So I got caught up in the My Little Pony craze (I'll just watch one episode, see what all these people are talking about..), joined the Boston Bronies meetup group and last weekend drove to Baltimare, MD(sorry, bad horse puns are required!) for BronyCon 2015, the largest MLP convention in the world. Allow me to share with you my observations.

This is either the most awesome auto-immolation, ever, or the weirdest opus...

This is probably the only thing I’m ashamed about on FR. Especially given the individualism in harmony message and impact the show has, culminating in the Season 5 premiere as a complete and thorough trashing of collectivism.
Then they complain that all new TV is terrible, without listening to Freeper suggestions, some of whom being here from the beginning.

About a dozen friends nabbed me and dragged me screaming to it.

I remember when CSI Las Vegas ran an episode called ‘Fur and Loathing’ (good pun). The episode’s murder happened at a ‘Furries’ convention, sort of a cousin to the bronie stuff from the looks of it.
Evidently Greater Furry Nation was upset because it portrayed them as deviants who like to dress up like stuffed animals and have sex. Not that I’m saying there’s anything wrong with it. I mean sometimes when I get the urge to look like a giant raccoon...

Glad you had a great time. Man, I haven’t been to a con of any kind in over a decade. Maybe I need to get out more.
Maybe I should pop in and visit A-Kon next year if that’s still around...
