** this one might have a possible explanation, as the cigar could be thermite-based which would continue to burn underwater.

* Dr. Zoidberg attempts to fix his beloved slinky, presumably re-coiling it himself (offscreen) after it was all straightened out. Placing it on a staircase made of books, the mangled slinky topples down the books clumsily, and somehow [[MadeOfExplodium catches fire]] at the bottom. Dr. Zoidberg bursts into tears.
* Nearly everything Zoidberg loves catches fire. For instance, his house which was destroyed by a cigar end, three kilometres underwater.
-->'''Zoidberg:''' My house! It burned down! How could this have happened?!\\
'''Hermes:''' [[LampshadeHanging That's a very good question.]]\\
'''Bender:''' So ''that's'' where I left my cigar. ''[takes a puff]''\\
'''Hermes:''' ''[[VoodooShark That just raises further questions!]]''
* In the episode "Future Stock", when Mom's children are voting on the Momcorp-Planet Express merger, Ignar has a controller with two buttons, "Yes" and "No." He somehow casts his vote for Pat Buchanan. His excuse: "The ballot was confusing." [[note]]If you don't get it, it's a reference to the 2000 presidential election in Florida, which saw an above-average amount of votes in heavily Democratic counties like Palm Beach for Buchanan which Buchanan himself attributed to the [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Butterfly_ballot confusing nature of the ballot]].[[/note]]
* In the epic, "absolutely nothing on the line except the shame of defeat" basketball game between Earth and the Harlem Globetrotters planet in "Time Keeps on Slipping", one of the genetically-engineered basketball-playing super mutants accidentally gets splattered. Fry offers to substitute. When asked if he's any good, he says that it doesn't really matter because they're up 35 points with two minutes left in the game, so [[TemptingFate it's not like he could seriously screw things up]]. Cue a timeskip where the game is over and somehow the Globetrotters are now ahead 244 to 86.
* The sixth season has an episode where Fry is building a machine with Leonardo da Vinci. The blueprints keep rolling back up after being spread out, so Fry gets the idea to tape them to the table. The table snaps in half like a bear trap.
* In "A Pharaoh to Remember", a depressed Bender decided to spray paint a blank building wall with a picture of himself and the phrase "Bender lives large and kicks butt." The building is then demolished, changing the picture to a person's behind [[SignsOfDisrepair and the phrase to "Bender licks butt"]] ''a la'' a [[Magazine/{{MAD}} MAD Magazine]] fold-in joke page.
* In the 7th season episode "A Farewell to Arms" [[MakesJustAsMuchSenseInContext when the inhabitants of Earth are returning from Mars by having Mars directly enter Earth's atmosphere]], Leela gets stuck at the bottom and Fry offers to pull her down. Leela reaches her arm out to Fry's and her arm ends up breaking off. Fry suggests she use her other arm to grab her severed arm and ''his'' arm breaks off, leading them to scream as their arms get sucked into Mars' atmosphere and fly away.
