Line 128:
* Ninja Style Dancer in ''[[Atop the Fourth Wall]]'' uses written signs to communicate. During the ''Ewoks #1'' review he held up a series of signs in the wrong order in one scene, so Linkara edited the footage to put the right text on top of the signs with an added "Ninjas put their words in the wrong order to confuse their foes."
* Stuart Ashen used this trope for emphasis in [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qqMDa3wM4uI&feature=related a review]. "If you seriously think that the Toshiba Camileo H10 is a serious camcorder then I'm afraid you're... (cut to a closeup of his face) '''Wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong''' (holds up a sign saying WRONG)".
* In a web 2.0 ad for an Italian car insurance company [http://www.tribulinear.it/rc_auto/index.php?src=LL&cv=22\]{{Dead link}}, the spokesman is... a ''[[Cute Mute]]'' ''[[Sexy Secretary]]'', who, ''[[Breaking the Fourth Wall]]'', is fully aware of her nature as a silent flash banner and the user just staring at her. As such, she keeps pestering the potential customer with a [[Ms. Fanservice|combination of cutish, feminine expressions]] and a ludicrously huge amounts of preprinted signs. However, if enough time has elapsed without the user clicking the banner and reaching the website, the girl in question will show increasing amounts of boredom, preventing her from even trying to reach you, until she simply storms off the monitor in a hurry, leaving her couch empty and her cardboard signs hanging at the sides. You're then been given the double choice to ''make up for that'' [[But Thou Must!|by getting to the site she was eagerly promoting]], or ''adopting her''. If you choose to ''adopt'' the girl, a pop-up banner shows up with the same girl cheerily showing a grateful sign to you... and the cycle starts anew.
* Nash's Stick Boy in ''[[What The Fuck Is Wrong With You?]]'' talks through both this and [[Voice Grunting]].
* [[Equestrian Legends|Shuck the Diamond Dog]] had his throat nearly ripped out in his backstory, so he uses signs to communicate.
