Description
When I learned that the "First Half" of Season Five of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magicwas fully on the air (and, that the SECOND half would be aired much, MUCH later.)
I decided to go ahead, and check the episodes out via my usual MLP Ep source.
Obviously, the first episode that I checked was the highly anticipated 100th Episode
(amusingly named "Slice of Life", which is a category type on FIMFiction.)
This episode focused primarily on certain Background Ponies
(the Mane Six appeared, but in the background, and NOT really important to the episode's plot.)
THIS episode's "Mane Six", however is:
Derpy (renamed "Muffin"),
Doctor Whooves (called simply "Doctor", here)
Lyra Heartstrings (called just "Lyra"),
Bon Bon (or, "SECRET AGENT SWEETIE DROPS"),
Vinyl Scratch,
and, Octavia Melody.
For this motivational, the focus is Derpy and Doctor Whooves.
whose character arcs (more or less) made the fan pairing of them Sorta/Kinda canon.
YEAH, there was no real romance, I know. BUT, there is some mutual attraction between them in this episode
(Doctor Whooves WAS the first pony Derpy went to when she REALLY messed up at the start of the episode.)
Hey, we can DREAM, can't we?

I think MANY fans nearly went "Classic Daffy Duck" over 'Episode 100'
Not just over DerpyxDoctor, but also with Lyra and Bon Bon's "friendship",
and, Vinyl and Octavia being roommates.
there was much "Fangasm's"

I personally ship all 3, so the episode was very exciting for me.

Eeyup, it's totally canon. Eat your heart out, Doctor Whooves and Assistant.

At least now we know there's a reason for Lyra/bonbon being "friends".. They are both possibly a little nuts... It was a close to canon as we will most likely ever be given... At least until 200 episode.. If they make one..LOL.. But Muffin? Seriously Hasbro?.. That will go down in brony history as the lamest attempt to rename a pony.... Facehoof!

Yeah, It sure is funny how they IMPLIED romance, without actually confirming it outright (take that censorship)
I don't think they'll do this again on the 200th episode.
there is just something special about the number "100", 200 is just another number.
MAYBE if we are lucky (or, at least ask..ALOT) they'll do more episodes of BG characters in the near future.

Definitely one of my favorite MLP episodes, but yeah I noticed that, and since I'm a DerpyxDoctor Whooves supporter it made me happy.

Alot of content in SoL made the fan happy...EXECPT for one thing: Vinyl Scratch NEVER said a single word in the episode
(Sheesh, even in the 100th Background Pony centric episode, she is STILL without a voice!)

Yeah, but she was still responsible for the most awesome part of the episode.

Well Goofy was created at a time where political correctness was unheard of, just sayin.
(also is Ditzy Doo really as offensive as Derpy? Come on, Hasbro. )

What can we say: Censorship.
First they changed her voice, THEN they removed her completely for awhile.
NOW, they've given her a pretty simple, lackluster name as they no doubt believe her fan name is "too offensive"
(If "Derpy" is an offensive name, then HOW in the hell has Disney gotten away with their "Goofy" character for so long!?)
Oh, I wonder what's the NEXT stupid thing they'll do!?: "fix" her eyes?
for their sakes, they'd better NOT do that.
or, they'll find out just what the Frankenstein Monster felt when the villagers went after him with Torches and Pitchforks.

"If 'Derpy' is an offensive name, then HOW in the hell has Disney gotten away with their 'Goofy' character for so long!?"
Okay. Apparently I have to explain this. A-FUCKIN'-GAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Goofy is male. So portraying him as an idiot and giving him a name that indirectly means "retard" is not only acceptable, it's required by law.
Derpy is female. So portraying her as an idiot and giving her a name that indirectly means "retard" is demeaning to ALL women, and so cannot be permitted.
Again, read my comment signature "As long as it’s directed against men, sexism is called “freedom of speech.” This is an example of what I'm talking about.

While you make a compelling argument, I would advise you "turn down the 'tude a notch."
