I want to give every sad brony and pegasster a hug and tell them it’s going to be alright.

As a Brony with mental disabilities I find Derpy to be inspirational. The fact that she can keep going after a mistake, the fact that she can get up and keep smiling gives me hope. 

What offends me is when others treat me like someone who cant decide for myself what offends me and claims that Derpy is offensive when she is not, she’s an inspiration. 

Please keep smiling Derpy Hooves.

I am a huge brony, but since I’m home schooled I still don’t have any brony friends to hang out with. It makes me really sad, and a little jealous when I see everyone having fun together.

I hate it when people think that endlessly spamming memes makes them a fan of the show. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying you have to be some beloved content producer, as long as you honestly love the show then you’re a fan. However it seems so many people take to forums and post things like “20% Kewler! lOL Im such a bronie!” It really fucks me off. 

I’m not sure if this is true, but I feel like some bronies take Pinkie Pie for granted because she annoys them with her overly buoyant nature. When really I think Pinkie Pie is probably the smartest pony along with Twilight. People may gasp and think this is crazy, but Pinkie has not only defied the laws of physics, but also some stereotypes about how people actually perceive intelligence. When people think of someone like Pinkie Pie they think that someone like her isn’t too smart or wouldn’t be interested in at the prospect of being smart. In the second episode of Friendship is Magic, when Twilight and the others are surrounded by those trees, and Pinkie just laughs it off and goes into her song about facing your fears. Or in Swarm of the Century, when Twilight and the gang basically dismissed Pinkie for just being off the wall as usual. And she proved them wrong, when she in fact knew what the creatures were and was able to get rid of them with no fuss (more or less). And then in Luna Eclipsed, when she kept screaming and running away from NIGHTMA-ahem, I mean Luna. When Twilight confronted her about this, she brushed it off saying, “Pssh. I know that. Sheesh, Twilight, I’m as big as her how’s she gonna gobble me up?” and then with the, “Sometimes it’s just REALLY fun to be scared!” Leading Twilight to come up with the solution to Luna’s dilemma. In a Friend in Deed, when Pinkie goes through that song saying how much it gives her joy just to go out of her way to make other smile, even if it is a bit random. It really was what Twilight said, “Pinkie Pie, you’re a genius!” But, I think Pinkie is more wise, actually. She knows things, but she prefers to keep to what she feels is more important. There’s this quote from a really old movie (Harvey), that I feel applies to Pinkie: “Years ago, my mother used to say to me, ‘In this world, Elwood, you can be oh so so smart or oh so pleasant.’ Well, for years I was smart… I recommend pleasant. You may quote me.” Pinkie is smart, but she also recognizes that to be kind and pleasant is to ultimately be intelligent

personally, as both a brony and a huge power puff fan, i think that if the internet was more accessible and/or powerful ten years ago or something, the power puff girls would have the same kind of colossal fan base that MLP has.  

i also can’t help but look at all the similarities. the episodes “hearts and hooves day” and “putting your hoof down” where inspired by the power puff episodes “keen on Keane” and “bubblevicious”. the mane 6 and the CMC are also in one way or another were inspired by the girls themselves and the humor and over all tune is very similar.
