Good job, you've compared criticism of Bronies to Nazism. Totally rational and well though out. Totally.

That is literally what some people are comparing it to. They are evoking Civil Rights movements in comparison. Like I said, I'm not here to burn a pile of My Little Ponies dolls in a Brony's yard, but that is a ridiculous conflation of issues that are actually important with fandom for a silly kids' show. It doesn't…
That is a totally ridiculous argument. The Civil Rights movement was profoundly important and life-altering for millions of people. This is a children's show. Should we start having Bronies' Rights rallies or Brony Pride parades as if they were a social group just as important and disadvantaged as blacks or gays?
Don't conflate gender or gay rights issues with a children's show. People who are gay don't choose to be so and their day to day existence is largely affected by how society perceives them and treats them. In some cases that is the difference between being employed or jobless or being alive or dead. That is an…
I would hold in nearly equal derision a fanaticism for Pokemon or Adventure Time. For me it's not about the gender issues everyone likes to attribute such criticism to; it's about whether or not these things that are obviously made for children really merit the devotion they receive from grown people.
There's nothing wrong with being gay and there's nothing wrong with things that are traditionally 'feminine'. Is there something wrong with grown men (and women... or even grown gay dudes) being fanatical about a child's show bred from the My Little Ponies line of merchandising? Science has yet to determine...
What if they mean you get to train on entering and clearing with a fire team to rescue a hostage, instead of being the one who is rescued?
That was kind of the joke.
There's no difference. No one said freedom was pretty. No one said it was smart. They just said you have to like it.
Touche, salesman. Touche.
Quick! Someone alert Pat Robertson!
But now pre-ban Four Loko is precious. You know someone went out and filled their garage with it while they could, but that supply won't last forever, and there are many nights ahead in which the urge to take both stimulants and depressants in the same convenient serving will be too much to suffer without Four Loko's…
But I used my small words this time :(
You would think so. Sure, it's acidic, but the sugar also makes it very sticky.
Honestly, what is the point of making a comment like that? You sound like you're a sheltered, self-centered only child in the throes of puberty when you say shit like that. If you don't like an author, fine. Nothing wrong with that. You could express it in a way that is more convincing instead of a way that reveals…
His swagger is limp.
As a side comment, anyone who DOES want to pay a skeevy guy to have sex with them can call me. If for no other reason than to add that to my life experience.
Right, because DAII and the Mass Effect series told completely unique and original stories with protagonists that weren't simply ripped out of Joseph Campbell's work. Some people want to have more control over their character than, 'This time I'm going to be an asshole instead of being polite. Even though the result…
A thirty-foot tall, gold and jewel encrusted Buddha isn't fun or interesting enough? How about five of them? Granted, you may have to go a long way to see that one depending on where you live, but I thought it was pretty awesome.
Good form. Now I don't feel so unsatisfied.
