{{quote|''"Ah! You can read... I mean, you are reading. Sorry. It's nice to see people reading. Not a lot of people read these days. People prefer to... hear. But all this 'hearing' is just reading for lazy people. Kids today should be prepared to pick up a book, and not just go around the whole time with all these modern... ears. Sometimes I just wanna rip people's ears off and say 'Read a book, for God's sake!'... Well, actually I'd probably say 'Read a book' first and then rip their ears off, otherwise they wouldn't hear me, hehehe... Actually, I probably wouldn't rip their ears off at all, I'm not a violent person. I like ears! Especially women ears, they're my favorite. I don't mean I collect them or anything! I don't have a big bucket of women ears hidden away somewhere. No, No, No, I'm not after your ears really. Not that there's anything wrong with your ears! You know if I ''was'' some kind of mad ear person, your ears would be the pride of my... ear bucket."''|'''Jeff''', ''[[Coupling]] -- [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v{{=}}hstPHM3R1dY "The Girl with Two Breasts"]''}}
Line 23:
''(Beat)''<br />
'''Osaka''': Huh? }}
* Happens in an [[Baker's Dozen|extra episode]] of ''[[Durarara!!]]'', when some poor sod attempts to talk down [[Hair-Trigger Temper|Shizuo]] with flattery and compares him to a really popular [[Bishonen]] actor, Yuuhei Hanejima. Unfortunately for him, said actor is actually Shizuo's little brother, whom Shizuo is ''[[Big Brother Instinct|very]]'' protective of, and he instinctively interprets the namedrop as an attempt to invade Yuuhei's privacy through him. Of course, since the poor sod doesn't know this, he just thinks Shizuo's suddenly angry because he ''hates'' Yuuhei -- soYuuhei—so he [[Like a Weasel|rescinds his previous statement and calls Yuuhei an asshole.]] The only thing surprising about [[Unstoppable Rage|what happens next]] is that the poor sod actually ''survived''.
* Early in ''[[AIR]]'', Yukito's explanation about why he was hugging Kano is like this, and leads to Hijiri getting angry and charging him with scalpels. Luckily, [[Dojikko|Misuzu's]] intervention means that Hijiri's reaction is [[Played for Laughs]].
* In ''[[The World God Only Knows]]'', Keima has an accidental pervert moment with Haqua with a [[Tsundere|predictable]] result despite him not even really caring. A bit later, he reassures her by saying he has no memory of her naked body anyway. This might help normally, only Haqua is already bothered by the way he never shows attraction to anyone or anything outside of his games. Cue getting hit again.
Line 56:
* Jim Carrey's character in ''[[Liar Liar]]'', cursed so that he [[Can Not Tell a Lie]], boards an elevator with a well-endowed woman. The first words out of his mouth are about her breasts. As he tries to cover himself, more and more lines about her rack spill out... [[Gilligan Cut]] to him leaving the elevator, having gotten well-slapped.
{{quote|'''Woman''': Everyone in the building has been so nice to me.
'''Jim''': Well, that's because you've got big jugs! [[Oh Crap|I mean, your boobs are huge.]] [[Backhanded Compliment|I mean, I want to squeeze them.]] [[Digging Yourself Deeper|I mean...]] }}
* Done rather drolly in ''[[The Great New Wonderful]]''. Pastry chef Emme, along with her assistants, is presenting a line of birthday cakes to a wealthy Park Avenue girl. The girl expresses interest in one cake, commenting on how beautiful it is. One of Emme's assistants, Justin, then chimes in with [[What an Idiot!|"And it's easy on the hips."]] Another assistant hastily bails him out by explaining that the cake is a low-density one that doesn't require a lot of processed sugar to hold it up. When he's done, Justin says [[Failsafe Failure|"That just basically means it's less fattening."]]
* Happens to Cady repeatedly in ''[[Mean Girls]]''. She refers to the phenomenon as 'word vomit'.
Line 313:
{{quote|'''Mitzi''': Uh... you stopped rowing.}}
* Used as a visual metaphor in ''[[Flying Suit Reiko]]'', when one character awkwardly confesses his FA/Feederism fetish to his girlfriend. His thought balloons have him digging a hole deeper and deeper. When she finally tells him it's okay and she likes it too, his visual metaphor is raised out of the pit by an oil geyser.
* ''[[El Goonish Shive]]'' has a character "[[Hero with an F In Good|good]]" in this - Abraham, who managed to rile Raven more with every phrase as he tried to explain himself. There are no tongue slips - everything he says is completely intentional - he just doesn't realize that he's hitting another one of Raven's [[Berserk Button|Berserk Buttons]]s with every passing sentence.
** He's absent for now, but Elliot somehow [http://www.egscomics.com/?date=2010-04-23 found] his [[Idiot Ball]].
** Tedd at least [http://www.egscomics.com/?date=2005-08-26 can catch himself].
