Secrets out
 

Ah hell. i just told some people I developed an addiction to mlp. Now I figure everyone will make fun of me now.

Re: Secrets out
 

And now you're telling even more people.
The way I see it; as long as you're not shoving it down peoples throats and shitposting ponies at any and every opportunity,
I don't think anyone really cares what you're interested in. If you enjoy the show you shouldn't be concerned with what others think anyways

Re: Secrets out
 

Well I'm just concerned. I feel like the only one here with an interest like this.

Ooo... I didn't think I would see this again.

Re: Secrets out
 

Yeah. I'm just sort of concerned.

Re: Secrets out
 

You'll be all right. :p Depending on how old you and your peers are, you might encounter some teasing from those you've told, sure. Try not to let it get you down! You're entitled to enjoy whatever hobbies you choose. Others are entitled to their opinions, but as Mourningfall said, that shouldn't be your concern.

I'm 21 and I still like the show.

I know a 35 year old who watches it, mainly only with his nieces, but he still enjoys it.

Re: Secrets out
 

Wow really?

Re: Secrets out
 

Don't be afraid to do what makes you happy. :) If you enjoy the show, then I think it's fine to keep watching it. If other people don't accept your hobby, then it's their loss. Maybe you'll even find a friend who enjoys the same hobbies you do.

this thread is definitely going places, i can feel it

So what you're saying is, you are afraid of people disliking how you spend your down time? If this is the case, why? You do things in your personal time for you, and you alone. It is nonsensical to be concerned with approval for something which only really needs to concern you. Also, why would you tell anyone if you were concerned about such disapproval? If you happen to do something, you don't have to tell people about it.

Like anything else, if you bring it up at inopportune times, or start referencing it when no one else knows what you're talking about, you'll probably get some backlash. If people genuinely are attempting to make you feel insulted over something as trivial as watching a cartoon, that is rather pathetic though. I can't imagine such people would be worth associating with if they aren't even able to handle people doing something so minor.
