Line 12:
* [[Fridge Horror]]: After Pinkie snaps, she invents a bunch of new friends to attend Gummy's after birthday party, one of which is a pile of rocks named Rocky. When Rainbow Dash arrives at her house, she knocks over said pile of rocks, essentially '''killing Rocky'''.
** Who represented Rainbow Dash
* [[Harsher in Hindsight]]: A rather infamous ''FiM'' fanfic [[Cupcakes
** It should be noted that [[Word of God]] has said that all the Season 1 episodes were [[Animation Lead Time|written before the pilot even aired]]. Still a creepy coincidence though.
** Here's one not "Cupcakes" related: At the time, Pinkie's breakdown was one of the scariest cases of a mane character going crazy in the series. [[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic
* [[Idiot Plot]]: The episode hinges on Pinkie Pie forgetting her birthday, which is understandable, because she's [[Cloudcuckoolander|Pinkie Pie]]. To a lesser extent, there's also the fact that a surprise party was being thrown in her honor with nobody running interference, nor any other countermeasures to deal with the fact that Pinkie Pie could catch them setting up (even when they had to pick up a cake at her home/place of employment).
** And for some reason, "don't ruin the surprise" was far more important to the other ponies than the fact that their surprise-ee was becoming increasingly distressed and angry over their furtiveness.
Line 21:
** Not to mention her breakdown near the end. If Rainbow hadn't arrived when she did... I don't know. *breaks into tears* I don't even want to think about it!
** You don't need to deplore the others' actions to feel sorry for Pinkie. This series is perfectly capable of showing complex enough interactions that they lead into conflict without [[Comedic Sociopathy|having anyone suddenly become nastier for no reason.]] But just because it's mostly happening in her head doesn't make it any less serious for her.
