My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic/Memes



My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic creates 20% more memes in ten seconds flat. For more information, check out Know Your Meme.

General Memes

 * "WELCOME TO THE HERD"
 * "CONFOUND THESE PONIES, THEY DRIVE ME TO DRINK!"
 * "...in my hooves, on my head, in my saddlebags... in my mouth!"
 * SECRET BUTT FUN
 * Scary butt fun!
 * Gyro Bowls.
 * "SHOO BE DOO"
 * Not so much a meme about the show as about the fandom: It's become something of a tradition among male fans to advertise their gender, age, and (sometimes) occupation in the comments section of the episodes posted on Youtube, often immediately followed by stating the name of a favorite pony or a general, "... and I love this show!"
 * A common variation is to comment on one of the earlier, but not the first ten, episodes, stating something along the lines of "why am I still watching this?".
 * I am gonna LOVE and TOLERATE the SHIT outta you.
 * "Love and tolerance" my ass!
 * STOP FAPPING TO HORSES
 * I can/can't clop to this.
 * FiM is technically furry
 * Thanks to the infamous "I watch it for the plot" image macro, "plot" has become a popular euphemism for pony rump.
 * Pony variations of the DAT ASS meme include DAT PLOT, DAT FLANK, and DAT CUTIE MARK.
 * Less popular, but this also makes "plot hole" a valid and stealthy insult.
 * And of course, it tends to be combined with Twilight Sparkle's Unfortunate Name, leading to jokes about Twilight having well developed plot etc.
 * Fans have copied the Hold Your Hippogriffs instances from the show, and created more of their own. In particular, it is almost required for "anypony", "everypony" and variants to be used amongst fans, even when not referring to the characters.
 * "My Little [X]"
 * "Friendship Is [X]" / "[X] Is Magic".
 * "AND X MAKES IT ALL COMPLETE!"
 * Thank Celestia for Lauren Faust
 * "Can you do that? Can you explode twice?!"
 * And then nothing sexual happened at all. The end.
 * And then everything sexual happened. The end.
 * Truth Flower
 * In the same vein, there's also a YouTube video of Miles Edgeworth cross-examining Pinkie Pie's "testimony" from the episode in question.
 * "They know!"
 * "Bedroom eyes", taking a screenshot while a character is blinking their eyes and catching them half-lidded. The result is an expression that looks coy when taken out of context (as the Internet is often eager to do).
 * The phrase had become memetic waaay before ponies, mind, but the nature of Flash animation's keyframing makes it particularly easy to abuse in this show.
 * A metric ton of reaction images on the whole, but most notably by far the ponyshrug. Began with an innocent Pinkie Pie, and quickly exploded. Ponyshrugs may now be found of nearly the entire cast, as well as of original characters, and even ponified versions of characters from other works.
 * A fancomic that was made to look like an official German magazine comic has spawned a couple memes of its own:
 * Terry.
 * "Around the zebras, never relax!"
 * "All my friends are here. And Applejack is here too."
 * "[X] IS NOW CANON"
 * Tara Strong is best pony.
 * Pony hell.
 * "IT WAS CHANGELINGS!"
 * "Veggie55 brought me here": more of a Real Life Running Gag than anything. With the end of Season 2, the Deviant ART artist Veggie55 has taken to making short comic strips based of scenes from popular tv shows like Father Ted and Family Guy. In the comments section for each, he usually links to the video, which leads to his legion of fans watching it, liking it, and getting the top rated comments, most of them referencing the comic (something which non-bronies would not understand). Exempli gratia.

Crossover Memes

 * Crossing Friendship Is Magic with anything and everything has become a meme all of its own. Portal (Better Living Through Science and Ponies and plenty of other fics), Team Fortress 2 (endless Gmod works with both casts), Touhou (crossed with everything anyway), Doctor Who (thanks to the popularity of Doctor Whoof), The Slender Man Mythos, Panty and Stocking With Garterbelt (thanks to Twilight Sparkle and Stocking having similar haircuts and color schemes), Star Trek (thanks to John de Lancie aka Q voicing Discord), Metal Gear, and many more. And practically every character ever has been "ponified" at least once.
 * Speaking of TF2, the Scout has often been comically paired up/shipped with Rainbow Dash due to his infamous "Rainbows make me cry" meme.
 * Some madman went so far as to cross it over with Sins of a Solar Empire, of all things.
 * I will see your epic space strategy and raise you the Napoleonic Wars.
 * In regards to the ponies on Gmod, there's also EPPALJECK, the name given to the creepy beta version of the Applejack rag-doll. She is Nightmare Fuel incarnate, and pretty much the Friendship is Magic equivalent of Vagineer and Painis Cupcake.
 * Objection! Why didn't you testify to the fact that there's three parts of a four-part crossover with Phoenix Wright are currently available on YouTube?
 * MAGNETO.
 * In an "Evolution of a Scene", made by one of the animators on the show (for both season one and two), at the end there is an animation of pony Magneto at the gala, using the pony statue to take down the Wonderbolts while saying "WELCOME TO DIE!!!"
 * Magneighto has even become an official Canon Foreigner by appearing on The Merch, specifically the Magnet Pony shirt and formerly hoodie.
 * Spider-Man's a brony
 * So am I!
 * Congratulations! Your Twilight Sparkle has evolved into Rapidash!
 * Kamen Rider Fourze crossovers have begun to take hold, thanks to Gentaro's goal to befriend everyone in his school. LUNA, GRAB MY POMPADOUR!
 * It has become somewhat popular to mix "Lesson Zero" with Majoras Mask, due to how the sun moves.
 * Celestia Trolls Luna when she plays Mario, but Luna trolls her when Celestia plays Majora's Mask...
 * "What is this fun thou speakest of?" "F" is for friends who do stuff together...
 * IT'S NOT JUST A BOULDER, IT'S A ROCK!
 * In general, if the fandom can connect an FiM meme to one from SpongeBob, they will do so.
 * The Engineer is a Spy! Team Fortress 2 and MLP:FiM are very popular. In these crossovers, Applejack is usually the Engineer and Rarity is usually the Spy. In "Sisterhooves Social",
 * Going with the "Princess Cadence is X" meme below, there's [[hottip:explanation: Queen Chrysalis' plan of
 * THIS is what happens when you BUCK a STRANGER in the FLANK!
 * Nopony bucks with the Jesus.
 * My Little Steampunk
 * Daft Pony
 * X Y is best Y
 * X Y is worst Y
 * Jedi ponies
 * Rainbow Dash is Daredevil
 * LIKE A FAUST!
 * A shot of Pinkie Pie waxing to Rainbow Dash about delicious cider looked uncannily like the "X, X Everywhere" meme. Fans pounced.

Website Specific Memes

 * Two of Equestria Daily's most well-known moderators, Cereal Velocity and Sethisto, have a serious thing for unicorns. Cereal firmly believes that "Rarity is the best pony!", while Sethisto firmly believes that "Trixie is the best pony"! The unicorn-love extends to their newest blogger Phoe, who runs the Artist Training Grounds and seems to have a serious crush on Lyra Heartstrings. Pretty much every ATG day has at least a few drawings referencing her obsession with Lyra using that day's theme. And now we have this.
 * *cue happy theme song*
 * Roboshi, Anchors, & yellowtdash are universal constants/fav'd this
 * They are typically considered the Ponibooru "mascots", as they are the three most known members of ponibooru.
 * They have a tumblr which can be found here.
 * Roboshi is credited with being the originator of faving whereas anchors is considered the fastest with a capped record of 2,000+ per day, Yellow is an artist who does the artwork behind the tumblr.
 * Faustpony loves her Subway sandwiches. [[hottip:explanation: During a period where several Rule34 pictures of Lauren Faust's alicorn OC were posted, many pictures were edited with Subway sandwiches replacing... certain body parts. Even now, it is not uncommon to see Lauren's alicorn [[http://img.ponibooru.org/_images/d594ab09bb188725edd8a417563c0e3a/99968%20-
 * And on that note..."Subway -- eat flesh."
 * It's not just Lauren; many other canon ponies have been shopped into similar fashions, as well.
 * Ask Tumblrs / "Ask [X]" / "[X] Answers"
 * Chubbies/Blobs
 * Rainbow Dash Chubby Flyby
 * Now with its own TVTropes page!
 * "MAKE IT HAPPEN"
 * December 9th is National Child Violence Day!
 * Nazi Ponies
 * Speaking of Nazis, Rarity's line "I didn't know you could burn juice!" is frequently misheard as "I didn't know you could burn Jews!" (Which gets even more bizarre in light of the Jewish Rarity meme...)
 * Lilo~

Youtube Memes

 * Setting clips of MLP: FiM to audio of other things, the more Hot Blooded or macho the better: Ponycraft 2, The Elder Scrolls VI: Equestria, Call Of Cutie: Blank Ops, Pony Effect 2, (surely inevitably) 300 Ponies, Friendship Is Magic At World's End, The Rainbow Knight, Lord of the Ponies, Van Sparkle, Inglourious Ponies, P for Pinketta, Pony Rangers Zeo, Space Marene, Twilight Sparkle is Still Alive, My Little Eve: Spaceships are Magic, Fallout: New Canterlot, Pony 2 Assasins of Kings, Fluttershy Island, Soar, KILL SPIKE Vol 1, Tengen Toppa Pony Lagann, Spike Fights The Power, Puella Magi PONY Magica (Complete with Wonderbolt-flavored Morning Rescue), Meet the Ponies, Clash of the Ponies, When the Ponies Cry...
 * ...Doctor Pony's Sing Along Blog, Inside Dungeons and Dragons, Pony Jenkins, Ima let you finish Twilight, Pinkie & the Brain, The Trixige, Batmare Begins, Spike Nukem Forever, My Little Serenity, The Hunt for Twilit October, A Clockwork Pink - Equestrian Invitation, Pinkijou, The Rainbow Knight Rises, Mortal Pony Kombat: The Movie... (We're still waiting for My Little Nanoha: Befriending Is Magic, though.)
 * On a related note, redoing the openings to other works with a more... equestrian touch. Examples include Pony Bebop, My Little Baccano!, Pony Champloo, Samurai Applejack, Ponysona 3, Ponysona 4, Peach (Bleach), My Little One Piece, Outlaw Pony, and Blaz Brony.
 * Edgar Wright, the director for the Scott Pilgrim vs. the World film, posted Spike Pilgrim vs. The World, Trot Fuzz and Attack the Stable on his blog, and on the official Scott Pilgrim vs. The World Film and Attack the Block Facebook pages.
 * The official Top Gear blog actually made note of My Little Top Gear: Friendship is Ambitious But Rubbish.
 * WeLoveFine is a T-shirt company with lots of Pony based shirts. It had a contest going on for more new pony designs and one of the big images was Lyrical Twilight
 * The Pony Polka.
 * Even The Hub themselves have parodied a song with Ponified lyrics. This is an advert that airs on TV.
 * The fans have had a lot of fun with YouTube's automatic close-captioning generator. Among other things, Spike refuses to convert to Christianity in "Boast Busters" ("I am not going to believe the lord Jesus"), the river serpent from episode 2 is now named "Steven Magnet", and in "The Show Stoppers" Scootaloo wants to "sex that steve guy yes".
 * For the second season, the closed captions are responsible for naming the huge rock Rarity is tricked into believing it's a diamond "Dan". When the second episode actually had Rarity name the rock "Tom", the fanon agreed the rock to be called Tom Dan.
 * Season 2 ep 2 featured the bizarre auto-caption "Applejack got fucked".
 * There's actually an entire Tumblr blog dedicated to capturing the strange and hilarious captions that pop up.
 * Applejack and Rarity making spooky noises in "Look Before You Sleep". "Oooooooo!" Now with a music video.
 * Dubbing over a character with the voice of a past role of their actors, for example Twilight Sparkle as Princess Clara, Spike as Near, Pinkie singing the Misa song, Chief Thunderhooves complaining about ponies in METAL BOXES, and of course Discord as Q. Checking the Trivia page, this has become a Running Gag in the Hey Its That Voice section.
 * There's A Pony For That.
 * "Are you a spy!?"
 * Watching the episodes, dubbed (official or fandubbed) in different languages, in part or in whole. Watch Rarity WHIIINING in Japanese! Or "Flutterguy" in French! How about "Cupcakes" in Russian? (the song, not the gore-tastic fanfic) Or the main theme in Greek? Or Lyra Heartstrings speaking in the official Italian dub. Or "Giggle at the Ghostie" in Polish.
 * Speaking of different languages, the Italian opening theme is now known as "the anime intro theme" because of its length (over two minutes) and an Ear Worm-tastic original song that seems to cross language barriers and is appreciated by a lot of non-italian speakers.
 * Seductive Ponies
 * aeiou
 * QUESTIONMARKEXCLAMATIONPOINTQUESTIONMARKEXCLAMATIONPOINTQUESTIONMARKEXCLAMATIONPOINT...
 * Seemingly random videos on Youtube will occasionally get a high-voted comment to the effect of "ponies brought me here". Presumably the ponies must have surprisingly varied taste.
 * These videos will often have the comment "This video is now about ponies."
 * Somewhat related, but pick a Hey Ocean music video. Any Hey Ocean music video. You'll find tons of comments that pretty much amount to "Oh my gosh, it's Applejack/Rainbow Dash!"
 * It's now practically routine for someone to shout "Lookout! Incoming Bronies!" whenever a video contains a reference that the latest episode just made.
 * *cut to credits*
 * My Little Pony with censor bleeps.
 * Even the WWE isn't safe. Or at the very least C.M.PUNK isn't.
 * And neither is John Cena.
 * Brony/Target audience observations
 * [Character Name].mp4. Interestingly, all of the Mane Six have at least one moment where their eyes roll around in a daze, usually in response to a sudden shock or blow to the head. For some reason, these scenes have been looped and then set to Parov Stelar's "Catgroove".
 * When I'm X
 * And somewhat related, X Sauce.
 * Hay bacon strips, hay bacon strips, hay bacon strips.
 * Apple Bloom's "Buy some apples!" or Fluttershy's Flat Joy "Yay."
 * As expected, the ponies get in on Youtube Poop Music Videos. And as is expected of this fandom, they can get pretty elaborate.
 * Recently, it's also become quite popular to create separate accounts with the names of the characters and comment on pony videos as they would. They have a tendency to get top comment and often respond in-character.
 * How Could This Happen to Ponies?

Character Memes

 * It seems that if anypony makes a goofy face on the show, fans will pounce on it. Aside from Derpy Hooves and her Fish Eyes in the first episode, "Applebuck Season" brings us Rainbow Dash's gushing kissy-face (along with the accompanying phrase "So awesome!" and the emoticon "/)^3^(\") and Applejack's various loopy sleep-deprived faces, along with her look of disgust when she mishears the "wheat germ" part of Pinkie Pie's muffin recipe as "wheat worms", and "The Best Night Ever" brings "Flutterage".
 * As of Season 2, there has been an abundance of Uncanny Valley-ish expressions whenever a pony's head is looking directly at the camera. Ponibooru calls it the FAIC.
 * [X] IS BEST PONY
 * "Silly anon, that's not how you spell 'Pinkie Pie!'"
 * Another response is "You misspelled Fluttershy."
 * A few image macros pop up with some of the characters looking at the viewer asking for 'hugs'. Sometimes it can work, when done right.
 * Ponies. In. Socks.
 * Sweaters are the new socks.
 * Minty liked socks before they were cool.
 * "Congratulations, X! You're the new Y!"
 * CELESTIA, YOU MAGNIFICENT MARE! YOU READ MY LETTERS!
 * Good morning, [X]!
 * "Lock it under a rock, I'm sure it won't get out."
 * Many fans exaggerate this by making it her go-to solution for anything she doesn't like.
 * [PONY] found a [VEHICLE]
 * Colt versions.
 * At least one Youtuber has taken it a step further, not only voice acting as the colts, but changing their dialog to be more male-specific (for example, Elusive designs suits instead of dresses and wants to find a princess rather than a prince charming, to which viewer reception varies). Think The Gender-Flip of Haruhi Suzumiya, only with ponies.
 * And this itself has spawned a VA project that seeks to voice the Genderswapped Mane Six to use as a live reading for the story "On A Cross And Arrow" which popularized the Male Cast. The casting call can be found here, the accepted voice list can be found here, a demo of the accepted voices can be heard here and the first episode here.
 * This has started slowly to spread to the other background ponies/characters. For example, [[http://s3.amazonaws.com/kym-assets/photos/images/original/000/197/362/82184%20-
 * Spinning Turntable Ponies
 * The trend originated from a popular Vinyl Scratch gif that came from here (the links below the image provides a comic version, a template for the frames, the animated gif, a Youtube video, and a vectorized version).
 * [X] Cannon/Bazooka/Launcher
 * Party Cannon.
 * Wet manes.
 * Baby ponies.
 * Smooth Cheerilee / Spike Criminal
 * Fluffy ponies
 * Fluffle Puff
 * Fluffy pony drowns
 * Fluffy pony abuse
 * Now, let it be known that such stories has caused a bit of Creator Backlash from Mixermike662, the creator of Fluffle Puff and the man who popularized the Fluffy Ponies concept to begin with. And by "Creator Backlash", I mean they caused him to disown the fandom.
 * Beep beep. I'm a cloud.
 * "[CHARACTER NAME]licious"
 * Ponytails. think about it.

Twlight Sparkle
"(re: "Stare Master") "Dear Princess Celestia, I learned today that you do not f*ck with Fluttershy, ever. Your faithful student, Twilight Sparkle.""
 * Parodies of letters to Princess Celestia, involving Accidental Aesops or snarky comments relevant to the episode or the characters.


 * Twilight's attack of Power Incontinence during her flashback in "Cutie Mark Chronicles" has been compared, by various fans, to Dr. Manhattan, Dark Phoenix, the Protoss Archon, the Avatar State, and/or the Quickening.
 * The image from "Winter Wrap Up" of Twilight Sparkle hiding in a tree from snakes led to photoshopping Twilight hanging onto... pretty much anything. It's adorable.
 * Twiworm.
 * Twilight is a lion.
 * Twilight's speech in "Applebuck Season" getting interrupted inspired a lot of comparisons to Kanye West at the Video Music Awards. "Yo, Twilight, I'm really happy for you, and I'ma let you finish, but Applejack is the best pony of all time!"
 * Oh God, Twilight's about to miss a deadline! RUN!
 * "Hi, giirrllss!"
 * The face she made immediately before also gave rise to a lot of exploitable images. Not that the episode isn't already full of weird faces otherwise.
 * Twilight Snapple/Twilight Psycho
 * Pedopony.
 * My Little Pet Twilight Sparkle
 * Twilight Benes.
 * Twilightlicious
 * The saga continues as the voice actress and her followers attempt to make "Twilightlicious" trending on Twitter.
 * Given the reactions (both ways) from her Twitters (typically, stating something along the lines of "Here's a picture of me naked", attached to a tasteful photo of one of the clothes-less characters she voices), Tara's even called out these acts as Twolling.
 * The Merch now includes an official Twilightlicious T-shirt.
 * The teaser clip for "It's About Time", which featured a time-traveling Twilight wearing a tattered jumpsuit and eyepatch with a disheveled mane, has inspired a LOT of crossovers with various After the End or Bad Future works such as Terminator and Escape From New York.
 * Also with Metal Gear Solid, as she looks uncannily similar to Naked Snake.
 * Recognition of Twilight Sparkle's voice actress in the video game Lollipop Chainsaw led to numerous people referencing her in Youtube comments and fanart such as this one depicting her as the main character.
 * Twilight is now a  inspired by this scene of   using Twilight   machine gun.
 * Sweatervest
 * The image of Filly Twilight looking up from a book to her brother from the "BBBFF" song has sparked alot of pictures such as this

Applejack

 * "Liarjack"
 * Who's a Silly Pony? Who is, you is, Applejack!
 * In The Return Of Harmony: Part II, the shot of a smug Applejack bringing up Rarity's brief fling with "Tom" has been used by fans for various clever one-liners in image macros for different ways to one-up Rarity.
 * A minor, but interesting one: fans asking, "What if she decided to embrace sophistication when staying with the Oranges in Manehattan?" The result: Orangejack.
 * Applejack's Episode.
 * And then the episode was remembered not for Applejack, but for a certain fan favorite background character appearing throughout the opener, and actually talking. At least the following episode mostly focused on AJ, though in the context of her family and, again, being partially upstaged by the characters of the week.
 * "Forget you, I can eat ALL these apples!"
 * Appletroll

Pinkie Pie
"Chancellor Puddinghead: I am just about to be brilliant!"
 * Everything about Pinkie Pie. Everything.
 * "...and then I said 'Oatmeal? Are you crazy?'"
 * Pinkie Pie is everywhere.
 * FOREVER!
 * NOPONY BREAKS A PINKIE PROMISE!!!!
 * "And that's how Equestria was made!"
 * Pinkie's "Parasprite Polka" from "Swarm of the Century" is gaining more and more fame.
 * Cupcakes
 * IT'S BEEN ANIMATED.
 * TWICE.
 * Thrice, now from one of Hasbro's animators!
 * Psycho Pinkie is usually referred to as Pinkamena, if not her full name.
 * Cupcakes also seems to be a term for when Pinkie Pie gets furious, in a tamer use of it.
 * Francis Pie hates X.
 * Chocolate rain.
 * Pinkie moves away from the mic to break the fourth wall.
 * Here is a ponified version.
 * Pinkie Pool.
 * Chimicherries? Cherrychangas? Ooo! Chimicherrychangas!
 * Many of Pinkie's lines as Chancellor Puddinghead have become quite prominent, but one in particular stands out, helped by the adorably ridiculous smile she makes while saying it:


 * Doomie

Rainbow Dash

 * X needs to be about/is now 20% cooler.
 * TEN. SECONDS. FLAT.
 * LIVING THE DREAM!
 * Wingboners.
 * Often used in conjunction with the infamous POMF =3 meme as the sound effect for said.
 * Rainbow Dash's "So... awesome!" face now has an emoticon: /)^3^(\
 * Hate detected. Fire the Orbital Friendship Beam.
 * Atomic Rainboom
 * RAINBOW DASH ALWAYS DRESSES IN STYLE.
 * Rainbow Dash has balsa-wood wings.
 * Exactly how canon this is has been zig-zagging wildly during Season 2. At first her "Atomic Rainboom" scene (see above) essentially nullified all of them. Later during "May the Best Pet Win!", Dash gets the tip of one wing pinned under a boulder and later has to have it bandaged up after being freed. This either gave the fics some credibility again, or killed them off for good, depending on how you look at it (her wings aren't immune to damage, but she only needed a bandage after a boulder fell on one of them). In "Read it and Weep," she does in fact break a wing, giving the fics credibility again, but again she walks it off in under a week, and while she certainly wasn't happy about the incident she was more grumpy than "traumatized".
 * Rainbow Dash dyes her mane
 * Even a fanfic was written about it.
 * A second fanfic followed, though it's not just Dash's natural color that's being hidden...
 * Fans are trying to make a meme out of Rainbow's face in "May the Best Pet Win!" I mean just look at her grin!
 * It also overlaps with another meme: "I like turtles.".
 * Rainbow Dash unmasking the Mysterious Mare Do Well, finding unexpected results, and reacting somehow (almost identical to the Mass Effect gag with Shepard removing Tali's mask).
 * Rainbow Dash plus sunglasses (three times through the first 8 episodes of season 2, as well as in the Fashion Style Rainbow Dash toy, several licensed shirts, and the fanimation Epic Cupcake Time) equals numerous "DEAL WITH IT" memes.
 * Ninja Dash
 * What's Rainbow Reading?
 * Rainbow Dash is a lesbian.
 * Ropes.
 * CRUSH! KILL! DESTROY! SWAG!

Fluttershy

 * The Stare..
 * YOU'RE GOING TO LOVE ME!
 * Replacing the CSI: Miami "YEEAAAAAHH!" with Fluttershy's "Yay" from the Cold Open of "Sonic Rainboom".
 * Fluttertree.
 * In the episode "Green isn't Your Color", a shot of a magazine cover featuring a mopey-looking Fluttershy with black streaks in her hair inspired a brief burst of "Emoshy" art.
 * Fluttershy is very loud.
 * Tying into that, Fluttershy as the Dovahkin is incredibly common.
 * Alternatively, she's violent.
 * Fluttershy is weak and helpless.
 * Fightershy / Flutterninja / Flutterzangief.
 * Fluttershy's Hidden Depths.
 * Fluttershy crying over Philomena's Disney Death in "A Bird in the Hoof" inspired a string of pics in which she is seen watching a sad or touching scene (like the death of Bambi's mother, the death of Aerith, or the ending of Toy Story 3). A less popular version is where she actually smiles, basically watching anything to make her happy instead (or for those with a cruel sense of humor, something that starts out looking innocent, like the movie adaptation of Watership Down or an episode of Happy Tree Friends).
 * Later expanded to manipulated images depicting any character reacting differently to anything, such as Twilight enjoying an educational program like Bill Nye the Science Guy, Applejack being disgusted by a B-movie or reality TV, Rainbow Dash watching an action movie, Spike watching Anime/Sentai/ giant robot or monster shows, or Derpy Hooves watching something downright surreal.
 * There briefly existed a variant with Pinkie Pie having phone calls with other characters, such as Jay Sherman, Niko Bellic or Captain Picard.
 * Flutterjuice/Juiceboxshy.
 * Hey hey hey, stay out of my shed!
 * Fluttermat
 * Hootershy/Flutterack
 * Related to the above, Fluttersweater
 * Futashy
 * Fluttershy is an honorary Japanese.

Rarity

 * Dumb Rock!
 * No one must ever know that I am part marshmallow!
 * Fridge Brilliance: Their whole family is made of marshmallows! The most common colors for marshmallows are white, followed by pink. Guess what colors the parents are? White and Pink.
 * THIIIIIS IIIIIIS WHIIIIINIIIIINNG!
 * Rariquest
 * Rarity x Tom OTP!
 * Prior to part two, the boulder was dubbed "Dan" by fans due to Youtube captions, the same way Steven Magnet was named. When part two aired and Rarity named him Tom, people compromised and decided his name was Tom Dan, and made him a Memetic Badass for good measure.
 * "Look Out! Here Comes Tom!"
 *  is the... WORST... POSSIBLE... THING! 
 * "I'll show you something worthy of Canterlot!"
 * Rarity is Jewish.
 * Rarity's newspaper reaction.

Spike

 * Tailboner.
 * Pictures of Spike using his tail for digging from "A Dog And Pony Show" with the caption "I have the weirdest boner right now."
 * Spike is quickly becoming identified as a stoner.
 * Lame Pickup Line Spike.
 * EPIC SAX SPIKE!
 * Congratulations, Spike! You're the new Rainbow Dash!
 * "That won't end well..."
 * Pega-Spike
 * And then Spike died.
 * Spike is the new main character.
 * SPIKE WANT!
 * Run! It's Spikezilla!

The Cutie Mark Crusaders

 * Photoshopping fake cutie marks onto the Cutie Mark Crusaders. (Bonus points if it's the cutie marks belonging to the previous generation versions of the Crusaders.)
 * The Sex Pit
 * Crusader 4koma/Reaction Crusaders [[hottip:Explanation:Also from Hearts and Hooves Day, the Crusader's faces when they're hiding in a bush [[http://img.ponibooru.org/_images/31a77fcb71dfde351154b541be329923/130372%20-

Apple Bloom

 * ONE. DAY.
 * Applecopter.
 * "My Sister's Speaking [X!]"
 * Gangsta Bloom
 * Apple Dictionary
 * Bunny Bloom

Scootaloo

 * Scootabuse
 * Scootalove
 * Scootachicken
 * Pinkie Pie dressing up as a chicken for Nightmare Night spawned a few more jokes about this.
 * Scootadodo

Sweetie Belle

 * Sweetieabuse.
 * Sweetie Poo.
 * Sweetie Derelle.
 * Sweetie Dictionary
 * Dumb Fabric!
 * "I, uh, really like her mane..." in response to a fan's OC pony (most of which aren't really that great, due to Sturgeon's Law). The quote comes from Sweetie Belle's original reaction in being forcefully offered a raggedy old doll named "Smarty Pants" by a crazy Twilight.
 * Has since expanded to a response to just about anything.
 * It's becoming popular to post various images inside Sweetie Belle's thought bubble in "Sisterhooves Social".
 * Sweetie Slide/Scootie Belle
 * Sweetie Bot
 * "OH COME ON!"

The Princesses

 * BLEEEEH ALFALFA MONSTER
 * Princess Cadence is X

Celestia

 * Princess Trollestia
 * TO THE MOON!
 * Taken Up to Eleven in the fanimation Friendship Is Magic Bitch, which also spawned a few more memes:
 * "Do you like bananas? So, you're a bitch that likes bananas? Well, that's great. Cause you 'bout to GO bananas! On the MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONAAAAAAAA! Be-YETCH!"
 * There's also a variant which involves being "banished to season 2".
 * Princess Molestia
 * "No one mare should have all that power!"

Luna

 * "The fun has been doubled!"
 * Ha ha! The butt fun has been doubled!
 * Luna/Abacus OTP.
 * On September 29, 2011, a leaked picture of an unfinished scene from the episode "Luna Eclipsed", the one with the return of Princess Luna, showed Luna with a sinister grin on her face and a cloak. This single picture caused some ponies to claim that Luna had joined The Dark Side and is now a Sith Lord.
 * Along the same lines, the leaked episode synopsis rekindled interest in the "Where My Woona!?" meme, seeing as she's finally making an appearance in the show proper since the whole Nightmare Moon incident.
 * "THIS IS THE TRADITIONAL ROYAL CANTERLOT VOICE!!!"
 * Others use Ye Olde Butcherede Englishe for the Traditional Royal Canterlot Voice (or combine both aspects).
 * PRINCESS CAPSLOCK/CANTERLOCK
 * Canon Luna is the best Luna.
 * Luna killed my fanfics!
 * Redo the fanon!
 * Trollestia did it!
 * Luna Ducreux
 * Luna Dance
 * Luna is friggen' useless.
 * Counterpoint: Luna PUNCH!
 * Gamer Luna.
 * It even has a Tumblr!

Cadence/Cadance

 * Just roll with it.

Others

 * "Who is responsible for subjecting our eyes to these... horrors?"
 * Sapphire Shores' reaction to Rarity's latest design in "A Dog and Pony Show" and Pinkie Pie's family having a smile fit in "The Cutie Mark Chronicles" have become parallels to the reaction guys in the fandom.
 * Soarin' loves pie
 * The Most Interesting Pony In The World

 * Faster, cheaper!
 * When you give a minotaur X
 * Daring Do cover arts
 * YEAH!
 * Peepingweight

 * Discord dancing on Twilight's head seems to have swiftly become one. (And now, people can make their own.) It didn't take long for a piece of fananimation showing the real Discord doing that dance, either.
 * DisQord.
 * Chocolate milk of glass
 * Exploding chocolate milk of glass/Combustible Chocolate Milk

Photo Finish

 * Photo Finish from "Green Isn't Your Color" is another Fountain of Memes. "It iz time to make... de magicks!"
 * Even her X is graceful!

Big Macintosh

 * "Eeyup".
 * Big Mac x Smarty Pants OTP!
 * Big Macintosh is a brony.
 * "Big Macintosh gets ALL the mares!"
 * This scene from Luna Eclipsed has only served to fuel the fire.
 * "is very gentle".
 * Serious Mac.

Background Pony Memes

 * Doctor Whoof/Whooves.
 * It also has a followup meme, involving splicing clips from the Doctor Who episode Day Of the Moon into clips of its show.
 * While most likely a coincidence, one of the background ponies during the party in "Sweet and Elite" looks suspiciously like the Eleventh Doctor.
 * A blue pony with a blonde mane from "The Best Night Ever", "Sweet and Elite", "MMMystery on the Friendship Express", and "A Canterlot Wedding - Part 2" looks like the Fifth Doctor.
 * He's speculated to be the Fifth Doctor, the Eleventh Doctor, or the Seventeenth Master.
 * "Sweet and Elite" also had Pokey Pierce appear with an hourglass cutie mark while wearing a red tailcoat and an ascot, making him look like the Third Doctor.
 * There's a blue pegasus with wavy black hair and that cutie mark in "Sonic Rainboom" who appears for a couple of seconds, rather appropriate as it resembles the equally briefly-appearing Eighth Doctor.
 * In "The Super Speedy Cider Squeezy 6000" Doctor Whooves turns the sand timer for the competition. In other words, even the writers acknowledge that he should be in control of time.
 * "Brushie brushie brushie"
 * In Pinchy We Trust. One Wat
 * There's a popular trend on YouTube where DJ Pon3's bobbing head animation is synchronized with some Electronic Music, making it look as if she's banging her head to the beat of the music.
 * Octavia adds her own spin to the trend by having her playing animation synchronized with a piece of Classical Music, making it look like she's playing the piece herself.
 * Bon Bon: Equestria's top voice actress.
 * "] [TOY NAME]" / "[TOY NAME] ]"
 * Examples of name combinations are Lyra Heartstrings (which has since become Ascended Fanon), Blues Noteworthy or Noteworthy Blues, Rose's full name being Roseluck and Berryshine "Berry" Punch.
 * One that happened afterwards is Trixie--who is named in the show--being officially given the surname Lulamoon in the fifth wave after the fourth wave infamously called her just Lulamoon.
 * Octo Octavia/Octotavia
 * Crackle is best dragon!
 * Background pony copies are actually changelings!

Derpy Hooves

 * Derpy Hooves.
 * Lauren Faust said in response "she can be Derpy if everyone likes", and she showed up as a delivery pony in "Feeling Pinkie Keen".
 * Derpy Hooves became canon in The Last Roundup, having a speaking role with and being called "Derpy" by Rainbow Dash. To say the fans were pleased would be quite the understatement.
 * Derpy got corrective eye surgery!
 * But apparently it didn't take.
 * "I emptied your fridge."
 * The animators did a Fandom Nod about this in the episode "Luna Eclipsed", this time involving an apple bobbing tub and a drain. Carrot Top is not amused as usual.
 * Ancient Muffins
 * Where's Derpy?
 * Derpy's plot is iron!
 * Derpy Shot First
 * "I just don't know what went wrong."
 * They changed her voice/eyes, now we shall rage.

 * Coke Pony

Merchandise Memes

 * PONY VERBS THE NOUN
 * Since there is a toy for it, a few fanarts depict Applejack with a pink pickup truck, always with a cardboard cutout of Twilight Sparkle in the truckbed.
 * Naturally, the memetic nature of the Cardboard Cutout made an Alan Wake crossover inevitable.
 * EHT'S TWALAHT SPORKLES BAHLEWN
 * "No one man should have all that pony!"
 * DAMN YOU, HABSRO!!
 * PRAISE HABSRO!!
 * The Doggie Doo Game.
 * Creepily enough, there was already a video mashing up the theme song and another ad for the same game four months prior to the episode.
 * "Fanon names are best names."
 * "Toy names are best names."
 * Some fans take a third option and combine the two, making one or the other a surname, a full name, or a nickname.
 * Hasbro has officially made it naming policy in the fifth wave of Blind Bags to combine the names for Lyra Heartstrings and Trixie Lulamoon. PRAISE BE TO HASBRO!!
 * Star Swirl the Not so Bearded
 * Comic shorts in magazines of various languages are a fountain of memes, mostly due to their questionable quality, for example reusing low-quality vectors.
