 Re: Bronies, in this neck of the woods?
Wow, even worse etymology of the word. I refuse to use it to describe fans of the show.

 Re: Bronies, in this neck of the woods?
Eh, I'm not a big fan of the word either. Probably because everyone thinks it's bro+pony, and I have never (and will never) called anybody 'bro' before in my life.

Where in the world did the 'r' come from, then? I just can't go on believing that the word did not come about in some way from 'bro' plus 'pony' no matter how many excuses are made (I have never seen anybody explain the 'r'). That's why I will never call myself one.

 Re: Bronies, in this neck of the woods?
Why does everyone seem to have a problem with me liking something that I haven't seen a full episode of? I've only ever seen it in Youtube poops. :|
