== Advertising ==
* One State Farm ad features a guy talking on the phone at 3 am saying "Yeah I'm married. Does it matter? You'd do that for me? I'd like that". His wife thinks he's cheating and takes the phone and asks what the person on the other line is wearing. It turns out to be a (male) State Farm agent, but she doesn't believe him. "She sounds terrible!" "Well, she's a guy, so..."
== Anime and Manga ==
* In the four-part ''[[Crayon Shin-chan
* In episode 22 of ''[[Axis Powers Hetalia]]'', Germany rushes over, apparently thinking that North Italy's brother is raping him and got "stuck", only to find that it was just a chunk of his hair...
** And from the manga we have [http://aph.starry-sky.com/files/pt10.gif this scene]{{Dead link}}, in which Japan overhears a less than innocent sounding exchange between Italy and Germany.
Line 106:
* And then there's "[https://web.archive.org/web/20110805030210/http://prismcomics.org/display.php?id=1089 The Joker's Boner]": Intentional or [[Have a Gay Old Time|not]]?
== [[Fan Works]] ==
* The amount of fan-fics based around this trope could comfortably fill their own sub-genre. It boils down to one character / group A listening in on character / group B from the next room, or hearing about what they got up to after the fact.
* Chapter 30 of ''[[A Day Indoors]]'' dials this trope—and the reactions to it—to 11, with [[Mahou Sensei Negima|Kotaro]] wondering why his flubbed lines in a rehearsal of ''Little Red Riding Hood'' leave Natsumi swooning in his arms or [[Shotacon|Ayaka]] and Chizuru getting impressive [[Nosebleed]]s.
Line 131 ⟶ 130:
* In ''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/7959357/1/YOU_CANT_TEST_THIRTEEN YOU CAN’T TEST THIRTEEN]'' while [[We Have Ways of Making You Talk|interrogating]] [[Death Note|Light]] [[Hilarity Ensues|L is misled in this way]] when Light begins describing how awesome being Kira is.
* In the ''[[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic|My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic]]'' fanfic [https://web.archive.org/web/20130813213433/http://www.fimfiction.net/story/16112/whispers Whispers], Arcanus overhears a rather suggestive conversation and [[Lampshade Hanging|muses that it's probably this trope]]. Then he investigates and finds out things are [[Subverted Trope|exactly as they sounded after all]].
== Film ==
Line 185 ⟶ 183:
{{quote|'''Duncan:''' If anyone asks where Eric went, tell them that three grown-ups took him away to teach him a lesson about sticking his fingers in things.}}
* A deleted scene in ''[[Iron Man (film)|Iron Man]] 2'' has Tony Stark at a party apparently suggesting to his [[Sexy Secretary]] that they do something rude then and there—it turns out she's wearing his repulsor glove and Stark wants her to fire it at an ice sculpture.
== Literature ==
Line 208 ⟶ 205:
* One of the characters in ''[[Low Fantasy|Shy Leopardess]]'' by Leslie Barringer sings a [[Show Within a Show|song]] about a beautiful princess and handsome lord sneaking off together; when her father and brothers pursue vengefully, and think they're hearing words of love (he exclaiming, "My queen!" and she, "My chevalier!") ... the "lovers" are found to be playing chess.
== [[Live
* The ''[[Xena: Warrior Princess]]'' episode "Altared States" uses a particularly unsubtle bit of [[Subtext]] in a scene where we see Xena and Gabrielle's clothes strewn on the bushes and hear comments such as, "How was that?" and "Very nice!". {{spoiler|It turns out that Xena is showing Gabrielle how to catch fish by hand while they swim.}}
** An even better example comes from the episode "A Comedy of Eros", in which Xena {{spoiler|and Draco's}} clothes are thrown around, and they make grunting noises as the camera pans toward them. They were wrestling. Similarily, Gabrielle {{spoiler|and Joxer's}} clothes are scattered, and Gabrielle asks to "go again". Joxer abliges. [[Makes Sense in Context|They were singing his theme song.]]
Line 274 ⟶ 271:
[[Beat]]
'''Woolsey''': ...This is where I come... to be alone with my thoughts. }}
* In the episode "The Recombination Hypothesis" of ''[[The Big Bang Theory]]'', Sheldon, Howard and Raj play ''[[Settlers of Catan]]''. To best exploit this trope, Sheldon is the one who needs lumber.
{{quote|Sheldon: Who has wood for my sheep?}}
== Music ==
Line 291 ⟶ 287:
* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eN7dYDYfvVg I CAN SWING MY SWORD!] by [[Tobuscus]]. Which is really funny because he really is talking about a sword made of diamonds...
* "Back That Thing Up" by Justin Moore starts out sounding like another [[Stuffy Old Songs About the Buttocks]], with lines such as "Back that thing up / Put it in reverse, let Daddy load it up". Then in the bridge he says, "Ain't no time to play today, no rolling in the hay". Read [http://www.the9513.com/justin-moore-back-that-thing-up/ this review] for a fuller analysis.
== [[New Media]] ==
* [[Lemon Demon]]'s "Song of the Count" turns the ''[[Sesame Street]]'' song sung by Count von Count into one of these. It places a [[Sound Effect Bleep]] over every instance of the word "Count." It's still the exact same song, but your average schlubb's thoughts on hearing it will quickly prove that [[Freud Was Right]]. That the [[Sound Effect Bleep]] used

Line 302 ⟶ 297:
** The music video for [[Lemon Demon]]'s song, [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KbDV1afDSn0 Geeks in Love] has a blink-and-you'll-miss it example: at 3:12, a [[Censor Box]] covering up the girl {{spoiler|playing foosball with}} the guy. "OMG HOTT {{spoiler|foosball}} ACTION!"
* The [[Official Fanfiction University]] of ''[[Redwall]]'' had a scene like this which turned out to be a boy getting a tattoo.
== Radio ==
Line 310 ⟶ 304:
{{quote|See John run. Run, John. Run.}}
* Used by Canadian radio personalities Mad Dog and Billie in a contest to see who had the strongest stomach for weird food. She brought tongue, he brought pickled bulls' testicles. ("I sucked your tongue, you have to lick my balls!")
* ''The [[Doctor Demento Show]]'' is full of songs with innocent innuendoes. One that comes to mind is "Davy's Dinghy" by Ruth Wallis, which turns out to be about a boat.
* In an episode of ''[[Hello Cheeky]]'', this is done in ''one sentence'', with the title of a parody song given as ''I Wanna Give It To You, Babe, But I Can't Get It Down Off The Wardrobe''.
== Theatre ==
Line 319 ⟶ 312:
'''Barnes''': Now, which one of you is the Madam?
'''Ella''': That's Madame Rosina Grimaldi, the opera star, and I happened to recommend a mustard plaster to her for a cold, and this friend of hers--Ohhhh! Have ''you'' got a ''dirty'' mind! }}
== Video Games ==
* If you check some books in the Library in ''[[Nine Hours, Nine Persons,
{{quote|'''Clover''': It says "[[wikipedia:Riemann hypothesis|Riemann Hypothesis]]". What is there to hypothesize about with a reamin'? Isn't it pretty straightforward?
{{spoiler|'''Snake'''}}: Heaven's no. There are many factors -- Length,girth,lubrication or lack of... It's an exciting and rapidly growing field.
Line 353 ⟶ 345:
'''Phoenix''': "Maybe I should ask more about Max's bust...Not that I'm into that kind of thing..." }}
== Web Comics ==
* The page picture comes from [http://crfh.net/d/20040921.html this strip] of ''[[CRFH]]'', when Marsha [[Mistaken for Gay|suspects that Mike is pretending to be gay in order to break up with her.]]
* In ''[[Twice Blessed]],'' Cade Masters ruins Melchior's chances with a very attractive barmaid when he innocently mentions Melchior's troubles with his Rod of Wonder.
Line 362 ⟶ 353:
** Though the first example is subverted when Haley adds "V says Elan has been running around naked, so I'm off to see what his 18 Charisma is worth under the hood.' "
** [http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0269.html "Slipping the wood" to some dryad hussy] might count as a [[Double Subversion]], as the incident in question is treated as being just as bad as if it ''had'' been in that way.
* Another example, in [https://web.archive.org/web/20090204095647/http://nuklearpower.com/daily.php?date=010921 this] episode of ''[[8-
** Then there's the installment where Red Mage [http://www.nuklearpower.com/2009/06/13/episode-1140-where-the-sun-dont-shine/ hides the team from Sarda in his A-hole.] It is also entirely accurate to say that they are in his [http://www.nuklearpower.com/2009/06/16/episode-1141-how-deep-does-the-a-hole-go/ B-hole.]
** As well as a fairly good percentage of the things Red Mage says. "There is no problem that can't be solved by creative and vigorous use of animal husbandry!"
* Parodied in ''[[Bigger Than Cheeses]]'' ([http://www.biggercheese.com/index.php?comic=418 NWS link]) and ''PVP'': when a character overhears a conversation that sounds like two people having sex, the [[Genre Savvy]] eavesdropper displays awareness of this trope and avoids leaping to conclusions, only for it to be revealed that the overheard characters genuinely were having sex.
** ''[[PvP (webcomic)|
** ''[[Femmegasm]]'' [http://www.aorange.com/?p=167 gets in on it too.]
* Another example is [http://flakypastry.runningwithpencils.com/comic.php?strip_id=90 this] ''[[Flaky Pastry]]'' strip.
Line 413 ⟶ 404:
* ''[[Dumbing of Age]]'' gives us this [http://www.dumbingofage.com/2012/comic/book-2/02-choosing-my-religion/holes-2/ little bit of dialogue.]
* ''Lowroad'' got a [http://lowroad75.comicgenesis.com/d/20091025.html story] Giselle narrates to her Butler, that starts with a guy screaming "nice ass", and goes downhill fast. "For some reason [[Dating Catwoman|father Maguire]] looked extremely uncomfortable when I told him what happened."
== [[Western Animation]] ==
Line 463 ⟶ 453:
{{quote|'''Gimpy:''' You must master your joystick like a fisherman [[A Worldwide Punomenon|masters]] [[A Date with Rosie Palms|bait]].}}
* In the ''[[Phineas and Ferb]]'' episode "The Remains of the Platypus", there is a scene where it is made to look like Perry (who was transformed into a butler) was shaving Doofenshmirtz's groin area... except the camera zooms out and we see Doof with a towel and Perry is shaving his legs.
