This is like the only forum I'm active in. It wasn't the first forum I registered to. I can't remember the other forums though.

Funnily enough, same here...except in another forum.

What is the class 'Master Student' about?
Great job, pulling off A's. :D
You major mathematics?

Yes. Mathematics is my best ability so far. I currently have Algebra 2 Honors. I could have gone to Algebra 2 college honors, but I was Freshman and was not allowed to go there at this grade, unfortunately. So here I lay, waiting for next. I can see myself get lazy and not go though.

Master Student is pretty....useless in my personal opinion. You just learn about yourself, how to take notes, and the best personality to have to pass college.

American subject names. I have no idea whatsoever...

At any rate, going for either a Master degree in physics or math. Haven't decided yet though.

Eh, everybody has different views. I'm aiming for either a Biomedical Engineer or a Physician.

I really have no experience with American colleges and high schools, but the university here is very different from our equivalent of high school.

You people are lucky. I am at the college age exactly...

Screw it, I'm taking a semester off.

Are there any pony fans online right now? The fandom is experiencing a crisis.

What sort of crisis? I'm a pony fan, I'm online, but I feel fine.

It's honestly not as big of a deal as we're probably making it, but Derpy Hooves within the show is momentarily being threatened by people who claim she is an offensive stereotype of the mentally handicapped. (Which is completely false, as many mentally disabled people have already defended "derp" and so forth.)

These people have started a petition to Hasbro demanding Derpy's voice, name, eyes and mane be changed, or for her to go away forever. I know this isnt the place for pony talk, but I figured I could at least promote the petition to keep Derpy the way she is.

I'm not much of a pony fan, but I have to admit I'm on your side here.

@Affliction Yes, it really is awful what they're trying to do. Like Raven put it, people who want things removed because someone could potentially be offended just make it worse... It ends up so that mentally disabled characters cannot even EXIST in the media and MUST be censored, which is even worse than mild stereotyping (Which Derpy does not even support in any way, she's simply clumsy and a bit ditzy.)

Derpy is the most beloved pony in the entire show! Her character promotes the friendship and tolerance morals that the show aims to convey to children in the first place, so it's extremely sad that people want to take that away.

The sad Derpy fanart that's circulating Brony websites is heartbreaking too.

This really should go to the Pony forum, but so long as there is no fights, it should be okay...


It is sad that they may change Derpy. But Hub did kinda ask fer it, with actually naming her as such.

I think they were just trying to appease the fans. I'll admit I didn't like her canon voice much, but I'll be devastated if they give into the mental disability nonsense claims...

I swear I will legitimately cry if they straighten her eyes, or worse, remove her permanently...

Well, most likely is straight up removal. Just fixing the eyes will not do anything helpful.

Why would they ever remove Derpy?

Edit: Reading is fun!

Wow, seriously? Gah, what is wrong with people!?
