* ComiclyMissingThePoint: Trixie is very prone to this.

** Trixie herself becomes this, partially because of The Ghost's influence.
* KarmaHoudini: Despite never learning her lesson in the Vs. Hearts Warming episodes, Santa always leaves Trixie a present.

* NoNameGiven: The Hearts Warming Ghost that visits Trixie is never named and Trixie only ever refers to her as ghost or spirit. LampShaded, when Trixie says "Farwell ghost whose name Trixie can never remember".
* OcularGushers: Trixie does this after her pet rock, somehow ''dies'' after she reminisced about her many childhood pets, that are no longer with her.

* RediculislyCuteCritter: Anytime we see Trixie as a filly.
* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: The Hearths Warming Ghost gives an ''epic'' one to Trixie, after the latter tagged along with her, while she was trying to help Rainbow Dash with her own issues, only for Trixie to do nothing but make the situation worse:
--> '''Ghost:''' You are by far the most arrogant, obnoxious, contemptible, and oblivious pony that I have ever had the displeasure of having met in all my years...
--> '''Trixie:''' Trixie…
--> '''Ghost:''' Don’t interrupt me. Now as I was saying... You're without any empathy, tact, humility...
--> (Later, back at Trixie's wagon.)
--> '''Ghost:''' Your soul is an appalling dump heap, overflowing with the most disgraceful assortment of rubbish imaginable.
--> (Several hours later)
--> '''Ghost:''' ...And with that, my time here is done. But next year, I will go all out to finally get this done.
** Not that any of that had the slightest effect on her.
