The End wasn't The End - Found a new home after the great exodus of 2012

To be fair you’re only looking at things from a picture perspective, which TBH does mostly focus on hands, as those are physical, visible objects we can all relate to. Fanfiction, from what I’ve personally read, goes a bit further/deeper than that, making Lyra a sort of kooky conspiracy theorist regarding us. It’s a lot more interesting, and allows for her to fit in with Equestrian society a bit more than just LOLHANDS.

Neither of those are nearly as omnipresent as humie Lyra. It’s damn near impossible to find a good Lyra fic/comic/picture without being swarmed with LOLHANDS constantly.

I understand that, but let me put it this way. I didn’t care for the “Luna likes grilled-cheese” gag, or the Button Mash memes, but I don’t complain about them all the time.
 
Seriously, we can’t post one Lyra pic here now without somebody bitching.

I’m also confused by that mindset. If something you like becomes really popular, that’s a GOOD thing!
 
I guess the logic could be something along the lines of “I’m one of the few people who like this obscure thing, therefore that makes me special and cool!”, which is really very silly. ~~. ~~

Yeah, I never understood that mentality… I had a friend like that, who would start to hate even things he liked, just because they started to become more popular, and stuff. He pretty much anything that he saw as “to popular,” which was almost everything.

Yeah, I kinda liked the gag of Lyra being like a backwards-brony in a way. Don’t get why it gets so much hate on this site nowadays. (Especially from people who like other popular pony memes/fanon jokes.)

The Lyra fanon started out as Lyra is a weird thing that likes to do “Human” activities such as wearing pants. Then she was a humie. then she was obsessed with humans. At least that’s how I saw it.

Whether it makes sense or not, that’s just what the fandom came up with.
 
Perhaps in an alternate universe where things happened slightly differently, Trixie would be the human-obsessed one, as you suggested.

If you can’t see the difference between Lyra’s slouch in “Dragonshy” and Twilight’s sitting pose in “The Ticket Master”, you’re blind.
 
Yes, the human-obsessed Lyra fanon is overused (though, IMHO, occasionally funny), but it does have its origin in what was, at the time, a unique occurrence.

@LanceOmikron  
That’s about as much sense as “Trixie is into humans cause she was the first pony to run like one”

And realism in MLP? Really?

@Background Pony  
The foals isn’t great example. They weren’t setting upright un supported by something in front of them. Also Call of the Cutie was five episodes after Dragonshy. Enough time to start and establish a fanon. Derpy loving muffins had less leeway in which it could be argued that she never said “Muffins” at all.

You have to keep in mind that the fanon for Lyra wasn’t made overnight. It started out that she was a fan of humans just like we’re a fan of ponies, and it evolved from there.

Heck, even when the foals sit at the desks, they’re leaning forward like the horse in that video. It’s pretty unlike the slouching we saw Lyra doing.
