My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic/Funny: Difference between revisions

* Gilda lets out [[Fire-Breathing Diner|the usual cartoon flame breath]] from the prank lemon wafers set out.... which Pinkie Pie promptly uses to toast a marshmallow.

** Even better when you know she actually wasn't expecting it, but somehow still had the marshmallow ready.

* After Pinkie Pie pranks Rainbow Dash with the telescope, we zoom out to Fluttershy investigating the fake turtle they were using for ''her'' prank and poking at it.

 

{{quote| '''Rarity''': Best of 71?}}

* Fluttershy literally being scared of her own shadow.

* As genuinely awesome as that moment was, the sight of a pegasus ''marching up the snout of a dragon and glaring into an eye roughly as big as she is while giving it a piece of her mind'' is inherently giggle-worthy.

* During Rarity's part of the [[Lock and Load Montage]], she puts on an army helmet... before checking herself out in the mirror, deciding against it, and putting on a sun hat with the same camouflage pattern as the helmet.

{{quote| '''Twilight Sparkle:''' "Oh, what would a brave pony like Rainbow Dash do?" *beat* "[[Leeroy Jenkins|CHAAARGE!!!]]"}}

* Twilight Sparkle's reaction after surviving the leap across the bog. She hits a conveniently-placed cave, shakes her head a few times and does a silly grin while a *squeak* noise plays.

* At the very end of the episode, Spike is about to send off Twilight's letter to Princess Celestia when [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tawDboVaRvI CELESTIA] [[Memetic Mutation|OUT OF FUCKING NOWHERE!]]

{{quote| '''Spike:''' ..."twitchy tail"? Holy guacamole!}}

** ZE MAGICS!

* Struggling hard to keep from divulging either pony's secret, Twilight stuffs the entire contents of a fruit bowl into her mouth. It's a funny visual on its own, but what pushes it from "amusing" to "hilarious" is the way she glances around the room in a ''very'' forced attempt at casualness afterward, while the other two ponies spare her no more than a half-second's befuddled pause before continuing their conversation.

{{quote| '''Spike''': Hey, Pony Joe. Another donut.<br />

'''Pony Joe''': Don't you think you've had enough?<br />

 

----

* Everything involving [[Butt Monkey|the bellhop pony]].

* Rarity's [[Hurricane of Excuses]] while switching between the two parties.

** "What croquet mallet?"

*** Particularly since she's holding it in her mouth and can barely talk intelligibly.

** AJ's deadpan response (complete with [[Badass Mustache|leaf mustache]]!) after laughing at the idea of ''Spike'' being the thief sells it.

{{quote| '''Applejack:''' [[Let's Get Dangerous|Twilight. Get my rope.]]}}

{{quote| '''Rainbow Dash:''' Put her down ''right now!''<br />

'''Fluttershy:''' If you wouldn't mind, that is...<br />

'''Rarity:''' When I get back, you're going to get it, Rainbow Dash. }}

** It hasn't been lost on the fandom that Rainbow Dash is scheduled to end up in the hospital [[My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic (Animation)/Recap/S2 E16 Read It and Weep|two episodes from now.]]

** The mailstallion getting the barn doors closed in his face by Twilight? Dickish. Mailstallion gets some cake anyways? Heartwarming AND funny, just cos it's Pinkie Pie.

* Fluttershy demonstrating the difference between being surprised and being startled.

* Daring Do dodging the traps in the temple, including ''ceiling alligators'' and one trap [[Noodle Incident|we don't see]], but which produces a number of amusing noises and leaves a number of arrows stuck through Daring Do's [[Nice Hat]].

* Daring Do going through all the same gestures as [[Indiana Jones]] preparing to steal the idol in ''[[Raiders of the Lost Ark (Film)|Raiders of the Lost Ark]]''... then just swiping it without trying to trick the counterweight system.

* The in-book villain Ahuizotl arrives on the scene all menacing... and speaks with Pinkie's voice (because Pinkie was just arriving to Dash's room).

* The [[No Kill Like Overkill|sheer overkill]] of the [[Death Trap]] Ahuizotl leaves for Daring Do. Spiked walls closing in, snakes, spiders, ''and'' quicksand?!

* ''Every'' catchphrase Iron Will does is deliciously hammy.

* When Fluttershy tries to get a cherry from a gruff stallion at a reduced price, she decides to take Rarity's advice and '''flirt''' with him!

* Iron Will's goat assistants behaving like real goats most of the time, including two blankly staring while one of them ''starts eating the other one's tie.''

** One of them also tries to eat Pinkie's tail.

'''Fluttershy''': Go back home and try again tomorrow?!<br />

'''Iron Will''': NO! When somepony tries to block, SHOW THEM THAT YOU ROOOOOCK! }}

** Like her argument with Iron Will:

{{quote| '''Iron Will''': Iron Will will delay for half a day, and no longer!<br />

* Pinkie seems to go through the entire episode having no real idea what Twilight is even worried about, and becomes convinced it's somehow about finding out what her birthday present will be.

* Twilight, completely seriously and sincerely deciding that [[Time Stands Still|stopping time]] is a viable solution to preventing the catastrophe after several previous attempts failed.

** Common fanon consensus is that he's laughing to avoid blowing his cover.

* A bit meta, but the very notion of a magical purple unicorn declaring something to be scientifically impossible is pretty hilarious.
