Lampshades hung in web animation.
- This happens a lot in Homestar Runner. For example, Strong Bad has referred to Homestar as a no-armed whitey with a speech impediment, and seems to be the only character aware that everyone (except him) is walking around with no pants on.
Homestar: What awe you talking about, Stwong Bad? I weaw wong pants. |
- Perhaps most present in the "Compy Catalog" short; the catalog contains several examples of Videlectrix's poor communication skills, which are immediately lampshaded by Strong Bad. One involves an attempt to turn "Same" into a color.
Catalog: The Roomy-Vac is a real powerHOUSE... get it? Oh, you don't? Well, because it's the size of a... Oh, you were kidding? You do get it? Pretty good, huh? No? |
- Red vs. Blue loves its lampshades, many of the FPS genre and Halo specifically, such as the following quote from Church while pinned down behind a rock by fire from a chaingun mounted on a Warthog: "Don't worry, that thing's got to run out of ammo sometime." It never, ever does.
- Of course, they're not above lampshading themselves either. A good example is Church noticing the episode timing:
"How is it that something dramatic happens every five minutes? Come on, I can´t be the only one who noticed that!" |
- A Final Fantasy parody lampshades what is a phoenix down, and during that time, there was no ingame description what it looks like.
- Another sect of the parody shades on FF7's Dialogue.
Tidus: "Excuse me, Cloud, we aren't in 90. We can speak now" |
- RWBY has a great one about the Dramatic Wind.
Penny: It sure is windy today. |
