Due to the Wired article

http://www.wired.com/underwire/2011/06/bronies-my-little-ponys/

the "brony" fandom for "My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic" caught
the attention of the NPR program, "Wait Wait Don't Tell Me". The
program has since done several MLP themed sketches.

The most recent one was a "Not my job" quiz show segment. The guest
this week: Bill Clinton.

Neat. The pony conspiracy goes all the way up to the (former)
president. :-)

Oho, this one's good. I'll delete alt.toys.my-little-pony from the
cosspost for reasons that will become obvious.

I wonder what Bill's cutie mark would be? (A cigar?)

There are people who say, "My Little Pony is cool."

Well, as Bill Clinton himself once said: "That depends on what your
definition of 'is' is."

Not so much My Little Pony as My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.

Los Angeles has billboards with this image. Kind of like what the
Cartoon Network once did. Still, it would never have occured to me to
reference a hard R movie.

And here's a special poster for this year's ComicCon.

Man, what a poster. The really cool part is that a lot of memes that
became popular in the fandom are referenced in it.
