Has anyone here ever actually been called out/looked at strangely for buying MLP stuff in public? By either a cashier or other customers? I've never experienced it, most cashiers don't seem to give a fuck.

Never ever. I'm even in the secret santa right now and brought a big bubble mailer envelope completely covered in stickers and hearts all over it to the counter to get it mailed out and the worker was genuinely happy about it and just said "That's so cute!" even though the recipient's name is male. Nobody cares.

It depends on the time of day. Before lunch I'm judging the shit out of you, after lunch I don't care.

You realize that little kids don't often buy their own crap, right? Pretty much all MLP merch is purchased by adults, be they with children or not

Do you think the countless dads and other adult males picking up some MLP crap for a daughter or other kid's birthday party or christmas or just a random gift get anxiety about it? No, so neither should you....unless you're literally a walking brony stereotype complete with neckbeard, cheeto fingers, and rainbow dyed hair

>>28981028
I've never gotten that from MLP, but I have from buying a Burger King kid's meal for the Pokemon toys/cards.

>>
>>28981101
dude, thats why you got to go trough the drive thru. The only thing the drive thru attendant cares about is getting you and your shit in and out. And if anyone even raises a eyebrow, well your just a father picking up takeout.

Everytime there is a McDs promotion I order a Happy Meal and eat it in the store

Gotten odd looks, but one time I laughed because the cashier saw I was alone and immediately assumed it was "to go" and seemed taken back when I said "no, for here"

The Hello Kitty ones are kind of cute, they even have Purin and you don't usually see him. I kind of want him as a memento of my short time working in this hellhole.

>>28981028
Bought a Fluttershy shirt at hot topic back in 2012.
Fucker behind the register looked at me like "Get out of my store, sicko."

I was high at the time and later discovered I had purchased a womans t-shirt. I tried it on and thought 'Hmm, I like how it hugs my hips but I don't like the low cut neck'.
>>
>>28981028
Why would someone get upset that you are buying a toy for your daughter / sister / niece?

I bought pony shit from a store for the first time. We were having a great conversation until She asked me if I needed a gift receipt and I said no. Then it went quiet.

>>28981428
Hello Kitty is great so grab that shit while you can. the old cartoon is great too, watch it if you want

Never
At a toy store they will just assume its for a child
At the flgs everybody there is into nerd shit they have no leg to stand on for thinking other people wierd the worst i would get there is your waifu a shit
At the lcs again they are not the type of people to care they might just think i have shit taste (i did keep buying them longer then i should have before deciding not to bother but friends forever #3 is still the best comic i have ever read)

I remember when pony toys were a thing back in 2012 and some of the vids went viral because people were into the "Bronies are bad and autistic" shtick not like they're any less now but you get the point
>>
>>28981028
No. Nobody give a shit what I buy.
>>
>>28981315
I like to ask which toy they have so I can avoid getting duplicates, and I think it'd be more polite to do that inside so you don't have cars waiting as the employee looks through the box. Usually the cashier doesn't think it's odd or say anything, as I'm sure they're used to seeing toy collectors.

New episode today. Will it be as good as the first or bomb like last time? I don't like how they gave the new character a speaking bit with unfunny jokes. Last episode also lacked enough straight horses

I worked for a little over a year as a Kroger cashier.

With all the shit cashiers have to deal with on the daily, some person buying an item of pony merch doesn't even get on the radar. At least, it didn't for me and I have never heard my other co-workers mention anything.

You never know. I'v been working at McDonalds for close to 7 months and they finally cleaned out some of the old stuff from the shed. They had the display for the last mlp toys they did. Ask for it for a Christmas present to my "sister". Finally my job is worth it

I don't know about the other customers but speaking as someone who has worked as a cachier I don't see why anyone working a counter would say anything.

Primarily because when you work retail you have to learn to just stop giving a shit and tune out completely. When I worked the register I didn't even remember the people I had spoken to throughout the day, I cared so little that I had forgotten all of them by the time I reached the end of my shift.

Other customers might look at people funny but in all likelihood they just assume you're buying the toys for a kid as a gift, especially around christmas.
>>
>>28981028
>cashier
Having been one before, I can tell you that you quickly learn to not let your expression change while you're judging someone.

I've seen stereotypical bronies and managed to not call them faggots or react to them in any way.
>>
>>28981028
When I worked cashier, I never even looked at what the customer was buying except to find the barcode. Unless it was something that would make for a hilarious story, I didn't give a fuck, nevermind enough to judge someone for buying a kid's toy.
