Yeah deep fired coke. We've even managed to find a way to deep fry Ice Cream. But yes most of the weirder deep fried items are only at fairs and carnivals.

....so there is.

Well thats...thats just fine. Looking at it gives me a heartattack.

Deep Fried bananas, also known by their Malay name of Goreng Pisang, are a staple snack in Singapore. You can buy some at most wet market hawker centers locally, and they are delicious.

What is?

Umm, the majority thing goes back a long time with me. You see, I always felt bad about being the minority. That's part of the reason I came to the Internet, where at least things were a little better. I figured that if I couldn't be in the majority for a lot of IRL things, I could at least be in the majority of the fandoms I'm in.

So, when I was in the metal fandom, before I listened to ANYTHING, I checked reviews to see if the majority liked it. If they did, I would go ahead and listen to it. If they didn't I would skip it. I felt pretty happy then. But then I found out I was gay, and since I had heard that forcing yourself to be straight is unhealthy, I figured that for my sake I could break my code of conformity just this once. But then something terrible happened. In 2007, I became a fan of the band Korn. The metal community frowned upon this. I was ousted out of many metal forums. For a while, I decided "OK, you know what? Fuck comforming." I thought I would be happier that way. But I wasn't. Every time somebody looked down upon me for liking what I like, it was like a knife piercing my body.

When I joined the Brony community, I was overjoyed that finally I may be able to have an opinion that is the majority opinion of the community. No more people looking down on me. But as time went on, I found out that I really didn't 100% conform. For one, I am LOVING season 2 so far, and the majority, or at least the loudest, really don't. So I figured, maybe I WOULD be happier if I just conformed. But at the same time, in the real world, most people frown upon a man liking a cartoon meant for girls. Or a man liking other men. So looks like eventually I will have to conform to their standards too. I mean, it probably will make me happier. Most men drink beer to get drunk on a regular basis, and I remember being really happy that one time I got drunk. So I think I might be onto something.

And that's how Equestria was made.

Nobody looks down on anybody for having a minority opinion in this fandom. Love and Tolerance, remember?

You're in the majority in that you enjoy the ponies, and that's all that matters here.

How is that mean spirited?

I keep seeing people put down Ashleigh Ball as the voice of Derpy in this episode, do we have confirmation on that?

Deep fried coke is just coke flavored funnel cake according to that article linked earlier. That's disappointing.

It's basically going: "Hey, all you fans who liked calling her Ditzy. FUCK YOU!!"

Finally saw the episode. How long will it be before we see "Big Mac cries a manly tear" meme?

Anyway, just like every other episode, this one made me smile. There were lots of funny moments. The only thing I can gripe about the episode is AJ leaving Ponyville. It seems a bit out of place for her to leave her farm again even if she was humiliated for not winning.

But overall, I loved this episode. Glad to see Derpy as cannon now.

You aren't ever going to happy doing what other people want you to do, AJ. You're just going to be fooling yourself. I mean yeah, you might legitimately like some of those things that other people like, and that's great. But you can't just stop liking something because other people don't - it simply doesn't work that way. you can't force yourself not to like it.

In the end true happiness comes from being true to yourself, and not being afraid of it. It doesn't matter what other people think. If you enjoy something and it doesn't hurt anyone else, then that's that, and anyone who thinks otherwise can fuck off. People are allowed to be different. People need to be different, otherwise what's the point of... well, anything? Everything in life is based off of being different in one way or another.

If something makes you happy, do it. There will always, always be someone with whom you can share that happiness. It doesn't matter if they're in the majority or not, one person is enough.

She didn't come back because of her not winning any money more than anything else

I love deep-fried bananas/bana!na fritters.

No it's not. It's making a joke on the fact that there is an inaccurate tag.

The same thing happened when in One Piece, two people were revealed to not actually be blood siblings, and the joke was someone removing "incest" tags from all the fanfics that shipped them.

Yeah, the money. I swear I saw the episode no more than 10 minutes ago. How could I forget that.

Wow, didn't think I'd get such a cool avatar from the show.

you are NEVER going to get a 100% consensus on anything! (well except maybe that Fandarel Staghelm is made of 85% Douche bag, 90% Jerkass and 75%annoying Twat)

So i have come up with derpy's official legal name.

From henceforth she will be known as Ditzy "Derpy" Hooves.

@kegisak's post: Manly Tears.

Thank you, buddy.

You know, I just realized that they named that town the way they did entirely for that "Get out of Dodge" joke near the end. And it was glorious.

Don't mention it, AJ. I'm just glad that you're feeling a bit better.
