It's the device she used on Pinkie in the episode "Feeling Pinkie keen", or any other device in the grimdark fandom.
Also, won't be sorry for drawing fanart of my favourite AU.

Both Pinkamena and "Crazy Twilight" was Lauren's creations...i doubt now that Hasbro took over the show they will let her or the new executive producers to use any of them again

Um, I think you misunderstood something... MLP was Hasbro's from Season 1 on. Lauren left the team in Season 2, and we saw Pinkamena in Season 3 and "Lesson Zero"-Twi even in Season 4... ^^

Yeah, ikr Hasbro is the owner of the MLP franchise since G1...in the beginnings of the '80s...but when they started G4, Hasbro just had low expectations about how reviving it, then they saw Lauren free from CN chains and was given vastly "powers" over the decisions about the show, she was basically the Celestia of the production team, the "head" of the snake (in a good sense) But then, when MLP FIM got so many popularity, and the cash began to flow, and Hasbro saw Lauren wanting to make a show for both little children but with many adult references under the carpet, they kicked her in the production ladder from executive producer to a mere "creative consultant"...very very lame, they are only killing the show slowly. That's why we don't see so many good full episodes as before, yeah, the fandom manage still to get the best of the show via fanfic/fanart/comics/comments/jokes/videos/etc, but it's like a dynamite with a fuse...eventually the fuse will run out of length...
Pinkamena in season 3 and Crazy Twi in season 4? I don't remember that, i remember some "references" like some little gags with Pinkie with her flat hair, Twilight getting her nerves off, and the such, but not much than that...we never saw again the "original" versions, which was more a "mares near to be transformed in serial killers" instead some small gags about it...Pinkamena and Crazy Twi first appearances also took their entire correspondent episodes as the center of the story, something great since you see how the both of them go down into madness slowly and why. Perhaps I'm wrong, feel free to refresh my memory n.n

Umm... like... you have a very pessimistic view on things.
Lauren was the creator of the characters and revived the former MLP, but she decided to go because she wanted to work on her own projects, like the Galaxy Girls and the Superhero Series she has currently worked on. Now she works on a film called "Medusa" and I haven't heard she regrets it.
"That's why we don't see so many good full episodes as before." I object.
The only two episodes Lauren has ever written were the first two. And they were full of plotholes. Don't get me wrong, I loved them, but some things just didn't end up, like AJ being honest in that cliff scene.
And the newer episodes are incredible - some are, in my opinion, even too good. They are too complex. There's too much, that's why many people miss the older, easier episodes.
And both the Pinkamena and the Crazy Twi episodes were written by Meghan McCarthy. Who is, in fact, the headwriter of MLP now.
And she also wrote the Chrysalis Arc.
In Magical Mystery Cure we had Pinkamena as long as in "Party of One" and Twilight had an appearance in the episode where Rarity gets all crazy with Spike's book. (Don't remember the name right now.)
If you miss that "crazy" and "creepy" factor, I think we had a lot of that in Sweetie Belle toils and the Flutterbat episode was pretty dark, too.

I don't see myself as a pessimist, I prefer to be realistic and just don't look to the other side so i crash directly into a wall in front of me whenever i don't expect it. In fact, if you speak with most grow-up bronies/pegasis which know how the animation business run, they will also give you a bad perspective and grim future about the future of MLP series...ofc all of those (mine included) are just opinions and not facts, but when Hasbro pulls the strings, bad things generally happens
I have seen other Lauren's works like Super Best Friends Forever, but you can heavily see the MLP influence over it (Batgirl is basically a Pinkie clone...never saw a Batgirl in a so toon style btw xD) I think Lauren regrets about Hasbro decision, i would have to Google a little for you, but in the past when she was demoted she clearly stated in her social network accounts and even in some interviews how that infuriated her (I think she felt like she was used by Hasbro to give a good starting kick to the show and then kick her and use all her main ideas...). Perhaps now years latter she got along with it since the steam went off (still that didn't prevent her from saying a lot of bad things about the EG movies and Flash Sentry xD)
I have to disagree with you about the "new vs old" episodes thing, as a matter of tastes of course. Yes, Lauren isn't basically a writer, she is more a whole "thinking tank" by herself, she creates concepts and ideas, and need writers to glue all of them together. But when you cut the head of the snake (as i said before) you have a dying snake zig-zagging around aimless until it dies or fall from a cliff. I won't deny some of the new episodes are good, in fact, the battle between Twilight vs Tirek in its first round was something unexpected violent Dragon Ball Z style for a kids show (I still don't know how the writers managed to make it pass under Hasbro's radar...), and i was happy to finally see a battle now filled with rainbow attacks against demons and with more action instead, but when i sum the first two seasons vs the two latter ones (specially the fourth) i feel honestly disappointed...it's like i see a repetitive show now
Perhaps McCarthy wrote the episodes with both the original Pinkamena and "Crazy Twi", but those two are Lauren creations in the concept and in the sketchboard. She already said that by herself. Meghan may be the headwriter now, but she is under heavy Hasbro supervision. Take the Chrysalis arc you put as an example...IMHO, Queen Chrysalis is one of the best antagonists ever, but also the biggest waste of opportunities after her defeat since we never saw her again (unless you consider the IDW's comics cannon...) and believe me she can be a very big and great villain, she is more malicious than other villains in the show (also the only female IIRC and if you don't count Nightmare Moon/Trixie/Sunset which are more "fillers" villains), i see her as a modern version of old Disney movies female antagonists, with a thick aura of evil around her...she is not so cliche like King Sombra or Tirek. Also, McCarthy work in EG movies (even if this was commissioned by Hasbro just for selling more dolls and merchandise) makes me rethink again about her abilities as a writer since both the movies was "meh" except for some specific "pony to human" gags and some new characters
My whole point is, we will probably don't see again more "dark" (or crazy/creepy as you said) things in MLP from now...I still remember the old Halloween special, which was, in its own way, creepy enough for MLP
I checked your references for Pinkamena/Crazy Twi in the last 2 seasons (thanks for refreshing my memory ^^) and even rewatched the two full episodes, but as i thought both cases are not what i was suggesting.
The "Magical Mystery Cure" had a "Pinkamena" which is actually just like the old non-cutie mark Pinkie from when she was a filly (from when she told her story to the CMC) just sad and with some anger issues (like in the beginning of season two with Discord's "grey"spell) but she is not by any mean the "what happen when you take the hope of fun for real to Pinkie" which turns her in a homicidal maniac (with her characteristic eyes rolling outside and having several and constant nervous tics with her mouth like she is going to pull a knife and kill someone one second to another)
About the episode you was wandering, it's "Inspiration Manifestation", and unless you confused it with another season 4 episode, the only crazy fact i see about Twilight is at the end of the episode, in which she gets home and blame Spike for all the disasters Rarity made all over PonyVille with the cursed spell book...actually she isn't even crazy, she is just a little angry, you can see her mane in bad conditions after having to undo all the disasters and making some funny faces at the end, but that's all. The "Crazy Twi" from Lesson Zero was similar somehow to Pinkamena: They both shared the eyes with little iris/pupils, with them directed to the sides, and a crazy continual smile in the case of Twi (Pinkamena got the tics instead) THOSE are the original ones i always talk about
I really think we will not see that again ever, is like with Derpy, yes, Hasbro yielded against all the fandom together ramming them like a big bull (also when they saw the money from Derpy's merchandise...), and we can see her more and more in the show lately, was i doubt she will ever speak again, or be shown doing heavy stupid gags like when she was working in a house moving job and drop a lot of things over Twi's head in a Looney Toons style, when she ruined the apple barrel in the Halloween special, or when she did her "infamy" first appearance with a speaking role
Flutterbat didn't scare me a bit (is Flutter after all), and Sweetie Bell less since she is so cute for me i could just eat her (she is one of my favorite characters) Yeah, the CMC do some dangerous and stupid funny adventures from time to time, but we already know everything is going to be fine quickly at the end. So again, this is just my opinion about the present and possible future of MLP and what i would like to see on it, if you are happy about the new episodes and see them as more complex and entertained, I'm glad also for you, but i just hope some of the writers don't give up and remember the old "spirit" of the show for those like me which miss Lauren's ideas in action

Well, I think you don't see my point.
You said Lauren did the concepts and the writers glued the characters together. Well, they still do that. If you only see Lauren as the "character designer", her job is done. What would be different if she was still there?
You also sounded like you had friends in animation and know a lot personal things about Lauren Faust. Honestly, I don't. I just know what I heard from her da-posts, from EqD and a few twitter posts.
That her shows are "influenced by MLP"... no, they are influenced by Lauren. Like Powerpuff Girls was, and a lot more shows.
Also, Equestria Girls is for selling dolls like MLP was originally made for selling toys. But EG doesn't influence MLP, so this can't count as anything.
"They threw Chrysalis potential away" - They brought Discord back in Season 3. You said you didn't like Season 3 and Season 4 as much.
But they brought back an old villain, you seem to ignore Discord as a whole in your argumentation.
Pinkamena: We won't see her again. We can't see "your" Pinkamena (lost all her hope) because of character developement. If you watched the Pinkie Pride episode closely you can see she overcame her problems- I could explain this further but it would just take too long, sorry.
And for Twilight: I have hope we'll see her again as she struggles with her princess stuff.
I didn't mean Sweetie Belle, I meant Rarity in that episode. "For whom the Sweetie Belle toils" is the episodes name - Rarity (and Fluttershy) are the creepy ones there. So we don't see creepy Pinkie and Twi, but Rarity, and maybe the others too, which I really don't mind.
I don't want to be offensive, but as I see it you are just really pessimistic about it. I know that there are a few episodes that aren't as good in Season 3 and 4. But the moment I talk about them with friends or rewatch them I see that they are indeed good.
MLP changed, yes, but you can't blame them for that, they try out new writers, try out how much they want to coop with fans, etc.
If you had an example for a bad episode or something bad in general, I'd like to hear it. (and we can discuss it further)
Because if "It isn't creepy anymore" the only reason... Well we had "Pinkamena" in S1, Crazy Twi in S2 and Crazy Rarity in S4- I think we'll see more in S5.
((btw; As long as Lauren's characters are involved, these are Lauren's ideas "in action" technically...just sayin'.^^))

Thanks.
I'm not sure about what she would use that "funny hat" for.
And at this point, I'm too afraid to ask. :-P

To her,bad is good, and good is bad. If I was there, I would tell her that I would stay together with her forever to make her happy. Even if it means that I have to sleep with one eye open.

Speaking of the butterfly effect, you ever wonder if crazy Twilight is a female teenage pony version of Jeff Goldblum's character from Jurassic Park, and she'll eventually become an adulterous rambling dipshit who keeps rambling about God's domain?
