Line 40:
** To explain why, the general had put together a cell of middle eastern terrorists and sent them on a plane, which they were to hijack. The plane was then blown up by the Russians, killing the US funded terrorists and the innocent people aboard. Don't worry, he and his associates get a better punishment for it later.
* Any issue of ''[[The Beano]]'' in days gone by would have included at least two instances of this.
* [[Donald Duck]] in the [[Disney Ducks Comic Universe|comics]] doesn't have a belt, but he'd often chase his nephews with a stick.
** Used to, anyway. This is practically nonexistent in the modern strips, and these days the boys aren't in need of this kind of treatment anyway, being usually more competent and mature than their uncle.
* The comic ''[[Love and Rockets]]'' have several kinky references to Hot Wheel tracks.
Line 85:
* Bernie from ''[[The Bernie Mac Show]]''
* Pops from ''[[The Wayans Bros]]''
* Alf Stewart in ''[[Home and Away]]'' when Duncan pushed him too far in a 2001 episode.
* Parodied in ''[[Blackadder]] the Third''. Edmund tells Mr. Hardcastle that the Prince wants his daughter for his wife. Hardcastle, misunderstanding, responds:
{{quote|"Well his wife can't have her! Mind, sir, or I shall take off me belt, and by thunder, me trousers shall fall down!"}}
* Logan from ''[[Veronica Mars]]'' even has to get the belt himself, at his age! Just shows how much his father is a [[Complete Monster]].
* James from ''[[Good Times]]'', usually to youngest son Michael (to get him off his soapbox).
** Played with in one episode where Michael would rather take the belt than apologize for what he said to his teacher. James was reluctant to hit him too.
* Done between adults in ''[[The Sopranos]]'' when Tony uses his belt to hit his corrupt congressman lackey for sleeping with his mistress. Even though he had (apparently) okayed it earlier.
* In at least one episode of ''[[The Andy Griffith Show]]'', specifically, "Mr. Mc Beevee." Opie is accused of stealing a quarter, and refuses to concede that Mr. Mc Beevee (a telephone lineman, who gave the coin to Opie) is imaginary, and Andy makes an implied threat that if Opie doesn't bend, he could face a whipping. The incident is averted when Andy decides he needs to believe his son.
* ''[[Little House on the Prairie (TV series)|Little House On the Prairie]]'': Set in an era where whippings as parental punishment were common. Although a few episodes featured abusive parents mercilessly whipping their children (including one where orphans James and Cassandra Cooper ultimately come to live with the Ingalls), two episodes included incidences where whippings are depicted as proper fatherly discipline. When Nels Olesen grabs a belt to punish his spoiled daughter, Nellie (usually, after Nellie committed a particularly humiliating prank on Laura), the whippings are not depicted onscreen, but Nellie's screaming can be heard off-screen as she is being lashed .
