{{examples}}
 
== [[Art]] ==
* The foundation stone of classic ''[[Commedia Dell'Arte]]''. Capitano's big sword was always placed suggestively, and Pantalone often caressed his low-hanging moneybags.
* [http://www.wikigallery.org/wiki/painting_229051/Isaac-Cruikshank/The-Master-of-the-Ordnance-exercising-his-Hobby This cartoon] about [[The Duke of Wellington]]'s alleged womanising.
 
== [[Anime]] and [[Manga]] ==
* ''[[FLCL]]'' is [[media:FLCLheartSymbol.jpg|full]] of it.
** It's amazing how ''kneading dough'' in a bakery can have such perverse connotations.
Line 44 ⟶ 45:
* In ''[[Sakigake Otokojuku]]'', Momo berates a woman for being fickle while pouring a glass of milk (which [[Hammerspace|inexplicably appeared from nowhere]]) over her head, leaving her looking shocked with white liquid dripping from her face. Subtle it ain't.
* In ''The [[Dirty Pair]]: Dangerous Acquaintences'', Kei and Yuri are on vacation on a non-United Galatica planet. They see an attractive guy and start talking to him:
{{quote| '''Kei:''' Oh look… a train! Gee… I jush love watchin' a train enner a station… don' you? It reminsh me of someth-- ?!}}
:: But right then, Kei sees that a wanted criminal who she has a grudge against is boarding the train, and runs off in pursuit.
 
Line 53 ⟶ 54:
** Another, single-panel gag has the memorable line from his little sister Liz, as they both cloud-gaze, "I see Mickey Mouse['s ears] in the clouds...what do you see?"
* ''[[Empowered]]'' has some example. Look at Thugboy and his gun at the cover of #1.
 
 
== [[Film]] (Live Action) ==
* ''[[Office Space]]'' does this when Lawrence is talking about how he'd do two chicks at the same time: He's sitting down and holding his beer bottle against his crotch.
* The third ''[[Pirates of the Caribbean]]'' movie had Barbossa banging on a table with a chain shot (two cannonballs connected by the chain) for emphasis. Later he stands up and we have a perfectly framed shot of his legs, with the two cannonballs dangling in between.
{{quote| '''Jack''': Whose boons? Your boons?}}
** Also, the scene with the telescopes.
* In ''[[Austin Powers|Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me]]'', there's a scene where Austin and Felicity are packing and unpacking inside of a tent, but to the horrified soldiers watching outside, it looks a lot different...
Line 86:
 
== [[Literature]] ==
* ''[[Discworld]]'':
** [[Terry Pratchett]] does this with ''landscape'' in ''[[Discworld|Lords Andand Ladies]]''. At one point, Nanny Ogg and Casanunda have to visit the Long Man, three large burial mounds in the forest. One long with two round ones at one end.
*** It also gets one of the heaviest [[Lampshade Hanging|lampshades]] possible.
** A Wizard's staff has a knob on the end.
** In ''[[Discworld/Unseen Academicals|Unseen Academicals]]'', Glenda points out to the wizards that with the placement of two large letter U's on their uniforms, they'll "look like they've got bosoms!"
 
== [[Live -Action TelevisionTV]] ==
* [[Buffy the Vampire Slayer|The Whedonverse]] has a lot of these. The stake in Hush, Wesley's arm-blades in Spin The Bottle, and Buffy (hilariously) crushing Warren's *ahem* magic orbs.
** In the episode when Buffy discovers her post-Angel [[Replacement Goldfish|rebound guy]] Riley at the vamphouse, the scene opens with him and a female vampire kneeling before him, shot at an angle (and with sound effects) that makes it unclear just ''what'' she is sucking, but that there is [[Erotic Eating|definitely sucking going on]]. Then the camera pans around to show that it's just blood from his arm.
Line 97 ⟶ 98:
* An accidental version occurred in the third season of the UK version of ''[[The Apprentice (TV series)|The Apprentice]]'', where one of the contestants had to sell a trampoline on a shopping channel. [http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=eZP3Xcuo16E It might be a bit NSFW.]
** This made the "''The Apprentice:'' The Worst Decisions Ever" special.
{{quote| '''Simon''': It's not my fault. I'm innocent. Everyone else, out there, are the dirty-minded ones. I can only attest to being an innocent person.}}
** The design of the building in [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-xi3d1ix-3I this clip] also qualifies. Yes, that's the same candidate.
* In one of the episodes of ''Samantha Who'', the title character (who has experienced amnesia) is trying to remember what sex is like and the next scene shows her boyfriend repeatedly putting a pencil into a mechanical sharpener.
Line 111 ⟶ 112:
== [[Music Videos]] ==
* The music video for [[Devo]]'s "That's Good" has a bluescreen background that, on occasion, shows a french fry going into the hole in a donut, followed a naked woman from the shoulders up writhing in ecstasy. It's...fairly unsubtle. (Then the fries start breaking as they go in, and the woman begins looking downwards with a sigh of frustration...) MTV refused to air the video before either the french fry or the donut was removed.
* [[Queens of the Stone Age|Queens of the Stone Age's]] "Go with the Flow" video has lots of [[Visual Innuendo]] tucked behind the more overt examples.
* The animated Music Video for [[Tobuscus]]'s [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eN7dYDYfvVg I CAN SWING MY SWORD!] at timestamp 0:33. Doesn't help that his eyes are bugging out either.
 
== [[RealVideo LifeGames]] ==
* ''[[The Elder Scrolls]]: Morrowind'' - in one [[Precursors|Dwemer]] ruin, under a bed there is a [[Lost Technology]] tube, some oil, and a few piles of ash...
* The Old Spaghetti Factory serves the [[Double Entendre|Meat Lover's Treat]]: a plate of spaghetti with Sicilian meatballs and a whole Italian sausage. Your dinner companions might rearrange the exact placement of above meat items if you spend too long in the bathroom.
** To clarify, the ash piles are {{spoiler|the Dwemer themselves. They all died rather...suddenly.}}
* There was an Alitalia poster on bus stops in New York for a while that showed a closeup of a woman [[Erotic Eating|suggestively eating]] a cannoli.
* In ''[[Snatcher]]'', Gillian sees an underage girl in his apartment, using his shower. She freaks out and sprays him with her showerhead. He spends the next scene looking damp, flushed and shocked with fluid dripping down his face.
* Several French restaurants have independently invented a dessert called ''Rêve de jeune fille'' ("young woman's dream"). It's made up of two spherical scoops of vanilla ice cream with a peeled banana standing right between the two. For additional naughtiness, serve with cream on top of the banana. For additional naughtiness, serve without a spoon.
* In ''[[No More Heroes]]'', the main character Travis recharges his Beam Katana by shaking it. But, the behind the back camera makes it look suspiciously like [[A Date with Rosie Palms|something else...]]
* The ''[[Grand Theft Auto]]'' games... for example, practically any bowling-alley you can find, will have a sign prominently featuring two bowling-balls and a pin.
* ''[[Metal Gear Solid]]'': Vamp licking Raiden's white blood off of his crotch knife.
 
== [[Web Comics]] ==
Line 123 ⟶ 127:
 
== [[Web Original]] ==
* Superdickery.com has an entire gallery of such things, starting [https://web.archive.org/web/20200408224846/http://www.superdickery.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=category&layout=blog&id=32&Itemid=50\%5C].
* In Chapter 10, Act 2 of the web animation series ''[[Broken Saints]]'', when [[Sexy Secretary|Sandra]] talks about wanting to do field work at a naval base with hunky sailors, a little animation features her moving her pencil to and from her lips. It's not much, but its been confirmed by [[Word of God]] to be intentional.
 
Line 130 ⟶ 134:
* In the [[Looney Tunes]] short "Russian Rhapsody" when the gremlins make their entrance a fat one stands near the edge of the plane engine and another gremlin's very long nose pokes out from between his legs.
