History ShoutOut / Hoofstuck

* Carrot Top refers to herself as "a simple mare with simple dreams", quoting the fan song [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2z5eizH0u1I "Beyond Her Garden"]]. And later: "I'm going far, far beyond my garden, Bubblecup."

* A mysterious pony tries to remember Fluttershy's name -- "Posie or something?" Again, a G1 reference.

* Most of the Rainbow Ponies are G1 characters who appeared in the "Ember's Dream" cassette story. As for Rainbow Dash's "Aunt" Ember, her design is based on [[http://mylittlewiki.org/wiki/File:Ember_pilot.PNG this one's]].
* [[http://mspfanventures.com/?s=484&p=378 Ember and Velvet]] [[http://mylittlewiki.org/w/images/b/b4/RAMC36.jpg go way back.]]

* Rainbow Dash crashes into the taffy machine. "Boy, when you go to visit Pinkie, you expect to have a good time, [[Fanfic/CupcakesSergeantSprinkles not to be turned into some sort of colorful food!]]"
* The page "[[http://mspfanventures.com/?s=484&p=80 TS: Play a wicked trumpet solo to unwind a little]]" contains a reference to the FunnyBackgroundEvent [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WsS-ZH38nTU in this video]].

** Later: "I'm going far, far beyond my garden, Bubblecup."

* Bubblecup says "I am not a clever pony", alluding to a certain [[https://www.youtube.com/user/iamnotacleverpony fan]] [[http://notacleverpony.bandcamp.com musician]].
* In order to enter the Medium, Pinkie Pie needs to destroy her cruxite artifact, shaped like Rainbow Dash, with a knife. Unlike [[Fanfic/CupcakesSergeantSprinkles a certain fanfic counterpart]], she does not savor the idea of carving up Dashie.

* Some writing on the wall can be seen [[http://mspfanventures.com/?adv=484&id=481 here]] saying [[VideoGame/{{Portal}} "The cakes are alive."]]

There are a boatload of references and {{Running Gag}}s taken from the [[WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic source]] [[Webcomic/{{Homestuck}} materials]]. There are also some references to the MLP fandom itself (e.g. [[Memes/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic memes]], popular fanon, and [[Characters/FriendshipIsMagicBackgroundPonies background ponies]]).

* The Dewey Decimal System of Twilight's Fetch Modus [[NamesTheSame has the same name]] as [[{{Fanfic/Anthropology}} another pony's adopted father]]. This may be unintentional, though.

* "Certainly you got rather more adventure than you bargained for today -- [[Fanfic/ItsADangerousBusinessGoingOutYourDoor it’s a dangerous business, really, walking out your front door]]..."
** In [S] R: Walk around, this message pops up when trying to cross the InsurmountableWaistHeightFence as Rarity:
-->You cannot cross the fence because you don't know how to teleport.
-->If only you would encounter some sort of mother goddess figure of another species who could teach you to sort of shimmer in and out of existence, far more elegantly than even Twilight does. Such a [[StealthPun shimmer would]] be wonderful.
* There's a reference to ''WebVideo/FriendshipIsWitchcraft'''s unusual {{Sound Effect Bleep}}s when Twilight accidentally uproots one of AJ's trees.
-->[[SoundEffectBleep Buy some apples!]] ...[[SubvertedTrope is what you’re going to have to do to make this up to her, you bet]].[[note]]Alternatively, "Buy some apples!" could be read as the actual curse, with Twilight making a quick recovery afterward.[[/note]]

* Fluttershy recalls the story of ''Daring Do and [[Literature/TheLadyOrTheTiger the Lady and the Tiger]]''.

* Non-pony mythology: For the baking competition, Love Lock hired an official time keeper. Said keeper is a curly-maned pony with a long scarf and hourglass cutiemark, aka the ponified Fourth Doctor, with the task of determining the best ''[[TomBaker timed baker]]''.

* "All you have to do is be that authority and say something simple like [[Francise/{{Terminator}} 'come with me if you want to live,']] and they'll follow along without asking any time-wasting questions."
