  1. So. My mum just walked in while I was drawing Twilight Sparkle. Since I'm sitting with my back to the wall, she didn't see what I was doing, but I decided to show her what I had made. So I said "Hey mom, look what I drew!" She looked at it, then said "... Why purple? Couldn't you have made it, I dunno, light blue?" (She really doesn't like purple and pink.) So I said "Sure, but then I'd have to draw Rainbow Dash instead." and showed her a picture of RD. Then we talked a little about how there were certain ponies from the show that are funnier to draw than to make up your own to draw (imho, of course). She said "I do find it kinda scary." But right before she left, she said "Actually, I don't find it scary. It's just funny to say." Conclusion: I love my mom.

    2. @flaxx I kinda have to hide my broniness from EVERY person in my life. I only know about one person who actually likes MLP and that's my 3-year old sister.

      1. @lightningcrash That sucks. :/ Luckily for me, my mom is awesome and very open minded, and I've managed to convert pretty much all of the people I hang out with IRL. Oh, and one of my stepbrothers discovered me and some friends when we had an MLP marathon at my place, and pretty much his only comment was "Heh, I didn't know you were that much of a brony."

        1. @flaxx Well, I can't win em all. I'll stick to black ops out in RL while drawing and chatting brony-style here.

          1. @lightningcrash Hehe, sounds like a plan. :P

            1. @flaxx Oh and writing poetry too. I do that every here and there if I'm in the emotion-zone.

              1. @lightningcrash Not much of a poetry person, myself. The only thing even remotely related to poetry that I do is when I write some silly freestyle raps or something. :P

    3. @flaxx Haha, that was a great story. My mom though it was weird, until one day while I was layed off she IM'd me from work and was like, "OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH so you're a brony!" Then the universe was in balance.

      1. @jinroh Haha, that's awesome! Yay for open minded parents!

        Tuesday, 27-Sep-11 16:59:47 UTC from web
        1. @flaxx Yes, haha, my mom's only open minded now that I'm too old for her to do anything about it. XD

          Tuesday, 27-Sep-11 17:01:29 UTC from web
          1. @jinroh Heh, yeah, but still. Some parents seem to never be able to let go, so it's good that she realizes you won't be little forever. :P

            1. @flaxx She chooses her battles. xD Ponies is one she knew she would not win.

              Tuesday, 27-Sep-11 17:04:13 UTC from web
              1. @jinroh Haha, of course. Nothing can defeat the herd! And good work on introducing your son to it! :D

                Tuesday, 27-Sep-11 17:06:51 UTC from web
                1. @flaxx Actually I didn't haha, his uncle bought him Baby Sweetie Belle because I wouldn't let him play with my ponies. xD

                  Tuesday, 27-Sep-11 17:08:56 UTC from web
                  1. @jinroh Hahahahahaha that's just priceless! XD Seriously, that's so full of win! XD

                    Tuesday, 27-Sep-11 17:12:34 UTC from web
                    1. @flaxx Haha glad you enjoyed it. xD

                      Tuesday, 27-Sep-11 17:15:19 UTC from web
                      1. @jinroh Hahaha, of course. That's seriously hilarious. Having other people buy pony toys for your son because you won't let him play with yours. XD Day = made.

                        Tuesday, 27-Sep-11 17:17:18 UTC from web
                        1. @flaxx Haha yeah, well, he breaks things, and I can't let my precious ponies get broken. XD

                          Tuesday, 27-Sep-11 17:19:48 UTC from web
                          1. @jinroh Hehe, very true. That reminds me that I need to go find somewhere to buy some pony toys as well.

                            Tuesday, 27-Sep-11 17:20:45 UTC from web
                            1. @flaxx Yes, you must go! Make haste! I'll be picking some up on Friday when I get paid. Along with another shirt. ^^

                              Tuesday, 27-Sep-11 17:25:28 UTC from web
                              1. @jinroh I may actually know somewhere where I can get some brushables. I think I'd prefer the other, smaller ones (whatever they're called), though. But then of course, any of them would do.

                                Tuesday, 27-Sep-11 17:32:31 UTC from web
                                1. @flaxx Yes, personally I enjoy the brushies and moldies both, but I'm a collect-a-holic so I have a problem. xD

                                  Tuesday, 27-Sep-11 17:33:24 UTC from web
                                  1. @jinroh Haha, not surprising. These ponies are pretty addictive. :P

                                    Tuesday, 27-Sep-11 17:35:05 UTC from web
                                2. @flaxx I used to prefer the moulded ones to the brushables, until I got my AJ. Now brushiebrushie is the one light in my otherwise miserable life.

                                  Tuesday, 27-Sep-11 17:35:13 UTC from web
                                  1. @ceruleanspark Yes, i agree with this, brushing Rarity and Pinkie are some of my favorite pasttimes. Soon Trixie will get her brush on.

                                    Tuesday, 27-Sep-11 17:36:31 UTC from web
                                  2. @ceruleanspark Haha, I can imagine. Wait... "the one light in my otherwise miserable life"? What about @thelastgherkin?

                                    Tuesday, 27-Sep-11 17:38:41 UTC from web
            2. @flaxx Even my son has pony toys and he's only one.

    4. @zach121k Sorry to hear that, dude. :/

      Tuesday, 27-Sep-11 16:55:15 UTC from web
    5. @zach121k Oh they will.

      Tuesday, 27-Sep-11 16:55:35 UTC from web
    6. @zach121k Yep! It's inevitable, because inevitably they will join us.

      Tuesday, 27-Sep-11 16:56:14 UTC from web
    7. @flaxx Where would we be without parents? Answer: not born.

      Tuesday, 27-Sep-11 17:02:20 UTC from web
      1. @thelastgherkin That is a very true statement right there. Well done.
