Description With all the hub bub going on with Derpy I decided to throw my two cents in on it:

I'm fine with the edit done to her. It's not bad at all and quite frankly if it was done the first time around every one else would have been fine as well. It's not as good as her old self but it isn't bad.

I am displeased with all the parent flipping out, I mean come one! Was Ed an insult to the mentally handicapped? No! He was a lovable oaf who had immense kindness and creativity, like Derpy. However, I can understand it and I think it's all in the name: Derpy does sound like a derogatory term for the mentally handicapped, even before I became a fan of the show and I heard that her name was Derpy I thought "Derpy? Isn't that a negative term for the mentally handicapped? That's not cool, that's not coll at all!" But I got to know her character and now know that she isn't offensive at all. if it weren't for her name everyone probably would have been fine, Hell let's just call her Ditzy Doo from now on... well on the show at least, I mean that doesn't sound offensive right? Hell, they could make a whole episode about her that would put her in a better light with those who don't know her. And hey we can still call her Derpy, right? nothing would really change. So yeah, I'm upset that people are getting mad over nothing but it's no reason for the rest of us to flip out as well. Like a wise extra terrestrial once said: [link]

Also, the sub caption is from Married with Children. if you get it then congrats your awesome in my book! If not, just look it up it won't take that long to find the answer.

I get the Married with Children thing. I remeber that only just vaguely, like the line itself, but nothing past that. Could you remind me.

MICHIGAN?!!!

Now it all makes sense! I knew it was a stupid right-wing asshole behind this. This is the same state that passed a bill that was supposed to protect gay kids from bullies after warping it into a bill that protects bullies if they bully kids based on "religious or moral convictions", e.g. the gay bashing fundies that the law was supposed to stop IN THE FIRST PLACE!

Fuck these bigoted scumbags! Forget love and tolerance because they don't deserve it!

I'm actually making the script of an episode which would at least give an explanation to the changes in her look. It's a request, but I'm glad to work with it. Also, if anybody knows how to send mail to the ones making the series, I'd like to send it too them.

*shrug* I'm not really upset how they changed her, just why. I'm not freaking out, I just believe that people's creative choices to remain as they are and it's kind of insulting that Hasbro didn't fight for the things that made fans happy. I'm not ranting, just sayin'...
