Description This is me bucking a trend. Cos it seems the only time Derpy isn't obsessing over muffins, she's delivering letters or adventuring with the good Doctor. I don't dislike people for doing it, I just feel there needs to be a bit more variety.

Plus, she only said "Muffins" once

I know, but the point was that she herself hasn't expressed a rabid obsession over them. All we really know is that she (like most of the ponies at the cake shop) likes muffins

It isn't the amount of times she said muffins, but the sheer, unmitigated passion that forced the words from her mouth.

That and what tiny canon fragments there are of her character have been stretched and steamrolled prety damn far.

CatIron In reply to CoffeeGrunt [2011-08-06 22:22:57 +0000 UTC]

This is true. It's understandable (and to the fandom's credit, it came up with her being a delivery pony, and the doctor's wife), but it's still a bit annoying when she goes gaga over the mention of the word.

Depends on the fic, Of Mares and Magic did her character very well...until the author drove a knife into the fic's heart in chapter eleven, then twisted it in the apology epilogue.

Sometimes she's taking care of Dinky when she's not Obsessing over muffins. I do agree that the muffins thing has probably been overdone, and I prefer pictures of her with Dinky.

What I'd love to see, is the writers trolling fans next season, by writing it so she's obsessed with cookies.

>Plus, she only said "Muffins" once<

-And then over 25M people liked her, and decided that 'muffins' were her favorite treat.

And, ''favorite'' doesn't mean ''absolute exclusive'', mind you...
She can like other things, while still ''prefering'' a good and warm muffin over other things, when the occasion present itself.

(Plus, it's the adorable 'nickname' of her equaly adorable fan-made-given daughter, Dinky. )

CatIron In reply to Nova225 [2011-08-06 00:44:40 +0000 UTC]

But when was the last time you saw her eating something that wasn't muffins?

Point is, fans pounced on her one spoken word, deciding for her that muffins were her favourite, and then that was it. It's practically considered to be out-of-character for her to be eating something other than muffins.

Really, I'm just tired of it. I don't dislike people for doing muffin pictures, but it's just become a worn out joke for me. I feel the same way about "20% cooler" and "10 seconds flat"

Nova225 In reply to CatIron [2011-08-06 01:08:06 +0000 UTC]

A ''meme'' ? A ''joke'' ?

Meh... Seems like a rather 'empty' way to see it ?
It's much more complexe than that.

The best way to -see- Ditzy's 'muffins' is as an emblematic item for her, not as mandatory object to be with her at all time.

By this, I mean that it's for her, what books are for Twilight. Books don't define Twilight, as muffins don't define Ditzy, BUT! they are items that people and fans WILL associate with them, and so they will tend to be close to them.

Really, the only difference between (some exemples) Twilight-Books / Luna-Moon / Celestia-Sun... is that Ditzy and her muffins are both fan-created, given to her rather than pre-owned like for Twilight-Books.

Variety is good, yes, but muffins will always be the (food)emblem of Ditzy.

They put her with the Doctor because his last name is Whoof and her last name is Hooves. That's it.
