* Lampshaded on ''[[The Spoony Experiment]]'' during his ''Phantasmagoria'' review. During one scene when ominous music is playing, he sings (with the music) "Cubicle isn't scary!" Also during very boring scenes the Spoony One will shout "PHANTASMAGORIA! PUZZLE OF THE FLESH!"

{{quote|Think about it. What's more ridiculous than dozens of internet strangers voting on the river-crossing status of a fictional family based on an educational game that was created 30 years ago? Haiku about it.}}
* [[Ask That Guy With The Glasses|Only if served]] *[[Also Sprach Zarathustra]] plays as a sign reading [[Catch Phrase|With Onions]] is slowly raised, to uproarious applause*
* [http://pottersues.livejournal.com/505385.html?thread=48739881 This] [[
* Celebrity gossip blog [http://www.justjared.com Just Jared] writes breathless, awestruck stories about celebrities doing mundane things. Activities such as grocery shopping, taking their kids to school, doctor's visits and going to Subway for lunch are presented as being so much more amazing than normal because reality show contestants and bottom tier celebrities are doing them.

* [[Retro Game Master]], a translation of a Japanese TV show, can get into this pretty often. It's about a guy trying to complete classic NES-era games in single playthroughs. The commentary translation sounds very literal, which in English tends to result in some... interesting emphasis. [[Large Ham|MIGHTY BOMB JACK]], anyone?
* [[Desert Strike]]: Return to the Gulf - [http://youtu.be/c86tJltW9gw Epic Version]. The Very True, Incredibly Epic and Completely Heroic story of how Lieutenant G.W. Bush won the first gulf war. "Take That, Iraqistan!". Megadrive game updated with a Big Damn Score by some of Hollywood's finest.
