Line 6:
* [[Complete Monster]]: With Pinkie Pie, it's debatable, as she is murderous but deluded and not intentionally sadistic, since she genuinely thinks this is fun for her victims. {{spoiler|Apple Bloom}}, less so. On the one hoof, you could think that she may have been talked into the pony-cupcake making by Pinkie Pie, and that she wanted to get revenge on {{spoiler|Silver Spoon}}. On the other hoof, some sequels depict {{spoiler|how her special talent turns out to be being a professional murderer}}. For the point home, she is not deluded by insanity like Pinkie, and ''still'' enjoys every minute of it.
* [[Crossing the Line Twice]] / [[Refuge in Audacity]]: If your stomach is strong enough, this fanfic looks so over-the-top it’s pretty hillarious, especially when {{spoiler|Pinkie Pie starts making morbid jokes}}.
* [[Harsher in Hindsight]]: One episode of the actual show involves Pinkie Pie having a psychotic break and being in a room alone with Rainbow Dash.
** Naturally, this one ('Party of One') is relied on for the trailer.
** "Green Isn't Your Color" becomes...unsettling after reading this fanfic. The creepy stalkerish thing is bad enough, but she also threatens Twilight Sparkle by taking a bite out of an apple. And shortly afterwards we're treated to a closeup shot of cupcakes. Brrrr.
* [[High Octane Nightmare Fuel]]: It starts out quietly, but when the [[Gorn]] hits, it freaking ''[[Player Punch|hits]]''.
* [[Hilarious in Hindsight]]: Albeit moreso in a [[Gallows Humor]] sense, [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zKvSvvOwbTQ this video] was made two years before ''Cupcakes'' was ever written. People have seem to take notice in the comments.
** There's a Pony named Cupcake, who [[Meaningful Name|loves Cupcakes]], in the toy line. She's one of the older Ponies, if not the oldest to be in every generation.
*** Not to mention that Mrs. Cake's first name is "Cup"
** There's also [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zayZL2UK9HE this scene from 'Call of the Cutie'] where Applebloom warns Scootaloo not to eat a cupcake. It helps that the cupcake itself is the same color as Rainbow Dash.
** You know it's implied that Pinkie turned Luna into cupcakes? Well, even though she was pretending, we saw [[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic (Animation)/Recap/S2 E4/E04 Luna Eclipsed|how scared of her Pinkie could be]].
* [[Internet Backdraft]]: Just the simple mention of this fic in some parts of the fandom can cause enough bile to fill ten olympic-sized swimming pools. Bonus points if you say you like/dislike this fic for any reason.
* [[Magnum Opus Dissonance]]: of a sort. Sargesprinkles, the author, appreciates all the fanart, AU's, and general publicity, but would prefer some attention for his non-grimdark and more respectable works. Since his name is almost always associated with his infamous fanfic, it's not likely.
Line 24:
* [[Never Live It Down]]: It seems that Sargesprinkles will forever be associated with this fanfic
* [[Ron the Death Eater]]: Take a character who is not only a hero, but a nice character overall, though somewhat bubbly, and make her the extreme opposite, though still technically who she is, just insane, and bam, you've got Pinkie in this fic.
* [[Seinfeld Is Unfunny]]: [http://bronies.memebase.com/2011/11/07/my-little-pony-friendship-is-magic-brony-rainbow-factory-album-art/comment-page-1/#comment-108481 Has actually been evoked] when comparing this fic to later grimdark fics.
* [[Squick]]: All of it, but most DEFINITELY {{spoiler|The part where Pinkie Pie SQUEEZES RAINBOW DASH'S INTESTINES TO GET RID OF THE FECAL MATTER INSIDE THEM!!!. Oh and Rainbow also pisses herself twice.}}
** How could you mention that without mentioning the fact that Pinkie {{spoiler|FLOSSES HER OWN TEETH with said intestines!?}}
