Thanks for the defense dudes I love you now (no homo way)

Dude, I really don't care if you're a brony. I could care less, just please, keep those "things" away.

Okay, seriously, they're plastic toys, not the Plague. Aren't you a little old to still believe in cooties?

I actually like the show, I watch it with my daughter. I just found that I was liking the show more than she did and that's an issue when your raising a child. Someone has to be the parent. I can see dedicating your life to that fandom if you dont have a family, but I do and I have to put them before ponies or even Transformers.

And that's fine. It's entirely possible to still be a fan of something and have reservations. Not all Bronies let the franchise dominate their lives, just as not all Transformers fans let the Transformers run their lives.

I used to be a Brony, and then I had what alcoholics refer to as a "moment of clarity" . I came back to Tranformeser cause the transformers fans are not as obsessive and all encompassing as Bronies. There are some Bronies that is all their life is Ponies. There is no room for anything else, and they have a misguided sense that that is all there is to life.
I'm not that hardcore and never will be. Transformers fans I can at least talk about other things with besides Transformers. Whenever the Hub posts ANYTHING on their status, hordes of Bronies will flood the thread with ponies this and ponies that.
Heck during the Aurora shooting, Bronies could not stop being a fan for one second to act like humans and observe a little respect for the victims. No they still had to post ponies this and ponies that about people who died in the theater shooting!
In the end I realized I lacked the qualifications to be a Brony, I have a life. xD

Apologies for the late post. And that wasn't every brony, btw. Not everyone in the fandom is a blabbering obsessive with no life. Just as not all of us Transfans are blabbering obsessives. In every fandom there's extremes. Us Bronies just happen to garner more attention for it, due the unusual nature of the fandom. And it doesn't help we're a completely internet-generated community. There's bound to be more depraved and/or obsessive skidplates abound.

Minor out.

Hopefully they live on Unicron.

You haven't been watching Transformers: Prime, have you?

I meant the Unicron of their universe.

I have been watching Prime, so I know very well that the Unicron in the Prime universe is Earth.

Why would I bother voting when it's abundantly obvious that there is no contest? When my little ponies can turn into something, I'll care.

Not sure if this makes me a Brony, but one night when I couldn't sleep, I was browsing Youtube and found some MLP eps. Before I knew it, I've gone through half the first season.

I've no intention of ever buying the toys or seeing anything MPL-related on my shelf, but the show was strangely addictive. Reminds me a lot of recent Japanese "slice of life" anime featuring school girls, such as Azumanga Daioh, Lucky Star and K-On!.

Never bothered to start a Facebook or Twitter, but I'm rooting for TF's.

Pretty sure you need to have bought MLP related item to qualify.
And I'd take Azumanga Daioh over MLP anyday. No matter how corny it is...and yes, I've seen a few episode of it.

So, no, I don't think you classify as a brony.

Yeah, Azumanga Daioh, while kinda corny and stereotypical, was funny in an adult-oriented kind of way. MLP was a little too child-oriented and "syrupy" for my tastes. Wait, is that what rainbows taste like?

That said, Fluttershy would make a great counterpart to Sakaki, personality-wise.
