-->Don't worry about any international hand signs for "please help my head is gone". [You are], in fact, already making the international hand sign for "help my head is gone". ''Your head is actually fucking gone'' and that's a much better signal than any silly gestures could ever hope to be.

* The ''Website/TGChan'' quest ''[=AsteroidQuest=]''[='s=] bonus material has an article for a certain alien race to maximize their chance of [[LosingYourHead surviving decapitation]]. One paragraph about using SignLanguage (since you're now deaf, mute and blind) warns about stating the obvious:

* Captain Obvious is an OverlyLongGag on Wiki/{{Uncyclopedia}} saying something [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin obvious]] [[OnceAnEpisode on every single Article.]] [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin Captain Oblivious]] is probably also there, but he's not sure.
** His (CaptainObvious') biography may be found [[http://uncyclopedia.wikia.com/wiki/Captain_obvious here]]. (Click the link to read it).

-->'''Bob''': "'Yeah, I kinda figured.' (People love to state the obvious)"

* Nearly everyone that is allied with WinnieThePooh in ''Pooh's Adventures''. They often state the obvious of what's going on.

** [[http://www.gunnerkrigg.com/archive_page.php?comicID=262 Of all the pages I've drawn so far, this is one of them.]]

Because, [[http://www.gunnerkrigg.com/archive_page.php?comicID=370 when Eggers showed up in chapter 17]], many readers ''did not recognize him'', and a noticeable number of them [[http://gunnerkrigg.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=general&action=display&thread=296&page=1 disbelieved Tom when he tried to clarify]].

** Upon entering Ples's house: [[http://hanna.aftertorque.com/?p=775/ "Good freaking Jesus, this guy loves clocks"]]
* ''Webcomic/{{Freefall}}'': some guy to Florence: "[[http://freefall.purrsia.com/ff1900/fc01823.htm You're a talking dog!]]" (Technically she's an anthropomorphic red wolf, but...) He even says it twice for good measure. He does redeem himself a couple of strips later by deducing what she does, where she came from and who she's working for... without tossing her out afterward.
* ''{{Bobbins}}'': [[http://bobbins.keenspot.com/d/20020121.html how to quit smoking]]: "I stopped putting them in my mouth and lighting them."

* ''Webcomic/{{Sinfest}}'' had [[WindmillCrusader Seymour]] [[http://www.sinfest.net/archive_page.php?comicID=1831 clearing this all up]].
* Sachiel from ''Webcomic/UniversalCompass'' tends to point out the obvious whenever the other characters have little or no reaction to the events.
* In ''WebComic/EightBitTheater'':
** After hearing some obvious statements, [[http://www.nuklearpower.com/2003/04/05/episode-269-sir-webs-a-lot/ Drizz'l labels]] Black Mage as "Captain Obvious" and Red Mage as "Stating The Overly Apparent Man".
** A later comic had [[http://www.nuklearpower.com/2009/04/28/episode-1122-changes/ this exchange]]:
---> '''Red Mage:''' "Fighter, you'll use your swords to hurt them."
---> '''Fighter:''' "That's what swords are designed to do!"
