** This trope is [http://sluggy.com/daily.php?date=060810 spoofed] in a much later stick figure filler week.
** And [http://www.sluggy.com/daily.php?date=050815 again] when two demons are talking and one makes an off-color joke.

* Parodied in ''[http://www.hello-cthulhu.com/?date=2003-12-07 The Misadventures of Hello Cthulhu]'', where Cthulhu calls Hello Kitty's parents "unspeakable beasts" for producing offspring. Which, if you consider the [[Expanded Universe]] [[Canon]], is [[wikipedia:Cthylla|built on a lie]], making it [[Hypocritical Humor]].
Line 31:
** Zexion is a governor that invaded New Jersey, stole tax dollars just to prove he could, and would rather spend the state budget on blowjobs and Doritoes...but he really hates racist pancakes. [[It Makes Sense in Context]].
* During her temporary [[Face Heel Turn]], White Mage of ''[[8-Bit Theater (Webcomic)|8-Bit Theater]]'' said she would not date Black Mage, even though she was evil.
{{quote| '''White Mage''': I may be coming to terms with the idea that I'm locked into a lifetime of spreading pain and death across the world, but I still have ''some'' standards.}}
** Garland also does this in the beginning, when Princess Sara suggests torturing the heroes of light by forcing them to listen to Cher.
** It's a little jarring to realize that [[Omnicidal Maniac|Black Mage]], of all people, is the one out of the heroes who is most commonly freaked out by the stuff his companions, most notably Red Mage, pull off.
*** That's because the stuff the others, and ''especially' Red Mage, do are [[Insane Troll Logic|crimes]] [[Logic Bomb|against]] [[Divide by Zero|logic]].
** Black Mage also manages this after he [http://www.nuklearpower.com/2004/03/20/episode-397-portents/ usurps the throne of Hell.] Fighter naturally assumes that he went to Heaven instead.
{{quote| '''Black Mage''': Even though I am the incarnation of all mortal evils, I just don't have the heart.}}
** Towards the end of the series, when they discover that even though they've grown incredibly strong throughout their journeys, Sarda flat out tells them that they'll never be a match for him, and he was still going to render their efforts nil out of spite.
{{quote| '''Black Mage''': That's ''messed up'', Sarda.}}
** Thief states that Black Mage has hit a new low when he hears his plan to get into White Mage's robes after she {{spoiler|temporarily turns "evil"}} involving what he ''thinks'' is alcohol but may be paint thinner. When the other Light Warriors point out that it'll likely kill White Mage, Black Mage simply responds that the corpse will still be warm for a little while.
{{quote| '''Thief''': That... may be the worst thing you've ever said.}}
* During the [[Christmas Carol]] arc of ''[[Brawl in the Family]]'', as Mario saves Peach, he asks if she's fine and she says that Bowser never laid a hand on her. Bowser chimes in, "Well, I'm not a monster."
* [[The Cyantian Chronicles]] features [http://cyantian.net/blog/2011/10/17/10172011/#comments Filaire], a gold fox who works for a wolf who is apparently a cannibal.
Line 60:
* In Jason Love's cartoons, other bank robbers don't approve of [http://www.jasonlove.com/cartoons/00627-funny-cartoons-robbers.gif Cherry and Serry].
* Mike from [[Shortpacked]]. He may be a [[Jerkass]] who has engaged in cruelty that [[Crosses the Line Twice|crosses the line]] [[Beyond the Impossible|seven times]], but at least he cops to it. Then he meets the aptly named [http://www.shortpacked.com/2011/comic/book-13/01-daddy-issues/asshole-2/ Asshole Guy].
{{quote| '''Mike:''' Hey, are you the asshole?<br />
'''Guy:''' Dude, I'm not an asshole. I'm just, you know, what do they call it, anti-social. [[Smug Snake|I can't help it]].<br />
'''Mike:''' You diagnosed or something?<br />
Line 71:
* Attempted by [[Triquetra Cats]] in a filler comic, which had a [[Complete Monster]] demonic serial killer suddenly break character and deliver a message about the evils of transphobia. The attempt failed miserably.
* Book 12, Part III of ''[[Schlock Mercenary]]'' has Professor Pau, a scientist who's abducting humans and using their bodies as factories for illegal blood-nannies, a process which [[Body Horror|leaves their bodies hideously bloated, discolored, and covered in blisters]] through which the final product is harvested. But while this is happening, they're kept in [[Lotus Eater Machine|full-immersion sims that leave them blissfully happy and unaware of their condition.]]
{{quote| '''Professor Pau:''' You don't think I'd hang people from the ceiling, bloat them with chemicals, harvest their blistered hides, and then '''leave them miserable,''' do you?<br />
'''Ennesby:''' [[Sarcasm Mode|Sorry. Our bad. We'll get your sainthood application processed right away.]] }}
