Line 2:
* A tongue-in-cheek instance was used in commercials for the "Geek Squad" technical support service broadcast in late 2004.
* A recent Snickers commercial had an interesting subversion: A Viking, after learning a store had no Snickers, initially does a Big No straight and while doing so, throws a garbage can at a car to get his point across. After learning that they had dark chocolate Snickers, however, he does the exact same thing as before... except with a "[[Big Yes|Big Yaaaaaaaay]]"!
* A Geico caveman commercial has one of the cavemen giving a silent Big No after seeing the motto [[Berserk Button|"so easy a caveman can do it"]] on a wall of televisions, [[Skyward Scream|shouting up at the sky]] as he finds [[Redemption in Thethe Rain]] and then running through a flock of [[Disturbed Doves]], while 3 Doors Down's "Let Me Be Myself" plays. This was all re-edited from the song's actual music video, which used the Geico caveman to [[Narm|Narmtastic]] effect, but the commercial's condensed version [[Crosses the Line Twice]] into hilarity.
* There is a literal Big No for the Stop Sex Trafficking logo as seen on the side of this bag: http://www.thebodyshop.ca/newbagforlife.html
* Parodied in an advertisement for the Samsung Epic 4G. An officer of a civil-war army receives a letter, and utters a Big No upon reading it. The parody is that the note is then shown to actually say "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO" for an entire page.
