And bought her. xD I alsosometimes wear pins or stuff on bags, and I have a few primark and h&m pony clothing items. other than that, it's not really too obvious until you enter my house xD I have all my army ponies displayed in the middle of my living room and in case someone is visiting that doesn't know I collect I just go 'oh, yeah, that's 1/3rd of my MLP collection. I collect ponies'.I just imagined you executing an amazing leap over the heads of several customers, before doing perfect pirouettes all the way up to the cash register with pony in hand.Haha, I like to imagine it like that but it probably looked more like"PONY!!!"visitors can't see pics , please register or login

i used to be quite embarassed about shopping for toys, especially by myself, but ive all about gotten over it. i used to care a lot about how the store ppl thought about me and what i bought, but then i got a job working retail and now i understand that they just couldnt care less. Adults buy toys all the time. wether it be for themselves, or for their kid, or whatever, if they dont tell me i dont care and i dont assume anything about them. its just one more customer out of a million. ive lately being trying my hardest to get over my fear of FILMING in the toy section, so i can start toy vlogging. while checking out buying tons of toys is one thing, i sometimes feel like pointing cameras at all the toys is different. but, with this day and age and how many toy channels there are on youtube, i feel more and more like they wouldnt care about that either.
Maybe it's been said but I think cashiers ask "is that for your daughter/sister" ... etc. because they want to make themselves feel better - for whatever reason they have an insecurity about it. I don't take it personal and half the time I say it's for me and half the time I don't - depending on my mood.I just figure they see a guy in his 30s buying a pony and they feel unsure about it so internally they tell themselves a story and then ask. Not my problem but either way I try to respond cheerfully And positively.Working in retail is tough and annoying, especially interacting face to face and I genuinely have empathy for that. EditAnd let's be honest: How good is your Poker Face? If I'm buying ponies ... I've just made a conquest!!! I'm gonna keep it at arms distance or closer, I'm gonna be reading the box, look at accessories (if it's new), the endorphins are running.On the other hand if I was REALLY buying for a nephew , I'd toss that WWE figure (Noah Fence) on the belt and peruse the candy shelf for Caramel M&Ms.So it's probably obvious we got that pony for ourselves anyway.

So today was the first day of my new job working at the thrift store where I hunt for ponies. I confirmed today it's OK to wear a T shirt and printed is ok. So...even though there's a uniform vest that covers much of it, I will be sure to wear pony T shirts that stick out a little under the vest. I think I'm going to wear some pony pins on the vest too maybe; I don't see any rule against it.I also got to use my Pinky/Twily/Dash soup thermos for the first time but didn't have any company for lunch so it went unobserved. All the staff there already know I'm a pony nut so it's like coming out or anything but still, I'm going to revel in being pony-branded at work.I got me some G1 looking at ponies in Target pics yesterday, and no one even seemed to notice I was setting up stuff all over the floor to take pictures. I wanted to get pics at Walmart too but the pony selection at the one I went to is bad so I'll try again at the other walmart near my other job.
That's it, I'm moving to Canada.Do they accept Trump refugees?And thankses for the congratses
I...was joking, but now I'm going to do a little research...
