{{examples|Examples}}
 
== [[Anime]] and [[Manga]] ==
* In ''[[Jo JosJo's Bizarre Adventure (Manga)|Jojo's Bizarre Adventure]]'', Joseph Joestar and Mohammed Abdul become stuck together by [[Monster of the Week|Mariah's]] magnetic powers. [[Hilarity Ensues]].
* Early in the series ''[[Inuyasha]]'', Kagome tries to dress the wounds that Inuyasha took in the previous episode, but he insists he's fine and refuses to take off his shirt to let her see. Moments later Kaede walks by with a ''group of kids'' as Kagome is sitting on Inuyasha's chest demanding that he take his clothes off.
 
Line 31:
== [[Real Life]] ==
* Outdoor humorist [[Patrick McManus]] comments in one of his stories that if you're hopelessly lost in the wilderness, the surest way to be rescued is to do something incredibly embarrassing and/or take off all your clothes. People will be drawn to your location like a magnet.
* There is a story told by a comedian (so actual events will vary) where a train is traveling through [[Acceptable Targets|Wales]] and a man is, well, you know, [[But You Screw One Goat!|shagging a sheep]] right next to the rail tracks. Somebody complained and the police where called and they found the man in the same spot, you think he would have moved.
* And then there's the classic urban legend about a guy who decides to be a jerk and throw his annoying cat at the window. The cat digs its claws into the curtains and its falling brings the curtains crashing down, rod and all. There is a group of now horrified children passing by right at that moment.
