Da-mn. That is scary as shit.

More than anything, that just shows me how much I want a MLP:FiM OST. The background music is just as gorgeous and/or quirky as the main songs.

The song that they seem to listen to at parties is pretty weird.

Who is Kimmel?

Solid Snake · 05-03-2011, 05:08 PM

An American late-night talk show host. (Who isn't very good, but who somehow gets all kinds of A-list celebrities to appear in his yearly skits around award season.)

What I consider important about that clip is less the fact that Kimmel (who clearly knows nothing about ponies) ran it, but moreso that whichever staff member / writer on Kimmel's team edited that clip is clearly a Brony. Aside from the FIM reference there are several subtle nods that he's a fan that you'd understand (particularly if you were as familiar as my mother (sadly) is with Celebrity Apprentice):

The specific quote about "friendship" is the biggest clue, but also the fact that the argument from Apprentice was about class differences, and of course Applejack is the "street-wise" pony and Rarity is "high-brow upper-class" and that's exactly what the ponies were arguing over throughout the course of the sleepover episode, and also precisely what the two annoying Celebrity Apprentice women were rambling about.

...It's either an insane coincidence, or a sign that someone's a Brony over there.

*Facepalm*

And you know... something interesting. If male fans are "Bronies", what are female ones?

This is also quite excellent. I look forward to much more mainstream ponies, as it can only further spread the infectious love of all things MLP.

I believe the correct term is "Fillies."

Honies?

Speaking of Honies...

To paraphrase from a poster on the MLP appreciation thread at RPG.net, I want a comic where Rarity chews them out for their tackyness.
