sneak-a-peak from my mind 1: research · 11:16am Aug 15th, 2014
I'm off for the next two weeks or so. you enjoy that time. but first... this.
You can skip the next three paragraphs if you want. They’re not pony related at all, or have a meaning. It’s just something that I want to tell.
So, as you maybe know, I was on graspop 2014. and we saw many groups. First, there was alestorm. Freaking awesome. Christoffer knows how to make an awesome show. We stand at the first line! (they sang keelhauled, Nancy the tavern wench, drink,…) And after that, almost the whole audience left, (except me and my friends) and we started to eat. We sat down, in the front, leaning to the fence, and all off a sudden, we look up and who was there…? Yes. Christoffer boons. So we chat a bit, laughed, drank some famous ol’ spice, and sang. (freaking awesome!!!)
Then, steel panther… one of the best shows ever! Girls, sing-along-songs (death to all but metal, party like tomorrow is the end of the world,…) and a lot of boo… headlights. (great ‘light show’) XD
And Slayer!!!! Skilled. Power wolf, Death (dta) Black Label Society, Anthrax, Black Sabbath (indeed, with Ozzy Osbourn)
And now, the pony related stuff, Sabaton. Yeah, you read it right. Sabaton was performing there show, and then, someone threw a Rainbow Dash pillow at them. (not kidding. It’s the truth, really) he scolded at us. (he thought we were all crazy.) but this means, that a lot of bronies are actually metal heads.
And I did a research of it.I asked random dudes what they like to watch an TV. I threw it in a list here we go. Top five famous TV shows in the metal world.
1) south park: South park is an amazing show. Everyone knows it on Graspop and they even discus this. The show became so popular, that it even created a Mexican wave. When you yell ‘Timmy’, the whole crowd around you will yell it too. Timmy!!!
2) Adventure Time!: Jake-shaped hats, dudes dressed like Finn. So, yes. The show is well known. And most of the people even knows the song. (not the introduction song) but the tuff tauten baby song! people laugh with it and agree that it’s the best new TV cartoon ever.
3) Games of thrones: Games of throne. To laugh your fudding limbs of.
4) Megas XLR/ samurai Jack : Well, the shows are both cancelled in Belgium, and they’re pretty old, but they’re still well-known among the community… I’m not good in discussions.
5) My little Pony: will be discussed later
6) (school is out, so I don’t have to know how to count….) everything about Marvel and DC. And more. You’ll see a lot of weird costumes like Spiderman, Thor, Iron Man, … even doctor Evil and Link!
So, yes. The first four are believable. they are awesome shows. Everyone agrees with it and they can talk about it. but number five, is a bit strange. So, I’m going to explain that with theories and facts.
My Little Pony. Every metal head knows the show. Even a lot off people likes it. You can say that MLP is famous among the metal heads. But how does it go? Are all metal heads actually bronies in disguise? NO! not at all.
(okay, the first random stranger I met by accident was, but that doesn’t count)
I guess that around 10-15% of the metal heads who were at Graspop were real bronies. The rest knows the show ‘cause of fan-art. Keep going!
But how do the non-bronies react to the brony-community? Easy. Metal heads are the most friendly and tolerable people you will ever meet. So they are okay with the fandom. Maybe there are some real haters, but that’s only on Monday when they are sober.
And I know what you’re thinking… actually not. But I’ve got three options of what you should think.
1)
‘shut the fuck up, you are so fucking lame! I want to shoot at someone. And drink some rum to forget this blog!’… (I agree)
2)
‘what happened with the Rainbow Dash pillow?’
Well, belief it or not, but I asked it Joakim Broden himself. I asked ‘what have you done with the pony?’. and I literally repeat. ‘we don’t talk about the pony anymore. She’s not among us anymore’… I think he ate the Rainbow Dash pillow.
Oh, I wanted to bring a Rainbow Dash pillow as well, so Joakim could sign it, but I couldn’t find one. (he had to laugh with it when I told him)
3)
‘what’s up with the title? Pummers isn’t a real word!’
we thought that a mate of me was death. (we were drunk XD). But he kept talking. So we started breakfast without him, and we ate pancakes. He wanted an other word for ‘pancakes’. But it had to be short and powerful. So he made up ‘pummers’ so from now on, pancakes are renamed as pummers.
PUMMERS
Derec out.
Question. I think I’m going to start a blog series called ‘a sneak-a-peak from my mind’. It’s about my mind, theories and short, random stories. And my question is… good idea? Please, leave a comment.
Derec out two.
and other stuff... (again)
I'm going to Hungary tomorrow for two weeks. no wifi there.
bye I'll miss you all
W-what happened with the Rainbow Dash plushie? Yes, I know he didn't tell you, I mean... I want to hear everything he said about it! I want to know the full story!
2636629 well, as I said.
in the middle of the preformance, they threw a RD plushie. the lead singer grabbed it and said we're all crazy. he put it aside and continued the show.
next day, I asked them and the only thing they said was 'We don't talk about the pony anymore. she's not among us any longer'
2636632
Oh, yes, I saw that in this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6kS4PeWHqK0 (the RD part starts at 6:32)
What do you think he was thinking at the moment?
2637076 *what the hell are those guys doing?*
