Quote:Yes, I know you have edited it. But seriously...why does JC (and others) like ponies so much?
Moved by curiosity I watched 10-15 min. in youtube... ok, yes, they are cute if you like cute things, but "oruchuban ebichu" is also cute....
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B0LaNDv2nGg My theory is that it is a very good show that
should be horrible. What people expect are one dimensional charters, pointless stupid stories, and pretty much pointless stupid everything. But the cartoon is amazing, The charters have huge and unique personalities, (except for Big Mac) and the creators of the show actually give a damn about what they are making. If it were about anything other than ponies it would not have this kind of following.
My Little Pony is
WRONG. The show is the opposite of what it should be. We should hate watching it, but instead we love watching the show. This fascinates people, and eventually people come to acceptance that they love this "gay little kids show" about cute little candy colored ponies. And then the keep going and they embrace it. A
cartoon changes their opinion and views so much that it fascinates them.
Often this fascination leads to obsession.
By the way. If you decide to try to take another look at the show to try to figure out what is going on, I recommend watching episode 10 Swarm of the Century. It starts out cute and girly, but that is intentionally misleading.
tl;dr liking MLP is sick and wrong. but some people *cough*4chan*cough* like things that are sick and wrong.
