    1. @jimbo Thank Luna I'm not like those kind of ponies. That sounds very disrespectful of them.

      1. @pinhooves I am glad you are not, either. :) Honestly, I think if guys just kept their mouths shut, things would be a lot less awkward. Yes, it's nice to say "hey you look nice!" but what if it makes someone feel uncomfortable? I'd personally err on the side of safety, but I feel like "You look very nice in this picture" is a lot less creepy than "I WANT TO HAVE YOUR BABIES," which I've seen before. Or "wow that shirt sure is being stretched!," which was said, in relation to someone's boobs fitting into a T-shirt. >:(

        1. @jimbo I'd never say anything rude. I'm not a mean pony.

          Friday, 23-Sep-11 05:18:12 UTC from web
          1. @pinhooves That is very good. :) I think more bronies should aspire to be like that!

            1. @jimbo I just think that if I'm nice to somepony, they'll most likely be nice back. I don't know why I would want to make enemies.

              1. @pinhooves That's how I feel, too. Sometimes I get very mean when I'm yelling at people who are also not-nice, though. XD So I'm definitely not perfect, whoops.

                1. @jimbo I try to keep my cool when something upsets me, and try to avoid the situation. If I get mad at somepony, don't always mean it, depending why I'm mad.

                  Friday, 23-Sep-11 05:33:21 UTC from web
                  1. @pinhooves I don't always*

                    Friday, 23-Sep-11 05:34:03 UTC from web
                  2. @pinhooves Yeah, that's a good method of dealing with it. :)

                    Friday, 23-Sep-11 05:49:03 UTC from web
    2. @jimbo Wait... people still go to ponychan?

      Friday, 23-Sep-11 05:11:24 UTC from StatusNet Desktop
      1. @colfax I do! Sometimes when I'm bored....

        Friday, 23-Sep-11 05:21:55 UTC from web
    3. @jimbo Well, I'd apologize on their behalf... but I stopped thinking of myself as a human years ago so the hells with them, let them go pound rocksalt down a gopher hole.

      Friday, 23-Sep-11 05:17:26 UTC from StatusNet Desktop
      1. @colfax LOL, nah, don't worry about it. I just feel like ... the idiots who lack any sort of basic human social skills are making the rest of us pony fans look really, really gross by association. Personally, unless I knew the person wouldn't be grossed out by it? I wouldn't go "HEY NICE bananas" if someone happened to post a picture of their dole next to their ponies ... but actually that would be really, really creepy just by itself. D8

        1. @jimbo Look at it this way, those pics are probably as close to the real thing as any of them are likely to ever get.

          Friday, 23-Sep-11 05:21:22 UTC from StatusNet Desktop
          1. @colfax That's my thought, too. I mean, once you've met a real girl, and gotten your face slapped for ogling her boobs ... you learn some grapes. Even if you only have girl pals who complain about ogling from other men, you learn. If you've never left your basement, well. Never learn.

            Friday, 23-Sep-11 05:22:52 UTC from web
            1. @jimbo I must have done it wrong then, I've never gotten my face slapped... maybe it was the sunglasses.

              Friday, 23-Sep-11 05:26:27 UTC from StatusNet Desktop
              1. @colfax Well ... are you sure they were women?! @.@

                Friday, 23-Sep-11 05:31:07 UTC from web
                1. @jimbo Gods, I sure as hell hope so... or I've gone legally blind.

                  Friday, 23-Sep-11 05:33:19 UTC from StatusNet Desktop
                  1. @colfax Well, you WERE wearing shades... you can never knowwww. @.O

                    Friday, 23-Sep-11 05:53:58 UTC from web
                    1. @jimbo Is that a face that got kicked? Looks like a black eye!

                      Friday, 23-Sep-11 05:54:41 UTC from web
                      1. @everypony LOL now that you say that, it DOES look more abused than confused. ^.^;; Oops!

                        Friday, 23-Sep-11 06:02:29 UTC from web
              2. @colfax Smooth! You must be one cool cat!

                Friday, 23-Sep-11 05:31:45 UTC from web
    4. @jimbo I really think people and Ponies like that should really learn some respect. I hate when I see guys at school who are like that too. I just want to slap them upside the head...

      Friday, 23-Sep-11 05:29:56 UTC from web
      1. @herbalgreen I agree. I don't understand why ponies would lack respect.

        Friday, 23-Sep-11 05:31:18 UTC from web
        1. @pinhooves Especially after watching the show. Did they not learn anything about treating others with respect?

          Friday, 23-Sep-11 05:54:12 UTC from web
          1. @herbalgreen Exactly. Love and tolerate.

            Friday, 23-Sep-11 05:54:48 UTC from web
      2. @herbalgreen I completely agree! Argh. I think sometimes guys think "oh, girls like it when we ogle them!," and while some girls do, most of the time it makes girls feel really uncomfortable and unsafe. :(

        Friday, 23-Sep-11 05:32:02 UTC from web
        1. @jimbo It's freakin' creepy when that happens! I freaking hate it!

          Friday, 23-Sep-11 05:32:49 UTC from web
          1. @everypony I KNOW, RIGHT? Urgh. And you think you're safe on the MERCH board, of all places, to show off your new shirt... NOPE. Because under that shirt is BOOBS, which some men cannot help but comment on creepily! >8( JIMBO SMASH!!

            Friday, 23-Sep-11 05:34:18 UTC from web
            1. @jimbo It's so annoying! I really want to kick some faces sometimes!

              Friday, 23-Sep-11 05:35:17 UTC from web
              1. LET'S KICK ALL THE FACES EVERYWHERE, @EVERYPONY!

                Friday, 23-Sep-11 05:48:19 UTC from web
                1. @jimbo AWWEEE YEEAAAHHH! All of the faces!

                  Friday, 23-Sep-11 05:49:57 UTC from web
                  1. @everypony LOLLL ALL. FACES. EVERYWHERE. >83

                    Friday, 23-Sep-11 05:53:35 UTC from web
            2. @jimbo I only comment on them if asked to do so specifically... which has actually happened on several occasions, oddly enough.

              Friday, 23-Sep-11 05:39:07 UTC from StatusNet Desktop
              1. @colfax Hah, how random! But yeah, if someone ASKS how they look - go for it! But just coming up to someone you don't know? Always seemed weird to me, unless you were going to ask them out. And even then - be respectful. :P

                Friday, 23-Sep-11 05:47:58 UTC from web
                1. @jimbo Well, I know alcohol was the cause of a lot of them and one resulted in a guido getting laid out across a pool table due to the delicate application of a cuestick to the back of his cranium, but yeah, if it hadn't been 50 cent beer night I probably would have rethought the entire situation.

                  Friday, 23-Sep-11 05:52:01 UTC from StatusNet Desktop
                  1. @colfax Oh wow, guido fights?! That's pretty rough. But I find that booze is what fuels a lot of these sorts of "HEYY YOUR BOOBS. ARE LOOKIN' AT ME *hurk*" moments, and for that, I can almost be forgiving. Everyone's stupid when they're drunk, so just - don't drink til you're drunk, if you know you're a butt.

                    1. @jimbo The really sad thing of it was I just reenacted a scene from the movie City Heat, he tried to start something and I invited him to play a game of Sleeper...

                      Friday, 23-Sep-11 05:57:35 UTC from StatusNet Desktop
                      1. @colfax I thought sleep was not painful, though... ;]

                        Friday, 23-Sep-11 06:03:02 UTC from web
                        1. @jimbo I'm sure there was plenty of pain waiting for him when he woke up, at some point I think he got tossed in the dumpster out back, I'm not entirely sure... for some reason the memory of that night has quite a few blurry patches in it.

                          Friday, 23-Sep-11 06:06:21 UTC from StatusNet Desktop
                          1. @colfax Somehow, I am not surprised! LOL you are lucky he wasn't seriously hurt! ... he wasn't seriously hurt, right? D:

                            Friday, 23-Sep-11 06:09:02 UTC from web
                            1. @jimbo *shrugs* I never heard about it again after that night, no cops or anything, I think if things had gone horribly wrong someone would have been knocking on my door at some point, I wasn't exactly a stranger to anyone at the bar, I was good friends with one of the owners.

                              Friday, 23-Sep-11 06:14:51 UTC from StatusNet Desktop
                  2. @colfax How manly... I always find pool ques break too easily to be used as weapons. You'd be better off hitting people with the balls!

                    Friday, 23-Sep-11 05:58:09 UTC from web
                    1. @everypony I didn't want to kill him... I just wanted him to shut up.

                      Friday, 23-Sep-11 06:02:02 UTC from StatusNet Desktop
                      1. @colfax The front part of the skull is the thickest single piece of bone in the body! He'd have been fine! Probably....

                        Friday, 23-Sep-11 06:05:50 UTC from web
                        1. @everypony Actually, if you aim for the temple you can peel the top right off a human skull, that's where the bone is the thinnest.

                          Friday, 23-Sep-11 06:07:03 UTC from StatusNet Desktop
                          1. @colfax Yeah, on the temple! The frontal plate is the thickest single peice, that doesn't include the temple!

                            Friday, 23-Sep-11 06:09:01 UTC from web
        2. @jimbo Yeah, and that's one of the things that annoys me. I was actually told I was a good example for another guy the other day because of how he was treating a girl I know. It also annoys me -like with you- when there are guys that say "Damn, I want to get with her because she has big boobs!" I'm like, "Seriously? Can you learn how to treat a girl for once?"
