To say nothing of them eating, their apparent ability to cry and get sick, Gypsy's inexplicable fixation with Richard Basehart, etc. [[MST3KMantra Remember the mantra...]]

* In one issue of Marvel's ''ComicBook/MachineMan'', the eponymous robotic hero is in his human guise of insurance investigator Aaron Stack at a company party. One of his co-workers spikes the punch, and Aaron drinks some -- and promptly ''gets drunk!'' Much later, this quirk of Machine Man's would be enshrined by ''Comicbook/{{Nextwave}}'', which gave him the CatchPhrase "My robot brain needs beer!"

* ''Franchise/{{Transformers}}'' frequently has instances of the Cybertronians performing humanlike actions for no discernable reason. The [[Website/TFWikiDotNet Transformers Wiki]] has [[http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Humanization a page of considerable size]] dealing with the matter, but as for specific examples:
** In one episode of ''WesternAnimation/TransformersAnimated'', Bumblebee starts panting heavily while trying to chase down someone with SuperSpeed powers despite saying in an earlier episode that he doesn't need to breathe.
** Starscream has a takedown animation in ''VideoGame/TransformersFallOfCybertron'' where he performs a GroinAttack, even though the target lacks any anatomy that should be affected by a kick to the crotch.

* Franchise/{{Transformers}} has this so often, and in so many different ways, that it has enough examples for [[http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Humanization an incredibly lengthy list]], with various instances of coughing and breathing being the most blatantly odd/difficult to explain away examples. Possibly justified in that some continuities are rather vague about whether Cybertronians are true robots or MechanicalLifeforms of some sort.

* ''Franchise/{{Transformers}}'' in all incarnations go back and forth on the scale of humanness constantly. They can survive in space but they can make breathing noises. They endure great damage and don't act like they're in any pain but other times they get hit in the face and show about as much pain as a human. They have no blood (with their blue-or-purple fuel, Energon, being MachineBlood in incarnations where it runs throughout their bodies in liquid form - constantly seen in ''WesternAnimation/TransformersPrime''.) but they blush red.

* The Future Pokémon from ''VideoGame/PokemonScarletAndViolet'' are all robotic counterparts to present-day Pokémon, but they can be subject to anything their flesh-and-blood versions can go through. Barring elemental immunities, these robotic Pokémon can be poisoned, put to sleep, suffer burns in the same way animals do, get confused, eat sandwiches (Miraidon in particular ''really'' [[TrademarkFavoriteFood likes sandwiches]]), flinch from surprise, get scared, get distracted, disobey inexperienced trainers and loaf about, and develop loyalty towards strong trainers. They also have dot-matrix displays for eyes with animations for blinking and a full range of emotions.

* Exploited in ''Fanfic/NoStarsInSight''. While exploring the navigation deck of a derelict ColonyShip, Ikharos is jumped by an [[KillerRobot ExSec Exo]] armed with a knife. Right before he was attacked, he heard the Exo [[HellIsThatNoise make breathing noises]] and deduces that it is still stuck in the mindset of an organic. During their fight, he takes advantage of this by putting the Exo into a stranglehold and slitting its throat. Just as he predicted, the Exo instinctively panics and clutches its artificial throat while hacking for air, forgetting that it doesn't need oxygen to live.
