I think today, I've actually made a friend. Kinda hard to believe, really. I was just sitting in the dining commons after yet another lecture over Stable regulations, minding my own business, when this filly comes to my table. To be honest, she really wasn't my type, so I can't say I really think of her in that way, but she's really nice. Her name's Sunfire. She didn't seem to care that I'm a hornhead and that she's a dirtpony. Not that it matters.
Ponies are equally as bad, whether they got a horn, wings, or none of the above.
It makes no difference to me. Who am I to give a fuck? If it weren't for ponies, we wouldn't have to be down in these fucking Stables. What was so Celestia-damned important that it necessitated going to war with the stripes? Yeah, yeah, I've heard the drill... "they fired the first shot." But nopony (or zebra for that matter) shoots at one another without provocation. We had to have done something that really.... really.... REALLY pissed them off.
Don't get me wrong: I'm not saying the zebras are fucking saints either. After all, it was them who dropped the megaspells on Canterlot, Cloudsdayle, and Celestia knows where else. It was the damned stripes who turned thousands of families into ash and vapor, and turned Equestria into a literal hell hole.
If anypony reads this journal (and if I find you, I'm fucking gelding you), you're probably wondering my feelings about the Ministry Mares.
Yeah. The Ministry Mares. The Elements of Harmony. Our Luna-forsaken Paragons of Fucking Virtue. Big fucking whoop. If they were so Celestia-damned great, why didn't they stop the war? I've heard the whispers: Twilight Sparkle was doing shit to ponies, Rarity was delving into forbidden magic when she wasn't burning books, Pinkie Pie fried her already addled brain on drugs to the point where she was pointing hooves at her friends, and I wouldn't be surprised if Applejack would be held on charges of war crimes if she were still alive. What about the so-called "Element of Loyalty"? I guess you can say she didn't do anything wrong, but then again, you can also say she didn't do much of anything. I mean, what the fuck is the "Ministry of Awesome" anyways?
You probably noticed I didn't talk any shit about Fluttershy. As much as I've tried (and believe me, I've tried), I can't find it in me. Every account I've heard about her is that, as much as she might've lacked in spinal fortitude, she was at least a genuine sweetheart. She actually wanted to help both the ponies and the zebras equally. She actually wanted peace. I can't fault her for that.
It doesn't hurt that she was quite the looker, too. I'm tellin' ya, if I were alive 200 hundred years ago [ERROR – CANNOT DECRYPT FILE – BAD SECTOR at 389134] Where was I? Oh yeah. Fluttershy. She's cute.
For all I know, it was probably her who gave the megaspells to the stripes. To be honest, I can't say I wouldn't have. She probably had a good reason. She probably never intended all that to happen.
I can't say the same for myself, though. As long as there are two ponies in Equestria, we'd probably kill each other. So the solution is obvious: have no more ponies in Equestria. I mean, duh. You're probably thinking I'm gonna end up some sort of mass murderer or something. I've wondered the same thing myself.
I can't say that I love everypony. In fact, I learned a word today that descibes me perfectly:
"Misanthrope."
With all the shit I've gotten from my classmates, my teachers, and the whole nine, it shouldn't be too surprising. I don't think I'm a bad colt, though. Honestly, I wouldn't hurt anypony. At least, anypony who didn't have it coming.
Not that I could cause much hurt. I'm not what anypony would call "strong". I don't have that much in the way of offensive magic, either. Shit, I can't even say a few words without tripping over my tongue.[ERROR – CANNOT DECRYPT FILE – BAD SECTOR at 756132]
So what's the deal with Sunfire? How can I know she's actually a friend? All I know is that she didn't act like she wanted anything from me other than conversation. She had no reason to be nice to me, and yet she was. She laughed at my stupid jokes, and she knew how to make me laugh. She could actually hold her end of the conversation, too.
I just hope that she never catches wind of what goes on in my head. She'd probably think I'm a monster for how I feel. I can't say what would happen if somepony were to push me too hard. If Celestia were out there listening somehow, I pray She doesn't let that happen.
I don't know what to make of her two friends. Blaze is a bitch, no two ways about it. But yet, she sometimes sticks up for me, especially when Hot Head is in one of his moods. I don't get her. Plus, I see the way she looks at me when she thinks I don't know. She acts like she likes me, but when she talks to me, she gives me a world of shit. She's not bad looking, I must admit. She's got a plot that don't quit, that's for sure. Plus, what can I say? I like 'em big.
Starlight's another story. She's hot. Smoking hot. I've been trying to get up the nerve to talk to her. Or at least send her a note to her Pip-Buck. I don't know if she likes me like that, though. I don't even know if she likes me at all. Plus I know Blaze has a jealousy streak.
I just don't know. I better close this out before I depress myself.
At the very least, it seems I have a friend. It's actually kinda nice to know that you're not alone in the world.~MESSAGE TRUNCATED~................................MESSAGE DELETED!

You've just met Kilo Byte. Don't worry; he's not THAT much of a jerk :P.
