Some Bronies are faintly irritating in the same way that a lot of new fans are - they don't realise that fandoms have existed for decades, and while fanfic, fanvids, art, headcannon, etc., is new to them, plenty of other fans have seen this before. (And no, I don't want to hear about their OC. Ever.) Also, a lot of them have zero respect for collectors of the toys (Gens 1-3), and think we're idiots because we collect toys for cartoons that are, to be fair but blunt, shallow marketing tools with no good message... but that's hardly exclusive to Bronies. In any fandom that's had a reboot or two, there are always going to be fans of a certain iteration that aren't entirely aware or respectful of what's come before or after.

But "fucking weird"? Not particularly. Anyone who's gently perused fandom_wank back in the day can find examples of genuinely odd fans in almost every fandom (snapewives, anyone?), to tar everyone with that same odd brush would make most of us "fucking weird" too.

Live and let live, OP.
