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 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 forum avatars.
Chris and ponies
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 or possibly the ancestor character, 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. Neither of the two parties realized, of course, that years later, they would become fans themselves.
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.
In a subsequent video following these events, he referred to his pet series as being a "TV-Y7 rated... friendship socializing, promoting type of series", which echoes the central themes of Friendship is Magic, meaning the series could be considered the type of show he looks up to, and wants his own animated series to be like. It will probably never happen, but it does give insight on how even after claiming to have given them up on My Little Pony a long time ago, it appears he still retains interest in them.
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
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. |
