* In ''[[Discworld/The Truth|The Truth]]'' Otto Chriek is an [[Uberwald|Uberwaldian]]ian stereotype who gets offended when de Worde assumes he's a vampire. Which he is.
** Used in the earlier ''Carpe Jugulum'' with an Igor.
* In ''[[Everworld]],'' David asks April if he knows anything about the goddess Brigid, {{spoiler|whom he'd just met back in the normal world}}. April wryly comments that she doesn't know Celtic mythology just because her family is Irish. When David is embarrassed she admits that she ''does'' know a bit about Brigid, though only because she takes time to study mythology while in the Old World.
Line 83:
** In "Christian Rock Hard", Cartman forms a band, and tells [[Punny Name|Token Black]] to get a bass from his house. Token says that he doesn't have a bass, but Cartman says, "Token, you're black. Trust me, there's a bass at your house." Token returns with a bass, and protests that he can't play it. Sure enough, as the song starts, Token's picking away like a pro, and mutters to himself "dammit."
** A double dose in yet another episode, Cartman keeps berating Kyle, demanding that he give him his "Jew Gold," a bag of gold every Jew apparently carries around his neck. Toward the end, Cartman is proved correct, and Kyle gives him the bag...at which point Cartman asks for the ''real'' one, since he knows every Jew has a fake bag of gold to give out as a decoy. Kyle gapes at Cartman in disbelief and anger...then pulls out a second bag and throws it into a fire.
* Subverted in the episode of ''[[Futurama]]'' with the cast of ''[[Star Trek: The Original Series]]'' has Shatner telling Takei to karate-chop one of the Planet Express crew. Takei objects to the idea that he can do karate just because he's Asian. Shatner defends this by saying that Takei never talks about himself.<ref>Maybe if you showed a little interest...</ref>. Next scene, Takei gamely chops away, and is exactly as bad as you'd expect someone with no karate training to be.
** This is even funnier when one knows that Takei ''loves'' to talk about himself.
* ''[[The Simpsons (animation)|The Simpsons]]'', during a basketball game:
