    I think an adult person who does not watch my little pony is better than an adult who does, all other things equal

    yes

    Pretty much where I'm at, yeah.

    While idly musing, I've been wondering how many My Little Pony fans have ever had a 70-hour work week.

    And sure, I know, there are plenty of other frivolous things that I could apply that exact same line of musing to. Hell, I could apply it to "people who post on internet forums." But that's where my musing is currently going.

    Pooro I am super disappointed in you and your judgmental attitude

    you, of all people, should not be judging others

    when I kidnap nads and make him my gaybride, you will not be invited :(

    Why "of all people"

    What even

    What

    aren't you one of the gays?

    or am I thinking of Cog

    Cog's definitely pretty down with the dudes, but I'm pretty notoriously straight.

    Still make out with Nads from time to time, though

    Stilts, you silly goose, I pointed out IN MY EXACT POST that I was making a strawman argument. That whole post was a joke.

    I really couldn't have made it any clearer, like, at all.

    Really, you picked the absolute worst post, out of a whole CHAIN of my untamed dickery, to use as your example of why people should ignore me.

    how could I hate ponies?


    and naw dude, while I do enjoy steaks and lifting weights and huge dinners and shooting the shit out of some guns and yeah once in a while I'll do some muddin' and i looooooove me some alcohol

    I also enjoy some ponies, cuddling, romantic walks on beaches, playing with puppies, the gentle play of light on a rose petal, and the subtle sunset in April

    I'm not buying any pony toys anytime soon (although that might be partly to do with money? who can say what might be?)

    but yeah, I like things that I like and I'm not gonna stop just because people don't like it or because I want to fit any sort of set rules of what I should like

    I thought the "My argument: strawman image" meant that the fake quote you were using as an analogy for the My Little Pony defense was a strawman.

    I didn't think you were saying the argument you've been carrying on for 8 pages or so was a joke.

    Mostly because continuing an argument that you actually think is a joke seems like a really silly thing to do.

    Pooro would you kindly shut the fuck up? You are 100% in the wrong here.

    You're being an asshole to people because they like a show that is mainly aimed at children. Mainly, sure, but not entirely. The creators of the show have said many, many times that while the main demographic is children, they've made a concentrated effort to make it as appealing as possible to people of any age.

    By most accounts the show is clever, funny, well-animated and quite good in general.

    You're acting like you're an arbiter of what people can and can't watch. If people watch this and this and this they should be looked down upon, oh yes! Boo on them for liking this show! What immature simpletons they are.

    You constantly go on and try to convince people that "manchild" is not a derogatory term and that what how do people see this as me insulting them when I use it? and then you go and insult them using other terms forthe exact same thing you called them manchildren for. You are being a dishonest prick here, Pooro. The term "manchild" is derogatory and your ridiculous claims to the contrary are offensive in how shallow and uninspired they are. You might as well beat someone with a hammer and then tell them that you didn't mean to hurt them, what are you talking about hammers aren'fir hitting people they're for hitting nails I don't see how you could believe I wanted to hurt you by repeatedly hitting you with this hmmer which is obviously only meant for nails what the hell, idiot.

    What the fuck is your problem? Does the fact that people outside of the (again) main demographic of MLP like the show hurt or threaten or affect you in any way? If you say yes you are a god damned liar.

    You think it's creepy? You think it's creepy for grown men to talk about how they like a show which (again) by most accounts is clever, funny and well-written and which the creators themselves have said was supposed to appeal to demographics other than the main one? You think it's creepy that people like a show when they're in a smaller demographic the show nonethelss explicitly appeals to despite the fact that it is not the main demographic?

    That's stupid and childish and irrational. If anything, Pooro, your immature, unwarranted gut response to people somehow liking a show the creators meant for them to like proves that you are more of a manchild than most of the show's fans.

    Your arguments hold no water whatsoever and there is no logic to them at all.

    You (or someone else) brought up the Teletubbies. The Teletubbies is aimed at a completely different demographic, it is a completely different show and it was never intended to appeal to any demographic outside of the main one. So this comparison is bullshit.

    I normally like you a lot, Pooro, but you're being an irrational, condescending, immature asshole about this whole affair.
