* Episode 10 of ''[[Dragonball Z Abridged]]'' ends with this following gem:
{{quote| '''Vegeta:''' They've broken my body... I've failed in my mission to get the Dragon Balls... I've even lost my tail... But at least, it can't get any worse from here... <br />
'''{{spoiler|Ghost Nappa}}:''' Vegeeeetaaa... Vegeeeetaaa... <br />
'''Vegeta:''' W-What? <br />
'''{{spoiler|Ghost Nappa}}:''' {{spoiler|I'm haunting you!}} <br />
'''Vegeta:''' [[Big No|NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooo!]] }}
** That happened more than once in episode 10...
{{quote| '''Goku:''' He's getting huge. That means he'll only be stronger. That means [[Mighty Glacier|he won't be as fa]]--[[Lightning Bruiser|OH GOD HE'S STILL AS FAST!]]}}
** Also from episode 10 of ''DBZA'':
{{quote| '''Krillin:''' We won't ever have to see him again!<br />
''(Vegeta falls next to Krillin)''<br />
'''Krillin:''' ... ''alive'' again. I meant we won't ever have to see him ''alive'' again!<br />
''(naturally, Vegeta is alive)'' }}
** In Episode 18, Vegeta brags to Goku that besides [[Big Bad|Freeza]] he's the most powerful being on the planet. Cue the [[Beware the Silly Ones|Ginyu Force]] showing up.
Line 22:
* ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh!: The Abridged Series|Yu-Gi-Oh! The Abridged Series!]]'' utilizes this for humor on a few occasions:
** On the way to the blimp:
{{quote| '''Tristan:''' I sure hope we don't encounter any more intrusive subplots.<br />
'''[[Filler Villain|Jean Claude Magnum]]:''' Did somebody say "intrusive subplot"?<br />
'''Tristan:''' Oh, son of a bitch! }}
** On the blimp:
{{quote| '''Doctor:''' I'm glad I have such a long and villain-free life ahead of me.<br />
'''Melvin:''' Hi there. Could I get a hug?<br />
'''Dr. Feelgood:''' A hug? Sure, I don't see why not. ''(the sounds of chainsaw revving can be heard)'' Oh my god, it burns, it burns! }}
* From the very first song of ''[[A Very Potter Musical]]'':
{{quote| '''Harry:''' No way this year anyone's gonna die!}}
* In ''[[Kyon: Big Damn Hero]]'' Kyon named his PDA [[Terminator|Skynet]]. It's made from some of Asakura Ryoko's data, so it's capable of learning.
** Koizumi muses that he's the most normal among the extended SOS Brigade. He soon gets an upgrade to his [[ES Per]] powers.
* [http://browse.deviantart.com/?qh=§ion=&q=sonic+warhammer#/d2t06cm This Sonic fanart].
* In this [[Let's Play]] by [[Azureblade 49]], a choice quote that goes well with this trope:
{{quote| '''Azura:''' ''(Mario lands on safe ground)'' I'm alive!<br />
''(Mario dies)''<br />
'''Azura:''' I'm dead! }}
* In the 26th video of [[Ultra J Man]]'s [[Let's Play]] ''[[I Wanna Be the Guy]]'', he is still angry {{spoiler|for a previous crash he had}}, and he declares {{spoiler|"I get to the end, I beat The Guy, and it fucking crashes. That's how it's gonna end!"}} '''Guess what happens.'''
* ''[[Profound Moments in Left 4 Dead 2]]'': "I'm gonna do this entire campaign with 1 HP and beat the shit out of everything with a first aid kit."
* The second part of the last episode of ''[[Vision of Escaflowne Abridged]]''.
{{quote| '''Dornkirk:''' You can't destroy it you silly girl! It's protected by causality itself! There isn't a force in the world that can possibly destroy it.<br />
''([[Dynamic Entry|Van]] [[Big Damn Heroes|smashes]] through)''<br />
'''Dornkirk:''' ... except for that. }}
Line 51:
* In [[A Hero]], the second chapter has Dalek Sec watching Homura battle Walpurgisnacht from afar, and concluding that the Witch isn't looking his way, and wouldn't attack him. Fortunately, Sec's [[Genre Savvy]] enough to realize what he just did, which gives him just enough time to learn that a horde of familiars are heading his way.
* This is referenced in ''[[The Man qith No Name (fanfic)|The Man With No Name]]'' while some characters are infiltrating the enemy stronghold. {{spoiler|It ultimately ends up subverted, however; despite the Doctor's expectations, nothing of the sort happens}}.
{{quote| '''Inara''': They seem to be expecting an auditor.<br />
'''The Doctor''': Good. No one will get too fussed when we go about asking nosy questions then.<br />
'''Inara''': As long as the ''real'' auditors don't show up, we should be alright.<br />
'''The Doctor''': *''winces''* Oh, did you ''have'' to say that? [[Genre Savvy|Now they're bound to turn up. I swear, everyone has to go and jinx it all, saying things like 'It can't possibly get any worse' or 'Ooh, it's unsinkable!']] }}
* In the ''[[Katawa Shoujo]]'' fic ''[[Lilly Epilogue (Good End): Family Matters|Lilly Epilogue Family Matters]]'', Hisao narrates that "Considering that just one year ago I probably felt like the most pathetic sap on the planet, things are definitely looking up. Everything just feels right with the world." In the next scene, he finds out that his girlfriend Lilly's parents are coming to visit, prompting him to think ''"[[Oh Crap|Oh]] [[Precision F-Strike|fuck]]"''.
