* In ''[[I Put On My Robe and Wizard Hat]]'', ''why'' exactly does {{spoiler|Urobuchi}} Shirou piss off Lancer—who's trying to ''kill'' him—by forcing a download of dog porn directly into his brain?
{{quote|'''Shirou''': I did it... for the lawlz...}}
* In ''[[Tiberium Wars]]'', this is the entire reason why [[Dark Messiah|Kane]] has Nod's facilities lit with dim red lights. He finds his minions' constant stubbing of toes and banging of shins against consoles to be ''hilarious''.
* Almost everything that [[Harry Potter|Harry]] {{spoiler|and Sirius}} do in ''[[Oh God, Not Again|Oh God Not Again]]'' is for this purpose.
* In ''[[With Strings Attached]]'', Brox, Grunnel, and As'taris are sadistic practical jokers. Brox's given name is, in fact, “Funny.” (The four would violently disagree with this.) Much of what Brox does is at least partially [[For the Lulz]]. Even Grunnel, who is genuinely fond of the four (at least, they're not his enemies), pulls some fairly nasty shit on them, including making them climb a hundred-foot staircase and not bothering to warn George that Ma'ar is a nympho or of her, um, tendencies during sex.
{{quote|George: I think she carved her name in me back with her fingernails.
Grunnel: Sar uses a knife on me. }}
* [[Methods of Rationality]]!Quirrell: It has sometimes amused me to play the part of a hero.
* In the chapter "Surprise Box" of the ''[[RWBY]]'/''[[The Gamer]]'' crossover ''[[The Games We Play (RWBY fanfic)|The Games We Play]]'' by Ryuugi, Jaune Arc (in his guise as the godlike tiger Faunus and martial artist Jian Bing) abruptly appears in a transport carrying General Ironwood, Professor Polendina and [[Robot Girl|Penny]]. When he explains that he's there to talk to them, not attack them, Ironwood demands to know why he's bothering.
{{quote|"What about the entertainment value?" I asked him, giving him an enigmatic smile. "Perhaps it simply amuses me to do so?"}}
