You, guys, have to look into yourselves before saying that bronies or any other similar devoted followers of any worship are weird. Look, this Forum is full of political junkies and weirdos (I include myself, of course). Not to mention how comedic may be many of the posters around here. Don't play to be 'adult' persons, because many of the non-bronies around here sometimes seem childish as well. Live and let live, kids.

Bullsh**t. There is no equivalency between analysing political demographics and election results and being a fan of a television show aimed at prepubescent girls. None. At all. Now, I say this as a person easily bored by discussions of county-level election results from the 1920s, or how Laotian-American Republicans have voted in primaries since 1976, but there is no comparison. Our best electoral statistician is an PhD-holder elected to statewide office. This Forum's preeminent "brony" as a 30-something who calls Lent by another name because he thinks it's too "mainstream". The fact is that one requires a deep width and breadth of knowledge; a working understanding of statistics, psychology, demographics, economics, and sociology. The other is at the level of toddlers- its damn target audience.

Simfan, that was beautiful.

I'm trying to figure out why ~30% of the forum is bronies now.

Man, you know I'm not exactly a "brony", but you realize the alternative is BushOklahoma?
Well at least we are in his target audience, unlike My Little Pony.

MLP's target audience is kids.

And I can make a show about the [X thing] and later say I made it for "fans of [X thing] and their [X relatives]" but does that make it anywhere near true?
