    well i told my father about being a brony 2 days ago.
    i had to get some tickets for galacon in stuttgart and needed him and his credit card for that matter :/

    so what i had in mind was just:
    >get on phone
    >send him a link
    >tell him: "those 2 tickets please"
    >hang up

    because i really didn't want my daddy to think less of my for liking ponies and such...
    so i wanted to make this a s quick as possible

    so it went something like this:

    >heya daddy-o. need you to me a favor.
    >send him link
    [​IMG]
    >can you please follow my insturctions for a sec and get two tickets for a convention for me
    (i'm paying him back cash ofc, just don't have a credit card)

    now it's cool, he has been to dragoncon in atlanta with me before and he had fun aswell, so...

    >he clicks on the link?
    >awkward silence (ponies? nope.)
    >"that is a show for little girls. what is this about?"
    >it is a convention >.< please just do what i tell youuu!!"
    >what is a convention?

    arrgh!!
    well i guess he was just flabbergasted with the sudden realization of ponies...

    >son i think you should make up your mind up about this first
    >silence
    >i will call you back tomorrow


    feels bad man :/
    i have been able to get those tickets by bank transfer now.
    but he hasnot called me back or talked to me since. i'm sure
    it's not a big deal, but it just felt awkward. just though i'd share with you guys^^

    My mum walked in on me watching MLP and I was like 'So... Yeah I love this show.' Then she knew for sure when I changed my wallpapper to RainbowDash and I had little RainbowDashes and Princess Lunas trotting around my screen. I'm pretty sure she know I'm not gay, but I think she thinks I'm a little odd.... Like I care! My little pony is amazing and I'm proud to love the show! And so should everypony else!
