In the Homestar Runner short Somber Vacation, Strong Sad ends up with an embarrassing tanline that looks like he's wearing a bra. To top it off, he even shows a postcard of himself lying on the beach smiling, and yes, he is sporting the tanline.
- Then, there's Coach Z imagining his butt in Decemberween Short Shorts. Matt Chapman noted in the DVD commentary that he originally made Coach Z's buttcheeks big, round and pulsating, to his friends' disgust.
The Yu-Gi-Oh!: The Abridged Series episode "Fanservice". The episode occasionally cuts to Mai Valentine (who isn't wearing her usual jacket) yelling "FANSERVICE!" for no reason. After one of said cuts, it suddenly cuts to Bandit Keith, who decides it's time to show some of his own fanservice..."in America!" Combined with the "Oh Yeah" song from Ferris Bueller and a caption of "Ladies, he's single!", we get the single most disturbing scene of that episode, if not the entire series.
AMV Hell 0 and its sequel, AMV Hell Divided by Zero, both described by their creators as "the most sick, depraved and perverted things we have ever created".
In Salad Fingers episode four, the titular character appears shirtless, and appears to have an orgasm. However, he's green, emaciated, hairy, and creepy as hell.
If you see something sexual and/or potentially Fan Service-y in Survival of the Fittest, a good portion of the time it will be this trope. Often, it will be a rape scene, or in another way unpleasant. One of the most well-known examples include the scene where Melina Frost walks in on Beth Vandelinder masturbating, and forces her to continue, then... pretty much joins in with the help of a vase.
Ilivais X is full of this. For a Yuri Genre story about a resisting Love Freak and an Ethical Slut in their sex-fueled mecha, Iriana is something of a Creepy Child whose idea of gentle lovemaking is someone flaying her alive with a chainsaw, and the first half of Mille's Crazy Awesome is mostly established in what should be romantic scenes if it wasn't so heavily implied that she's taking advantage of how Iriana's too weak to feel like she can refuse her advances. Yes, it's a WAFF-ey romance, but it's full of very creepy sadism and rape undertones, and there's always something off about their interactions.
Who Needs Science? is a Take That to fundies who criticize science while unwittingly benefiting from scientific advances. It does so with a Captain Ersatz Becky Fischer answering trivia questions about the Bible and losing any possessions that were improved by a particular scientific discovery. At 2:52, she loses all her possessions with polyurethane in them...which includes her spandex pants.
Things Mr. Welch can no longer do in an RPG, #1328:

The very concept of a Hutt lap dancer will earn me a dark side point.

Potter Puppet Pals version of Dumbledore, in and out of universe. He's an old man puppet and he's constantly getting naked.

"Oh my God! Stay away!"

-[[File:gabesbathtime_9318.jpg|link=VG Cats|frame|Meanwhile, at Valve...]]
-== [[Web Comics]] ==
-* The ''Grim Tales From Down Below'' comic has a disturbing picture of an adult [[The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy|Mandy]], and an even more disturbing dialogue, in [https://web.archive.org/web/20141103184316/http://grim.snafu-comics.com/?comic_id=79 this strip].
-* ''[[Dominic Deegan]]'' dips into this on occasion. While ass shots of a woman who is freezing to death are fairly tame compared to the rest of this page, they're still kind of disturbing. Not to mention the ass shots of a woman after her death. Why is her ass raised like that? [https://web.archive.org/web/20150309184930/http://www.dominic-deegan.com/view.php?date=2004-03-19 Is this supposed to be regular fanservice?] May have been intended as a [[Karmic Death]].
-* ''[[Exploitation Now]]'' has a brilliant use of this. Underage Villain Jordan had been the number one request for nude fan service for the length of the story arc, but when the artist finally did so, she was being raped by a former class-mate turned pathetic wannabe villain.
-* [http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1169 This] ''[[Questionable Content]]'' starts off [[Fan Service]]-y...[[It Got Worse|and then]]...
-** Or this [http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1000 strip] which lampshades the concept of fan disservice.
-* In [https://web.archive.org/web/20190915155258/http://www.lfgcomic.com/comics/lfg0180.gif this] episode of ''[[Looking for Group]]'', we get to see under the dress of one of the main characters... {{spoiler|It's the rotting undead male warlock.}}
-* ''[[Gnoph]]'' has occasional strips where Abbey appears topless. Since Abbey is horribly malnourished, this is very disservice-y. The worst is definitely the [http://www.drunkduck.com/Gnoph/index.php?p=12724 first time], when Abbey is downright skeletal and her chest is rotting from the inside due to a bad case of [[Phlebotinum Breakdown]]. On later occasions she looks slightly better, but never enough to qualify for actual fanservice.
-** Not to mention later strips with {{spoiler|the hideous growth of insectile wings protruding from her back.}}
-* ''[[Sluggy Freelance]]'' had a [https://web.archive.org/web/20081221161116/http://beta.sluggy.com/daily.php?date=011013&mode=weekly bikini art week] that, inbetween [https://web.archive.org/web/20081221161055/http://beta.sluggy.com/daily.php?date=011008 scantily-clad beach babe Zoe] and [https://web.archive.org/web/20081221161101/http://beta.sluggy.com/daily.php?date=011010 hunky Riff], has a picture of [https://web.archive.org/web/20081221155546/http://beta.sluggy.com/daily.php?date=011009 sixty-year-old, decrepit, and speedo clad Dr. Schlock].
-** And later there's Kusari [http://www.sluggy.com/daily.php?date=081213 doing an homage to the Coppertone baby ad]. It ''would'' be just plain old [[Fan Service]], except that the dog who pulled down her pants... well, let's just say Kusari has an itchy scythe-finger.
-* Whenever there is nudity in ''[[Flipside]]'', there is about a fifty percent probability it will occur in a not at all erotic context, for example Maytag being stripped and forced into a collar by a magically-enhanced psychopath intending to rape and kill her.
-* ''[[Terinu]]'' has a lengthy sequence with Gwen dressed in an "Exotic Dancer Barbie" outfit. In the very last panel we're looking behind her and she's standing half-naked in front of two ancient aliens literally twice her size, making her appear twelve years old instead of fifteen (which would be bad enough).
-* The ''[[Oglaf]]'' webcomics where there's constant sexual situations. The catch is, half the time it's a giant spider giving head, molten hot succubis (literally), etc.
-* ''[[Drowtales]]'' has several instances of this, and given that there's an entire section of the site dedicated to unironic [[Fan Service]] the [[Fan Disservice]] stands out.
-** One page featured fan-favorite Naal'suul for part of chapter 13 [http://www.drowtales.com/mainarchive.php?order=chapters&id=809 sans-clothing] (though you can't see anything) the disservice comes from her body language and posture due to being imprisoned in a dark cell, and the fact that she's talking about the demon that already [[Mind Rape|Mind Raped]] her once and will eventually take advantage of her again and kill her.
-** Also, Kharla'ggen. She wears [[Absolute Cleavage|really low cut tops]] and is seen in a bath [http://www.drowtales.com/mainarchive.php?order=chapters&id=618 here] and [http://www.drowtales.com/mainarchive.php?order=chapters&id=733 here], but she is [[Psychopathic Manchild|completely insane with a childish personality]].
-** And again, normally Diva'ratrika naked would be pretty appealing, given that she's an unaging dark elf woman, but not when [http://www.drowtales.com/longestwait.php?order=date&id=50 she's naked because being trapped in her throne room for a year has made her start losing her mind] since she only has one slave for company and has been barely staying alive.
-** And one of the few times we see fully uncovered, uncensored breasts in the main archive is... [http://www.drowtales.com/mainarchive.php?order=chapters&id=23 on a possessed pregnant woman], whose fetus is ''reaching out of her stomach and is also possessed''. EUGH.
-** There's also the beautiful, [http://www.drowtales.com/mainarchive.php?order=chapters&id=1278 uncovered body] of {{spoiler|Sharess}}, the sexiness of which is mitigated by the fact that she's {{spoiler|a corpse}}.
-** The crowning moment so far has to be Chapter 32, which [http://www.drowtales.com/mainarchive.php?order=chapters&id=1637 opens with a love scene] between {{spoiler|Lulianne and Rek'mar}} and goes from "sweet" to "OMG WTF" in the space of a page. Thanks a lot, {{spoiler|Khaless}}.
-* In ''[[Misfile]]'', there is a shot of a very attractive female character, fully-frontally nude, with only two very, very thin panes breaks hiding her [[Nipple-and-Dimed|nipples]] and crotch. The catch? She's in the middle of a ''major'' [[Heroic BSOD]] because of that same body.
-* ''[[Penny Arcade]]''. [http://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2007/9/19/ September 19, 2007.] Tycho gives Gabe an unfortunate mental image in retaliation for [[Gushing]] about the then-upcoming ''[[Mass Effect]]'' (and more specifically, [[Everybody Remembers the Stripper|the scene that the hubbub was about]]). Of course, bothering each other with unfortunate mental images is just one of the things they do. {{spoiler|And yes, there is a reference to this later for the sequel.}}
-* In ''[[Brat Halla]]'', Baldur has difficulty getting rid of his erection after seeing several goddesses naked. Hel cures him by demonstrating [[The Undead|what she looks like below the waist]].
-* ''[[Fafnir the Dragon|Bloodsuckers Are Not Sexy]]'' gives us the ''[[Sarcasm Mode|glorious]]'' visage of {{spoiler|Stephanie Meyer in the nude}}. Gaze upon her [[Brain Bleach|AND DESPAIR!!]]
-* The ''[[VG Cats]]'' strip "Kinder Surprise" ends with a scene of Gabe Newell swimming in a pile of money, naked. Ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwww.
-* In [[General Protection Fault]], Trudy has a dream of an... intimate encounter with Nick. When all is said and done, she calls out to him as they lie on the bed naked, only for him to suddenly be replaced by Ki, then Fooker, then Nefarious, then Todd, then Chuck, then her future self. Nefarious and her future self are old and quite wrinkled, and Trudy's future self has some horrific expressions on her face.
-* ''[[Goblins]]'' has [[Cute Monster Girl]] Saves leaning into a dome that makes everything within its volume invisible. Dies gets a brief glimpse of heaven as it clips through her shirt... and then he gets a look at her internal anatomy when it clips through her face and torso.
-* In [http://wordwearycomic.blogspot.com/2012/05/24-may-2012.html this issue] of ''[[The Word Weary]]'', John, one of the protagonists is shown nude from the back as he gets changed. While in-universe it's shown that he's not a bad-looking guy, the detail of the hair on his back and buttocks is a but [[Squick|squicky.]]

 * In the ''[[Homestar Runner]]'' short ''Somber Vacation'', Strong Sad ends up with an embarrassing tanline that looks like he's wearing a bra. To top it off, he even shows a postcard of himself lying on the beach ''smiling'', and yes, he is sporting the tanline.
