=== Fictional Examples: ===
 
* In ''[[Sabrina Online (Webcomic)|Sabrina Online]]'', Sheila does this when Sabrina gives a lukewarm review of ''[[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic|My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic]]''.
* On ''[[Family Guy]]'', the Griffin family tears Peter a new one after he announces that he didn't care for ''[[The Godfather]]''. It's based on the typical reaction to [[Seth MacFarlane]] saying the same.
* In ''[[ICarlyiCarly]]'', Freddie saying he doesn't think [[Fred]] is that funny results in him [[Disproportionate Retribution|losing every friendship he has and being ostracised from every club, his family calls up to abuse him, and in the end is beaten up by Sam with a tennis racquet and forced to directly apologize to Fred]].
** To be fair though, his comments did cause Fred to stop putting up new videos...
*** Except Fred did this as a publicity stunt to gain more views when he eventually came back. He claimed it would help iCarly too, but he ''didn't even tell them the plan'' (at least then Freddie would have had Sam and Carly on his side) until after Freddie was beaten with said racquet. So he actually [[Invoked Trope|weaponized this trope]] to gain more popularity than ever.
