Looking Back on 2014 and Moving Ahead

It's been a long, rough, fun year for all of us. In 11 hours on my end, it'll be 2015. In a touch under 20 days, it'll mark the one-year anniversary of this site. We rose from the ashes of Princess Molly, helped reveal the Sam Hyde MDE scam, laughed as one head of a newssite was kicked out of BABS, and cried when another spilled his mayonnaise. What was your favorite moment this year, lads? And, somewhat importantly, where do you think you could've gone back and done better with that thing that keeps you up at night?

Finally, what the fuck are you drinking tonight when it's time to get plastered? This is Horse News, signing off for 2014. Let's kick ass next year.



For the record; Winning the VG League 3/NYCC Press, Mayogate, and Chardonnay

    1. Any better than last year?
      I lost a family member this year, I fail to see how 2015 can be anything but an improvement.

  3. Drinking tonight? Nothing I spent the last 3 or 4 nights drinking beer or cider. Gotta give it a rest.

  4. My favorite moment of the year was the whole thing because I'm insane, and I'm drinking another bottle of Auchentoshan tonight.

  5. My favourite parts were always the reactions. An article was good if it was well-written, but it was only great if it got some autists to embarass themselves in the comments. Even Chelis's Tumblr articles, which were not always the best, were a highlight of my week for how many SJWs they attracted and how mad they got at him over it. Wwwarea and Aoshi were also hilarious and memorable for their sheer persistence and dedication to making themselves look as bad as possible. And I still laugh when I think back to that one obsessed anon who had a massive hateboner for JJ after he stopped Molestia.

    But my actual favourite moment must've been when Tumblr got mad over Catfood's comic and came over to rant about Ferguson in the comments, whereupon every textwall they left only revealed more of their ignorance, until one anon who actually lived in Ferguson and who was actually African-American gave them the best smackdown I ever saw by comparing them to the KKK and calling them out on their white guilt. That was great.

    And one last minor one, but I also have a soft spot for the Mando/Cats "rivalry". Not much came of it in the long term, but it's a rare piece of drama that actually inspires me to write greentext stories, so that was special to me.

    1. Ha I remember that one anon, he was such a massive autist. He kept saying 'try harder' In response to JJ getting C&D's. Like JJ 'trying' would make jack to Hasbro.
      Aoshi's comments where funnier than the actual articles.
      Too more drama in 2015.

    3. Prove that wwwarea and that other guy was "making them self look bad".
      They did nothing wrong.. But Tuxxy, and MLPCritic actually did make themselves look awful as possible.

  6. I attempted to have sex for the first time. I had an erectile dysfunction. She bled. It was disgusting, and was like marinara to top my spaghetti.

    It was my fault for wanting to fuck >no hooves...

    Mine was when I finally learned how to masturbate to Pinkie Pie. It was truly a wonderful experience.

  8. This year sure had alot to offer in the way of drama. I hope next year can bring more actual pone stuffs, as seeing tumblr shit itself has become a daily occurrence now.

  9. My favorite part was the Tater Salad incident at BronyCon. It was the only fan related drama I actually experienced first hand, and frankly, it was one of the few drama incidents that didn't really have any adverse effects on the fandom at large (unlike Molestia's takedown or Ted Anderson's "satire").

    I think that this year was okay, but the fact that Ted Anderson is still working for IDW really bugs me. There are plenty of other writers out there who could do his job decently. It just boggles the mind that all of those higher ups keep defending him.

    Also, drinking ginger ale. Because I'm weird.

    1. A no talent hack isn't going to get fired from a company made up entirely of no talent hacks.

  10. Anyone remember that one convention where some anti-brony bitch makes up this HUGE lie about how she basically endangered a child to play the white knight against a big fat brolester that was creeping around the convention? And after someone said "Why didn't you call the cops if there was a child predator on the loose?", the story just kept getting toned down more and more, and the blame shifted to the staff more and more, and there was never a single shred of actual evidence that this whole thing wasn't 100% bullshit?

    1. Last I heard, someone sent in an email to the BABScon staff claiming to be the parents saying that the whole thing was blows way out of proportion, and that their daughter was totally fine and was never in any (serious) danger.

      But outside of that, absolutely nothing. I'm willing to bet that the story was completely bullshit in the end.
