History YMMV / MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS6E12FlutterBrutter

* NoYay: Rainbow Dash's frightened rejection toward Zephyr advancing towards her.

* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodPlot: While Fluttershy had Zephyr work for Rarity, Twilight and Rainbow Dash, she didn't have him work for Applejack nor Pinkie Pie.

* TheScrappy: Before the episode aired, the idea of Zephyr Breeze sparked some debate. While some fans found the idea quite interesting, since he's the antithesis of CoolBigBro-type characters like Shining Armor and Big Macintosh, others are wary of the possible negative stereotype the show is giving him. And when the episode finally did air, he only became even more of this when some fans just found him to be an emotionally manipulative ManChild, while others ultimately came to see him as a legitimately troubled JerkassWoobie (especially during his eventual GoMadFromTheIsolation scene in the Everfree). That said, it is really hard not hate Zephyr Breeze since he is totally unlikeable and lazy asshole unable to do everything for most of the episode. Granted, [[IntendedAudienceReaction he was meant to be unlikable]], but for some, Zephyr went beyond the point of LoveToHate.

[[YouAreWhatYouHate It doesn't help that]] [[ThisLoserIsYou he hits too close to home for some]]. Granted, [[IntendedAudienceReaction he was meant to be unlikable]], but for some, Zephyr went past LoveToHate and straight into this.

* UnintentionallyUnsympathetic: Zephyr, in spades. Had he merely been a lazy ShrinkingViolet, then he likely would've still been fine to most fans. But instead, he's both actively overbearing and a conscious ManipulativeBastard against all of his potential employers, thus making his aforementioned DespairEventHorizon scene in the Everfree just come across as LaserGuidedKarma to many viewers instead.

* TaintedByThePreview: When this episode's synopsis was announced, it created quite a stir. A [[AudienceSurrogate male pony]] who is a shut in and fears failure is [[AdultFear forced to leave the comforts of the inside on his own? For some,]] Zephyr Breeze [[ThisLoserIsYou resonated a little]] ''[[TearJerker too]]'' [[NightmareFuel close to home]], and fans weren't flattered about the insensitivity. Thankfully, it seems that a preview, which shows him in action, may have calmed some of those fears.

** Jokes about Zephyr Breeze and [[FanNickname Flutterdad's]] hair have also become somewhat common, usually joking about the former's noticeable man-bun and the fact that the latter's hair looks like swirly ice cream.

* MemeticMutation: GET A JOB. [[labelnote:Explanation]]One quick-witted individual already saw the possible parallels between this episode and the ''WesternAnimation/SpongeBobSquarePants'' episode "Can You Spare A Dime?" and made a picture of Fluttershy offering the "GET A JOB" soup bowl.[[/labelnote]]

** Remember when Twilight had a brother no one knew about? Well now Fluttershy has a brother no one knew about.

* HilariousInHindsight: Given the spelling in the title, "Flutter Brutter" sounds a lot like the "Flutter Butter" meme of putting [[ShapedLikeItself Fluttershy's mane and tail on a stick of butter]].
