* ComicBook/{{Deadpool}} and ComicBook/CaptainAmerica demonstrate in ''Baby's First Deadpool''.
--->Though he doesn't share their viewpoint, Captain America is considerate of the feelings of his vegetarian friends.\\
Deadpool bounds up vegetarians and force-feeds them meatloaf.
* The ''WesternAnimation/CaptainNTheGameMaster'' comics had "Villain Do's and Don'ts," in which a strongman named Uranos demonstrates the right way to be a villain, and [[HarmlessVillain the Eggplant Wizard]] demonstrates the wrong way. For instance, Uranos uses a forbidding fortress as his base of operations, while the Eggplant Wizard uses a baseball stadium.
* Played with in ''Comicbook/RichieRich''. Cadbury serves as a one-man example of this when he trains another butler by showing him first the wrong way, then the right way to act in a particular situation (e.g., making a pass at the maid as opposed to greeting her politely). However, the trainee's employer, checking up on his progress, always manages to catch Cadbury only when he's acting the wrong way, and in increasingly [[ExaggeratedTrope exaggerated]] fashion. She finally kicks him out, then is pleasantly surprised when her own butler performs his duties so well.

* The French webseries "[[https://www.youtube.com/user/eaumelimelo/playlists Graie Méli Mélo]]" uses this setup to answer common questions about water treatment, using two actors best known for their parts in ''{{Series/Kaamelott}}''. Unfortunately, while the "Wrong Way" guy is just as ignorant and clueless as his character on the show, the effect is tarnished by the fact that the "Right Way" guy's character is an IneptMage specializing in getting his facts wrong.
