In case you missed greywolfe359's epic, here's the nice place it was posted: http://caucus99percent.com/content/its-over-gandalf-we-need-unite-behind.... I published this necessarily abstruse tribute last night at Daily Kos at the group blogs of all the unusual suspects. This is my first try at the essay technology here, so pardon my progressivity. No, I do not have serious personal issues.

It was entitled:

Introducing, the ultimate Bronie safe space--My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic

Here's the tastefully understated content:

A totalitarian-free place where you can put your guard down (just trust me). Metaphors so abstruse as to be meaningless yet providing potentially revolutionary levels of comfort.

Who are we?

The show received praise from television critics and parental groups. It also found an unlikely audience in a large group of adult Internet users in late 2010 and early 2011. These fans, mostly male, were drawn to the show's characters, stories, animation style, and influence of the show's propagation as an Internet meme. The fandom adopted the name brony (plural bronies), a portmanteau of "bro" and "pony". Though initially considered to propagate the humorous and ironic concept of people enjoying a show for young girls, the fandom has shown deeper appreciation for the show far beyond this concept, and is considered part of a New Sincerity trend. Its technology-savvy members have created numerous works in writing, music, art, and video based on the show, have established websites and fan conventions for the show, and have participated in charitable events around the show and those that create it.

This week, let’s have a deep cleansing cry.

See you next week, come rain or shine, for months to come.

In new sincerity, and epic levels of solidarity,

Stereotypical Brony
