the ONLY reason that I even care that gabe newell is a brony/likes the show is that it really sticks it to that group of obnoxious, irrational, hateful people who have to judge people simply based on what they like.
otherwise, I'm just thinking "oh neat, he also likes it." it doesn't really matter to me, but all I can think about is just how many people are raging at this fact, the kind of irrationality that's erupting from places such as 4chan and youtube over a guy liking a simple cartoon.
It's those kind of people that makes me sympathize with other people's need to sort of flaunt their love for MLP. I'm sorry for everyone who gets caught in the crossfire, but you have the plethora of angry retards to blame for this.
