{{quote|''"Last night's Itchy & Scratchy was, without a doubt, the worst episode ever. Rest assured I was on the Internet within minutes registering my disgust throughout the world."''|
So Bob and Alice have just finished a harrowing experience and a witty one liner is needed to sum up the entire situation. What ever will our intrepid heroes do?
Line 14:
A more verbose variant would be to say, "This is the worst X in the long history of X..."
Compare [[Worst News Judgment Ever]] which is an example of this very trope on [[This Very Wiki]]. Contrast with [[It's the Best Whatever Ever!]] Also see [[Beergasm]], an inversion of this trope on [[This Very Wiki]], and [[Punctuated!

* [[The Offspring]]'s "The Worst Hangover Ever."
* [[Modern Man]]'s [[Leon Redbone]] pastiche, "The Worst Dominatrix in L.A.".
== Theater ==
Line 96 ⟶ 95:
* From ''[[Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions]]'': "Lamest. Supervillain. Ever."
* Shows up in ''[[The Simpsons Game]]'', unsurprisingly: Comic Book Guy dubs an [[Escort Mission]] "worst videogame cliché ever".
** In ''[[The Simpsons Hit
* In ''[[Kingdom Hearts: 358/2 Days
* In ''The Dishwasher: Vampire Smile'', if you beat The Neuromancer as The Dishwasher, the cut scene afterward has him remark "Worst. Headache. Ever."
* ''[[Jade Empire]]'' sees Lovable Pervert Lustful Lau respond to questions which do not pertain to his sole area of interest (no points for guessing) with "Worst. Question. Ever," in what is unmistakably an imitation of Comic Book Guy... [[Anachronism Stew|in Imperial China.]]
Line 129 ⟶ 128:
* ''[[Looking for Group]]'': [http://www.lfgcomic.com/page/37 "Worst Portal Ever."]

** Introduced by Comic Book Guy in "The Itchy & Scratchy & [[Shoo Out the New Guy|Poochie]] Show".
** In the eleventh season's "Saddlesore Galactica", Comic Book Guy criticizes the episode, which recycles old plots and character traits ("Excuse me, I believe this family already had a horse", Marge's gambling). As the episode proceeds, he wears a "Worst Episode Ever" shirt. When the credits end at the Gracie Films production logo, he says, "Worst. Episode. Ever."
** Appropriately enough, the twelfth-season episode "Worst Episode Ever" centers around Bart and Milhouse taking over Comic Book Guy's store after he suffers a cardiac episode (a heart attack). Which CBG refers to as, of course, "[[Incredibly Lame Pun|Worst episode ever.]]"
* ''[[Avatar: The Last Airbender]]''
Line 159 ⟶ 158:
** And "Worst. Fieldtrip. Ever." (Again by Toph. Can you tell that she loves this trope?)
** Earlier in the episode "Avatar Day", Sokka summed up the whole experience: "Worst. Town. Ever."
* ''[[The Legend of Korra]]'' plays this for drama and humor in the same episode. when Korra gets so frustrated over her airbending block she calls herself the worst Avatar ever, Tenzin assures her she'll get through it. When she applies the same trope to Tarlokk's new puppet police chief, he completely agrees.
{{quote|'''Korra:''' You are officially the worst chief of police ever.
'''Tenzin:''' Calm down Korra. I'll get this sorted out, we just need to be patient. But you really are the worst. (starts to go, then turns) EVER. }}
