* ''ComicBook/Champions1975'': Most of the characters involved in the ill-fated team are none too proud of it. They tend to [[RealitySubtext share the same criticisms that fans made of the team in real life]]--the team had no meaningful relationships, barely accomplished anything apart from defending its own headquarters, and failed entirely at its stated goal of being "the heroes for the common man." The only exception is Hercules, who seems to view it more fondly.

* Fans of ''Series/BuffyTheVampireSlayer'' may be familiar with Kennedy and the time she was a DrillSergeantNasty. The Willow comic continuation gives an example where it's brought up and Kennedy is actually disgusted with the way she acted.

Supertrope to IWasYoungAndNeededTheMoney and OnceDoneNeverForgotten. Compare MyGreatestFailure, which is when the hero is motivated by this and DarkSecret, which is when the thing done in the past isn't just embarassing to the character, but potentially ruinous and legitimately troubling. Also see PayingYourDues and WaitingForABreak, for the non-glamorous (but not really shameful) gigs most artists are reduced to taking until their careers take off.

* ''WesternAnimation/RazzberryJazzberryJam'': As a kid, RC participated in the music video of the “Silly Time Song” while wearing clown getup. RC is deeply embarrassed by this and spends the better part of an episode trying to prevent the other Jazzberries from finding out about it.

** You also won't hear him (or [[ComicBook/FantasticFour Johnny Storm]], for that matter) say anything positive about the Spider-Mobile. The original one, at least. It's also a case of IWasYoungAndNeededTheMoney for him.

Added DiffLines:

* In ''VideoGame/CassetteBeasts'', one of your teammates' character quests revolves around this. Felix is an artist who, during an Anime phase in his younger years, created a character named [[NinjaPirateZombieRobot Kuneko]] (a CatGirl [[BornOfHeavenAndHell born from a cross between an angel and a demon]] who was left as a DoorstopBaby for a clan of {{Ninja}} to raise). However, she turns out to have [[ArtInitiatesLife come to life]] in New Wirral; the quest line involves chasing after her as she attempts to complete trials at four elemental shrines [[spoiler:before eventually transforming into an [[EldritchAbomination Archangel]] out of [[RageAgainstTheAuthor rage over Felix's]] [[WellDoneSonGuy rejection of her]].]]
