I was completely taken by surprise when I read about this today, in a sewing group. 🙂

My first instinct was WHAT? can you be serious? surely this is a joke? but apparently, it is serious, not a joke.......

then I laughed so much (I am home alone) that I had tears rolling down my face.

What do you think? anyone here a Brony?

az you seem really keen to get into this, just relax and take it one step at a time, learning as you go along.

hahaha, I am just ...trying to understand the motivation!

I am finding it difficult to take seriously but then I feel guilty about laughing.

My nephew was a brony for many years... I did worry a lot at what it meant... but he has grown out of it and is now onto something else... it is just another way for a person to be seen as different I guess, sort of shock and awe... like when you use to see a person with tattoos or a Mohawk or facial piercings.

do years of being an unwilling brony count ? i'd be a senior brony i guess.. the day she decided her friends little sister (who'd had an eye op) was being given all the ponies and castles etc i felt relieved. you know the music that plays when there's danger ? i had to sort of hum it during games ..

I think Az is struggling with the subject matter of this cult following.

This might have some answers:

Thanks. I tried that. What is the time limit on the 'timing out"? It seems to be happening too frequently and when I try to sign in, I get error messages saying I am not authorised to use this forum. Too frustrating.
