** Repeating? Ranma's father actually does some freestyle DJing with it.
** Akane wakes Ranma up from unconsciousness after he [[Taking the Bullet|takes the brunt]] [[Crowning Moment of Heartwarming|of an attack]] that slammed him into a wall [[Made of Iron|hard enough to shatter every bone in a normal person's body.]]

Line 37:
== Comic Books ==
* In the ''[[Tintin (Comic Book)]]'' story "[[Tintin (Comic Book)/Recap/Destination Moon|Destination Moon]]", Captain Haddock cures Professor Calculus' accidental amnesia by complaining about "acting the goat", a remark that had earlier served as a [[Berserk Button]] for Calculus.
* An isue of [[Batman Gotham Adventures]] has [[The Joker]] given a radical form of shock treatment that renders him non-violent, good natured, and even affectionate to [[Harley Quinn (Comic Book)|Harley Quinn]]. She can't stand him being this way, and declares that she is leaving him for Batman. Whereupon Joker snaps back to his usual psychopathic self and declares that he'll just have to rip Batman's lungs out.
Line 56:
* On an episode of ''[[JAG]]'', a Marine in a coma is awoken by an angry bedside tirade from his Drill Sergeant.
* [[NCIS]] does this in reverse - Ziva manages to restore Gibbs' memory by grabbing his hand and inflicting his trademark [[Dope Slap]] on herself.
* In ''[[Firefly]]'', when Wash is starting to lose it under [[Cold
* An episode of ''[[Full House]]'' featured Joey listening to self-help tapes and being so into them that the only way to snap him out of it was to pull back his headphones and insult him.
* [[Top Gear|Jeremy Clarkson]] ''claims'' that the first real sign of life from co-presenter Richard Hammond after his accident was when he visited him in hospital and told him that the reason he was in that state was because he was a crap driver. Apparently Hammond smiled.
Line 74:
* In ''[[The B Movie Comic (Webcomic)|The B Movie Comic]]'', the [[Elegant Gothic Lolita]] was hypnotized by the [[Big Bad]] using [[Functional Magic]]. When her friends rescued her, they needed to wake her up in a hurry. By ''[[Contrived Coincidence|pure coincidence]]'', the [[The Ditz|dumb jock]] [http://www.bmoviecomic.com/index_0076.html commented on her breasts]. It resulted in a [[Hyperspace Mallet]], but at least it worked.
* [[Axis Powers Hetalia (Manga)|Eng]][[Moe Anthropomorphism|land]] is dying, with [[Love Freak|America]] by his side tearing up and whispering his name while the [[Grim Reaper]] stands behind him. As England gives his "I never hated you" speech to America, which is cut short by his apparent death, it takes America a few seconds before patting the grim reaper on the back and saying [[Mood Whiplash|"He's FINALLY dead!"]] It turns out to be a way to bring him back from death's door.
* In ''[http://antiheroforhire.com/ Antihero for Hire]'', the Action Girl was accidentally [[Insulted Awake]] from a [[Mind Probe]] when [[The Rival]] [[Anti
* In ''[[El Goonish Shive (Webcomic)|El Goonish Shive]]'', Ellen roused [[Straw Feminist|Susan]] from a stupor by expressing a misogynistic sentiment, providing the image for this page. And that's after [http://www.egscomics.com/?date=2003-07-03 her first attempt] failed.
* A non-verbal example, when Joe from ''[[Its Walky]]'' meets Joyce for the first time in a year she has no idea who he is thanks to a mindswipe. When she asks if she knows him he restores her memory by promptly slamming a door in her face, something he had done often in college to get her to leave.
** Mike does this to a [[Brainwashed and Crazy]] Tony. Oddly, even after saying he dug up his mother's corpse just to violate it (among other things), Tony doesn't snap out of it until [[Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking|Mike calls him a loser]].
* ''[[Blip]]'' [http://blipcomic.com/622/ did it] with a witch and ''[[Harry Potter]]'' reference.
* ''[[Gunnerkrigg Court (Webcomic)|Gunnerkrigg Court]]'' had a moment when Zimmy stuck in her nightmares after mental contact with comatose Antimony gets a bright idea and says "[[Berserk Button|your dad]]'s a jerk!". Success! Except that Annie ''doesn't'' wake up fully, but turns out to be capable of {{spoiler|[[Mind Over Matter|telekinetically]] hurling poor Zimmy [[Punched Across the Room|across the room]]}} even in this state. Which may be better than getting caught by creepy [[The Blank|Nobodies]] anyway.
Line 88:
== Western Animation ==
* In one episode of ''[[Teen Titans (Animation)|Teen Titans]]'', they repeatedly snapped Beast Boy out of Mad Mod's hypnotism by making him laugh. In the end, it looked like he'd finally succumbed for good -- until Raven made a cleverly barbed joke about his intelligence. It was laughter that awoke him, but then he realized what she'd said and was promptly insulted.
* This happens to Nigel Uno a lot in ''[[Codename Kids Next Door]]''. As one example, on being stranded on Rainbow Monkey Island for a long time, he ended up [[Going Native]]... until someone told him he had gone through all that for a keychain. He ''immediately'' returned to normal and [[Rant
* The plot of an episode of the ''[[Super Mario Brothers Super Show]]'' revolved around an escalating argument between the brothers, and, to get at Mario, Luigi snapped Mario's suspenders back, pulled his [[Nice Hat|cap]] down, and plucked his moustache so hard it curled upwards. Later, Mario fell under a hypnotic tech-induced Koopa Trance, leaving it up to Luigi to save him. When the inevitable [["I Know You're in There Somewhere" Fight]] between them ended up not actually breaking the trance, Luigi simply repeats what he did to Mario earlier, bringing him back by eliciting the same response as he'd gotten earlier:
