* ''[[AVeryPotterMusical A Very Potter Sequel]]'' has a (seemingly) improvisational instance of this. There is a scene where Ron attempts to pull a poster of Taylor Lautner off the wall in Umbridge's office, but it appears the actor has too much trouble trying to tear it down and ends up returning to the group, saying "it's stuck on with magic!" When they appear in the next room -- which is the same area on the stage they just "left" -- they comment on the fact that "there's a Taylor Lautner poster in here, too!"

* ''WebVideo/DragonBallZAbridged'' does this from time to time as well. In episode 38 Android 17 asks how Gero made himself into an android. When Gero responds that he made himself a new body and put his own brain into it Android 18 asks how he managed to do that. Gero responds with a bewildered "How ''did'' I do that?"

* ''FanFic/SonicXDarkChaos'' is pretty much one half DarkerAndEdgier action-packed science fiction adventure and the other half this trope. It gleefully references, parodies, and deconstructs tons of tropes common in the ''Sonic the Hedgehog'' fandom from MarySue OCs to "edgy" characters to StupidEvil villains.

** Tsali makes a number of jabs and jokes towards "edgy" characters, to the point where he actually references the [[MemeticMutation "Coldsteel the Hedgeheg" meme]]. It's also a case of SelfDeprecation, since he himself is an "edgy" OC [[spoiler: at first]]

* You can trust Discord to get a major one in for the [[FanFic/TriptychContinuum Triptych Continuum]] (even if you can't trust him for anything else), complete with appropriate accessory. His description of the mission in the [[http://www.fimfiction.net/story/101769/triptych main story]] comes out like this: '"You're going to go do something that I, with all my power, could seemingly accomplish ''all'' by myself with practically ''no'' effort on my part. But instead, I'm sending a bunch of ''considerably'' lesser strengths out there for reasons which I will not explain and allowing my quasi-omnipotent self to take a nap while everypony ''else'' deals with all the trouble." He glanced back at Celestia, adjusted the lampshade resting on his head. "That's about right, isn't it?"'

* The ''Manga/RanmaOneHalf'' ElsewhereFic ''FanFic/BoyScoutsOneHalf'' has a charater, Bill Gelinas, who has developed a strange knack of pointing out when things are too convenient, or of thinking that he sees unlikely patterns in the lives of himself and his fellows. His declarations of such have even developed a stock response of, "Shut up, Bill!" that has been so ingrained in his fellows that they have been known to shout it out almost like a Pavlovian response even if Bill is not present when something too convenient occurs. (Or, to ''really'' [[{{Main/BreakingTheFourthWall}} break the fourth wall]], on rare occasion a scene with such an occurrence without him present has cut away to him for him to randomly declare the convenience of it.
