Okay some things to clear. And for the record I'm an avid brony.

#1: Shame on the rest of you bronies who think aggravating the "haters" are "fun". If a person dislike your country, do you rub it in their face how some things are better in their countries than where they're from? If someone hates Canada, do you keep rubbing in people's face about your epic health care system? Do you think that'll get people to understand/be patient with you/ like you better? Again, for shame. What the hay happened to "love and tolerance"?

#2: Non-bronies/haters: if you don't like something, fine, you're entitled to your opinion. But do not make sweeping generalization about things you do not understand. Vegetarians are not automatically hippies. Liking a good show about talking ponies does not equate horse fetish/bestiality. Does that mean someone who likes the transformer movies/franchise have a hard-on for cars and robots and want to have sex with them?

#3: I think it's a cute little reference, and I don't care either way if they keep it or not.

#4: If anyone still wonder what this is all about, or is prepared to see some good entertainment and you have no stigma against "girls' cartoon" and are not shallow as to disregard it before really seeing it, then watch episode 3 "The Ticket Master" on youtube. Then episode 4. If you like those, then go back and watch episodes 1 and 2.
