Everything bad happens to everypony sometimes. You can't avoid it with money, nor with power; trouble still befalls you. Sadness will touch your heart at some point. Is Derpy a "good" name? I don't know. All I know is that when sadness touches you, maybe even just a little bit at the end of a long hard day, that you might need something to give you comfort. And maybe you deserve it. If it comforts you to believe in a cross-eyed muffin-marked pegasus, you do it, that is your own business. Many ponies have dirty secrets. And if your dirty secret is that when you feel tired and down, you can find a reason to rejoice even for one second in the smile of Derpy Hooves peeking out from the background in MLP, well that's not such a bad secret at all.
