Tempting Fate/New Media

"Hitch: Done. I am not doing space vampires! No! Done. Done! Dammit!!"
 * This thing is indestructible. From Team Fortress 2's Something Completely Different.
 * At the end of the Lonelygirl15 episode "Backyard Bikini Patrol", Sarah remarks, "Us girls had a kickass day today. And, you know what? Tomorrow is gonna be even better!" The following day, in "Tick Tick Boom", villain Salinas sends her a video of her boyfriend Bound and Gagged with a bomb strapped to his chest.
 * Also in "Partner Swap", the day before prom night, Emma comments, "I have this feeling that we're going to have the most memorable night of our lives." In the next episode, "Prom: It's To Die For",.
 * Occurs all the time in the Protectors of the Plot Continuum. Whenever an agent says anything along the lines of "At last, a break from badfic." or "Now I can catch some sleep." he/she/other/it get sent to another mission. Lampshaded by references to the "Laws of Narrative Comedy". If a mission is described as appearing "not too bad", it will rapidly get worse.
 * Desu Des Brigade: After learning of the aforementioned Project D being done at a NASA base, Hitch said, "I am so outta here the moment they mention space vampires!" Much later in the review, near the end, when the vampire tells Kuki about their battle with evil aliens across the universe...

""Look on the bright side. It could be worse." "How could it possibly be worse?" (rant detailing the situation they're in) "It could be raining." "You idiot! It cannot rain in space!""
 * In part 2 of Metroid Confusion, the two protagonists are blasted into space by a nuclear explosion. As they drift pointlessly through space on a piece of rock, the following exchange occurs:

"Yahtzee: Thanks to Radical Entertainment and Sucker Punch Productions for being such good sports. You sick, sick fucks."
 * It seems that when anyone tries to review the godawful Batman and Robin film, it is almost a requirement to suggest that it won't be as bad as it's made out to be ( like Riff Trax and The Nostalgia Critic, with the latter providing a quote). In the case of the Critic, not less than 15 seconds after saying so, he tries (and fails) to pop a cyanide pill.
 * Throughout the Critic's review he's been doing this a lot. He said that a current scene would be even cheesier if a certain special effect is used or quote is said. And then that happens anyway.
 * Zero Punctuation illustrates this concept with DC character Dr. Fate being offered cake.
 * There's also the "Prototype vs In Famous", where Yahtzee declared both games to be equal and jokingly said that if the game studios want him to pick a winner, they'll have to send him their best images of the rival game's main character wearing women's lingerie. Much to his surprise and horror, they complied.

"Chuggaaconroy: I JUST HAD TO OPEN MY MOUTH! I JUST HAD TO SAY IT! AS SOON! AS I FINISH SAYING IT! YOU! SUCK! YOU! SUCK! GAME!"
 * The first song in Prop 8: The Musical ends with "Nothing can go wrong/So join us in this song/Of happy days, for the gays/Nothing can go wrong!" Enter the Corrupt Corporate Executive with the titular proposition.
 * The Nostalgia Chick was sure that She-Ra Princess Of Power and He-Man and the Masters of the Universe weren't as gay as the Critic made them out to be. He-Man baking proved her wrong.
 * The Spoony One sang a parody of Rob Van Dam's entrance music during one of the first episodes of Wrestle! Wrestle!, with cheesy lyrics about himself ("Duh-da-duh-da-duh! It's time for the Spoony One's! Duh-da-duh-da-duh! Wrest-ling show!"), then remarked "Watch people ask me to make that the theme song." You get three guesses as to what WW's theme song is, and the first two don't count.
 * Chuggaaconroy is over this trope. This biggest one was in The Submerged Castle where he was carring a donut as treasure back with his pikmin in pikmin 2. He said he didn't think he triggered the WaterWraith... just as if falls down onto the floor infront of the ship.


 * Said by Linkara in Atop the Fourth Wall before trying to upload an AI to his spaceship through an ion storm. Cue Iron Liz switching into a Mirror Universe.
 * Jim Sterling in his Jimquisition article "Hate Out Of Ten". After a rant on gamers whining about how a rating of 8 out of 10 for a highly anticipated game is not a good enough score, he nervously asks "At least we're not criticizing 9's, at least now. Right? Yeah?" Cue a blog criticizing Games Radar for giving The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword a 9.
 * Metal Gear Awesome: After being incinerated by lasers and blown up by mines, Snake mentions: "Oh gee whiz, I sure hope a tank doesn't totally come out of nowhere and OWN me!" Cue the tank totally coming out of nowhere and owning him.
 * In Web Video/Tabletop, Wil Wheaton mentions that one of the reasons he likes Zombie Dice is because nobody ever gets out to a huge lead. Cue . The tempting of fate was exacerbated by the other players egging him on to keep rolling, believing that his luck was going to run out on him.
