Line 119:
** Bonus points for nearly every character being named after something sweet namely pastries.
* Any [[Magical Girl]] anime shows can have such a diabetes syndrome - notable examples include ''[[Pretty Cure]]'' and ''[[Ojamajo Doremi]]''.
** ''[[Suite Pretty Cure|Sweet Pretty Cure!]]'' It's even in the title <ref>It's actually ''Suite Pretty Cure'', but it's written the same in Japanese</ref>
* Episode 8 of ''[[Carnival Phantasm]]'' has the scene with Saber giving Shirou a birthday present, the sweetness of the scene is enough to rot your teeth.
* Hina from ''[[Papa no Iukoto o Kikinasai!|Papa no Iukoto o Kikinasai]]'', is strong enough to put you in a diabetic coma.

* Ladies and gentlemen, I give you [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5690584/1/The_Vampoife_Dood_Who_Lifed Lilac Rosetta Cretan Veron from ''[[The Vampoife Dood Who Lifed]]''.
{{quote|"Lilac, you're the most sickeningly sweet person ever to grace the planet, aren't you?" Lilac didn't seem to catch the insult, and just smiled broadly, apparently under the impression that her 'influence' had reached B as well.}}
* This trope is invoked in the fanfic ''"[[Harry Potter|Dumbledore's Army]] and the Year of Darkness,"]]'', when Hannah tells Neville that her Aunt has some sickeningly cute collectible china witch figurines. Apparently, "It's like trying to eat half of Honeydukes in one sitting. You can feel your teeth start to rot the second you cross the front door."
* [[The Quincy Punk|Heathcliffe]] and [[The Ingenue|Aki]]'s relationship in ''[[One Piece: Parallel Works|One Piece Parallel Works]]''. One reviewer of the fic describes their relationship as "Diabeetus".
* [[Captain Obvious|Parodied]] in [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3750836/24/Parody_of_Symphonia "''Parody of Symphonia"''], where the particular character achieves the title "''So saccharine, she gives you diabetes!''"
 
 
Line 169:
'''Adam''': Yeah?
'''Wayne''': Yeah. }}
* Parodied in the [[Marx Brothers]] film ''[[Horse Feathers]]''. Thelma Todd's character is going out with Groucho, in an attempt to steal some football signals for a rival college. She adopts an extremely cutesy and high pitched voice and says "If Big-Strong-Man don't let Icky-Baby see the football signals, Icky-Baby gonna cry!". To which Groucho somehow manages an ''even more'' cloying voice and responds "If Icky-Girl don't stop talking like that, Big-Strong-Man gonna [[Crowning Moment of Funny|kick all her teeth right down her throat]]!"
* The first half of the musical and film ''[[Mamma Mia!]]!'' is ridiculously cheerful. It is a musical based on ABBA songs, after all.
* Parodied and lampshaded in ''[[The Naked Gun|The Naked Gun: 33 1/3 - The Final Insult]]'', when Frank and his wife are in a marriage counseling session, they devolve into baby-talking pet names, at which point the therapist states "Mr. and Mrs. Drebin, please - I'm a diabetic."
