Line 58:
* ''[[Duck Dodgers in the 24½th Century]]'': Duck Dodgers initially launches his rocket ship into the ground, saying he [[Trope Namer|"Had The Silly Thing In Reverse"]].
** Witch Hazel had the same problem with her broom in ''A Witch's Tangled Hare''.
** Marvin the Martian likewise "got the silly thing in reverse" when he tried to use a "Time-Space Gun" to project [[Bugs Bunny]] into the future in ''Mad as a Mars Hare''. He instead transformed Bugs into a hulking "Neanderthal Rabbit" who crushed the gun with his bare paws and then squeezed Marvin completely into his helmet.
* In the ''[[DuckTales]]'' episode "Superdoo!", two inept alien criminals are scheming to recover their stolen power crystal. One of their plots involves destroying the summer camp with an alien bazooka; unfortunately, the one holding the bazooka is holding it backwards, and it ends up destroying the dam behind them instead.
* In a ''[[Men in Black (animation)|Men in Black]]: [[The Animated Series]] episode'', J finds an alien [[Fire-Breathing Weapon|flamethrower]] and threatens the monster of the week with it. Then it turns out the weapon was really pointed at his own head, the thing he thought to be the scope really being where the flames came from. Leads you to wonder...why would a flamethrower have a ''scope''?
