This pony crap really is getting out of hand. It was fun before it came the next best thing since sliced bread, but now? Ugh....

I'm not sure what to think. On one hand if that patch is meant to be ironic (the contrast between a children's show and being someone who bombs real people does offer some comic value) I think it's kind of win, but if it's meant to be serious than "lolwut?".

I remember once on the The Daily Show Jon Stewart said jokingly that if gay people would be allowed in the military it would go gay entirely. And now it is happening. What will they do when Chinese/Russia/North Korea/Al-Kaida attack. Hug them? Use the power of friendship to convince them to stop and hold their hands and skip under the rainbow in the blooming and grassy fields and meadows under the sun?

LOL you are screwed. Thank god i am not from US my country military may be a joke but at least it is not filled with princesses in fabulous pink dresses.
can't tell if serious

Anywhoo I'd Imagine that were someone to be dumb enough to attack the U.S they would be faced with
5,500(ish) combat aircraft and bombers (USAF)
10 aircraft carriers
22 cruisers
66 destroyers
23 frigates
71 submarines
600 combat aircraft (USN)
8,700 tanks
over one million army grunts
195,000 Marines

I mean holy fuck if all of these things tried to give you a hug at once you'd be reduced to paste.

Wow, look at you guys, getting all pissy because you can't keep your noses out of things you hate.

"Oh look, a pony thread, I hate ponies, I'm going to read this thread that wasn't meant for me and accuse bronies of pushing it in my face."

You know what? You're right. We should stop talking about the show where others might see it. We should also stop talking about Doctor Who, Game of Thrones, Skyrim, Minecraft, our hate for Microsoft, steam sales, and other such things, because someone somewhere might not like these things. And if we talk about them, obviously we're pushing them in other people's faces.

Because we humans can't control what we click on, every time we see something we hate, we have to see more of it, and then insult the people who actually like it.

/end sarcasm

If you don't like it, stay the fuck away from it. Seriously. It's that simple.

You're forgetting about when people post pictures and gifs of ponies in threads that have nothing to do with them, so it's nowhere as simple to avoid them as you make it out to be.

This. This is why the rest of us U.S. military types don't take the Air Force seriously.
Which would also explain other brances of the military basically having the same things. Come on man lighten up

Lighten up? I haven't stopped laughing at this since I saw the article. I think it's hilarious. That being said, I'm also Navy. As a member of one of the other branches of the military, I am duty bound to make fun of the Air Force whenever possible. Besides, it's one thing to like MLP (I do). It's another thing entirely to put it on your uniform. If a Marine Corps or Navy Pilot did that shit, he'd have been fucking HUNG. >_> At least, he would if he was around the pilots I work for.

Ha well this is a whole platoon or something if I believe. So no hanging or such lol. Just wanted to point that out dude. Its not that adnormal just a joke patch. Its sorta like someone putting darth vader on a patch and wearing it.

I know. Some of the pilots out here wear patches like this:
However, my point still stands. I will also continue to mock the Air Force for it because that's just what the different branches do. We mock each other. Ruthlessly.

I've seen this posted on the escapist more than any pony gif. I guess I'm welcome to tell firefly fans to sod off whenever appropriate.

Well first of all, it's not from Firefly. I think it's from Castle, but I don't watch that show so I couldn't say.

Secondly, there isn't a massive hatedom for Castle.

But hey, if it riles you up then feel free to tell them to sod off. Who am I to judge?

I guess you shouldn't judge. But I would. Mostly because you're riled over AN IMAGE ON A COMPUTER SCREEN.

Fuck people[not you in particular]. Ponies aren't real. They can't hurt you. Smoke a blunt and chill.

That or I can just spike your drink with moonshine. But you consenting to the former would be far easier.

I don't know where to find moonshine.

Great news!
The dacia ... I mean the US airforce has a squadron consisting entirely out of furries.
You know like in that weird CSI episode with those disgusting animal suit people yiffing all over each other.
I'm sure if you're aware, but most furries aren't bronies; some might say that bronies are more extreme versions of furries, but I would like to distance myself from them.
Well, let's look at some MLP fanart...

Nope, can't show that...
No...
Wait, what?
That's an "interesting" crossover..
No
With urotsukidoji? Seriously?
What's ... I don't even...
*turns it sideways* With a melon?
I find your position on MLP fanart ironic, given the nature of your avatar.

Personally, I try and distance myself away from strange female fox-things with abnormally large mammary glands. Because some might find that more "extreme". However I generally keep my mouth shut on the subject, because it's none of my business and I'd hate to look like hypocritical fool. Maybe there's a lesson to be learned here.
Oh dear...
If only you knew what you're talking about, what irony actually is, or the reason why I have that avatar that seems to fill you with such disgust.
And "given the nature", by making that remark you clearly do not know the origin or the nature of the image, completely undermining your own point.

But you do have a point, or to be more precise, I could add a point to your comment.
I'm pretty sure there is some "interesting" fanart for Hyper Police.
However my avatar came directly from the show (a 3 second clip from a 26 episode show). It is as the creators intended and kept in exactly the same way.
The fanart I described is made my fans of the show, showing content the original creators never intended to be included, given its own pedistal and spread around the internet as is.
Also, Hyper Police is intended for a teen audience (I think) and not watched by little girls, unlike MLP.

And finally a point everyone seems to have missed, let's look at that last line of mine.

*turns it sideways* With a melon?

This is a very obvious reference to Monty Python's Storytime sketch, I suggest watching it. You can probably find it on youtube.
But then again, I shouldn't be surprised nobody recognized it, a lot of people nowadays only really know Monty Python for that Holy Grail movie and don't even realise they had a brilliant sketch comedy show long before that...

Huzzah to you sir, and why not a Gummy patch or a Gummy pennant. He's semi aquatic. If you suggested that you'd become King of the Fleet, or boat crew, or other military/nautical term for a group of co-workers.

I've seen like 3 or 4 episodes, and I don't get it. Every time I see it I say,"Yep. This is a show for little girls." The internet has made some funny things because of it but the show itself, I don't get it.

I get the feeling that a lot of my shipmates wouldn't take kindly to wearing crocs... duly noted, though.

It took me awhile to get into it, I always liked the art style and the things done with it but watching the show made me want to escape my skin. For me it took my friend poking me to watch it during our drinking nights. I found a character I really liked then saw her in a few awesome episodes and boom, watched the rest... well not that quick, it was pretty staggered but once I finished 2 seasons I was like "that was good" then soon I was like, dammit, I want more.

military (as in: organisation with the express goal of killing and destroying), especially air force (doing so from far away and/or with long range means, as in: not confronting your opponent - or in this case: victim - personally) and MLP:FiM don't mix well. not at all, actually. kind of a perversion :/

But this is really weird, in two days I recieved two warnings for posts that in the past wouldn't have raised an eyebrow.
There have been several new mods appointed recently, and a bunch of old mods have left, or so I've been told.

I dunno.
If the moderation feels different, I suppose that could be the reason.
