Answer honestly? |
| Psychopomf #947418 5 months ago |
Just answer them as honestly as you can and not going into detail unless they ask for it.
Its what I did and I even managed to convert three of my friends. |
| Anonymous #947419 5 months ago |
Exactly as I do (lives in tiny town in the middle of nowhere)
Man up and wear a brony shirt to school like a bawss. Who gives a rat's arse what other people think of you |
| Anonymous #947420 5 months ago |
politely answer to the best of your abilities. perhaps you'll convert yourself some new friends. just don't be pushy. |
| PhilSrobeighn #947432 5 months ago |
Applejack would tell you to answer honestly. |
| Theopticals #947438 5 months ago |
Simple!
Take your favorite shoe and neatly place it on top of your head. Wrap neckties around all of your appendages, and dance in a jig wherever you walk. Next, begin to live your new life as the village idiot. Now, your love for My Little Pony will be attributed to the fact that you are actually insane. Therefore, you will not be seen as any less manly for your addiction to ponies. |

Define awkward, seeing as you've already been outed. |
| Finvara #947441 5 months ago |
Telling the truth is important, but MORE important is to not worry about how you are perceived, and not go looking for people to try to offend you over it. All will be well. |

If someone bites you
BITE THEM THE FUCK BACK! |

Seconding what others have said:
Be honest. Don't go into it with a "you against the world" mentality though, if you can help it. That mentality may leave you alienated. But if you're logical and polite about it, then some people should understand. Those who choose not to understand are probably people with whom you would not want to associate, but they may come to understand you in the future. And mostly, keep your hopes up. |

i second what DoctorDreidal said |
| Fridge_Logic #947463 5 months ago |
Convert them. |
| Anonymous #947466 5 months ago |
Most of what other people say would be good advice.
However, if you have no choice but to associate yourself with intolerant people, give them a reason to avoid you. All humans have SOME extent of moral value, and if pushed hard enough, will not bother you any longer. Be kind to those around you and follow the elements of harmony. However, if one intrudes to far, strike them(Hopefully not literally) with righteous anger. |

I would personally just be honest I mean I don't know any other MLP fans in the area and a few people have asked me about it...
Also define awkward question? |
| Anonymous #947469 5 months ago |
punch them in da face and tell them you're going to eat THEIR LIMBS! |
| MaroonBunyip #947476 5 months ago |
Ok, mate, I live in a mining town in outback Aus, so I know what you're going though.
Just do with what Verbose said and it'll all be good. You've been outed, no going back now. Also, very important, don't bring it up unless someone else does first. |

@CottonTales
I had a situation that may be defined awkward, in fact, for the same topic. A bothersome person one day decided to confront me and ask me loads of "Ponies or _____?" questions; the blank was filled with life-related things such as money, friends, family, home, possessions, other nouns.... I am the same Anon as 947466, so at one point that bigot pushed to far, so I lashed out on him. He hasn't been confronting me about ponies so far... but he is still bothersome. |
| Zancrow #947641 5 months ago |
Who cares? Seriously, you can watch what you want.
Just be yourself. Seriously, do people still act like watching this show is a sin? |
| MaroonBunyip #947650 5 months ago |
^
yes, yes people do. In the city and suburbs most people are fine cause they are exposed to all kinds of people, ideas and cultures. Small towns and the country are... very limited. |
| Zancrow #947683 5 months ago |

Are you hunted by an angry mob with pitchforks and torches if you say you watch My little Pony? |
| CasualWisdom #947746 5 months ago |
Take out as many as you can, then make your break for the Mexican border. Look for a man with one leg named Juan. He'll get you over. If he only has one arm and is named Juan, ignore him. He's a dick. |
| Anonymous #947761 5 months ago |
You like a tv show. Its not a big deal unless you make it a big deal.
Just dont mention stuff like spending hours on pony websites or being sexual attracted to ponies. |
| Anonymous #947789 5 months ago |
My friends teased me for watching MLP and I'm a girl. :| I took it in stride. I poked fun at them for liking some embarrassing things. Just be cool about it. |
| TheAntiCat #947937 5 months ago |
I'm an asshole and would just tell everyone to mind their own fucking business.
But the only advice of mine you should take, is to not take my advice. ![]() |

if your vanity can't handle it, then you need a few insults until it can. |

Stiff upper lip. Truth is, it's a good show with a good story, with characters that hit a wider demographic than intended. Just remember the context of their argument to see how invalid it is.
American football fans base their lives around a game they will never play again, and haven't played since they were in High School, and would willingly pay (sometimes obscene amounts of) money to see a bunch of sweaty men tackle one another. Celebu-tard Stalkers are no better. Going insane over award shows, paparazzi photos, and twenty minute weddings is no different than checking a forum post. Just remember it, but don't point out that their idea of what's interesting is just as, if not more, absurd than yours. Tolerate like troll bait. |

Write an apology letter and kill yourself.
It's the only way to restore your honor. Performing sudoku would be the suggested method to do it. |
| Anonymous #948658 5 months ago |
@948614: i know those 9x9 squares can be a killer, but that's just cruel and unusual. Also, can we not mention suicide around someone who may or may not have lost their entire social support structure? |
| Dashy #948750 5 months ago |
^^ ... I could point out all of things wrong with that, but I'm just going to chalk it up to you being a troll/idiot (circle one) |
| FIMDiscord #948917 5 months ago |
aye convert others, that's what I did |
