Embarrassing moment's caused by pony...

Post by Nightmare Luna » Thu Oct 20, 2011 3:28 pm

Have you ever been in a situation where someone's found out about your love of MLP and have it be a bit weird?

Well I had one today. I found it very funny to be honest.

First set the scene, I'm alone in the entire store (I work in retail, oh the joy) getting thing's set up before all the other staff come in. So I think I know I will stick some MLP music on my Ipod to cheer me up. So working away I find myself starting to sing along minding my own business, but I don't care because I'm all alone in the store... Or am I? Nope, turns out while I'm mid verse of Art of the Dress the morning shift had arrived and about 4 people where staring at me wondering what the hell I'm doing, singing a song about making dress for someone called Twilight, Applejack, Rarity, Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash. I quickly changed the subject but got a few people asking what the heck it was all about. So I told them, even one guy said he will look the show up. So I may have converted my first person to the love of the pony. Now I get called "The Bronie" by people at work... Great :)

So anything like that from anyone else, or just me?

Well to start things off when I finally admited to my mom that I'm a brony, she precedies to call her close friends and my cousin and lets them know. Granted this is in a joking and embarsing manner. Well a couple of months later for my birthday my cousin comes and visits us. With her she brings her friend's two sons, I think they were maybe 9 and 14 not completly sure, because she had to watch them for the weekend. Well my cousin decides that it would be funny if she gets me a Celestia birthday card. The two kids just look at me like a dog looks when it hears a strange sound, while my mom and cousin are just cracking up. So I have to explain to these kids why a 23 year old man likes ponies.

Though I got my revenge in a way. I proudly display that card on my dresser, just to so them that I'm still proud to be a brony.

I haven't had a funny reveal, my mother just asked me why I was recording MLP, I told her G4 was a quality cartoon and it had Q in it, she shrugged and dropped it. My friends had much the same reaction.
I have had a close call though, I was doing a mid term presentation and had to actively stop my self from referring to my class as everypony on no less than four occasions in the span of ten minuets.

I have the everypony problem as well. Nearly slipped up a couple of times.

So far, I haven't had any embarrasing or funny reveals... There was this one awesome one though; when I found out one of my good friends was a brony xD
I was attempting to bronify her, when she replied that she was already a brony. Brohoofs were had. xD

I have also managed to bronify two of my three brothers. The last one is a tough nut to crack though. xD

Also... The everypony problem. Not yet, but it's bound to happen. xD

@ NIghtmare Luna
xD that is epic

i didnt have any slips with everypony simply because i dont speak english normally, but next year i will follow all classes at my university in english so i might have some trouble then.
i also found out yesterday that a couple of people on my server were bronies, it is always nice to meet others.
Everything will end in sunshine and rainbows!

I was discussing what color I would paint my little steam loco when the other fellow asked me why I didn't paint it Pinkie Pie pink. Apparently he had spotted the pony on the dashboard of my car.
