Adventure Time With Finn & Jake-"Shut Your Face" - YouTube

Ah, but Adventure Time was created to be a humorous show in the first place... It doesn't really hold the same "it's funny because it's ironic" value.

My little pony is win.
Seen all the episodes.
If I could, I'd have a desktop fluttershy and pinkie pie.
Damnit science. Damnit Faust.

I still miss Cow & Chicken, but this is the best modern cartoon in this decade. You just can't argue with that. Fosters home got last decade, and before that, it was PPG.
Faust is a cartoon goddess.

You guys have no idea how good it feels to be new to a forum and find this.

My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic | Know Your Meme

For those who are confused

Also, they are cute as hell. Going to try watching one :O Wish me luck :P

caskettheclown · 02-16-2012, 05:48 PM

ALSO It has a lot of cameo's in it that you might not expect. Couple of Dr. Who's and some characters from the Big Lebowski!

My enterance into bronydom can be described to eerie amounts of accuracy to by the episode two weeks ago, Read It and Weep. I was home from school, sick. A couple of my friends were telling me to watch it and, when I exhausted all other things to do, I watched the episode Sonic Rainboom. I didn't want to like it, but I did. Then I tried to hide it until I slipped up and made reference to the episode. Now its much easier not feeling like I had to hide it, I hang out with a shitload of bronies!

I guess you aren't acquainted with Discord.

Played by John De Lancie. You probably know him as playing this guy.

And Discord is an obvious, though a tad silly, homage to Q.

-_- We're only 2 years into the decade... This show isn't going to last that long. You're all seeming to realize that not much lasts too long on the big CN.

The misadventures of Flap Jack was supposed to be great, but is that even still showing?

Now they have Adventure Time, and the other one about a tall Blue Jay, and we all know those aren't going to be relevant for too much longer.

It's just a cartoon, guys, you'll find something else to get giddy over in a few months, hopefully it's busty women.

Demiurge · 02-16-2012, 09:02 PM

I probably know way too much about the goings-on at the Jersey Shore, so I am not in a position to judge with regard to TV habits. Gotta ask, though, is this some thing where the makers of the cartoon took an older IP and deliberately made it appealing to a demographic outside of what many would assume it to be?

Raaaaal13 · 02-16-2012, 09:31 PM

Its so awesome to log in today and see this. I got into the show not too long ago but its definitely a favorite. I was wondering why so many memes were being made about it and I started watching...and now I'm hooked. It certainly helps that this show plays on The Hub along with my favorite current show on tv, Transformers Prime. As far as reasoning for watching the show, its actually enjoyable to me. I couldn't stand the garbage cartoons being plastered on tv nowadays. All the shows on Cartoon Network seem that they're only watchable if you're on some form of hallucinogen. Really glad to see this pop up.

No, Hasbro wanted a show for that would appeal to children, yet remain watchable to their parents. To do that, they hired Lauren Faust, the woman responsible for Power Puff Girls and Fosters Home for Imaginary Friends. They didn't expect it to be at all popular with young men, especially in the 18-34 demo.

The power of Irony is really the only thing this generation of teens has going for it.

Please explain.

Sicarius · 02-16-2012, 10:45 PM

Your generation has somehow turned irony, into their own little super power.

Show for girls:: internet cult following started on the internet by boys/man-children

It's pretty self-explanatory.

Fiction · 02-16-2012, 10:48 PM

It's definitely not the fact they like the show?

Sicarius · 02-16-2012, 10:54 PM

Nope.

I think the fact that this thread exists proves it's more about the ironic following (the I'm in the brony club! thing) than just appreciation for the show. The word "brony" is even a shot at irony. I mean the show is watchable, but I'm not sure it's so great that it must become part of one's identity...especially older dudes.

HeHasTheJazzHands · 02-17-2012, 12:05 AM

Eh, Its not really my thing to be honest. And I'm kinda biased against bronies because of a few bad egg's I've met. They like to tout that "love and tolerance" stuff and.... lets just say they need to practice what they preach.

I know its not good to generalize, I've met and see a few good bronies (Especially the people on this forum), but

.

The show's decent. I couldn't get into it though. Then again, the only shows I can still watch from my childhood are Ed, Edd, & Eddy and Johnny Bravo. I'm into the Discovery Channel and History channel now.

And I'm ever so slowly getting back into anime, but I really doubt I will fully get back into it.

AngstRiddenDreams · 02-17-2012, 12:18 AM

I have honestly never heard of a Bronie before...

Brony is Bro + Pony, the word itself isn't related to the obvious love affair they have with irony and MLP.
