 <html>It's kinda funny how I came to be a brony. I was browsing Kotaku one day when I came across this video: &lt;a href=&quot;http://youtu.be/egrlzkKa6O8&quot; title=&quot;http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=egrlzkKa6O8&amp;amp;feature=youtu.be&quot; class=&quot;attachment&quot; id=&quot;attachment-6947&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow external&quot;&gt;http://youtu.be/egrlzkKa6O8&lt;/a&gt;. Naturally, I was extremely confused as to why such a thing had been created. When it was followed up by Ponycraft 2 (&lt;a href=&quot;http://youtu.be/JJbAT1wzS8U&quot; title=&quot;http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JJbAT1wzS8U&amp;amp;feature=youtu.be&quot; class=&quot;attachment thumbnail&quot; id=&quot;attachment-6948&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow external&quot;&gt;http://youtu.be/JJbAT1wzS8U&lt;/a&gt;), I knew I had to get the bottom of this. So I put up a journal on my DA page, asking my friends for their two cents. The call was answered by @&lt;span class=&quot;vcard&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://rainbowdash.net/user/1645&quot; class=&quot;url&quot; title=&quot;Raven Feather&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;fn nickname&quot;&gt;ravenfeather&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;, who watched the first two episodes. You can imagine my further confusion when she returned to say that I needed to watch them, too! I resisted for about a week, but she insisted, and I finally agreed to watch it. And the rest, as they say, is history.</html>
