* ''[[iCarly]]'' episode, '''iFind Lewbert's Lost Love''', a series of remotes is stolen and Lewbert has to deal with the newly form neighborhood watch. {{spoiler| Evidently, Lewbert wasn't the thief, but he took the blame anyways.}} His jail time meant separation from his former [[Jerkass]] for a girlfriend, Marta, which Lewbert wanted to get away from.

* In a ''[[Bloom County]]'' arc, Oliver hacks into the electric company's system and reduces his dad's bill to only a dollar. His dad scolds him, and tells him if he does it again, he'll have no glazed beets at dinner for a month. (''Then'' adds that if he does it to the phone bill, it will be ''two'' months.) Of course, he knows that glazed beets [[Stock Yuck| make Oliver throw up]], as his son quickly notes.
* In one series of ''[[Peanuts]]'' summer camp strips, Charlie Brown was called to the head counselor's office; he dreaded why, and hoped they wouldn't make him work in the kitchen and "clean out the grease trap". Instead, the staff said that his name was mentioned in the girl's camp when some commotion broke out; figuring Charlie Brown was a troublemaker, they sent him home early. To be honest, he was glad to leave early, seeing as he never liked camp, and flattered that his name had been mentioned in the girl's camp. "And best of all," he said on the bus home, [[Brick Joke| "I never had to clean out the grease trap!"]] {{spoiler| (In truth, he had never done anything wrong; the true troublemaker was Peppermint Patty, who saw the Little Red Haired Girl who he had a crush on, and felt jealous when she saw how pretty she was, presumably starting the altercation.)}}
* In ''[[The Wizard of Id]]'', Spook is given ten days in solitary for trying to escape in [http://www.gocomics.com/wizardofid/2015/01/14| this strip.] However, it seems the prison has a bit of an overcrowding problem...

* [[Bill Cosby]]'s famous "Chocolate Cake for Breakfast" joke, from his stand-up special ''Himself''. Bill's wife wakes him out of a sound and much desired sleep, at six o'clock in the morning, in order to serve his children breakfast. When his daughter comes down for breakfast, she asks for chocolate cake, which Bill deduces [[Insane Troll Logic|must be healthy, because it has eggs, milk and wheat in it]]. When his wife finds out, she flips out and sends Bill back to his room... "which is where I wanted to go in the first place. So you see, we are dumb, but [[Obfuscating Stupidity|we are not so dumb.]]"
