CONTRIBUTORS Stranger in a Strange Land: A My Little Pony Virgin Goes to a Brony Convention Everypony have fun tonight! by Eris Walsh Thursday, September 25th 2014 at 6:00 pm September 20-21 New Orleans, LA Confession: I have not watched My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. To be fair, I'm pretty sure I watched the original series as a child, but I have no recollection of the show itself. I do, however, have vivid memories of my Brush 'N Grow Pony doll. It was a pony with a tail that you could make "grow" by pulling on it, and then retract by twisting the pony's head from side to side. Essentially, as a child, I was taught that you could make a horse's tail longer by yanking on it, or shorter by snapping its neck repeatedly. The neck mechanism even made a horrific ratcheting noise that sounded eerily like bones shattering. I was pretty twisted as a kid, so this was naturally my favorite thing ever. I wore the thing out until the ratchet mechanism finally broke and I was left with a long-tailed pony with an odd bend in its neck. I digress. The point is, if anything, I've been indifferent toward My Little Pony as an adult. Then I heard there was a convention in town called DerpyCon South. That name is magical. I needed DerpyCon South to be something awesome; something worthy of a name that brilliant. Lucky for me, DerpyCon South turned out the be a brony convention, and I immediately decided that trial by fire was clearly the most logical way to introduce myself to the fandom. I honestly did not know what to expect, but my hopes were high that it would at least be interesting

Is this becoming a thing now?
