I have a confession to make. Are you seated comfortably?
Good. Now, deep breath. In, out. Relax. Ready?

My husband and I love My Little Pony.

| And you have. |
Yes, yes, I know. Full grown adults watch a show made for
little kids. You know what else? Neither us really gives a fat rat’s ass what
anyone thinks. MLP is a great show! It teaches moral lessons and has laugh out
loud funny moments and lovable characters you genuinely come to care for. In
short, it is awesome.
We have always loved animation, no matter the intended
audience. From the Backyardagins to Rick and Morty, we have tons of cartoons we
just adore. We go and watch animated films in the theatre. We wait for new
seasons of shows to hit Netflix. We even force some shows on our friends. We
don’t care about age range or target audiences. We just watch what we love.

The hatred for MLP confuzzles me. No one bats an eye when we
say we watch the Justice League or the Regular Show or Adventure time. But why
is it when you say you like MLP, everyone has a conniption fit? It’s the name, isn’t
it? If it was called Pony Land, or maybe Pony Time, or something like that no
one would care. But My Little Pony makes even me cringe when I say it aloud.

| Damn straight! |
I’ll tell you what, when you get done sniggering at me,
maybe you can give the show a chance. The first four seasons are on Netflix. Go
on. I dare you. And don’t watch it with a judgmental eye. Just relax and enjoy
it like you would any other show. It will take a few episodes to hook you in,
but it will.
And then you too will know that friendship is magic.
See you ponies later, taters,
Tonia
