I'm fucking bored and I'm going to be listening to one of these podcasts while I do shit, so let's have another edition of LETS LISTEN WITH LEILEI faggotry

BRONYVILLE EPISODE 10 - "FRIENDSHIP NEEDS TO MAN UP!"

00:00 - As soon as I hit that fucking play button I have a near gag-reflex that causes me to audibly groan whenever that fucking theme song starts playing. I honestly imagine the many scenarios where some 25-year-old is like "CHECK OUT MY AWESOME FAN CREATION" and that theme song starts to play, immediately vaporizing any manhood that person may have had left.

00:30 - This guy's voice is surprisingly good for a podcast, even despite the fact that...well yeah.

00:55 - Nevermind. He starts to talk to his partner like a child because OH EM GEE IT'S HIS BIRTHDAY. DAWWWWWWWWW.

01:15 - "Sandy", the aforementioned birthday boy (no pony pun? surprising!) admits to being probably one of the older pony fans. The other guy, "Applecider", says, no, he's older. He sounds about 30.

01:40 - They describe getting old, but as if they were ponies. (Mane starts to get droopy, etc.)

02:05 - They're proud of 'cracking double digits' by hitting episode 10. It is indeed admirable how much effort it takes to sperg about your favorite topic for 13 hours.

02:25 - They brag about how many fan e-mails they get. Applecider says "thats awwwwesooome" in an incredibly gay voice.

03:30 - ...what the hell is "Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me"? Apparently Clinton was on it and being asked questions about MLP.

04:20 - Applecider does an okay Clinton impersonation. Good thing he uses to say things like, "Yup, I'm Bill Clinton. I was...the president."

05:00 - Golly, Bill Clinton sure is so dumb, he don't even know what 'paste' is! Tee hee!

05:15 - The questions being asked are multiple choice, and have gag answers aside from the correct one. One of the gag answers 'created' a fake villain, who Sandy comments, 'I cannot wait to see the fanfiction for'.

05:40 - Bill Clinton is now officially a brony for answering three multiple choice questions with obvious answers. And so is hulk hogan and keanu reeves apparently.

06:15 - They start talking about knowyourmeme. I swear, I know he just doesn't know how to pronounce meme, but it just sounds like he's saying 'mane'.

06:45 - Anyway, apparently knowyourmeme keeps track of meme shit and blah blah apparently Ponies beat Forever Alone and are now "the biggest thing on the internet".

07:00 - Applecider admits that he was one of the people who put that page on auto-refresh in order to get its views up and make it #1. The logic behind this whole thing baffles my fucking mind.

07:10 - Sandy tries to join in the celebration by saying "Yeah, now we...get to be...number one..." and generally just sounding like he has no idea why this matters.

09:00 - They're talking about job offerings...? Something to do with the something that also includes the company who does MLP stuff? I dunno.

09:30 - They insist that people do this instead of playing Minecraft or Team Fortress 2. I just find it amusing that Applecider tried to think of as many popular games as he could and the only things that came to mind were 'Minecraft' and 'Terraria'. And then he blanks.

10:00 - They spend about 30 seconds pretending they're about to go play Team Fortress 2. Applecider says "I AM FULLY CHAHGED". Some woman in the background laughs at this.

10:20 - OH BOY THEY'RE TALKING ABOUT THE FIGHTING GAME NOW

10:40 - They sperg about how the ponies fighting makes no sense because blaghabluhbloobluug

10:50 - He describes the happy-go-lucky cowboy tune that was shown in the demo as, get ready for it, "fighting-gamey".

12:25 - They were promoting some other site which I assume is another pony site. I didn't pay attention to the name, I just heard Applecider giving a shoutout to the website host by saying "THANKS SETH, WE LOVE YOU, KITHEEESSSS" (He yells out "kisses" in baby-talk) and good lord now I feel the need to shower.

13:20 - Applecider doesn't like discussing 'shipping'. It makes him "feel icky".

13:40 - They basically discuss all the fucked up things people ask them about, noting shipping and vore. There's really a point where you have to realize you are in the most fucked up fandom ever and need to abandon-fucking-ship, at this is that point.

14:30 - Applecider starts to read fanmail. He starts the first one off with 'THIS ONE IS FWOM MIKE' in his child voice again. It's amazing how competent and mature this guy can sound, but he keeps randomly pulling out this voice like he's speaking to a bunch of childre- wait.

15:40 - "...My Little Pony has been sort of shoved into the ghetto(?), 'Oh, its a girls cartoon' even though its really not. It IS but it ISN'T, you know what I mean..."

16:30 - CG characters...they OFFEND Sandy.

17:15 - Anyway apparently some Transformers show got nominated for an Emmy, and fans are upset that it wasn't MLP.

18:50 - THIS JUST IN SANDY IS 28. They're being asked about how to deal with people calling them gay. Not sure what took that question so long to get to them. Of course, I'm not sure I would call them gay for liking My Little Pony, I would call them gay for giving shoutouts to their internet friends by saying "I LOVE YOU!! KITHES!!!"

20:00 - They do the stereotypical "OH YEAH I SHOULD TOTALLY BE INTO FOOTBALL INSTEAD OF MLP BECAUSE THATS WHAT MEN DO." Also, it's lamesauce, and haters gonna hate.

21:00 - I...don't know what's going on. Apparently they're reading mail from someone who doesn't know how to fucking type.

22:20 - Applecider is "sadly not" an anime fan. Uh.

22:40 - Sandy starts listing off shit he likes like Tiger & Bunny and other shit I imagine might get reactions out of Prince Ali...if anything.

23:10 - Full Metal Alchemist...Fringe...Battlestar Gal...wha...Futurama? The question was about anime you fucking spaz.

25:00 - They're just listing off random shows (fucking of course they're doctor who fans) and Applecider mentions having a 'Sonic . . . Problem'. Pfffthahaha oh god, don't tell me he jumped ship from Sonic fandom to My Little Pony because ... oh god, I dare say that's even worse.

25:30 - "I got way, way into...dot hack, and found out that series was a pile of trash." So...you're incapable of figuring out things are bad until people tell you? What, is it gonna take a man in a pony suit slashing peoples throats before you realize how big of a fucking mistake this is?

27:00 - They're sperging about favorite ponies aguhauhguhag

28:30 - god they keep track of the latest pony paraphernalia, this 28 year old male is keeping tabs on what toys are being released for little girls. WHY.

29:30 - Applecider is relaying a story in which he apparently found an image with one of the ponies with a scar on its face, and he started to flip his shit about WHO TOUCHED MY PRECIOUS PONY SOMEONES GONNA GET HURT but lol it was mimicking a bond villain i feel so silly now

30:20 - Uh, apparently this next letter comes from some guy who wrote a...Fallout Fanfiction? I dunno. He apparently writes a fanfic that has its own following, and he spends upwards of 40 hours a week working on it. He is also a brony. This fandom is a whirlpool of circlejerking faggots.

31:30 - Said fanfic writer lets out a fountain of sperg as he compares himself and other 'creative' bronies to a certain pony who's gimmick I'm guessing is about creating shit for its friends and getting 'lukewarm' responses.

32:10 - He continues on by basically summarizing an entire episode and explaining in detail what it meant, even going so far as to list off the name of every single character involved. This insane display of autism makes me wonder if he should get his own topic in trolling conference.

33:10 - Oh, golly, as a person who's tried to make shit, I sure do find myself comparable to a pony making dresses. Oh, wait, NO I DON'T THAT'S FUCKING STUPID.

I have to step out now and hang with people who aren't fucking manchildren, but I'll leave you guys on the note that Applecider now understands and respects Fashion Show Pony after seeing her trials as a Fashion Show character.

Fuck.

[ ... ]

33:30 - I fucking hate this thing people do where they talk like they're characters in a badly written video game. 'TheWolfyMan' writes, "SO, YOU'RE LOOKING FOR QUESTIONS FROM YOUR READERS, EH? DANGEROUS REQUEST, APPLECIDER, DANGEROUS REQUEST. BUT ONE I WILL FULFILL FOR YOU" stop fucking roleplaying and just talk, jesus christ.

34:00 - They're being asked about continuity of characters who I assume just popped up in a flashback or something. It just seems like general "BUT WHAT IF" that geeks love to discuss because they have nothing fucking better to do.

35:10 - They of course discuss it. I don't know anything about the show but I have a feeling it's just like if they were being asked about the parents in Ed, Edd and Eddy. They aren't focused on because they aren't fucking important, it's really that simple.

35:50 - He creates a fake scenario, and then for some reason debunks his own scenario like he was serious about it. "They died in a car craaash- THERE ARENT ANY CARS."

38:00 - Guy writes in, talking about how he became obsessed with the show but had to limit himself to one a day, then proceeds to kiss the podcasters' ass like he's some sort of god.

38:30 - Oh, but he's actually got a question though. It just started to dawn on me how much these people need to write out the stories about their obsessions. They finally found a group of faggots as obsessive and nuts as they are, and they're just finally happy to let it all out, regardless of how unnecessary or poorly timed it is. And the 'bronies' are cool with this.

39:00 - Guy asks what exactly the 'job' is of this one pony. Apparently the ponies have jobs assigned to them by somebody and fuck this is stupid. Worth noting because Sandy seems almost ANNOYED that the guy didn't know this pony's job.

41:30 - Everyone here, including the mailer, and the two podcasters, have seen each episode of the show, 2, maybe 3 times. Also they're incredibly familiar with the names of each episode. If this isn't full blown autism I don't know what it is.

43:20 - They mention some episode that they had at some point skipped over because they heard it was annoying. I don't know why but this just seems stupid to me. It's like, oh no, the my little pony show had an episode that revolved around a character who was really fucking annoying. What a shock.

43:40 - Hell, I'm just generally baffled by the idea that these guys can actually say "this was a bad episode". Fanboys are suppose to stick up for their shows, man.

45:50 - If I'm hearing this correctly, this mailer wants to know what they think about some minor character, and Sandy is hoping that when and if they talk more about this character in the show, she'll be a lot like she is in the fanfics. Buauhguhaguha.

47:30 - Fuck my life, this guy wrote a question in the form of a poem.

48:30 - Uh, I think he's asking about Zebras. I don't know the context but I can assume it's too retarded to care about. More scary though is Applecider is currently looking for his reply, because he earlier wrote a reply to this poem that is ALSO a poem. Fuck these people.

49:00 - God, Sandy hints at something which seems to be one of their podcast's features, called Story of the Week, in which they highlight a fanfiction. Augh. Can't wait to get to THAT portion of the podcast.

50:30 - Applecider reads his poetic reply. He wrote a poem that doesn't actually answer the question.

52:00 - "I guess the question is, do you think we all should take a second to ask ourselves, who we are, and what we represent to the show and others." This is the best question ever asked to bronies ever. It's just a sad thought that no one, including the mailer, is thinking of it in the same way that I am.

52:30 - The other question asked is basically 'what would you insert into the show if you could insert anything', and as Applecider is asking "WELL WHAT DO YOU THINK" he quickly interrupts to say, "BESIDES wishing that we were part of the show" because that's exactly what Sandy was thinking.

54:00 - Applecider wants a halloween episode. Amazing. He ends this little fantasy with, "AND SILLINESS HAPPENS!"

54:30 - Applecider makes a comment about some pony doing something, failing, being sad, and he gets a chuckle out of picturing it. Sandy seems rather upset at the idea.

56:30 - They basically answer the other question by talking about how they should stop taking things so seriously by ignoring the people who others claim "are ruining the fandom". This is rather ironic, because the worst fans are the ones who feel the need to say how proud they are for being fans of whatever it is they love, and these guys are not only doing that, but basically creating a hive of fans by giving them a place to feel like they're special. In other words, fucking shut up.

56:40 - I had to rewind several times to hear what he was saying, but I fucking swear to god, during his 'serious moment', he said "everypony".

57:20 - Applecider chimes in to say, "Well, we do all like ponies." Not even joking, he says this like it was suppose to be something we didn't already realize.

57:40 - They compare their fandom to things like anime fans, 4channers, and furries. I woulda gone with other fandoms like, fans of war shooters, fans of family guy, fans of, i dunno, dane cook, but sure, let's bring up furries in our discussion about why people don't understand why we like ponies, at the same time lets also belittle them for being the weirdos that they are.

58:20 - "Somepony did this, somepony did that..." If theres one thing I fucking hate about these 'groups', its when they make their stupid gags and actually inject it into their vocabulary. I fucking hate it when people spout out "derp" a lot, so what do you think I feel about a group of faggots who have adopted a vocabulary of PUNS!?

59:30 - Guys, we can't be mad at bronies. It's just a show. We need to relax.

59:50 - They change topics while trying to 'shake out' the prickly-wicklies of this serious discussion. They don't actually say that but I used to hang around a lot of people who would freak out at the moment that any conversation got at all serious, and try to break it up with wacky antics, so I'm kind of irritated that these guys had to make such a big deal about moving on to a lighter topic.

60:00 - "I have got my mom into teh(sic) ponies. She, as a elementary school teacher, will use it for lessons for her classes." Ffffucking what

60:20 - Reader then randomly spergs about how he is a 'weapon nut' and walks around in a fake army jacket, and talks about how MANLY he is for sewing a pony onto his jacket.

61:00 - Uhhh, okay, Applecider is of course introducing apartment-mates into MLP, and even introduced a teacher into it, who was apparently a Veggietales fan until then. People are fucking weird, man.

61:50 - Teacher gave her student an award for being a completely annoying numbnuts. The award was named after a pony who is an annoying numbnuts.

62:50 - Wow, apparently these two are REALLY into pony fanfiction. Seriously, I gave these guys credit for sounding like normal dudes, but they're 28+ year olds who are going NUTS over fanfiction about my little pony characters.

64:30 - Apparently 'sadfics' that kill off all the ponies don't just happen, but they HAPPEN A LOT.

66:20 - They are annoyed when a fanfiction is full of grammatical errors. DO YOU REALIZE THE GROUP OF PEOPLE YOU ARE DEALING WITH HERE?

66:50 - GOOD THING THEY CAN POINT US TO A GUY WHO HELPS WITH MY LITTLE PONY FANFICS ON PONYCHAN. "HE WRITES GOOD AND DOESN'T AFRAID OF ANYTHING", SANDY ADDS

67:32 - Reader thanks the "awesome community" for making MLP so great, because otherwise, "people would see the show and be like, 'oh, hey look, ponies. The animation is pretty nice' and then it would just blow over." Y'know, he's right, thats what people might say if they saw this show but weren't aware of the fandom, but now that everyone in the goddamn world IS aware, they say, "Oh, it's the faggoty-ass show that 30-year-old men cream their pants over." Good job fans!

67:50 - Applecider talks about how he'd totally love a Pony MMO where you don't do quests. He then realizes, oh yeah, Second Life exists, but it runs really badly on their computers, despite having good computers. Uh, is that actually a problem with Second Life?

68:50 - Sandy is excited for the fighting game. He basically says, "Well, it seems they've got the backgrounds done, all they have to do is apply the characters and they're good to go." YOU DO REALIZE THAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT THE ENTIRETY OF THE GAMEPLAY THAT THEY STILL HAVE TO CODE RIGHT? STATIC BACKGROUND IMAGES ARE NOT SIGNS OF A NEARLY COMPLETED GAME.

69:10 - YOU CAN'T MAKE DUKE NUKEM FOREVER JOKES AFTER DUKE NUKEM WAS RELEASED. At least, you can't do it under the idea that something will never get released, because you're stupid fucking pony fighting game is not comparable to one of the most hyped FPSs ever, especially since nobody is going to give a shit if it goes unfinished.

70:00 - they talk about a pony dating sim. they seem mildly excited about it. i guess i could talk about how much of a fucking abomination that would be, regardless that it'll basically just be LOL SHOW INJOKES, but im just baffled that these guys were so 'meh' about pony pairings but are actually into the idea of a dating sim.

71:20 - The last question is about a hotdog eating contest. He asks what condiments the ponies would use to make the hotdogs...slippery.

72:00 - The answer is, get ready for it, "nopony" because OOOOH PONIES CANT EAT MEAT, THOSE ARE MADE FROM ANIMALS WHICH THEY LIKE, HURRRRRRRRR fuck off

73:20 - Uh oh, a "Hater McHaterpants" rated their show with a 1 star. D'aaaaaawwwwwwwwww.

74:40 - They talk about some fanfic site, and it apparently includes porn, but they're like 10-year-olds with how they avoid actually saying it. I just know they used the words, "Adult, uuuhmmm" and "clippy-cloppy".

75:00 - Oh, oh good, please applecider, please gives us ideas for pony fanfiction. There quite clearly ISN'T ENOUGH OF IT ALREADY.

76:00 - Oh, here's some we should go out and read. A MY LITTLE PONY + PORTAL CROSSOVER? OH JOYOUS WONDERS

76:15 - And, completely irrelevant to the Portal fanfic, another fanfic makes a 'the cake is a lie' joke in its title.

76:20 - "The 'Pony Psychology' series which I've heard MANY good things about."

76:25 - Oh, good, Doctor Who pony fanfics. I kinda seriously wonder if I could go find some fanfic where Felicia becomes a pony and has magical funtime adventures. That would make me cry. I just know Danger Bitch is going to show up with a Darkstalkers/MLP crossover image of some sort and it's going to hurt.

76:30 - ON A LIGHTER NOTE, I WONDER IF THE SERIES IS CALLED "DOCTOR HOOVE" AHAHAHAHAHAUHGUANHRIGVAISRVJ

77:00 - They say "Starry Skies" several times for no reason. Applecider's girlfriend joins in. Applecider acknowledges that she said this like she was a fucking child... okay, she probably is.

78:00 - Oh, good, Applecider's gonna be interviewed because he's a brony fan, and he feels he'll represent the fandom quite well.

78:40 - Oh, yay, and Sandy went to Anthro-con! Didn't he belittle furries not too long ago?

79:40 - He vouches for some fag in a pony suit who I'm sure has been posted on this topic not even two pages ago. They sound really awkward as they're trying to compliment it. 'Look, its...its cool and stuff, it isnt creepy...I know you think its creepy...just...just look at it and appreciate it, okay?'

80:00 - They are officially done with their special episode 10. Did I mention that this episode was 'special'? The only thing they did out of the ordinary was NOT have a guest commentator, which, I dunno, sounds like it makes an episode LESS special.

80:20 - Oh, goody, their next guest is going to be a PROFESSIONAL VOICE ACTOR. Not one connected to the show, I don't think, but a voice actor none-the-less. And Applecider does a fucking retarded impression of...himself I guess.

81:30 - They are really fucking upset about that "neighsayer ... number 1-star... poopy-pants" who gave them a bad review on itunes. EVERYONE GO FUCKING DO THIS if you can I dunno how that even works.
