet. Pointless, moronic and always forgotten. It is the scare cam let’s play videos spearheaded by pewdiepie, it used to be the call of duty commentary videos made by those who have fallen into obscurity.


 


What becomes popular on the internet? cat videos, music videos, offensive memes and jokes. All of it pointless and ultimately forgettable. Where is the only place this holds water, validity, memory? 4chan. 


 


This is where it all used to come from, now it’s gravitated toward reddit where there are screenames and accountability, because social media changed the game in that respect.


 


Chasing what is trending on the internet is like a dog chasing it’s tail, there is no merit  to it. The old model of 4chan which peaked at less than 20 million users is on it’s way out. I find that interesting, because given the ability to say or do anything anonymously what did the community seek? Recognition, in the popularity of viral memes, videos etc.


 


What is 4chan’s swansong? My Little Pony Friendship is Magic. Don’t get me wrong I enjoy magical technicolour talking ponies I just find it interesting that this is what the site will be remembered for as it’s userbase continues sto shift toward ‘the front page of the internet’ - reddit.

It was probably made to represent the show, in that respect it's not accurate. A lot of 

the images used to potray the show are in fact 'not canon'. The proportions of some

of the some the ponies are off as are the eyes and general expressions. Speaking

of things that are off, the toys...wow they look like dinosaur faces not my little ponies.

 

I digress, getting off topic here. :derp:

Oh dear....

I have yet to talk anyone who can pass for 'normal' who frequents either site (IRL).
