I like turtles.
Remember when this thread was about things?
Such as others actually joining in and discussing about bronies? I remember that, especially with how people acted towards ponified guns.Remember when this thread was about things?
When others aside from me and Kamen Rider Black discussed the spergery of bronies or things they done like ponifying guns which did not abide by the Dude iirc or homerbeoulve not liking how bronies made their own edit of Final Fantasy VI. Perhaps the ride might of come to an end and I should stay out so as to not make it become some two person conversation.Remember when it wasn't a two person conversation?
Indeed that monster! Why must Fluttershy be wearing something that goes against the fetish of a Deviant Art user who has a thing for tapping shoes?http://comments.deviantart.com/1/419254674/3465281453
Back to MichaelDragon800. How dare Fluttershy wears flip flops and not tapping shoes. You monster!
That would be the case though what about in comparison to the furry community? Also, a lone sperg is easier to follow since it is more focused on them until they actually decide to try and hide their behavior well enough to not bring much content.It's actually funny how little content the brony community creates compared to a grade-A lolcow. I guess with a lone sperg, they're easier to follow. Plus, dumbass behavior is more likely to be hidden because content comes from many sources.
Plus, when there's a community, there's a chance that the more sane individuals will keep the more insane ones under control(unless it turns into a full-on circlejerk). That's not the case with grade-A lolcows.It's actually funny how little content the brony community creates compared to a grade-A lolcow. I guess with a lone sperg, they're easier to follow.

Indeed it is. Now people, mock me for your enjoyment. The dabes CatParty says it. My kind as a whole is worthy of mockery. Throw the spaghetti at me!as a whole the mlp fandom is pretty worthy of mocking
I see the words "You don't get your money back if..." and my online scam detector goes crazy.Any thoughts people on this thing?
If I recall correctly, Indiegogo doesn't give back your money if a project fails to receive the funding it needs. If that is true, then the online scam detector should go off.I see the words "You don't get your money back if..." and my online scam detector goes crazy.
I'm pretty sure Michael's medical bills were paid off a few months back from the donations sent in when this whole thing was first mentioned. Really, this could be nothing more than an attempt to sell fan-made MLP stuff. Even if it was going to Michael, why make a statue? One of the anonymous comments in the horse-news webpage I linked sums it up. To paraphrase the anonymous commentor: "Hospital bills are one thing but the statue is something."Michael, an 11-year-old boy from North Carolina, attempted to take his life after enduring ruthlessly bullying from other children as a result of his love of two things--the cartoon My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic™ (MLP:FIM) and playing the violin.
His mother and two brothers found him before the worse could happen, but not before he suffered massive brain trauma. To date, he requires constant care.
Come to think of it, (since I missed the whole thing) I wonder what's the chances of the kid being bullied for just playing the violin and only keeping the love of MLP to himself.
And I wonder what's the entire point of this campaign:
1. Money for constant care for Michael due to a brain tumour, or:
2. Attempt to sell fanmade MLP franchise?
In regards to the violin, I believe they mentioned that when he committed suicide. Really, it wouldn't matter to bullies since either one makes him a target in their eyes. They would call him gay for doing either one. The tumor on the other hand, I don't think I remember that. I do remember they hooked him up to a machine after he failed to commit suicide. Really though, if the tumor is real then kid should get help in having it treated.Speaking of this foundation, since I posted before that I missed the whole thing (just the basics but not the whole), the page said that he was also bullied for playing the violin. I wonder if the foundation is taking advantage of the bronies to donate to this campaign even though the child is actually bullied because just of the violin (while of the MLP is either made-up bullcrap or just casual and keeping it to himself)
Still, if the brain tumour is true though, I still feel sorry for the child though.
A few months back, after the initial reports I think they mentioned Michael playing instruments though I could be most likely be wrong. As for taking it to schools, it would distract children. Even then, why put this on Indiegogo? As I said before, if I recall correctly Indiegogo doesn't let you get a refund if a project fails to meet the deadline for its full funding. At least with Kickstarter, that could help it look less of a scam if they are being genuine with this and are showing that this isn't a scam.Didn't hear about a tumor or being bullied over the violin (which is a shame, since it's one of the most awesome instruments in the world) during the initial reports. It was all "he liked MLP and was bullied for it." Considering the parents described Michael as "the kind of kid who would dance everywhere," I get the feeling he was bullied for being different in a lot of respects and not just for liking MLP. I do remember there being a brony uncle who encouraged Michael's love of the show, so I'm wondering if the uncle was the one who sent the family into the arms of the fandom.
As for the statue itself, they want to take it to schools and talk about bullying. I think it's presence would ultimately distract kids listening and ultimately hinder the parents goals.
Just gonna say this: this deviant art user sounds like an anti-SJW filled with sperg. Plus Chris was the original brony so it shouldn't be surprising if one were to compare these certain bronies to Chris (which in this case for this brony is her homophobia. Such sperg and anger she displays). Also, in before spergy anti-bronies spamming this as "all bronies" along with spergy bronies being spergs in response. I do wonder though, is this person serious? As much as I could doubt, perhaps this person is serious.This got passed around on Tumblr, she's bitching and screaming like Chris that it be taken off and people should stop bothering her over it.![]()

...I've been comparing the actions of certain bronies to Chris a lot lately.
