== [[Live Action TV]] ==
* An episode of ''[[Law and& Order (TV)|Law and Order]]'' in which the Israeli struggle is used as an excuse for murder features this in spades. The defense witnesses go on and on about the conflict (in front of a majority Jewish jury -- the prosecution got blindsided), and Jack McCoy just lets them rant, finally ending with "Are you finished?" before continuing his cross-examination. {{spoiler|1=It doesn't work; McCoy hammers home that the defense is a smoke-screen, winning the case.}}
* This was used in the ''[[Star Trek: Deep Space Nine]]'' episode "The Search, Part II", when things start going to hell during the Federation-Dominion peace process. Sisko bursts into the room where the Federation admiral and the Dominion representative are.
{{quote| '''Sisko''': I want to know what the ''hell'' is going on!<br />
'''Necheyev''': Commander, I don't appreciate your barging in here...<br />

== [[Theater]] ==
* In [[Euripides]]' dramatic adaptation of the ''[[Medea (Theatre)|Medea]]'' myth, Jason <s>coldheartedly</s> rationally tries to explain to his [[Magical Girlfriend]] why dumping her and marrying Creon's daughter is the most practical option for him, nothing personal, she can accept that maturely, right? Her response: "Have you finished now?" Anyone not sympathize with her becoming a [[Woman Scorned]] now?

== [[Western Animation]] ==
* In the episode of ''[[The Simpsons]]'' when Homer became a boxer, his strategy consisted entirely of being beaten until his opponent became too tired. Then he fought Drederick Tatum, a Mike Tyson expy. It didn't work.
* In an episode of ''[[FostersFoster's Home for Imaginary Friends]]'', Wilt spends most of the episode getting [[Missing the Good Stuff|distracted from watching the big game]] by his [[Emotionally Tongue-Tied|inability to say "no"]] because various people keep asking him to do menial tasks. He remains calm even after being sidetracked to the point of having to break out of jail (twice!) and repair a spaceship in orbit, but when Bloo has the audacity to stomp the bowl of chips Wilt brought him into the carpet because they aren't salt and vinegar flavored, Wilt finally [[Rant-Inducing Slight|snaps and shouts "no" over and over again]] until he's exhausted. Finally:
{{quote| '''Bloo:''' [[Are You Done Yet|Are you done yet?]]<br />
'''Wilt:''' Yes! Yes I am!<br />
'''Bloo:''' How about those chips?<br />
'''Wilt:''' Sure thing, buddy!<br />
He calmly leaves to get Bloo some salt and vinegar chips, but by the time he realizes what's happening and turns around to reprimand Bloo, the door has been slammed in his face and the episode is over. }}
* In ''[[The Emperor's New Groove (Disney)|The Emperors New Groove]]", Yzma and Kronk are at Pacha's home, Yzma claiming to be a distant Great Aunt of Pacha's and trying to stall them for time, so as to recapture Kuzco. The son, Tipo, jumping rope, mentions to Yzma that she doesn't look like his Great Aunt;
{{quote| "...you look more like my great, great, great great great-" *Scene cuts to out- when it cuts back, Tipo's still going:* <br />
"Great, great, great, great-"<br />

From the [[Deep South]] page:
{{quote|'''Sam Donaldson:''' ''Governor Clinton, let's be frank. You're running for president, yet your only experience has been as the governor of a small, backward state with a population of drunken hillbillies riding around in pickup trucks. The main streets of your capital city, Little Rock, are something out of ''[[LilLi'l Abner (Comic Strip)|Lil Abner]]'', with buxom underage girls in their cutoff denims prancing around in front of Jethro and Billy Bob, while corncob-pipe-smoking, shotgun-toting grannies fire indiscriminately at runaway hogs.''<br />
'''Bill Clinton:''' ''I'm sorry, Sam, do you have a question?''|''[[Saturday Night Live]]'', [http://snltranscripts.jt.org/92/92cdebate.phtml Debate '92].}}
