Bronies and Dragons

Many of you may be unaware, but here in America (and possibly leaking into other countries) there are hipsters known as "Bronies" (singular: Brony) and they are appearing EVERYWHERE. I had heard of it before, but I had never experienced it first hand before moving to a small town called Portales in New Mexico, and moving into a place I found on CraigsList. Before getting into where else I have experienced Bronies (Never directly in person, usually online) I am going to tell you how this started and exactly what a Brony is. It all started when a channel known as "G4" (a channel for nerd culture) started airing a show known as "My Little Pony"... This channels target audience is 14-35 year old men... So now there are a bunch of 14-35 year old mean completely OBSESSED with "My Little Pony"... I have experienced them on apps, facebook (even a friend of mine is posting as if she is a brony), twitter, YouTube (They have HUNDREDS of THOUSANDS of brony fan videos, and my room mates in Portales would watch them all the time).... The way you know someone is a Brony is... They will call tattoos "Cutie Marks"... They will talk about Unicorns, Pegasuses (And they WILL correct you and say "Pegusi"), Ponies in general and "Equestria". When I was in New Mexico I was in such a small town they didn't even have enough water for everyone. So there was NOTHING to do but smoke and play video games. But once or twice a week my roommates friends would come over and they would play Dungeons and Dragons, MY LITTLE PONY STYLE. D&D is lame enough, but to play it with Ponies is worse. And I played about 3 games with them... And they said I could video tape it... So... Enjoy :lol: :D (They were all into it, they actually pretended they were horses like "I use my left haunch to..." :lol: ) [video=youtube;8UGGQEijVlE]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8UGGQEijVlE[/video] If you want to see more, there are like 6 more on YouTube. And like 3 of them have me in them. They actually kept filming their games after I left and posted them on YouTube.

Ok, big point I forgot to add in the first post. Bronies are gay and don't realize it. When they talk about unicorns and cutie marks and you tell them "Dude, you're gay" They're like, "Why do people call things they don't like 'gay' " And if you respond with something like, "NO, dude YOU are gay." they will respond with "No I'm not". Then you tell them, "Dude, you talk about Unicorns all day, and have you seen the background on your computer??" And their like "It's about friendship" And they don't realize that EVERYTHING they are saying does not argue against them being gay. And this isn't even a theory. Most, not all, Brony girls are lesbians. I SWEAR to god. Fat chicks and Lesbians. Watch the Ponies and Dragons video and you'll see some perfect examples. It's not "about friendship" it's a bunch of people that "have no friends" because the coolest thing about them is that they watch my little pony, and that's not cool at all.

Look this shit up. They are hipsters. And if you don't want to call them hipsters they are definitely "Hipster Subculture" and there isn't just ONE hipster style. Now there are East Coast Hipsters, West Coast Hipsters and all kinds of small categories that go in there (like the black "Swagga Kids" ex: Kid Kuddi). And soon the South may have it's own major hipster group. But East Coast Style is vests and bow ties, while the west coast where's those shirts that are almost spaghetti straps and almost has a more skater look to it. And fedoras and twisty mustaches are on both sides and in the middle too. But there are TONS of subcultures under these. Such as the West Coast "Thuggin Wiggers", they all where flannels and beanies, vans and thick rimmed glasses. And don't forget role play hipsters. Steam Punks, and people that think they are in the 1940's, 1920's, or 1890's.

Why did you play with them? That's so fucking lame, man. That makes you a brony dabbler. :eyesmoke: Or brony-curious?

I second this not being hipster, just lame and slightly disturbing.

I'm not Brony curios. They were my roommates. At first I thought they were making FUN of My Little Pony, then one day he tried to get me to watch the show and said it was really good and I was like "You're not a 6 year old girl"

It's only been around for like 5 years tops. Hipster shit is WAAAAY older than that. People were "Hipster" when HotTopic sold Ironic shirts like "My imaginary friend thinks your crazy".

No really?...please give me more information of subcultures of fashion..please . also since you're advocating the lifestyle of My Little Pony now Fin, you need to start understanding what the magic of friendship really is, cause I certainly don't think you're acting very nice.

Bronies just popped up out of Hipster culture. Someone says "This is good" and you have to agree with them whether you like it or not because that person is "Above you" Ex: If you are a computer hipster, you think that people that know a lot about animals are stupid. But Bill Gates would be like a god to speak to (more like Steve Jobs but he's dead). And Bronies think Lauren Faust (the creator of the show as it is today) is GOD. They said it all the time, not that she was god, but that she was awesome and they want to meet her and stuff. And they all looked up to this one kid that was proud to BE hipster and was a Biochem major who thought he was hot shit because he knew inside jokes and stuff about science (which is totally a hipster thing to do, hipsters like "obscurity" and being a part of it). It's all hipster culture.

Hipster is just going against the mainstream, to be "too cool" for stuff. A true hipster would be too cool to be into my little ponie because

A) it's 5 years old and hipsters don't like old shit, only shit you haven't heard of yet and

B) too many people already into it.

Hipster: "I was into my little ponie BEFORE it was mainstream."

A) Sounds like "non mainstream" to me and hipsters LOVE old shit. Have you heard of the 80's and 90's? Everyone wishes they were back. B) That's because everyone is a hipster now. Go to ANY college campus.

you keep using that word. i do not think it means what you think it means.

if everyone is a hipster, then by definition, NO ONE is a hipster.
