Eh, at least we have enough femmeslash fics to make up for it.  :sly:

I am the bone of my keyboard
Friendship is my body and magic is my blood
I have created over a thousand fanfics
Unknown to Nature, Nor known to Treadmill
Have withstood carpal tunnel to create erotic fiction
Yet, those hands will never hold anything
So as I pray, unlimited pony works.

What's wrong king of ponies? Do you have enough fanfics at your disposal?

I really like this show, y'know?

Why are so many fans of it so off the rocker?

To be fair, those people are just the vocal minority, while most bronies just seem to be normal people who are aware of the fact that they watch a show intended for little girls. The weird bronies are the people you can find in any fandom, from the HP fangirls that ship SnapeXHarry, to the Avengers fans that draw naked pictures of Tony Stark.

Too many! A lot of something is ugly in itself.

Every fandom has its nutters. The bigger the fandom, the more nutters there are. It's all proportional. Since MLP: FiM has tons of fans, there are bound to be a lot of screwballs. Basically, what Insommy said.

Yeah, but its just so hard to have a decent convo about the show since it always seems to fall back to the dumb memes and Pony King Foggle-style stories that it makes it seem worse than it is.

I think it's because since it's a show about ponies, the bad just seems to be magnified far more than your average fanbase's nutjobs would be.
Life is not about the second chances. It's about a little mouse and his voyage to an exciting new land. That, my friend, is what life is.

Sir, do you have any Warrants?
I got their first CD, but you can't have it, motherfucker!

That's really how everything is on the internet. Either you encounter memes, power level battles, and slashfic writers out the ass or there's no discussion whatsoever.

Did I ever mention that I permanently mortified one of my friends by showing him a NOTB/Simpsons mash-up image that we aren't allowed to talk about and certainly not share again?

Anonymity breeds hatred and stupidity, which can often make proper discussion impossible and civility fruitless. Fortunately, AR is above that. I mean, I don't like what I've seen of MLP, but I don't come into our thread and hate on it like people would do at GAF, MAL, imdb, etc. The closest we have to that kinda' shit is talon and gsf purposefully baiting and flaming each other, which is usually hilarious. I certainly find it nice to visit (run, actually :P) a forum that isn't overrun with memes and rage.

Sorry for masturbating to my own board, lol.

As someone who is in the Sonic fandom, I have been asking this question for well over a decade.
