To the Toilet and Back Again: ToonKriticY2K Hypes Up False Sexual Harassment Claims To Ban Anons from BABScon

ToonKritic's hat sits in a hotel toilet
The infamous hat rests in its natural habitat.
UPDATE: All charges against the anons listed below have been dropped since the article was published.  The anons have made apologies to FiauraTheTankGirl for any misunderstandings that occurred between them.  The racism charges were also dropped by the person who had signed that complaint as they did not actually witness the event first hand.  The sexual harassment complaint was never actually filed, but the person who made the complaint has already publicly withdrawn their complaint (as detailed within the article).  We hope BABScon will also refrain from placing any ban longer than what was already imposed upon them.

This is the story of a hat and its brief journey from the inflated head of the “analcyst” known as ToonKriticY2K (aka CarToonZ) to the depths of a hotel toilet at BABScon 2017 and how a lie about sexual harassment got the badges of the three anons involved pulled, who now face the possibility of being unofficially blackballed for life from all pony conventions.  For “borrowing” a hat.  A fucking hat.

Ponycon NYC 2016: Was it Actually February Spaghetti?

If you squint hard enough, you can see the pasta already developing in the clouds a day before the con started.
Folks, are a lot of claims about Ponycon NYC. Some of them are true, and some of them are just plain ol' bullshit. Join me as we sort through many of them to find out just how spaghetti Ponycon NYC 2016 was, and whether or not it qualifies to fulfill the brony fandom drama curse of February.

Libya Loves Horses more than We Do

This past semester I have been conducting a bit of research on the Middle East, adding tremendously to my poor search history that probably already had me high up on the government's watch list. But, somewhere in the midst of typing "ISIS" into a Google search bar hundreds of times, I stumbled upon a very interesting section from the Tripoli Post of Libya.
You can't make this up: http://www.tripolipost.com/equestrian_news.asp

Siesta Equestria Theft: The Squeakquel


Hey, at least the chipmunks sequel got SOME people to go see it.
Sorry the followup is a day late folks, but I was too busy sitting on my ass and minding my own business on Sunday. But who the fuck wants that, right? On the bright side, waiting a day gave more time for vendors to submit letters and for us to get a more accurate theft total, so head past the more for more horse shit!

Tara Strong to stop voicing Twilight Sparkle after this season


This was the scene on twitter moments ago, as self-proclaimed Brony Queen and the MILF with a thousand voices Tara Strong announces she's retiring her crown as Twilight Sparkle. Could this be another elaborate prank or is she really leaving the show? Believe it or not, this announcement couldn't have been made at a worse time to be taken seriously.

Horses horsing horse horsed


Horses horse horse horse, horsingly horse horse horse. Horse horse horse, horsely horsed horses. Horse horse horse? Horse horse horse. Horses horsingly horsed horses horse, horse horse horse. Horsed horses horse horse horse horses, horsedly horse horses.

Horsed horse horses horse.

FimFiction author "Mythril Moth" glorifies a sexual predator; doesn't see what the big deal is.


The following post is an opinion piece regarding events within the FIMfiction community. The post does not reflect the general opinions of HN, as Chelis is the only writer who uses that site in the first place, the rest of us couldn't give 2 shits about IT or THIS.



Take one mediocre writer with an ego the size of Final Draft and the Douchebaggery of Osaka Jack, add in some blank characters that have FIM characters in name only, and sprinkle in some of the author's /r9k/ tendencies and what do you get?

Drama.

Sweet, unadulterated drama.

The Second Great Clop Experiment


Over a year ago, Horse News forced me to make my first article a response to the rampant criticism that the fandom was endangering the innocence of little girls everywhere who were spending their free time Googling "My Little Pony" in between school and snack breaks, instead of playing with the toys, watching the show, or reading/coloring the books.

Now here we are responding to the same thing. All because the same people will complain until the end of time even when wrong. This time, we'll do a little bit of extra work, but mostly because we lost all of our interns at the company New Years Eve party.

New evidence suggests 4chan and m00t are older than the internet


It's no secret that the greatest site to ever bless the internet you can access with out using tor is 4chan, which is also the internet's designated asshole. A place from which lies are truth, man children are heroes, and the code of ethics changes on an hourly basis. While it is suggested the birthplace of countless memes, federal lawsuits, and the worse society has to offer was forged in the depths of hell in 2003 by a then fifteen year old M00t, new evidence suggests that this is a lie. Put on your Illuminati hoods and you hippie shirts because we're going back to 1969.

Making Season 5: The Screenwriting Process

Every once in a blue moon, we are provided with a new episode of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.  They just appear on our television sets, seemingly out of nowhere, only on The Hub Discovery Family.

But do you ever stop to wonder just where exactly these new episodes come from?  Today, we here at Horse News will take an in-depth look at the process of writing an episode script to eventually be turned into a full-length animated miniature horse show episode.
Wannabe script writers, take note!

Future US President condemns MandoPony's behavior


No one in this world is clean of sins. Not even the folks here at Horse News, your favorite family friendly pony news site. However, the one thing that's inexcusable? Promoting disgusting humor and behavior as a celebrity. Even as a Horse Famous "celebrity," one must set an example. It's been recently brought to us that MandoPony has duped us for too long with his disgusting behavior, and it took an up and coming politician to show us the truth about Mando.

My Little Pony to officially appear in DC Universe

Awesome art taken from courtesy of  kilala97
As if two massive shit storms following the leaking of a surprisingly decent Equestria Girls sequel and dismissal of a SJW comic writer, it seems the September/October drama season is still rolling, but with super powers. As we've scene from the IDW series of comics, and even an actual episode parodying comic book tropes, the My Little Pony franchise has a thing for comic books and superheroes. Hell, series creator Lauren "Mama" Faust created an official DC property herself with Super Best Friends. So should it surprise any of you that, coming this Thursday, the pony world will be joining the DC universe?

...okay maybe it should.

Trotcon 2015 Announcements

Horse News always comes first. Or at least we try to.
While Trotcon is supposed to be making their 2015 announcements tomorrow in an official newsletter, Horse News masturbated vigorously at the information given to us during the recent Trotcon stream tonight and decided that we would come first. More information below the break!

Tumblr'n Down the Devil' Hole: Lucariwoah

dear /o/ and /mu/: handle your users. thanks

Months of delays, bottles of tequila, drama, and anti-brony tears have finally led up to this moment: The much anticipated Lucariowoah article.

Hope you have health insurance everyone, the edge can and will be flying through your screen.


The Blackmail Brony Network: The evil empire that almost was


"Hi, wanna be our bitch for 7 percent revenue share?"



Blackmail.
Extortion.
Cuntfacedness.

In the world of pony media, there are different levels and groups of people. There's the Sethistos who have real power and don't give a shit, there's the Drafts who have no real power and are crazy about it, and there's the HNs who are just here for the booze. Recently, a new mutation on pony media tried to lodge itself into the fandom, like a tumor, sucking off the healthy (in our case we'll put quotes around "healthy") cells around it. It's name "The Pony News Network" or "PNN" (Or "Brony Network" depending on the day).

What have they done? Not as much as they want to do if you don't stop them now.

Tumblrin down the Devil's Hole: Vesperblade



A history of harassment, wishing car accidents on people, running scared, and a little known criminal offense called "accessory and conspiracy to commit blackmail" in this week's edition!

Burning Filly and Cookout (Or How I Learned This Meetup Was A Secret Plan For San Diego's Own Unicon)

Burning Filly and Cookout 
(Or How I Learned This Meetup Was A Secret Plan For San Diego's Own Unicon) 

Saturday the ninth of August. Chelis and myself (Rough Draft) attended a meetup that was shown as just a big bonfire and party, but to our surprise was actually a meetup to spread the word about a potential MLP convention in “America’s Finest City”.

"If we pretend to rave, maybe the staff will stop asking for donations."

After seeing how the event was handled and talking with some of the Event Staff, we’ve come to the conclusion that the chances of this convention happening can be summed up into three words. 

Robin Williams Dies At Age 63


Some very sad news for lovers of comedy and acting tonight, as Robin Williams has died at age 63.

Friendship is Magic's satanic origins confirmed and revealed


Have you ever wondered why My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, a show that was originally intended for little girls, has somehow brainwashed a massive group of adult males to form a cult following? Apparently it was designed hoodoo magic and New Orleans witch doctors to do just that, brainwash people in to a cult. A satanic cult that is! In fact, the signs have been in front of us the entire time and we never even knew it. Did you?
