Line 49:
** In another episode, an enemy removes 90% of the titular character's (already somewhat limited) intelligence, which just allows him to do even more things that don't make sense, such as his hair turning into miniature versions of himself that beat up said enemy.
* In ''[[Super Dimension Fortress Macross]]''/''[[Robotech]]'', this was the trope that enabled the crew of the SDF-1 to perform an extreme low altitude space-fold jump, which the enemy Zentrandi thought was impossible. The humans still barely understood a portion of the alien ship's capabilities and simply didn't know that using that system so close to a planet was considered an insane move. As it is, the human's seriously overshot their intended destination of the moon to just beyond Pluto and the stunned Zentrandi are left wondering if these supposed space warfare amateurs are actually tactical geniuses.
* In an episode of ''[[How NOTNot to Summon a Demon Lord]]'', Diablo and his [[Unwanted Harem]] of companions defeat the boss of the castle and reach a treasure room; and Horn really has to, [[Potty Emergency| well... go.]] Obviously, there's no rest room, so she finds a large chalice to do it in. Later, when all the heroes except Horn have been captured by the [[Corrupt Church]], the "goddess of leveling" appears from the chalice - it seems what she did earlier counts as the ''blood sacrifice'' needed to summon her! - and shows Horn how to [[Take a Level In Badass|increase her power enough]] to be the hero and rescue the others. Well, technically she gets hurt and convinces Diablo to [[Let's Get Dangerous| take the kid gloves off and realize the time for talk and negotiations is past]] (he and the others could have broken free and pulped the bad guys at any time) but it still fits.

* Burger King introduced the Whopper Junior - a smaller version of their trademark sandwich and biggest seller - this way. Here's how it went down: they were about to hold the grand opening of their first store in Puerto Rico, but due to a mix-up in stock orders they didn't have the molds needed to make the special buns used for Whoppers. Thus they had a choice to make: either use regular buns which would result in inferior version of the Whopper or hold their grand opening without Whoppers at all. They decided to take the first option but altered the composition a little and named it Whopper Junior. And fast-food history was made
