Episode 5 tomorrow :D

Yep.

..... new episode tomorrow.

So, bronies made the front page of the Wall Street Journal.

...

...

Suddenly I'm glad I told my parents about this already. (They're fine with it, by the way.)

Eeyup.

If my parents find out they would propably don't care about this. For them its propably another cartoon what I watching.

What does Wall Street Journal have to say, exactly?

Bronies exist, basically.

They stay neutral about the whole phenomenon.

Still better than Fox News.

I think that the fact that our existence is acknowledged is already an advance in and of itself.

I hate to bring up the names again, but I've just realized how silly it is to make a fuss over it. Not because of canon or Daisy/Flower Wishes or such... but because of Ditzy Doo.

Ditzy Doo isn't a name that came from fans, its said aloud in the show and Lauren said they might use Derpy's design for Ditzy. Most fans as far as I can tell are alright with Ditzy Doo possibly being her canon name (yes Death Cloud, we know you're an exception :P).

Was there a big fuss over Ditzy Doo back when Lauren first made that comment about it? I joined the herd several episodes after Winter Wrap Up, so I wouldn't really know..

I-I'm such a foal ;_;

I should have checked the newspaper schedules! Okto is also airing Ponies!

Idea: When you can tell the names of these six characters, you get your Brony Badge.

DJ-PON 3, Derpy Hooves, Doctor Hooves, Octavia, Lyra, and Bon Bon.

Yeah, of courses we all know them, but just as a test for newbies.

(PS. The DJ's birth name is Vinyl Scratch. :P)

D'oh!

I think that one is Doctor Whooves, not Hooves. The Doctor Who joke is missing if "hooves" is spelled correctly.

Derpy Hooves, Doctor Whoof (I prefer Whoof over Whooves), Lyra, Bon Bon, DJ-Pon3/Vinyl Scratch.

I wish to see episode about them.

I just rewatched pilot episodes, I still love them, and they are still one of my favorites.

It is not Doctor Whoof, Whooves, or any variation of the pun. It is simply "The Doctor"

The real answer, of course, is that he has no name.

I've been through the desert with him, once. It felt good to be out of the rain.

In my head canon ponies use word "whoof" instead "who" some times.

Were is Carrot Top?

I was looking at the comments on that wall street article. They are a wide range of opinions there, But this one is... Intresting...

"It's bad enough that grown men watch this show, it's even worse that they have no shame about their childish fixation and go so far as to join clubs, go to conventions, and allow major newspapers to quote them using their real names. I realize that some people feel overwhelmed by the modern world and so retreat into childish pastimes, and that the innocence of a children's cartoon show might appeal to such a person, but at least have the strength of character to recognize this as a personal flaw. I can only imagine how many younger brothers, nieces, etc. there are out there who are absolutely disgusted seeing their older relatives being obsessed with this stuff. Make no mistake, these guys know what they do is shameful, that's why they're so quick to circle the wagons and lash out at anyone who points out what they know to be true."

Wow... The majority of comments are positive (or at least neutral) though, Don't worry. This one was just special. A better comment is this one.

"I'm reading the comment thread accompanying this article, and seeing the usual tired comments about 'kids these days' 'sex fetishists' etc. You're obviously not seeing what I see. You're reading this article and seeing a story about a bunch of adults going crazy over a kid's show. I'm reading this article and seeing a story about community organizers, an event planner who in less than three months and with almost zero budget put together an event that attracted 300 people from around the world, and the webmaster of a site that generates over 200, 000 hits A DAY of web traffic. Make fun of these people? Insult them? I want to know where I can HIRE them!"

I like him.

I hope that they leave Derpy Hooves officially unnamed.

There is pony Slender Man but anybrony saw pony version of Rake?
