"The Reason You Suck" Speech/Western Animation: Difference between revisions

* ''[[Justice League: Crisis Onon Two Earths]]''. Batman serves one to [[Smug Snake]] Owlman after his giggling [[Not So Different]] proclamations as a [[Pre-Mortem One-Liner]]:

{{quote| '''Batman:''' There is a difference between you and me. We both looked into the abyss, but when it looked back at us, ''you blinked''. }}

* In the end of ''[[Max FleischersFleischer's GulliversGulliver's Travels]]'', Gulliver does this to the dueling kingdoms after Prince David is apparently killed saving Gulliver from being shot, but it ends on a high note:

{{quote| Poor foolish little people, look what you've done. Now go ahead, break your nutshell heads over your song. But did you have to break Glory's heart, King Little? Because you were thoughtless and selfish...and you, Bombo, oh mighty warrior...what have you won? You were too stubborn to think. Too busy quarreling to land dear to the harmony that might have been yours. But now in your sorrow and despair, perhaps you'll listen to your songs as they might be sung. (cue "Faithful Forever").}}

* The ''[[Peanuts (Comic Strip)|Peanuts]]'' special ''Be My Valentine, Charlie Brown'' has one from (quite surprisingly) Schroeder. On the morning after Valentine's Day, Charlie Brown's female classmates approach him, explain that they feel bad he didn't get a single valentine card, and offer him one of their own cards with the original name scratched off and his penciled in. Seeing this, an outraged Schroeder tears into them for their hypocritical gesture:

{{quote| '''Schroeder''': Hold on there! What do you think you're doing? Who do you think you are? Where were you yesterday, when everyone else was giving out valentines? Is kindness and thoughtfulness something you can make retroactive? Don't you think he has any feelings? You and your friends are the most thoughtless bunch I've ever known! You don't care anything about Charlie Brown, you just hate to feel guilty! And now you have the nerve to come around one day later and offer him a used valentine, just to ease your conscience! Well, let me tell you something! Charlie Brown doesn't need your...<br />

*:* That was an adaptation from a famous strip.

*:* It's not totally surprising if you know that not only is Schroeder among the characters that treats Chuck like a [[Butt Monkey]] the least, he gave a similar speech in ''Charlie Brown's All-Stars''.

*:* It was actually Linus that said the similar speech in "Charlie Brown's All-Stars". Although Schroeder did back Linus up.

* ''[[Justice League (Animationanimation)|Justice League]]'' subverts this one brilliantly. An insane [[Lex Luthor]], having been elected to President of the United States, is threatening nuclear apocalypse. Superman and Lex are at an impasse, with Lex's finger on the trigger:

{{quote| '''Luthor:''' No, you ''need'' me. You wouldn't be much of a hero without a villain, and you ''do'' love being a hero, don't you? The cheering children, the swooning women -- you love it so much, it's made you my most reliable accomplice!<br />

'''Superman:''' Accomplice? What are you --<br />

'''Luthor:''' You could've crushed me anytime you wanted! And it wasn't the ''law'' or the will of the people that stopped you; it was ''your ego''. Being a hero was too important to you. You're as much responsible for this as I am! So, go ahead, fix it somehow--put me on trial, lock me up--but I'll beat it. And then we'll start the whole thing all over again!<br />

*:* However, during season 2 of ''[[Justice League Unlimited]]'', he was very close to being his Justice Lord counterpart. He even wished he was like him. But ultimately (and fortunately), he just couldn't go through with it.

{{quote| '''Superman:''' I'm not the man who killed President Luthor. Right now, I wish to heaven that I were, but I'm not.}}

*:* His cousin had one of her own:

{{quote| '''[[Supergirl]]''': You know what? No matter how bad you beat me, I'm real, not a clone.<br />

'''Galatea''': Shut up.<br />

* Another [[DCAU]] example occurs in ''[[Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker (Animation)|Batman Beyond Return of the Joker]]'', when the Joker discovers Batman's true identity and dismisses him as "a little boy in a playsuit crying for mommy and daddy." Fifty years later, the Joker gets a brutal taste of his own medicine when Terry McGinnis (the new Batman) does the exact same thing to ''him'', pointing out to the Joker that he was never all that funny to begin with and laughing at him until the Joker flies into a rage and begins trying to strangle him. Unfortunately, the Joker's so blinded by his anger that he doesn't realize that Batman's about to zap him with one of his own electrified joybuzzers ...

** The "mommy and daddy" line gets an [[Ironic Echo]] of sorts in the [[Lighter and Softer|considerably more light-hearted]] ''[[Batman: theThe Brave And The Bold (Animation)|Batman the Brave And The Bold]]'' (Paul Dini did write both screenplays, mind you):

{{quote| '''Bat-Mite:''' To be sure, this is a lighter incarnation, but it's certainly no less valid and true to the character's roots as the tortured avenger crying out for mommy and daddy.}}

*:* Bruce did this to Ra's Al Gul. He did this while tied up and on the verge of being body snatched by Ra's.

{{quote| '''Bruce Wayne:''' Sure Ra's, why not? Anything to hold off the Grim Reaper a few more seconds. I take it back. You don't cheat death. You whimper in fear of it!<br />

'''Ra's:''' SILENCE! ''[slaps Bruce]<br />''

**:* That last line is made funnier because Ra's has already body-snatched his own daughter to avoid dying; an act that pretty much confirms what Bruce is saying.

* ''[[Aladdin (Disney film)|Aladdin]]: The Return of Jafar'' has a [[Villain Song|The Reason You Suck]] ''[[Villain Song|Music Number]]'', "You're Only Second-Rate".

{{quote| '''Mozenrath:''' The magic of a genie was handed to you on a silver platter, but I gave my ''right hand'' for power! To wear the gauntlet is painful... but it's worth it! ''Worth it to destroy the likes of you!''}}

* ''[[Transformers Cybertron (Anime)|Transformers Cybertron]]'': Optimus Prime gives one to Galvatron, shortly before they make their final clash and Optimus runs him through.

{{quote| '''Optimus:''' You will ''always'' lose, Galvatron. You think of nothing but destruction. None of your victories last. You care about nothing but yourself. No-one cares about you. The time has come to end your struggle.}}

* ''[[Transformers Animated (Animation)|Transformers Animated]]'': Bulkhead delivers one to Wasp in "Where Is Thy Sting."

{{quote| '''Bulkhead:''' [[Shut UP, Hannibal|No Wasp...]] You were always [[Jerk Jock|mean to me and Bumblebee.]] You may not be a traitor ... but you were ''never'' a good bot.}}

:*** These on-the-nose jabs become even more interesting when you consider that Brian is often considered to be an [[Author Avatar]] for series creator [[Seth MacFarlane]] and Quagmire is also voiced by MacFarlane. So we have him giving a [["The Reason You Suck" Speech]] to his own [[Author Avatar]]. [[Logic Bomb|Don't think about it too hard.]] Ironically, Quagmire's been trying to hit on Lois himself. Though Quagmire's not completely dependent on Peter, unlike Brian.

*:* Brian gives [[Alpha Bitch|Connie D'Amico]] an [[Family Guy (Animation)/Awesome|awesome one]] in the episode "Barely Legal" (keep in mind, Brian is drunk at the time):

{{quote| '''Connie D'Amico''': You know, Meg, there's no dogs allowed here, so you're gonna have to leave, but Brian can stay. ''(She and another couple laugh)''<br />

'''Brian''': ''(slurring a bit)'' You know, Connie, I think I have a theory about why you're such a bitch.<br />

'''Connie D'Amico''': Excuse me?!<br />

'''Meg''': Brian, let's just go.<br />

'''Brian''': No, no, no, no, no, hang on. Hang on, Meg, hang on. You see, Connie, you're popular because you developed early and started giving handjobs when you were 12. But now you can't stand to look at yourself in the mirror because all you see is a whore. So you pick on Meg to avoid the inevitable realization that once your body's used up by age 19 you're gonna be a worn-out, chalky-skinned burlap sack that even your stepdad won't want. How's that, am I in the ballpark?<br />

*:* One of the show's favorite cutaway gags is showing Stewie give some celebrity a [["The Reason You Suck" Speech]]. There was a funny scene subverting the audience's expectation of the subject's reaction when Stewie attempted to tell Matthew McConaughey how much he sucked. McConaughey simply agreed with everything Stewie said, admitting that, yes, his movies sucked and yes, he was a bad actor.

*:* In "Seahorse Seashell Party", Meg, the resident [[Butt Monkey]] of the show, calls Chris, Lois, and Peter out on their flaws, foibles, and abuse towards her.

*:* "Not All Dogs Go To Heaven" features Meg, who recently became a fundamentalist, go up against atheist Brian. Brian finally blows up and delivers one to Meg after she takes him to a book burning (long story). While it's more of a "Reason God Does Not Exist Speech", he uses Meg to disprove God. Here it is...

{{quote| "Ok, fine, the let me ask you this. If there were a God, would He have put you here on Earth with a [[Hollywood Homely|flat chest and a fat ass?]].. Would He give you a smoking [[Hot Mom]] like Lois and have you grow-up looking like Peter?..... And what kind of God would put you in a house where [[Abusive Parents|no one respects and cares about you, not even enough to give you a damn mumps shot]]?!"}}

**:* Meanwhile,Also in the"Not sameAll episodeDogs Go To Heaven", Stewie gave one to THE ENTIRE CAST OF ''[[Star Trek: the Next Generation (TV)|Star Trek theThe Next Generation]]'', as they were so annoying to him during their trip around town (not knowing about [[McDonald's]] withdrawn products and the requirements to bowl the examples featured).

{{quote| "This...was...exhausting. This whole experience, was absolutely...exhausting. You people have [[Ruined FOREVER|ruined "Star Trek: The Next Generation" for me]]. You are absolutely [[Idiot Ball|the most insufferable group of jackasses I have ever had the misfortune of spending an extended period of time with]]. I hope you all [[Precision F-Strike|FUCKING]] DIE."}}

*:* Family Guy LOVES this trope. A more depressing, plea-like one came from Quagmire to his sister, Brenda, in "Screams of Silence", during an intervention to get her away from her [[Bastard Boyfriend]].

{{quote| "The person I see before me right now is just a punching bag. And I call you "person," not "woman," because a woman is a strong, beautiful vibrant creature. Sadly, the fact that you are with [[Jerkass|Jeff]] proves to me that you have made a choice to make your life worse."}}

*:* Yet ANOTHER One came from "Baby Not On Board", where Peter manages to completely mess up a vacation by not knowing about 9/11, jumping out of the car to watch a movie in another car, mocking Lois after she crashed due to said movie, and using the rest of their cash to buy..... shower curtain rings. After the latter, Lois finally blows up at him.

{{quote| "You are unbelievable! The last four days have been a living hell! Our baby is at home all by himself yet instead of getting us home [[The Millstone|you've managed to make things worse at every turn]]! A monkey would be a refreshing step up from you! A monkey would talk less! Here's a little tip. If your instinct tells you to do something, don't do it. If your instinct tells you not to do something, '''it's probably the right thing to do'''!"}}

* One from Ned Flanders of ''[[The Simpsons (Animationanimation)|The Simpsons]]'', of all people, in the eighth season episode "Hurricane Neddy". After his life falls apart, he snaps and lets loose on the whole town.

'''LisaBart Simpson:''' Mr.[[That Flanders,Makes withMe allFeel dueAngry|I respect,am Bartshocked didn'tand do anythingappalled.<br />]]

*:* Marge give a very brief but effective one to Artie Ziff after he lets Homer go to jail for a crime he committed.

{{quote| '''Marge:''' Do you know why no one likes you?<br />

'''Artie:''' Anti-semitism?<br />

'''Marge:''' No. Your problem is you never think of anyone besides yourself!<br />

*:* [[Stephen Hawking]] gives one to the Springfield members of [[Useful Notes/Mensa|Mensa]] in "They Saved Lisa's Brain", when they begin making outlandish proposals:

{{quote| '''Professor Frink:''' You should all do what I say! My IQ is 199, for crying out glavin! (''tries to lean against a pillar, but misses, hitting his head instead'') 198, 197...<br />

'''Stephen Hawking:''' (''offscreen'') Big deal. My IQ is 280.<br />

(''the crowd gasps when Stephen Hawking enters'')<br />

'''Mensa Members:''' Stephen Hawking!<br />

'''Principal Skinner:''' The world's smartest man!<br />

'''Lisa:''' What are you doing here?<br />

'''Hawking:''' I wanted to see your utopia. But now, I see, it is more of a Fruitopia.<br />

'''Skinner:''' (''chuckling'') I'm sure what Dr. Hawking means is...<br />

'''Hawking:''' Silence. [[Self-Deprecation|I don't need anyone to talk for me, except this voicebox.]] You have clearly been corrupted by power. For shame.<br />

'''Homer:''' [[Comically Missing the Point|Larry Flynt]] is right! You guys stink!<br />

(''the crowd cheers in agreement'')<br />

'''Hawking:''' I don't know what is the bigger disappointment: my failure to formulate a unified field theory, or you.<br />

'''Skinner:''' I don't like your tone...<br />

'''Hawking:''' [[Beware the Nice Ones|If you're looking for trouble, you've found it.]]<br />

'''Skinner:''' Just try me, you-Ow!<br />

* ''[[Batman: theThe Brave And The Bold (Animation)|Batman the Brave And The Bold]]''. In "Revenge of the Reach", the [[Blue Beetle]]'s Scarab, the suit's sentient intelligence cohabiting with Jaime Reyes, turns back into its original programming by its alien kind, The Reach, to invade The Green Lantern Corps. It takes complete control of the suit and takes over Jaime's mind for a while, before he asserts his willpower over the suit. The Scarab tries to deter Jaime's progress by telling him he was only a hero because the Reach made him so, and cannot overcome the power of the Reach.

* ''[[Teen Titans (Animationanimation)|Teen Titans]]'': Robin gives Cyborg a scathing one in the beginning of the episode "Titans East Part 2":

{{quote| '''Cyborg:''' "Man, this is supposed to be a good thing! My own Tower! My own team! Why can't you just be happy for me?!"<br />

'''Robin:''' "Because you're already on a team! My team! And you can't just quit!"<br />

'''Cyborg:''' "I can, and I did! Which means I don't have to put up with you telling me what to do anymore!"<br />

'''Robin:''' "So now this is my fault?"<br />

'''Cyborg:''' "It's not about you!"<br />

'''Robin:''' "No! It's all about ''you''! Because that's all you care about! You talk about being a man, but if you can turn your back on us after everything we've been through, you're nothing but a spoiled child!"<br />

* ''[[The Fairly Odd Parents (Animation)|The Fairly Odd ParentsOddParents]] '' with the ''[[Wonderful Life]]'' subversion episode, "It's A Wishful Life", in which Jorgen Von Strangle tells Timmy very gloatingly that he's responsible for nearly every bad thing in the world from the Chicago Cubs losing streak to his friend Chester having bad teeth. Timmy then willingly offers to disappear from existence to make life better for his friends and family. The love that Timmy had for the people in his life made Jorgen the one who looked like a [[Jerkass]] and the conclusion you came to was that it was Jorgen who really sucked. As for it being an aesop about not doing things for praise, Jorgen Von Strangle is the last person to preach that; just check out the episode "Fairly Oddlympics" especially the ''clink'', ''clink'', ''clink'' part.

{{quote|'''Stella (the nanny)Cartman:''' "Me? Well, itI'sm feeling confused, because I lovedon't children,understand likewhy you." <brbecame />a nanny."

'''CartmanStella (the nanny):''' "RightMe? Well, but...it's ifbecause youI love children so much, how comelike you're not a mommy?." <br />

'''CartmanStella:''' "WhyOh, not?"I <brjust />never had kids."

'''StellaCartman:''' "It...Why just...didn't happen.not?" <br />

*:* Another great one that [[Subverted Aesop|turns]] what appears to be a message of bigotry in to one of tolerance-- One episode is almost entirely spent deconstructing the beliefs of Mormons, and Stan ''angrily'' makes his dislike for Mormonism known to a Mormon family who invited the Marshes over for dinner, and it appears for a moment that he's being portrayed as a hero. [[Subverted Trope|The next day, he is confronted by the boy who invited them over]].

{{quote| '''Gary:''' Maybe us Mormons do believe in crazy stories that make absolutely no sense, and maybe Joseph Smith did make it all up. But I have a great life and a great family, and I have the Book of Mormon to thank for that. The truth is, I don’t care if Joseph Smith made it all up, because what the Church teaches now is loving your family, being nice and helping people. And even though people in this town might think that’s stupid, I still choose to believe in it. All I ever did was try to be your friend, Stan, but you're so high and mighty you couldn't look past my religion and just be my friend back. You've got a lot of growing up to do, buddy. Suck my balls.<br />

(Gary walks off. All four boys just look at him in wonder.)<br />

'''Cartman:''' [[South Park (Animation)/Funny|Damn, that kid is cool, huh?]] }}

*:* Mr. Garrison gives a good one to Rosie O'Donnell (though it could be targeted at any Hollywood celebrity involved in politics) during the Kindergarten class presidential elections:

{{quote| '''Mr. Garrison:''' Half the kids in the class didn't vote for your nephew. So what about them? You don't give a crap about them because they're not on your side! People like you preach tolerance and open-mindedness all the time but when it comes to Middle America, you think we're all evil and stupid country yokels who need your political enlightenment! Well just because you're on TV, doesn't mean you know crap about the government! Now get your ass back on first class and respect this class's right to make up their own minds!!!}}

*:* Stan gave one to Al Gore after the end of "ManBearPig" when he and his friends narrowly escaped a cave in that was soon flooded (All caused by Gore himself), which Gore tried to take the credit for saving them. But Stan will not have any of it:

{{quote| '''Stan:''' Stay away from us, asshole! I was nice to you because I felt sorry for you, because you don't have any friends! But now I see ''why'' you don't have any friends! You just used ManBearPig as a way [[Attention Whore|to get attention for yourself]] because you're a ''loser''!!}}

::*** Of course, Al Gore [[Comically Missing the Point|misses the point entirely]] and [[Miles Gloriosus|still sees himself as a hero]].

*:* Butters gives one to his parents (on their anniversary!) in "Butters' Very Own Episode" after he's {{spoiler|nearly been killed by his mother}} and to stop their fighting:

{{quote| '''Butters:''' Now gosh darn it, you! [steps in between his parents] You listen here! Now I am sick of these harmless lies and l-little white lies. You know, you can call a shovel an ice-cream machine, but it's still a shovel, Mom and Dad. Ah, and you can call a lie whatever you want, but it's still a no-good stinkin' lie! And when you start coverin' up one lie with another why, now that's when you get into real trouble! [Chris and Linda listen] Boy I've, I've just about had it up to here [puts his right hand to his chin, palm down] with you two!}}

:* Butters' speech to his bullying grandmother in "Butterballs" is an epic one and possibly his ultimate CMOA.

{{quote| '''Butters:''' "Grandma? I did it grandma, I finally stood up for myself, I got real mean and I beat the snot out of Dr. Oz. I can't lie, it felt kind of good at first, but since then all I have is this kind of dark empty feeling, and then I realized, that's how you must feel, all the time. Poor old grandma, you know, I've been getting lots of advice on how to deal with you, stand up to you, tell on you, but I kind of realize that there's just people like you out there, all over the place. When you're a kid, things seem like they're going to last forever, but they're not, life changes. You won't always be around, someday you're going to die, someday pretty soon, and when you're laying in that hospital bed, with tubes up your nose, and that little pan under your butt to pee in, I'll come visit you. I'll come just to show you that I'm still alive and I'm still happy, and you'll die, being nothing but you... Night grandma! }}

*:* There's one [[Reason You Suck Speech]] that tops that one, though - Butters' lambasting of the counselors at the "Pray The Gay Away" camp.

{{quote| '''Butters:''' All right, that does it! I am sick and tired of everyone telling me I'm confused! I wasn't confused until other people started tellin' me I was! You know what I think? I think maybe you are the ones who are confused!... I'm not gonna be confused anymore just because you say I should be! My name is Butters, I'm eight years old, I'm blood type O, and I'm bi-curious! And even that's okay! Because if I'm bi-curious, and I'm somehow made from God, then I think your God must be a little bi-curious himself!}}

* Who can forget Martin Luther King's remake of his famous "I have a dream" speech into a damn epic Reason all of you suck speech from ''[[The Boondocks (Comic Strip)|The Boondocks]]''?

{{quote| '''Martin Luther King:''' Will you ignorant niggas PLEASE shut the hell up?'' Is this it? This is what I got all those ass-whuppins for? I had a dream, once. It was a dream that little black boys and little black girls would drink from the river of prosperity, freed from the thirst of oppression! But lo and behold some four decades later, what have I found but a bunch of trifilin', shiftless, good-for-nothing niggas? And I know some of you don't want to hear me say that word. It's the ugliest word in the English language. But that's what I see now: niggas. And you don't want to be a nigga, 'cause niggas are living contradictions! Niggas are full of unfulfilled ambitions! Niggas wax and wane, niggas love to complain, niggas love to hear themselves talk but hate to explain! Niggas love being another man's judge and jury, niggas procrastinate until it's time to worry, niggas love to be late, niggas hate to hurry! I've seen what's around the corner, I've seen what's over the horizon, and I PROMISE you, you niggas have nothing to celebrate! I know I won't get there with you, I'm going to Canada.}}

*:* "Epic"? This episode [https://web.archive.org/web/20100610221019/http://www.peabody.uga.edu/winners/details.php?id=1475 won a Peabody award], largely on the strength of this speech.

{{quote| '''Numbuh 5:''' "You know, you used to be cool because the team meant more to you than anything. Including yourself. But now you're just a selfish old crank. It's not your age that's changed Mr. Uno, it's you!"}}

* Chaz Finster, father of ''[[Rugrats (Animation)|Rugrats]]'' character Chuckie Finster, delivers one to the parents of Tommy Pickles and Phil and Lil DeVille in the episode "Family Feud" when the parents continue their petty feud even after they realize their children have ''run away'' (mostly because of said feud).

* After being stuck in a [[Groundhog Day Loop]], [[Pepper Ann (Animation)|Pepper Ann]] blows up and lets lose at her Mom, friends, and everyone else by pointing out their faults, by the next day the loop is over and no one is happy with her words about them leading into another loop.

* [[Ben 10 (Animation)|Ben 10]] gives one to Kevin during their second showdown, when he asks if Ben is going to try to help him. Ben replies by telling him he's through trying to help him because Kevin can't seem to take help when its offered. After beating him, Ben finishes it by answering Kevin's attempt to continue the fight by telling him he's not worth finishing off. Backfires, but still, he makes extremely good points.

* In ''[[X-Men (Animationanimation)|X-Men]]'', Psylocke gives a very good reasoning with Archangel.

{{quote| '''Psylocke''': Worthington, what do you care about your fellow mutants? You used your wealth to deny your mutant heritage, you had a scientist try to cure you, and you waste your life trying to hunt a creature who can never die, you brood over your own troubles when you can be using your wealth and power for so much more, it’s for my brother who fights for the good of mutants, all mutants.}}

* In ''[[All Dogs Go to Heaven (Animation)|All Dogs Go to Heaven]]: A Christmas Carol'', the Ghost of Christmas Present (Sasha) gives Carface one over his stealing the money a sick puppy needed for an operation to save his life. Christmas Yet to Come (Charlie) gives him one of these in musical form with "Clean Up Your Act", along with telling him what he can do to change that.

*:* The Cutie Mark Crusaders got one for publishing embarrassing stories about others...from ''[[The Quiet One|Big Macintosh]]'' of all the characters!

{{quote| '''Big Macintosh:''' You should be ashamed of yourself, humiliatin' your sister 'n' me like that. We don't wanna talk to any y'all right now so take your little gossip column and your embarrassing photographs and just go away!}}

* In the ''[[Invader Zim (Animation)|Invader Zim]]'' episode "GIR Goes Crazy and Stuff", GIR gets locked into "duty mode" and becomes scarily competent, to the point that he sees his bungling boss Zim as an impediment to their invasion plans, and chews him out for it:

{{quote| '''GIR:''' You are no leader, you are a threat to the mission! Your methods are ''stupid''! Your progress has been ''stupid''! Your intelligence is ''stupid''! For the sake of the mission, you must be terminated!}}

* In the ''[[Thundercats 2011 (Western Animation)|ThunderCats (2011)]]'' episode "Old Friends", Panthro confronts his [[Evil Former Friend]] Grune and points out that all of Grune's scheming, betraying his people, and becoming [[The Dragon]] to [[Big Bad]] Mumm-Ra has gotten Grune no closer to his original goal, to be [[The Usurper]] of his kingdom, which Mumm-Ra has actually brought to ruin.

* Stan lays into Roger on ''[[American Dad (Animation)|American Dad]]'':

{{quote| '''Stan:''' You're nothing but a worthless sack of fatass! <br />

'''Roger:''' (gasps in horror)<br />

* [[Atomic Betty (Animation)|Atomic Betty]] has one, sorta. Though not quite a speech, but Maximus and Max Sr. both give out their reasons on why they don't want Max Sr. Sr., after he is snatched by them, to continue running things and why they don't want him around for too long.

* In ''[[Sushi Pack (Animation)|Sushi Pack]]'', Tako spends the majority of "But is it Art?" trying to find The Collector, the villain who stole all the masterpieces from the art museum simply to find out why his own art wasn't stolen. When The Collector has the Pack on the ropes, Tako still demands to know why, and The Collector lets him know in no uncertain terms:

{{quote| "Those paint smears of yours? You call that art? You're not an artist. You're an untalented piece of stale fish."}}

* In ''[[Adventure Time (Animation)|Adventure Time]]'', Finn delivers one to a tree witch:

{{quote| '''Finn:''' If there's ''anything'' I've learned today, it's that I am '''[[Chick Magnet|awesome]]''' [[Chick Magnet|at talking to ladies]]. And ''lady'', you are CRAZY UGLY! Having beautiful hair isn't gonna get you ''anywhere'' because you're ugly inside ''and'' out. So ugly, I want to ''throw'' '''up'''. No one will ''ever'' find you beautiful. ''EVEEERRR''. And it has nothing to do with the old chrome-dome. ''(touches his heart)'' It has to do with what's in here.}}

* Benson from ''[[Regular Show (Animation)|Regular Show]]'' delivers a particularly nasty one to Mordecai and Rigby in "Think Positive": After trying all day to suppress his anger and not yell at them on Pops' orders, his bottled-up anger causes him to turn into a white-hot ball of fire. Once Pops gives Benson permission to yell at Mordecai and Rigby, Benson releases all his pent-up aggression the form of [[Breath Weapon|screaming blast of fire]]:

{{quote| '''Benson:''' AAAAAGH! You lazy, no-good slackers drive me ''NUTS''! Can't you just listen to me ''ONCE'' in your worthless lives? Because if you ''DID'', you'd know I'm trying to teach you some simple responsibility, some ''PRIDE'' in doing a job well-done! But you wouldn't ''KNOW'' a job well-done even if you paid someone to do it for you! But even then you'd screw it all up on the account that you can't even follow the simplest of instructions, worrying more about "looking cool" than ''doing your '''JOBS!'''''}}

* In an episode of ''[[Transformers Prime (Animation)|Transformers Prime]]'', while under the influence of a [[Psycho Serum]], [[Took a Level Inin Jerkass|Ratchet]] [[What the Hell, Hero?|fires one]] towards Optimus. He mocks Optimus for being soft for {{spoiler|losing Cliffjumper}} and for passing so many chances to get rid of Megatron once and for all. While Ratchet's judgement was impaired, it's implied he was saying what he would have normally held back.

{{quote| '''Ratchet''': "You know your problem, Optimus? For such a big, strong bot, you're soft. You didn't pound Megatron into scrap when you had the chance! Many chances, in fact!"}}

* In the ''[[My Life As a Teenage Robot (Animation)|My Life Asas a Teenage Robot]]'' episode "Dressed to Kill", [[Alpha Bitch|Brit]] gives a brief one to her designer Jean Phillipe and uses her newfound powers from her crystal gown to give him a clashing wardrobe when he demanded that her and Tiff return their gowns.

{{quote| '''Brit''': Your gowns?! These designs were our idea and without us, you're nothing! Your designs are derivative, your stitches are shoddy, and you're probably...color blind!}}

* Helga from ''[[Hey Arnold!]]'' delivers one to her mom in the episode, ''Road Trip''.
