* A U.S. Acres segment on ''[[Garfield and Friends]]'' plays with this. When reading a book, Orson's imagination gets away with him so badly that it impacts what everyone ''else'' perceives in the world around him. As Orson pulls out a book on the frozen north, he wonders to himself if he'll read about penguins. At this point, a penguin toddles up to Wade, who decides to pet it.
