SO... ponies., Let's just get it over with. Options

[Accidentally The...]

Err, it's okay to make a topic on this, isn't it? I saw a bit of scarce discussion in that The Bar thread, but I was surprised there wasn't a dedicated thread here. (I'm hoping it isn't like Something Awful where that kind of thing is frowned upon.)

Anyway, I'm pretty sure everyone here knows what this is about. My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. I'll leave out the "brony" movement (except to say: I love the show, but generally disassociate myself from the "brony" aspect because most bronies I've dealt with irritate the mess out of me). But I do think the show is hilarious, and not even in an ironic way - I do love it for what it is. I think it helps that Rarity, Twilight, and Pinkie are funny as helk.

So... shall we discuss it?

[Accidentally The...]

I suppose so, it just seems pointless to invest your hate so much. Indifference is my favorite thing. I don't go into a House thread and rant about how I hate the show. I just... don't watch the show anymore, move on, avoid any discussion topics about it because why?, and enjoy what I like while not trying to impress my feelings upon anyone else because I respect their tastes as long as they respect mine. Or, it'd be like me going to a Star Trek convention. I don't care for Star Trek. Never did. No desire to involve myself with it. Why am I there?

Nothing personal, I just find the practice too draining to keep up with, personally. I prefer to dabble in constructive criticism or enjoyment, myself.

Although, like I said, I do understand the disdain for the fandom (especially when those fandoms argue over the pettiest things, like eye color or fanon vs. canon). But if I wanted the central reasons for the fandoms to disappear, I'd be losing plenty of music and games I loved.
