< Ask a Pony
Ask a Pony/YMMV
- Alternative Character Interpretation: All over the place! For starters, there are 15 currently active Twilight Sparkle blogs. Notably the blogs that are based on major characters like the Mane Six tend to focus on a particular personality or interpretation.
- Complete Monster: Pinkamina.
- The Master also deserves special mention, being responsible for several murders and at least one genocide. It's explicitly stated that his Anything That Moves behavior isn't for pleasure, he does it because he enjoys breaking people. If his use of a perception filter is anything to go by, he may even qualify as the pony equivalent of a Humanoid Abomination.
- Just in case you forgot what sort of animal The Master really is...
- ...A pony?

- Crazy Awesome: Surprise!
- Hot-Blooded Pinkie as well.
- Crowning Moment of Heartwarming: Surprisingly enough, from the mother of Grimdark blogs: Ask Pinkamina [dead link] Diane [dead link] Pie [dead link] .
- Crowning Music of Awesome: Ask Pia Ikea covering Jonathan Coulton's "Ikea", rewritten for ponies!
- Something must also be said for Discord's version of "Still Alive" from Statued Discord Replies.
- Draco in Leather Pants Despite being a complete Jerkass who's antics include beating Derpy to a pulp (which sent her to the hospital), sleeping with her nurse and her best friend just to spite her, and possibly being an alcoholic, Discord Whooves has both Miss Twilight Sparkle and Laura the Zony in love with him. And they're both aware of his actions. Though to be fair, this probably has more to do with the mods of both blogs being friends in real life with Discord Whoove's mod.
- Ensemble Darkhorse: Some of these blogs are a major reason why some characters from the show are this. Ask Ruby Pinch, Echo Fleetfoot, and Surprise are some prime examples. Much of their popularity and Fanon comes from them.
- Fan Service: The whole point of Ask a Bishonen Pony. Even lampshaded by the author.
ArtieDrawings:I assure lots of shirtless-bishonen fanservice. <3
- She fulfilled that promise by the way...and it's not just the bishies.
- Vinyl Scratch in Ask Human Vinyl and Derpy tends to wear some rather [dead link] skimpy [dead link] outfits. [dead link]
- Flanderization: Played for laughs in Ask Jappleack, in which Applejack's southern heritage is pushed Beyond the Impossible. In short, she goes from "hard-working cowgirl" to "sibling-beating Southern Baptist Nazi."
- Ho Yay: Many examples.
- Magnificent Bastard: The now retired Prince Blueblood blog, and how!
- Memetic Mutation:
- When Chubbie Pinkie Pie fired Chubbie Rainbow Dash out of a cannon, blogs everywhere started having Chubbie Rainbow Dash zoom past their blog's character in the middle of something. Then Bwobbyquest happened, and essentially knocked the meme for six.
- Misty the Wonderbolt's hoodie inspired a fair few reactions.
- Pictures wishing the mod of Filly Twilight a happy birthday dominated dashboards of tumblr users for days on end.
- Any time Lil-Miss-Rarity does more or less anything at all, a Mexican Wave of reactions springs up.
- Memetic Sex Goddess: JJ's Molestia, of course.
- Whereas Discord Whooves seems to be her Spear Counterpart in this regard. Though when you put them together, it's rather clear who the winner is...
- Even the MOD of Discord Whooves has been deemed this (as seen here [dead link] ) for being a (possible) bishonen, pansexual, and being very, very open about discussing sexual topics on his mod blog. The fact that he blurs out his face in every pic he posts makes him even more appealing to many.
- Nightmare Fuel:
- Pretty much any blog post with Pinkamena in it.
- Most Grimdark blogs, as a matter of fact.
- Ron the Death Eater: Lots of Grimdark versions of lovable characters from the show, like Pinkamena and Lil' Miss Rarity.
- Meanie Belle parodies this, as does Grimdark Big Mac.
- Squick: The Grimdark blogs tend to have tons of this.
- In Ask a Bishonen Pony, Dusk Shine says that he likes eating grass. This wouldn't be so bad if it weren't for the fact that he's a human in the blog.
- Tastes Like Diabetes: Ask Ruby Pinch, My Little Cubbies and Fluttershy & Pinkie Pie are some of the most well known "so adorable it hurts" blogs.
- Unfortunate Implications: Discorded Zecora, Played for Laughs.
- Ask Human Luna, for playing the "bisexuals are all promiscuous" stereotype completely straight.
- Quite a few people take issue with Ask Screw Loose for its...unflattering portrayal of the mentally ill.
