* Non-sexual or scatological version done by [[Deadpool]] in an issue of his first series. He meets the zombie controlling villain known as the Black Talon, and cracks up at his costume's resemblance to a chicken. After a few comments even the zombies start to giggle, leading to [http://img520.imageshack.us/f/1176727893187ew5sv7.jpg/ this] exchange:

'''Freddy''': Look at that one from Bakersfield! Ah, I got something she can bake in ''her'' field.

* In ''[[Used Cars]]'', the car dealership is doing an illegal broadcast by tapping into a football game and substituting their own commercial for the video feed. One of the car dealers has a deathly fear of red painted cars, and when they cut in the commercial and the flood lights are turned on, he realizes it's not a dark blue car, but a red one, so he says, "What the fuck is this, Rudy, a red car?" One of the technicians that arranged for the illegal tap in turns to Rudy and says, "Did he say 'fuck'? That's an FCC violation!" As if what they're already doing isn't
== Heh heh, Literature ==

* In ''36 Children'', a non-fiction account of a young teacher's year in a poor Harlem school in the mid 60's, one of piece of advice he's given by an older teacher is to skip over Emily Dickinson's poem "There Is No Frigate Like A Book", even though it's in the textbook for the English class. She warns him that he'll lose control over the class as soon as the kids hear the first line.

* The Todd on ''[[Scrubs]]''.
** In another episode, Elliot is able to indirectly identify Turk and JD over the phone because they laugh at a patient saying the word "duty".
Line 65 ⟶ 57:
** Apparently Joey also can't help invoking this trope whenever someone mentions Rachel's doctor, whose last name is Weiner.
** Joey also invokes this trope in one episode with Rachel:

'''Joey''': You said number two.
'''Rachel''': I also said number one.
'''Joey''': I know! }}
** Then there was the one where Chandler messes up a job interview when the potential employer wants to talk to him about his duties.

{{quote|
* As [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xllgk-Glxs4 this] clip from [[That '70s Show|That 70's Show]] shows, even when, initially, only one out of three people finds a word like "penal" to be funny. Repetition of the word will cause the other two to laugh in time.

* One of the characters played by Peter Moon in the Australian sketch-comedy ''[[Fast Forward]]'' was a [[Jerkass]] who would break out into laughter when the person he was talking had a suggestive name or said a word with an alternate rude meaning.
** Actually that was a character played by Michael Veitch, whereas Peter Moon played the russian news presenter who turned most things said into a double entendre.
* ''[[The Big Bang Theory]]'', "The Lunar Excitation" has Leonard giving an overview of their experiment, mentioning that the laser beam on its return would be too weak to be seen by the naked eye. Zack laughs and says, "naked". Penny unenthusiastically laughs with him and immediately drops the smile when she sees how unamused Leonard is. Leonard plays nice and agrees that it's funny.
* Used on this wiki; see [[Number Two]] for a good example.▼
== Heh heh, Music ==
* "Pinch Me" by [[Barenaked Ladies]]: "I could hide out under there/I just made you say 'underwear'..." In concert, that line often makes the audience throw underwear on stage.
** Sometimes the audience will throw underwear ''before'' the second line. If this happens, Ed sometimes sings "I just made you ''throw'' underwear" instead. ''(emphasis mine)''
== Heh heh, Newspaper Comics ==
* A ''[[FoxTrot]]'' strip references the [[Trope Namer]] when Paige, as a school reporter, asks a couple of students if they think ''[[Beavis and Butthead]]'' are realistic. Cue them doing the duo's famous laugh, followed by "...heh-heh, she said 'butt'."
* In ''[[Candorville]]'', Lemont's six-year-old lawyer makes a closing argument that repeated too many opposing points for comfort. Lemont shouts, "Get to the 'but' already!" The response is fairly age-appropriate.
* ''[[Zits]]'' discusses this in a humorous example with "Tools" (Doubles as [[Getting Crap Past the Radar]])
** A not-so-serious example was thrown in when one character's mom had breast cancer. He mentions that he's the only person their age who can say "Breast" without giggling.

== Heh heh, Western Animation ==
* ''[[Beavis and Butthead]]'' are the [[Trope Namers]], as they are known for being able to find sexual innuendo in literally ''anything''. A perfect example of this can be seen in [[The Movie]]:
{{quote|
'''Butthead:''' Uhuhuhuhuhuh, he said "anus."
'''Beavis:''' Entertain us, "ain-us". Oh, yeah
'''Mr. VanDresen:''' Did you boys hear a word I just said?
'''Butthead:''' Uhh, yeah. "Anus." }}
** Of course, there's a famous scene in the plane during the nose drive when Butthead landed in the cockpit.
** In another particularly memorable instance, the boys watch the music video for "[[King Missile (Music)|Detachable Penis]]", and proceed to snigger nonstop the whole way through, leaving the actual song barely audible.▼
{{quote|'''Pilot:''' GET THE HELL OUT OF THE COCKPIT
'''Butthead:''' Heh, Heh, You Said...
'''Pilot:''' NOW!}}
▲** In another particularly memorable instance, the boys watch the music video for "[[King Missile
** In yet another ''Beavis and Butthead'' example, in one episode the school counselor asks Beavis about his plans for the future, discussing his "duties" at work.
{{quote|
'''Butthead:''' Beavis likes all his 'duties'.
'''Beavis:''' Hehehe, yeah, yeah. Plop!
'''Counselor:''' Well great, Beavis! But what type of duty do you enjoy more than any other?
'''Beavis:''' Hmm, let's see, that's a tough one. Well, the ones that take a long time are kinda nice
'''Counselor:''' I see, so you really like to get involved?
'''Beavis:'''Oh yeah yeah.
'''Counselor:''' Get your hands dirty!
'''Beavis:''' Well yeah, sometimes.
'''Counselor:''' Something you can really sink your teeth into!
'''Beavis:''' Wait a minute...
'''Butthead:''' Whoa! You're disgusting! }}
** "No Laughing" has this in spades.
*** Really, the two could do this with about anything. One music video had them discussing shiny pants, with Beavis eventually saying "But I DO shine my pants!" and then Butt-head pointing out that he said "douche". In one special appearance for the MTV music awards, Beavis says "We're gonna be Emmy winners!", then Butt-head says "You said 'B.M.'" A few early episodes have them laughing at the term "homeowners insurance", presumably at the "homeow".
** Subverted in their 2011 return, while watching a clip of ''[[Jersey Shore]]''. Vinny yells about how much Snooki "loves hot salami", they were unimpressed with this.
** But played straight in another 2011 episode where they need to pass a standardised test to keep the school from losing its funding. The teachers spend the whole episode cramming as much as possible into their heads, and finally...
{{quote|
* [[The Simpsons (animation)|Homer Simpson]] once did this to himself, noting that he was so bashful he couldn't say "titmouse" without giggling.
** In another episode, Lisa complains to her friends that the new Malibu Stacy dolls are sexist. They start giggling, and one of them replies "Lisa said a dirty word!"
* ''[[Family Guy]]'' examples: In one episode, Chris asks Peter what he'd say about quitting the Boy Scouts. Peter replies, "I'd say, 'Come again?' And then I'd laugh 'cuz I said 'cum'."
Line 216 ⟶ 200:
*** To which she replies, "Oh my God, I did. We almost missed that one!" And then they laugh about it together, proving that marriage is a wonderful thing.
** Also when Peter and Brian are putting together a crib.
{{quote|
'''Peter:''' [[That's What She Said|That's what she--]]
'''Brian:''' If you say, 'That's what she said' one more time, I'm gonna [[Dope Slap|pop you]]. }}
** And when Peter is digging a pool in his yard:
{{quote|
'''Lois:''' What?
'''Peter:''' Diarrhea!
'''Lois:''' ''(snorting)'' Peter, I'm holding ice tea! }}
*** There's a [[Call Back]] to this one in a later episode, too:
{{quote|
** "I've thought long and hard about this..." "Hehehehe...long and hard."
** Another example of this between Chris and Peter when the Whiterumped Swallow bird is being discussed. Also doubles as [[Hypocritical Humor]]:
{{quote|
'''Peter''': This isn't funny, Chris! ''[[Beat Panel|(beat)]]'' Heheheh...swallow. }}
* "Duty/doody" in an episode of ''[[Invader Zim]]''.
* There's no actual
** Hank: "Careful, these things can be booby trapped! ...hehheh, booby."
* Two examples occur in ''[[The Penguins of Madagascar]]''.

* The New Zealand cartoon ''[[Bro Town]]'' uses this almost every time someone says anything near Valea, even if there was a more obvious one in the sentence.
* In the ''[[Dave the Barbarian]]'' episode "Rite of Pillage", Dave must pass four tests to become a real barbarian. His second test requires him to cause mayhem and destruction and ruin a few buildings. The name of the test: "[[Toilet Humor|Laying Waste]]"; Dave finds the name hilarious and tries to contain his laughter while the Pillage Master talks.

** In the episode "Spanish Fry", Lrr ('''[[Large Ham|RULER OF THE PLANET OMICRON PERSEI 8!!!]]''') wants Fry's "[[Unusual Euphemism|lower horn]]" because he thinks it's an aphrodisiac. Bender gladly takes the opportunity to turn everything into a [[Double Entendre]] (and shout "Whoo!" afterwards).
{{quote|
'''Bender:''' Just like at the movie theater! ''WHOO!'' }}
** When the crew gets sucked into a [[Beyond the Impossible|four-dimensional vortex]] in the Season 7 episode "Mobius Dick", Amy and Hermes' dialogue is played back in reverse after being spoken. Fry playfully averts this phenomenon by repeating a palindrome: poop. "Heh, heh, heh, heh! Poop!"
* Happens in [[Ed, Edd 'n' Eddy]], in the form of [[Getting Crap Past the Radar]]:

* A local radio station in Saint Louis started a contest called First of All on the morning zoo. They read a news article and you have to pick out the innuendo. Example: news story about a robbery where the robber entered through the backdoor...answer: backdoor. So, First of All: backdoor. Has caused a breakdown in normal conversation for those who listen.

* Teaching people about certain things or words that have different meaning can sometimes have this. [[Genre Savvy]] teachers may say "Okay, get your laughs out now".
** Sometimes, sheet music will abbreviate Ritardando with "Retard", and sometimes people in band will say "That's retarded" when you play something wrong.
** "Cleavage" in Geology, and "Cleavage Furrow" in Biology.
** Foreign languages sometimes have words that sound like this. For example, a common verb in Polish, "być" is pronounced as "Bitch", but it doesn't mean it.
** Or the time American biologists put together an acronym that resulted in their new protein being called SHAG, and then wondered why the British members of the audience cracked up every time they mentioned it.
** The Swedish language contains a number of these for English speakers, for instance, we have "fack" (compartment like the ones in banks, for instance), "kant" (edge), and "kock" (chef).
