*WebAnimation/WolfSongTheMovie:
**Once Alador calls Cobalt out for fleeing battle during one on one combat, the latter takes things highly personal. Sure, his orders aren't to kill, rather to break his target, but his sheer resentment of the guy who damaged his own ego results in [[spoiler: a beating far too horrific for him to survive.]]
**Cobalt seems to be the embodiment of this trope. On another occasion, when Zar apologises for his horrible treatment of Cobalt as a pup, as the latter is on a personal rant about him taking "his sanity, his friends, his life" and [[spoiler: this is enough for him to resort to first degree murder.]]
** The trope isn't limited to Cobalt however. A heroic example (or anti heroic depending on how you look at it) is with Arrow, who is vying for revenge on the Death Alpha and wants to "rip the flesh off his pack's killer". He does around the end get his chance to exact revenge but [[spoiler: things backfire hard on him, resulting in his abrupt, brutal and tragic end]]
**Kara also feels this way to the Death Alpha, owing to events earlier in the film, but just before she can end his life [[spoiler: he brainwashes her father, forcing her to kill him or watch her pack (or whatever was left of it) tear themselves apart, which she reluctantly chooses the former.]]
** Put simply, harbouring resentment towards anyone in Wolf Song invariably will lead to tragedy.

* In ''Webcomic/ElGoonishShive'', Edward is the head of the local FBI division tasked with dealing with supernatural incidents. His son and his friends get involved in a number of them. With all the incidents his son and his son's friend group gets involved in, he is personally invested in making sure they are okay when all is said and done. His superior suspected as much and his suspicion is confirmed when Edward attacks a criminal after he surrendered because of what Abraham did to Nanase and Ellen. Because of his excess personal investment in whatever happens to the main characters, his superior removes him from his position because that incident proved that he is ''too'' personally invested in local incidents.

* One episode of ''Series/{{Taskmaster}}'' has the prize task of "The Most High Octane Item". Mark Watson interprets "high-octane" as "dangerous", and decides the most dangerous thing he can do is steal from the Taskmaster. So he gets Ed Gambol to ''steal Greg's pants''. Greg is so transgressed by this that, despite finding it to actually be quite clever, he never-the-less puts Mark last.
--> '''Greg:''' This is gonna come as a surprise, but I'm gonna put Mark last place! Because he ''stole my fucking trousers!''
