Someone needs to stop locking these doors!
I don't see him.
(Antony C) Are you sure he's supposed to be here?
(KP) Yes. Maybe? I was, told things by people.
(Antony C) And you're trusting some obscure random things you heard in the hallway?
(KP) I hate you.
(Antony C) Huh? Do you know how much trouble I had to go through to get the marching band here?
(Fluttershy) We're charging you by the hour.
Fine I'll figure it out! Muhahahaha!
Nevermind

That's all folks.
Thats gonna be hard to top but lets try anyway
Wooo.
But whatever. I wanna do this part because, you know what?
I'm frustrated. No one gets it.
No one gets why I respect John De Lancie as much as humanly possible.
Sure, some assume that just because I love discord and his character
from an analytical standpoint that its somewhat given that I like the guy who voices him.
Duh right? But no, thats not the case.
No. No! I will school you internet, in why John De Lancie is awesome despite voicing Discord.
So, it's no secret that Discord is my favourite character for a number of reasons.
But in order to make this case as unbiased as possible
we're just gonna hide this information at the bottom of the ocean.
Forget about it now. Just, just forget about it for a little while.
Ok internet? Ok?
This is why John De Lancie is awesome!
If there's something that proves I could never ever be an actor then Star Trek's weird situations are that proof.
For example captain Picard, his crew and Q are lost in a forest in the 12th century, as Robin Hood characters.
But, weren't they just on a ship dealing with archaeological findings.
Or the time Q and Janeway were stuck in a continuum war but somehow they're in the middle of a civil war. Wait. What?
But anyone who can make this scene somewhat work has my eternal respect.
[Sigh] I was good wasn't I?
And if you still need more proof then take a look at this clip I found.
I got a call from my agent saying that you have a, a job.
and I read the material, It was very good.
I went in, I knocked it off
And completely forgot about it.
So let me get this straight.
John De Lancie went into his role, with little to no recollection of his character.
How do you do these things that you do I don't understand!
Also, if that wasnt enough, were you guys even paying attention to the song
that I painstakingly sang a little while ago?
Man, you kids these days. Can't even remember five minutes ago. I swear.
And another thing.
He's like everywhere doing not only interviews for conventions and junk.
But spending a ridiculous amount of time participating in fan-targeted media.
For example do you know how many interviews he's done for just the brony media alone?
Like. A lot. I know. I had to watch most of them in preparation for this.
Theres a lot and leave it at that.
And then he did this nifty student film that, I'm pretty sure he volunteered to do.
Unless....
John, did you even read this contract?
It says you're going to be paid in butter.
That explains a lot.
He also let the Brony clubhouse in his house, to do an interview.
Who does that?
Also, when Lyle wrote to him when he was concerned about his conservative father,
he meets Lyle's parents and personally walks them into the convention.
Again, who does that?
He also bribes people into his house to see the documentary. Which I think is the funniest thing ever.
In my own home, I've done this now, four times.
In my house you get the movie and a complimentary dinner.
Also this
(John) Are you having a good time?
(The Cakes) Yes,were having a great time.
(John) Uh, I love your outfits.
You just happened to walk of the street right?
(The Cakes) Yea. Wow its like an honour to meet you.
(John) Alright, well enjoy yourself.
(The Cakes) Thank you very much
Bye. It's John De Lancie!
I would have been totally cool in that situation.
Oh, this is gonna be fun!
[Tapping]
Now, hit it!
Always like to keep my audience riveted!
But, you know what? Those aren't even the best examples.
This story I found is.
(male narrator) Uh. I went to Toronto Comicon.
At I believe the end of March.
And it just so happened that
one, Mr John De Lancie, was a guest there.
So I decided I totally wanted something,
with discord on it, signed by him!
I went searching through my image folders
and I found a fantastic piece of art by an artist of the name 'iopichio'
And I thought, this is fantastic!
It's got Discord and Celestia face to face.
Celestia's looking all pissed and I'm like "Yea this is the perfect Picture!"
I'm totally going to get this signed.
So I take it, and I get it printed off on a nice piece of glossy paper.
It looks great and I go to the convention.
I get to the convention and I'm standing in line.
There's like 2 people in front of me.
Waiting to talk to John De Lancie
and as I'm getting closer, I'm looking at the picture and I happen to spy something in the picture that looks a little suggestive.
But I think to myself, no, no no, don't worry about it John De Lancie is a professional.
So I get up there and hand him the picture well I introduce myself,
you know, I've been watching Star Trek since I was a kid loved you as Q
but ah, as of late I've been watching something else you've been in.
And I handed him the picture and he's all 'Oh look at that' just a second.
and he waves the girl that was in line ahead of me back
She comes up and he says, 'Remember that I told you I was doing voices in cartoons?'
She says 'Yea' He says 'Well this is the character I was playing.'
and he holds the picture up. He points to Discord and He's says
this is gluey, I mean Discord.
She kind of nods her head and she says
'It looks kind of like you.' He turns around and says
'What part of this looks like me?'
and she looks all nervous right at me and she's like 'What do I say?'
and I just kind of stroke my beard and she's like 'Yeah! Yeah, facial hair. That's it, that's it.'
He looks at it and he's like 'No!' He was like, full scruff.
'Yea, Yea facial hair,facial hair' He's like 'No, No'
She walks away and he puts the picture down on the table and he grabs his pen
and he's like 'So you want me to sign this?' and I said Yes.
He's like ok,
puts the pen, and he's just about to touch the paper
and then he lifts is away from the paper and puts it down and picks it up and says.
'What is that?!' And hand to forehead I'm just like, oh my God
He's like 'What is this?!' I'm like "Its not what you think"
and he's like 'Well it kind of looks like' and I'm like 'I know what it looks like'
It's his tail wrapping around behind Celestia coming up in front, He's like
'Really?' I'm like 'Yes, really.' He's like 'I don't know. I wonder if anybody else sees this?'
So he turns to this left where one Miss Nicole De Boer is sitting
Nicole De Boer being the actress that plays as Ezri Dax in 'Deep Space Nine'
And he says 'Nicky come here!'
She stands up, walks towards his table he's like 'Look at this!'
and she looks at it and it doesn't even take a split second,
she's like 'Oh my god what is that?!' and I am just beat red at this point.
and John is chuckling He's like 'Yeah.'
and he says 'We were discussing earlier about apparently they modeled Discord after me.
But I think this is the only part they got right.'
Nicole give him a 'Yea shut up' kind of look and she walks back to her table
He's like 'I think that's what this is!' I'm like 'Thats not what it is!' Well he's like 'Lets check again.'
And he stars flagging down con staff.
He's like 'Looks at this! Look at this! This is the only part of Discord they modeled after me'
The con staff are just like, half of them are laughing
He finally stops showing is to everybody that will stop for ten seconds
and puts it down on the table and, all chuckling all the while, grabs his pen and is like
'Where would you like me to sign?'
I'm like 'Where ever the [beep] you want to.'
And he's like 'Ok!' So he signs right on the top of the big blue penis.
So there you are sir, you have now heard the story of getting John De Lancie to sign a big blue penis.
John De Lancie is the biggest troll I've ever met!
Ok, I get it..that was really funny, alright?
You know? The thing with the wing. It was good, yeah.
Good times, man.
Good times.
Wait that just happened, like, two minutes ago.
More like bad memories. Two minutes. Seriously?
But, I think it's time I wrap up with the funny business and move on to something else.
And I think this might be hard.
I'll do my best.
Well...
This part...This part.
I think...I think I need to open up about something.
Like why I decided to take on this mammoth of a project.
When this was released, I felt really disappointed.
But I need to take a different approach to this and talk to someone else about it.
Hi John! My name is Rachael and I'm sure you're probably really confused about what you just saw.
Even more so depending on how you got it.
But erm that was just me and my team's way of saying thank you.
I know the documentary kind of got murky with the pirating
and all the other issues and I just,felt like I just had to do something.
So that was my kind of gift to you.
I don't know if you can see this but i'm really nervous about talking and speaking on camera
but I'm trying to keep my cool. It's very hard.
I will say that, without Discord I probably wouldn't have given the show a chance.
And now that I've actually watched the show,
I've built this big community of people and fans and its weird for me to think about but at the same time,
I really can't imagine my life without it.
So I just wanted to thank you for kind of inadvertently giving me that gift
and that was probably part of the reason why I felt like I had to do this.
Thats all I really wanted to say.
Thank you so much.
Thanks John!
Thank you, John De Lancie!
Thank you John De Lancie
Thank you John
Live prong and losper!
Or, something, like that.
I've just slapped myself in the face four times, I hope you're happy.
