I have to admit, this is really driving me batty. Recently the media has discovered that the My Little Pony community has been making custom pony creations.
I am all for the media discovering this. Heck, it only took them 25 years to notice that we were doing stuff like this so I guess I should just be happy for the exposure.
But must they overlay their own words over something there was already a perfect good name for.
They aren’t My Little Pony mash-ups.
They aren’t modded My Little Ponies.
They aren’t My Little Pony mods either.
They are customs. Custom My Little Ponies. Is this so hard, people?
Is this driving anyone else as nuts as it is driving me?

So I have been on an insane publicity tour for my other blog, The Whine Seller, but it is somewhat inevitable that some of the interviews have focused on My Little Pony.
Here is a rather extensive interview I did over at Collector’s Quest that I think some of my fellow collectors would enjoy all about how I got started with My Little Pony collecting.
On a side note, Collector’s Quest is a great site for showing off your collection if you are looking for a place to do that.

If you were dying for a ridiculous over thought out but very funny analysis of My Little Pony: The Movie, I highly recommend The Smooze: Anatomy of a My Little Pony Villain from Overthinking It.
Sample quote:
Considering how many happy woodland creatures are trying to erect crude barricades before being swept aside and murdered by this stuff, My Little Pony: The Movie probably rocked 1986 with a higher death toll than Top Gun, Platoon and Aliens put together.
Enjoy! (But consider yourself warned. It is really long.)
