Basically. Lyoko222, darkf(Ben), K2323(closeted), Yuki, and myself all like My Little Pony. Lauren Faust remade the 80s series into something so awesomely epic now that there's even 35-year-old guys out there watching it. The plots, characters, stories, and humor are so well done that it has millions upon millions of viewers now and not just the targeted audiance of little girls.

Comex, Ben, and I even went to New York for BronyCon a convention of 4000 people back in June/July

Thanks chase, I'm going to be back and forth. Overtime and college! Life's picking up, but I really want to bring a new arc back to the table.

Well that's cool. I've been hearing a lot about it but haven't really checked it out.

If I had time, I might. Just the fact that it's MLP though... But if it's half as good as people say, I'd give it a try.

It's really not that great. I had to watch a few episodes when I had my fiance over for the memorial day weekend. Not that interesting.
Seeing the world through a child's eyes is truly a unique experience. It helps you to retrieve that sense of awe, magic and wonder that you lost as you lost your innocence. Tell me, when was the last time that you thought of those childhood dreams? You know, the ones that you used to spend all your time wondering and fantasizing about? Have you forgotten them so easily? Have you forgotten what it felt like to see something for the first time, to see the magic in the mundane? Everyone says you should take the time to 'Stop and smell the roses'. But you should also take the time to look for the fairies, embrace the wind and enjoy the rain. Just once today, stop for a moment and look into that little piece of nature you pass everyday. Perhaps you may see something you did not notice before.

Thank you for saying what I can only think because everyone around me is a pony fan.

I don't care if someone's a fan of something, but when people bring it as far as say, Hikaru, something's quite clearly wrong and it must be pointed out. It's as simple as that. Obsession, no matter what it's regarding, is unhealthy.

I saw someone even older at BroNYCon. He had a long beard and a sign on his back that said "The worlds official oldest brony."

Also, @Zai, sorry. I knew I forgot some people. I was just listing the people I knew off the top of my head that talk about it all day long.
