Most people who watch the show to this point wouldn\'t say Pinkie inflating to a balloon is a BLAM. Otherwise, almost every episode would have this trope on their page.

* UnpopularPopularCharacter: Trenderhoof describes fan-favorite MemeticBystander Derpy as "unappreciated" in-universe.
** This could be a meta-joke, seeing as this was one of Derpy's first cameos after Derpygate (where the Pegasus's sequence in "The Last Roundup" was retroactively censored due to complaints) led to her not appearing at all in Season 3 aside from the finale.

This isn\'t a YMMV, and the example is a Square Peg Round Trope. The trope is for when the target of sarcasm finds it funny himself, e.g. if Spike were to mock Rarity\'s Innocently Insensitive behavior and she were to laugh at herself.
