Particular tropes or cliches you find funny or just plain dumb?

Basically, title.

Personally I always found the common abuse trope of Fluffies just tearing apart like they’re made out of paper tissue pretty funny.

Lots of abuse content where someone just grabs a fluffy and separates their legs like they’re ripping a piece of paper.

I dunno, it amuses me, because it works too. Really reinforces the idea of Fluffies being made as disposable and replaceable toys.

I like their innate swear filters and I like the creative funny and cute things people do with that

As for dislikes I don’t like it when negroes or illegals are involved

I find it interesting when Fluffies are used for their original purpose: to be toys. Like stories showing fluffies used as disposable decorations, or given to kids as a cheap toy, or used as accessories. It’s interesting to see how they would be used in a capitalist way

I really enjoy it when a fluffy has to face the reality of the world, such as when things like hugs or asking nicely don’t do anything and they get confused by it. I really like how interactions can happen when this happens, and the fluffy’s have to face a small existential crisis.

On the other hand, I don’t really like intelligent fluffys or fluffys making plans. Imo they shouldn’t be smart enough to do things like escape complicated cages or play dead. Maybe they can do one or two step processes, but having things like smart fluffys working with people isn’t really my thing.

You know, yeah, surprisingly I think tis not an angle that a lot of people go with, funnily enough.

Same, I don’t like the idea of smart fluffies. I like my fluffies dumb. They’re stupid and live in the moment.

What I do like is the idea of just certain behaviors being sort of prepackaged on fluffies. Asking for hugs, wanting to dance and sing, making “good poopies” or stuff like them immediately going into “Wub ou!” Mode as soon as they’re given a name, even if moments prior they were in horrible agony. I feel those are traits they would’ve baked into them for their role as toys.

I like derping, and I like the sort of bizarro strategies, toys, and scenarios people (in-universe) think up to manage, teach, or take care of fluffies. I also really like block-shaped fluffies, the two times they’ve ever been done.

Something I don’t dig are like, “abuse worlds”; settings or scenarios where fluffmarts just outright sell abuse toys or it’s truly seen as no big deal to smash these things on public property or where they don’t even have the legal protections of property. It’s not an issue of cruelty moreso than suspension of disbelief; if it’s done cartoonily enough I can buy the clear doylist intent, but it’s otherwise hard to swallow the idea that in a “realistic” or “semi-realistic” scenario or setting that people wouldn’t generally find the idea of tormenting talking toddler-animals to be pretty upsetting or vile.

in regards to abuse, i’ve yet to see someone draw/describe that one skinning animation from red dead 2 (link for context) done to a fluffy. it’s always something very methodical, surgical that’s done to them. rarely do you ever see someone brute force a fluffy into pink mist.

my least favorite trope has got to be litter pals. i understand the concept of “this thing is disposable and doesn’t mean much if it has a crappy color” but having a fluffy whose sole purpose is to lick another’s asshole is downright retarded and kinda ties into what someone else said about marketed abuse and the suspension of disbelief. why would you advertise a fluffy whose only purpose in this world is to eat shit on a schedule.

maybe it’s my innate disgust of bodily waste, human or otherwise, that makes me repulsed by this concept and makes me drop any sort of enjoyment when a writer leans too much into fluffies shitting and/or eating shit.

I like when fluffies drown because they looked up while it was raining

Lol

I like when fluffies have a deadline for execution at breeders and fluffmarts.

The brown = bad thing is a little overdone and while I enjoy the comedic side of how much fluffies shit I think the poopeating stuff is a poorly disguised fetish.

I think mares screeching “BIGGEST POOPIES” when they give birth is retarded. It seems to happen in so many stories even when the mares know exactly what’s happening, they know it isn’t shit. Where did that stupid idea start? And like, yes, I know it’s because they’re supposed to be stupid, but if it’s a programmed phrase… it’s fuckin retarded

Yeah, the coprophagy is a little overdone and vile, BUT the bloater exploder thing amuses me as do other forms of randumb abuse involving their absurd defecation issues. I’ve contrived an explanation that the volume of fluffy pony shits is due to expansion of a network of proteins not dissimilar to hagfish slime.

Thought of a scenario involving hooking a pillowed mare up to her chirpy babbehs via some anus-to-anus tubing so when she shits it causes them to explode in various forms of structural failure that she can hear their screeching. Simple poop-splosion, head exploding off in a geyser of poo, shooting out trailing their intestines like a cork-popgun or ballooning up into a poop-filled ball of misery that pops when squeezed…

It’s a bit much but I’ve been trying to find diversion from things IRL.

OMG same! Like, it’s not even the same area, unless fluffies poop their babies out??

:big_caterpillow: :smug:

I can’t stand one dimensional fluffy abusers with no personality or explanation for their abuse other than garden variety sadism.

Kind of specific to amputation stories, but that one line that every fluffy seems to have programed into them when they’re in the middle of getting their legs chopped off and they try to reason with their abuse with the logic that they “nee weggies fow wun an’ pway”. Actually, now that I think about it, I really enjoy a lot of the classic fluffspeak soundbites, like the panicked “wawa am ba’ fow fwuffies”, or the monologue of “pweese weggies, nee’ wun way” when deciding they need to escape a bad situation, or the distressed “Onwy wittwe babbeh” from either a mother or a foal, or the stern “Fwuffies am fow huggies an’ wub” when faced with an abuser, like it’ll change their prediciment. Those are all the ones I have from the top of my head, but yeah. Some people might think they’re overdone, but I find them all absolutely hilarious.

Yeah, fluffspeak is like, number one on my list of things I thoroughly enjoy with fluffies.

Happy fluffies, sad fluffies, suffering fluffies, I just want then babbling in their little broken speech.

“Nuu, Wawa am bad fow fwuffies!”

“Pwease no upsies, babbehs am too smaww!”

“New daddeh?”

“Fwuffy wuv dadeh and sketties!”
