Everything Makes a Mushroom: Difference between revisions

* In ''[[The Simpsons (animation)|The Simpsons]]'', Sideshow Bob take Bart and Lisa hostage next to a 50's A-bomb. His demands are refused, he pushes the detonator, and a mushroom cloud explodes... before the camera pans out to reveal the cloud is, at most, two inches tall. Sideshow Bob then comments that "he HAD to go for the retro charm".

* In the episode "The Desert" of ''[[Avatar: The Last Airbender]]'', Aang's airbending makes a mushroom cloud. [[Plucky Comic Relief|Sokka]], who is [[Intoxication Ensues|tripping on cactus juice]], reacts hilariously:

* In the ''[[Futurama]]'' episode "Insane in the Mainframe", Malfunctioning Eddie is in the robot asylum because he explodes whenever he is told something surprising. When he's told he's being released, everyone tenses for an explosion, but all that happens is a tiny mushroom cloud erupts from his shoulder.

* Since [[Made of Explodium|anything and everything]] explodes when thrown or handled roughly in ''[[Aqua Teen Hunger Force]]'', mushroom clouds occasionally add a bit of emphasis.
