Line 1: {{trope}} [[File:~~Bowel_Breaking_Bricks_2792~~Bowel Breaking Bricks 2792.jpg\|link=Futurama\|frame\|[[Memetic Mutation\|Bricks have been shat.]]]] A [[Comedy Tropes\|Comedy Trope]] that also functions as a sort of Tension Breaker, in which a character is so shocked or surprised that [[Bring My Brown Pants\|they lose complete control of their bowels]]. Of course we don't actually see this happen, we instead get [[Stock Visual Metaphors\|a quirky little visual metaphor]] to let us know what they mean. It's a subtle way of ([[Incredibly Lame Pun\|wait for it]]) [[Getting Crap Past the Radar]]. Line 35: == [[Literature]] == * Referenced in ''1635: The Cannon Law'', one of the books in the ''[[1632]]'' ~~series -- which~~series—which has a modern West Virginian town sent back in time to 1632 Germany by [[Alien Space Bats]] (long story). Don Francisco Nasi makes this observation regarding the American town's Protestant ally, King Gustavus Adolphus of Sweden, and his possible reaction to Mike Stearns's decision to approve political sanctuary for Pope Urban VIII and his clan. His wording makes it extra hilarious. {{quote\|'''Don Francisco Nasi:''' ... I think State will be responsible for the brick that will be found, come the morning, in the privy of Gustavus Adolphus."}}
