* ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh!: The Abridged Series|Yu-Gi-Oh the Abridged Series]]'' makes a joke about objectification this way. The boys ignore what [[Ms. Fanservice|Mai Valentine]] actually has to say even going as far as referring to her as "it". |

* The ''[[SCP Foundation]]'' does this intentionally, at least in official files.
