* Ralph makes this mistake in ''[[Sandra and Woo]]'' after being told by a schoolmate that he should really, really not bully Cloud, especially if Cloud is currently carrying a sword... or a plastic knife from the school cafeteria.
* ''[[Sinfest]]'' had Seymour, the resident Christian [[The Fundamentalist|Fundamentalist]] [[Knight Templar]], under a fit of [[Fantastic Racism]], antagonize [http://www.sinfest.net/archive_page.php?comicID=3663 Fuchsia], a devil girl in the midst of a [[High Heel Face Turn]] for her [[Interspecies Romance]] with Criminy.
