Ahhh...I see...you know, one day a historian will write about the bronys...

@basscannon Historians have never written about any other fandom and we're not some super-special thing.
-
@redenchilada well, it IS an official sub-culture...
-
@basscannon No. Trust me. We're not special. There have been dozens of other fandoms like ours.
-
@redenchilada the only way we're special is that we challenge masculine stereotypes, but I still think just that is enough to say we're special.
-
@basscannon Pop culture commentators aren't real historians. If any "historians" talk about bronies, it'll be on VH1's "I Love the Twenty-Teens." Or whatever the hell we're calling this decade.

@redenchilada and we're larger than other fandoms that have challenged stereotypes in the past, like the PPG fandom for example
-
@pony Yeah, but we're not doing anything that would really justify much attention accept shoving the ponies down the throats of everyone with eyes or ears
-
@redenchilada xD There are extremists in every group I suppose.
-
@colfax I can just picture it now. Wild hair, half-smile, parenthetic-hand-pose, and just one word: "Bronies."
-
@redenchilada so are you saying that we discriminate against the blind and deaf.? I AM ASHAMED SIR. SIMPLY ASHAMED.
-
@colfax And then the old holdouts who are still overly mental about the show will brag about being the first fandom to get a metameme made about their own meme, whether it's true or not.
-
@madflavors Well there's not much for one to enjoy about the show if they can neither see nor hear.
-
@madflavors @redenchilada you're right! We should start a campaign to transcribe the episodes and best fanfics to braille!!

@redenchilada You like PONIES. You like PONIES. You love them. You love them. You cannot resist PONIES. To resist is hopeless. Your life is meaningless without PONIES.
RedEnchilada (notice the lack of a space) and I am best poni like this. -
@colfax They'll find a homeless man who lives inside of a shoebox.
-
@pony Why don't we just get a brain ray at this point?
-
@colfax I'd just as soon say cutie mark tramp stamp
-
@madflavors neigh! for the betterment of ponykind!
-
@colfax also don't forget the extensive look into the whole Lyra plushie thing too

@madflavors That'll be an entire 3 parts.
-
@zeldatra @madflavors Part 1: a general survey of ponysexuality; Part 2: Lyra's role in the show and in fanon; Part 3: the anatomically correct Lyra plushie and resulting impact on brony culture. and sex toy sales.
-
@pony @madflavors Ok, when it gets into discussion of sex toys, it should probably be dialed back for the sake of appropriateness.
-
@redenchilada yeah. Sorry about that.
-
@redenchilada for science! http://goo.gl/Y5RYD butsure. I get what you're saying.
