* OnceOriginalNowOverdone: Much of the fanfic's infamy came from the fact that there were hardly any grim-fics in the fandom back then. Cupcakes took nearly everyone by surprise. But now? With many other dark fics that rival that of Cupcakes (like ''Fanfic/RainbowFactory'', ''Fanfic/FalloutEquestria'' and ''Fanfic/FalloutEquestriaProjectHorizons''), the shock factor that held it up isn't there anymore.

* {{Narm}}: For anyone who can look past the describes atrocities themselves, the overly excessive descriptions of gore and BodyHorror can come across as darkly funny. In fact, this is partially intentional on the part of the author, who wrote it as a challenge to write the most schlocky ExploitationFilm-inspired fic he could, especially with all the bad jokes Pinkie cracks while disembowling Rainbow.

* NightmareRetardant: While many readers do find the story [[NightmareFuel genuinely horrifying]], others think that the poor grammar of the writing (though a rewrite exists that corrects this) and various bits of FridgeLogic make the story hard to take seriously.

** In the story itself, Pinkie wears [[GenuineHumanHide a dress made of stitched-together cutie marks and wings of many ponies]]. One famous piece of fanart shows that Luna's cutie mark is among them, leading fans to assume that this fanfic's version of Pinkie [[DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu managed to murder]] a PhysicalGoddess, something which even TV Tropes claimed was part of the story for years. The actual story, however, never specifies whose cutie marks make up the dress, and Luna is never mentioned at all.

** Everyone "knows" this fic started the trend of Pinkie having a violent, stoic alter ego that goes by "Pinkamena Diane Pie", inspired by a disturbing scene in "[[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS1E25PartyOfOne Party of One]]" where a flat-haired and schizoid Pinkie has a conversation with various inanimate objects. Not only was the fic released ''[[OlderThanTheyThink before]]'' "Party of One" premiered, but Pinkie is her usual curly-maned and cheerful self despite torturing ponies to death, and this supposed "Pinkamena" alter ego never appears at all. A lot of the unease of the fic comes from the fact that Pinkie, as her normal happy-go-lucky hyperactive self, is either unaware of or apathetic to the horrors she's committing; an [[JekyllAndHyde evil and murderous alternate personality]] would defeat the whole point. The blog ''Blog/AskPinkaminaDianePie'' probably didn't help.
