Haven't read through the thread yet, and won't have time to tonight.  I just have one thing to say.

You've crossed the rainbow bridge.  Welcome to Valhalla.

Maybe people should love for the sake of loving, and not with all of these optimization conditions.

"I'm not old enough to remember the supposed "Golden Age" of cartoons in the 1980s; I grew up in the early 90's, which I will defend to the death was better"

And having seen 80s cartoons I agree. 90s were better.

Though right now we are in the "Boring action slump" with shows aimed for children that are action, action, and more action...

People complained that 90s Spiderman had poor action. Well let me tell you that it wasn't action that got us to watch it (afterall that show GOT a sequel... that sucked so bad it was taken down FAST).

The Batman was actually odd. It started off in "Boring Action Slump" mode where it even rewritten characters to make them more boring (Dang it WHY!?! Mr. Freeze is one of the more interesting Batman villains)... Then it actually got better later. Not 90s Batman good.... but good enough.

Unfortunately those are the people running the show... Since Avengers: Earth's mightiest heros is sort of getting boring IMO. It was sort of indicative that the show was secretly bad when they replaced the Nazi's with "Hydra", then it was more indicative when Captain America was painfully cut harmlessly...

So the Pony awsome just sort of represents the best that kiddy action can get. Comedy + Action.

Because they took the My Little Pony theme and made it slightly less humiliating?

I generally try to skip the intro music though... If anyone else is watching. If not, grab an improvmike!

Yeah, he's a banned spammer. Normally we'd delete this thread too, but people were having too much fun with it by the time we got here.

I thought your "ironic" hobbies were suppose to be open about.  You gotta admit it or that's just shameful.

I did.

Hence my new nickname at work.

So I think I'll refrain from singing the song.

It's okay Tack, you are stronger than me.  I have to wear headphones.
Also, total Stocking hair on that first pony.  :P

Is it bad I was surprised not seeing subtitles?

It ain't no secret for me.

And everyone who knows either couldn't care less, or is a pony themselves.

So next episode looks to be centered on Rarity, the main character with the least amount of screentime (She only appeared for an entire two and a third seconds in the last two episodes!)

Oh dear God, I'll never be able to stop thinking that if I watch this show.

I watched it.

I don't get what's so great about it, so i'm gonna assume it's some pony cult.
