** Rainbow Dash gives one to the rest of Ponyville, after they try to teach her a lesson, by tricking her into [[DisappropriateRetribution thinking she turned everyone she cared about into zombies.]]

* DeathByAdaptation: Gladmane or "Pelvis" as the DWK calls him, is stated to have committed suicide off-screen after, his EngineeredPublicConfession ''Viva Las Pegasus'' ruined his scam and his destroyed his carer.

** In a surprising move, this is ''not'' played for laughs in the Rock Solid Friendship video, where Maud almost lets a Quarray Eel eat her, after becoming friends with Starlight made her realize she was deluding herself by cutting herself off from everypony but rocksand yet she still couldn't bring herself to try and give real ponies other a chance.

* HeroicComedicSociopath: Twilight, to an extent, as she's quick to threaten bodily harm when annoyed that others aren't taking her frienship lessons to heart. DWK maintains that she just knows the value of a good bitchslap when people are acting up.

* AffectionateNickname: The Narrator has these for several of the characters, like Twiggles, Twiggy, or Twigs for Twilight, Glimmy/Glim for Starlight, Ponkers for Pinkie, and Candy for Cadence.

** Promptly subverted as he says it [[VillainRespect makes him feel closer to them.]]

* TooDumbToLive: Rainbow Dash comes across as this several times during Episode 7. Her friends tell her the obvious solution, and she does pretty much the exact opposite.
* TooMuchInformation: Maud Pie's descriptions of her and boulder's... relationship.

%%* TransparentCloset: Garble.
%%* {{Tsundere}}: Princess Ember.

* VocalDissonance: Sense it's our male narrator saying all of a mostly female cast's lines, this is inevitable.

** In a surprising move, this is ''not'' played for laughs in (Episode Name), where Maud almost lets one of those eel things in the canyon eat her, after becoming friends with Starlight made her realize she was deluding herself by just cutting herself off from everypony but rock, but couldn't bring herself to try and give other a chance.

** Parodied with Maud in Season 6 Episode 3: she's so blunt that she can make anyone feel like a horrible failure in a few words.

* BadassBaritone: ''Flurry Heart'' of all ponies, thanks to Shinning making DealWithTheDevil to get her mother to marry him.

* AxCrazy: Sunset Shimmer is portrayed as notably more unhinged, even allegedly [[spoiler: stabbing Rainbow Dash, so she would not be able to meet Applejack for their date]] and her first instict on meeting the villains of the second movie is to bash their skulls in with a pipe, sense she doesn't have magic at the moment.

* GenreSavvy: Spike's bullshit monitor is, quote, "More finely honed than your katana." as he is seemingly tricked into regaling the Crystal ponies with stories of his heroism so she doesn't have to meet Sunburst only for him to end the story by linking it right back to Starlight's current situation and then promptly drags her off. According to DWK, this is because he's spent so much time with Twilight and her crazy friends.

''Totally Legit Recap'' is a series of irreverent pony videos by [=YouTuber=] DWK. They fall somewhere between an AbridgedSeries and a review/analysis series, with a focus on raunchy meta humor that would make ComicBook/{{Deadpool}} proud. The series began with Season 6 of WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic, and has just spiraled from there.

%%* MoralityPet: Starlight becomes this to Trixie.

* AffectionateNickname: The Narrator has these for several of the characters, like Twigs for Twilight, Glim for Starlight, Ponkers for Pinkie, and Candy for Cadence.

* AlternateCharacterInterpretation: DWK has many:

** He claims the reason you can't see the ponies' genitalia, is because there is a spell censoring it while they're on camera.
** He also jokingly states that the reason Starlight seems to disappear when the episode isn't about her, is because she using her invisibility spell during the episodes.

* CargoShipping: Taken to the extreme and deconstructed with Maud, who tries to marry her ImaginaryFriend, Boulder, and mover to a desolate canyon, to take care of their "children", because she's too scared of interacting with other ponies and would rather just delude herself into thinking she was happy settling down with nothing but rocks in her life.

** In the second part of "To Where and Back Again", when asked by Starlight if she has her show supplies, Trixie responds that she has a fog machine, strobe lights, and enough booze to kill a horse... specifically, herself, but she says she can re-frame from doing that in the meantime.

* DeusExMachina: As Starlight put it, the only thing Chrysalis could have never prepared for is this trope.

* FamilyUnfriendlyAesop: Sometimes you ''shouldn't'' always listen to your elders, as they may be full of shit.

* ForcedMeme: Invoked in [=S6E18=].

* ObviouslyEvil: LampShaded with The Dazzlings.

* PrecisionFStrike: At least OncePerEpisode
* RealMenWearPink: DWK of course, if much to his annoyance, loves my little pony and even heavily implies he has some of the dolls. Also, his first instinct on seeing The Dazzlings in their standard outfits, is to critique their chooses in fashion.
* RealityEnsues: The driving conflict of episode # is replaced Applebloom realizing that now that they're older and developing their own independent interests, her and her friends will likely start growing further apart, possibly even going their separate ways entirely.

** In the oppening to Rainbow Rocks, The Dazzlings are debating doing this to improve their lives, until an oppurtunity to restore their power arises.

--> '''Fluttershy:''' You are getting a job.
--> '''Zepher Breeze:''' But my mane styling ''WebSite/YouTube''' channel is just starting to take off, I'm already up to a thousand subscribers...
--> '''Fluttershy:''' You are going to get a '''real''' fucking job.

* ShutUpKirk: At the end of Equestia Girls, Twilight tries to come to an understanding with Sunset and end the situation peacefully, only for the latter to litterally tell her to fuck off. Big mistake.

* StonersAreFunny: yes, he is.
** Defied in regards to Fleetfoot.

* {{Yandere}}: Trixie towards Starlight.

* AdaptationalVillainy: Though still more or less a good pony, Twilight i more open to extreme solutions, like threatening to have Starlight brainwash her friend, if they can not get past their personnel issues.

** ''WesternAnimation/EquestriaGirlsRainbowRocks'' the narrator specifically states that he wasn't eagerly waiting for the sequel to the first movie or that the Rainbooms' first song makes him tear up every time, after a year of waiting in a broken chaotic existence for one of the few things that gives him solace. Simply not the case.

* TeamMon: The narrator ultimately decides that instead of the all-powerful and infinitely wise god empress she was originally thought to be, Celestia is more of a mother figure to all of Equestria, as in she's been around the longest and although sometimes it seems like she's full of it and not always right, you should probably just listen to her.

* WhatTheHellHero: DWK gives a one to Applejack, Rainbow Dash, and Rarity in ''Recap/TheCartBeforeThePonies'' for selfishly using their sister's project, as an excuse to have to have a race for their own selfish reasons.

* DeathByAdaptation: Gladmane or "Pelvis" as the DWK calls him, is stated to have committed suicide off-screen after, his AccidentalConfession in ''Viva Las Pegasus'' ruined his scam and his destroyed his carer.

* ItsAllAboutMe: The narrator/DWK states this as the reason he could never get into post-HeelFaceTurn Discord, like he did with Sunset Shimmer and Starlight Glimmer. More specifically, while the latter two are shown to be actively trying to become better people/ponies for its own sake and slowly but surely shown becoming progressivley nicer, Discord continues to act like a smug JerkAss and only feels sorry or admits he's at fault when his actions risk damaging his personal relationships.

* LookTheyReallyDoLoveEachOther:

* QuitYourWhinning: Spike tells Twilight when people as happy and successful as her feel insecure, they're basically spitting on those beneath them.

* ReasonableAthourityFigure: DWK respects Dragon Lord Tourch for being this ''and'' the most badass looking dragon, and even argues that he deserves to stay in power over any other dragon.

* SeriousBuissness: Acting OutOfCharacter is treated as such, as it could lead to {{Flanderization}} and eventually becoming a boring character.
* SexForService:

* BecameTheirOwnAntithesis: After pulling the zombie prank on Rainbow Dash to get back at her for her earlier actions and the even bigger crime of ''[[OCC acting out of character]]'', she calls them out on their hypocrisy, pointing out that not only have they sunk to her lever, but were acting out of character ''themselves''! Cue horrifying realization.

* DeathByAdaptation: Gladmane or "Pelvis" as the DWK calls him, is stated to have committed suicide off-screen after, his AcidentalConfesion in ''Viva Las Pegasus'' ruined his scam and his destroyed his carer.

* DuesExMechina: As Starlight put it, the only thing Chrysalis could have never prepared for is this trope.

(Later)

* FamilyUnfriendlyAseop: Sometimes you ''shouldn't'' always listen to your elders, as they may be full of shit.

* FruidianExcuse: Trixie reveals that she has some '''serious''' ParentalIssues which may have given her a SuperiorityInferiorityComplex.

* ADateWithRosiePalmer: This is brought up a surprising amount of times by a wide variety of characters.

* AdaptionNameChange: Thorax's name has been changed to Steve, because unfortunately the name Thorax was too cool for him.
* AdaptionalVillainy: Though still more or less a good pony, Twilight i more open to extreme solutions, like threatening to have Starlight brainwash her friend, if they can not get past their personnel issues.

* BecomeOurOwnAntithesis: After pulling the zombie prank on Rainbow Dash to get back at her for her earlier actions and the even bigger crime of ''[[OCC acting out of character]]'', she calls them out on their hypocrisy, pointing out that not only have they sunk to her lever, but were acting out of character ''themselves''! Cue horrifying realization.

* BrattyTeenageGirl: Twilight believes this is the reason The Humane Five were so easily torn apart and refused to work things out. Also, why the other alicorns didn't want to come to the EQG universe personally.

* DoesThisSoundFamiliar:

* DisfuctionJuntion: The Mane Six, as lamp shaded by the ending of ''Every Little Thing She Does''
--> '''Starlight:''' Look dudes, whatever Twilight and her stupid friendship lesson say, I know I'll probably never but part of your click and I'm okay with that. I mean, I'm crazy bitch whose barley capable of casual social interaction
--> '''Mane Six:''' Yep, you sure are. And that's why you fit right in.

* AcceptableTargets: Starlight calls stepping on Angel Bunny a "productive morning". More than a few fans agree.

* CrazyAwesome: Starlight. She's a (barely) [[FunctionalAddict functioning alcoholic]] with god-tier magical capabilities. She almost [[IndyPloy never has a plan]] and yet manages to do a ton of impressive stuff anyway. Up to and including saving Equestria with the power of Crunk.
** Trixie as well, which is probably why they get along so well.
---> '''DWK:''' And then she makes the ''metalest'' suicide attempt ''ever''.

* DrowningMySorrows: while many of the characters engage in this, the greatest example is DWK himself. He occasionally has to pause in a filibuster to chug one down, and says that it's the only thing that gets him through the day.

* EldritchAbomination: The "Old Gods" are mentioned several times. They seem to be near-omnipotent beings who will do whatever you want- in exchange for your soul.
* LesYay: Starlight and Trixie are a couple in his universe.

* ThisISThePartWhere: [=S6E1=] ends with the others expecting Twilight to quickly fix everything. She explains that she can't.

** In S6E21, Fluttershy mentions finding a Trapdoor Spider in her "backdoor". Starlight confirms she was the one to put it there.

-----------------

* BrutalHonesty: one part of DWK's style- every character tends to be so blunt, they'd likely be slapped in real life.

-->-- Ah'right. Time to go drink a fifth and jack off. Not necessarily in that order.
