I just want to preface this by saying I doubt the artist thinks every brony is like this. I'm sure the guy who drew this:

I actually agree on this, like the 'How to kill a ____' series on youtube did something like this and it was just the same jokes we've already heard over and over, which was mostly lame because the actual announcer-guy sounded butthurt himself. Except I laughed at the fedora tipping tho, I used to be into that but now I just, no.

Doesn't hate bronies in any hateful/malicious way. I also have nothing against parody of things I love... so long as they're done will. Steel Panther is one of my favorite bands and they are basically an entire parody of glam metal. That being said...

As much as I don't mind parody, this is just... lame. I'm not saying that you can't parody anything MLP:FiM related, but the "oh bronies are perverts/neckbeards/fat" for the past several years. The joke is so old and I honestly find people who make those jokes to be more cringe inducing.

Yeah, some fans of the show don't look like GQ models. What about it? When you break it down, the joke is just 'they look so weird, ha ha ha' and that's it. This is some weak ass Seinfeld shit right there.

Of course, some of the stuff not tied right to the fans tend to have its issues. Where as APPLE.MOV was just crazy, it still seemed to light hearted. Some of those that follow, however, just seem either too mean spirited or trying way to hard to shock that they end up just becoming lame. I mean... you made Derpy into a tea cosy. Okay, why? What's the joke there? Oh, you just wanted to anger some people to get them talking.

All I want is just to have some new jokes with MLP parodies; is it too much to expect that there'd be some different jokes. We've only had 4 seasons and a whole money that was basically made to promote a line of toys. The latter is the kind of thing MADE for parody.

Parody the shameless nature of the official toys that are designed by people who think your child is too retarded to remember that Celestia is white and not pink. Parody the desire to have every MLP collectable without making the collector into a creep or pervert.

Some people will spends $100 to import a limited edition MLP item that will just sit on their shelf get glanced at at best. Then you can subvert that by switching off to a sports fan who spent $100 on a signed football he'll never throw and show how each can be silly without coming off as mean.

So, what it all boils down to, at least for me, is just find some new jokes.
