'''My Little Pony''' (MLP) is a line of [[toys]] and animated programs intended for girls aged 4-8. In [[2007]] Christian picked up the interest by trying to impress his [[Gal-pal]], [[Megan]]. He would send his friends custom-made My Little Pony dolls. Back in the days of [[ED]] there was speculation that he inserted hairs from his own head into the dolls; this, however, was debunked once people began to learn more about him.

After a [[wikipedia:My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic|recent revival of the show]], people outside the intended demographic of the toy began to show a strange interest in the dolls, such as 4chan, thus making Chris automatically fit right into this category. Since the renewed popularity of the show, he has adopted some of their idiosyncrasies, such as using characters from the show as [[Tomboys and Tomgirls of Virginia|forum]] avatars.

Chris Chan: The original brony

My Little Pony (MLP) is a line of toys and animated programs intended for girls aged 4-8. In 2007, Chris picked up an interest in the franchise in order to impress Megan by sending his friends custom-made My Little Pony dolls. He has since shown a developed interest in the "My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic" show.

Chris and ponies

One of Chris's ponies, as seen in his bedroom.

The homemade ponies vary between being blatant ripoffs of anime characters, most notably the titular character from Naruto and Edward Elric from Fullmetal Alchemist, and horrible Mary Sues such as Cheroki-Chan, who is clearly based on the comic-book version of Chris, and Crystal, whose origin is obvious.

In his infamous FUTURE MESSAGE, Chris first made his love of My Little Pony known when he recommended to all his viewers that they buy MLP figures of their favorite color to stroke and rub against their cheek, claiming that it was "very therapeutic" and that one could talk to the ponies and pretend that they were girls they wanted to ask out, to help them build confidence. At the time, this was viewed as a very revealing aspect of Chris's life, earning him the mockery of Encyclopedia Dramatica and 4chan yet again.

In Captain's Log, Stardate March 18th, 2009, you can see his My Little Ponys hanging from his ceiling.

One of the latest known references to MLP made by Chris was on the Tomboys and Tomgirls of Virginia forum, where Chris used a picture of Applejack from the more recent My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic animated series as his avatar, although his screen name was modeled after the name of another major character in the series- Rainbow Dash.

Applejack as Chris's avatar on Tomboys and Tomgirls of Virginia.

A Friendship is Magic Rainbow Dash toy can be sighted in the background of "Correction of EX relationship status" and a My Little Pony sticker can be seen on Chris's 3DS in the Wristwatch-SwissWatch video.

Chris also has a Friendship is Magic playlist on his YouTube account that includes all the episodes, confirming once and for all his love for a children's show.[1] Considering his previous track record, it's not exactly surprising.

Cutie mark

In the new videos released on Feb 25th, Chris was spotted showing off a drawing on his left thigh which he calls his "cutie mark". It is the combination of the male and female symbol. It does not seem to be a real tattoo, but instead is drawn on.

In My Little Pony, a cutie mark is a symbol showing off a pony's special talent and interest. Chris's special talent, it seems, is being a tomgirl.

In the comics

Show this to any father with a young daughter and he'd probably think she made it. Purposely bad.

Like any eight-year-old girl with the hopes of marrying a blue prince in a fairytale wedding with her BFF pony by her side, Sonichu Special 2 reveals to its unfortunate readers that Chris might have harbored similar thoughts, as his ideal wedding also features a My Little Pony.

After having received a blessing from the best [wo]man Sarah Hammer, the recently united Chris and Ivy leave the church where the wedding was held in a carriage pulled by what many trolls speculate to be a badly-drawn Rainbow Dash, which is harnessed to the carriage with what appears to be the Boulder Badge from Pokémon.

Chris's depiction of himself as a pony...or rather, a horse- too awesome to be a common pony. Just as Chris, Cheroki-Chan has a few quirks, likes to draw and color, but above all, he is noble and honorable. Cheroki-Chan "creams" of finding a sweetheart for himself, yet is having problems, mainly from being rejected once by that multi-green pony, possibly camouflaged.
