That was it. I was now determined to find out what it was all about. First I know that Bronies, people who actually like the show My Little Pony, exist. Then I realize that I myself am watching the show. What could be so good about it! I had to find out.

I went to the gold mine of all information. The internet. I searched up the term Brony. What I first saw was an entry in the Urban Dictionary but I already knew everything it had to say. The second was a friendship is magic fandom entry on Wikipedia. The site's never that credible but I figured I could give it a shot. I read almost the entire article which took a while and turned out it was all for nothing because it was still everything I knew. It explained what a Brony is but not why Bronies exist. I scrolled down the Google search page and found an entry on Know Your Meme – the same people who created the video I saw on Bronies.

I read it and found that there was fan created things. In the music part, the first video it listed was one called "Eurobeat Brony - Discord (The Living Tombstone's Remix)". A song about Discord. I had to hear this. I listened to the whole thing and by the end I was already singing along to the chorus. That was a freaking awesome song. I had to know more.

After more searching, I found that many memes were started off of the show like Trollestia and the Shrugpony which were both very funny in different situations. Now I tried searching up "My Little Pony Fan Art" and clicked on the second result which brought me to a wikia page for it. I was flooded with the information I wanted now. Games, music, literature, videos. Everything inspired by the show. I browsed through lots and I found that one of the fanfictions was especially popular.

It was called My Little Dashie, by ROBCakeran53. I proceeded to reading it. It was a story about a guy who had a terrible life but then one day found Rainbow Dash as a little filly. He took care of her for 15 years and then Princess Celestia came to take her back. The ending was so incredibly emotional that I was actually crying. I didn't know how it was possible for me to cry at something pony related but I was. I never cried at real life events yet I was crying at this. Something was up. Someone writing something this good couldn't just be some fat guy sitting at a computer watching ponies all day. Maybe it wasn't so bad to be a Brony after all.

I looked down at the floor and started thinking about what to do. Everything in my life had pointed to steering clear of things that weren't right or normal. But then again, what was normal? I could be a Brony but at the same time I couldn't and it would make no difference. Yet, would I be satisfied? Even with everything I knew, I still needed to know one more thing.

I searched up "Becoming A Brony". I found many results from sites like Yahoo Answers and Wiki Answers. All from people who wanted answers to the questions I did. I guess that this time, not even the internet knew. And if the internet didn't know, then I was certain there was nothing in the universe that could answer my question. I would have to go with my gut this time. Discord may be a good character but My Little Pony was still My Little Pony. It was still a show for girls. I turned off my computer, went to my room and turned on the television. I put the On Demand section on. Sure it was My Little Pony. Sure it was meant for girls. But I liked it. I liked My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic and I am a Brony.
