That ignorant moronic antibrony doesn't get it.

He's the one who's clinging to the past, not us.  But not a personal past, the past of humans long dead.  This "everyone in a certain group has to like this stuff" thing dates back to when extra-family social relations were just forming.  If one member of a group had a certain physical hinderance, then he couldn't do the things the other group members could.  Because there was no need to hold onto him, they outcast him.  That's the root of this, a kind of social version of natural selection.  Hey, why not call it social selection?  As time went on, social selection began to apply to not just physical things, but cultural things.  It became to be that any aspect of a person that was unfarmiliar to most people was thought of as strange and needed to be excluded.  This created little to no tolerance for different things.  Now, social selection isn't neccesary for the physically or culturally different.  We know ways to help people who have something that's acually a problem.  But people still practice social selection for things that aren't problems.  They do it no matter what the different thing is.  People still hold onto old values unreasonably.  They never analyze the idea to decide for themselves if they want to go along with it.  They only go along with it out of the fear they'll be excluded if they don't.  Anyone who tries to exclude a person, a group of people, or even an object is basically saying the same thing; "It goes against present values.".  They're such stick-in-the-muds with thier values.  If only everyone would realize what values are doing harm and adjust thier values accordingly.  This whole subbornness is ridiculous and irrational.  It's a shame that so many people do this.

The values endorsed in MLP, however, are much better.  They're more constructive and logical.  Even though such ideas are thought to be for children, they're better fit for all ages.  They were designed for kids because they didn't want to expose the kids to the "adult" ideas too soon and wanted to teach the younger generation better values.  In doing so, they created values better for everyone.  This is why us bronies like it.  By comparison, we see the show's values are better.  The best way we can find these values is wrapped in an entertaining package, which is the show.  We crave this escape from present values that is also very entertaining.  Both of those things make it a very enjoyable show that is like no other.  We want to share this with others, because we know it's good for everypony.

If everypony in the world was a brony (or pegasister), then the world would be a much better place.  The old values will be discarded at last, and we will have values that are fit for the present instead of the past.

(That concludes this really long post.)

So much winning.

I went there back in 2008. Have you been there before?

Yeah, I live about 2 hours away. I used to go every year but this is the first time I've been in a while.

I learned Hush Now Quite now (Fluttershy's one) on the piano a few days ago, and today, I started figuring out a bit of the theme song, hopefully, I'll be able to play it in its entirety sometime.
(Which is going to probably take a bunch of effort since I'm such a horrible piano player and can't read music) He he

My friend's brother has a band which plays many of the songs from the show, and he might be able to give me sheet music for Winter Wrap-Up and the theme on the trombone. Wheeee.

I want to learn how to play guitar just so I can play Pinkie's Brew from Friendship is Witchcraft.

:U

1.) It's actually not a jazz band, it's an actual rock and roll band with guitars and drums and all that stuff. He said he'll try to translate the sheet music to trombone.
2.) I dunno. I don't think so, but not positive.

I do a similar thing with the made-up word "gabatay" Literally meaning "I'm frustrated" used for a character I thought up called Sqwee. I've sneaked this word into both How to Not Rob a Bank and Pirates Rule!

ON TOPIC: Two of my friends wish to watch MLP with another friend and I, now all I need to do is convince him to watch it with us and I may finally have some personal MLP friends. Hahahahaha! >:D
(Any ideas on how to convince him?)

Either that or show him "Party of One". That was the first one I saw and it got me hooked, and it was the first I showed to some friends and they loved it.
