I wasn't sure If this was serious news, but apparently its a big deal or something. Friendship is Magic and all the awesome crazy ponies that go along with it have now entered meme status.
This is probably a good thing, though I'm sure the influx of new fans will bring in all sorts of issues.

I don't know, I might be a bit offended by that. I'd rather have it called fandom, but meme makes it sound kinda non-serious. Like everypony is watching it just to watch it.
ReplyDeletei agree with the above poster :/
ReplyDeleteI don't want the world to look at MLP:FiM like some random meme
Meme to me implies a passing interest -- like the previous posters said, calling it a meme suggests that our interest in it is because of some ironic reason or something.
ReplyDeleteIt'd be like calling Marvel Vs. Capcom 3 a meme because it's a popular subject on /co/ right now.
Actually, it hasn't been confirmed yet. So it's not *technically* a meme, someone just submitted it to Know Your Meme.
ReplyDeleteDo I get to be a meme?
ReplyDeleteWhile /co/ initially loved the series because of the artwork and animation, fans on /b/ seemed to enjoy the plot and characters more.
ReplyDeleteIt didn’t take long for the show to cross over with other memes, such as “Post ending in x will y”, nor did it take long for threads with over 200+ posts about the show to become common,

Help with research needed
i reads like this was made by a /b/tard that doesn't know shit about the threads on /co/ and assumes that the the fans are mostly on /b/ and that /b/ is better

Just because it's a popular show does not mean it's a meme.
ReplyDeleteSo mad.
This is stupid, and Know Your Meme is cancer. A meme has to be more specific than liking a show.

ReplyDeleteYeah no, this is all /b/ being retarded. None of these guys know what they're talking about.
/b/ has the inverse midas effect.
ReplyDeleteEverything they touch turns into shit.

ReplyDelete"Fans on /b/ seem to enjoy the plot and characters more"
Haha oh wow. Yeah that's why people keep a 24 hour thread up and why there's tons of fanfics, artwork, and discussion of the plot done by /co/.
It's kind of funny that the rest of the internet (and /b/ itself) doesn't even know anything about the other boards on 4chan. Considering that the rest of 4chan is where the actual funny and original stuff develops its kind of sad.

ReplyDeletemy dear dash, even if you are a meme you are 20% cooler than everypony
FiM is now THE meme :D
ReplyDeleteIf it wasn't for the mlp:fim memes I would never have become a Brony. not sure if I would have even known about it.
