* In {{Watchmen}}, Dan tells the story of this masochist who used to follow the Masks round pretending to be a supervillain in the hopes of getting beaten up, and how he tried it on Rorshach once and got thrown down an elevator shaft. Laurie says it's not funny, but she's struggling not to laugh.

** After Chief Wiggum 'kills' Homer's homicidal toupee in a Hallowe'en special:

** Olbermann did the same thing when Stewart skitted him.

* On a similar note, in a review of {{Highlander}} [[SoBadItsHorrible 2]]. [[TheSpoonyExperiment Spoony]] admitted that [=MacLeod=] and Ramirez simply getting into a car and ramming an armed barricade relying on their immortality to protect them from all the times they'll be shot is actually pretty clever. However, he also points out all the FridgeLogic that undermines this, the biggest ones include the fact that they ''put the LoveInterest in the trunk of said car'', and that the BigBad didn't simply tell the CorruptCorporateExecutive he's working with about the immortals and to cut their heads off.

** The NostalgiaCritic [[http://thatguywiththeglasses.com/videolinks/thatguywiththeglasses/nostalgia-critic/51-power-rangers-a-look-back does not like]] PowerRangers. He does almost say the trope verbatim, though, after a line that combines ArsonMurderAndJaywalking and ArsonMurderAndAdmiration.

'''NostalgiaCritic:''' I gotta admit, that's kinda funny.

* ''LoveActually'' has this in two deleted scenes. Emma Watson's character is called into a parent-teacher conference because her son drew, for his greatest wish, a picture of a world where people's farts are clearly visible. Emma Watson excuses herself with her son and seems about to lay into him before she announces that it was "blood brilliant" and takes him off for ice cream. A later scene shows the teacher with her lover, commenting that it took her half an hour before she realized they weren't coming back to which her lover comments that the idea was actually pretty funny and they both start laughing.

** And the page quote comes from {{The Nostalgia Chick}}'s review of ''SpiceWorld'', which she was panning, until {{Meat Loaf}}'s character reacts to being asked to unplug the multiple toilets on the [[GirlGroup The Spice Girls']] tour bus by saying "Look, I love these girls. And I would do anything for them. But I won't do that."
