* A whoopee cushion can be found as a joke item in ''VideoGame/{{Terraria}}''. It does nothing but produce funny noises.
* This is one of the pranks child and teen sims can play in the ''Generations'' expansion for ''VideoGame/TheSims3''.

* ''VideoGame/{{Terraria}}'' has Whoopie Cushions as a rare accessory drop from giant worm enemies. By itself it just adds a fart sound effect to a character's jumping, but one can be combined with the Cloud in a Jar accessory to produce a Fart in a Jar, allowing the player to DoubleJump... accompanied by a fart sound. This item can in turn be combined with a Shiny Red Balloon, then with a Lucky Horseshoe, to make the Green Horseshoe Balloon, allowing a character to double-jump, jump higher, and ignore FallingDamage... and make fart sounds when jumping.

* In one episode of ''Series/{{Frasier}}'' Niles recounts the story of one night where a servant placed a whoopee cushion on [[TheGhost Maris']] chair. The prank failed because Maris, who is often stated to be alarmingly underweight, was too light to activate it.

* In an episode of ''WesternAnimation/{{Recess}}'' when TJ was trying ever more elaborate pranks on King Bob to prove he was worthy of being the Prankster Prince, TJ finally got him with a whoopee cushion. For maximum embarrassment, it was placed right next to an active microphone blasting the sound across the entire playground. Bob was impressed by the simplicity.

Whoopee cushions are items that make a farting sound when someone sits or steps on them. Frequently used by pranksters.

Whoopee cushions are items that make a farting sound when someone sits or steps on them. Frequently used by pranksters.ThePrankster, and may be part of an AprilFoolsDay joke. They are a form of ToiletHumour, so people who use them are usually children or very immature adults. Compare StinkBomb, which recreates the smell of a fart rather than the sound.

At the time, Murdoch doesn't seem to get the joke (or many of the other jokes, for that matter), but he later makes his own whoopee cushion and tricks Julia into sitting on it. Murdoch not only laughs heartily at Julia's reaction, he's also very pleased that his version worked so well.
