This is exactly what I thought. I know they don't actually read fanfics, so it wasn't intentional, but it was an awesome coincidence. |

I don't hate.
I just love Pipsqueak. |

#525 I can't think of anyone here that hates FO:E. It's Past sins everyone dislikes. |

The more people bring this stupid connection up, the more I think a lot of you don't know your basic English literature. |

To expand on that, it is a "Great Expectations" reference, you know, because he's Britsh. Honestly, people who actually think that the writer was referencing an overblown fanfic are delusional. |

I don't think they're referencing a fan fiction, I just find the coincidence hilarious, way to generalise, anon.
And I can't stand trying to read Dickens' novels, please forgive me for such an unforgiveable crime |

Oh no, I sure YOU know, but looking at the Equestrian Daily blog comments is just infuriating beyond belief. |

^Well duh, we're vaguely aware of that, but that doesn't stop the fans from imagining. It was an incidental line, which the FoE fans are jumping at the coincidence.
As I recall, the MLP animators are not allowed to read fanfictions at all. |

#692 I doubt that any one thinks it's a FoE reference. Every interview with the production staff make it clear that they don't (or can't) read fanfiction. It's just a cool coincidence.
And everyone knows that Pipsqueak is actually named after Pip from South Park, not some obscure old book. :) |

...Fallout Equestria is "some obscure old book" now? |

You know, it is entirely possible that "Little pip" is both a Charles Dickens reference and a bit of FOE fanservice. The last two episodes have tossed in a lot of polite waves to fanon, and while I doubt any of the MLP: FiM staff actually read Fallout: Equestria, it would be virtually impossible for them to know as much about brony fanon as they do without having run across mention of Littlepip. |

uuuhhhhh did anyone notice that the eyes are decidedly fuzzy/blurry in this? photoshopped methinks. |

^oh, YOU DON'T SAY? |
| Dark_Horst #589425 9 months ago |
also, you shouldn't rule out the possibility of a FoE reference entirely. yes, it is extremely unlikely. but not absolutely impossible. yes, the staff SAYS they are not ALLOWED to read fanfic... but who stands next to them 24 hours a day and enforces that? remember that hasbro/hub representatives officially keep saying they're not going forward to bronies with their stuff... now look at the last eps and tell me you believe that. |
