* ''Anime/PompoTheCinephile'' has the titular Pompo briefly inflating herself like a balloon while explaining to her assistant that she hates movies that are too long and bloated. It comes off as a bit of a BigLippedAlligatorMoment since the film is fairly realistic in its setting and characters, with no overly cartoony or animesque tropes.

* Creator/GregEgan included a subtle and rare literary example in his ''Literature/{{Orthogonal}}'' trilogy. One application of the StarfishAliens' {{Shapeshifting}} ability is that they write by raising shaped ridges on their skin, then dusting their skin with dye and pressing it to paper for posterity, like a stamp. But when characters can't hear each other, either because the environment is too noisy or because they are in the [[SpaceIsNoisy silent vacuum of space]], they can also communicate by "writing" notes on their skin for others to read.
