Line 133:
* The bully ringleader in [[Let the Right One In]], Johnny, feels this way towards the protagonist, Oskar, smashing him in the head with a piece of wood... while he and a lackey were ''throwing him into a frozen lake''. He retaliates by holding Oskar's head ''in the path of an oncoming train''. Oskar in turn retaliates by burning the bullies' school desks. Unfortunately, the scrapbook with Johnny and his [[Teens Are Monsters|older brother Jimmy's]] only photos of their father is in his desk. They respond by nearly drowning him, then preparing to ''cut out his eye''. Never once does Johnny acknowledge his horrible treatment of Oskar which drove him to this.
* ''[[The Onion]]'''s Jean Teasdale is an odd example since she does this not out of egotism but out of her [[Cloudcuckoolander|complete lack of understanding]] [[The Pollyanna|about how the real world works]], even when the evidence is right in front of her face. She got fired for browsing eBay instead of working, but she insists it's because the boss just didn't like her. In a more extreme example, another article has her talk about how a local magazine called her the worst columnist ever, and she proceeds to completely ignore the reasons they give ([[Hypocritical Humor|which she demonstrates perfectly in that very article]]) and conclude that they can't handle her sassy, in-your-face style.
* In ''[[Who Cut the Cheese?]]'' by Mason Brown, Cover successfully blames Duck for ruining a cheese depot.
