* ''Fanfic/ThirtyHs'' is almost entirely composed of this, which, in combination with its abuse of PurpleProse, makes it JustForFun/{{egregious}}ly hilarious. Whether [[TrollFic this is intentional]] or [[SoBadItsGood not]] is [[PoesLaw impossible to tell]].

* In the Evangelion GagDub ''[[http://sokodei.com/redeath/ Evangelion: ReDeath]]'', [[Anime/PokemonTheSeries Pikachu]] attacks NERV. However, the following scene acts like an AMV for ''Pokémon'' set to the [[Music/{{ACDC}} AC/DC]] song [[DoubleEntendre "Big Balls"]], and there's not much of a focus on Pikachu, but rather James, another character from ''Pokémon''. After the "AMV" is done, ANOTHER random anime is introduced -- ''Anime/TenchiMuyo!'' The cast of ''Tenchi Muyo!'' is quickly killed off by Pikachu, and the plot returns. ...yeaaah...

* ''[[Fanfic/RealityChecksNyxverse Nyx's Family]]'' has Chapter 11, wherein Market Forces, an economist in the employ of the Royal Sisters lectures the audience on the virtues of free market capitalism, labels [[ArtisticLicenseHistory prerevolutionary France's Ancien Regime as an example of the evil and oppressive nature of socialism]] before we are treated to a flashback of Celestia and Luna using a magic mirror to consult ''HUMAN'' economists in order to create Equestria's economic system [[AuthorFilibuster All of the consulted economists are libertarian free market Austrian school economists like Hayek or Von Mises. Not one mainstream economist like Keynes, Galbraith, or even Milton Friedman is consulted]]. After backlash exploded in the comments, the author made a point of never ever referring to the events of this chapter in the rest of the story or any of its sequels.

* Chapter 25 of ''Fanfic/LXGTempestRewrite'' begins with [[WesternAnimation/FairlyOddparents Mr. Turner blaming the apocalypse on Dinkleberg]], who invites him to watch the televised wedding of a vampire couple that has been massacred by zombies. It's bizarre, extreme, features no other characters from the story, contributes nothing to the plot, and only seems to be included for cheap laughs.

* ''Fanfic/BeastBoyAndRavenJoinPETA'': Beast Boy and Raven's sex scene in Chapter 3. It comes out of nowhere, is never mentioned again, and can best be described as "bestial eldritch bondage". (Since the author admitted to writing this story like a classic ''WesternAnimation/SouthPark'' episode, this could be a reference to that show's (mostly) pointless, exagerrated sex scenes.)

* The ''[[Fanfic/AkkoKagariUniverse Akko Kagari Universe]]'' series has several scenes that have nothing to do with the main plot, and weren't mentioned again afterwards. In fact, most of the BLAM in this series are because of the author attacking the ''[[Literature/HarryPotter Harry Potter]]'' series just because he wants to. For the specific examples:
** ''Seven Stars'':
*** Wangari's Early-Bird Cameo has her being pestered by some girls to show them the contents of her trunk. It was not mentioned again ever since (whether the author intent for it to be a ChekhovsGun much later into the series remains to be seen).
*** Akko taking note of [[Literature/HarryPotter a boy with a lightning bolt scar on his forehead]] getting picked on by a group of kids. [[Main/LampshadeHanging Akko herself had no idea why she felt like pointing it out]].
** ''Contest of Champions'':
*** In the middle of the Third Challenge in the titular Contest, the story suddenly cuts away from the Contest itself to tell us that elsewhere in the world, [[Literature/HarryPotterAndTheGobletOfFire a boy drowned because a magical seaweed that should've helped him breathe underwater didn't work]]. This passage exist with the sole purpose of [[Main/TakeThat taking jabs]] at the ''Harry Potter'' series, and it has absolutely no relevance to the plot.
*** At one point, Akko distracts Garie and Sabi by throwing a jar containing a [[Franchise/ResidentEvil Las Plagas parasite]] out of a window. Both the parasite and the scene it appears in are never mentioned again.

* ''WebAnimation/BartTheGeneral'', despite making little sense to begin with, has a few scenes like this, such as one when [[Series/{{House}} House]] climbs a water tower and gets his cane broken by an icicle, and a scene where Barton wakes up in an underwater vault with a strange gauge.
* Subverted in ''FanFic/LatiasJourney'' with the [[ParodySue Berry Stoo]] fight, the RPG arc, and the [[spoiler: battle between the Pokérangers, Team Rocket and the Tyrantron]]. Not only does Ash get a rematch with Stoo later on, but [[spoiler: Mewgle becomes [[strike: TheDragon]] TheManBehindTheMan, and the origin of the Pokerangers becomes an important plot point]].
** Played straight when [[spoiler:Giovanni's body (working for Deoxys) is trying to interrupt Rayquaza's resurrection]] and stumbles onto the set of a game show for no good reason.
*** Not exactly, Copernicus(the ghost) is mentioned in the following scene, by characters who had NOT been there. He is one of the guard ghosts, and a character from another fanfic author.
* Chapter 25 of ''Fanfic/LXGTempestRewrite'' begins with [[WesternAnimation/FairlyOddparents Mr. Turner blaming the apocalypse on Dinkleberg]], who invites him to watch the televised wedding of a vampire couple that has been massacred by zombies. It's bizarre, extreme, features no other characters from the story, contributes nothing to the plot, and only seems to be included for cheap laughs.

After the "AMV" is done, ANOTHER random anime is introduced -- ''Anime/TenchiMuyo!'' The cast of ''Tenchi Muyo!'' is quickly killed off by Pikachu, and the plot returns. ...yeaaah...
* One of Stephen Ratliff's later ''Fanfic/MarissaPicard'' stories, 'Winning Love By Daylight', has this bizarre (even by Ratliff standards) scene where Jay Gordon and the resident psychiatrist Martin are talking about Marrissa's problems in a restaurant when the narration casually mentions a monster walking in to the place. Just as suddenly, two of the 24th Century's version of the [[Anime/SailorMoon Sailor Scouts]] show up (please note that outside this scene, Ratliff's stories are ''Series/StarTrekTheNextGeneration'' fanfic and don't usually cross over with ''Sailor Moon'' or anything else) -- one of them being a half-Klingon girl. The two vanquish the monster and leave. Jay and Martin comment on the weirdness, and then it's never mentioned again.
