The misconception of Bronies (Fans of My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic)

As far as I've known about Bronies, there was always a misconception and misunderstanding about them.

People always thought that Bronies only exist in the United States, Very wrong. Bronies are all over the world, and getting bigger as we speak whether we like it or not, there is not stop to it.

Another common misconception is that Bronies are unemployed, Have too much time on their hands, perverts, paedophiles (Pedophiles for US people going go all ape shit on me) and have nothing better to do and people who masturbate over bestiality. While it maybe true in case of perverts for a small percentage of bronies but many to have jobs, and do not have time on their hands, Bronies are both Male and Female fans but some Female fans call themselves "Pegasisters" but either way they are all fans of the franchise "My Little Pony: Friendship is magic" And to some surprise, though some of you might not believe me, there are quite a lot of fans of the show which consider themselves bronies and are fully enlisted Armed Forces personnels of all branches, be it Army, Navy and Air Force and in America's case Coast Guards. and my evidence of Military Bronies existing is this (Please watch the whole video).

Although you may not like the idea of our Armed Force personnels being Bronies, there is NOTHING you can do about it and indeed some of them are deployed in Afghanistan and many different countries at this current moment in time.

Another fact you might want to know about Bronies is about Kiki Havivy, a 7 year old child which has Brain tumor, Kiki's mother, Ami Havivy started a donation site which pays for Kiki's treatments, she is doing fine but the Tumor is still there, the target amount is $70,000 and an amazing $46,251 in total where donated by many and Bronies, such notable people donated a huge amount of $5000 donted by SR Foxley, $3000 donated by an Anonymous Brony, $2000 By Samuel Paxton Mackey who is also a bronies, Celestia Radio who donated $1,860 and even My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic's voice actress Tara Strong  . For those who also wish to donate money for Kiki's treatment go on: http://www.giveforward.com/supportkikiscancerfund

Derpy Hooves censoreship



I know this is kinda late, but I simply could NOT just let it pass me without having some words into it, even if it was solved or not.

In January 21st 2012, Season 2 Episode 14 "The Last Roundup" A particular background pony originally know as "Derpy Hooves" was introduced into this episode with a couple of lines, not much.

The name Derpy Hooves originated on the Internet when a group of fans known as "Bronies", Spotted a Blonde maned pony with grey coat which was wall-eyed due to an animation error. Fans quickly posted about this onto the Internet, and named the pony Derpy Hooves, Studio B and Hasbro gave a nod of acknowledgement of this character by giving the pony a role in an Episode, this shocked many fans as TV producers hardly interact with fans.

Sadly and unfortunately "Soccer Moms" responded in such a negative way, saying that Derpy Hooves was offensive and intended to insult the mentally challenged and demanded correction of the eyes, and change of voice or just remove the pony from the franchise which was so popular, as a result to this Hasbro told Studio B to "correct" Derpy Hooves.

Hasbro has received 70 complaints about Derpy Hooves however a petition was made online by Bronies and other fans of all ages have signed and up to 25,000 signatures have been signed to keep Derpy Hooves the same however all the 25,000 signatures were ignored and Hasbro made Derpy Hooves into "Ditzy Doo." This cause a massive uproar in the Internet, fans of all kind, Armed Forces Personnels, Music Artists, regular fans, artists, animators and voice actors to explain that the name "Derpy" and "Derp" isn't an insult towards anyone who is Mentally Challenge.

My Rant
Derpy Hooves is NOT intended to offend anyone, it is the only first connection fans had with producers of a TV Show which many liked, by censoring Derpy Hooves is simply destroying creations of thousands. If anyone was to remove Derpy for being Stereotyping mentally challenge, than pretty much every other pony should get removed. Rainbow Dash would be stereotyping Jocks and Athletes, Apple Jack would be stereotyping Southern Americans, Rarity and Twilight Sparkle would be insulting people with OCD, Fluttershy would be offensive to Shy people and Pinkie Pie would be offensive to people with ADHD.
What is funny is removing Derpy for being "retarded" is twice as offensive than just keeping her as she is, People are forgetting that "Offensive is taken, not given" and as i recall My Little Pony has the name FRIENDSHIP IS MAGIC and the point of My Little Pony: Frienship is Magic is about Love and Tolerance as well as equality, hence despite the difference of what the Mane 6 i.e Rainbow Dash, Twilight Sparkle, Rarity, Apple Jack, Pinkie Pie and Fluttershy they all have a strong friendship and who knows Derpy Hooves could of had EXACTLY the same with every other pony


Here is a Video that just strengthens my point, Enjoy.

Wonderbolts outfit!

 So I had this idea for an Wonderbolts flight suit which obviously is based around the UK armed Forces and This Flight suit is meant to belong to the Wonderbolt's Captain Spitfire, so as Spitfire is the in charge of the wonderbolts it would seem right if she had a Squadron Leader rank slide.

The top picture is Squadron Leader Rank slides, which is equivalent to a rank of Major.
The Second picture is a Qualified Army Air Corps pilot badge, I only chose the Army Air Corps badge is because RAF's Qualified Pilot has the word "RAF" in it.
The third picture is Princess Celestia's Flag like patch
I am using as if it was a flag patch on the suit instead of having the Union Flag.
The fourth picture is the actual Flight Suit i shall be using and sewing all my badges on, amazingly it doesn't cost much at all, which is a bonus
The fifth picture is Wonderbolt badge which will go near the Army Air Corps qualified pilot badge so it's like a Qualified Wonderbolt badge.
 The sixth picture is Spitfire's cutiemark which will go on the arm.

The last picture is the Circle Wonderbolt's badge which will go on each arms on the flight suit which will be used as a Squadron logo badge.

And obviously i will be needing a serious haircut for this and luckily i already have shiny combat boots to wear.

I am a Brony, but am i proud?

About 4-5 months ago I found myself looking up My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic videos, I honestly don't know why, so i cannot explain this reason. At the time i have never watched ANY My Little Pony episodes so i couldn't call myself a legitimate Brony.

It was not until 2-3 months ago I start to watch the very first episode of My Little Pony, and within the time I was awake I found myself to have watched 11 episodes non-stop, I then released I liked My Little Pony, soon within 2 days i had finish Season 1 and 2, but obviously noticing there was no Season 3, there wasn't much for me to do, but i noticed the more MLP Music videos I've been listening to and reading Fan fictions like "My Little Dashie" .etc i knew than I was a legit Brony.

So far I have told only 2 people that I am a Brony, both of which, were strangely enough not my closest friends i have on Facebook, I have told no one in my family. I am not ashamed to be a Brony, I am just unsure whether I can be bothered to even tell people that I am a Brony, it isn't important to other people that i am a part of the "Shitty Brony blight" as the song would quote, but i figured that some of my friends have sussed it out that i am a Brony but in all honesty, if someone asked me if i was, I'd tell them truthfully.

Vinyl Scratch look

 So around last month..I have gained the urge to watch the much loved and yet much hated Series called "My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic."
I admit, it's pretty cool, than again this is my opinion, but there was a certain pony that has caught my attention TWICE in the series, which is Vinyl Scratch (AKA DJ PON-3), no one knows what she sounds like but we all know she is a DJ so the thought of dubstep and other various different music.

Through fan-made pictures and fanfics and On-line video, Vinyl is a character i can relate to through her passion for music and probably her fan-made personality.

Anyways, i love Vinyl Scratch, she is my favorite pony, i don't really care what people say about my new look, yes i am male, but still, it will be awesome. Obviously the most hardest part of the whole Vinyl Scratch look is the hair dye, as i need to get the bleaching right and the blue hair right.

At the bottom you will see some All leather converse sneaker i did indeed design them myself and the cost around £67 i am not sure how much that will be in dollars but it will be worth the money i spend and i am looking forward to putting the whole look and clothing and stuff on, if you want to find out more about my new Vinyl Scratch look just ask and i will be sure to make more updates about it and take some pictures of me with the new look!
