History Main / ThatCloudLooksLike

* ''Animation/{{Lamput}}'': In Season 3's "Wig", the docs watch clouds together. Slim Doc thinks one cloud looks like Lamput, while Fat Doc thinks it looks like a heart.

* The ''WesternAnimation/{{Rugrats}}'' episode, "[[Recap/RugratsS4E12SendInTheCloudsInTheNaval Send in the Clouds]]" begins with the babies looking up at the clouds. They find clouds shaped like a lollipop, a rabbit, and Reptar. Chuckie then thinks he sees a cloud that looks like an airplane, only for Tommy to point out that it really is an airplane.

* In ''VideoGame/GrowingUp'', one of the entertainment activities you can do is go cloudwatching. "Failing" it has you imagining a pile of poop in the clouds while "succeeding" in it has you spotting Bunny & Quack in them.

* ''VideoGame/MassEffectAndromeda:'' One system in the Heleus Cluster is named after a famous krogan. The ''Tempest'' pilot Kallo is initially confused by this, until science officer Suvi points out the nebula that comprises it does look like a krogan's head.
-->'''Kallo:''' I don't- Oooh, I see it!

[[StockPhrase Sometimes]], just to be funny, someone will say "[[ShapedLikeItself It looks like mashed potatoes / a marshmallow / an airborne agglomeration of moisture!]]" Another common joke is for the character to say it looks like some kind of airborne object (i.e. an airplane, a bird, a GiantFlyer, or a spaceship) only for the audience to then see that it's exactly that.

->'''Lucy''': If you use your imagination, you can see lots of things in the cloud formation...What do you think you see, Linus?\\
'''Linus''': Well, those clouds up there look to me like the map of the British Honduras in the Caribbean... That cloud up there looks a little like the profile of Thomas Eakins, the famous painter and sculptor... and that group of clouds over there gives me the impression of the stoning of Stephen...I can see the Apostle Paul standing there to one side....\\
'''Lucy''': Uh huh...That's very good... What do you see in the clouds, Charlie Brown?\\
'''Charlie Brown''': Well, I was going to say I saw a ducky and a horsie, but I changed my mind.

* PlayedForLaughs in ''Manga/FrierenJourneysEnd''. Fern muses that Stark might not be so bad...then she overhears him saying a cloud with two lumps looks like boobs. She is decidedly unimpressed and figures he's a perv after all.

--> '''Mario:''' Hey, Luigi, you ever noticed how clouds can look like other things? Like that one over there, it looks sort of like the princess!
--> '''Luigi:''' Yeah, it sure does Mario! And that one looks like Aunt Maria! Hey, but for realism, how about that one over there? It looks just like the Doomship!
--> '''Mario and Luigi:''' ''[[OhCrap THE DOOMSHIP!?]]''
