Talk:Derpy/@comment-123.2.169.80-20120331093011

I have Asperger's Syndrome. Does that mean I'm supposed to be offended by Twilight?

I'm just saying, the way Derpy is portrayed isn't supposed to be offensive to "retarded" people, and shouldn't be interpreted as such. I recall there was an uproar over a Gary Larson cartoon in which a (cartoon) chimp called Jane Goodall a tramp - everyone said that it was really offensive - and then Ms Goodall herself said that she found the cartoon funny.

So I don't think Derpy should be interpreted as offensive to those who are mentally disabled, because leaping to conclusions without proof is offensive. That is all.
