Some days it's perfectly clear why I don't associate with nerds anymore.

 

[lunarworks]

What is this supposed to mean? That only gamers are nerds?

Nope, just that there's an order of magnitude difference between the two.

 

[CorvoSol]

I think a more apt comparison would be if the shirt had Intellivision Mario on it.

I think I would unironically wear this shirt everywhere.

 

[RionaaM]

Except that Ninja Turtles were cool. My Little Pony? These were the kids that played with Barbies. I think Buffalo Bill was a Brony actually.

Hey, I find that comment offensive, I don't like MLP!

Oh shit... don't ask.

 

[BigJonsson]

I can't tell who is being sarcastic in this thread anymore.....

 

[Dreams-Visions]

I wear the ponyGAF shirt when at video game clubs at my local college.

I am the ubernerd.

Ew.

[Watch Da Birdie]

in case anyone else is curious here's a link to the Coloring book review that was talked about a little earlier in the thread....I watched the whole thing, it's a bit odd.

There's another one just like this...by a different person...where the guy's in a car, and he basically bashes it for being full of inaccuracies and "easy puzzles".

Wal-Mart just shot themselves in the foot.

I don’t know how much the rest of you know about Brony culture (FlutterShy>>Shit>>>>>>Twilight Sparkle, fuck the official polls, that whore is a ripoff of Stocking from PSG), but honor and shame are huge parts of it. It’s not like it is in the rest of America where you can become successful by throwing money at inexperienced marketing people and have something the masses will eat up! If you screw A Brony over, you bring shame to yourself, and the only way to get rid of that shame is Fixing your error and putting the Season 1 MLP discs on Sale.

What this means is the Brony Subculture, after hearing about this, is not going to want to purchase these Wal-mart Shirts nor will they purchase any of Wal-Mart's unnecessary items (They still gotta eat though, and with price matching, Rollbacks, and Everyday Low Prices, There's no better way to Save Money and Live Better than Wal-Mart!). This is HUGE. You can laugh all you want, but Wal-Mart has alienated an entire market with this move.

Wal-mart, publically apologize, put season 1 on sale, and give FlutterShy her own Graphic Tee or you can kiss your cartoon shirt business goodbye.

thread over.

Does anybody on GAF who watch this show wear the shirts in real life?

i do.

no one has ever said anything to me though. if Gaf was real life i feel like i woulda been jumped and stabbed to death by now.

people say they dont understand bronies but i dont understand them, i dont understand the mindset of people who get so angry and want to control what others like and do. just another aspect of humans i dont care for.

Gentlemen! Behold!

 

[la flama blanca]

Bronies are the worst. Lord.

 

[Dabanton]

The 80's MLP's look better anyway.

 

[G-Fex]

This is worse than something off Reddit.


Anyway does someone have that gif where the cartoons saying Holy shit look at this it's fucking Nothing!

I love that one.

[G-Fex]

ahh that is great thanks!

 

[Dyno]

The stupidest part about that shirt is they come in Medium.

 

[Necrovex]

Let me show you this.

You could have told me that was a homestuck character, and I would have believed you.

 

[Choppasmith]

I think a more apt comparison would be if the shirt had Intellivision Mario on it.

Wow. I had never seen that before.

But I'd say it's more like seeing a Mega Man shirt like this:

But with the Captain N versions:

Or something with maybe the Infamous American boxart. Yeah it's "retro" but it's something that's really not liked very much by fans.

I always wonder why people post those "I don't give a fuck GIF"s. I mean, if you don't give, why post?

Gotta keep dat GAF street cred.

 

[PetriP-TNT]

This combined with my aspergers makes me truly mad at world AND Walmart. WHY COULDN'T THEY DO A SINGLE IMPORTANT THING RIGHT

 

[Regulus Tera]

Lauren Faust loved My Little Pony G1, and made G4 partly as an homage to it. The front-center pony is Firefly, Lauren's all-time favorite pony.

True bronies aren't allowed to hate G1. They're allowed to be uninterested, but they're not allowed to be haters.

Nah, it's a pretty dumb cartoon.

 

[OriginofHysteria]

Bronies are legit upset about this? Then don't buy the damn shirt.

you think joking about aspergers is funny?

 

[DrForester]

No, they're not. They were amused then moved on.

 

[Rickenslacker]

Bronies are horrible

Yeah? Well I had sex with your waifu!
