* ''WesternAnimation/{{Futurama}}'': In his introductory episode, "A Clone of my Own", Professor Farnsworth's clone Cubert keeps insisting that all of Farnsworth's inventions are impossible. By the end of the episode, he gives in to Farnsworth's way of thinking, and manages to figure out how one of his inventions works just in time to save everyone.

** In the season one episode "Midlife Chrysalis," Dr. Venture is turned into giant caterpillar. When Hank takes this situation a little too well for Doc's liking, Hank explains that they see weird stuff like this every week.

->'''[[IdiotHero Goku]]:''' (Referring to a giant tree sucking all the energy out of Earth) I think the only course of action left... is to reason with it!\\

* ''WesternAnimation/TheAmazingWorldOfGumball'':
** "The Curse": Anais, the smart one of the Watterson children, tries to dissuade her brother that he has been cursed with bad luck. She attempts to prove it by having him go through several bad luck causing events. She seems to be right, until a cloud forms and strikes Gumball with lightning ''indoors''.

* In Polish comic book ComicBook/EmilkaSza when a character finaly explain that titual Emilka isn't playing a mime but is in fact literaly born a mime, being a mime is her species (showing mimes among fantasy creatures in a creature guide) and that [[YourMimeMakesItReal she is such skilled mmime that even the hospial where she was born was mimed by her]], Eric - the series only sane men - takes a moment of silence, imagine himself kicking a box that say "logic" into a fireplace and decide to roll with it and never questions anything around Emilka's nature for the rest of the book.

* ''VideoGame/BlazBlue'' cues this during Makoto's gag reel [[spoiler: when a hat [[WTHCastingAgency used to draw names for a dramatic re-enactment of her family life]] decided [[NoIndoorVoice Ba]][[IdiotHero ng]] should play the role of her soft-spoken, math-smart younger sister]]. This was after [[spoiler:said hat chose [[ShrinkingViolet Noel]] to play [[MrFanservice the daddy]] and [[AxCrazy Hazama]] the [[BewareTheNiceOnes mommy]]]].

* Partway through the Ishgardian Hildibrand quest line in ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyXIV'', Inquisitor Cyr comes to the conclusion that he's been transported into an alternate dimension where the laws of logic and reason no longer apply. Considering he's working alongside [[{{Cloudcuckoolander}} Hildibrand Manderville]] and the [[WeirdnessMagnet Warrior]] [[PlayerCharacter of Light]], this is perfectly reasonable.
