  1. Is it wrong that I hate 80% of bronies?

    Thursday, 13-Jun-13 00:13:53 UTC from web
    1. @diamonddash No, I hate the majority of them too.

      Thursday, 13-Jun-13 00:14:15 UTC from web
    2. @diamonddash as bad as hating 80% of any group of people

      Thursday, 13-Jun-13 00:14:29 UTC from web
    3. @diamonddash Not really

      Thursday, 13-Jun-13 00:14:40 UTC from web
    4. @diamonddash This site is mostly just normal people, chatting about whatever. Just because it's MLP themed, doesn't mean that anyone really talks about it much here. This place is more of a giant chat room full of bored people. XD

      1. @tavi I wish I was bored

        Thursday, 13-Jun-13 00:18:55 UTC from web
    5. @diamonddash also, if you at least KNOW 80% of the bronies

      Thursday, 13-Jun-13 00:17:35 UTC from web
      1. @mushi Let me rephrase. 80% if the bronies I know.

        Thursday, 13-Jun-13 00:21:45 UTC from web
        1. @diamonddash You are still not makeing much sense to me

          Thursday, 13-Jun-13 00:22:15 UTC from web
          1. @critialcloudkicker how am I not making sense. Very few bronies I've met are even tolerable. These communist loving rainbow dash fans know nothing of the nationalistic power that can only come from functional members of society, like applejack, rarity, and twilight

            Thursday, 13-Jun-13 00:26:51 UTC from web
            1. @diamonddash Grammar mostly. But now I understand what you meant. Well. You are either a troll or you are taking this thing too seriously. It is a cartoon we enjoy, if we would love real life things we would all be playing second life or working at our physique or something

              Thursday, 13-Jun-13 00:28:55 UTC from web
              1. @critialcloudkicker Incorrect in both cases. I'm a sociologist, and it says something about a fandom when the idolized characters are the disfunctional ones. People have a tendency of liking those they relate to, and the lack of people who relate to the ponys who are consistently productive leads me to feel negatively towards those who favoritize the ponys who have repeatedly proven themselves as incompetent.

                1. @diamonddash Hello I like Rainbow Dash and am almost nothing like her at all

                  Thursday, 13-Jun-13 00:35:09 UTC from web
                2. @diamonddash I see... And what if I say that I merely like Rainbow Dash but carry a will do mentality like Big McIntosh myself ? Am I still a disgusting brony then ?

                  Thursday, 13-Jun-13 00:36:07 UTC from web
                  1. @critialcloudkicker There is a difference. I like all of the mane 6. In a functional society, there needs to be a balance between the better an tr lacking, thus 3 ponies who lack, and 3 who are superior. They all have strengths and weaknesses, some more than others. However, they play off each others strengths, and assist them in the areas they are weak. However, that is not the case with the fans. The majority prefers the lesser 3, which is a flaw. I do not suggest the lesser characters be abandoned, for then the fandom would be no better off than it is now. There is a lack of harmony when one side becomes unbalanced.

                    Thursday, 13-Jun-13 00:41:27 UTC from web
                    1. @diamonddash Soo... who are the 3 worst ponies again ?

                      Thursday, 13-Jun-13 00:42:10 UTC from web
                      1. @critialcloudkicker the ones who constantly have flawed views of reality. Such as narcissism, fear, or over-optimism

                        Thursday, 13-Jun-13 00:44:14 UTC from web
                        1. @diamonddash two of those fit Trixie

                          Thursday, 13-Jun-13 00:45:13 UTC from web
                          1. @pony which is why I can't stand trixie. Well, that and fallout equestria.

                            Thursday, 13-Jun-13 00:45:54 UTC from web
                            1. @diamonddash I haven't read that. !notyet

                              Thursday, 13-Jun-13 00:46:15 UTC from web
                        2. @diamonddash Lets seen, narcissism... That would be Rarity... Over-optimism that would be Pinkie Pie and sometimes Rainbow Dash... And then there is fear, that would apply to Rarity, Twilight Sparkle, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie and Fluttershy... So basically you are saying "Applejack is best pony" and also "Applejack is most boring pony"

                          Thursday, 13-Jun-13 00:46:14 UTC from web
                          1. @critialcloudkicker narcissism is rainbow dash. Rarity is usually quite modest, and though she does undoubtedly feel superior to most other ponies, she does not let it show.

                            Thursday, 13-Jun-13 00:51:38 UTC from web
                            1. @diamonddash I reckon that is just like your opinion. And you dislike people because they do not conform to something you have a strong opinion about ? What happened to getting to know someone before you cast a stone about liking or not liking said person ?

                              Thursday, 13-Jun-13 00:54:11 UTC from web
                    2. @diamonddash god damn spell check messed up a lot of my words. Hopefully you can still understand.

                      Thursday, 13-Jun-13 00:42:27 UTC from web
                    3. @diamonddash So basically I'm useless because I'm fluttershy?

                      Thursday, 13-Jun-13 00:43:07 UTC from web
                      1. @bowandlyre In his words, and only if Fluttershy is one of the lesser of the 6, yes. But then again I am also sure you are a godforsaken sinner by someone else's standards because you are a lefty

                        Thursday, 13-Jun-13 00:44:22 UTC from web
                        1. @critialcloudkicker Well consider my jimmies rustled. Then again over thinking is at play, over thinking ruins things.

                          Thursday, 13-Jun-13 00:45:50 UTC from web
                          1. @bowandlyre Meanwhile I think you are awesome, for I have yet to find any proof that you are not

                            Thursday, 13-Jun-13 00:46:46 UTC from web
                            1. @critialcloudkicker Thank you for that.

                              Thursday, 13-Jun-13 00:47:46 UTC from web
                              1. @bowandlyre And I probably remain thinking that for quite a while, or at least untill you start stating things which I do not like... Such as pro feminism banter. Pro rape banter. Or start acting like a grapes whilst shouting the lord's name... Who is the lord ? Dunno... Do you have a religion ?

                                Thursday, 13-Jun-13 00:51:14 UTC from web
                                1. @critialcloudkicker I'm catholic but i like to keep quiet about it.

                                  Thursday, 13-Jun-13 00:53:47 UTC from web
                                  1. @bowandlyre I was raised in a catholic cathedral, and I live in a VERY catholic village. Sadly I think of myself as an agnostic. But I think I would like Buddhism, Sadly I have nowhere to turn with my questions. And for me personally, I think that it would more be a matter of socializing with IRL people than about the actual "worshipping" ( quotation marks for a good reason )

                                    Thursday, 13-Jun-13 00:56:48 UTC from web
                                    1. @critialcloudkicker I converted to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints from SGA Buddhism. I still consider myself buddhist in many ways though.

                                      Thursday, 13-Jun-13 00:58:11 UTC from web

                                    Thursday, 13-Jun-13 00:56:58 UTC from web
                      2. @bowandlyre I did not say the lesser three were useless. In fct, I said the exact opposite. I said the lesser three were necessary in a proper society.

                    4. @diamonddash Come on man, I'm a Dash fan and yet I perform perfectly in myriad of jobs. You can be arrogant and yet be a perfectly functioning member of society. Dash is portrayed in the show as the very elite in her job, able to give results many times better than most other members of her species.

            2. @diamonddash Man that was hilarious

              Thursday, 13-Jun-13 00:36:18 UTC from web
              1. @nerthos Love and tolerate man... Love and tolerate... Even if it is kneeslappingly hilarious... And even if I want to see him squirm in neigh impossible shapes to keep this conversation going XD

                Thursday, 13-Jun-13 00:37:36 UTC from web
                1. @critialcloudkicker I'm not hating, I'm sincerely laughing. Dash has literally nothing to do with communism.

                  Thursday, 13-Jun-13 00:38:21 UTC from web
                  1. @nerthos What do you think communism is anyway ? ... And I am talking about feeling versus knowing here

                    Thursday, 13-Jun-13 00:39:03 UTC from web
                    1. @critialcloudkicker Communism is a good concept that can't work in a species where individuals are not equal. It's simply a really good idea that can't be applied to humanity.

                2. @critialcloudkicker I mean, the guy is saying nationalism is good xD

                  Thursday, 13-Jun-13 00:39:07 UTC from web
                  1. @nerthos Is it ? I believe it is VERY closely associated with American patriotism when it goes a little extremist

                    Thursday, 13-Jun-13 00:40:24 UTC from web
                    1. @critialcloudkicker And we all have seen where that has lead. History proves nationalism unable to exist in a peaceful society.

                      Thursday, 13-Jun-13 00:43:15 UTC from web
                      1. @nerthos Name one example where nationalism has failed

                        Thursday, 13-Jun-13 00:45:01 UTC from web
                        1. @diamonddash Failed to do what exactly.

                          Thursday, 13-Jun-13 00:47:03 UTC from web
                          1. @nerthos succeed.

                            Thursday, 13-Jun-13 00:49:41 UTC from web
                            1. @diamonddash Nationalism is a good method of building a short-lived empire, since it turns people into drones bent on archieving a goal for a particular faction or country, yes; but it also sows the seeds of universal hate towards that empire. Nationalist countries quickly grow, attack and take control of other nations, but in a few years they either run out of resources or are faced with a coalition of other nations as a result of their actions which ends in the destruction of the nationalist estate. Take Nazi Germany as the perfect example of the second type, where they reconstructed a destroyed nation and made it probably the biggest power of it's time, but caused their own downfall due to their nationalist and zealous nature. Or take USA as another example, a nation built on nationalism that is decaying due to being built in hypocrisy, being surrounded by other countries that will go vulture on it as soon as it crashes due to their actions in the last few decades.

                              Thursday, 13-Jun-13 00:56:29 UTC from web
                              1. @nerthos I don't think you even understand what nationalism is. It's more than a form of goverment. It is a mindset of a nation

                                Thursday, 13-Jun-13 00:57:39 UTC from web
                                1. @diamonddash And that's where I'm going. The mindset is what causes the nation to clash with others and eventually cause many other nations to band together against them.
