Look at this idiot with his neck beard and fedora. I bet he just sits in his moms basement all day complaining about the friendzone. I bet he’s never gotten laid in his life.
Yup, pretty much my entire argument in a nutshell. It’s not the clothes you judge a person by, but how they act.
Is he really just trolling or literally making fun of him?
It was a joke. Me and Sam were pissed off at how demonized fedoras and how stupid the brony stereotype is because of only a few assholes.
Ignore freelancerreiko, he has an entire encyclopedia dramatica page on how much of a narcisistic asshole he is. He assumes everyone against him is a 12 year old troll because how could anybody hate someone who refers to everyone as kid, even if they're much older than him and claims to have a punch that can break through steel.
let’s send him a starving child in the mail 8D
No, let’s send him TO a starving child, I’m sure the village would love to have him for dinner.
good thinking, he should donate his meat to charity, he doesn’t need it
C’mon guys, you’re making a huge deal out of this. Different people have different priorities and opinions. No need to go on a massive hate campaign over it, or you’re not much better than 99% of all the internet assholes out there
With this guy it would be like you saying “let your dog live without any help even if you have the ability to” and that I can’t say anything back.
I kinda think sitting down when someone places yours and family’s lives’ values to that of useless garbage and means it, that’s sprinting past a line you don’t cross.
Jitters’ family is my family and you don’t get away with insulting them so vulgarly.
Mmm… this is where the interpretation part rears its ugly head. Personally I think he was just saying that he thinks it’d be better to use the money for charity and find another option for Jitters’ cat, but idunno. In the end he’s the only one who knows what he actually meant.
Also the whole thing’s gotten outta hand reeeeaaal quick.
“Or…ORRRRRRRRRRRR, you could take all that money and put it into charity like St. Jude’s and help dying children instead of the fucking cat :D”

Yeah, TOTALLY HELPING. I’ll put it into perspective and word it to be more relatable:
“Or…ORRRRRRRRRRRR, you could take all that money and put it into charity like St. Jude’s and help dying children instead of the fucking brother :D”
You can replace brother with sister, mother, father, or child. Whichever one you have.
Let’s add that he didn’t even associate Jitters’ cat with a relation, he made him a thing and separate, disregarding Jitters relationship.
tbh the same could be said of a lot of different things, but humans don’t view it that way. For example, if we replaced it with a farmer’s cow. The farmer might be attached to the cow, but a huge amount of people would disagree and say, “Yes! Slaughter it for food!” The way people see the world and the things in the world differs leading to different opinions. Personally I’d say go ahead and use the money for the cat since Jitters’ and you obviously love the cat so much, but SOMEONE should defend Raiko besides himself. I’d like to remind everyone that almost everything said was in defense of something others had said. If fewer posts were made specifically making out Raiko to be an asshole for his opinions then we wouldn’t be in this mess now would we, hm..? In truth, people aren’t reacting much better than the generic internet asshole right now.
All he did was express his opinion, albeit in his usual way which probably didn’t help things, but still. He expressed an opinion and got a shitstorm for it.
So you’re saying if he insulted me very rudely and said that’s just his opinion, it’s okay then?
No, I’m saying that in his ask he essentially stated that he didn’t view the cat as important as charity was. That was the opinion though he didn’t state is as that, and so that in addition with how people view him from previous encounters generated the whole shitstorm.
You’re assuming his position then.
I’ll say this here as a follow-up to your long post about Raiko, I understand his point of view and I disagree with it. Secondly, Jitters is moving to my place in 10 days, and the cheapest option for bringing Jitters’ cat is an extra $100 to be on a place with him. Jitters needed that money in order to do so.
Do you know insulted you would be if you needed the money to bring a relative with you under limited time, were going to do it, only to have someone say, “donate to charity instead of bringing the relative?”
I’m not taking any sides on this. I’m trying to get people to understand his point of view before making countless hate posts. Okay, it’s the cheapest option and best option for you guys, great! I’m happy you could get your guys’ cat to come with. And you disagree, that’s fine too, but does it call for massive amounts of hate posts? I don’t think so. That’s what I’m saying.
You previously stated you’re defending him, but now you’re looking for the “why.” That’s good.
To answer, in my point of view, when it comes to someone who only speaks close-mindedly after repeated attempts of compromise, what better way to make them understand than with something they can relate to: their reputation.
In my string of reblogs with this guy I pointed out some possibilities that could explain WHY he’s an asshole but that still doesn’t EXCUSE him from being an asshole.
a serious fucking problem in society that needs to be stopped immediately
as a boy i can say that this happens to me to (not on the same degree but still)
this happens a lot. It’s fine when it’s my firends but others make me uncomfortable. It’s like
“You’re so skinny, are you even a guy? Why do you always wear the same jacket, can’t you afford more cloths? You don’t think this girl is hot, what are you gay? What’s up with that stupid old hat (my favourite cap), get a new snapback already.”
This type of thing does happen to males. Luckily, I never go out in public except for school or friends so I’m not alone long enough for this kind of thing to get to me.
Do literally none of you know a single damn thing about contemporary men’s fashion? News Flash! The setting for today’s episode is a city based upon Manhattan. New York in general is known for being one of the fashion capitols of the world. As the MLP:FiM universe is a few steps behind our world in terms of culture and technology, it is likely that the ponies of Manehattan are intended to mimic an almost “old Hollywood” sense of style. The pony above looks more as though he is intended to be dressed like, for example, Humphrey Bogart, rather than the ludicrous stereotype being shoehorned into repetition by people all-too-eager to find something - anything - to make them feel “superior” to someone else. Considering that I have yet to personally witness anyone matching this stereotype, even at a Walmart, I have to question the alleged prevalence it has anywhere, let alone in any specific fan base.
Secondly, the addition of Tardar Sauce for a cutie mark allows for one, widely recognized symbol that embodies “grumpiness”, and also appeals to both children and adults alike. Are you people truly not yet aware that cats basically own the internet?
The assumption that the above pony is intended to be some kind of snide acknowledgement of the males in this fan base is just another example of exactly the kind of mindset I’ve been talking about. It’s just a Salem witch hunt using asinine behavior instead of fire and stones.
Honestly. You people act as though we’re still in middle school, and it’s getting a bit disheartening that anyone beyond the age of 12 would continue to conduct themselves like little boys giggling at their mother’s clothing catalogs. If we would all like to graduate to our age levels and realize that all groups are composed of unique and diverse individuals, rather than some faceless entity fabricated out of ignorance, then that’d be super.
It’s appalling how quickly so many people will hop on board the latest Condescension Bandwagon just for a quick shot in the arm of “superiority”.
(Pardon me for copy/pasting my previous response, but I felt it needed reiteration with the proper visuals for comparison.)
See? This is better than just saying, “Look what you Bronies did. You made Hasbro personify the fandom”
This is a better explanation for this character.
are you trying to seduce me with theese answers?
I wasn’t trying to seduce anyone, I just have a way with words which is why silver tongue is my oc most like me.
Is it narcissistic? yes.
Is it bad to make an oc based on how I perceive myself while keeping it close to how I actually am both physically and mentally while keeping it within canon style? No
That's a bit harsh. What if you had to choose between telling a little girl her parents were eaten by zombies or that her parents might be alive on the other side of the country?
AnonymousI hold truth very high so…
I hope this explains it. I was finding it too hard to do with words. So I used Words, Colors, And Pictures. The pony Examples are from a Pony Name Design Trade I did with Deviantart user Ai-bee.
wow this is cute
woah I wanna try this
Anyone wanna do ‘em? :3
Anyone want to do a few with me? :’D
Anyone up for this? c:
TOSSES COMMISSIONS AND TRADES AWAY
HELLO YES I WOULD LOVE TO DO A THING.
I wanna do this!!
Sounds fun. Lots of people should do this.
Okay that souinds cool and all but would a pony with the name sharkbait really go in the water frequently enough for her surfboard to be one of her identifying characteristics?
