We've talked before about how this show has studiously stayed away from anything that might become a "catchphrase" by any standard definition. I think the "20% Cooler" line became one inside that relative vacuum- people needed something like that, and it filled the bill.

Sobana wrote:Yeah, it's not really a catchphrase but more like her diction. They also made a complication of how many times they say yes in the series but I doubt that is considered a catchphrase either.

Same thing with Rarity and "darling", in my opinion.

Fizzbuzz wrote:That was most likely because it was early S1. After all, I don't think we got an overt G3 reference (well, beyond stuff like Pinkie Pie and Rainbow Dash and a few others having their names and general appearances carried over G3) until thegag in TMPP.
