I didn't get to run into Deo as I was running the Special Registration Booth all weekend. =( But, I did get to sing and dance for the people outside by The World's Manliest Truck. The videos of the staff singing are everywhere on youtube, I'm the one in the black fedora.

Only problem with that is that everyone had a camera.

I was the guy with the microphone, Kadota was the one up front with one of our Masters of Ceremonies, Rocket to Insanity.

WE KNOW WHAT YOU ALL LOOK LIKE NOW.

So you ended up going for Lauren's signature this time? Will maybe get the others' other times?

What exactly did John have to say about bronydom beyond the "I am so shocked" factor?

I missed the first half of the John panel, but he basically thinks bronies are a new amazing fandom because they are nice and care.

At the end he took off his jacket and revealed he was wearing a brony shirt. I got Lauren's signature because I don't know if she'll be back, and I wanted to meet her the most. Cathy, Lee, and Peter said they'll be back, and Tara and John made it sound like they will be back.

Dusty needs to be on our security detail next year or something. Dude was just so awesome and helpful.

I was on a Skype call with dispatchrabbi, coyote, and hobbes (the top security people in case anyone was wondering) last night, they were sharing some pretty awesome stories and discussed how they're working to get Dusty on the staff. He said he wants to, mostly so he can get that cool ass shirt.

Did you know they nicknamed John de Lancie "Honey Badger" to use in code because Honey Badger doesn't care and does what it wants

I know you've all probably heard about it since you're all better bronies than I am, but the new .MOV is out (PARTY.MOV) and it's... actually kinda funny.

I'm heavily looking forward to SWAG.MOV, since PARTY.MOV is a vast improvement over MAGIC.MOV, and for a while was thinking Hotdiggetydemon was going downhill.

If SWAG.MOV is anything more than Spike poking Rainbow Dash's corpse for 5 minutes, I'll be incredibly disappointed.

Perhaps if you tried watching an episode you would understand.

It's been said a million times over; it was written and animated by the writers of many 90's cartoons and has very good voice acting and music. It's not what you'd expect in terms of the name and how it's been portrayed over the past 20 years, but a reboot built from scratch that essentially encompasses all that used to be good about cartoons during the 90's era and puts it together mixed with characters that aren't bland and obnoxiously stupid, and actually likable and relatable.

But it doesn't matter, we'll always get shit like this...

Sorry, but in my opinion, people should take responsibility for what they say.

That is all.

The characters are complex and devloped, each with their own unique and interesting personality. THe humor is clever, and ranges from in your face wackiness, to subtle personality quirks, to sly references to culture. The action can actually be quite intense at times, and while it is certainly an emotional show, the sad and happy moments are not only really well written, but driven by truly likeable characters. That's not even getting into the epic music, first rate voice acting, intelligent script writing, and excellent artwork an animation

One of the biggest reasons this show draws male viewers is that the female main characters aren't "girly" in the tradition of girl shows, but are in fact, more badass then a lot of Male main characters.

Not to mention there ARE positive Male characters in this show (I.E, Big Macintosh, Fancy Pants, Soarin', Braeburn, Spike, etc)

Really, it's not hard to understand the show's popularity if you just remove the "but itz a lil gurlz show!" mentality way too many people have and actually watch a few episodes. Granted, a lot of kids shows nowadays ARE crap, but this isn't one of them

>Desktop Ponies

I've had them for the longest time and I love them, but that is just pure win.

...GAWD I can't wait until I get my new computer with multiple monitors... unfortunately saving up for it is a bitch.
