Line 116:
**** And the fact that the whole town is ''very'' anti-catholic in the first place (to a point where using the necronomicon to rise the dead is veiwed better than reading form a Catholic bible)
** Even disregarding the voo doo aspect, Censordoll was already a Straw Hypocrite. When Oral campaigned to get eggs boycotted, she went along with it because she felt it would help her image, even though she loved eggs to the point of obsession (and also because she figured she could secretly keep the mayor from ever banning them). When Oral succeeded, she was forced to buy them illegally.
* Hank himself becomes this in the ''[[King of the Hill]]'' episode "It's Not Easy Being Green". Joining Luann's environmentalist group seems very out of character for him at first, Bobby mentioning that he usually claims extremist tree-huggers were "noodle-brained communists". In truth, Hank's real reason for joining the group is because they're protesting a quarry being drained, something that Hank does ''not'' want the town to do. Seeing as years ago, he Dale, and Bill crashed Boomhower's old Mustang there and never told Boomhower; draining the quarry would expose them as liars. Naturally, his actions now only expose him as a liar ''and'' a hypocrite.
* The teachers in [[Danny Phantom]], the only reason they gone with Sam's vegetarian food idea is so they can have all the meaty food for themselves.
** Though it is implied that the teachers didn't even wanted to do Vegan Week in the first place and only did so because Sam just wouldn't leave them alone about it. As Sam herself said, "''I finally wore them down."''
