You want shtuff about me? : 3

I'm a relatively long-time brony. I joined the bandwagon after the first season ended but before the second season began, mainly due to how many artists I was following on dA at the time were drawing ponies. I was curious. I visited YouTube. I watched. I conquered (LOL literature joke).

The Mane Six, Ranked
How do I rate the Mane Six? Well, here they are, starting with my personal favorite of the group:

1.) Twilight Sparkle

Yes, the main character is my favorite. Why? She's nerdy. That goes a long way with me, all right? She loves books, she's a bit OCD, and she's super smart. I don't care if it's unfair, she's my favorite.

2.) Rainbow Dash

20% cooler and all that nonsense. I've always had a soft spot for hoarsely-voiced tomboys, and R.D. certainly fits the bill. Between her quest for perpetual coolness and brash attitude, I quite like her.

3.) Fluttershy

I've always had a thing for shy girls who often hide behind their hair - probably beginning in grade school - so Fluttershy ranks high on my list. She's just so demure and sweet. I want to take her home.

4.) Applejack

Being country-raised, I can relate to Applejack better than most of the other Mane Six. I also enjoy all of her country-sounding songs and music cues, even though I hate country music. It's a mystery.

5.) Pinkie Pie

Despite her perpetual happiness, Pinkie Pie never stuck with me much. I'm not super-hyper-spastic like she is, and I guess that just didn't go over well for me in the beginning. I do enjoy her as a character now, I just like others better. : 3

6.) Rarity

From a personal perspective, I relate to Rarity the least. I hate the snobbish, uppercrusty crowd she aspires to fit in with, I don't care for clothes, and I despite the socialite accent she has. However, she does have moments where I like her, I just don't like her as a character as much as the others.

Other Favorites
I do enjoy other ponies besides the Mane Six. In no particular order, here are some of my background/minor character favorites:
 * Spike
 * Big Mac
 * Sweetie Drops and Lyra Heartstrings
 * Vinyl Scratch and Octavia
 * Princess Luna
 * Shining Armor
