KYM Pony General V: We Just Don't Know What Went Wrong

Last posted Jul 01, 2012 at 04:43PM EDT. Added Feb 19, 2012 at 11:27PM EST

So this page went from a Scootaloo thread, to a Derpy thread, to a Pyro thread, to a Sweetie Belle thread. We sure are on topic right now.

Methinks we need to reach page 200 sooner.

And mark my words, this time, I will be the first poster in that thread.

Oh, and Sweetie Belle and Rarity are best Cutie Mark Crusader and mane pony respectively.

@RandomMan

I'm glad you brought up the parody aspect, because I was meaning to mention that as part of my brief review.

It is of course inescapable that our opinions of such spinoff creations are tied to our personal tastes; that being said, a decent contrast for my own tastes is Friendship Is Witchcraft. Like HDD's animations, that series is an alternate imagining of the characters that doesn't take itself too seriously, but it appeals to an entirely different sense of humor. That also applies to FimFlamFilosophy's parodies. Both attempt to make use of more subtle twists to the original work, relying more on witty dialogue and narrative than just shock value. That is my own preference, but it's pretty clear that the .MOVs do appeal to a huge audience. It's not my intention to put down fans of those videos, but merely to point out what some of us find lacking in the series. Different strokes and all that, at the end of the day.


As for brony pyromania, it has on occasion occurred to me that some bronies still have a great big net troll in them, just waiting for a chance to get a rise out of people. And they seem to be doing a pretty good job of it with those haters, if you ask me. Honestly, when I saw the balloonicorn, I thought of MLP too, but I didn't say anything about it in the comments. If I had, though, you can bet it would've been so I could troll some folks. I'm not saying that's right, it's just that low-hanging fruit is tempting sometimes.


@Sweetie Belle vs. Rarity

As is the case for many a sibling quarrel, they were both to blame, in different ways. Sweetie never stopped to think of what consequences might arise from tampering with things that didn't belong to her, and Rarity, as the oldest, showed insufficient maturity to deal patiently with young Sweetie. The thing that bummed me at the end was that although Rarity was repentant, Sweetie remained rather concerned only with her own feelings. I think it would have been nice to see just a little more growth from her as well in that episode, but I guess I'll just have to settle for her teensy loss of innocence. And with that, have a picture of a very sad Sweetie Belle.

Sweetie Belle is still best CMC.

@ Deadparrot

I have to admit that i didn't took a closer look on the graphs and just looked at the summary for decision makers (aka the final percentage numbers ;) ). Well AJ gets beaten by Fluttershy by a margin, but i think it is quite okay as Fluttershy's character doesn't fit in every situation. She needs more time to develop and her short appearances usually center around her shyness for the comic relief.
And i think it is quite clever to not show her everytime, as you could get fed up with her shyness quickly. She rather deservers episodes which are focussing manly on her, so that she doesn't appear one dimensional and boring.

"She missed out on more of season two, but she still has the second-best appearance rate having missed only 4 of the 52 episodes so far."

About the appearance rate: If you take a closer look you can spot Derpy in almost every episode, but that doesn't make her one of the mane 6. She is a background pony even though she appears quite often.

(BTW how can i quote whithout copying all the images? This forum is not really userfriendly…)

@Pyro

There are a just a lot of people who see rainbows in their sleep. I mean not every unicorn, rainbow or pegasus needs to be associated to MLP. The candylandtheme is old and has nothing to do with it.

For example if you take a look at Freddiew Mr. Toots video:

When it was posted a year ago there was not a single MLP related comment, but now there is some sort of comment war as well only because it features a unicorn and rainbows.

I'm leaving soon, so remember:
PM me or post on my wall if anything needs my attention or its something I might enjoy. I'll see if I can do the forums but I'm not promising anything.
I'll see if I can access FIMFiction while I'm away and finish the story. Other than that,
so long!

Oh no, guys!
RandomMan has (or will soon have) a game!
He's taking over!

In all seriousness, this looks very cool.
Can't wait to see the final product!

@Mega, below
Right, like Fluttershy would be a challenge for Angel…

(I actually operate under the assumption that Angel is the only animal not susceptible to The Stare.)

Why is it that everyone gets all up in a tizzie about Scootaloo being unable to fly, but not about Sweetie being unable to use magic? I mean, people have started to theorize that there must be something seriously fucked with Scoots for her not being able to fly, but no one says shit about Sweetie. It's weird because in both cases, you have about equal evidence for an abnormality. When Dash was Scoots' age, she performed the first sonic rainboom. When Twilight was Sweetie's age, she did this:

So ya, why is Scootaloo being unable to fly notable but Sweetie's magical dysfunction not?

Also, fuck Angel Bunny. I really don't understand why the soccer moms got in such a tizzy about the Derpy scene when they're perfectly happy to allow for the depiction of the abusive spouse in bunny form. I was watching this scene today.

Now you want to think "aw that's sweet, Angel is trying to comfort Flutters." but watch closely. It lasts for just a second, but look at Angel's expression when Flutters thanks the squirrel. Look at the jealous rage that passes across his face. Angel isn't comforting Fluttershy because he genuinely wants her comforted, he's comforting her because he wants to control her, because he wants her to feel that he is the only one she can turn to in times of need. This is all just to keep her from kicking his fluffy white ass to the curb the next time he feels like slapping her around a bit.

I think we need to stage an intervention guys, need to get Fluttershy out of this unhealthy relationship.

@Fifths
To be fair, Twilight is a friggin' magical prodigy child.
I would guess that she had a bit of a leg up in terms of magical ability.
I don't recall Rarity saying that she had ever used magic before her little 'journey' and she was probably around the same age at that time.

That said, Sweetie Belle probably is similarly behind in her abilities as Scootaloo.
The difference is that Sweetie Belle has something to latch onto, namely family and home.
Scootaloo has nothing in canon: no parents, no family, no home.
That makes her inability to fly a little more tragic, I think, and thus a little more popular.
Plus, flight is just a much more visible and physical talent than magic, making it a little more… visceral, I guess.
I do love Accidental-Pyromancy Sweetie Belle, though.

As for Angel, he's really only been outright abusive in that one scene which, as I recall, surprised even the storyboarders with how far they were allowed to take it.
I typically like to think of them as almost mother and child more than spouses.
The whole 'eat your carrot' thing in Dragonshy implied as much and Angel generally seems to treat Fluttershy similarly to how a stubborn toddler would act with his mom.
It's an odd balance between love and hate.
Now, go away.
All your insults being heaped upon her favorite pet has made Fluttershy cry.

Edit: I started this page, damn it! Why do I keep forgetting to add Scootaloo?
Here she is, plus more flaming Sweetie Belle!

@Fifths:

Because Scootaloo seems to be the sadder character, and there's a lot of differences between their role-models. We assume Scoots wants to fly because RD does, and talks about it all the time. We can't make the same assumption for Sweetie, as Rarity doesn't really talk about magic all the time. It'd be different, I think, if Twilight was Sweetie's role model, and not Rarity. It'd also translate to people possibly caring about Sweetie Belle more, because, on average, a lot more people like Twilight than Rarity. So, by extension of that, somebody closely related to Twilight (sibling), that's introduced earlier than the finale of the second season (don't interpret this as hating on Studio B for not bringing Shining up earlier, because I rarely ever mention my brother [to be honest, other people usually bring him up before me]) would be a lot more cared about than someone closely related to Rarity. Especially if they were lacking in something that defined Twilight.

I also think it's part of what everybody thinks their talent is. People think Sweetie is going to be a singer, which doesn't require magic (Sapphire Shores), while people think the Scoots is going to either be a racer or a stunt devil, something that benefits greatly from flight.

So, it's a bunch of things put together, along with Scoots getting (usually) the most love of the CMC, since she seems to be a 'sadder' character.

As for the Angel thing:

First of all, Rule 1 of the Pony Thread: Don't talk about Derpy. It's like Rule 2 (DON'T talk about Derpy).

Second of all, he acts more like a toddler than an abusive spouse. When his 'mom' is in distress, he acts kind and loving, but he gets upset when she gives attention to somebody else. He also acts spoiled and demands what he wants, because he can. Fluttershy is a character that fits as a more lenient mother for Angel because she's timid, which is an open door for a toddler. However, I think it's hinted that she kept the toughness Iron Will gave her, so Angel isn't as demanding, which is somewhat proven by his appearances in Hurricane Fluttershy. Not just when he was comforting her, but also when he was cheering her on (after getting tossed away by a tornado) before she started flying.

On that topic, I encourage those who post only in the Pony Forum to post in other forums as well. You don't have to, of course, but I encourage it. KYM is a great community, and there are plenty of interesting topics on the boards.


Regarding everything being related to Equestria…

Its bullshit, pure and simple. Just because there's a unicorn, pegasus, rainbow, or violent rabbit,
doesn't mean its related.

@DeadParrot, Solaire

You know, I can't wait until they finally get around to the Scootaloo episode and reveal that she has a HUGE family. Heh, wouldn't that be funny if everyone went from interpreting her as the orphan character to the underappreciated middle child who just wants a little attention?

Makes sense actually, simultaneously explains why she is into the daredevil thing and is so desperate for attention from RD.

@Fifths
Actually, I read a fic a while back that put RD herself in that position, with similar explanations for her attitudes. I think she had something like nine or ten siblings with RD lost somewhere in the middle. I'd look it up, but I can't remember the name.

The real issue here is that we know nothing about any of the pegasus families.
Did Fluttershy really 'never leave' after falling off that cloud, implying that she kinda ran away from home, albeit accidentally?
What was RD like as a child hanging out with Gilda and getting 'kicked out' of flight school?
Where the hell does Scootaloo go at night?

Only slightly related, but funny:

@DeadParrot

3 things about that picture

1) Scootaloo is a cannibal

2) Fluttershy can't eat chicken because that's not exactly the average diet of a tree…

3) Rainbow Dash is a (chicken)egghead and her mother was in the bucket of chicken, she's crying behind that daring do book

Also, I would like to see an episode of rainbow dash's or fluttershy's families, cus really we haven't even seen or heard a hint that either of their families, like what you said. Maybe they don't even live near ponyville, maybe they live in (I hope i said this city right…) Manehattan. An episode where rainbow dash and the mane 6 go to manehattan to search for her parents or something.

Last edited Jun 28, 2012 at 02:15PM EDT

@Deadparrot

No, Fluttershy ended up coming back. The flashback to flight camp shows both her and RD with their cutie marks.

Entertaining picture though. I like how instead of maybe trying to hide her face in the book, Dash just straight up puts it up as a shield. Tactful as ever, and the best part is that Scoots doesn't even notice.

I'd like to see Octavia cover this.

Explains why she never talks.

Edit:

I saw this picture once before, but it was before I knew what Joseco looked like. This shit seems so surreal to me now. I wonder if Lauren Faust had any idea the kind of shit JJ draws. I'd really like to know her opinions on the clop community in general.

Last edited Jun 28, 2012 at 02:44PM EDT

@Scoots family:

My theory is that her parents are earth ponies or unicorns (Cake family genetics), so she lives on the ground. She probably goes home to her parents house every night, simple as that. Do we ever hear Sweetie say 'Oh, I'm going to go back to my parent's house, which as at 141 Whogivesafuck Avenue.'

Hell, it was VERY late into the first season when we first discovered Rarity was her sister (which, incidentally, gives some credibility to Shining Armor not being mentioned). So, Scoots family exists, in my opinion, we just never see them (kind of like AJ's parents, when we know they exist [or at least had to die VERY recently, if they don't exist] and like Rarity's parents, which got a very short cameo in the middle of the second season).

@Fluttershy never leaving the ground:

Somebody jacked my argument about flight camp.

Either way, I'm pretty sure she said 'never leave' as an exaggeration, if her going to Cloudesdale in Sonic Rainboom is a hint.

@Megalolzors:

Both Flutters and Rainbow's family live in Cloudesdale if anywhere, I think, considering that's where they were as fillies. I'd assume their parents would more than likely stay there.

@Chris's video

Here are some of my favorite comments over there. Tell me it all doesn't make sense to you now.


Fifths:

Also, fuck Angel Bunny. I really don’t understand why the soccer moms got in such a tizzy about the Derpy scene when they’re perfectly happy to allow for the depiction of the abusive spouse in bunny form. I was watching this scene today.

Now you want to think “aw that’s sweet, Angel is trying to comfort Flutters.” but watch closely. It lasts for just a second, but look at Angel’s expression when Flutters thanks the squirrel.

This is all just to keep her from kicking his fluffy white ass to the curb the next time he feels like slapping her around a bit.
I think we need to stage an intervention guys, need to get Fluttershy out of this unhealthy relationship.

Quoted the whole darn thing because confound it, it's true. I don't care what excuses you make, that right there is abuse, plain and simple. Know why? Because Fluttershy would never even THINK of slapping him back. That bunny's a bully and a manipulator, there is simply no denying it.


By the way…

Don’t talk about Derpy.

ಠ_ಠ

So, don't ever mention her at all? That's a bit suppressive. Who cares if someone mentions the incident in passing, it was months ago.


As for Sweetie Belle's magic: at her age, Twilight studied incredibly hard to just do a tiny amount, like turning book pages for example, before the rainboom occurred. Also, like Solaire said, Sweetie doesn't really seem that interested in magic from what I gathered, since it doesn't directly pertain to her talents and role models. And not only that, she lives in an earth pony town where magic isn't even that appreciated sometimes.

Scootaloo, on the other hand (or hoof if that suits you), seems to use her wings all the time, and still gets nowhere. As for her family, all I can say is I hope they explain it in S3, one way or the other. If she has a big family, I'd go along with that, but you have to admit the orphan idea would be way more interesting.

Here's some sad Scoots to go with my earlier sad Sweetie Belle.

But if I did join another thread,I'd promise not to post pony. If there's a brony-friendly Star Wars Thread, then direct me to it and I'd be happy to join.

She probably just thought he was James earl jones, seriously though, what is she gonna do? Refuse to sign his stuff? She probably thinks he is a little strange, which frankly, he is, but he is still a loyal fan. As for the clopping community, I'm sure she doesn't really like it. Who does?

Alright, I've got some Vinly Scratch for you!
Some, uh… some assembly required…

Looks kick-ass afterward, though!

And a little Tavi to finish:

@Dac
As Ms. Faust has said on her DeviantArt page, she's a big girl and can handle things like R34.
And if you could please avoid saying things like 'I'm sure she dislikes it. Who does?' in reference to the clopping community.
I really don't want to turn this into (another) huge R34 debate, but please don't be so quick to ostracize a whole segment of the fanbase because they like something that you don't.
Considering how annoyed you were when people criticized the .MOV series (which contains boatloads of sexually suggestive material) not two pages ago, this feels quite hypocritical.

It's weird how we're all doing that 'This page is for X' thing again. That was a (very annoying) trend back in the very first Pony General, and eventually people got so sick of it that we decided to never do it again. We used to stick to the topic of the first post much more strictly though, so if somebody said 'Octavia page', you had to post Octavia, no exceptions (next page is an Octavia page, I'm totally calling it). I like how it's working more casually now, so there's no need to stop or anything. I just find it interesting to watch this community cycle through the same trends as new members join and old members leave.

Wait a sec, why am I talking when I could be posting Scratch pics?

OH GOD, SO MUCH DETAIL.

@Dan

I can see it embedded just fine. I think it's your computer.

@Dac

Hey man, something I've been curious about. I remember the first time seeing you post, you gave a fairly ambivilent review of the show, yet I see you drop in here rather often, and you seem pretty well versed on the nuances of the show and bronydom. Just seems a little inconsistent, your stated level of affection for the show your involvement.

Last edited Jun 28, 2012 at 04:16PM EDT

@Dan (other page):

By 'don't talk about Derpy' I meant not the incident, which is what he mentioned with the soccer moms comment.

As for Angel, I'd again say he's not an abusive spouse so much as a toddler. Fluttershy put her hoof down (OMG THE EPISODE'S NAME MAKES SENSE NOW!!!!!!!) and made Angel eat the food. He wants attention, is demanding, and acts stubborn, exactly like a toddler that doesn't know any better. To be honest, I think it's unfair to say he's an abusive spouse, because he's a rabbit and he also comforts and helps Fluttershy, just like a toddler.

@Lauren and the r34:

She knows it exists, and she doesn't fucking care. She's a grown-ass woman, and I'm sure she's probably more 'experienced' than us, considering she's older than us. She's smart enough to know porn exists, and by that extension she knows porn of everything exists. I doubt she really cares, because she's too nice for that.

Also, she's married.

Ergo, she…. does…. yeah.

@Fifths:

Dac kinda likes to criticize the show, but he's more-or-less pretty nice. Vulgar, crude, not-giving-a-fuck, sure. He also probably likes other shows more than MLP, and isn't the biggest brony, and he makes that kind of obvious, but I'd say he does like the show.

He also likes examining shit, I guess.

@Vinyl Scratch page:

AMIDOINITRITE?!

@Solaire

I know, I just don't think there's any need for us to fear the Derpy controversy so much, especially when like I said, it was only mentioned in passing. Derpy is still a major part of the fandom's history, including that fateful scandal, and tip-toeing around all of that seems a bit wimpy to me.

About Angel, I'd agree that his behavior is childish, but a child can be an abuser just like a spouse can. I'm glad Fluttershy asserted herself over him in the end, but if you noticed, he still got a special meal unlike the other animals. There should be an episode where he gets stranded out in the wild or something, and in the course of many trials he learns to appreciate Fluttershy more. Of course, that may just be my sadistic desire to see a half-starved Angel in the show.

Last edited Jun 28, 2012 at 06:08PM EDT

Come on, I think we're all grown up enough now that bringing up the Derpy incident won't be any issue at all (although it would be nice if people kept that to a minimum).

As for Angel, I agree with everyone else say he's childish. He is exactly that. And he really has improved since Putting Your Hoof Down (I'd even venture to say he was rather ooc in that one), being quite protective and supportive of Fluttershy.

He's really the only pet that has a fully developed personality. Tank is awesome but nonexistent in the show, Owloysius is also nonexistent and ignored by the fandom, Gummy really does nothing at all, Winona seems like an ordinary dog, and Opalescence is really bitchy grouchy.

They really should do another episode involving all the pets. Perhaps the mane 6 could go on a vacation, and then their pets go on an epic quest to find their owners, developing and maturing along the way.

Anyways Vinyl Scratch.


@deadparrot
I say what I want and you better deal with it!
Seriously though, I'm not saying she can't handle rule34, but many bronies do tend to avoid the r34 community. Anyways, when I said "who does", I was trying to sound rude and like a douche. My bad I guess.
@fifths
Solaire summed it up pretty much. I do like the show, but I don't think it's amazing. I stay here mostly because of the community, but I still do like ponies. Also, like he said, I can be vulgar, crude, and what not, but I'm not a hater. I'm just honest.

Edit: @deadparrot
Actually, it's not really hypocritical. I wasn't saying r34 artists like JJ, Megasweet, or Cartoonlion were bad artists, they are actually great and have a lot of talent, but I dont really like the content sometimes. Same thing with MOV, if people don't like the content, that's fine, but don't dis the quality.

Hello pony peoples. I have the good fortune of living only 20 miles from the Bronycon convention center, so unless there are any unfortunate events in the next 48 hours I will be attending both days of the con. I was wondering if here on KYM we were going to set up some sort of event page like the one that was done for ROFLcon a couple months ago. I’m planning on taking a ludicrous amount of pictures, and I was hoping that there would be some way for me to share them with those unable to attend.

On that note, is anyone else here attending Bronycon? From the looks of Opspe’s KYM Map most of you seem to be across either multiple state lines or oceans, and I don’t know if any of you have the time or money to traverse such a distance for a Con about multicolored marshmallow ponies. If there are more people going we could possibly set up some more widespread coverage of the different Bronycon events that are going on.

Also, Vinyl Scratch is best bard.

@everyone

Please don't force page gets for the pure sake of starting a certain theme, it's annoying.


@Rule 34

Internet being internet, nothing you can do to stop it. Either ignore it, fap to it, or lol at it. I chose to the last option. When I see Rule 34, I just think "good/bad art" or "lol" and move one. As in total, it's pretty hard to avoid. So I'm pretty sure Faust is aware of it.


@Tristis

I know Verbose and Opspe are going to Bronycon as they were invited because of their survey. They'll be standing by a similar type of booth. But it's just a coincidence they're both from KYM. The site itself won't do anything official at Bronycon.

@Fifths
Yeah, it is kinda a weak excuse thinking about it. Only problem is does such a thread exist? Even if there's maybe one or two pony haters, I could just drop the "the Mandalorian Brony" vanity title and just stick with "PopperFett".
But still, if there's a thread on KYM for die-hard Star Wars fans, I'm all for it.

@Rule 34 discussion
I would think Faust is aware of its existence. I have serious doubts she approves of that kind of stuff, nor would she be comfortable with the fact it exists. However, seeing how you really have to look for it to find it (mostly), I'd say she doesn't really care too much. May not be exactly pleased, but sees there's no reason to frett or get angry.

I don't like R34, period. Don't care if you do. You see it, I don't. Simple as that.

Now, for JJ…I have mixed feelings about that man. Now Gamer Luna is pretty funny. Molestia had its moments initially, but he started going downhill. I can't really stand Molestia when he started having her intefere with the Shining Armor/Cadence marriage. Sure, she's a molester, but for me, married couples are off limits for ships other than their own.

@R34

Meh. The ponies are anthropomorphic enough that I've forgotten there's a difference between pony R34 and human R34. Doesn't mean I enjoy it, I just don't look at people who enjoy it as furries or like they're into some wierd shit.

No, I don't care for it, but I don't think it's as wierd as a lot of people say it is. Faust knows about it, but so far as I know she's cool with people breaking stereotypes so she probably doesn't have too much of a problem with it.

Anyways, time for some shameless self promotion! I just finished my first Flash animation project! It's pretty stupid, but I'm pleased enough with it. If anyone on the thread is good at animation I'd appreciate some criticism and the like..

Heh, I can give less a crap about it.

Even when you think you took down the photo, and you think it's gone forever, the info is still there. FBI can bring stuff back up even when it is deleted, so in fact it can never be deleted.

Here is why I have not been on much for today:


on topic with ms. DJ PON-3

now for some off topic. if we all had an element, what do you think it would be? mine would probably be the element of wisdom. or sillyness. not 100 percent sure.

@R34 discussion in regards to Faust
She already voiced her reaction towards our deviancy back in the /co/ days.

@Random
Thanks for the info. If I see anything interesting or lulzy at the con I will be sure to post it in this thread, but I wont go overboard with image dumps or anything like that.

@Affluence
That's pretty neat. I don't know a lot about animation so I can't give technical criticism, but I did notice that his hat reappeared on his head for the last couple frames. However, that would not be as visible if there was a complex background or the animation was smaller, so it's really nothing to fret about.

@Rule34.

I'm aware that it is a big part of our internet.Even if I don't like that rule very much (except for trolling purpose).I'm still able to tolerate it.

As for Ponies R34, I usually don't mind them (as long you don't force those stuff on people).what I am trying to say it's can be used as a joke (or trolling attempt) but when you overuse this rule all the time,It's just getting annoying.

What I think about clopping you may ask,I just find this to be not my interest but I won't judge you if you like to do it so.Anyway,It's your life.Not mine.



Someone say Vinyl Scratch.

Meh. The ponies are anthropomorphic enough that I've forgotten there's a difference between pony R34 and human R34. Doesn't mean I enjoy it, I just don't look at people who enjoy it as furries or like they're into some wierd shit.

No, I don't care for it, but I don't think it's as wierd as a lot of people say it is. Faust knows about it, but so far as I know she's cool with people breaking stereotypes so she probably doesn't have too much of a problem with it.

Anyways, time for some shameless self promotion! I just finished my first Flash animation project! It's pretty stupid, but I'm pleased enough with it. If anyone on the thread is good at animation I'd appreciate some criticism and the like..

Not bad, not bad at all. Art is nice, animation is smooth, concept is simple yet likable, it's pretty good overall. The only problems I see is that Braeburn's mysteriously reappears on his head in one frame after it has already been shot off, and he ducks a little too late.

Yup yup yup! I'm not sure how I didn't notice that, but it is now fixed! Also, I slowed his bringing up his head at the end, which I though was a bit fast. NOW WATCH IT AGAIN. WATCH IT HARDER!

@Ric:

Same deal with me, except with Dark Souls.

Jolly cooperation is best pony.

@I Was Phone:

Hmmm….

I simply can't seem to recall what element I would be. Give me a second.

HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM…………..

Sorry, give me another moment.

HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!

I seem to have forgotten.

@That Deviant comment from Lauren:

Damnit, Lauren, you're starving the trolls to death.

@Fifths
Yeah, it is kinda a weak excuse thinking about it. Only problem is does such a thread exist? Even if there's maybe one or two pony haters, I could just drop the "the Mandalorian Brony" vanity title and just stick with "PopperFett".
But still, if there's a thread on KYM for die-hard Star Wars fans, I'm all for it.

@Rule 34 discussion
I would think Faust is aware of its existence. I have serious doubts she approves of that kind of stuff, nor would she be comfortable with the fact it exists. However, seeing how you really have to look for it to find it (mostly), I'd say she doesn't really care too much. May not be exactly pleased, but sees there's no reason to frett or get angry.

I don't like R34, period. Don't care if you do. You see it, I don't. Simple as that.

Now, for JJ…I have mixed feelings about that man. Now Gamer Luna is pretty funny. Molestia had its moments initially, but he started going downhill. I can't really stand Molestia when he started having her intefere with the Shining Armor/Cadence marriage. Sure, she's a molester, but for me, married couples are off limits for ships other than their own.

On an unrelated note have you read "Ender's Game?" It seems up your ally.
Oh, and pony:
