I recommend we use the Soldier line "Friendship is magic, maggot!" Because almost all of the classes that receive additional lines from this hat use a permutation of that phrase. Tele-viper (talk) 23:25, 29 October 2013 (PDT)
- Yeah, that would be great! I was going to say use "Friendship is stupid magic" but that isnt as positive about the friendship... ErnieTheGreatest (talk) 15:59, 30 October 2013 (PDT)
- Would it be at all appropriate to mention that this is clearly a reference to My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic? Or how the mane even slightly resembles Pinkie Pie's/Fluttershy's

- Unless the creator of the item says it is a reference go for it. Otherwise do not add it. Even if its by coincidence. Ashes (talk) 19:12, 30 October 2013 (PDT)
- The item creator isn't Valve so anything he says is not official. At least thats what I keep getting told. So unless Valve says it is, it isnt. A pony isnt always my little pony.ErnieTheGreatest (talk) 21:49, 30 October 2013 (PDT)
- Well, I'm just guessing, because of all of the "Friendship is magic" lines that come with the hat. Alright, I won't add it.
- SalaComMander (talk) 19:14, 30 October 2013 (PDT)
- Actually, if it does have lines like that, it is yet another reference. ErnieTheGreatest (talk) 21:49, 30 October 2013 (PDT)
