I'll be seeing you space bounty hunter!

May you return in one piece so I may rustle those R34 jimmies.
Really, really

Also, Queen Chrysallis shall accompany you, go get 'em tiger.

@Windigo:

Sorry Windigo, but we've seen that gif before :P

As for whether egg eaters are vegetarians, it's a blurry line that many in the vegetarian community are still debating. It's a very blurry line.

First, a joke. What do you call a horse that can eat a meals worth of fried eggs? My ass. Mahhahahah… ENOUGH!

Anyways, how exactly can ponies recreate something of which they have no knowledge of how it tastes? Assuming of course that they are strictly vegetarian. Also, why would they end up incorporating it into their cuisine? Thats explanation is way too far fetched. A better explanation is that it is beetroot. On to the eggs, regardless of what society considers to be a vegetarian diet for humans, when an animal eats animal protein on a regular basis( which we can assume because of the fact that rarity cooked up eggs for breakfast, and its probably used to make pastries) It is not a vegetarian( or Herbivore). I hate to sound like a broken record, but look at the egg eating snake. Its a carnivore yet eats only eggs. Lets face it, an egg is essentially a womb. If an animal were to regularly eat placentas, it would be considered an omnivore. I know, mammals will eat their placenta to protect from predators and stimulate milk production amongst other things, but the key word is regularly, because if a herbivore ate it more than once, it would surely die. I guess for now we can say that they are vegetarians by human standards, but they have the capacity to consume meat and are not herbivores.

CASE CLOSED

Hey guys, check this out.

Lauren Faust's statement
Link related to funding site of project
Equestria Daily News

At long last our fandom is about to be revealed to the outside world. Will they accept or will they deny?

DISCUSS!

Honestly, I think the main thing to come from this- for better or worse- will be references to the fandom in other forms of media. Brony South Park episode, brony Weird Al song, brony Dead Rising psychopath, brony CSI eipsode, et cetera, et cetera.

I'm still super duper excited to see the documentary though.

Eariler today I woke up.
Just a whole load earlier then I usually do.
And guess what I saw.

That.
I missed Loona. I really did.
It's the only reason I really like 'Luna' herself.
so fangasm over here

I just love how it's implied in the last panel that Rainbow is not only a winner, but also a WINRAR.
Very clever, Madmax.

I missed the party, dang. I happen to be a big fan of Derpy, so I'm pretty excited. It's cool to see her getting more attention in spite of the, shall we say, misgivings of some.

Take care of Chrysalis, while I’m gone, okay?

Her Highness can handle herself, if you ask me…

@Bruelock

I don't care what anyone says, that documentary is going to be awesome and I WILL be wanting that DVD.

Pic related to both that and the Derpy toy:

Two people payed over ten thousand dollars to have dinner with John, Tara, and Lauren and are now co-producers…

Alright, it's morning here, and I'm going to leave pretty soon. So, I'll get the last few things out:
@Lasers
Well, it doesn't affect my view of Celestia, at all. But what it was showing is something that can (and does) rustle my jimmies a bit. I could've been with any character, so the situation is what got me mad.
I probably shouldn't let it get to me that much, but I was already not in a fantastic mood.

@Dan
Yeah, she can. Just making sure though.

@X-singular
…now I get it with the WinRar. Thanks for pointing it out.

@El Sinker
So, you want me back safe, just so you can rustle my jimmies?
Alrighty then…
Oh, an err.. the queen. Travelling? With me?
…………………….

Anyway, I'll be gone, so, the derailing or the reactions to the rather-not-so-soft shipping stuff (I'm okay with it as long as it's not too suggestive) will be silent. Again, send me a PM or post on my wall, so I can at least read it when I get the chance. Other than that, I'll be completely offline while I'm gone, so take care!

I say we spam his wall and PM with shipping pictures.

@Popper

So, you want me back safe, just so you can rustle my jimmies?
Alrighty then…

There's no need to be so bashful. We all know the real reason why you give horrified reactions to just about every single image that could possibly rustle jimmies.

You just love having rustled jimmies…that is your fetish…

…isn't it Popper?

Welp, have fun on your journey. Good luck and take care

@Joe

Oh yes, and he will enjoy it ever so much. Muahahahaha

@Joe & BSoD

No, just sexual stuff (or when it's getting a little intimate) weirds me out, but it doesn't like make me go on a crusade. It's just strange.

Anyway, gotta go!

>Will they accept or deny?

Deny.

Definitely Deny.

To them, we're no different than furries. (Which is true to an extent.)

In fact according to them, we're worse than furries because we watch a little girl's show.

The media's going to do what they always do and make us look like freaks, regardless of the truthiness of the documentary.

…But who gives a damn what the public thinks anyway? The public is stupid.

Like this?

First off, I think people will still look down on us. Why you ask? Look no further than the star wars or star trek fandoms. Both are series loved by many, but people still look down on the overzealous fanboys. Even Raiders fans are looked down upon. Why are people gonna feel any different about groups of guys meeting up to discuss candy colored ponies? Hell, I can understand why society looks down on people overzealous about anything( sports included). Its just a little obsessive and odd I guess.
Anyways, about the doc. As a casual fan of the show, I have no interest at all to see it. Besides you guys, I don't really care about any other part of the fandom. Also, we are such a young fandom. Why do we need a documentary? Whatever I guess, I'm sure some people are excited to see it. Im not.

I was gonna pledge $10 to the documentary. I don't care enough to pledge half my money, but I would like to see this thing be as quality as possible, and think it'd be a really interesting thing to watch. I don't doubt that people will still look down on us or judge us, but they always will. With the documentary here, we can smack them in the face and call them ignorant.

It's not like I don't already have enough to get judged for, so I'm not gonna care that anybody still judges any of us. I'm going to support, buy, and watch (the holy fuck out of) the documentary. Not because it will make everybody stop judging us, but because it's a study on a culture, a community, a group, and something that's driven my life for the past year.

TL;DR: Screw the establishment, I have ponies.

@Lasers: You know what you said about the Lyra plushie a few pages back? Take a look at this.

Well….. if this whole face-eating zombie thing comes to fruition I think we all know what we need to do…

Love and tolerate the shit out of them with rocket powered ponies!

And Twilight Sparkle shall be our glorious leader!

You should care what the public thinks. You don't have to submit to mainstream norms, but they can't be ignored entirely without exposing yourself to systematic disadvantage and, sometimes, outright harm.

But yeah. Unless this is on par with what are considered the greatest documentaries ever, then this isn't going to change what the mainstream thinks about a fandom of men breaking some of the most well-established, most easily perpetuated, and most wide-ranging norms in Western society. If this documentary were able to do that, then we'd be at the precipice of a change in society much, much, MUCH bigger than making bronies look good.

Anyway, take a look at this site in the image link.

If you use Ponibooru a lot like me, then you know that it is a notoriously slow site. Derpibooru has fewer images, but it also seems like it has a lot less of the meta posts, troll posts, and screenshots that Ponibooru has. It also is currently functional and runs quickly.

There is also Bronibooru, but that is specifically for the mlponies/ponygoons forum. They have that site for posting images to their forum and they wouldn't appreciate us sapping their bandwidth, but I figure it's fine for browsing. They also do not allow questionable posts, let alone explicit posts, so you don't have to worry about that, and they seem to have more posts than Derpibooru.

Down with the pony image monopoly! We need a true market for our ponu!

I'm graduating high school tonight.

Lucky Bastard.

CONGRATULATIONS!

Congratulations!

Can I put aside ponies for one sec and say this? NEW SKYRIM DLC IS COMING OUT!!!

And with that, I shall go back to ponies.

I shall also give you a new song by H8_Seed and The Wooden Toaster, himself!

I have been seeing an increasing amount of sexually suggestive images in the gallery. Does the amount of sexual images increase during the summer or has this trend just started up recently (this does not include the Lyra Plushie)? Is it because we are running out of original content and falling back on sexual images (because sex sells) to replace the lack of content?
I am not upset by this.

But being relatively new to the site I can't help but notice this trend.

See, this is what the world thinks of bronies. That damn plushie ruined everything. Now, people are just creeped out

Also, unrelared to LOL above.
The world shall be ours

It's the wait for season three IMHO.
I know the hiatus has driven me to trollfiction, and I assume it's driving other bronies to insanity as well.
Pic related.

Edit:
@Zarathh H8_Seed song
I dunno, I'm not really getting a "pony" vibe from that song. If it didn't have ponies in the video I'd probably assume it was a Megaman tribute. I think the "blood on the chrome" and the 8-bitish synth riff is what caused that… it's a good song anyway.

It's funny to Pinkie because she is also insane!!!

"Humans will extinct themselves in the next thousand years anyways due to nuclear war or Celestia"

Surrounding that Lyra doll:

It's just a dumb plushie made by one person. Plus the person that's buying it and possible others that wanted it. Let's go with 10 bronies who actually want that thing for its intended purpose (a sexdoll). Maybe even 20, because we're just so outrageous.

With a brony community as big as it is now, I can confirm we're nothing worse than your average fandom.

Plus I'm suprised. You'd expect that plushie to get the same feedback as the Derpy incident. Only disgust towards its existence and never wanting to hear about it again. But after the first grossed out reactions, most people just lol at it. Now all the content made surrounding that thing is mostly funny and doesn't look at it like a sexdoll at all.

So overall:

@RM
It brings Pinkie got a new idea!
Let's take the ponies corpses and use them as foot wear!!!
I WILL BE FILTHY RICH!

Also:

Zecora is afraid of ghosts it seems, I told her to laugh at the ghosties!

Regarding the Lyra plushie;

@Zarathh
>My Multiple Face When

Sniff This fandom is growing up so fast…

I swear, people are having a goddamn field day with this toy.

HAA HAA HAA HAA HAA HAA HAA

@Fridge
Some random Escher quotes (the guy who drew the original waterfall thing, as well as other mindf##ks)

"I am always wandering around in enigmas."
"I play a tiresome game"
"We adore chaos because we love to produce order"
"Only those who attempt the absurd will achieve the impossible. I think it's in my basement… let me go upstairs and check."

That proves it- Escher is the humanized Discord. Hell, he even looks like him.

Well, gave the Lyra Plushie entry a clean-up. Looks a lot better now.

Feel free to give reactions or reviews.

@Dr. Gregory

It's funny, because I also busted you of uploading that type of content multiple times.

As for your question. It's a bit more now, but I doubt this will stay. We had small peaks of more questionable content numerous times before. It'll slow down again. Not to forget people tend to upload dupes, so some of those have probably been posted before. But as I can't really tell which ones, randomly removing them would be unfair.

@Pinkamena

Verbose is going to kill you.

Can't argue with that logic.

It seems we're entering a thick shipping battle tonight my friends, so bunker down the hatches.

>2012

>Shipping battle

When did that even get declared, anyway

@Joe Amethyst
I don't see any shipping battle happening here…is it gonna happen in the comments or image gallery or something?

@Fridge
Uhm, erhm. About a week and a half ago? Sounds about right.

Gallery, as usually, mista Ric.

It seems only yesterday that I saw them rage over their first rule 34 pic.

Sniff I'm so proud of them.

@Joe

Please be aware of dupes and don't go too crazy. Post images because you want to contribute to the image gallery, not because you want to best someone in posting ships.

It was funny at first, but now people are getting annoyed.

Also tell this to Advance in case he doesn't read the thread.

(I'm just gonna post this on both your walls, just reply on my wall)

Which one? There was the scandalous bikinis pic, the soft-core rule34 pic and the Lyra doll.
p.s. I did not randomly emblem pictures, you can find them in the image gallery.

Speaking of rule 34 check this out.

Surprise!!!! I would not post real rule 34 stuff here.

For some reason I thought you were gonna say the shipping thread, I am happy that I was wrong.
Don't start a shipping war in the shipping thread unless you want to see Gamzee pull out the sick stuff.

Speaking of shipping… Have some Rarity x Tom.
