Line 36:
* A ''[[Bloom County]]'' strip had Opus beach himself like a whale. Milo and Binkley stood over him, discussing the tragedy of whales beaching themselves, and then walked away, one of them lamenting, "If only they had feet." At which point Opus did a double take, stood up saying, "I ''do'' have feet, don't I?" and was next seen reclining in a chair watching TV.
* An early issue of ''X-Men'' has telekinetic superheroine Jean Grey trapped on the second floor of a building, until teammate Beast reminds her that she can fly. Yes, she forgot she had super powers. Silly females! (It would be a few years yet before feminism hit the Marvel Universe.)
* Once in ''[[Shoe]]'', "Perfesser" Cosmo Fishhawk and Loon were tubing down a river. The Perfesser was enjoying himself until Loon mentioned they were coming to a waterfall. Then he panicked: "We'll be drowned like rats!" Loon pointed out that rats can't fly (he and Cosmo are both birds), and the Perfesser looked enormously embarrassed as they flew away over the falls.
