A few years back there was a thread about Mil bronies.

Yes ladies, I am available!

If you wear a groundhog costume I'm all yours.

They look a little but herpetaphobic and ornithophobic to me... not seeing any scales and feathers.

STOP THE HATE

It might take a while to get a fursuit made, but I'm pretty big, round and furry to begin with!

We love MLP here. My daughter wants to be Queen chrysalis for Halloween. (Evil scary pony with holes in her) Maybe you are the one who told me the plot lines are conservative in nature. Glad of it.

The only thing that creeps me out is the human / pony dolls. I don’t buy them. I do not understand them. I like them to stay ponies.

Hasbro wanted to sell dolls, so they forced to writers to create a humanoid parallel universe.

The conventions are pretty apolitical and I know both liberal and conservative bronies.

No offense buddy, but speaking as a member of the opposite sex, if I were single I’d be looking for a Mike Cernovich or Paul Watson type.

The “My Little Pony” fellas don’t make my pulse race.

A girl can get Apple Fritters almost anywhere. What she needs is a man.

When a girl picks a man, she needs to look out for the gene pool and pick strong, manly men. A man that would protect her and the children, and provide for them.

You segue into that, and Miss Thing will be waiting for you at the door holding a plate of Apple Fritters to welcome you home me.

Hate it. Doesn’t make sense in any good way. Deserves to be ignored.

They have a huge economic impact on Downtown Pittsburgh. Which is a sorry comment on Downtown Pittsburgh.
