Thinking Out Loud: Difference between revisions

Line 21:

* From ''[[Digimon Savers]]'' we have [[Fusion Dance|Bio-Hybrid]] [[Dumb Muscle|Ivan]]. He constantly blurts out embarassing thoughts outloud, not realizing his mistake even when Namani and Yoshi inform him they can hear every word he's saying.

* In ''[[~~Rin~~-Ne]]'', chapter 28, Egawa gives one, and it's lampshaded.

* Chopper of ''[[One Piece]]'' combines this with [[I'm Standing Right Here]] when he both thinks out loud and badmouths his hosts because he'd thought them crude primitives at first glance.

Line 38:

** Lampshaded in [http://coa.inducks.org/story.php?c=D+2000-013 "Snow It Goes"], where the villain, in the middle of his soliloquy, mentions that he's going to use the money he's villained away to get a psychiatrist and cure his inexplicable urge to talk to himself.

* Extremely common in [[Superhero]] comics in general, at least as recently as the [[Bronze Age]]. Characters' thoughts would be written in regular round voice bubbles half the time, rather than bumpy thought bubbles, indicating that they were speaking out loud. It would frankly be easier to list [[Superhero|superheroes]] of the era who did ''not'' do this.

** Of particular note though is the cover of ''Amazing Fantasy'' #15, where [[Spider Man]] annoucnes quite clearly that he is Peter Parker while holding a ne'er-do-well in one hand, thus telling him his [[Secret Identity]].

*** [[Retcon|Retconned]] in the more recent ''Amazing Fantasy'' series in a two-page story called "I was the Guy in [[Spider Man]]'s Armpit," where he was just a [[White Collar Worker]] who fell out of his office window and Spider-Man saved. He was too busy screaming in terror to hear what Spider-Man was saying.

* [[Doctor Doom]] does this a lot. In ''[[Secret Wars]]'', [[Talkative Loon|Klaw]] calls him out on it, asking if Doom is taping himself. Doom then reveals that he is, because [[Crowning Moment of Funny|"Every utterance of Doom must be recorded for posterity!"]]

== Fanfic ==

* Mao from [[Code Geass Mao of the Deliverance ~~(Fanfic)~~|Code Geass Mao of the Deliverance]] is a particularly triumphant example as he, suffering from [[Power Incontinence|uncontrollable]] [[Telepathy]], talks to himself constantly in order to differentiate his thoughts from everyone else. [[Played for Laughs]] when other characters question his sanity or he accidentally reveals information he didn't intend to.

* Because of the [[Big Finish]] ''[[~~Doctor Who (TV)|~~Doctor Who]]'' audios, talking to himself is actually considered a character trait of the Eighth Doctor.

* The characters on ''[[Criminal Minds]]'' often do this if someone else isn't present, usually starting with "I'm the UNSUB." Lampshaded in one episode when Prentiss was muttering about what she was doing (reenacting the victim's last moments) when another character came up behind her.

Line 92:

* Dib from ''[[Invader Zim]]'' did this so often that his outer monologues eventually were punctuated exclusively by people confused about this, [[Lampshade Hanging|including he himself wondering why he does it]].

* A version of this occurs in ''[[Phineas and Ferb]]'' with Candace constantly talking to herself, pointing to that she also assumes everyone she knows has heard what she said. Played for laughs when she tells Phineas she's gonna call mom "...And this time I'm not using the banana!"

* ''[[Jimmy Two Shoes]]'' from the episode ''Jimmy and Beezy on the Run'': "Maybe you're right. Maybe Miseryville has finally gotten to the Jimmy! Maybe, just maybe... I've gone bad!"

* ''[[Jimmy Two-Shoes]]'' from the episode ''Jimmy and Beezy on the Run'': "Maybe you're right. Maybe Miseryville has finally gotten to the Jimmy! Maybe, just maybe... I've gone bad!"

** Beezy responds by saying: [[Lampshade Hanging|"Enough with the thinking out loud!"]]
