When a dank memer tries to be not ironic or New Sincerity

 

 

 

"As another example of New Sincerity as a cultural movement, some writers have pointed to the adult fans of the Canadian/American animated television show, My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic. The show, which premiered in 2010, is designed to foster sales of Hasbro's toy line, but has attracted older teenage and adult fans outside the show's target demographic of young girls and their parents. The fans, who call themselves bronies, have been described as "internet neo-sincerity at its best", unabashedly enjoying the show and challenging the preconceived gender roles that such a show ordinarily carries.[32][33] As many of these fans are technology-savvy, the brony community have created a large number of derivative works ranging from artwork, stories, music, and video media.[33]"

 

Either you're on team dank or on team brony, your choice really.
