Line 123:
* [[Lampshaded]] in an episode of ''[[Flight of the Conchords]]'' when the agent says "What's that emotion that makes you go 'RRRRRRRR'?"
* Illyria of ''[[Angel]]'' often demonstrates this. Being an [[Eldritch Abomination|ancient demon]] bound into the body of a human, she lacks the understanding of human expressions and even the underlying emotions, making her unable to emote properly.
* [[Jerkass Woobie|Vorenus]] on ''[[Rome]]''. "It saddens me that you are unhappy, because I have a deep affection for you." He says this to his wife while wearing his [[Mangst|Glower of Emotional Inadequacy]], which is subtly distinct from his [[Not So Above It All|Glower of Doing What He's Got to Do]], [[Black and Grey Morality|Glower of Moral Disgust]], [[Action Film, Quiet Drama Scene|Contemplative Glower]], [[Kubrick Stare|Glower of Pure Rage]], and [[The Gump|Glower of Realizing Something Is Occurring Which Will Turn the Tide of History]].
* [[Frasier]], in damn near every episode. It makes sense though, since two of the main characters are psychiatrists, leading them to constantly discuss their feelings with each other, as well as encouraging everyone else to do the same. Frasier himself, being particularly self-absorbed, brings this trope to staggering heights.

Line 284:
** In "Hurricane Neddy", as Ned Flanders is [["The Reason You Suck" Speech|chewing out his neighbors]], he turns to Bart:
{{quote|'''Bart:''' Hey, back off, man!
'''Ned:''' [[Sarcasm Mode|Okay,]] [[Totally Radical|duuuuuuuude! I wouldn't want you to have a cow, maaaaaaaaaan.]] Here's a catchphrase you better learn for your adult years: "Hey, buddy, '''''GOT A QUARTER?'''''"!
(''everyone gasps'')
'''Bart:''' I am shocked and appalled. }}
** Employed masterfully by mobster Fat Tony, who is so obsessed with coming off as [[Wicked Cultured]] that he articulates his every thought in absurdly precise language - and boy, is it ever chilling. ("I am not so much disappointed, as I am ''blinded by rage''.")
