Line 64:
* Referred to as a "two-bicep discount" in ''[[The Bloody Nipple Saga]]''.
* Due to the [[Four-Fingered Hands|art style]], [[Loveable Rogue|Haley Starshine]] of the ''[[The Order of the Stick|Order of the Stick]]'' once refers to this as the [[Lampshade Hanging|three-finger discount]].
* ''[[Batman and Sons]]'' does this with "Don't Mess with Bats." After a bad day which gets Batman snarky, he gets on the nerves of Jesse Quick, Hourman and Dr. Mid-Nite by showing his hands "are quicker than" their eyes: he snatches Jesse's top while she runs at him, he gets Hourman's hourglass while he's making his threat (and he suddenly sees it's gone and on Batman, who goes "Tick Tock"), and he gets Dr. Mid-Nite's goggles, rendering him unable to see—and running into a tree.
* In [http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=655140&pool_id=81 this strip] of ''[[Life of Maid]]'', Marisa, being... well, [[Kleptomaniac Hero|Marisa]], decides to indulge in a spot of shoplifting, making off with a basket full of goods from Rinnosuke's store. Unfortunately for Marisa, Sakuya has just applied for a part-time job there in order to make up for the Scarlet Devil Mansion's expenses, and finds it [[Time Stands Still|quite easy]] to get Rinnosuke's goods back.
* Early on in ''[[Newheimburg]]'', Jack wanders around Newheimburg's World Fair and snatches 20 bucks off of a complete stranger.
* ''[[Freefall]]'' had Sam Starfall the "larcenous squid" taking [http://freefall.purrsia.com/ff3100/fc03093.htm a little four fingers discount] (those are bundles of tentacles, but he wears gloves) often, though sometimes it doesn't work, and sometimes ends in something strange.
