I would love to go into a long explaination but it is way past time for me to go to sleep. 5 hours past time in fact so you will have to do with a short statement.
For me being a brony is about living peacefully and as non-confrontationally as possible. Tolerate other people and try not to get mad. Being non-confrontational is not about giving way to everybody's demands, you can still be assertive.
More on that later. For now it is time for me to go to sleep and salvage what I can from the day ahead.
