deviantart, fandom: my little pony, lovers on the astral plane

Just In Time For FW's Anniversary!
My friends:

I have just found a wank that arguably combines elements of three of the classic wanks recently featured in the Deathmatch: His Wife, A Horse, the Snapewives, and My Ponies Hate You Now.

Simply put: Deviant Art member Kevinsano specializes in My Little Pony art. However, another Bronie recently wrote him a letter asking him to curtail his more erotic MLP art, particularly art depicting Twilight Sparkle - because, argued this correspodent, he and Twilight Sparkle were engaged.

I'm totally head over heels in love with Twilight Sparkle. I have been for 11 months now and at this point I'm in a committed relationship with my Twiley.

Actual email reproduced here. MTV coverage here, and the AV club weighs in here.

Enjoy.

Updated: For your convenience, a dramatic reading of the letter, if you prefer podcasts...

Update the Second: The blushing bridegroom's account of his love story on the MLP fandom fora. (I couldn't get the link to the profile to work, so than you for this!) (Update of the update: link now goes to a Googlecache as the forum link proper stopped working.)

	And by "not actually that intelligent" I mean, not a genius. The scoring on intelligence tests has actually been reasonably consistent. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Well, you are a genius in the technical sense of the term. But IQ doesn't necessarily have as much to do with "intelligence" as conventionally understood; I described IQ as a capacity thing. It's like, the size of a pitcher; most people have a half-gallon size pitcher, and we have, like 3/4 gallon pitchers.

But what you do with the pitcher actually is much more interesting to people. No one's gonna care about a 3/4 gallon pitcher if it's full of rancid strawberry yoo-hoo, for instance. Fortunately most people do fill their pitchers with something better, like lemonade or sangria. But conversationally we just reserve "wow, that person's a genius" for someone who's come up with something really interesting for their pitcher, regardless what size it is. And coming up with something super for your pitcher involves many other factors aside from just its size.

	"Pitcher" will never seem like a real word again. (Reply to this)(Parent)
