* [[Cowboy Bebop|Spike]] isn't the most technical-minded of hotshot bounty hunters. If something mechanical is broken, he'll kick it until it works.

* ''[[8-Bit Theater (Webcomic)|Eight Bit Theater]]'': The Light Warriors' (''especially'' Black Mage) approach to ''anything'': try to kill everything in sight. Including each other. If they don't do the first, then they stand around arguing until their enemies' stupidity makes them self-destruct. It's usually one or the other.
* ''[[Darths and Droids]]'': "I cast [[Summon Bigger Fish]]", although even though Jim keeps mentioning it, it never really gets used - aside from the small bonus comic that was done once.
* Vaarsuvius from ''[[The Order of the Stick]]'' has been known to engage in this line of thinking regarding his/her arcane powers.

{{quote|God, look at me. This was supposed to be my quest for peace, and I've become addicted to ''destroying suns''. How did I try to mend relations with the Terrans? I blew up a sun. How did I vanquish the Dread Lords? I destroyed their sun. How did I tackle the volatile Drengin? Destroyed all their suns. Drath relations dodgy? Gear up to destroy some suns. [[The Tetris Effect|It was spreading to real life, too]]. Deputy Editor Tim called just now to ask how this diary was coming along, and all I could say was "It's taking a while. Couldn't we just destroy the sun?"}}
