I was actually talking to SilentKiller, who agrees with what is said in the screenshot. And I agree with you when you say that lots of "bronies" are merely attention-whoring. My point was that most if not all of the people who ask that question don't give a shit about the answer, and that there ARE logical reasons why people like that show.

because the logic is hilarious

I keep asking why people like MLP and the answer I keep getting from people who watch the show is "It's a good show". So why DO people watch it? Tell me, people who presumably don't watch it.

or, tl;dr, "I ask a question and get the same answer every time. Why?"

Here's an article by Max Gilardi (The guy who made APPLE.MOV and others)

This is the best article I have read regarding the MLP Phenomenon and as to why Bronies like MLP:FiM.

The new Pony McDo Happy Meals aren't in the Philippines yet.

Which also sucks since Applejack, Rarity, Fluttershy and Celestia weren't available in the first batch.
Cuddlebun
Celestia's not one of the toys at all, though. It's Applejack, Lily Blossom, Cheerilee, Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, Twilight Sparkle, and Rarity.

Unless the Philippines gets different toys?
awp
I think Pinkie's in there too

Some kid at my school goes and gets a Mcdonalds toy like every day and he keeps giving me all the Raritys because he doesn't like them or something. Apparently they jacked the price of Mcdonalds toys from $0.50 to $0.90 a bit after these toys came out. Smart move, Mcdonalds.

...he knows you can choose which toys you get right? And if they don't have the toys you want/need you don't have to get them? I get ponyfags up in McDonalds all the time asking which toys we have. I told one fat girl we had Applejack and she almost had an orgasm in my drivethru. Also you can trade toys if the person you talk to is nice.

???

They're like $1.30 here or something. And that's still really cheap compared to the $5 toys they have at Toys R Us

Oh, I was referring to the first batch of McDo toys.


The Philippines only got half of these, which was available during September 2011.
We have yet to receive the new set, the one where they replaced Celestia with Lily Blossom.

He does and he always asks what they have. I'm not sure why he keeps buying them.

I finished my MLP set today :D (Glad she works at mcdonalds)


Also...you know you like MLP when you are talking about it with a customer in drive through and forget to hand them their fries as they drive off... >.>

he has a brocrush on you

also I see all the ponies with triplet graphics for cutie marks (AJ, Fluttershy, Cheerilee, Pinkie Pie, Rarity) are wrong, not just Fluttershy
ztrot
yeah a bit of a let down but better than nothing :P

Was playing the puZZles on the MLP: FIM site and a video popped up.

So I have this OC Pony that I made but I'm having trouble coming up with a Cutie Mark and Name. Could I enlist the SERIOUS help from you guys?

I can draw him/her too if you want :V
Do you have a concept or sketch of what he/she looks like?

I, and apparently others, worry that this show is getting a bit too realistic for what it is. Except not really, I'm not investing anything but a tiny bit of time in the whole thing.

And no, Apex.

The stories of the show are becoming more for adults, while still remaining appropriate for children.

Derpy's cameo appearances in the rest of Season 2 still remains. The only "damage" she ever received is the vocal and eye change in the iTunes Episode. Her stand on Season 3 is still unknown
NotShinta
Even if there was any threat ever to Ms. Doo, she has been in - correct me if I'm wrong - almost every episode since The Last Roundup. And there is much rejoicing every single week, if YouTube comments are anything to go by.

I imagined an awkward pause of dialogue as RD walked past Ditzy in the latest episode, however. It was probably nothing.

I kinda noticed it too, but word of staff said that the only ever mention of "Derpy" and Derpy actually speaking is only in The Last Roundup.

The only episodes that Derpy didn't appear in Season 2 are:

Episode 6 (Cutie Pox), Episode 12 (Family Appreciation Day), Episode 13 (Baby Cakes, however, there was a baby with Derpy's colors), Episode 20 (It's About Time) and Episode 22 (Dragon Quest)
awp
They didn't actually retcon Derpy, did they? RD doesn't say her name in the edited Last Roundup (at least, the version I saw), but they didn't call her Ditzy Doo, either

iTunes:


Differences:
>Rainbow Dash doesn't call her Derpy
>Derpy has a more feminine voice
>Derpy's eyes are fixed
awp
NOPE. I was drunk when I saw the edited clip and I don't remember the voice or the corrected eyes, and I'm gonna keep it that way.

In all honesty I'm a bit okay with changing the voice, but they went from one extreme to the other, and should have shot for something in between
Quaraezha
When Tabatha (Rarity's VA) voiced Derpy in the Original, she thought Derpy was a BOY, so that explains the boyish voice.
