I\'ve done a bit of cleanup, but there are a few examples that I\'m not sure of. For instance, with the Stargate Atlantis example, crating particles that break the laws of physics and leads to an EarthShatteringKaboom that destroys allmost all of a solar system is impressive, but does that qualify this for this trope(I.E. did it need to threaten reality itself, which is my understanding of the trope?)

*** Of course, in the former case, this was deliberately invoked by Princess Celestia, who invited all of Twilight\\\'s friends in the hopes that they would \\\"liven up\\\" the party, and having already met them, knowing exactly what sort of mischief that would likely entail (though, in their defense, in Rarity\\\'s case it was the Canterlot pony who was boorish). The latter case is less excusable, though ironically, Twilight (who stayed out of trouble the last time) is from Canterlot, and was acting [[GettingCrapPastTheRadar drunk at the time.]]

Just because Princess Celestia tried to invoke it doesn\\\'t make it justified. If anything, it validates the snobs\\\' position! These people, only two of which are actually initially from Ponyville (Pinkie\\\'s from a rock farm, Fluttershy and RD are from Cloudsdale, and Twilight\\\'s from Canterlot), all currently live in Ponyville, and all of a sudden, Rarity is the only one to be able to go to a big fancy party without ruining it for everyone else, going so far as to force their crappy behavior onto others! For God\\\'s sake, Blueblood, the aforementioned Canterlot boor in the above example and one of the most popular punching bags in the fandom for his crappy behavior of Rarity in \\\'\\\'Best Night Ever\\\'\\\', managed to \\\'\\\'not act like a complete dipshit\\\'\\\' that episode, which is a lot more than you can say about the rest of the Mane Six!
