== Anime and Manga ==
* In the ''[[Touhou]]'' manga, Strange and Bright Nature Deity, [[Anvilicious|we are told]]
{{quote|When nothing is happening, you make something happen. That is how a journalist works.|Aya}}
* Speedy Cerviche of ''[[Samurai Pizza Cats]]'' offered up a great Spoof Aesop after a battle: "Whoever said 'Violence never solved anything' wasn't a Pizza Cat!"
* In ''[[Bobobo-Bo Bo-bobo]]'', the eponymous character spends a great deal of the fight against Halekulani (a money-obsessed villain) trying to convince him that friendship and normal life is more important than money. At the end, he starts saying what the most important thing in the world really is, and ''just'' as he knocks out Halekulani, admits that it's money, after all.
Line 40 ⟶ 42:
* Any Aesop from ''[[Sayonara, Zetsubou-sensei]]'' falls under this.
* ''[[Sailor Moon]]'' had many incredibly stupid aesops delivered at their [[And Knowing Is Half the Battle|"Sailor Says"]] segments at the end in the English dub, which are mocked in this way in ''[[Sailor Moon Abridged]]''.
