THE LAST BronyCon commentary thread

[Quanta]

Those people will never know the secret to becoming a furry now. Denied forever.

[Blarghalt]

In line for Anthology with the Dingus Crew!

[Octavia]

Bronycon tweeted this



And one hour later, they had to cap the line for the Anthology panel because it was full more than an hour before the panel started.

[Bigdog]

"How to Become a Furry," featuring Brony Celebrity JHaller, was so big that we had to cut the line off.

yeah uh I can't help but think I'm missing something here

it's like having a seminar entitled "how to like pizza"

[Madeline]

[Blarghalt]

Also I hope you folks are having a good time!

It's not even the last day of the con and my mind is already leaking

[Perpetual Motion]

I'm glad you managed to recover from being assassinated by the Anthology crew to see the finished product.

What you are missing is Brony Celebrity JHaller.

[Factory Factory]

Too many pizza. Too much slices.

[Octavia]

Too many pizza. Too much slices.

7 of us at our table ate 4 pizzas listed as "serves 4-5" each.

"How to become a furry"

Step 1. Get an internet connection
Step 2. ???
Step 3. Profit(?)

Day three is done. Here's a nice story that I was part of today.

The Crusader's Clubhouse, our activity room exclusively for kids and their families (no press, no random attendees, etc.), usually hosts a few VIP events each year where our guests will perform for or draw with the children or so forth. Cathy Weseluck had one such session today where she, as the voice of Spike, was going to read a couple of children's books.

As the time for her appearance drew near, I got word that the Crusader's Clubhouse did not have the books in question. I began searching the office and could not find them either, but I did find a copy of Good Night, Baby Flurry Heart that we had ordered but as yet had gone unused. It seemed appropriate to me given the reading level of the book and Spike's importance in the Crystal Empire, so I ran it down to the Clubhouse with three minutes until the scheduled session was to begin, confident that I had at least averted a crisis.

Upon my return to the office I discovered that a fellow staffer found the books originally meant for use with that activity! While neither were specifically MLP-themed, both were about dragons and both were on the same reading level. He got those to the Clubhouse before Cathy Weseluck began. I would later learn that it all worked out in the end; she very kindly read all three books for the kids and signed them all as well.

"How to Become a Furry,"

1. pick an animal you like
2. draw yourself as said animal

optional: consider modifying said animal giving yourself features that it doesn't have irl or fantasy elements

Cat fursona but it has grotesquely realistic human ears. Got it.

[DaikatunaRevengeance]

[Factory Factory]

There's something surprisingly charming about this goth vampire fluttershy cosplayer.

[DaikatunaRevengeance]

They're also where cat ears would normally be.

[CorvusCaw]

And it's dead! The end!

[DaikatunaRevengeance]

[Quanta]

I can't believe horses are extinct.

[Skipper]

It's been a wonderful couple of days.

[Bigdog]

sounds like it was a good thing, i am sorry it will nto happen again,

[Fizzbuzz]

Well, it's all over (mostly). I know it's only a convention about cartoon horses, but I've found great satisfaction in serving the con and all its attendees. I always wish I could give more, but at the end I must be happy with what I have done. Perhaps in the future I can find another such organization to join, but for now I will be glad to get some rest.

[Quanta]

Goodnight, sweet princess.
And flights of pegasi lead thee to thy rest.

[ToastGhost]

Y'all are loved.

[DaikatunaRevengeance]

I can't believe horses are extinct.

i would hate to live in the same world as horses

weird smug little pricks with their eyes and teeth

[Fontra]

Only got four boners the whole convention, I'm very proud of myself.

[Fontra]

Two of those were to brony tears if it helps.

[DaikatunaRevengeance]

congrats

[Aramek]

[DaikatunaRevengeance]

congrats on finally getting your fursona

[Perrydotto]

I had a fucking awesome time and it all ending is definitely bittersweet

[Fontra]

Okay perry is forcing me to be serious so here goes me breaking character for a bit:

I enjoyed every single minute of it. I loved all the people who put the time and effort to dress up, to put up their booths, to host their panels. Most of all though I enjoyed meeting you guys irl finally. I may not be as into mlp as much these days, but I'll never forget the friends and family it actually gave me the past 6-7 years. Unironically changed my life in a huge way and I'll cherish that forever.




There now the sappy shit is over. I'm going back to ironically talking about how I want to put Master Chief in equestria.

[DaikatunaRevengeance]

[Skipper]

It was super fun hanging out with all of you, and I hope that we'll meet up again sometime in the (hopefully not too distant) future.

Even though I'm not a super active poster here, and never been really, I thoroughly enjoy being a part of this wonderful community.

Let's keep in touch!

[Skipper]

BTW, please enjoy this pic of Princess Celestia and me.
