| 10 | * Mane 6 - Referring to the show's main cast: Twilight Sparkle, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy, Applejack, and Rarity. This term has become an AscendedMeme and now often used by showrunners and other marketing to speak of the show's characters. |
| 11 | ** Mane 7 - The Mane 6 + Spike. |
| 12 | ** The Other Mane 6 - The most popular background ponies: Derpy Hooves, Doctor Whooves, Bon-bon, Lyra, Vinyl Scratch, and Octavia. |
| 13 | ** Humane 7 - The ''Equestria Girls'' variant of the Mane 6 plus Sunset Shimmer. |
| 14 | ** Student 6[=/=]Young 6 - The pupils of the School of Friendship introduced in Season 8: Gallus, Ocellus, Sandbar, Silverstream, Smolder, and Yona |
| 15 | * It seems that if anypony makes a goofy face on the show, fans will pounce on it. Aside from Derpy Hooves and her FishEyes in the first episode, "Applebuck Season" brings us Rainbow Dash's [[http://derpibooru.org/search?sbq=dashface gushing kissy-face]] (along with the accompanying phrase "So ''awesome!''" and the emoticon "'''/)^3^('''") and Applejack's various loopy sleep-deprived faces, along with her look of disgust when she mishears the "wheat germ" part of Pinkie Pie's muffin recipe as "wheat worms", and "The Best Night Ever" brings [[http://derpibooru.org/search?sbq=flutterrage "Flutterrage"]]. The [[https://derpibooru.org/search?q=scrunchy+face%2C+screencap oft-used]] [[https://derpibooru.org/230325 scrunchy face]] expression is also quite popular. |
| 16 | ** As of Season 2, there has been an abundance of UnintentionalUncannyValley-ish expressions whenever a pony's head is looking directly at the camera. Colloquially known as the [[http://derpibooru.org/58610 FAIC]]. |
| 17 | ** And now "Daring Don't" gives us Smugdash and a reworked Dashface |
| 18 | ** A scene from "Marks for Effort" where Cozy Glow visits Guidance Counseler Starlight gave us [[https://mlp.wikia.com/wiki/File:Starlight%27s_meme-able_look_S8E12.png this face]] |
| 19 | * [X] IS BEST PONY [[labelnote:explanation]]A common way of expressing one's favor for a particular character. The omission of the word "the" is intentional. However, often used when [X] isn't a pony at all (like Spike or Gilda), or is a character from a completely different work (like Magneto) which still isn't a pony.[[/labelnote]] |
| 20 | ** "Silly anon, that's not how you spell 'Pinkie Pie!'" [[labelnote:explanation]]Fans naming other ponies as their favorite character tend to attract image macros with this phrase, though there's at least one version where Pinkie admits [[{{Moe}} Fluttershy]] [[EvenTheGirlsWantHer is her favorite, too]].[[/labelnote]] |
| 21 | * A few image macros pop up with some of the characters looking at the viewer asking for [[CuddleBug 'hugs']]. [[CutenessProximity Sometimes it works]]. |
| 22 | * Ponies. In. Socks. [[labelnote:explanation]]An [[https://derpibooru.org/6565 adorable piece of fan art of Luna wearing socks]] has spawned [[http://www.equestriadaily.com/2011/07/drawfriend-stuff-ponies-in-socks.html all kinds of cute fanart]] of Luna or another pony in socks, a [[http://www.equestriadaily.com/2011/07/story-lunas-socks.html fanfic]], and even [[http://www.welovefine.com/product.php?id_product=919 an]] [[TheMerch officially licensed shirt]].[[/labelnote]] |
| 23 | ** Sweaters are the new socks. |
| 24 | ** Minty liked socks before they were cool. [[labelnote:explanation]]Minty is a [=G3=] pony who collected socks.[[/labelnote]] |
| 25 | * "Congratulations, X! You're the new Y!" [[labelnote:explanation]]A play on the original line "Congratulations, Spike! You're the new Rainbow Dash!" Examples include "Congratulations, Pinkie Pie! You're the new Scootaloo!" in response to Pinkie's chicken costume in "Luna Eclipsed" and "Congratulations, Twilight! You're the new Rarity!" in response to Apple Bloom giving Twilight's mane the same style as Rarity's in "The Cutie Pox".[[/labelnote]] |
| 26 | * CELESTIA, [[MagnificentBastard YOU MAGNIFICENT MARE!]] ''YOU READ MY LETTERS!'' [[labelnote:explanation]]Celestia's BatmanGambit for snapping Twilight Sparkle out of Discord's spell was simply to send Twilight copies of all the letters she'd written to Celestia in season 1, about what she'd learned about friendship, knowing that even a mindscrewed Twilight Sparkle would not be able to resist the written word. The quote is a reference to ''Film/{{Patton}}''.[[/labelnote]] |
| 27 | * Good morning, [X]! [[labelnote:explanation]]A series of pieces by [[http://johnjoseco.deviantart.com/ this artist]] depicting various characters shortly after waking up. Other artists have since joined in on the theme.[[/labelnote]] |
| 28 | * "Lock it under a rock, I'm sure it won't get out." [[labelnote:explanation]]Nightmare Moon and Discord, the two {{Big Bad}}s of the series so far, were sealed in the moon and turned into a statue respectively, both by Celestia. Fan speculation for Celestia's reason for using essentially the same imprisonment strategy twice usually has someone suggest this was what she was thinking during both instances.[[/labelnote]] |
| 29 | ** Many fans exaggerate this by making it her go-to solution for ''anything'' she doesn't like. |
| 30 | * [PONY] found a [VEHICLE] [[labelnote:explanation]]Looping animations of one or more characters driving a vehicle at high speed accompanied with a fitting background music. Usually also includes extra elements happening around them as they drive. It started with [[http://dx11.deviantart.com/art/FLASH-Pinkie-found-a-TransAm-266985369 this one]], which features Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash, and Fluttershy riding a [=TransAm=] down the side of a mountain. The [[http://chaostangent.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/575831.jpg car]] they were driving and the background music (called "[[http://youtu.be/doEwWzMz99A Yellow Line]]") are from an Anime movie called ''Anime/{{REDLINE}}''. Many others have followed in its wake. (A collection can be found [[http://ponies-in-vehicles.deviantart.com/gallery/ here]].)[[/labelnote]] |
| 31 | * [[{{Rule 63}} Colt versions]]. [[labelnote:explanation]]Genderbends of the Mane Cast, usually created by lowering the pitch on the original voices. In this incarnation, their names become Butterscotch, Applejack, Elusive, Rainbow Blitz, Bubble Berry, and Dusk Shine (and his number one secretary, Barbara (Barb)). In case you're confused as to who's who, they are male versions of Fluttershy, Applejack, Rarity, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, and Twilight Sparkle, and the female version of Spike.[[/labelnote]] |
| 32 | ** At least [[https://www.youtube.com/user/philsterman10 one]] Youtuber has taken it a step further, not only voice acting as the colts, but changing their dialog to be more male-specific (for example, Elusive designs suits instead of dresses and wants to find a princess rather than a prince charming). Think [[FanFic/SuzumiyaHaruhiNoSeitenkan The Gender-Flip of Haruhi Suzumiya]], only with ponies. |
| 33 | *** And this itself has spawned a VA project that seeks to voice the Genderswapped Mane Six to use as a live reading for the story "Fanfic/OnACrossAndArrow" which popularized the Male Cast. The casting call can be found [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DsqZJ8TxSGc here]], the accepted voice list can be found [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KWs7qmWiEkU here]], a demo of the accepted voices can be heard [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R0DYX1IYe2s here]] and the first episode [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7ggSrYShCk0 here]]. |
| 34 | ** This has started slowly to spread to the other background ponies/characters. For example, [[http://s3.amazonaws.com/kym-assets/photos/images/original/000/197/362/82184%20-%20Discord%20Eris%20artist%253Atrotsworth%20discordia%20genderswap%20rule_63%20what.png?1320804998 Eris as a gender-bent Discord.]] |
| 35 | * Spinning Turntable Ponies [[labelnote:explanation]]An animated pixel art gif trend where a filly version of a pony is shown riding on a spinning turntable. Most of these can be found [[http://mammoh.deviantart.com/gallery/ here]] and [[http://tomdantherock.deviantart.com/gallery/ here]].[[/labelnote]] |
| 36 | ** The trend originated from a popular Vinyl Scratch gif that came from [[http://fav.me/d486hs2 here]] (the links below the image provides [[http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v488/Valcron/TAVI.png a comic version]], [[http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v488/Valcron/TurnTabletemplate.png a template for the frames]], [[http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v488/Valcron/ScratchonRecord-1.gif the animated gif]], [[http://youtu.be/fz1rfOn4IAU a Youtube video]], and [[http://fav.me/d4dz6y0 a vectorized version]]). |
| 37 | * [X] Cannon/Bazooka/Launcher [[labelnote:explanation]]An art trend of ponies wielding large shoulder mounted cannons/bazookas/launchers. Color scheme of the cannon and its ammunition depends on its wielder. Originated from one of a series of ''[=FiM=]'' themed weapons created by Flamingo1986. One of which was called the "[[http://fav.me/d3gluka Pinkie Pie Launcher]]". Other artists later edited Pinkie Pie herself holding the launcher[[http://fav.me/d3hk22m]] and it soon spread to other characters as well.[[/labelnote]] |
| 38 | ** Party Cannon. [[labelnote:explanation]]Shown in the episode "Sweet and Elite" where Pinkie Pie shows it off as to explain how she can set up parties so quickly. Makes a return in "A Canterlot Wedding, Part 2".[[/labelnote]] |
| 39 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sob1t-iUCmE Bass Cannon.]] |
| 40 | * Wet manes. [[labelnote:explanation]]Fanart showing characters with their manes drenched and hanging down, inspired by a scene with Rarity in "Sisterhooves Social". One such fanart piece, of Silver Spoon as a grown mare, eventually went on to be [[http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=517431964964140 used]] in Creator/{{Gameloft}}'s ''VideoGame/MyLittlePony'' game.[[/labelnote]] |
| 41 | * Baby ponies. [[labelnote:explanation]]In "[[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS2E8TheMysteriousMareDoWell The Mysterious Mare Do Well]]", one of Rainbow Dash's heroic deeds was saving a baby pony from falling off a cliff. While (older-looking) babies had previously appeared in the SpinOffBabies [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JrtUFeDB7gg toy commercial]] and toys, this was the first time that any appeared in the show itself. With in-show reference for a baby at hand, [[http://baby-ponys.deviantart.com/ the fandom had a field day.]] And now that "[[Recap/MyLittlePonyfriendshipIsMagicS2E12BabyCakes Baby Cakes]]" has aired, they're having another.[[/labelnote]] |
| 42 | * Smooth Cheerilee / Spike Criminal [[labelnote:explanation]]A fair number of people have noticed how the hat Cheerilee gives Spike in "[[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS2E10SecretOfMyExcess Secret of My Excess]]" resembles that worn by Music/MichaelJackson in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h_D3VFfhvs4&ob=av2n the video for "Smooth Criminal"]]. This has resulted in a [[http://www.canterlot.com/gallery/image/1152-cheerilee-smooth-criminal/ few]] [[http://crabmeatstick.deviantart.com/art/Smooth-Cheerilee-273464522 pieces]] [[http://paradigmpizza.deviantart.com/art/Smooth-Criminal-273284320 of art]] depicting either Cheerilee or Spike wearing an outfit that resembles Michael's Moonwalker ensemble and performing the [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smooth_Criminal#Anti-gravity_lean anti-gravity lean]].[[/labelnote]] |
| 43 | * Fluffy ponies [[labelnote:explanation]]A trending art meme where ponies are drawn with thicker and fluffier fur.[[/labelnote]] |
| 44 | ** Fluffy pony drowns [[labelnote:explanation]]Fanart on Website/FourChan has inspired a flood of mini-fics about adorable but [[TooDumbToLive accident-prone]] pet fluffy ponies.[[/labelnote]] |
| 45 | *** Fluffy pony abuse [[labelnote:explanation]]Said image board has since spawned numerous mini-fics involving rather ''disturbingly'' detailed slaughter and mistreatment of fluffy ponies, usually in the form of DisproportionateRetribution for the afformentioned stupidity. The most common form of abuse is the "Sorry Stick", an impromptu spanking device made from a thin rod of wood.[[/labelnote]] |
| 46 | *** Now, let it be known that such stories has caused a bit of CreatorBacklash from Mixermike662, the creator of Fluffle Puff and the man who popularized the Fluffy Ponies concept to begin with. And by "Creator Backlash", ''they caused him to disown the fandom.'' |
| 47 | *** Many of the fluffy pony abuse artists must have intentionally been drawing parallels to the development of [[WaddlingHead yukkuris]] as a meme in ''Memes/TouhouProject'' fandom. |
| 48 | ** Fuzzy ponies [[labelnote:explanation]]A "follow-up" of sort to fluffy ponies, the original post involved Hasbro Biotoys inventing a successor species - much more durable, obedient, and intellligent than the fluffies. While the original post seriously toted their superiority, most posts involving fuzzy ponies discuss how ''boring'' they are in comparison to fluffy ponies, and how badly they would fail.[[/labelnote]] |
| 49 | * Beep beep. I'm a cloud. [[labelnote:explanation]]A [[http://img828.imageshack.us/img828/8176/690522020artist3amr120c.png picture]] of Rainbow Dash pretending to be a cloud, which [[http://img828.imageshack.us/img828/637/scootbeep.png has]] [[http://img844.imageshack.us/img844/8144/beepbeepimstuck.png inspired]] [[http://img713.imageshack.us/img713/3241/imamuffinbydavrockistd4.png several]] [[http://img836.imageshack.us/img836/4741/trixiebeep.png sequels]].[[/labelnote]] |
| 50 | * "[CHARACTER NAME]''licious''" [[labelnote:explanation]]With the popularity of ''Twilightlicious'', derivatives began popping up such as ''[[http://youtu.be/Xs9-N16CkNs Flutterlicious]]'', ''[[http://youtu.be/9Y8-EgHM18k Derpalicious]]'', ''[[http://youtu.be/uvRjFZJcTdQ Lyralicious]]'' and ''[[http://youtu.be/YW_tnVZltGQ Rarilicious]]''[[/labelnote]] |
| 51 | ** And then it [[https://www.facebook.com/MichelleCreber/posts/10152108393144014 actually happened]] in the main show! |
| 52 | * Ponytails. [[labelnote:explanation]]The manes of characters are made in a ponytail style. Possibly made simply because of how silly it looks when you [[VisualPun think about it.]][[/labelnote]] |
| 53 | * Ponies drinking milkshakes through a straw, ever since the episode ''One Bad Apple'' featured Sweetie Belle drinking one and looking rather adorable. |
| 54 | * Zodiac/horoscope ponies[[labelnote:explaination]]The Hub posted a [[https://www.facebook.com/hubtvnetwork/app_193183930806288 horoscope generator]] on its facebook with twelve original ponies representing the various signs of the horoscope. The fandom has fleshed all of them out further well beyond the original pictures.[[/labelnote]] |
| 55 | * Sliding ponies[[labelnote:explanation]]A series of simple animations of many of the characters sliding into a box (think Maru the Cat). Has expanded greatly with takeoffs of that.[[/labelnote]] |
| 56 | * Crotchboobs.[[labelnote:explanation]]Horses in real life have nipples close to their groin. Fan artists have taken this into account.[[/labelnote]] |
| 57 | ** DON'T GOOGLE CROTCHBOOBS[[labelnote:explanation]]Common response when they're mentioned[[/labelnote]] |
| 58 | * >Implying.[[labelnote:explanation]]With several episodes in season 3 introducing the motion of "air quotes", [=GIFs=] of these with the tag ">Implying" have been made. Fan versions have also come about, though typically based on one with Lyra, leading to ">Implyra" and variants.[[/labelnote]] |
| 59 | * ''"Boop!"'' / Booping [[labelnote:explanation]]An old but still being practiced art trend where a pony is depicted being poked or tapped on the nose by another individual. Usually accompanied with the WrittenSoundEffect "boop". Booping with hands is usually done by using the index finger.[[/labelnote]] |
| 60 | * Pointy ponies.[[labelnote:explanation]]Drawing the pony characters in a style similar to the reprise of "BBBFF" during "A Canterlot Wedding", which uses simple shapes and with the hooves/feet typically ending as simple points (hence the name). As they are much easier to draw and animate, they have become popular for various animations, including WebVideo/FriendshipIsWitchcraft and WebAnimation/DoubleRainboom.[[/labelnote]] |
| 61 | * Pegasus ponies preening [[labelnote:explanation]]Fanart of pegasus ponies (and alicorns) cleaning and grooming their wings just like birds. They generally range between either cutesy or sensual, with the latter often depicting another character intimately helping them.[[/labelnote]] |
| 62 | * (Not) Doing Hurtful Things To Your Waifu Chart [[labelnote:explanation]]A 6-panel reaction meme that became popular on MLP imageboards in 2014. The "Not" edit is considerably more popular.[[/labelnote]] |
| 63 | * The Forever Weed Brownie [[labelnote:explanation]][[https://twitter.com/punkittdev/status/1609123278878314496 A comic on Twitter]] that was posted in 2022 featured Fluttershy eating a weed brownie from Pinkie's hooves to protect her, only for Pinkie Pie to reveal that it was a forever weed brownie and taunts her into keeping sane while high. The surrealist nature of it (including Fluttershy [[ArtShift turning into a real figure of herself as a]] DoubleTake) caused it to explode in popularity with snowclones involving characters from other franchises.[[/labelnote]] |

| 65 | |
| 66 | [[folder:The Mane Cast]] |
| 67 | [[AC:General]] |
| 68 | * Mane 6 DENIED! [[labelnote:explanation]]Episode 100 focused on background ponies trying their hardest to coordinate a wedding. The Mane six are seen galloping toward it near the end--and the door is shut and locked just as they reach it.[[/labelnote]] |
| 69 | |
| 70 | [[AC:Twilight Sparkle]] |
| 71 | * [[SpoofAesop Parodies of letters to Princess Celestia]], involving [[AccidentalAesop Accidental Aesops]] or snarky comments relevant to the episode or the characters. |
| 72 | --> (re: "Stare Master") "Dear Princess Celestia, I learned today that you do [[{{Determinator}} not]] [[PrecisionFStrike f*ck]] [[MamaBear with]] [[BewareTheNiceOnes Fluttershy]], ever. [[AndKnowingIsHalfTheBattle Your faithful student, Twilight Sparkle."]] |
| 73 | ** Less common is the habit of capping off any "TL;DR" or lengthy and irrelevant rant with "Your Faithful Student, Twilight Sparkle." |
| 74 | * Twilight's attack of PowerIncontinence during her flashback in "Cutie Mark Chronicles" has been compared, by various fans, to [[ComicBook/{{Watchmen}} Dr. Manhattan]], [[ComicBook/XMen Dark Phoenix]], [[VideoGame/{{Starcraft}} the Protoss Archon]], [[WesternAnimation/AvatarTheLastAirbender the Avatar State]], and/or [[Franchise/{{Highlander}} the Quickening]]. |
| 75 | * The image from "Winter Wrap Up" of Twilight Sparkle hiding in a tree from snakes led to photoshopping Twilight hanging onto... pretty much anything. [[RuleOfCute It's adorable.]] |
| 76 | * Twiworm. [[labelnote:explanation]]Twilight Sparkle [[http://outphase.tumblr.com/post/3321508568/this-is-twilight-sparkfoot-she-could-probably with no front legs or tail]]. Spawned from a (since removed) {{Blooper}} [[http://www.equestriadaily.com/2011/02/mlp-on-itunes.html on the show's iTunes store]].[[/labelnote]] |
| 77 | * [[https://derpibooru.org/search?q=twilight+is+a+lion Twilight is a lion.]] [[labelnote:explanation]]A NightmareFuel-inducing OffModel stock vector of Twilight Sparkle.[[/labelnote]] |
| 78 | * Twilight's speech in "Applebuck Season" getting interrupted inspired a lot of comparisons to [[InterruptingMeme Kanye West at the Video Music Awards]]. "Yo, Twilight, I'm really happy for you, and I'ma let you finish, but Applejack is the best pony of all time!" |
| 79 | * Congratulations! Your Twilight has evolved into [[Franchise/{{Pokemon}} Rapidash]]![[labelnote:explanation]][[http://img2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20111118000643/mlp/images/thumb/f/f6/Twilight_angry_S1E15.png/640px-Twilight_angry_S1E15.png This image]] of an angry Twilight from "Feeling Pinkie Keen" draws comparisons to the Pokemon [[http://cdn.bulbagarden.net/upload/3/3f/078Rapidash.png Rapidash]].[[/labelnote]] |
| 80 | ** Congratulations! Your Twilight has evolved into [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS3E13MagicalMysteryCure Alicorn Princess Twilight]]! |
| 81 | *** Or [[{{Portmanteau}} Twilicorn]]. |
| 82 | * Oh God, Twilight's about to miss a deadline! RUN! [[labelnote:explanation]]During the Season 2 episode ''Lesson Zero'', Twilight Sparkle being the organization freak she is, becomes [[SanitySlippage increasingly unstable]] the further into the day she goes when a letter to Princess Celestia is due for sending. She eventually comes to the conclusion that if she can't find a friend's problem to fix as a friend, then she would have to [[NiceJobBreakingItHero create one]]. [[http://i.imgur.com/WxwFS.jpg It doesn't end well.]][[/labelnote]] |
| 83 | * "Hi, ''giirrllss!''" [[labelnote:explanation]]Twilight Sparkle's creepy greeting to the CMC in "Lesson Zero"[[/labelnote]] |
| 84 | ** The face she made immediately before also gave rise to a lot of exploitable images. Not that the episode isn't already full of weird faces otherwise. |
| 85 | * Twilight Snapple / Twilight Psycho [[labelnote:explanation]]In "Lesson Zero", Twilight begins to lose her grip on sanity, complete with creepy facial expressions, eventually coming to the point that it looks almost as if she's stalking the CMC.[[/labelnote]] |
| 86 | * My Little Pet Twilight Sparkle [[labelnote:explanation]]A meme in a similar fashion to "Lyra wants hands" (See "Background Pony Memes"). It's about Twilight Sparkle wanting to be qualified as Rainbow Dash's pet. She's usually depicted with a leash to symbolize her "dedication". It came from [[http://youtu.be/i9hpX1SfPiQ a line]] in the episode "May the Best Pet Win" where Rainbow Dash explains to Twilight Sparkle why she can never be qualified to be her pet. Fan art examples so far: [[http://fav.me/d4hqgcy]] [[http://fav.me/d4goltr]][[http://fav.me/d4gz36x]][[http://fav.me/d4gpheo]] [[http://fav.me/d4h28x4]] [[http://fav.me/d4gqai6]] and also some Ask Tumblrs (see "Ask Tumblrs" under "Website Specific Memes") referencing the meme: [[http://friendlytwilight.tumblr.com/post/13070600493]][[http://askmlcblobs.tumblr.com/post/13157639594]][[/labelnote]] |
| 87 | * Twilight [[Series/{{Seinfeld}} Benes]]. [[labelnote:explanation]]Twilight's bizarre dancing in "Sweet and Elite" has prompted ''many'' references to Elaine's similar lack of anything resembling rhythm.[[/labelnote]] |
| 88 | * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wblE8YYLyQ0 Twilightlicious]] [[labelnote:explanation]]Creator/TaraStrong puts out a vocal Twitter message, singing ''I'm T to the W-I-L-I-G-H-T/And ain't no other pony troll it down like me/I'm Twilightlicious!'' Cue the talented fandom...[[/labelnote]] |
| 89 | ** [[http://www.equestriadaily.com/2012/03/lets-get-twilightilicious-trending.html The saga continues]] as Tara and her followers attempt to make "Twilightlicious" trending on Twitter. |
| 90 | ** Given the reactions (both ways) from her Twitters (typically, stating something along the lines of "Here's a picture of me naked", attached to a tasteful photo of one of the clothes-less characters she voices), Tara's even called out these acts as [[{{Troll}} Twolling]]. |
| 91 | ** TheMerch now includes an official ''[[http://www.welovefine.com/2050-twilightlicious.html Twilightlicious]]'' [[http://www.welovefine.com/2078-twilightlicious.html T-shirt]]. |
| 92 | * The teaser clip for "It's About Time", which featured a [[MyFutureSelfAndMe time-traveling Twilight]] wearing a [[FutureBadass tattered jumpsuit and eyepatch with a disheveled mane]], has inspired many crossovers with various AfterTheEnd or BadFuture works such as ''Franchise/{{Terminator}}'' and ''Film/EscapeFromNewYork''. |
| 93 | ** Also with ''VideoGame/MetalGearSolid3SnakeEater'', as she looks uncannily similar to Naked Snake. |
| 94 | * Recognition of Twilight Sparkle's [[Creator/TaraStrong voice actress]] in the video game VideoGame/LollipopChainsaw led to numerous people referencing her in Youtube comments and fanart such as [[http://bridgetn88.deviantart.com/art/Lollipop-Chainsaw-feat-Twilight-Sparkle-289026822 this one]] depicting her as the main character. |
| 95 | * Twilight is now a gun [[labelnote:explanation]][[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m5enoTvMd-o Inspired by this scene]] of Pinkie Pie using Twilight as a minigun.[[/labelnote]] |
| 96 | * Sweatervest [[labelnote:explanation]]Whenever Twilight is anthropomorphised, she'll almost always be depicted wearing a sweatervest for whatever reason.[[/labelnote]] |
| 97 | * The image of Filly Twilight looking up from a book to her brother from the "BBBFF" song has sparked a lot of pictures such as [[http://bronies.memebase.com/2012/05/02/my-little-pony-friendship-is-magic-brony-totally-worth-it/ this]] |
| 98 | * Twilight Sparkle is a melting pot of friendship. From a line Creator/TaraStrong had said herself by popular request, this did not amuse a certain, [[Radio/TrueCapitalist Texan, capitalist]] who originated the line. |
| 99 | * [[http://derpibooru.org/tags/special-eyes Twilight's Special Eyes]] [[labelnote:explanation]]Based on a [[http://derpibooru.org/147949?scope=scpe25dd8e0d7259f3590838dbd98ffdde858dd7dbe8 funny frame]] from the Season 3 premiere, where for a split second Twilight gains angry, googly eyes.[[/labelnote]] |
| 100 | * Twilight is a murderer. [[labelnote:explanation]]In the episode [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS3E3TooManyPinkiePies "Too Many Pinkie Pies"]], Twilight dispatches the Pinkie clones the moment they look away from a wall of paint. The fact that as the clones practically explode into magical energy, and she said there was a risk of the same thing happening to the original Pinkie, led to cries of people [[RonTheDeathEater calling her a murderer or "committing Pinkiecide"]].[[/labelnote]]. |
| 101 | * Twilight's new form. [[labelnote:explanation]]A two-panel exploitable taken from "Magical Mystery Cure" as the Mane Five react in shock for the first time to Twilight's new form. The second panel, in-show showing Twilight with her new wings, is altered to be everything from Rule 63 Twilight, Princess Big Macintosh, God from ''Film/MontyPythonAndTheHolyGrail'', GabeNewell, and so on.[[/labelnote]] |
| 102 | * "Everything is going to be fine." [[labelnote:explanation]]Following her change into an alicorn and subsequent coronation in "Magical Mystery Cure", Twilight says that "Everything is going to be fine". Given the BrokenBase reaction to Alicorn Twilight, several have taken this phrase, typically with the image of Alicorn Twilight, onto photos of great diasters, like the Hindenberg, noting how (to them) the show is TemptingFate.[[/labelnote]] |
| 103 | * Twilight cat/twicat [[labelnote:explanation]]One user pointed out a scene in "Spike At Your Service" where Twilight seems to act like a cat thus leading to pictures of twilight acting like a cat and/or saying nya/meow.[[/labelnote]] |
| 104 | * Twiface [[labelnote:explanation]]In one scene in "Swarm of the Century", Twilight puts on a smug grin while doing an AsideGlance, [[http://derpibooru.org/301243?scope=scpe8631dd2a77cc1e395723c6ba4aef15d90a5decd3 as seen here.]] This is often accompanied by the expression "You've come to the wrong neighborhood".[[/labelnote]] |
| 105 | * [[https://derpibooru.org/tags/twiscream Twiscream]] [[labelnote:explanation]]In one of the shots in the trailer for Equestria Girls, Twilight is seen having a FreakOut about her new human form. The fanbase took notice of this and ran with it, and god''damn'' how they ran with it.[[/labelnote]] |
| 106 | * Twidayo [[labelnote:explanation]]This is the name that has been given to the [[http://derpibooru.org/273535?scope=scpecf0ca821df25953759b713b0fe0a98a0edc3b0ac Japanese costume]] of Twilight Sparkle by the Japanese audience, which has been made fun of many times because of how creepy they thought it was.[[/labelnote]] |
| 107 | * Crashlight [[labelnote:explanation]]The shot of Twilight failing to awkwardly pull out of a crash landing, landing face-first with the ground, from teasers for the first episode of Season 4.[[/labelnote]] |
| 108 | * Twilicane/scepter[[labelnote:explanation]]In "Princess Twlight, Part 2", Discord momentarily gives Twilight a golden cane/scepter with a sculpture of her head - with a very goofy expression - at one end. Naturally, it had a [[http://asktwilightscepter.tumblr.com/ Ask Twilight Scepter blog]] within a day of the episode airing. And a [[https://derpibooru.org/480603 GMod item]] within two. And [[https://derpibooru.org/481542 real life version.]] And now it's a useable staff in [[VideoGame/TheElderScrollsVSkyrim The Elder Scrolls V:]] [[http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/48153 Skyrim]].[[/labelnote]] |
| 109 | * "My cutie mark!"[[labelnote:explanation]]In "Princess Twilight Sparkle, Part 2", Twilight makes this exclamation when she sees a six-pointed star symbol on the Tree of Harmony, even though the star is fairly generic-looking and its resemblance to Twilight's actual cutie mark is passing at best. This led to images of Twilight identifying '''any''' star-shaped object as her cutie mark.[[/labelnote]] |
| 110 | * [[https://derpibooru.org/tags/twilight+burgkle Twilight Burgkle]][[labelnote:explanation]]In "Twilight Time" Twilight was shown very enthusiastically and messily devouring burgers.[[/labelnote]] |
| 111 | * [[https://derpibooru.org/tags/super+saiyan+princess Super Saiyan Princess]][[labelnote:explanation]]Twilight's KamehameHadoken-laden battle with Lord Tirek in "Twilight's Kingdom" drew a lot of comparisons with ''Manga/DragonBall''.[[/labelnote]] |
| 112 | * Twilight's Freeze Spell/[[Manga/StardustCrusaders Za Warudo]][[labelnote:explanation]][[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS4E3CastleManeia Both]] [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS5E23TheHooffieldsAndMcColts instances]] of Twilight using her freeze spell and how it's cast is animated have been met with comparisons to ''Manga/JojosBizarreAdventureStardustCrusaders''. People drew comparisons to when [[BigBad DIO]] uses his Stand's [[TimeStandsStill time stop]] power in addition to how the spell freezes its targets in place.[[/labelnote]] |
| 113 | * NOT THE BOOKS![[labelnote:explanation]]During "Twilight's Kingdom", Twilight avoided confrontation with Tirek until he blew up the library, at which point she clearly grew angry and leapt into the fray firing a KamehameHadoken. Exclamations to the effect of "you hurt the books, it's on now!" are the typical reaction[[/labelnote]] |
| 114 | * I'M PANCAKE!![[labelnote:explanation]]In "Castle Sweet Castle", Twilight falls asleep at breakfast and lands face-first in a stack of pancakes. She wakes up with this WakingNonSequitur, along with a pancake impaled on her horn. Art of Twilight and pancakes naturally became very common.[[/labelnote]] |
| 115 | * Punklight Sparkle[[labelnote:explanation]]Twilight with her new punk-like hairdo from "Castle Sweet Castle".[[/labelnote]] |
| 116 | * Twilight Starkle[[labelnote:explanation]]Because she said the magic words "[[Series/GameOfThrones Winter Is Coming]]" in "Tanks for the Memories".[[/labelnote]] |
| 117 | * "...but she's afraid of Quesadillas." [[labelnote:explanation]]In Party Pooped, Fluttershy reads Pinkie's party notes on Twilight and ends with this. Twilight's desperate denial reaction sells it.[[/labelnote]] |
| 118 | * Melania Trump copying Twilight Sparkle [[labelnote:explanation]]On July 19, 2016, in response to allegations that Donald Trump's wife Melania had plagiarized portions of a speech by Michelle Obama during the 2016 Republican National Convention, his chief strategist (and eventual press secretary) Sean Spicer compared quotes from other works that were vaguely similar to lines from the speech to argue that her speech used common ideas and was not necessarily copied from Obama's speech. One of them was a Twilight Sparkle quote from "Do Princesses Dream of Magic Sheep?", "This is your dream, anything you can do in your dreams you can do now."), and not even in the right context (Melania was talking about dreams, Twilight was explaining that they were literally ''in'' a dream). Tara Strong was one of the first to point this out on Twitter. CNN even put a story on the front page, illustrated with [[https://derpibooru.org/1204701 fan art]], of course.[[/labelnote]] |
| 119 | * "Wait! Puuuddiiiiiiiing!"[[note]][[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jQSrNO8lkSE A scene]] from ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyBestGiftEver'' in which Twilight realizes what gift to give Pinkie Pie for Hearth's Warming. It quickly blew up upon the special's airing, not at all helped by Creator/TaraStrong's [[LargeHam hamming it up]].[[/note]] |
| 120 | |
| 121 | [[AC:Applejack]] |
| 122 | * [[http://vignette4.wikia.nocookie.net/wordgirl/images/9/92/Liarjack.png/revision/latest?cb=20130324025629 "Liarjack"]] [[labelnote:explanation]]Applejack, being the Element of Honesty, almost never tells a lie. When corrupted by Discord in "The Return of Harmony", however, she constantly lies, while doing the linked face. Has spawned a lot of image macros; the captions usually border on SuspiciouslySpecificDenial.[[/labelnote]] |
| 123 | * EHTS TWALIGHT SPORKLES [=BALlEWN=][[labelnote:explantion]] The beginning of an advertisment for a Twilight Sparkle Twinkling Balloon had Applejack yodeling "It's Twilight Sparkle's Balloon!" in a obviously fake accent. Pictures sparked up everywhere mocking the ridiculous impression. [[/labelnote]] |
| 124 | * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=84PZbL_-jjU Who's a Silly Pony?]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bk5PbfpBJUI Who is, you is, Applejack!]] [[labelnote:explanation]]Applejack is one of the rare characters in the series who comes from a previous series, in this case Generation 1 My Little Pony. G1 Applejack was a klutz to the extreme. In a UK My Little Pony audiobook, Applejack was introduced with this song to showcase her clumsy nature. Fans have since taken the song and attached it to scenes where Friendship Is Magic Applejack is being shown as acting weird.[[/labelnote]] |
| 125 | * In ''The Return Of Harmony: Part II'', the shot of a smug Applejack bringing up Rarity's brief fling with "Tom" has been used by fans for various clever one-liners in image macros for different ways to one-up Rarity. |
| 126 | * A minor, but interesting one: fans asking, "[[AlternateUniverseFic What if she decided to embrace sophistication when]] [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS1E23TheCutieMarkChronicles staying with the Oranges in Manehattan?]]" The result: [[http://derpibooru.org/tags/orangejack Orangejack.]] |
| 127 | ** Followed up when the episode "Too many Pinkie Pies" featured Twilight Sparkle testing out an "Apple to Orange" spell, but always being interrupted and hitting something other than the apple. [[http://bloody-vikings.deviantart.com/art/Apples-to-Oranges-338700813 The inevitable result.]] |
| 128 | * Applejack's Episode. [[labelnote:explanation]]Applejack has had one feature episode since the beginning of the show, and a split ticket with a couple episodes, most commonly with Rarity. When the DVD ''The Friendship Express'' was revealed to contain an episode titled "The Last Roundup", the fans went nuts. When the episode's synopsis was released, revealing that Applejack was missing and the manes had to find her, the fans were less impressed. When the episode ''after'' was confirmed to be a truly Apple-Family-centric episode, the fans perked up again, and when Applejack actually appeared throughout all of ''The Last Roundup'' their ire disappeared completely.[[/labelnote]] |
| 129 | ** And then the episode was remembered not for Applejack, but for [[MemeticBystander Derpy]] appearing throughout the opener, and actually talking. At least the following episode mostly focused on AJ, though in the context of her family and, again, being partially upstaged by the characters of the week. |
| 130 | * "Forget you, I can eat ALL these apples!" [[labelnote:explanation]]At a panel at the January 2012 Bronycon, fans convinced guest speaker Ashleigh Ball (the voice of Applejack) to quote the fan animation APPLE.MOV[[/labelnote]] |
| 131 | * Appletroll [[labelnote:explanation]]At the end of [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS2E15TheSuperSpeedyCiderSqueezy6000 "The Super Speedy Cider Squeezy 6000"]], Applejack proudly proclaims that she did not learn anything from the episode in her letter to Celestia. Since that means she never had a reason to send a letter, this led to people claiming that she was trolling Celestia. Her smug "haters gonna hate" trot while narrating said letter, followed by presumably going out to get wasted on [[FrothyMugsOfWater cider]] helps considerably.[[/labelnote]] |
| 132 | * Babyapple/Babyjack saying "Ah'm Applejack. More apple fwitter?" [[labelnote:explanation]]The Season 3 episode "Apple Family Reunion" has a flashback scene of a baby Applejack saying this line in a [[CutenessProximity ridiculously adorable]] way.[[/labelnote]] |
| 133 | * Applejack is the new Twilight Sparkle. [[labelnote:explanation]]One viewer pointed out that, in season 3, Applejack is the only member of the Mane 6 to have a speaking role in every episode. Not even Twilight Sparkle has done so, leading to [[http://cheezburger.com/6928133888 this meme.]] Given the fact that in season 2, Applejack had very little screen time and dialogue compared to the rest of the Mane 6, it was a remarkable turnaround.[[/labelnote]] |
| 134 | * The buck's a hand?! [[labelnote:explanation]]During the song "What My Cutie Mark is Telling Me" in the season 3 finale, Applejack says the line, "Could y'all give me a ''hand'' here and help me fix this mess?" Fans caught on to the error and reacted expectedly.[[/labelnote]] |
| 135 | * Stupid Sexy Applejack [[labelnote:explanation]]Applejack's fantasy sequences while working on the farm and modeling as Applejewel in "Simple Ways" appears to have invoked this.[[/labelnote]] |
| 136 | * Applebrow. [[labelnote:explanation]]Season 4 includes two memorable instances of Applejack raising her eyebrow in response to another character's absurd claims.[[/labelnote]] |
| 137 | * Applejack cries on the inside.[[labelnote:explanation]]During "Tanks for the Memories", as the others break down into shared tears, Pinkie Pie tells Twilight that she's crying because Twilight's not crying. Twilight asks about AJ, who remains stoic, and Pinkie replies with this phrase.[[/labelnote]] |
| 138 | * "Applejack is best background pony." [[labelnote:explaination]]Applejack became rather infamous (particularly in the first few seasons) for having very few episodes where she's the focus. And what few she did star in, it was often her sharing the spotlight with another character (usually Rarity or Rainbow Dash).[[/labelnote]] |
| 139 | |
| 140 | [[AC:Pinkie Pie]] |
| 141 | * [[GenkiGirl Everything]] [[CloudCuckoolander about]] [[SweetTooth Pinkie Pie]]. ''[[FountainOfMemes Everything]]''. |
| 142 | ** [[NoodleIncident "...and then I said]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bNuRzry2iic 'Oatmeal? Are you crazy?'"]] [[labelnote:explanation]]Pinkie Pie blurts this out following Twilight's BigShutUp in "The Ticket Master". Posting any image of oatmeal now guarantees a Pinkie Pie reaction image.[[/labelnote]] |
| 143 | ** Pinkie Pie is ''everywhere''. |
| 144 | *** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RLkc1huIBCo FOREVER!]] [[labelnote:explanation]]In "Green Isn't Your Colour", Pinkie ensures that Twilight doesn't break her promise by appearing from nowhere and ominously saying this. Image edits of the scene quickly took off, featuring Pinkie Pie popping out and saying "FOREVER!" in random places.[[/labelnote]] |
| 145 | *** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7nVjxIKgaGc NOPONY BREAKS A PINKIE PROMISE]]!!!! [[labelnote:explanation]]In "The Last Roundup", Applejack made a Pinkie Promise to explain everything during breakfast. When the Mane 5 discover she ran before breakfast, Pinkie takes it rather personally.[[/labelnote]] |
| 146 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wgBZ_SnAuk4 "And that's how Equestria was made!"]] [[labelnote:explanation]]This is how Pinkie Pie ends her cutie mark story in "Cutie Mark Chronicles". While the Cutie Mark Crusaders brush it off as "Pinkie Pie being [[CloudCuckoolander Pinkie Pie]]", fans have joked that somehow, someway, Pinkie Pie really ''is'' responsible for the creation/foundation of Equestria. Others just joke that Pinkie would end her rendition of the Equestrian CreationMyth with "...and that's how I got my cutie mark!"[[/labelnote]] |
| 147 | * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wu3j3Qh7sTE "The life of Pinkie Pie in 6 seconds"]] [[labelnote:explanation]]The Lonely Island's "Like a Boss" used to describe Pinkie Pie's life.[[/labelnote]] |
| 148 | * Pinkie's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-gRgE3zabIY "Parasprite Polka"]] from "Swarm of the Century" is gaining more and more fame. |
| 149 | * ''Fanfic/CupcakesSergeantSprinkles'' [[labelnote:explanation]]An incredibly infamous, gore-riddled FanFic (someone on Equestria Daily compared it to ''VisualNovel/HigurashiWhenTheyCry'') that has wormed its way into a permanent spot in the collective fandom consciousness. Much like ''TabletopGame/{{Warhammer 40000}}'' fans and ''Squad Broken'', mentioning "cupcakes" without any context is likely to make some fans suffer horrible flashbacks.[[/labelnote]] |
| 150 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bxfz8-ZmRu4 IT'S BEEN ANIMATED.]] |
| 151 | *** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mP7qgHWrHNA&feature=watch_response TWICE.]] |
| 152 | *** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=43AuJjuxqAw Thrice, now from one of Hasbro's animators!]] |
| 153 | ** Psycho Pinkie is usually referred to as Pinkamena, if not her full name from [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipISMagicS1E23TheCutieMarkChronicles The Cutie Mark Chronicles]], although the ''Cupcakes'' fic [[CowboyBebopAtHisComputer predates said episode]] and [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipisMagicS1E25PartyofOne Party Of One]]. |
| 154 | ** Cupcakes also seems to be a term for when Pinkie Pie gets furious, in a tamer use of it. |
| 155 | * Francis Pie hates X [[labelnote:explanation]]Pinkie Pie's discorded version frequently expressed hate for anything related to the scene, much like Francis from VideoGame/Left4Dead[[/labelnote]]. |
| 156 | * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oggEFjAJeXo Chocolate rain.]] [[labelnote:explanation]]In the Season 2 premiere, one of the signs of Discord's escape is chocolate rain from cotton-candy clouds. Cue Music/TayZonday songs set to ''MLP'' footage.[[/labelnote]] |
| 157 | ** Pinkie moves away from the mic to break the fourth wall. |
| 158 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2OOlZ__QzzM Here]] is a ponified version. |
| 159 | * [[ComicBook/{{Deadpool}} Pinkie Pool.]] [[labelnote:explanation]]There are more than a few parallels between the characters of Deadpool and Pinkie Pie - they're fourth wall breakers, id personified, wild cards, and {{Motor Mouth}}s.[[/labelnote]] |
| 160 | ** Chimicherries? Cherrychangas? Ooo! Chimicherrychangas! |
| 161 | * Many of Pinkie's lines as [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS2E13HearthsWarmingEve Chancellor Puddinghead]] have become quite prominent, but one in particular stands out, helped by the adorably [[LargeHam ridiculous]] smile she makes while saying it: |
| 162 | -->'''Chancellor Puddinghead''': [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uzOhDv9QgKA I am just about to be brilliant!]] |
| 163 | * [[http://derpibooru.org/tags/doomie Doomie]] [[labelnote:explanation]]In ''[[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS2E26ACanterlotWeddingPart2 A Canterlot Wedding Part 2]]'', Pinkie Pie asks a changeling to "Do me! Do me!" (and she's unimpressed with the impersonation that follows). This led to the changeling in question being nicknamed Doomie by the fandom, and inspired a series of four-panel comics where Doomie transforms into Pinkie, but not exactly the [[Fanfic/CupcakesSergeantSprinkles Pinkie]] [[WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyG3 she's]] [[WesternAnimation/{{MAD}} thinking]] [[WesternAnimation/PinkyAndTheBrain of]].[[/labelnote]] |
| 164 | * Workout Pinkie [[labelnote:explanation]]Which is Pinkie in her aerobics outfit from "A Friend In Deed" is used on many random pictures and captions.[[/labelnote]] |
| 165 | ** Housewife Pinkie [[labelnote:explanation]]Which is Pinkie wearing an apron while she cleans up her kitchen in "Baby Cakes" is used in a similar fashion.[[/labelnote]] |
| 166 | * [[http://derpibooru.org/tags/balloonie-pie Balloonie Pie]] [[labelnote:explanation]]When Twilight gets rid of one of the Pinkie clones in [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS3E3TooManyPinkiePies "Too Many Pinkie Pies"]], it inflates in a particularly strange-looking manner. Naturally, fans pounced on it like a pack of lions.[[/labelnote]] |
| 167 | ** Soon carried to pretty much every mane and background character. |
| 168 | * [[http://derpibooru.org/tags/pinkie-blind Pinkie Blind]] [[labelnote:explanation]]Also in [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS3E3TooManyPinkiePies "Too Many Pinkie Pies"]], one of Pinkie's clone briefly does the much more equine face of her [[WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyG3 G3 counterpart]], cue horrified reactions from the fans.[[/labelnote]] |
| 169 | ** As well, soon carried to pretty much every mane and background character. |
| 170 | * Pinkie's door reaction.[[labelnote:explanation]]In the comic, issue #4, the ponies scatter to open various doors in a spooky castle. Pinkie happily trots up to a door, opens it and is shocked by being face-to-face with a giant eyeball, and then slowly closes it, followed by her reaction "That was a '''terrible''' surprise!". Cue [[https://derpibooru.org/262787 exploitable]].[[/labelnote]] |
| 171 | * Pronking. [[labelnote:explanation]]Pinkie Pie's mode of movement - jumping with with all four legs simultaneously - [[AluminumChristmasTrees actually exists in the animal kingdom]]; it is known as "[[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pronking pronking]]". A fan has [[http://derpibooru.org/125144 noted]]: "I couldn't think of a [[InherentlyFunnyWords better name]] for how Pinkie moves if I tried".[[/labelnote]] |
| 172 | * Pinkie can't do stairs. [[labelnote:explanation]]At one point in "Princess Twilight, Part 2", Pinkie Pie falls down a flight of stairs in typical Pinkie Pie manner.[[/labelnote]] |
| 173 | * Creamy creamy frosting [[labelnote:explanation]]At one point in "Princess Twilight, Part 2", Pinkie Pie starts intensely daydreaming about "creamy creamy frosting" to the point of drooling slack-jawed.[[/labelnote]] |
| 174 | * Pinkie's ghost sister/Obsidian Pie[[labelnote:explanation]]Before being given a proper introduction in a later episode, the first appearance Pinkie's third sister Maud, on a picture during "Pinkie Pride", was considered a strange retcon by some, leading to the idea that she was a "ghost sister" that didn't appear in the CMC episode but in the picture. This subsequently led to 'shopping Maud (then given the fanon name Obsidian) into other scenes involving ghosts or similar events.[[/labelnote]] |
| 175 | * TO THE PARTY CAVE! [[labelnote:explanation]]Party Pooped revealed that Pinkie has a secret cave, accessible by trapdoor slide, in which she stores notes for all her party plans. Comparisons to Batman were inevitable.[[/labelnote]] |
| 176 | * PONK [[labelnote:explanation]]For whatever reason, it's common for online posters to intentionally misspell Pinkie Pie's name (Ponkie Poy, Panko,etc.) particularly in cases where she's doing very Pinkie-ish things. Of all them, variations of "Ponk" ended up being the most popular.[[/labelnote]] |
| 177 | * Pinkie fucked [[Music/WeirdAlYankovic Weird Al]].[[labelnote:explanation (spoilers!)]]In the show's DistantFinale, we learn that Pinkie Pie had a child with Cheese Sandwich -- essentially, [[InkSuitActor Weird Al in pony form]]. This one spread to the point that [[https://storygirl000.tumblr.com/post/188392347751 Weird Al himself]] acknowledged it.[[/labelnote]] |
| 178 | |
| 179 | [[AC:Rainbow Dash]] |
| 180 | * X needs to be about/is now [[TwentyPercentMoreAwesome 20% cooler]]. [[labelnote:explanation]]From Rainbow Dash's hilariously vague suggestions for her dress in "Suited for Success", "It just needs to be about 20% cooler." It's a very commonly used term in the fanbase with various uses, such as to say something needs improvement or to show approval, and has been used in tons of fanart.[[/labelnote]] |
| 181 | * [[PunctuatedForEmphasis Ten. Seconds. Flat.]] [[labelnote:explanation]]From the pilot, Rainbow Dash claiming she can clear the skies over Ponyville of stray clouds in "Ten seconds flat", and then delivering on that promise. It's used to describe things that could potentially be done very quickly.[[/labelnote]] |
| 182 | * LIVING THE DREAM! [[labelnote:explanation]]Rainbow Dash, who wants to go to the Grand Galloping Gala so she can show off for the Wonderbolts, says this to Twilight in "The Ticket Master" in an effort to convince Twilight to give her the extra ticket.[[/labelnote]] |
| 183 | * Wingboners. [[labelnote:explanation]]At the start of Pinkie Pie's stage show in "Over A Barrel", Rainbow Dash's wings are folded, but when PP appears in her show-girl outfit, RD's wings are spread. While it's easily seen as [[AccidentalInnuendo a small animation error or just a reaction of shock]], [[LesYay those who have a different idea]] on [[http://derpibooru.org/tags/wingboner what emotions wings express]] see this scene as [[SomethingElseAlsoRises a bit more telling]]. Notably, the Madmax comic came first, and just about anytime Rainbow Dash or another Pegasus has their wings spread, someone will shout "Wingboner!"[[/labelnote]] |
| 184 | ** Often used in conjunction with the infamous POMF =3 meme as the sound effect for said. |
| 185 | * Rainbow Dash's "So... ''awesome!"'' face now has an emoticon: /)^3^( %% (Hidden comment to prevent the backslash from being at the end of the line.) |
| 186 | * Hate detected. Fire the Orbital Friendship Beam. [[labelnote:explanation]]Rainbow Dash's Sonic Rainboom bearing a resemblance to a rainbow-colored KillSat.[[/labelnote]] |
| 187 | ** Atomic/Tactical Rainboom/nuke. [[labelnote:explanation]]"Lesson Zero" had Rainbow Dash demolish a barn with a Sonic Rainboom-like move which made a mushroom cloud.[[/labelnote]] |
| 188 | * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xwyIR598a_s RAINBOW DASH ALWAYS DRESSES IN STYLE.]] [[labelnote:explanation]]A video showing G4 Rainbow Dash reacting to her cutesy, ultra-girly G3.5 incarnation. It inspired similar videos featuring Scootaloo, Cheerilee, Pinkie Pie, and Sweetie Belle, all of whom share names with G3 ponies.[[/labelnote]] |
| 189 | * Rainbow Dash has balsa-wood wings. [[labelnote:explanation]]''The'' most common source of HurtComfortFic for this fandom is fanfic in which Rainbow Dash breaks her wings (which actually happens in the Canadian live show, though not onstage). It's reached the point where Equestria Daily has jokingly banned this sort of fic outright.[[/labelnote]] |
| 190 | ** Zig-zagged during Season 2. At first her "Atomic Rainboom" scene (see above) essentially nullified all of them. Later during "May the Best Pet Win!", Dash gets the tip of one wing pinned under a boulder and later has to have it bandaged up after being freed. This either gave the fics some credibility again, or killed them off for good, depending on how you look at it (her wings ''aren't'' immune to damage, but she only needed a bandage after a ''boulder'' fell on one of them). In "Read it and Weep," she does in fact break a wing, giving the fics credibility again, but again she walks it off in under a week, and while she certainly wasn't happy about the incident, she was more grumpy than "[[HurtComfortFic traumatized]]". |
| 191 | * Rainbow Dash dyes her mane. [[labelnote:explanation]]A fan art trend where Rainbow Dash is drawn dying her mane rainbow using either [[http://fav.me/d3enmqv a can of rainbow paint]] or [[http://fav.me/d4c8oc6 hair dye]] or [[http://fav.me/d3d30d0 bathing]] in a [[http://fav.me/d4fkplh pool of rainbow]] such as the ones seen on the episode "Sonic Rainboom".[[/labelnote]]. That this is possible is supported in the Magic Duel episode, wherein [[spoiler: Fluttershy is disguised as Rainbow Dash to make it appear that Twilight had successfully executed a Duplication spell in order to fool Trixie.]] |
| 192 | ** Even a ''fanfic'' was [[http://www.equestriadaily.com/2011/05/story-terrible-secret.html written]] about it. |
| 193 | ** A second fanfic followed, though [[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/7184406/1/Dashs_Secret it's not just Dash's natural color]] that's being hidden... |
| 194 | * Fans are trying to make a meme out of Rainbow's face in "May the Best Pet Win!" [[http://knowyourmeme.com/photos/202585-my-little-pony-friendship-is-magic Just look at her grin!]] |
| 195 | ** It also overlaps with another meme: "I like turtles." |
| 196 | * Rainbow Dash unmasking the Mysterious Mare Do Well, finding [[http://ponibooru.413chan.net/post/list/mare-do-well_unmasked/1 unexpected results]], and reacting somehow (almost identical to the ''Franchise/MassEffect'' gag with Shepard removing Tali's facemask). |
| 197 | * Rainbow Dash plus sunglasses (three times through the first 8 episodes of season 2, as well as in the Fashion Style Rainbow Dash toy, several licensed [[TheMerch shirts]], and the fanimation ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tJLL-DNu3P4 Epic Cupcake Time]]'') equals numerous "DEAL WITH IT" memes. |
| 198 | * Ninja Dash [[labelnote:explanation]]Rainbow slips on her very own stealth suit in order to break into the hospital.[[/labelnote]] |
| 199 | * [[http://www.ponibooru.org/post/list/Whats_Rainbow_Reading/1 What's Rainbow Reading?]] [[labelnote:explanation]]Photoshopped pics of Rainbow Dash being offered various books to read, and her reactions to them.[[/labelnote]] |
| 200 | * Rainbow Dash is a lesbian. [[labelnote:explanation]]The fandom has gone back and forth between (pun absolutely intended) DeadHorseTrope and UndeadHorseTrope with this accusation more times than anypony cares to count. The fact that she's a LauncherOfAThousandShips isn't helping.[[/labelnote]] |
| 201 | * Ropes. [[labelnote:explanation]]She has a tendency to end up tied with ropes by other characters. Fan often joke about the [[http://www.ponibooru.org/post/view/118139 sexual subtext]] that comes with it.[[/labelnote]] |
| 202 | * [[MurderousMalfunctioningMachine CRUSH! KILL! DESTROY!]] [[CatchPhrase SWAG!]] [[labelnote:explanation]]WebAnimation/PonyDotMov strikes again, this time with a malfunctioning RobotMe version of Rainbow Dash.[[/labelnote]] |
| 203 | * Rainbow Dash will have a boyfriend in Season 3. [[labelnote:explanation]]From [[https://twitpic.com/show/large/anqbog this]] image, which was made in July and quickly circulated around the fandom. But it was promptly {{Jossed}} by Creator/LaurenFaust [[https://twitter.com/aweleczka/status/239527694583353344 here]] on Twitter.[[/labelnote]] |
| 204 | * Rainbow Dash is [[Film/TopGun Iceman]]. [[labelnote:explanation]]From [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS3E7WonderboltsAcademy "Wonderbolts Academy"]], where Dash finds herself in the unusual role of being the voice of reason to a hot-headed showoff pony who keeps breaking flight safety regulations to make herself look more awesome. Which, since the entire episode is a huge homage to ''Film/TopGun'', means that she's the Iceman to Lightning Dust's Maverick.[[/labelnote]] |
| 205 | * Rainbow Dash bounces a ball.[[labelnote:explanation]]In "Read It and Weep" while Rainbow Dash is confined to a hospital bed there's a brief scene of her bouncing a ball against a wall. Several videos soon popped up extending this scene by [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3ugYlvsUrb8 increasing]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QxZijeEOVag lengths]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vldFDvSx2xs of]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fTXl_gInSAM time]].[[/labelnote]] |
| 206 | * [[http://derpibooru.org/search?sbq=two+words+meme&commit=Go Two Words.]] [[labelnote:explanation]]A panel in ''ComicBook/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicIDW'' has Rainbow Dash saying "Wait, idea! Two words: Time machine." It was quickly made an exploitable, with any Two Words of choice being substituted.[[/labelnote]] |
| 207 | * Smugdash. [[labelnote:explanation]]In "Daring Don't", Rainbow Dash makes [[https://derpibooru.org/491962 a very smug face]], similar to the "Bueno" 4chan face.[[/labelnote]] |
| 208 | * Alcoholic Dash. [[labelnote:explanation]]Rainbow Dash has shown herself to be obsessed with cider in ''Super Speedy Cider Squeezy 6000'' already, and as of ''Bats!'' this was brought up again.[[/labelnote]] |
| 209 | * Rainbow's stool/stooldash. [[labelnote:explanation]]After the airing of ''Testing, Testing, 1, 2, 3'', the image of a bored Rainbow rocking back and forth on her stool with a goofy grin caught on fast.[[/labelnote]] |
| 210 | * Rainbow Girrash. [[labelnote:explanation]]An animation error in the season 5 premiere caused Rainbow Dash to turn into a [[https://derpibooru.org/866275 rather disturbing abomination]] with an overly long neck.[[/labelnote]] |
| 211 | * DO I LOOK ANGRY?![[labelnote:explanation]]...said with Rainbow showcasing an extremely furious, pouty and condescending looking to the others during "Tanks for the Memories" when refusing to accept Tank needs to hibernate.[[/labelnote]] |
| 212 | * Rainbow Grinch[[labelnote:explanation]]Rainbow in scheming to sabotage the weather factory in "Tanks for the Memories" gains a smile worthy of the Grinch.[[/labelnote]] |
| 213 | * Manebow Sparkle[[labelnote:explanation]]Rainbow comments Twilight's notes in "The Lost Treasure of Griffonstone" are like she's actually there talking to them, and then proceeds to imitate Twilight reading from the book with her mane shifted to Twilight's signature style.[[/labelnote]] |
| 214 | * Apocalypse Dash[[labelnote:explanation]]In the Crystal War Timeline from ''The Cutie Re-Mark, Part 1'', Rainbow Dash's battle scars and prosthetic wing make her look extra badass. |
| 215 | [[/labelnote]] |
| 216 | * Kotobukiya Dash[[labelnote:explanation]]In a series of third-party Japanese figures of the series, [[https://derpibooru.org/tags/kotobukiya+rainbow+dash Rainbow Dash's design]] exploded in popularity due to being a great interpretation of the character.[[/labelnote]] |
| 217 | |
| 218 | [[AC:Fluttershy]] |
| 219 | * The Stare. [[labelnote:explanation]]Fluttershy's DeathGlare in "Stare Master" earned some infamy, with some fans joking she has [[Manga/OnePiece Haki]], [[Manga/{{Naruto}} a Sharingan]] or [[Anime/CodeGeass a Geass]], and contributes to her MemeticBadass reputation[[/labelnote]]. |
| 220 | ** YOU'RE GOING TO LOVE ME! [[labelnote:explanation]]Fluttershy's FreakOut during "The Best Night Ever", the same scene that inspired the "Flutterage" meme, became memetic for being completely unexpected and ''terrifying''.[[/labelnote]] |
| 221 | * Replacing the ''Series/CSIMiami'' "[[BigYes YEEAAAAAHH!]]" with [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DLTZctTG6cE Fluttershy's]] "[[FlatJoy Yay]]" from the ColdOpen of "Sonic Rainboom". |
| 222 | * Fluttertree. [[labelnote:explanation]]Stems from a conversation in "Over a Barrel" in which Pinkie Pie takes Rainbow Dash's sarcastic remark about Fluttershy being a tree at face value. Combined with Fluttershy's remark "I'd like to be a tree", it sparked a lot of half-joking debate as to whether or not Fluttershy is, in fact, a tree, or simply the pony equivalent of a furry. It also inspired a number of pictures of Fluttershy as a tree, often combined with the phrase "Leaf-ing the dream!" Much later, the ColdOpening of "Hurricane Fluttershy" has a scene in which Rainbow Dash addresses a tree as Fluttershy and said tree turns out to be Fluttershy trying to hide using a tree costume. Even later, [=WeLoveFine=] came out with [[TheMerch merchandise]] depicting Fluttershy as a tree or with a tree. Also [[https://www.reddit.com/r/mylittlepony/comments/jham9/scootaloo_in_a_tree/ combined with the scootachicken meme]] with a screencap from the earlier episode "Stare Master" featuring her with a chicken on her head, labelled as "Scootaloo in a tree".[[/labelnote]] |
| 223 | * In the episode "Green isn't Your Color", a shot of a magazine cover featuring a mopey-looking Fluttershy with black streaks in her hair inspired a brief burst of "[[https://derpibooru.org/tags/emoshy Emoshy]]" art. |
| 224 | * Flutteryay [[labelnote:explanation]]Fluttershy's expression when she "yaaay"s at Rainbow Dash in "[[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS1E16SonicRainboom yay]] Sonic Rainboom". Sometimes grafted onto other characters, sometimes used for censorship of explicit dialogs in fan comics.[[/labelnote]] |
| 225 | * Fluttershy is [[BlatantLies very loud.]] [[labelnote:explanation]]Most videos on youtube featuring Fluttershy (usually videos lasting less then 10 seconds) doing something that makes quiet noises (screaming, for example) will almost always have people complaining about how loud the video is, despite the truth being the opposite.[[/labelnote]] |
| 226 | ** Tying into that, Fluttershy as the [[VideoGame/TheElderScrollsVSkyrim Dragonborn]] is ''incredibly'' common. FUS RO [--[[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS1E16SonicRainboom yay]]--]! |
| 227 | ** Alternatively, she's [[BlatantLies violent]]. |
| 228 | ** Fluttershy is [[BlatantLies weak and helpless]]. [[labelnote:explanation]]In ''The Return of Harmony Part 1'', Discord attempts to get Fluttershy riled up in order to discord her, but Fluttershy instead fullheartedly and quietly agrees with everything he's saying about her, including that she's "weak and helpless", much to the hilarity of the fans who have seen her face dragons and manticores alike, [[StaringDownCthulhu staring down a]] [[DeadlyGaze cockatrice]], and many other awesome deeds. Many insist that she has [[HoistByHisOwnPetard trolled]] [[{{Troll}} Discord]]. A few videos on Youtube have Fluttershy saying she's weak and helpless, followed by a montage of her Moments of Awesome.[[/labelnote]] |
| 229 | * Fightershy / Flutterninja / Flutterzangief. [[labelnote:explanation]]Fluttershy wrestling with a bear in "Lesson Zero" (even if she was actually giving it a chiropractic massage). It didn't take long for the ''Franchise/StreetFighter'' and ''Franchise/MortalKombat'' inspired [[http://ponibooru.413chan.net/post/view/72192?search=fluttershy images]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SKdHiYxTZn8 videos]] to come out[[/labelnote]] |
| 230 | * Fluttershy's HiddenDepths. [[labelnote:explanation]]In the episode "Suited For Success" Fluttershy [[MotorMouth rather quickly]] points out the flaws in Rarity's dress (before quickly reverting to her usual timid self), despite not showing any obvious knowledge about dressmaking previously. This has been reused in fanfics, showing Fluttershy's HiddenDepths about pretty much everything she does, before going shy again and saying something along the lines of "But, you know, however you do it is fine..."[[/labelnote]] |
| 231 | * Fluttershy crying over Philomena's DisneyDeath in "A Bird in the Hoof" inspired a string of pics in which she is seen watching a sad or touching scene (like the death of WesternAnimation/{{Bambi}}'s mother, the death of [[VideoGame/FinalFantasyVII Aerith]], the death of [[WesternAnimation/TheLandBeforeTime Littlefoot's]] mother, or the ending of ''WesternAnimation/ToyStory3''). A less popular version is where she actually ''smiles'', basically watching anything to make her happy instead (or for those with a cruel sense of humor, something that starts out looking innocent, like the movie adaptation of ''Literature/WatershipDown'' or an episode of ''WebAnimation/HappyTreeFriends''). |
| 232 | ** Later expanded to manipulated images depicting ''any'' character reacting differently to ''anything'', such as Twilight enjoying an educational program like ''Series/BillNyeTheScienceGuy'', Applejack being disgusted by a B-movie or reality TV, Rainbow Dash watching an action movie, Spike watching Anime/Sentai/ giant robot or monster shows, or Derpy Hooves watching something downright surreal. |
| 233 | ** There briefly existed a variant with Pinkie Pie having phone calls with other characters, such as [[WesternAnimation/TheCritic Jay Sherman]], [[VideoGame/GrandTheftAutoIV Niko Bellic]] or [[Series/StarTrekTheNextGeneration Captain Picard]]. |
| 234 | * Flutterjuice/Juiceboxshy. [[labelnote:explanation]]Originated in [[http://SorcerusHorserus.deviantart.com/art/Dash-Academy-2-Hot-Flank-Part4-257655358 this page]] of Webcomic/DashAcademy, a fancomic, and popularized by [[http://askfluttershyandpinkiepie.tumblr.com/ this Ask Tumblr]]. It's about Fluttershy's liking of juiceboxes. It has since then [[http://derpibooru.org/tags/flutterjuice spread]] to other ask Tumblrs and fan art.[[/labelnote]] |
| 235 | * [[WesternAnimation/FatAlbertAndTheCosbyKids Hey hey hey,]] stay out of my shed! [[labelnote:explanation]]How Fluttershy from WebAnimation/PonyDotMov ends most of her lines, hinting at her DarkSecret and perhaps a piece of SchmuckBait.[[/labelnote]] |
| 236 | * Fluttermat [[labelnote:explanation]]The same as Fluttertree above, but with Fluttershy as a doormat instead. Stems from Rarity's description of Fluttershy's attitude in ''"Putting Your Hoof Down"''[[/labelnote]] |
| 237 | * Hootershy / Flutterack [[labelnote:explanation]]Anthropomorphised Fluttershy art tends to depict her with an abundant bustline, for any number of reasons ranging from an interpretation of her motherly instincts and {{Moe}} personality to AuthorAppeal. Eventually, nicknames were made on Derpibooru for other characters depicted with a large bust, making this meme no longer limited to Fluttershy alone. Here's a [[http://derpibooru.org/307124 picture]] that shares some of the names given.[[/labelnote]] |
| 238 | ** Related to the above, Fluttersweater [[labelnote:explanation]]Anthro-Fluttershy tends to be a SexySweaterGirl.[[/labelnote]] |
| 239 | * Futashy [[labelnote:explanation]]Drawing Fluttershy as a hermaphrodite.[[/labelnote]] |
| 240 | * Fluttershy is an honorary Japanese. [[labelnote:explanation]]When fansubbed versions of the show began to show up on Website/NicoNicoDouga, Japanese fans decided that Fluttershy's similarity to the YamatoNadeshiko archetype meant she was honorarily Japanese. Although mostly localized to Japan, a few articles and blogs have brought the meme to the attention of Western fans.[[/labelnote]] |
| 241 | * Fluttershy confirmed for [[WorstWhateverEver worst pegasus]].[[labelnote:explanation]]Fluttershy's AcrophobicBird tendencies, especially when [[ForgotICouldFly she had to be saved from falling]] by Cloudchaser (another Pegasus) in [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS3E7WonderboltsAcademy Wonderbolts Academy]].[[/labelnote]] |
| 242 | * Bad Advice Fluttershy[[labelnote:explanation]]Coming from the [[ComicBook/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicIDW comic series]], one panel in the third issue has Fluttershy leaning out of a rounded frame, providing explanation what is going on off-panel. Stripping away the spoken text leaves a [[http://derpibooru.org/236811 perfect exploitable]] for Fluttershy to give bad advice, such as "[[http://derpibooru.org/236852 Always use Comic Sans]]".[[/labelnote]] |
| 243 | * "Nature is so fascinating"[[labelnote:explanation]]Also from the comic, an exploitable of a weird or eerie natural thing, followed by the comic panel of Fluttershy looking on in awe, saying "Nature is so fascinating".[[/labelnote]] |
| 244 | * Kyubeyshy[[labelnote:explanation]]When it was announced that Creator/EmiriKatou would voice Fluttershy in the Japanese dub, it started a wave of fanart depicting Fluttershy as Kyubey from Anime/PuellaMagiMadokaMagica, which was one of the characters that Emiri Katou previously voiced.[[/labelnote]] |
| 245 | * [[http://derpibooru.org/tags/dangerous+mission+outfit Dangerous Mission Outfit]][[labelnote:explanation]]The cute bunny-eared "Stealth Suit" Rarity makes Fluttershy wear for when they sneak her out of Ponyville during the events of [[{{Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS3E5MagicDuel}} Magic Duel]] became quite an IconicOutfit for her.[[/labelnote]] |
| 246 | * Flutterbat [[labelnote:explanation]]In "[[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS4E7Bats Bats!]]", Twilight's initial solution to the fruitbat problem turns Fluttershy part bat.[[/labelnote]] |
| 247 | ** Sweet, juicy Applejack... [[labelnote:explanation]]Because the vampire fruit bats in, what else, "[[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS4E7Bats Bats!]]" suck the juices from apples, there's a lot of fanart and fanfics about Fluttershy biting Applejack's flank.[[/labelnote]] |
| 248 | * [[http://derpicdn.net/img/2014/1/25/533946/large.png Fluttershy's Explorer Outfit]] [[labelnote:explanation]]The hat and bandana Fluttershy wears at the beginning of [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS4E11ThreesACrowd Three's a Crowd]] as she leaves to study the Breezies.[[/labelnote]] |
| 249 | * Flutterbee. [[labelnote:explanation]]The bee costume that Fluttershy wears when trying to save Seabreeze from bees in [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS4E16ItAintEasyBeingBreezies It Ain't Easy Being Breezies]].[[/labelnote]] |
| 250 | * Otakushy. [[labelnote:explanation]]Fluttershy being a fan of anime/manga has been an idea floating around for a while, but "The Scare-Master" cements this in show canon.[[/labelnote]] |
| 251 | * [[https://derpibooru.org/images/1168583 GET A JOB]][[labelnote:explanation]]When the plot synopsis for "[[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS6E12FlutterBrutter Flutter Brutter]]" was leaked (Fluttershy's unemployed brother moves in [[TakingAdvantageOfGenerosity and mooches off of her]]), comparisons to the WesternAnimation/SpongeBobSquarePants episode "[[Recap/SpongeBobSquarePantsS3E7AsSeenOnTVCanYouSpareADime Can You Spare a Dime?]]" were drawn ''immediately.''[[/labelnote]] |
| 252 | |
| 253 | [[AC:Rarity]] |
| 254 | * Dumb Rock! [[labelnote:explanation]]Said by Filly Rarity in "The Cutie Mark Chronicles" when her horn leads her to an apparently-ordinary rock.[[/labelnote]] |
| 255 | * No one must ever know that I am part marshmallow! [[labelnote:explanation]]A shot of Rarity reaching towards the camera from "A Dog and Pony Show", with her hooves drawn in a way that they resemble marshmallows, inspired a string of jokes about Rarity actually being a marshmallow, much like "Fluttertree" and "Scootachicken". This, in turn, led to jokes about Rarity's sister Sweetie Belle being a marshmallow too (with "For Whom the Sweetie Belle Toils" having a [[http://derpibooru.org/582067 couple]] [[http://derpibooru.org/582093 moments]] that adds more fuel to the meme). "Marshmallow pony" was eventually used by [[TheMerch WeLoveFine]] to refer to Rarity in the online description and tags of their ''Rarity Nouveau'' [[http://www.welovefine.com/product.php?id_product=1646 art print]] [[http://www.welovefine.com/product.php?id_product=1647 and]] [[http://www.welovefine.com/product.php?id_product=1648 shirt]].[[/labelnote]] |
| 256 | ** Marshmelodrama[[labelnote:explanation]]Any breakdown by Rarity fits this.[[/labelnote]] |
| 257 | * THIIIIIS IIIIIIS WHIIIIINIIIIINNG! [[labelnote:explanation]][[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pw4vHMXqEt4 Rarity in "A Dog and Pony Show"]]. The line quoted here is usually the first part to be exaggerated, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xSrBbsSu4XI as seen here.]][[/labelnote]] |
| 258 | * [[https://derpibooru.org/tags/rariquest Rariquest]] [[labelnote:explanation]]The [[http://binaryninj4.deviantart.com/art/Traveler-205433093 vector]] of Rarity being pulled to "her destiny" in [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS1E23TheCutieMarkChronicles "The Cutie Mark Chronicles"]] has been edited into a variety of images showing poor Rarity getting dragged everywhere, ala [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ygI-2F8ApUM BRODYQUEST]]. It even has its own [[http://raritybeingdraggedtoherdestiny.tumblr.com/ Ask Tumblr blog]].[[/labelnote]] |
| 259 | * [[CargoShip Rarity x Tom OTP!]] [[labelnote:explanation]]In part 2 of the Season 2 premiere, Rarity continues to haul the rock around that Discord made her think was a ginormous diamond and named it Tom.[[/labelnote]] |
| 260 | ** Dan the boulder. [[labelnote:explanation]]Prior to part two, the boulder was dubbed "Dan" by fans due to Youtube captions, the same way Steven Magnet was named. When part two aired and Rarity named him Tom, people compromised and decided his name was Tom Dan.[[/labelnote]] |
| 261 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EiPy2woAZE4 "Look Out! Here Comes Tom!"]] [[labelnote:explanation]]A scene with Tom hurled out of a window resulted in jokes of him being replaced with anyone else named Tom.[[/labelnote]] |
| 262 | ** According to his [[http://data.mlpmerch.com/tc/card/tom/ collectible card]], Tom was the rock used in "Too Many Pinkie Pies" to block the entrance to the Mirror Pool. |
| 263 | * <Mundane problem> Of all the worst things that could happen, this is the. WORST! ''POSSIBLE!'' ''' ''THING!'' ''' [[labelnote:explanation]]Rarity being a hammy drama queen in "Lesson Zero", since snowcloned into Rarity reacting this way to mundane situations.[[/labelnote]] |
| 264 | * "I'll show you something worthy of Canterlot!" [[labelnote:explanation]]From "Sweet and Elite", after Rarity gets ridiculed by some upper-class ponies for being "country", she retreats to her suite at Canterlot castle, says this line, and whips up a design for Twilight's new dress. It inspired a meme where Rarity says her line, and is shown to draw something silly, then react to it with delight or disgust as appropriate.[[/labelnote]] |
| 265 | * Rarity is Jewish. [[labelnote:explanation]]Amongst the many drawings of ponies doing Christmas activities, the fans have decided - for unclear reasons, but possibly based on either the accent used by [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS2E5SisterhoovesSocial their mother]] or an old ReligiousStereotype about tailors or jewelers being Jewish - to have Rarity and Sweetie Belle celebrate Hanukkah. One Equestria Daily banner even shows them playing dreidel with Pinkie Pie and losing heavily.[[/labelnote]] |
| 266 | ** Not too much of a stretch. Her parents can be described as stereotypically middle-class New York Jewish from their appearance in "Sisterhooves Social"; and Rarity herself has displayed some Jewish Princess tendencies from time to time (albeit considerably more generous and less spoiled than the stereotypical JP, though just as much a drama queen). |
| 267 | * Rarity's newspaper reaction. [[labelnote:explanation]]A three panel image exploitable, based on Rarity reading the school paper in "Ponyville Confidential". The top and bottom shots are of Rarity reading the paper intently, and a shocked reaction, but the order may change to justify the joke around the middle panel. Also has been used as "implied facehoof" reaction images, as at one point, Rarity's look while holding the newspaper is similar to Creator/TommyLeeJones' implied facepalm in ''Film/NoCountryForOldMen'' as blunt non-vocal criticism of a stupid idea.[[/labelnote]] |
| 268 | ** "I'LL DESTROY HER!" [[labelnote:explanation]]Also from "Ponyville Confidentional", Rarity's reaction to finding out that Gabby Gums wrote an article about ''her''. This quote is often used in tandem with the above.[[/labelnote]] |
| 269 | * Bend over [[labelnote:explanation]]Rarity being depicted as a MemeticMolester often telling others to "bend over".[[/labelnote]] |
| 270 | * Anaface Rarity. [[labelnote:explanation]]A picture of Rarity scoring a 0/10 on the Anaface web program plus a negative reaction has become popular. Showing other characters (such as Derpy, Tom or Pinkie) who get a higher score on the program in addition to her reaction has become mildly memetic.[[/labelnote]] |
| 271 | * Rarity vs. a [[GiantEnemyCrab Giant Crab.]] [[labelnote:explanation]]Similar to the Trixie eating pinecones thing, a Deviantart user asked for several pictures of Rarity fighting a giant crab. He got them. The absurdity of this led to much more fanart of Rarity fighting giant crabs.[[/labelnote]] |
| 272 | * I WHIP MY TAIL BACK AND FORTH! [[labelnote:explanation]]A video loop of Rarity whipping her tail back and forth in Friendship is Magic Part 2 overdubbed by a sample from Willow Smith's song "Whip My Hair".[[/labelnote]] |
| 273 | * Raricow [[labelnote:explanation]]Drawing Rarity as a cow has apparently become a thing in Japan.[[/labelnote]] |
| 274 | * And then there's Rarity [[labelnote:explanation]]Popularized in EQD's recaps of S4 episodes, generally when an in-show scene or joke is based on Rarity doing something with her type of flair contrasting to the other Manes.[[/labelnote]] |
| 275 | * Rariball [[labelnote:explanation]]A photoshop meme featuring Rarity curled up in a ball. The image originates in a scene from the Season 6 episode “The Gift of Maud Pie”. The scene takes place when Rarity is imitating Pinkie Pie’s normal personality, referencing how she is different than usual.[[/labelnote]] |
| 276 | * Prunity [[labelnote:explanation]]The opening scene in "Applejack's "Day" Off" featured a gag in which Rarity is left in a steam room for too long, causing her face and horn to wrinkle and prune up.[[/labelnote]] |
| 277 | * NANOCRYSTALS, DARLING! [[labelnote:explanation]]There have been multiple comments of Rarity paraphrasing [[VideoGame/MetalGearRisingRevengeance a certain US Senator with superhuman abilities]]. Examples of such comments can be found [[https://uc77.deviantart.com/art/ITS-SHOWTIME-307608007 here]], [[https://jose-ramiro.deviantart.com/art/Boxing-You-vs-Rarity-352365309 here]], [[https://derpibooru.org/881532 here]], [[https://derpibooru.org/1394501 here]], and [[https://derpibooru.org/1335926 here]]. [[/labelnote]] |
| 278 | * Fainting couch [[labelnote:explanation]]The red and golden chaise longue which Rarity persuses to faint or cry on. Plus Rarity's Pie-like ability and tendency to pull one in from seemingly nowhere.[[/labelnote]] |
| 279 | * "When I get back, you're gonna get it, Rainbow Dash...!" [[labelnote:explanation]]At the end of "The Last Roundup," because Rainbow Dash leaves Pinkie Pie and Rarity behind while chasing Applejack, they have to drive a handcar all the way back to Ponyville, with Rarity angrily muttering that she's going to get Rainbow Dash back for this. When the next episode, "Read It and Weep," was revealed to be about Rainbow Dash getting injured, people started joking that Rarity beat up Rainbow Dash and put her in the hospital as revenge.[[/labelnote]] |
| 280 | |
| 281 | [[AC:Spike]] |
| 282 | * Tailboner. [[labelnote:explanation]]The same thing as a wingboner, but for Spike's tail.[[/labelnote]] |
| 283 | ** Pictures of Spike using his tail for digging from "A Dog And Pony Show" with the caption "[[Series/{{Community}} I have the weirdest boner right now]]." |
| 284 | * Spike is quickly becoming identified as a stoner. [[labelnote:explanation]]Similarly to the Bedroom Eyes meme above, the RunningJoke of someone pausing a clip of an episode and seeing Spike with an expression of someone with cannabinoid intoxication. That, and his [[TheStoner portrayal]] in later WebAnimation/PonyDotMov episodes.[[/labelnote]] |
| 285 | * Lame Pickup Line Spike. [[labelnote:explanation]][[http://s3.amazonaws.com/kym-assets/entries/icons/original/000/006/136/spikeflirt.png?1308543070 An image from "Boast Busters"]] with Spike trying to seduce Rarity with cheesy lines and bad innuendos.[[/labelnote]] |
| 286 | * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fya-4TbURNc EPIC SAX SPIKE!]] [[labelnote:explanation]]The Pony Anthology features a small bit of Spike playing the saxophone, and it was combined with the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VrdwhXNt4qw "Epic Sax Guy"]] meme from 2010 Series/EurovisionSongContest.[[/labelnote]] |
| 287 | * [[http://ponibooru.413chan.net/post/list/spike_is_rainbow_dash/1 Congratulations, Spike! You're the new Rainbow Dash!]] [[labelnote:explanation]]In part 2 of the Season 2 premiere, Rainbow Dash is missing and thus they have no Element of Loyalty. Twilight, who is stressed out and in a hurry, gives Spike the Element of Loyalty necklace and says he's the "new Rainbow Dash".[[/labelnote]] |
| 288 | ** "That won't end well..." [[labelnote:explanation]]Right after Twilight makes Spike the new Rainbow Dash, he's afraid of what will happen to him once Rainbow Dash finds out. This has led to various images of what would happen when [[http://ponibooru.413chan.net/post/view/63085 Rainbow Dash finally does confront him on the matter.]][[/labelnote]] |
| 289 | ** Pega-Spike [[labelnote:explanation]]Spike transformed into a Pegasus has appeared in many fanarts and at least one fanfic, starting from back in season 1. More recent fanart naturally depicts his Pegasus version as a recolor of Rainbow Dash, thanks to the previous meme.[[/labelnote]] |
| 290 | * And then Spike died. [[labelnote:explanation]]Early on in Luna Eclipsed, Rainbow Dash scares Pinkie, Spike and some fillies with her lightning cloud. Spike promptly passes out, and is carried off by Twilight; because of his shaking and drooling, nearly every online chat about the episode will invariably include a "Spike died." comment.[[/labelnote]] |
| 291 | * Spike is the new main character. [[labelnote:explanation]]Until "Sweet and Elite", Spike had appeared in more episodes of Season 2 than Twilight Sparkle, who was missing from "Sisterhooves Social", and was only one of two characters (the other, humorously enough, being Applejack) to appear in every season 2 episode up to that point. This meme has since become heavily ironic as Spike hasn't appeared on the show regularly since "Hearth's Warming Eve."[[/labelnote]] |
| 292 | * Spike is unemployed. [[labelnote:explanation]]The response to Spike becoming more and more OutOfFocus as the show goes on, mainly considering that he no longer writes letters to Princess Celestia, and the characters just dictate the moral of the episode in a narrative voice instead.[[/labelnote]] |
| 293 | * SPIKE WANT! [[labelnote:explanation]]In "Secret of My Excess", Spike goes into a rapid growth spurt and displays the infamous dragon greed. As he gets bigger, his speech gradually devolves into yelling [[HulkSpeak "SPIKE WANT!"]].[[/labelnote]] |
| 294 | ** Run! It's Spikezilla! [[labelnote:explanation]]Also from "Secret of My Excess", Spike's form at his peak size drew a lot of comparisons to the first American version of ''Film/{{Godzilla|1998}}''.[[/labelnote]] |
| 295 | * Spike's Business Card [[labelnote:explanation]]From "Spike At Your Service", Spike holds up a card containing his personal Dragon Code, making it a perfect exploitable.[[/labelnote]] |
| 296 | [[/folder]] |
| 297 | |
| 298 | [[folder:The Cutie Mark Crusaders]] |
| 299 | [[AC:General]] |
| 300 | * Photoshopping fake cutie marks onto the Cutie Mark Crusaders. (Bonus points if it's the cutie marks belonging to the previous generation versions of the Crusaders.) |
| 301 | * The Sex Pit [[labelnote:explanation]]The Crusaders' solution to the problem they caused in ''Hearts and Hooves Day'' involved getting Big Macintosh to fall into a deep pit they dug with a matress at the bottom. The fun here comes in the form of shopping in other characters and/or altering the Crusaders' reactions. The fact that Cheerilee called it a feather bed only gave the meme more credibility when the word feather was implied to be a PrecisionFStrike in Putting Your Hoof Down.[[/labelnote]] |
| 302 | * Crusader [=4koma/Reaction=] Crusaders [[labelnote:explanation]]Also from ''Hearts and Hooves Day'', the Crusader's faces when they're hiding in a bush [[http://img.ponibooru.org/_images/31a77fcb71dfde351154b541be329923/130372%20-%20apple_bloom%20Cutie_Mark_Crusaders%20gaijin_4koma%20hearts_and_hooves_day%20Reaction_guys%20scootaloo%20Sweetie_Belle.png bears more than a passing resemblance to the Gaijin 4koma/Reaction Guys meme]].[[/labelnote]] |
| 303 | * '''CUTIE MARK CRUSADERS, (fill-in-the-blank), YAY!!!!!'''[[labelnote:explanation]]A MadLibsCatchPhrase the Crusaders use throughout "Stare Master", although [[NeverLiveItDown it doesn't show in any other episodes]]. However, fans make up something to add between "Cutie Mark Crusaders" & "yay!"[[/labelnote]] |
| 304 | |
| 305 | [[AC:Apple Bloom]] |
| 306 | * ONE. DAY. [[labelnote:explanation]]in "Sisterhooves Social", Apple Bloom lets Sweetie Belle borrow Applejack for the contest, but makes sure she understands it's only temporary. This line [[http://www.welovefine.com/product.php?id_product=1230 made it onto]] an [[TheMerch officially licensed shirt]] in less than a week after the episode's premiere.[[/labelnote]] |
| 307 | * Applecopter. [[labelnote:explanation]]In "The Cutie Pox", one of Apple Bloom's loop-de-hoop tricks involves spinning the hoop around her tail fast enough that she takes off like a helicopter.[[/labelnote]] |
| 308 | * "[[http://ponibooru.413chan.net/post/list/My_Sister%27s_Speaking_in_x/1 My Sister's Speaking [X]!]]" [[labelnote:explanation]]A snowclone spawned from another scene in "The Cutie Pox", where Apple Bloom gets a fleur-de-lis cutie mark that causes her to compulsively speak French, to which a baffled and horrified Applejack remarks "My sister's speakin' Fancy!" This scene inspired a few comics where Apple Bloom is forced to speak in other "languages", such as Chinese, British English, "Internet", Wingdings, and [[VideoGame/TheElderScrollsIVOblivion Daedric]].[[/labelnote]] |
| 309 | ** Gangsta Bloom [[labelnote:explanation]]The fleur-de-lis is also the gang sign of [[VideoGame/SaintsRow the 3rd Street Saints]]. This has not passed the fans by.[[/labelnote]] |
| 310 | * Apple Dictionary [[labelnote:explanation]]Like Sweetie Belle before her, in ''Family Appreciation Day'', it's Apple Bloom's turn to be called a dictionary following her lamentations about Granny Smith representing her family on the eponymous day.[[/labelnote]] |
| 311 | * Bunny Bloom [[labelnote:explanation]]Apple Bloom wears a rabbit suit in Family Appreciation Day. The fans think it makes her [[RuleOfCute extremely]] [[{{Moe}} cute]].[[/labelnote]] |
| 312 | * Pikabloom [[labelnote:explanation]]Similar to Kyubeyshy, Apple Bloom gets this nickname and a bunch of fanart of her in a Pikachu costume due to her Japanese voice, Creator/IkueOtani, being the same as [[Anime/PokemonTheSeries Pikachu]].[[/labelnote]] |
| 313 | * "Buy some apples!" being used to visibly "bleep" out dirty words in fan comics. |
| 314 | |
| 315 | [[AC:Scootaloo]] |
| 316 | * Scootabuse [[labelnote:explanation]]When asked whether Scootaloo is Rainbow Dash's little sister Creator/LaurenFaust said no, stating that Dash would not be a good big sister. Some fans took this a little too far, which resulted in various fanarts depicting Rainbow Dash physically abusing Scootaloo, some more gruesome than others. On the other hand, [[http://mixermike622.deviantart.com/art/You-re-The-Best-244020273 this comic]] strongly suggests that Rainbow Dash doesn't necesarily need to be [[AbusiveParents the one doing the abusing.]] It also, however, leads us right into...[[/labelnote]] |
| 317 | ** Scootalove [[labelnote:explanation]]Formed as a reaction to Scootabuse, consisting of ''heartwarming'' fanart and fanfics about Rainbow Dash and Scootaloo. This has, in turn, led to such things as "[=ScootaBDSM=]" and other bizarre images.[[/labelnote]] |
| 318 | ** Not really ''confirmed'' {{Jossed}}, but the ending to "Sleepless in Ponyville" seems to imply that Scootalove is the canon relationship between the two as of now. |
| 319 | * Scootachicken [[labelnote:explanation]]Apple Bloom calling Scootaloo a chicken in "Stare Master" inspired a lot of jokes about Scootaloo being a ''literal'' chicken, and even led to [[TheMerch officially licensed shirts]] featuring [[http://www.welovefine.com/img/p/1194-3428.jpg Scootaloo]] [[http://www.welovefine.com/img/p/1194-3429.jpg as]] [[http://www.welovefine.com/img/p/1196-3433.jpg a]] [[http://www.welovefine.com/img/p/1196-3434.jpg chick]] and [[http://www.welovefine.com/product.php?id_product=1503 Scootaloo with a chicken (and Winona)]]. This meme is sometimes combined with "Scootabuse", depicting Kentucky Fried Scootaloo and Scootaloo-flavored ramen noodles, and with Fluttertree.[[/labelnote]] |
| 320 | ** Pinkie Pie dressing up as a chicken for Nightmare Night spawned a few more jokes about this. |
| 321 | ** Scootadodo [[labelnote:explanation]]And ''then'' jokes emerged of Scootaloo being a dodo, after a clip from the season 2 premiere was posted in which Sweetie Belle calls Scootaloo a dodo.[[/labelnote]] |
| 322 | * Cutealoo [[labelnote:explanation]]This is used mainly when a particularly cute pose or picture of Scootaloo is referenced, such as when Twilight says "Good Friends" in "Lesson Zero: and sees Scootaloo cutely crouched down.[[/labelnote]] |
| 323 | * [[https://derpibooru.org/tags/chickun Chickun]] [[labelnote:explanation]]A variant of the "bedroom eyes" meme in which the eyes are accompanied by a bizarre mouth expression. Sometimes used alongside "arise" and "shitpost". Has become a DiscreditedMeme by this time.[[/labelnote]] |
| 324 | |
| 325 | [[AC:Sweetie Belle]] |
| 326 | * Sweetieabuse. [[labelnote:explanation]]In much the same way as Scootabuse, Sweetie Belle isn't immune to being treated badly by her sister. Various fanart depicts her as actually being an illegitimate child of Rarity's by whom she's very embarrassed. She's also depicted as being a [[TheDitz ditz]] and [[Franchise/HarryPotter living in a cupboard under the stairs]].[[/labelnote]] |
| 327 | * Sweetie Derelle. [[labelnote:explanation]]Another unflattering depiction of Sweetie Belle being an extremely loud annoying sibling - specifically, [[https://www.deviantart.com/thedarklordkeisha/art/SHUT-UP-SHUT-UP-SHUT-UP-213481198 a picture of her]] shouting a long string of capit[[InterruptingMeme AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA]]l A's is used to flag threads with {{NSFW}} content. Naturally, it's been photoshopped to look like other characters.[[/labelnote]] |
| 328 | * Sweetie Dictionary [[labelnote:explanation]]Not long after the season 2 premiere aired, Scootaloo's remark "What are you, a dictionary?" inspired pictures of Sweetie Belle as a dictionary.[[/labelnote]] |
| 329 | * Dumb Fabric! [[labelnote:explanation]]Said by Sweetie Belle in "The Show Stoppers" when a roll of fabric gets away from her. Made into [[http://www.welovefine.com/product.php?id_product=736 a]] [[http://www.welovefine.com/product.php?id_product=737 shirt]] & [[http://www.welovefine.com/product.php?id_product=1285 hoodie]].[[/labelnote]] |
| 330 | * "I, uh, really like her mane..." in response to a fan's OC pony (most of which aren't really that great, due to Sturgeon's Law). The quote comes from Sweetie Belle's original reaction in being forcefully offered a raggedy old doll named "Smarty Pants" by a crazy Twilight. |
| 331 | ** Has since expanded to a response to just about anything. |
| 332 | * It's becoming popular to post various images inside Sweetie Belle's thought bubble in "Sisterhooves Social". |
| 333 | * Sweetie Slide/Scootie Belle [[labelnote:explanation]]A scene from Sisterhooves Social where Sweetie [[http://crunchnugget.deviantart.com/art/Scootie-Belle-267558044 slides across the floor]] using her hind legs. [[http://www.welovefine.com/product.php?id_product=1219 Has]] [[http://www.welovefine.com/product.php?id_product=1343 subsequently]] [[http://www.welovefine.com/product.php?id_product=1802 appeared]] [[http://www.welovefine.com/product.php?id_product=2432 on]] [[TheMerch officially licensed apparel]].[[/labelnote]] |
| 334 | * Sweetie Bot [[labelnote:explanation]]As re-imagined in the AbridgedSeries "WebVideo/FriendshipIsWitchcraft", Sweetie Belle is actually a robot, given a robotic voice (think a cuter version of [[VideoGame/{{Portal}} Glados]]), and has questionable means to an end.[[/labelnote]] |
| 335 | * "OH, COME ON!" [[labelnote:explanation]]Sweetie Belle's reaction in "Hearts & Hooves Day" when Cheerilee and Big Macintosh fail to hit it off the first time, used in response to an unexpected result of a highly anticipated event.[[/labelnote]] |
| 336 | * Squeaky Belle [[labelnote:explanation]]A FanNickname due to Sweetie Belle's voice cracking and abruptly changes pitch a lot. It has noticeably toned down as Creator/ClaireCorlett's voice has matured.[[/labelnote]] |
| 337 | * Golden Sweetie Belle / Sweetie Gold [[labelnote:explanation]]Many have made note of Sweetie Belle's pretty appearance due to her being covered with golden luster dust in "One Bad Apple". She has been associated with [[WesternAnimation/{{Futurama}} Bender]] in a strange mashup with the [[WebVideo/FriendshipIsWitchcraft Sweetie Bot]] meme, as well as [[Franchise/StarWars C-3P0]].[[/labelnote]] |
| 338 | * Milkshake Sweetie Belle [[labelnote:explanation]]During the Babs Seed song, Sweetie Belle is seen drinking from a Milkshake while bobbing with the song. Its cuteness is reminiscent of the Juicebox/Fluttershy meme.[[/labelnote]] |
| 339 | * {{Squee}}tie Belle, after a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m-UNcUozz3I certain little moment]] in "Just For Sidekicks." |
| 340 | * Sweetie's Note[[labelnote:explanation]]An exploitable based on [[http://derpibooru.org/262333 this comic]], though with several variations, including panel reordering and altering the last one into various expressions for Sweetie Belle.[[/labelnote]] |
| 341 | * Diasweeties [[labelnote:explanation]]It's commonly agreed Sweetie Belle is the cutest of the trio (if not one of the show's cutest characters) with factors including her voice, her appearance, and just her overall sweetness. The term has snowcloned to numerous portmanteaus of a character's name with the word "diabetes" in some way to refer to them being cute, such as "Twiabetes".[[/labelnote]] |
| 342 | * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UwmxUV7Nris Thrackerzod!]] [[labelnote:explanation]]A parody version of Sweetie Bell from the Mentally Advanced Series abridged videos as well as Rainbow Dash Presents (both made by the same creators). In said parodies, Sweetie Bell is re-imagined as an EldritchAbomination named [[WesternAnimation/TheTick "Thrackerzod"]] who tries to blend in with "normal" ponies.[[/labelnote]] |
| 343 | * Sweetie Belle and VideoGame/{{Minecraft}}/video games [[labelnote:explanation]]Creator/ClaireCorlett, Sweetie's voice actress, is an avid VideoGame/{{Minecraft}} player, even having posted videos of herself playing the game. This has translated to the concept that Sweetie Belle plays VideoGame/{{Minecraft}}, and used as a basis to pair her along with Button Mash (the colt with the beanie seen playing a video game in "Hearts and Hooves Day", and named such by Jan Animations).[[/labelnote]] |
| 344 | * Repeatie Belle. [[labelnote:explanation]]When she asks Rarity several times to be allowed to the School of Friendship Rarity called her that. It caught on soon.[[/labelnote]] |
| 345 | * Sweetie Belle can't cook. [[labelnote:explanation]] This takes Sweetie Belle's utter lack of cooking skills shown in "[[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS2E5SisterhoovesSocial Sisterhooves Social]]" in which she manages to ''liquefy toast'' to new extremes, not rarely threatening the very existence of the kitchen itself.[[/labelnote]] |

| 347 | |
| 348 | [[folder:The Princesses]] |
| 349 | [[AC:Celestia]] |
| 350 | |
| 351 | * Princess Trollestia [[labelnote:explanation]]Depicting Celestia [[TheGadfly as a prankster who annoys and messes with her subjects for the lulz]] is so common it got its own FanNickname.[[/labelnote]] |
| 352 | * TO THE MOON! [[labelnote:explanation]]A recurring joke whenever a Pony thinks they'll be punished by Celestia, or adding it on like it's a threat to a bird like Philomena, all due to the fact [[NeverLiveItDown she banished Luna to the moon]]. It's also considered her go-to solution when things don't work for her.[[/labelnote]] |
| 353 | ** Exaggerated in the fanimation ''WebAnimation/FriendshipIsMagicBitch'', which also spawned a few more memes: |
| 354 | *** "Do you like bananas? So, you're a bitch that likes bananas? Well, that's great. Cause you 'bout to GO bananas! On the MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONAAAAAAAA! [[ThisIsForEmphasisBitch BEE-YETCH!]]" [[labelnote:explanation]]in said fanimation, Princess Celestia asks the ponies who come to complain about her rule if they like bananas, [[DisproportionateRetribution then sends them all to the moon regardless of their answer.]] Including [[TheWoobie her sister.]] The line "do you like MMMMMMM bananas?" has since made it onto an official [[TheMerch shirt]], ''[[http://www.welovefine.com/2117-do-you-like-bananas.html Do You]] [[http://www.welovefine.com/2129-do-you-like-bananas.html Like Bananas?]]''[[/labelnote]] [[labelnote:extra note]]She also likes to get her bananas from Publix, a grocery store chain centered in Florida that had been featured in previous cartoons by the animator.[[/labelnote]] |
| 355 | *** There's also a variant which involves being "banished to season 2". |
| 356 | * Princess Molestia [[labelnote:explanation]]Slightly less common is [[MemeticMolester depicting Celestia as acting HIGHLY inappropriate]] with Twilight, Luna, and others.[[/labelnote]] |
| 357 | * Princess Momlestia [[labelnote:explanation]]Recent trend on derpibooru, depicting Celestia hugging other ponies and acting toward them like a mother, usually with Twilight. Other pictures also show just what happens when her subjects are threatened, especially Twilight. [[MamaBear The aftermath is]] ''[[MamaBear not]]'' [[MamaBear pretty]].[[/labelnote]] |
| 358 | ** And on a similar note, "Your Momjesty!" [[labelnote:explanation]]A number of more comedic fics have Twilight accidentally referring to Celestia in a manner implying she served as a surrogate mother to her.[[/labelnote]] |
| 359 | * "No one mare should have all that power!" [[labelnote:explanation]]Snowclone of "No one man should have all that power" (the refrain from Music/KanyeWest's also-memetic "Power"), related to expressing doubt in Celestia's rule. Likely introduced by [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Tjb14VoWjg this fan video's intro]] - there's also a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8luNcDxQ0Uc side-by-side comparison]] with the original video, for the curious.[[/labelnote]] |
| 360 | * Cakelestia [[labelnote:explanation]]"Ponyville Confidential" shows a picture of Celestia gorging herself on cake, and "[=MMMystery=] on the Friendship Express" shows her licking her lips while looking expectantly at a cake. After those two episode, it became common for fanart and fanfic to depict cake as Celestia's TrademarkFavoriteFood.[[/labelnote]] |
| 361 | * Pinklestia [[labelnote:explanation]]The infamous pink "Royal Castle Friends" Celestia talking toys. (Technically, in the show Princess Celestia is indeed pink rather than white, but it's so light pink that it's barely noticeable.)[[/labelnote]] |
| 362 | ** MY WINGS ARE SO PRETTY![[labelnote:explanation]]One of the lines said by the infamous talking Princess Celestia toy.[[/labelnote]] |
| 363 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K-x1LVYXrKE LET'S FLY TO THE CASTLE!]] |
| 364 | * okay so 18 pounds of cokane, 12 pounds of crake and 7 male stripers. but make sure none of them are white, i cant see the coke on them if they are [[labelnote:explanation]][[https://i.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/001/738/152/5f1.png A scene from a fancomic]] called ''Master chief and Luna hanging out'', whose full version is now lost, featuring Princess Celestia making the above request to her servant. This panel in particular has seen many redraws.[[/labelnote]] |
| 365 | [[AC:Luna]] |
| 366 | * "Haha! The fun has been ''doubled''!" [[labelnote:explanation]][[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lowij-5Q5Xg Luna's exclamation]] while playing games in ''Luna Eclipsed'' lead to snowclones almost immediately.[[/labelnote]] |
| 367 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=etaIaVgTmAg&feature=related Ha ha! The butt fun has been doubled!]] |
| 368 | * [[CargoShip Luna/Abacus]] {{OTP}} [[labelnote:explanation]]After the fanfiction ''FanFic/{{Progress}}'' depicted Luna as obsessed with an abacus for various reasons, it became common for other stories to mention Luna's extreme attachment to [[ICallItVera "Abby"]], even in stories that romantically pair her with someone else.[[/labelnote]] |
| 369 | * On September 29, 2011, a [[http://ponibooru.413chan.net/post/view/65311 leaked picture of an unfinished scene]] from the episode "[[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS2E4LunaEclipsed Luna Eclipsed]]", the one with the return of [[EnsembleDarkhorse Princess Luna]], showed Luna with a sinister grin on her face and a cloak. This single picture caused some ponies to claim that Luna had joined TheDarkSide[[note]]...[[Music/PinkFloyd of the Moon]][[/note]] and is now a [[Franchise/StarWars Sith Lord]]. |
| 370 | ** Along the same lines, the leaked episode synopsis rekindled interest in the [[WhatHappenedToTheMouse "Where My Woona!?"]] meme, seeing as she's finally making an appearance in the show proper since the whole Nightmare Moon incident. |
| 371 | * '''"[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r0WDNnxInFM THIS IS THE TRADITIONAL ROYAL CANTERLOT VOICE!!!]]"''' [[labelnote:explanation]]Luna's explanation in ''Luna Eclipsed'' for why she speaks in such a [[NoIndoorVoice loud booming voice]].[[/labelnote]] |
| 372 | ** Others use YeOldeButcheredeEnglishe for the Traditional Royal Canterlot Voice (or combine both aspects). |
| 373 | ** '''PRINCESS CAPSLOCK'''/CANTERLOCK [[labelnote:explanation]]The Royal Canterlot Voice has been described as her talking with capslock on, and various jokes about capslock were re-purposed (such as "The Royal Canterlot Voice is cruise control for cool").[[/labelnote]] |
| 374 | * Canon Luna is the best Luna. [[labelnote:explanation]]Said as a form of praise to Luna's first canonical appearance in "Luna Eclipsed", after all the fan work and speculation that had surrounded her canon personality for the whole year prior to that episode.[[/labelnote]] |
| 375 | ** Luna killed my fanfics! [[labelnote:explanation]]The direct opposite of the above.[[/labelnote]] |
| 376 | ** Redo the fanon! [[labelnote:explanation]]A call to all fans to redo their fanwork to match Canon Luna. Some, like the comic that started the "BLEEEEH ALFALFA MONSTER" meme, have already been redone in the [[http://egophiliac.deviantart.com/art/we-are-not-amused-264700507 Traditional Royal Canterlot Voice]]. The Luna tumblr accounts also immediately adapted it.[[/labelnote]] |
| 377 | ** [[http://ponibooru.413chan.net/post/view/74687 Trollestia did it!]] [[labelnote:explanation]]Fans who really did not expect Luna's behavior in said episode already found a target to jokingly blame it on.[[/labelnote]] |
| 378 | * [[http://ponibooru.413chan.net/post/list/luna_ducreux/1 Luna Ducreux]] [[labelnote:explanation]]Spawned from the Joseph Ducreux meme where famous catch phrases and memes are translated into Old English. This variation replaces Ducreux with Luna herself. Phrases used are often brony memes such as phrases from the show or other brony memes.[[/labelnote]] |
| 379 | * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6bW-xCFqxLQ&feature=related Luna]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EvqmNNeGTVU&feature=related Dance]] [[labelnote:explanation]]A gif of happy young Luna dancing to moon-related music on the moon, spawned by an attempt to explain what she did for 1000 years.[[/labelnote]] |
| 380 | * Luna is friggen' useless. [[labelnote:explanation]]Luna was conspicuously absent during the battle sequence from [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS2E26ACanterlotWeddingPart2 A Canterlot Wedding]], despite even Celestia engaging in combat. Many a fan took note, and wondered just what she was [[http://derpibooru.org/17063 doing at the time]].[[/labelnote]] |
| 381 | ** Counterpoint: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VrpXtoPauXY Luna]] [[http://ponibooru.413chan.net/post/list/luna_punch/1 PUNCH!]] [[labelnote:explanation]]A few frames of Luna rearing back threateningly got edited into her decking Chrysalis as an alternate ending to A Canterlot Wedding. This being the Internet, she soon moved on to punching various other characters from different shows.[[/labelnote]] |
| 382 | * Gamer Luna. [[labelnote:explanation]]Depicting Luna as an avid video game player.[[/labelnote]] |
| 383 | ** [[http://askgamerluna.tumblr.com/ It even has a Tumblr!]] |
| 384 | * From the season 2 finale, "Hello everypony. Did I miss anything?" |
| 385 | ** The above is typically used whenever someone knowingly joins a conversation after some semi-interesting event has happened, considering what she missed in those two episodes. |
| 386 | -->'''User A:''' Man, I'm glad we finally got rid of that troll. |
| 387 | -->'''User B:''' Hello everypony. Did I miss anything? |
| 388 | -->'''User A:''' Did you miss anything!? You missed a troll raid! |
| 389 | --> And so on. |
| 390 | * "You're my favorite princess!" [[labelnote:explanation]]Pipsqueak says this to Luna during the episode ''Luna Eclipsed''. The sentence has gained popularity. Though typically used to refer to Luna, "X is my favorite princess" is occasionally used to describe Celestia, Cadance or even other characters that are sometimes not princesses at all (just like "X is best pony" is occasionally used for non-ponies).[[/labelnote]] |
| 391 | * "LUNA IS BEST [[Franchise/ANightmareOnElmStreet FREDDY KRUEGER!]]"[[labelnote:explanation:]]After "Sleepless in Ponyville" established that part of Luna's repertoire included visiting people in their dreams, comments were made comparing Luna to a benevolent version of Freddy (in that she's protecting people in their dreams instead of killing them)[[/labelnote]] |
| 392 | * [[CatapultNightmare Catapult Luna]][[labelnote:explanation]]At the beginning of "Do Princesses Dream of Magic Sheep?", Luna wakes up in a panic. Fans have used this image and placed various strange "dreams" just before it, implying that they were nightmarish.[[/labelnote]] |
| 393 | |
| 394 | [[AC:Cadence/[[InconsistentSpelling Cadance]]]] |
| 395 | * [[http://ponibooru.413chan.net/post/list/cadence%20guessing_game/1 Princess Cadence is X]] [[labelnote:explanation]]Based on the season 2 finale's second synopsis ''[[http://www.equestriadaily.com/2012/03/episode-synopsis-announcement-canterlot.html "Twilight discovers a dark secret about Cadence right before the wedding"]]''. It's an exploitable meme which contains a picture of Princess Cadence to the left, an equal sign in the middle, and a random picture to the right, implying that the other picture is somehow related to Cadence and/or has something to do with her dark secret.[[/labelnote]] |
| 396 | * Just roll with it. [[labelnote:explanation]]After a massive buildup over months and months of wondering how the show would introduce a new winged unicorn to the show's pantheon, it wasn't that big a deal during and after the show aired.[[/labelnote]] |
| 397 | * Throwing Cadance/Epic wife tossing/Tactical wife launcher.[[labelnote:explanation]]During the climax of the Season 3 premiere, Shining Armor "helps" Cadance take off to fly and retrieve the Crystal Heart [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WsmJ81SXE4M by throwing her at it.]] [[https://i.chzbgr.com/completestore/12/11/16/5hEJ4OdCs0iodu1wlOJMZA2.gif Fans had a field day with it.]][[/labelnote]] |
| 398 | * [[https://derpibooru.org/411842 Cadance's Bedtime Stories]].[[labelnote:explanation]]A piece of fanart showing Cadance reading a bedtime story to Twilight quickly became an exploitable. Link points to original art because the link to the tag breaks the formatting.[[/labelnote]] |
| 399 | * [[https://derpibooru.org/tags/cadance+laughs+at+your+misery Cadance laughs at your misery]] [[labelnote:explanation]]A panel of IDW showing Cadance laughing was taken out of context.[[/labelnote]] |
| 400 | * MY DRESS IS SO PRETTY![[labelnote:explanation]]Similar to the "MY WINGS ARE SO PRETTY!" meme but on the Princess Cadence toy.[[/labelnote]] |
| 401 | * The bride and the ugly ass groom [[labelnote:explanation]][[https://twitter.com/vokuroooo/status/1764360031456174344 A tweet]] depicting the talking Princess Cadence toy in a custom-made wedding dress towering over a Shining Armor toy with rather sparse and frayed hair. The image is used as inspiration for people to redraw in their own art style.[[/labelnote]] |
| 402 | |
| 403 | [[AC:Flurry Heart]] |
| 404 | * [[https://derpibooru.org/tags/mcflurry McFlurry]].[[labelnote:explanation]]Comparisons to a product from a [[UsefulNotes/McDonalds certain fast food chain]] have occurred almost immediately after her reveal.[[/labelnote]] |
| 405 | * Her giant wings [[labelnote:explanation]]When fans were presented with the preview showing her first appearance, the clip drew detail to her having wings. The size of them when they were expanded, as well as there being a long time before fans got an official explanation as to why her having wings was so shocking to the ponies (she was born an alicorn when all others were ''made''), led them to believe that her wings are unnaturally large and that, as she'll get older, her wings will be bigger than her own body. [[/labelnote]] |
| 406 | * Flurry Heart - [[RonTheDeathEater Season Six's villain]]! [[labelnote:explanation]]There is always a villain that shows up in the Season Premiere in some form. Seeing as the main threat in "The Crystalling" seems to be the baby's PowerIncontinence, many are saying that she is the villain for the season.[[/labelnote]] |
| 407 | * DJ Flurry [[labelnote:explanation]]From a [[FunnyBackgroundEvent minor dream]] (screenshotted [[https://derpibooru.org/images/1459072?q=dj+flurry+heart here]]) in the season 7 episode ''[[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS7E10ARoyalProblem "A Royal Problem"]][[/labelnote]] |

| 416 | * Swiss Cheese Legs [[labelnote:explanation]]The holes in the legs of Queen Chrysalis and the other changelings look like... [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin yeah.]][[/labelnote]] |
| 417 | ** Queen Swissalis [[labelnote:explanation]]Ditto.[[/labelnote]] |
| 418 | * "X is a Changeling!" [[labelnote:explanation]]A RunningGag among the fandom for when more than one of the same background pony appeared at the same time.[[/labelnote]] |
| 419 | * An image of a pig wearing Diamond Tiara's tiara after the latter falls into a mud pit in "One Bad Apple" has led to representation of DT by a pig wearing a tiara. |

| 422 | * Trixie wears her heart on her cloak. [[labelnote:explanation]]Almost every shipping fic with Trixie has one of the Mane Cast salvage and repair her hat and cloak as a romantic gesture. The hat and cloak themselves are usually described as either an inheritance from an adored family member, or things Trixie made herself with her magic when she first started her show, and almost always have some sentimental value for Trixie, regardless if the fic is shipping or not.[[/labelnote]] |
| 423 | ** Rarity is a [[TheFashionista fashionista]] cupid. [[labelnote:explanation]]Tied in with the meme directly above, if the character Trixie is being shipped with isn't Rarity, the one she is being shipped with will have talked Rarity into fixing the hat and cloak for them to give to Trixie.[[/labelnote]] |
| 424 | * Trixie's favorite food is pinecones. [[labelnote:explanation]]A brony by the name of Bronymike spent quite a lot of time requesting art of Trixie eating pinecones. [[http://ponibooru.413chan.net/post/view/37651 He]] [[http://ponibooru.413chan.net/post/view/38577 got]] [[http://ponibooru.413chan.net/post/view/37988 it.]][[/labelnote]] |

| 426 | * [[http://youtu.be/fXazWMZBRB0 TrixieYes.mp4]] [[labelnote:explanation]][[http://fav.me/d4fw3x1 A looping animation]] of Trixie dancing to the song "[[http://youtu.be/I25YWZWLLEU Fancy Footwork]]" with the words "WHAT NOW?" on top. It's based on a Webcomic/{{Homestuck}} meme known as "[[https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=wh4t+now&aq=f WH4T NOW?]]".[[/labelnote]] |
| 427 | * Trixie doesn't trust wheels. [[labelnote:explanation]]In "Magic Duel", Trixie makes Snips and Snails pull her personal chariot; when they ask why the chariot lacks wheels, she (likely due WithGreatPowerComesGreatInsanity induced by the Alicorn Amulet, or because she was DrunkOnTheDarkSide and lying to make their lives harder for spite) answers "The Great and Powerful Trixie doesn't trust wheels. Now pull faster!" This led quite a few bronies to create art of Trixie demonstrating her distrust, or of whatever incident from Trixie's past that caused her to distrust wheels.[[/labelnote]] |
| 428 | * Trixie loves teacups. [[labelnote:explanation]]"All Bottled Up" begins with Trixie practicing her magic by trying to turn a salt shaker into a teacup. When she succeeds, she gets excited and starts turning other things into teacups. Bronies ran with it for fan art and turned it into Trixie having an infatuation with teacups.[[/labelnote]] |
| 429 | * Trixie's rocket. [[labelnote:explanation]]A toy in the "Guardians of Harmony" product line depicts Trixie about to blast off on a rocket, with Starlight riding behind her and wearing her hat. It immediately caught on and became a popular image.[[/labelnote]] |
| 430 | * Trixie will [[WesternAnimation/{{Mulan}} hit you so hard, it'll make your ancestors dizzy]]![[labelnote:explanation]] There is [[https://www.deviantart.com/mega-poneo/art/Trixie-punches-out-who-826299017 a Trixie variant]] of [[https://www.deviantart.com/topcatmeeces97/art/Yao-threatens-to-punch-who-795718362 this exploitable meme]] of Yao threatening to punch characters.[[/labelnote]] |
| 431 | * Trixie is VideoGame/MegaManX. [[labelnote:explanation]] She's blue, great, and powerful, was originally meant to be male, and her name has the letter "X". In canon, she's very willing to learn new abilities. In a lot of fan art such as [[https://www.deviantart.com/template93/art/Trixie-Magic-blast-296259439 this]], she prefers to use an ArmCannon over her horn, and [[https://www.deviantart.com/spyro0w0/art/The-Great-Trixie-s-Magic-of-Flight-291243288 she's also used X's dash]]. She's even worn [[https://www.deviantart.com/4-chap/art/Trixie-Complete-X-798746098 X's first complete armor]]. And to top it all off, she's best friends with a former apocalyptic villain (are we talking about Zero or Starlight?)[[/labelnote]] |
| 432 | * "Trixie is Trans" [[labelnote:explanation]]A reoccurring, if not [[BrokenBase polarizing]] meme/headcanon (started off by brony trans musician Vylet Pony) that argues that Trixie is actually a trans female due to some factors (the most known "fact" being the original WhatCouldHaveBeen of Trixie being put as a male character before) despite never being confirmed by anybody in the show's staff or Hasbro itself. As stated, the meme became polarizing due to some bronies (especially Vylet Pony herself) enforcing that the theory ''is'' "canon" despite no actual proof of it, leading to some drama regarding it as a result. The phrase seems to have become more of a meme at this point simply because of how much discourse it causes, with some who even don't believe in it just throwing it out there to upset people.[[/labelnote]] |
| 433 | * Miss Steal-Yo-Girl [[labelnote:explanation]]After Trixie shared significant screentime and character development with Sunset in ''Forgotten Friendship'', jokes abound about how Trixie was getting [[ShipTease friendly]] with two of the fandom's favorite waifus, Sunset and Starlight[[/labelnote]] |
| 434 | * Inconvenient Trixie [[labelnote:explanation]]This started as [[https://inconvenienttrixie.tumblr.com/ a Tumblr blog created by Egophiliac]] and quickly gained a life of its own. Many other artists showed Trixie being annoying or just getting into usually, but not exclusively Twilight Sparkle's way.]][[/labelnote]] |
| 435 | |
| 436 | [[AC:Discord]] |
| 437 | * Discord dancing on Twilight's head seems to have [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dG35VKg62GA swiftly]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8_yDBWBTAHw become]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R2dtJkX9wNM one]]. It didn't take long for a piece of fananimation showing the real Discord doing that dance, either. Then there's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zrUxaSaJFXc this.]] |
| 438 | * [=DisQord=]. [[labelnote:explanation]]Discord was voiced by John de Lancie, who also voiced Q in various ''Franchise/StarTrek'' series, and the character was heavily inspired by Q as well, resulting in this FanNickname. ''Star Trek''/''MLP'' mashups were also inevitable following the first episode.[[/labelnote]] |
| 439 | * [[http://youtu.be/45vW4-B-yRY Chocolate milk of glass]] [[labelnote:explanation]]Discord filling a glass with chocolate milk, and then drinking the glass.[[/labelnote]] |
| 440 | ** Exploding chocolate milk of glass / [[VideoGame/{{Portal2}} Combustible Chocolate Milk]] [[labelnote:explanation]]From the same scene, after Discord drinks the glass, he throws away the cylinder of chocolate milk, which [[MadeOfExplodium explodes offscreen]].[[/labelnote]] |
| 441 | * Discord's Dimension of [[DoomyDoomsOfDoom Doom!]][[labelnote:Explanation]]In Make New Friends But Keep Discord, there is a scene where Discord opens a portal into another dimension [[MediumBlending inhabited by sock puppets]]. Fans have edited stills of the portal so that it leads to various other locations of dubious quality.[[/labelnote]] |
| 442 | |
| 443 | [[AC:King Sombra]] |
| 444 | * Lord Donut Steel[[labelnote:Explanation]]Sombra's fan-given nickname before his official name was revealed. A play on "Do not steal", a phrase often mockingly used in relation to Original Characters (since many fans have complained King Sombra looks like a bad fanmade character).[[/labelnote]] |
| 445 | ** Has also been extended into Lord Donut Steel Of The Sombrero Republic. |
| 446 | * King Sombrero[[labelnote:Explanation]]A play on his name, "Sombra".[[/labelnote]] |
| 447 | * Sombra X stairs = OTP[[labelnote:Explanation]]King Sombra had levels upon levels of stairs in his castle, leading some to wonder whether he had a peculiar love for stairs in general.[[/labelnote]] |
| 448 | ** Alternately, King Sombra ''loves'' [[http://cheezburger.com/6762610688 Slinkies.]] |
| 449 | * King Sombra can't speak properly.[[labelnote:Explanation]]King Sombra had very few speaking lines in the episode, and his peculiar voice makes them difficult to decipher. This was sometimes combined with King Sombrero and explained by Sombra being a native Spanish speaker and only knowing little English.[[/labelnote]] |
| 450 | * GAK[[labelnote:Explanation]]Recurring commercials for a toy named Gak during the Season 3 premiere (and by "recurring", we mean "at one point airing four times in a row") led to King Sombra being memetically associated with this toy and the word GAK in general.[[/labelnote]] |
| 451 | ** GAK got more screentime than King Sombra[[labelnote:Explanation]]A joke contrasting the prevalence of the commercial with to the meager screentime the villain received.[[/labelnote]] |
| 452 | * "Still a better villain than Sombra."[[labelnote:Explanation]]King Sombra is commonly accused of being a GenericDoomsdayVillain with no real character to speak of. Taken to extremes when minor antagonists who aren't actually villainous are said to be better villains than Sombra.[[/labelnote]] |
| 453 | ** Combining two above memes, we get "Still more screentime than Sombra." |
| 454 | * King Sombra: [[spoiler: BUCKING DEAD!]] [[labelnote:explanation]]After five seasons and three movies, King Sombra is ''still'' the only main antagonist to be KilledOffForReal, while everyone else has been sealed someplace or reformed.[[/labelnote]] |
| 455 | * Stupid sexy Sombra! [[labelnote:explanation]]Fanart of Sombra in a more natural pony form after "The Crystal Empire" tend to draw him on the TallDarkAndHandsome side. Not helped when one IDW comic arc feature a mirror world Sombra who is not power hungry, completely gentlemanly, and actually is TallDarkAndHandsome, having both Rarity and Fluttershy falter on sight of him.[[/labelnote]] |
| 456 | * Five Minutes... [[labelnote:explanation]]While his initial appearance made him out to be very underwhelming, the season five finale showed an alternate timeline where all of Equestria was at war with him and he seemed to be winning. This is commonly called "The five minutes where Sombra was best villain."[[/labelnote]] |
| 457 | |

The original "carving" was excised and the blank space turned into an exploitable.[[/labelnote]] |
| 464 | * [[Webcomic/{{Homestuck}} Yeah!!!!!!!!]] [[labelnote: Explanation]] Sunset has also been frequently compared to [[http://derpibooru.org/344595 Vriska Serket]], for the same reasons (and appearance, as well).[[/labelnote]] |

| 539 | ** (S)He is the one called [[Franchise/SailorMoon Sailor Mac!]] [[labelnote:explanation]]During a shared dream sequence in "Do Princesses Dream Of Magic Sheep," Big Mac transformed into an alicorn, complete with a sailor moon-esque transformation sequence.[[/labelnote]] |
| 540 | |
| 541 | [[AC:Thorax]] |
| 542 | * Thorax is best Princess.[[labelnote:explanation]]Pointing out that Thorax Character Arc rather mirrors Twilight's, what with him learning about Friendship, transforming into a new form and leadership position. Also a not-so-subtle dig at his rather timid personality - calling him King would be way to manly for him.[[/labelnote]] |
| 543 | |
| 544 | [[AC:Luster Dawn]] |
| 545 | * Millennial Luster Dawn.[[labelnote:explanation]]Portaying Luster Dawn as a stereotypical Millennial into technology, social media, and so forth. Tends to come with the older Twilight being depicted as an aging Boomer and the two have trouble understanding each other.[[/labelnote]] |
| 546 | [[/folder]] |
| 547 | |
| 548 | [[folder:Background Ponies]] |
| 549 | [[AC:General]] |
| 550 | * "Brushie brushie brushie" [[labelnote:explanation]]A Photoshopped pic of background pony [[AllThereInTheScript Minuette]] ({{Fan Nickname}}d "Colgate" since her blue and white mane resembles toothpaste) getting her head brushed with a toothbrush inspired a string of similar pictures with other ponies, frequently getting brushed in certain other parts of the anatomy.[[/labelnote]] |
| 551 | * In Pinchy We Trust. [[FlatWhat One Wat]] [[labelnote:explanation]]The catchphrase of the [[http://askrubypinch.tumblr.com/ Ask Ruby Pinch]] tumblr and a response to anything that warrants a FlatWhat. Sometimes comes with [[http://askrubypinch.tumblr.com/post/9508858827 this stamp]].[[/labelnote]] |
| 552 | * There's a popular trend on Website/YouTube where DJ-[=Pon3=]'s bobbing head animation is synchronized with some ElectronicMusic, making it look as if she's banging her head to the beat of the music. |
| 553 | ** Octavia adds her own spin to the trend by having her playing animation synchronized with a piece of ClassicalMusic, making it look like she's playing the piece herself. |
| 554 | * Bon Bon: Equestria's top voice actress. [[labelnote:explanation]]Background pony Bon Bon has had speaking parts in five different episodes ("Call of the Cutie", "Green Isn't Your Color", "Lesson Zero", "The Super Speedy Cider Squeezy 6000", and "Putting Your Hoof Down"), each time with a different voice. This has led to some fans joking Bon Bon is either a talented voice actress who keeps changing the way she sounds in order to keep her skills sharp, or (since the S2 finale) a closeted changeling. Became an AscendedMeme as of "Slice of Life", which revealed that [[spoiler:she's actually a former secret agent hiding out in Ponyville]].[[/labelnote]] |
| 555 | * "[[[FanNickname PONY]]] [TOY NAME]" / "[TOY NAME] [[[FanNickname PONY]]]" [[labelnote:explanation]]Since the release of the blind bag toys that resemble the background ponies, some fans have adopted the toy names as their second names. Be it their surname, first name, or even their secret real name in [[http://tinyurl.com/7sbsrtu Carrot Top's case]].[[/labelnote]] |
| 556 | ** Examples of name combinations are Lyra Heartstrings (which has since become AscendedFanon), Blues Noteworthy or Noteworthy Blues, Rose's full name being Roseluck and Berryshine "Berry" Punch. |
| 557 | ** One that happened afterwards is Trixie--who is named in the show--being officially given the surname Lulamoon in the fifth wave after the fourth wave infamously called her just Lulamoon. |
| 558 | * "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sob1t-iUCmE Epic Wub Time]]", an original video where Octavia and [=DJ P0N-3=]/Vinyl Scratch are depicted as OddCouple roommates. Features music by various {{dubstep}} artists connected to the MLP fandom, including The Living Tombstone's "Dubstep Dishwasher". A FountainOfMemes, most notably '''''MAH BASS CANNON!''''' |
| 559 | -->'''Octavia:''' I was going to be first-chair cellist for the Royal Canterlot Symphony. ''How is this my life?!'' |
| 560 | * Octo Octavia/Octotavia [[labelnote:explanation]]In a similar vein to sea pony Lyra, an art trend where Octavia is depicted as an "[[MixAndMatchCritters octopus pony]]". It started out as a simple pun to Octavia's name and its comparison to the word "octopus" and one of the nicknames that is often used by fans: "Octi/Octie/Octy" which is similar in name to [[WesternAnimation/ThePowerpuffGirls Bubbles']] stuffed octopus. Its inspiration came from a Music/{{Vocaloid}} meme where one of the [=Vocaloid=] characters (Luka Megurine) is depicted as an octopus head known as "[[http://vocaloid.wikia.com/wiki/Tako_Luka Tako Luka]]". The art trend was started by John Joseco[[http://lovetomorrowlove.tumblr.com/post/13645767129]][[http://fav.me/d4hzpxl]]. Other artists soon followed.[[http://datcatwhatdances.tumblr.com/post/13657386652]][[http://askmlcblobs.tumblr.com/post/13665195438]][[http://slugboxponies.tumblr.com/post/13654949396]][[http://allthecrookedtrees.tumblr.com/post/13703553871]][[http://fav.me/d4hvs6g]][[/labelnote]] |
| 561 | * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t3X_pFcBwtE Crackle]] is best dragon! [[labelnote:explanation]]Crackle, a one-shot gag character that looks a ''lot'' like Rarity's PaperThinDisguise dragon costume, has since become something of a memetic character due to its bizarre appearance.[[/labelnote]] |
| 562 | * Background pony copies are actually changelings! [[labelnote:explanation]]Now that "A Canterlot Wedding" is out, people have designed this as an explanation for "clones" of background characters.[[/labelnote]] |
| 563 | * Button's video game reaction[[labelnote:explanation]]Similar to the television meme for nearly all the other ponies, an exploitable 3-panel pulled from the fan animation [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S2VhC1QF7ww Button's Adventures]] featuring "Button Mash", the colt playing the video game in the Hearts & Hooves Day song. Button is seen staring at an old Pong-like video game console, and then replying "I don't get it" at the game's mechanics. Others have inserted any weird and strange game as the exploitable for the second panel.[[/labelnote]] |
| 564 | * [[http://derpibooru.org/tags/ms-dot-+harshwhinny%27s+professional+chalkboard Ms. Harshwhinny's Professional Chalkboard]][[labelnote:Explanation]]Ms. Harshwhinny making a very unique expression in front of a chalkboard that can have one of many images[[/labelnote]] |
| 565 | * Secret Agent Sweetie Drops[[labelnote:Explanation]]After "Slice of Life" depicted her as a former secret agent, the fandom happily latched onto Sweetie Drops/Bon Bon as the James Bond/Jason Bourne of Equestria.[[/labelnote]] |
| 566 | * Amethyst Star is the reason the Winter Wrap-Up was always late.[[labelnote:Explanation]]In "Slice of Life" she claimed she used to be the best organizer in Ponyville before Twilight moved to town. Season 1's "Winter Wrap-Up" has the Mayor tell Twilight the event has a history of never finishing on time. The fans put two and two together.[[/labelnote]] |
| 567 | * [[HideYourGays Best Friends!]] [[labelnote:Explanation]]The hundredth episode had fan favorites Lyra and Bonbon--who are often considered the OTP of the fandom--in a scene where they acted very much like lovers, to the point where replacing every instance of "Best Friend" with "Special Somepony" would have made far more sense. Fans have noticed and turned it into a code phrase for romantic partners.[[/labelnote]] |
| 568 | * [[https://derpibooru.org/tags/flaskhead+hearts?scope=scpec3ede649594055611928991f19e2afbc93961948 Flaskhead Hearts]] [[labelnote:Explanation]]A scene from "Amending Fences" featured a brief flashback where Lemon Hearts somehow managed to get her head stuck inside a flask during biology class. The fandom took the image and rolled with it.[[/labelnote]] |
| 569 | * Vinyl the Vampire |
| 570 | * Wolftavia |
| 571 | |
| 572 | [[AC:Derpy Hooves]] |
| 573 | * [[MemeticBystander Derpy Hooves]]. [[labelnote:explanation]]One pegasus in the background in episode 1 appeared cockeyed. In short order she was given a FanNickname and associated with mail and the postal service. She's also been given an obsession with muffins (based on a dreamy exclamation of "muffin" in "Applebuck Season" which [[BeamMeUpScotty may or may not have been said by her]]), a unicorn daughter named Dinky, the ability to do anything [[AchievementsInIgnorance provided she forgets that it should be impossible]], a friendship with another background pony known as "Carrot Top", and a bad habit of raiding Carrot Top's refrigerator ("[[Webcomic/CarrotCakeStorybook I emptied your fridge]]" has become a meme in itself).[[/labelnote]] |
| 574 | ** Creator/LaurenFaust [[AscendedMeme said in response]] "she can be Derpy if everyone likes", and she showed up as a delivery pony in "Feeling Pinkie Keen". |
| 575 | ** Derpy Hooves became [[AscendedMeme canon]] in The Last Roundup, having a speaking role with and being called "Derpy" by Rainbow Dash. To say the fans were pleased would be quite the understatement. |
| 576 | * Derpy got corrective eye surgery! [[labelnote:explanation]]At the ceremony honouring Twilight and her friends in part 2 of the Season 2 premiere, Derpy/Ditzy is seen in the background without her traditional cockeyed appearance.[[/labelnote]] |
| 577 | ** But apparently it didn't take. [[labelnote:explanation]]She can be seen in ''Lesson Zero'' being attracted to the enchanted Miss Smartypants. When the spell is broken, she was fighting the Mayor hoof to hoof, derpy eyes and all.[[/labelnote]] |
| 578 | * [[http://ponibooru.413chan.net/post/list/i_emptied_your_fridge/1 "I emptied your fridge."]] [[labelnote:Explanation]]A CatchPhrase and RunningGag where Derpy empties the entire contents of somepony else's fridge for varying reasons or even no given reason at all. May or may not be through the consumption of the food inside. Usually Carrot Top's fridge to her annoyance due to the meme's [[Webcomic/CarrotCakeStorybook origin]].[[/labelnote]] |
| 579 | ** The animators did a FandomNod about this in the episode "Luna Eclipsed", this time [[http://youtu.be/FbWbBrm8Nwg involving an apple bobbing tub and a drain]]. [[http://ponibooru.413chan.net/post/view/75156 Carrot Top is not amused as usual.]] |
| 580 | * Ancient Muffins [[labelnote:explanation]]A variation of the Ancient Aliens image macro meme where muffins are the answer to every weird or odd occurrences in the show such as animation errors or {{plot hole}}s as explained by Derpy Hooves. The image used in the macro originated from a deviantART submission by Equestria-Prevails called "[[http://fav.me/d4h7rms Ancient Humans]]". Prior to the artwork, a photoshopped version of the Ancient Aliens guy with Derpy's head pasted over his was used.[[/labelnote]] |
| 581 | * Where's Derpy? [[labelnote:explanation]]Derpy has appeared in every episode since "The Best Night Ever", and fans have made a habit of pointing her out in the same vein as Literature/WheresWaldo. Starting with "Lesson Zero", Derpy's appearances have become a OncePerEpisode RunningGag, to the point that Creator/TheHub themselves [[http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=275448695837553 posted]] [[http://twitter.com/#!/HubTVNetwork/status/148052378967478272 on]] their Website/{{Facebook}} and Website/{{Twitter}} pages about keeping an eye out for Derpy in "[[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS2E13HearthsWarmingEve Hearth's Warming Eve]]" (incidentally making her name even more official than it already was).[[/labelnote]] |
| 582 | * Derpy's plot is iron! [[labelnote:explanation]]Derpy's appearance in [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS2E14TheLastRoundup The Last Roundup]]. She had her own scene, and in it she plops down onto a floor...and breaks through. Taking Rainbow Dash with her.[[/labelnote]] |
| 583 | * Derpy Drama/Derpygate. [[labelnote:explanation]]A name for all aforementioned memes concerning Derpy's recent controversy. The other name is obviously referencing the infamous Watergate scandal.[[/labelnote]] |
| 584 | ** Derpy Shot First [[labelnote:explanation]]After being removed from iTunes and skipped in Creator/TheHub's reruns, 'The Last Roundup' was re-released with Derpy's name not mentioned, her scenes revoiced, and her wall-eyed expression lessened. Reaction was... mixed. this is itself in reference to Franchise/StarWars' "Han Solo shot first" meme.[[/labelnote]] |
| 585 | ** "I just don't know what went wrong." [[labelnote:explanation]]Derpy's first spoken line in [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS2E14TheLastRoundup The Last Roundup]] is often quoted whenever somepony makes a mistake. Also often used in a [[TearJerker sad context]] concerning the edit. Sometimes accompanied by the emoticon 9_6[[/labelnote]] |
| 586 | ** They changed her voice/eyes, now we shall rage. [[labelnote:explanation]]In response to the edit, dozens of reaction videos had soon followed depicting frustrated, irritated, and enraged feelings from the fans.[[/labelnote]] |
| 587 | ** This character might be considered offensive; expect censorship. [[labelnote:explanation]]The brief Derpy scare brought on a joke where similar characters will be censored. Including the mental patient barking Pony in "Read It and Weep" and Crackle in "Dragon Quest"[[/labelnote]] |
| 588 | ** Derpy's BackForTheFinale! [[labelnote:explanation]]After being completely absent for 12 straight episodes, Derpy had no fewer than ''five'' appearances in the season three finale![[/labelnote]] |
| 589 | *** Take ''that'', Elena Barabrich![[labelnote:explanation]]Webcomic artist Elena "Yamino" Barabrich is a common scapegoat for "Derpygate", as she expressed personal distaste at the episode in question a few short days before the censorship occurred. The show staff have actually tried to absolve her of all blame, with varying success. Perhaps not helped by her [[http://fav.me/d5v5dnv digging herself deeper]].[[/labelnote]] |
| 590 | * Derpy is mad at Diamond Tiara.[[labelnote:explanation]]In ''Ponyville Confidential'', there is a scene where Diamond Tiara shoves Derpy's fanon daughter Dinky aside. There is fanart of Derpy turning up, [[MamaBear pissed off]].[[/labelnote]] |
| 591 | * That Pony/Mare!![[labelnote:explanation]]In issue #1, of the IDW comic, Derpy is shown in the process of being imprisoned and impersonated by changelings. The dialog from Twilight reads "GASP! They've captured that pony in a chrysalis and taken her place!"[[/labelnote]] |
| 592 | * Derpy in a Box [[labelnote:explanation]]In the Gameloft iOS app, Derpy appears as a randomly-appearing character who hides in a cardboard box (a la [[VideoGame/MetalGear Solid Snake]]) and wanders around the screen. If you tap on her box, she comes out of the box, dropping coins and sometimes gems for you to pick up. This overlaps the above, as they only refer to her as "That pony."[[/labelnote]] |
| 593 | * Equestria's Best Mother [[labelnote:explanation]]Any picture depicing Derpy and Dinky together, as a happy mother and daughter.[[/labelnote]] |
| 594 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OZQ4DLF-OIY This resulted in a parody song being written.]] |
| 595 | * Derpy Hooves holding the ponyville flag. [[labelnote:explanation]] The scene that marked her triumphant return in ''Rainbow Falls.''[[/labelnote]] |
| 596 | * And Derpy on the musical saw. [[labelnote:explanation]]One of the bands in ''Equestria Girls: Rainbow Rocks'' has two background humans on cowbell and triangle... and Derpy sitting center-stage, playing a musical saw.[[/labelnote]] |
| 597 | * Derpy shuts the door. [[labelnote:explanation]]An exploitable based on the scene where Derpy shuts the door on the Mane 6 and locks it.[[/labelnote]] |
| 598 | * Muffin 1 [[labelnote:explanation]]The image of Derpy faux-flying a plane with a grin is popular, and the plane itself has been dubbed "Muffin 1". [[/labelnote]] |
| 599 | * She's a big kitty, really. [[labelnote:explanation]]During a shared dream in "Do Princesses Dream of Magic Sheep?", Derpy Hooves was a giant who only meowed. For some reason.[[/labelnote]] |
| 600 | * Derpy's Sacrifice. [[labelnote:explanation]]When Tempest Shadow [[spoiler:aims her petrification orb at Twilight, Derpy Hooves and Rainbow Dash have the same idea: Save the Princess. Derpy ends up TakingTheBullet]].[[/labelnote]] |
| 601 | |
| 602 | [[AC:Lyra Heartstrings]] |
| 603 | * Sitting Lyra. [[labelnote:explanation]]One of the background ponies, a mint green unicorn with a lyre cutie mark often engaged in some sort of FunnyBackgroundEvent, was seen in "Dragonshy" sitting like a human being on a bench, leading to many fanworks and jokes about her wanting to be human, mostly centered around her odd sitting patterns but recently branching into wanting human hands as well. Some [[TheMerch officially licensed merchandise]] has since shown her sitting in the same manner--namely, the ''[[http://www.welovefine.com/product.php?id_product=966 Lyra On]] [[http://www.welovefine.com/product.php?id_product=967 My Pocket]]'' and ''[[http://www.welovefine.com/product.php?id_product=1953 Friendship]] [[http://www.welovefine.com/product.php?id_product=1974 Is Coming]]'' shirts and the [[http://www.welovefine.com/product.php?id_product=1330 papercraft]] [[http://www.welovefine.com/product.php?id_product=1331 diorama]].[[/labelnote]] |
| 604 | * Lyra wants hands. [[labelnote:explanation]]Ever since the sitting Lyra, fans have speculated that she might in fact have an obsession with humans (even though there are no humans in Equestria). This ranges from [[http://ponibooru.413chan.net/post/view/58735 her]] [[http://ponibooru.413chan.net/post/view/38193 creepy]] [[http://www.furaffinity.net/full/6579087/ obsession]] [[http://csimadmax.deviantart.com/art/first-wish-253932825 with]] [[http://thelivingmachine02.deviantart.com/art/OH-GOD-POISON-JOKE-257494010 hands]] to [[http://thelivingmachine02.deviantart.com/art/Running-of-the-Leaves-216041437 mimicking human behavior]] and ultimately to becoming a human herself. [[http://i.imgur.com/VNO0x.jpg questionable content]] [[http://img692.imageshack.us/img692/2963/158764applejackartistti.png or if you want the full pic, also this one is PNG]][[/labelnote]] |
| 605 | * Seapony Lyra. [[labelnote:explanation]]One fanartist has started popularizing a seapony version of Lyra [[http://johnjoseco.deviantart.com/art/Go-Away-Sea-Pony-Lyra-258177483 like this one]]. She's watching you clop clop clop![[/labelnote]] |
| 606 | * "Ew gay!" [[labelnote:explanation]]A pic of Lyra saying this was created as a half-joking response to the overabundance of LesYay and femslash shipping in the fandom. [[{{Irony}} Ironically, Lyra]] ''[[{{Irony}} is]]'' [[{{Irony}} gay.]][[/labelnote]] |
| 607 | ** More recently, [[HetIsEw "Ew, straight!"]] |
| 608 | * Lyra teaches about humans [[note]]A new series of pictures featuring Lyra in a classroom giving wildly inaccurate speeches about humanity.[[/note]] |
| 609 | * Multi-purpose, [[BlatantLies completely non-sexual]] Lyra plushie [[labelnote:explanation]]Some time ago, a fan made Lyra Heartstrings sex toy was put up for auction online. Soon after, waves of fan art started popping up everywhere depicting various characters demonstrating the use of the plush and its... erm... "cavity" as ''anything'' [[IncrediblyLamePun butt]] its intended use such a bag, boxing gloves, mittens, footwear, a mask, a quiver, a sleeping bag, a mail "box" and, most of all, a hand puppet.[[/labelnote]] |
| 610 | ** It even has an Blog/AskAPony [[http://asklyratheplushie.tumblr.com/ blog]]! |
| 611 | * Smoothie Lyra Don't Care [[labelnote:explanation]]One of Lyra's {{Running Gag}}s in the show is her drinking a hay smoothie with her hoof. In the episode "Magic Duel", she appears again with her hay smoothie, seeming completely uninterested in the fate of Ponyville being decided in front of her. This has led to some jokes and fanart about her not giving a flip while drinking a hay smoothie.[[/labelnote]] |
| 612 | * Lyra got shafted. [[labelnote:explanation]]The episode "Amending Fences" focuses on Twilight's old friends. Lyra Heartstrings is mentioned as one of these, but aside from the photo at the end doesn't actually appear onscreen.[[/labelnote]] |
| 613 | * Lyrabon is best Catdog. [[labelnote:explanation]]During a shared dream in "Do Princesses Dream of Magic Sheep", Lyra and Bonbon were fused together... and apparently very okay with it.[[/labelnote]] |
| 614 | * "[[FunetikAksent Loira]] u lil [[PrecisionFStrike shid]]!" [[labelnote:explanation]]Coined by fan artist Jargon Scott as Bon Bon's standard reaction upon Lyra's shenaningans.[[/labelnote]] |
| 615 | |
| 616 | [[AC:Doctor Whooves]] |
| 617 | * [[Series/DoctorWho Doctor Whoof/Whooves]]. [[labelnote:explanation]]Another background character, making his first prominent appearance in "Winter Wrap-Up", though he cameos in the pilot, a male pony with brown fur and an hourglass cutie mark who kinda looks like the Tenth Doctor.[[/labelnote]] |
| 618 | ** It also has a followup meme, involving splicing clips from the Doctor Who episode ''Day Of the Moon'' into clips of its show. [[labelnote:explanation]]Specifically, the clip where one of the Silence is recorded saying "You should kill us all on sight", and then turned into a post hypnotic suggestion so people can defeat them. This often gets superimposed on scenes of My Little Pony as a creepy spoof of subliminal messages.[[/labelnote]] |
| 619 | ** While [[http://comments.deviantart.com/4/1453017/2307272367 most likely a coincidence]], one of the background ponies during the party in "Sweet and Elite" looks suspiciously like the Eleventh Doctor. |
| 620 | ** A blue pony with a blonde mane from "The Best Night Ever", "Sweet and Elite", "[=MMMystery=] on the Friendship Express", and "A Canterlot Wedding - Part 2" looks like the Fifth Doctor. |
| 621 | *** He's speculated to be the Fifth Doctor, the Eleventh Doctor, or the Seventeenth Master [[labelnote:Explanation]]The Doctor's rival[[/labelnote]]. |
| 622 | ** "Sweet and Elite" also had [[FanNickname Pokey Pierce]] appear with an hourglass cutie mark while wearing a red tailcoat and an ascot, making him look like the Third Doctor. |
| 623 | ** There's a blue pegasus with wavy black hair and ''that'' cutie mark in "Sonic Rainboom" who appears for a couple of seconds, rather appropriate as it resembles the equally briefly-appearing Eighth Doctor. |
| 624 | ** In "The Super Speedy Cider Squeezy 6000" Doctor Whooves turns the sand timer for the competition. In other words, even the writers acknowledge that he should be ''in control of time''. |
| 625 | *** And the trading cards have turned it into an AscendedMeme, or at least as far as they can take it without drawing the ire of Creator/TheBBC. He appears on a card with Mayor Mare and is identified as Time Turner, Ponyville's official timekeeper -- whose duties, aside from hourglasses, include maintaining the city's clocks and "all other things ''timey-wimey''" (and yes, they italicized the MemeticMutation reference to make sure people would notice it). |
| 626 | * It seems that [[http://www.equestriadaily.com/2013/11/doctor-whooves-acknowledged-by-bbc.html the BBC knows.]] |
| 627 | [[/folder]] |
| 628 | |
| 629 | [[folder:Original Characters]] |
| 630 | * Krastos the Glue Maker [[labelnote:explanation]][[http://www.npr.org/2011/06/25/137386121/bill-clinton-plays-not-my-job During a game-show/interview on NPR]], former US president UsefulNotes/BillClinton stated "Krastos the Glue Maker" should be the lead villain on the show. Krastos has started to appear in fan art showing him interacting with the ponies (as well as jokes showing the characters reacting to bottles of glue), drawn as a human with long arms wearing a hat and bib overalls, a bear with a gluepot and hammer, an armored pony, and other designs.[[/labelnote]] |
| 631 | * Ponysonas [[labelnote:explanation]]A term used by the fandom to refer to ponified versions of themselves, depictions ranging from accurate and realistic to fantastical and outlandish designs. The term itself originated from the UsefulNotes/FurryFandom term "fursona", which is the depiction of oneself as an anthropomorphic animal, which itself is originated from the word "Persona".[[/labelnote]] |
| 632 | ** Alicorn {{Original Character}}s / ponysonas are Suetiful! [[labelnote:explanation]]Due to the depictions of alicorns as special, rare and powerful beings in the show, the fandom has an almost universal aversion towards alicorn {{Original Character}}s and ponysonas. This often manifests in the fandom as fan work mocking the idea of an alicorn OC. The strength of this idea within the fandom's collective psyche has waned a little since the introduction of additional alicorns in the show and further depictions of them in the cartoon showing that they are not as god-like as the fandom thought they were.[[/labelnote]] |
| 633 | ** Donut Steel [[labelnote:explanation]]A mutation of the phrase "Do Not Steal" - a phrase used in the early days of the fandom when people were using the various pony creator applications to create bizarre pony characters, typically including recoloring of existing pony elements. These would often be shared around but with the phrase "original character - do not steal", despite the fact most would not want to claim that look for themselves. The phrase morphed to become "Donut Steel" to represent any "original" character that lacked significant originality (like recolors of any show pony).[[/labelnote]] |
| 634 | * Ponified Show Staffs / Show Staff Ponysonas [[labelnote:explanation]]Besides the fandom at large, the show's staff and crew also have their own ponysonas, either was created for them by the fandom or entirely by themselves.[[/labelnote]] |
| 635 | ** Fausticorn [[labelnote:explanation]]After Creator/LaurenFaust [[http://www.equestriadaily.com/2011/09/exclusive-season-1-retrospective.html drew her own ponysona]] the fandom almost immediately accepted her as a new OC, declaring her to be the third alicorn of Equestria, or even Celestia and Luna's parent. Still there's that matter with reclassifying species though.[[/labelnote]] |
| 636 | *** Fausticorn is the exception. [[labelnote:explanation]]As the creator of ''Friendship is Magic'', Lauren Faust is considered an exception to the Alicorn taboo (see also: Alicorn [=OCs=] are Suetiful!)[[/labelnote]] |
| 637 | *** Alicorn Bonnie Zacherle. [[labelnote:explanation]]Bonnie Zacherle created the Franchise/MyLittlePony franchise in the first place, so she should be allowed to represent herself as an alicorn too, if she so chooses.[[/labelnote]] |
| 638 | ** Sibsy's Wild Fire [[labelnote:explanation]]As memetic as Lauren Faust's ponysona, Wild Fire is a creation of senior storyboard artist Sabrina "Sibsy" Alberghetti. Initially was created as a ponified version of herself since [[http://fav.me/d47hb6p "everyone else was doing one"]], the fandom named her "Wild Fire" and was [[http://fav.me/d47xkjb accepted]] by Sibsy as the pony's name. She then began making more artwork of her until eventually the fandom took interest and started incorporating Wild Fire in their fan works. Her depictions range from bored, annoyed, or grumpy to having full-on anger issues, and she commonly displays a passion for racecars similar to the real Sibsy. Wild Fire then made a cameo in the show itself as an extra by Sibsy's request.[[/labelnote]] |
| 639 | ** Corey Powell's dragon. [[labelnote:explanation]]Nearly all the other staff writers and animators have pony {{Original Character}}s, but Corey as a dragon stands out. This stuck after the episode [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS3E8JustForSidekicks "Just for Sidekicks"]] (written by Corey) aired; as it turned out to be a ([=YMMV=]) good Spike episode, [[https://derpibooru.org/224551 one drawing]] postulated that only dragons can write good dragon episodes, and drew Corey as a dragon.[[/labelnote]] |
| 640 | * [[DamnedByFaintPraise I really like her/his... mane?]] [[labelnote:explanation]]Often said in response to seeing someone's OC as a reference to Sweetie Belle's reaction to Twilight's less-than-impressive "Smarty Pants" doll.[[/labelnote]] |
| 641 | ** I ''really'' like her/his mane! [[labelnote:explanation]]Another reference, in this case it's to Sweetie Belle's reaction once Twilight brainwashes her into liking the "Smarty Pants" doll. Generally used for cases when someone's OC is actually considered a pretty cool pony design.[[/labelnote]] |

| 646 | * Snowdrop [[labelnote:explanation]]The original character from the fan-made animation, ''WebAnimation/Snowdrop2013'', an adorable - but blind - filly. Though most art of her is very cute, it's quite hard not to make jokes around the character in a ImGoingToHellForThis -type of way. For example, having a reaction image of Snowdrop with the phrase "I can't see what you did there", the aforementioned "sliding ponies" meme with Snowdrop getting the trajectory wrong, or a Snowdrop point-of-view image consisting of a black screen.[[/labelnote]] |
| 647 | * Wheely Bopper [[labelnote:explanation]]A pegasus mare with wheels for legs who appears to be the ponification of the Duckroll meme.

Most are coming from an artist only known as "∀", a user from Website/DeviantART called "[[http://superrobotrainbowpig.deviantart.com/ SuperRobotRainbowPig]]" and a CharacterBlog [[http://wheelybopper.tumblr.com/ starring her]].[[/labelnote]] |

Jan eventually revealed her name to be Cream Heart, but people hardly care and often going on calling her Button's Mom.[[/labelnote]] |
