My Little 'Bro-ny'

I am just going to assume that the people that are reading this, if there are people reading this, already know what My Little Pony is.  If you don't, it is a cartoon for little girls all about magical talking ponies with annoying high pitched voices.  Now, there are some people who end up watching the show even though they aren't little girls.  This is mostly due to the fact that they are guys that have little kids that watch the show and thus force them to watch it with them.  Eventually these guy get absorbed into the show and start to enjoy it.  This began a few years ago an I'm guessing some people know this already, but to try to hold onto the bit of manhood they had left these guys decided to call themselves "Bro-nies".

I bet you are wondering why I am bringing this subject to light.  Well the answer is quite simple really, I just learned this past weekend that my younger brother is in fact a "Bro-ny".  He can call it manly all he wants, but nothing is farther from the truth.
