Sometimes I do things that seem nice or friendly to me and don't seem like a very bad idea. And then within a week I'm kicking myself for it. Makes me wonder if doing things for others that I wouldn't have done regardless is a bad idea. I'm just. Really doubting my way of thinking about other people right now. Not sure my emotional state is wroth it. And as I've said before, letting others control your emotions is only steps away from letting them control your mind and body. May be best not to leave those links laying around.

@derpybronylikesrarity Ah. :O ...I'd like to watch.
-
@derpybronylikesrarity So AJ and Big Mac will team up together to take a bite out of that big crop?
-
CONFOUND YOU BLASTED PONY FANS. I CAN'T UNHEAR AJ's "saggy old plow" IN THE TICKET MASTER AS A EUPHEMISM/DOUBLE-ENTENDRE

@engelhardt I disagree with this rant. But I will personally use #TheHerd. So as long as I'm still living, there's at least one person going for it.

@thelastgherkin *Spams the Cuddlehugs!*
-
@thelastgherkin True that. True that. This I can not deny. But what is a balloon? A cheerful pocket of DEATH and possibly joy and air or something
-
@thelastgherkin XD I wonder if that means anything. My Little Balloon: Deflation is Magic?
-
@scribus Yepyep. XD Most of the people I know use dude on almost anything and everything humanlike. If they use the term at all. Though I've heard the occasional person who objects to that term, but it's usually an objection to the term dude itself rather than objections to being considered male when they're really female. (That said, I use 'dude' more often on the internet. Very rarely in my speaking lexicon.)

@theowl Being defeatist isn't good for persuasion. (Also, the amalgam is still masculine regardless of where 4chan did it, or fchan did it, or gurochan did it. If we want to refer specifically to /b/ronies though, the argument still falls as /b/ro is still masculine. Majority of the users of 4chan are known to be young adult males. http://www.4chan.org/advertise )

@engelhardt I am totally down with calling it #TheHerd
-
@thelastgherkin Pop them all! MUAHAHAHAHAhahah also, unemployment does not sound fun. But yeah, silver and yellow. That kinda makes me think of Celestia colors! <3
-
Might sound like a joke, but if you want to *really* learn language vocab? Make flashcards. Drill old ones regularlly.
-
Shoot. Friggin. It's past Midnight isn't it. I shouldn't have clicked freaking TVTropes
-
@mrbrown I think they might have changed it back, but whatever it was I saw earlier was not fun.

I'm going back to Gwibber or something

AAAAAAAAAA WTF IS WITH THIS NEW HEADER IMAGE
-
I still intend to do the art update before midnight but OH MAN JUST SO MUCH STUFF IN THIS STREAM
-
@thelastgherkin Lovely! :D Sounds like a pretty cheery color set! :D
-
"We couldn't fit it all in." #bronyville
-
@thelastgherkin Leave it to me to misread that and substitute balloons for ponies.
-
@thelastgherkin Dude that is freaking AWESOME
-
@engelhardt I remember the first time I was made the mod of a forum. I was actually. Kinda afraid of all the new buttons for a few months, but then when the spambots came in, I did need to use some of those features.
-
Not gonna kid around. With the massivehuge @bronyville thing going on today, my usual art update thing isn't that high on my priority list.
-
@theowl "They can call themselves pegasisters all they like, don't tell me what I can and can't do." The way you splice these two sentences implies that I'm commanding you to do something. Not sure if that was intentional or not. But I disagree, and acknowledge that I didn't start my initial post efficiently. Bronies as a term to refer to the unexpected demographic of FiM specifically is suiting, but Bronies as FiM or MLP fans in general gets dubious from the implied meaning of the amalgamation of Bro Ponies. I guess even then it ties back against my earlier argument of it being fitting, as it would seem to imply male MLP fans in general, but then it gets even more dicey if we trace it does to 4chan roots I prefer to disregard. But it still doesn't resolve my earlier question of what would be better. Pony fans? FiM fans? But I guess in the end, the comment you're giving me this time isn't a question so much as a personal declaration. I'm not sure what I'm supposed to respond to that.
-
@macpony55 Coming up with another name for female fans ends up causing a worse issue of *forcing* the divide further by saying that WELL NOW IF YOU USE THE OTHER TERM YOU ARE WRONG. Also, I'm not convinced the entirety is male, so much as what I was getting at before: By having the term tinted for male use, females have less reason to use it. In some sense, yes. Bronies referring to specifically male fans fits well for FiM's unexpected demographic well. But when referring to fans of MLP or FiM at large, using Bronies to refer to that group is a massive undercutting of the intended categorization.
-
@theowl No clue if it's offending other females, but think of it this way. If every single pony fan ever had to be called fillies, do you think most of the males would be fast to flip it at the tongue? It goes the same way around. Though admittedly, in my case, I pretty much refuse to define fans by their label. Including myself.
