Line #32 YMMV/AskAPony


1	* {{Adorkable}}:
2	** OC Ice Pack has [[http://askicepack.tumblr.com/post/15873876022/zecora his]] [[http://askicepack.tumblr.com/post/16829363866/my-expression-has-been-criticized-before-i-have moments.]]
3	** [[http://askthepiesisters.tumblr.com/post/11054716023/we-have-rocks-for-every-budget-so-come-on-down Let Inkie tell you about pet rocks!]]
4	** Luna from Blog/AskPrincessMolestia is an avid GamerChick and so cute she can [[http://27.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m36kchZV9Q1r3xauuo1_1280.png cause heart attacks]]!
5	* AlternativeCharacterInterpretation: Niggertron: Does he truly believe in the low-grade racial stereotypes he's making, or is he just a Creator/MelBrooks-type comedian whose actions and character are based on {{Affectionate\|Parody}}[=-=]StealthParody?
6	* AssPull:
7	** ''Ask Twixie Genies'', [[spoiler:TheReveal that a genie's ThouShallNotKill policy regarding wishes ''only'' applies to mortals. Not only was this never alluded to before it becomes "convenient" for [[BigBad the Sultan]], not only does it cause the series to suffer from the age old "immortals cannot kill mortals but can ''totally'' kill fellow immortals" cliche, but it honestly feels like a tacked on {{Retcon}} that was done solely for the sake of a "dramatic" DisneyDeath.]] What really makes this sting is that [[spoiler:since the Sultan's wish was only for Twilight to "disappear", many thought she had simply been teleported away. Nope! DisneyDeath. Because clearly death is the only way to make a story dramatic or to make the villain seem threatening]].
8	** Though it also serves another purpose of presumably explaining how [[spoiler:Trixie was able to kill the immortal Sultan in return]].
9	** Discorded Whooves will do this so many times, fans become tired of it (mainly the constant moments where Dissy looks like he's getting better only to randomly go back to being Discorded later on).
10	* SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic: [[http://askikeapony.tumblr.com/post/16859407276/maybe-if-enough-ponies-like-this-my-sister-and-i Ask Pia Ikea]] covering Music/JonathanCoulton's "Ikea", rewritten for ponies!
11	** Something must also be said for [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UJas6-0X2n0&list=PLC06AC6DE34D4188C&index=109&feature=plpp_video Discord's version of "Still Alive"]] from Statued Discord Replies.
12	* BaseBreakingCharacter:
13	** Discorded Whooves is beloved by fans for his complex characterization while others dislike him for his actions and his overall Wangst attitude.
14	** [[spoiler:Onyx]] from Ask Princess Twilight Sparkle. He's either a genuinely terrifying villain who's a good KnightOfCerebus and [[spoiler:who Twilight being genuinely afraid of makes sense because he's a serial killer, something she's never faced before]] or he's cheep and overpowered.
15	* BrokenBase:
16	** The participation of Ask the Crusaders in the ''Webcomic/VocationalDeathCruise''. A lot of fans preferred when the Crusaders were answering questions in-character over the darker turn the blog had taken. However, there are also a lot of fans who appreciate the attempt to fit the Crusaders into VDC and are interested in knowing where the blog will be going with this. It helps that the blog will occasionally shift back to answering questions in between events from time to time. Regardless, VDC at this time makes up the vast majority of the content on that blog, giving making it hard to avoid while looking through the blog.
17	** ''Blog/DiscordedWhooves'' for some: Some enjoy the tumblr as it is, others find it suffering HypeBacklash, others just find it could have been better.
18	* CompleteMonster:
19	** ''[[http://i-dream-of-twilight-sparkle.tumblr.com/ Ask Genie Twilight]]'''s "Return to Saddle Arabia" arc: [[EvilChancellor Vicegerent Zathir]] believes Genies should be bound to their master's will and captures Twilight with a black lamp to leave her [[AndIMustScream aware but unable to defy his commands]]. Planning to use her to conquer her own homelands, Zathir's tool leaves her in a constant state of feeling [[ElectricTorture electric shock]] and if she isn't freed from his control in three days, will be tortured by the pain for eternity. Persuading his superior to allow his plans to go uninterrupted by allowing him to [[RapeIsASpecialKindOfEvil rape Twilight]], Zathir later tries to have her murder her friends and loved ones.
20	** ''Blog/AskJappleack'': [[VillainousGlutton Appelox]], the former Titan of Honesty, one of the ancient [[OurTitansAreDifferent Titans]] who created Equestria, later betrayed his siblings and ate all of them, and became a [[PlanetEater reality-eating monster]]. In the present, Appelox had been devouring entire planes of existence, all of which were populated, to build up enough power to break a barrier his sister Twilus had placed around Equestria Prime--the version of Equestria seen in [[WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic the show]]--and complete his consumption of the Multiverse. While talking to Jappleack, Appelox reveals that he was also the one who had sent his two sons, [[WebAnimation/PonyDotMov Discord and Wolflor]], to destroy everything and everyone in her version of Equestria, and is the reason that her sister is dead.
21	* EnsembleDarkhorse: Some of these blogs are a major reason why some characters from the show are this. [[http://askrubypinch.tumblr.com/ Ask Ruby Pinch]], [[http://ask-echo-wonderbolt.tumblr.com/ Echo Fleetfoot]], and [[http://asksurprise.tumblr.com/ Surprise]] are some prime examples. Much of their popularity and Fanon comes from them.
22	* HarsherInHindsight: ''Everything'' about ''Lovestruck Derpy'', considering what it's a prequel [[http://askdiscordwhooves.tumblr.com/ to]]... [[http://lovestruck-derpy.tumblr.com/post/31592544781/thanks-for-5k-followers-poor-doctor-i-think THIS]] is arguably the best example of this trope in action.
23	** According to WordOfGod, Lovestruck Derpy and Discord Whooves are actually on different, parallel timelines.
24	** [[http://ask-thecrusaders.tumblr.com/post/14142444980/question-28 This question]] on the Ask the Cutie Mark Crusaders Blog considering [[spoiler:what happens to poor Sweetie Belle on the Webcomic/VocationalDeathCruise, particularly due to [[BreakTheCutie how unfunny that turns out]]]].
25	** At the end of [[http://timeoutwithdoctorwhooves.tumblr.com/ Time Out With Doctor Whooves']] Halloween special, Discorded Whooves warns the Doctor that [[spoiler:Ditzy will abandon him the moment he stops being useful to her]]. To the casual reader, this is just Dissy being [[{{Jerkass}} his usual self]], but those who know the plot of ''Discorded Whooves'' thus far will realize that [[spoiler:Dissy is speaking from his own experiences with his version of Ditzy]].
26	** Ask King Sombra's "musical revolution" becomes a ''lot'' less funny when it's revealed that [[spoiler:hundreds of innocent ponies and wolves died, and Sombra's sickeningly selfish reaction to the carnage he directly caused]].
27	* SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoments: Surprisingly enough, from the mother of Grimdark blogs: [[http://ponibooru.413chan.net/post/view/75001 Ask Pinkamina]] [[http://ponibooru.413chan.net/post/view/75018 Diane]] [[http://ponibooru.413chan.net/post/view/75306 Pie.]]
28	* InferredHolocaust:
29	** Discussed in ''Ask Genie Twilight''. [[spoiler:Now that Twilight is a Genie, she's naturally going to outlive all her friends except for Spike and the Princesses. This implication is actually fully explored in the tumblr, and Twilight ultimately decides eternal life will be workable since she'll always have Spike, at least.]]
30	** Upon taking over Equestria, Fury Belle and her Cohorts [[GroinAttack cut off the Balls of Every Stallion in Equestria]]. ....How are they supposed to reproduce now?
31	* JerkassWoobie:
32	** Discorded Whooves. He's a womanizing, alcoholic, sarcastic and [[spoiler:physically abusive]] asshole, but as the story unfolds and we see into his mindset (mainly how he's filled to the brim with deep self-loathing, and his attitude is essentially his way of coping with a world that, in his Discorded mind, has abandoned him), and you can't help but pity him.
33	** [[http://asktwixiegenies.tumblr.com/ Twixie Genies Twilight]]. At first she acts like a JackassGenie to Trixie, ultimately tricking her into becoming a genie as well...because after a ''real'' JackassGenie who turned Twilight into a genie in the first place, she was left alone in the cave it happened in for ''months'' and turned Trixie into a genie because she couldn't take the loneliness anymore.
34	* MemeticMutation:
35	** When Chubbie Pinkie Pie fired Chubbie Rainbow Dash out of a cannon, blogs everywhere started having Chubbie Rainbow Dash zoom past their blog's character in the middle of something. Then [[http://askfirestarterspitfire.tumblr.com/post/14191087301/bwobbyquest Bwobbyquest]] happened, and essentially knocked the meme for six.
36	** Misty the Wonderbolt's hoodie inspired a fair few reactions.
37	** Pictures wishing the mod of Filly Twilight a happy birthday dominated dashboards of tumblr users for days on end.
38	** Any time Lil-Miss-Rarity does more or less anything at all, a Mexican Wave of reactions springs up.
39	** Whereas Discord Whooves seems to be her SpearCounterpart in this regard. Though when you put them together, it's [[http://askdiscordwhooves.tumblr.com/post/16055527986/it-took-me-weeks-to-get-the-rainbow-stains-off-my rather clear]] who the winner is...
40	** Even the MOD of Discord Whooves has been deemed this ([[http://asklaurastuff.tumblr.com/post/21099675267/http-askashmonsterr-tumblr-com-is-the-master as seen here]]) for being a (possible) bishonen, pansexual, and being very, very open about discussing sexual topics on his [[http://jitterbugjive.tumblr.com/ mod blog]]. The fact that he blurs out his face in every pic he posts makes him even more appealing to many.
41	* {{Moe}}: Sweetie Belle of [=AskTheCrusaders=]. [[spoiler:Losing her fur during the Webcomic/VocationalDeathCruise]] somehow made her even more irresistibly adorable. [[http://ask-thecrusaders.tumblr.com/post/24663521615/sweetie-so-many-lovemails-for-me-over-one See for yourself]]
42	* MoralEventHorizon: [[spoiler:[[BigBad Vicegerent]] [[EvilChancellor Zathir]]]] from ''Ask Genie Twilight'' crossed it by [[spoiler:subjecting Twilight to an AndIMustScream form of mind control in his bid to conquer the world.]] It's little wonder [[http://bronyinabottle.tumblr.com/post/116866749102/i-hope-zathirs-defeat-is-equally-disgraceful-and viewers started asking for his excruciating demise]] after that. If not then, he definitely crossed it when he tries to [[spoiler:[[http://i-dream-of-twilight-sparkle.tumblr.com/post/117270120088/act-3-page-20-twilight-looks-from-outside-the murder Spike]] in revenge for his plans coming undone.]]
43	* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodPlot:
44	** Dethklop turned down the chance to perform at the [[http://dethklop.tumblr.com/post/24482813537/part-1 Royal]] [[http://dethklop.tumblr.com/post/24482817163/part-2 Wedding]] on the grounds that weddings are not metal. It's also why Luna skipped the wedding: she'd only attend if Dethklop played.
45	** Blog/DiscordedWhooves for some. Some felt the tumblr could have been '''so much better''' which Whooves being like The Doctor was in "The Waters of Mars" or "The Snowman", but instead he's written as being a complete {{Jerkass}} that seems to have the power to get two mares around his hoof. It doesn't help that when people ''try'' to suggest some new ideas to the mod, he reacts negatively.
46	** Miss Twilight Sparkle for some. Because it was ''originally'' a stand alone tumblr, some felt the story of her recovery during her suicide attempts was solid. But following the mod's collaborations with Blog/DiscordedWhooves, the tumblr has become rather despised. It doesn't help that Dissy only makes her get ''worse'', all while in Motherly Scootaloo it gives the idea that she's getting better..
47	* TheScrappy:
48	** '''Miss Twilight Sparkle'''. She's primarily has half of the Dissy fanbase dislike her due to either being irrelevant to the plot of the entire blog, or just '''not being Derpy'''. It doesn't help with the unfortunate implications surrounding her character being in love with the Doctor despite how unstable he is (and apparently ''Not knowing about Derpy'') and the creator of the tumblr, PrincessMarshmallow is friends with JitterBugJive, leading to some to believe the two characters paired up ''because of this''.
