* In ''Piglet's Big Movie'', Pooh is distracting Kanga with small talk about whether the animal sitting in a nearby tree is a bird or a ''fish.'' The situation is taken from the original novel, but in the movie, Tigger (who was not present for the scene in the book) intervenes with "It looks kinda wiggly! It could be a jellyfish! ...I think it's more of a peanut-butter-and-jellyfish, isn't it?" All of which is amusing, but the real SugarWiki/{{Funny Moment|s}} comes in the next scene, where the camera zooms in on Kanga's house... right past a tree where a ''really happy-looking fish'' [[BrickJoke is sitting on a branch]].

* David Benedictus's ''Return To The Hundred Acre Woods'' is a bit uneven as a whole, but has some really hilarious parts, one standout being when Owl tries to solve a crossword puzzle and gets stumped by "Big bird (3 letters)." He ends up writing "EGL," which he suspects is wrong -- but try as he might, he can't squeeze "OSTRIDGE" or even "HORK" into three letters.

* In ''The House at Pooh Corner'', Piglet and Pooh fall into a deep hole which they eventually decide must be a trap dug by a Heffalump. Pooh suggests that when the Heffalump comes along, they should try to confuse it by claiming that ''they'' dug the trap for ''him.'' Piglet lapses into a dream sequence about all the brave and witty things he's going to say to the Heffalump... and then when Christopher Robin finds the hole, a panicking Piglet mistakes him for the Heffalump, and all the brave, witty things he was planning on saying end up in a confused muddle:
-->"This is a trap for Poohs, and I'm waiting to fall into it, ho-''ho,'' what's all this, and then I say ho-''ho'' again."\\
''"What?"'' said Christopher Robin.\\
"A trap for ho-ho's," said Piglet huskily. "I've just made it, and I'm waiting for the ho-ho to come-come."
** The original "heffalump trap" chapter from the first book is no less funny, with Piglet seeing Pooh in the trap with his head in a honey-pot, mistaking him for a heffalump, and sounding the alarm:

** The conversation from
the Heffalump comes along, they should try to confuse it by claiming that ''they'' dug the trap for ''him.'' Piglet lapses into a dream sequence beginning, about all the brave and witty things he's going to say to the Heffalump... and then when Christopher Robin finds the hole, a panicking Piglet mistakes him for the Heffalump, and all the brave, witty things Pooh's name.

--->'''Christopher Robin''': "So did I.
"
--->'''Narrator''': "Then, you can't call him 'Winnie'."
--->'''Christopher Robin''': "I don't."
--->'''Narrator''': "But you said--"
--->'''Christopher Robin''': "He's Winnie-''ther''-Pooh! Don't you know what 'ther' means?!"\\
'''Narrator:''' [''To Christopher Robin''] "Ah, yes, now I do." [''narration''] And I hope ''you'' do to, because it is all the explanation you are going to get.
** The original "heffalump trap" chapter from Pooh lives "under the name" of Sanders... as in literally under, since that's what the sign on his doorframe reads.
** Pooh reasoning that you don't get a buzzing noise unless someone's making one, and the only reason for making a buzzing noise that he knows of is because you're a bee. He then adds that making honey is "the only reason for being a bee".
** Pooh wants to [[{{Balloonacy}} use a balloon to float to the beehive to get honey]], but when Christopher Robin asks why he wants the balloon, he doesn't explain this in so many words; he just stage-whispers, "Honey".
--->'''Christopher Robin''': ''(bemused)'' "But you don't get honey with balloons."
** When Pooh thinks the bees are "suspicious" that he's not actually a cloud, he tries to seal the deal by singing that he's a cloud, not realising (due to his often-mentioned lack of "brain") that clouds don't sing.
** When Christopher Robin doesn't want to pop the balloon as it would "spoil" it, Pooh says, "But if you don't, I'd have to let go, and that would spoil ''me''!".
* "Piglet Goes Visiting and Gets into a Tight Place":
** At the beginning, Rabbit wonders if Pooh is actually an intruder, so he pretends to be somebody else:
--->'''Pooh''': "Is anybody at home?! ... What I said was, 'Is anybody at home?'!"
--->'''Rabbit''': "No! You needn't shout so loud. I heard you quite well
the first book time."
--->'''Pooh''': "Bother! Isn't there anybody here at all?!"
--->'''Rabbit''': "Nobody!"
--->'''Pooh''': ''(after realising that's a lie because "somebody must have said, 'nobody'")'' "Hello, Rabbit. Isn't that you?"
--->'''Rabbit''': ''(putting on a voice)'' "No."
--->'''Pooh''': "But isn't that Rabbit's voice?"
--->'''Rabbit''': "I don't think so. It isn't meant to be."
--->'''Pooh''': "Oh! ... Well, could you very kindly tell me where Rabbit is?"
--->'''Rabbit''': "He has gone to see his friend Pooh Bear, who
is no less funny, a great friend of his."
--->'''Pooh''': "But this ''is'' me!"
--->'''Rabbit''': "What sort of 'me'?"
--->'''Pooh''': "Pooh Bear!"
** When Rabbit asks Pooh if he wants honey or condensed milk
with his bread, he asks for both, but then worries that he's being greedy, so he adds, "But don't bother with the bread please".
** Pooh's response when he first gets stuck:
--->'''Pooh''': "Bother! I'll have to go back! Oh, help! I'll have to go on! I can't do either! Oh, help ''and'' bother!"
** Rabbit hanging towels on Pooh's legs.
* "Pooh and
Piglet Go Hunting and Nearly Catch a Woozle":
** Piglet's house had a "Trespassers will be prosecuted" sign on it, but [[SignsOfDisrepair it now only says]], "Trespassers w--" and when Piglet moved in, it apparently said, "Trespassers will--". Piglet thinks that it's short for Trespassers William, who was his grandfather (named "Trespassers after an uncle and William [[{{Pun}} after]] Trespassers").
** When Piglet is telling Pooh about his grandfather, Pooh wonders if it's two grandfathers they're chasing, obviously not knowing what a grandfather even is.
** Piglet's BlatantLies when trying to deny his fear of the hypothetical woozles and wizzles. He claims that he wishes Christopher Robin were there but [[SuspiciouslySpecificDenial only because he likes him, not because he wants reassurance]] and claims he has to do [[INeedToGoIronMyDog something that has to be done right now]] without specifying what the alleged thing is.
* "Piglet Meets a Heffalump":
** When Pooh says that the heffalump won't see the pit until he was already halfway-down because it'd be looking at the sky wondering if it would rain. Piglet wonders what would happen if it was already raining, so Pooh says that then, it'd be looking at the sky wondering if the rain would ''clear up''. Then Piglet wonders what would happen if the heffalump looked down, so they come up with the idea of bait. They each think that their own favourite food (honey for Pooh and acorns for Piglet) would be the best bait, but switch sides upon realising that they'd have to give up some of their own food.
** Pooh trying to come up with justifications for eating the honey that's supposed to be bait. He remembers his uncle mentioning
seeing honey-coloured cheese and uses this as an excuse to "check" if it's cheese. Then, he finds a justification for eating 90% of it by rationalising that someone may have replaced the honey at the bottom with cheese for a joke.
** Pooh tries to put himself to sleep by [[CountingSheep counting Heffalumps instead of sheep]] but every Heffalump takes a pot of his honey, and when "the five hundred and eighty-seventh Heffalumps were licking their jaws, and saying to themselves, 'Very good honey this, I don't know when I've tasted better', Pooh could bear it no longer".
** One of the worries Piglet has about heffalumps is whether or not they're aggressive specifically to pigs with grandfathers named Trespassers William.
** Piglet sees
Pooh in the trap with his head in a honey-pot, mistaking mistakes him for a heffalump, and sounding sounds the alarm:



** Another moment from the original heffalump story is Pooh trying to come up with justifications for eating the honey that's supposed to be bait. He remembers his uncle mentioning seeing honey-coloured cheese and uses this as an excuse to "check" if it's cheese. Then, he finds a justification for eating 90% of it by rationalising that someone may have replaced the honey at the bottom with cheese for a joke.
* Just about all of Tigger's antics in the second chapter of ''The House At Pooh Corner'' ([[InWhichATropeIsDescribed "In Which Tigger Comes To The Forest And Has Breakfast"]]).
** He thinks the tablecloth tried to bite him, and when Pooh says that it didn't, Tigger says, "It ''tried''" and claims that he was just too quick for the cloth.
** When he eats a thistle, he thinks that it's painful because it's too hot. (Eeyore thinks that it was a bee.) Later, Tigger says, "What were those hot things called?"
** Tigger finally discovering what food Tiggers like by eating Roo's Strengthening Medicine (Extract of Malt) while Kanga is trying to administer it.
--->He put out his tongue and took one large gallalop. Kanga cried "Oh!" and clutched at the spoon just as it was disappearing and pulled it safely back out of Tigger's mouth. But the Extract of Malt had gone.
--->"Tigger, dear!" Kanga said.

*** He then describes the creature's "head" as looking like "an enormous big nothing", probably referring to the lack of a face on the jar.
* "Eeyore Has a Birthday and Gets Two Presents":
** Another moment When Pooh says, "Many happy returns", Eeyore wishes them back. When Pooh points out it isn't ''his'' birthday, Eeyore says that he doesn't want two people to be miserable on his birthday.
** Owl tries to spell "Happy birthday", but can't spell either of those words, ending up with three misspellings of "birthday" ("Bthuthdth", "thuthda" and "bthuthdy"). He tries to cover up his tracks by saying that he's actually writing, "A very happy birthday with love
from Pooh".
** When Piglet falls down and pops
the original heffalump story is balloon, he initially thinks the loud noise was him exploding and [[NotWhereTheyThought being transported to the moon]].
** Eeyore eventually has fun [[IncrediblyLameFun putting the burst balloon into the pot and taking it out over and over]].
* "Kanga and Baby Roo Come to the Forest and Piglet Has a Bath":
** Rabbit saying that he's suspicious of Kanga because she carries her "family" with her in her pocket, and then they argue over how many pockets would be required to carry ''Rabbit's'' family.
**
Pooh and Piglet initiate a ZanyScheme by Rabbit to get rid of Kanga and Roo, involving Rabbit kidnapping Roo while Piglet takes his place inside her pouch. When Kanga discovers Piglet, she decides to just go with it and pretends to think that he's Roo, so that he grows increasingly frustrated as she gives him Roo's medicine and bathes him, all while insulting him:
---> ...you know what I told you yesterday about making faces. If you keep making faces like Piglet, you will grow up to ''look'' like Piglet--and ''then'' think how sorry you will be.
*** When Piglet is
trying to come up with justifications for eating get Kanga to stop pretending to think he's Roo, one of the honey that's supposed things he says is "Can't you ''see''?! Haven't you got eyes?! ''Look'' at me!".
*** During the zany scheme, they try to get Kanga to look away by pretending there's a creature in the nearby tree. However, they argue over whether it's a bird or a ''fish''.
** Piglet thinking that if [[KangarooPouchRide riding in Kanga's pouch]] is what flying is, he doesn't want
to be bait. He remembers his uncle mentioning seeing honey-coloured cheese able to fly.
** Piglet is apparently such a MessyPig that Christopher Robin ''doesn't recognise him'' when he's clean,
and uses thinks he's Pooh's relative named Henry Pootel.
* "Christopher Robin Leads an Expotition to the North Pole":
** Nobody knows what the North Pole even is, beyond "a thing you discover", so when Pooh finds a literal pole (as in a big stick), [[LiteralMinded they think
this as is it]].
** Piglet is playing a game where he blows a dandelion to see if something will happen "this year, last year, sometime, or never". He's discovered that it will never happen, but has forgotten what "it" is and hopes it's nothing good.
** Piglet doesn't know what
an excuse to "check" expedition is, and asks if it's cheese. Then, he finds a justification for eating 90% of it by rationalising fierce. When Pooh says that Christopher Robin said nothing about "fierce", just that it had an "X", Piglet replies, "It's not their [[MondegreenGag necks]] I mind; it's their teeth".
** When the people in the line say, "Hush!" to each other in succession, the last one, a beetle named Alexander, runs off in shame.
** When Christopher Robin says that the area is the kind of place for an ambush, Pooh replies, "What sort of [[ComicallyMissingThePoint bush]]? A gorse bush?". Owl starts explaining what an ambush is, but Piglet is indignant that Owl listened into his and Pooh's conversation and pretends he was going to say what Owl just said. When Owl explains that an ambush is what happens when
someone may have replaced the honey jumps out at you, Pooh says that a gorse bush did once.
--->'''Owl''': ''(sternly)'' "We are not talking about gorse bushes!"
--->'''Pooh''': "I am."
** When Eeyore is grousing about no one feeling sorry for him that his tail's numb, he says that to everyone else, a tail is nothing more than "a little bit extra
at the bottom with cheese for a joke.
back".
* Just about all of Tigger's antics "Piglet is Entirely Surrounded by Water":
** Piglet notes that he hasn't seen so much water
in the second chapter whole three or four years of his life.
** When Piglet is lamenting that he can't save himself, he goes over the ways his friends could escape. When he gets to Eeyore, he says that he could escape by making noises until rescued.
** When Pooh's feet get wet from the flood, [[CrashingDreams he starts dreaming about woozles stealing his fur in the snow]].
** Pooh makes a "boat" out of a honey pot, dubbing it
''The Floating Bear''. It notes that for a while, he and it "were uncertain as to which of them was meant to be on the top".
** Owl having to [[LaymansTerms dumb down]] his SesquipedalianLoquaciousness:
--->'''Owl''': "The atmospheric conditions have been very unfavourable lately."
--->'''Piglet''': "The what?"
--->'''Owl''': "It's been raining."
*** He then tells a story about his aunt, who [[ArtisticLicenseBiology accidentally laid a seagull's egg]].
** The author lampshading how long his sentence is, and then ending the story, claiming to be tired after typing it.
* "Christopher Robin Gives a Pooh Party":
** Pooh's "anxious Pooh song", which he imagines everyone singing as a result of no one exactly knowing why they're throwing a party in his honour. It's full of funny rhyming conversations, such as "Three cheers for Pooh!" "For who?" "For Pooh!".
** When Owl invites Eeyore, the latter is too pessimistic to realise it wasn't a mistake.
--->'''Owl''': "He said to invite ''all'' of them!"
--->'''Eeyore''': "All of them except Eeyore?"
--->'''Owl''': "''All'' of them!"
** Pooh thinks that "B", "HB", and "BB" on pencils stand for "Bear", "Helping Bear", and "Brave Bear".

[[folder:The
House At at Pooh Corner'' ([[InWhichATropeIsDescribed Corner]]
* "A House is Built at Pooh Corner for Eeyore":
** Pooh's clock has stopped at 10:55, but he doesn't bother to wind it, because he likes to pretend it's almost eleven since that's when his snack time is.
** Pooh introducing his song to Piglet:
--->'''Pooh''': "The more it snows, tiddely-pom..."
--->'''Piglet''': "Tiddely-what?!"
--->'''Pooh''': "Pom. I added that part in to make it more hummy. The more it goes, tiddely-pom, the more it--"
--->'''Piglet''': "Didn't you say, 'snows'?"
--->'''Pooh''': "Yes, but that was before!"
--->'''Piglet''': "Before the 'tiddely-pom'?"
--->'''Pooh''': "It was a ''different'' 'tiddely-pom'!"

** Pretty much all of Tigger's antics:
***
He thinks the tablecloth tried to bite him, and when Pooh says that it didn't, Tigger says, "It ''tried''" and claims that he was just too quick for the cloth.
** *** When he eats a thistle, he thinks that it's painful because it's too hot. (Eeyore thinks that it was a bee.) Later, Tigger says, "What were those hot things called?"
** *** Tigger finally discovering what food Tiggers like by eating Roo's Strengthening Medicine (Extract of Malt) while Kanga is trying to administer it.
--->He ---->He put out his tongue and took one large gallalop. Kanga cried "Oh!" and clutched at the spoon just as it was disappearing and pulled it safely back out of Tigger's mouth. But the Extract of Malt had gone.
--->"Tigger, ---->"Tigger, dear!" Kanga said. said.
** At the beginning, Pooh wonders what's making the "worra" noise (actually Tigger making it for no reason).
--->'''Pooh''': "Is that you, Piglet? ... Come in, Christopher Robin! ... Tell me about it tomorrow, Eeyore!"
** Pooh writes a poem, but gives shillings as a weight (presumably because pounds are both a weight and a currency). When Piglet critiques this, Pooh says that the word "wanted to come" to his poem.
* "A Search is Organdized and Piglet Nearly Meets the Heffalump Again":
** At the beginning, Pooh can't keep track of whether it was fourteen or fifteen pots of honey, but [[BigEater hopes it's the latter]].
** When Pooh falls down the hole, he thinks, "I'm flying. What Owl does. I wonder how you stop."
** When Pooh lands on top of Piglet, he thinks Piglet's words are his own, and that he's injured himself in a way that makes his voice high-pitched and come out when he doesn't want it to.
** Piglet and Pooh fall into a deep hole which they eventually decide must be a trap dug by a Heffalump. Pooh suggests that when the Heffalump comes along, they should try to confuse it by claiming that ''they'' dug the trap for ''him.'' Piglet lapses into a dream sequence about all the brave and witty things he's going to say to the Heffalump... and then when Christopher Robin finds the hole, a panicking Piglet mistakes him for the Heffalump, and all the brave, witty things he was planning on saying end up in a confused muddle:
--->"This is a trap for Poohs, and I'm waiting to fall into it, ho-''ho,'' what's all this, and then I say ho-''ho'' again."\\
''"What?"'' said Christopher Robin.\\
"A trap for ho-ho's," said Piglet huskily. "I've just made it, and I'm waiting for the ho-ho to come-come."
*** Pooh deciding that the heffalump will say, "What's all this?" instead of a third "Ho-ho!", since if you try to say, "Ho-ho!" gloatingly three times, "[[BuffySpeak it isn't ho-ho-ish anymore]]".
* "Tiggers Don't Climb Trees":
** After Pooh learns about seeds, he wonders if he could [[GrowsOnTrees grow a beehive]] by planting a honeycomb. Then, he wonders if he could plant just a bit of comb so as not to be wasteful, but then he worries that he'd only get a piece of a beehive, and the wrong piece.
** Tigger starting to doubt himself about his ability to climb trees, noting that climbing down would be hard due to having to climb backwards, "unless one fell, which would be easy". Then, he almost falls, but Roo thinks he did it on purpose and asks him to do it again.
** Pooh mistaking Tigger and Roo for "jagulars"; creatures that shout, "Help!", then drop on you when you go to help them.
* "Rabbit Has a Busy Day and We Learn What Christopher Robin Does in the Mornings":
** Christopher Robin misspells "back soon" as "backson", which Owl thinks is a creature that may or may not be "[[{{Planimal}} herbaceous]]".
** Eeyore writes an 'A' out of sticks on the ground as a symbol of education. Then, he rants about everyone else not taking education seriously... while stepping on his sticks and rendering them useless.
* When Eeyore accuses Tigger of bouncing him into the river.
--> "It's like this, Christopher Robin," said Rabbit. "Tigger -- "
-->"No, I didn't!"
** And further on:
--->"All I did was I coughed," said Tigger.
--->"He bounced," said Eeyore.
--->"Well, I sort of ''boffed''," said Tigger.
* In the chapter where Pooh, Piglet, and Rabbit try to "unbounce" Tigger, Roo wants to tag along with them. They [[BatmanGambit dissuade Kanga from allowing this]] by claiming that Roo was coughing that morning, knowing full well that Kanga will [[JumpingToConclusionsDiagnosis assume he is sick]]. As it turns out, Roo ''had'' been coughing that morning, but only because a biscuit got stuck in his throat. When Kanga asks him why he didn't tell her, he responds, "It was a biscuit cough, not one you tell about". Then, he asks if he can come on the next available outing, to which Kanga responds, "I'll see".
-->'''Roo''': "You're always 'seeing' and nothing ever happens!"
* Owl's house is originally called "THE WOLERY", but then Eeyore sits on the sign and it becomes "THE SMUDGE". Owl coughs at Eeyore in irritation when he sees this. Then Eeyore marches off to show the other animals the new house he found for Owl, with the greater part of "THE WOLERY" on his behind.

--> ...you know what I told you yesterday about making faces. If you keep making faces like Piglet, you will grow up to ''look'' like Piglet--and ''then'' think how sorry you will be.
* When Eeyore accuses Tigger of bouncing him into the river.
--> "It's like this, Christopher Robin," said Rabbit. "Tigger -- "
-->"No, I didn't!"
** And further on:
-->"All I did was I coughed," said Tigger.
-->"He bounced," said Eeyore.
-->"Well, I sort of ''boffed''," said Tigger.
* Owl's house is originally called "THE WOLERY", but then Eeyore sits on the sign and it becomes "THE SMUDGE". Owl coughs at Eeyore in irritation when he sees this. Then Eeyore marches off to show the other animals the new house he found for Owl, with the greater part of "THE WOLERY" on his behind.

* Pooh tries to put himself to sleep by [[CountingSheep counting Heffalumps instead of sheep]] but every Heffalump takes a pot of his honey, and when "the five hundred and eighty-seventh Heffalumps were licking their jaws, and saying to themselves, 'Very good honey this, I don't know when I've tasted better', Pooh could bear it no longer".
* Owl tries to spell "Happy birthday", but can't spell either of those words, ending up with three misspellings of "birthday" ("Bthuthdth", "thuthda" and "bthuthdy"). He tries to cover up his tracks by saying that he's actually writing, "A very happy birthday with love from Pooh".
* In the chapter where Pooh, Piglet, and Rabbit try to "unbounce" Tigger, Roo wants to tag along with them. They [[BatmanGambit dissuade Kanga from allowing this]] by claiming that Roo was coughing that morning, knowing full well that Kanga will [[JumpingToConclusionsDiagnosis assume he is sick]]. As it turns out, Roo ''had'' been coughing that morning, but only because a biscuit got stuck in his throat. When Kanga asks him why he didn't tell her, he responds, "It was a biscuit cough, not one you tell about". Then, he asks if he can come on the next available outing, to which Kanga responds, "I'll see".
-->'''Roo''': "You're always 'seeing' and nothing ever happens!"
* The conversation from the beginning, about Pooh's name.
-->'''Narrator''': "But I thought he was a boy?"
-->'''Christopher Robin''': "So did I."
-->'''Narrator''': "Then, you can't call him 'Winnie'."
-->'''Christopher Robin''': "I don't."
-->'''Narrator''': "But you said--"
-->'''Christopher Robin''': "He's Winnie-''ther''-Pooh! Don't you know what 'ther' means?!"\\
'''Narrator:''' [''To Christopher Robin''] "Ah, yes, now I do." [''narration''] And I hope ''you'' do to, because it is all the explanation you are going to get.

* In ''Piglet's Big Movie'', Pooh is distracting Kanga with small talk about whether the animal sitting in a nearby tree is a bird or a ''fish.'' The situation is taken from the original novel, but in the movie, Tigger (who was not present for the scene in the book) intervenes with "It looks kinda wiggly! It could be a jellyfish! ...I think it's more of a peanut-butter-and-jellyfish, isn't it?" All of which is amusing, but the real SugarWiki/{{Funny Moment|s}} comes in the next scene, where the camera zooms in on Kanga's house... right past a tree where a ''really happy-looking fish'' is sitting on a branch.

* In ''The House at Pooh Corner'' Piglet and Pooh fall into a deep hole which they eventually decide must be a trap dug by a Heffalump. Pooh suggests that when the Heffalump comes along, they should try to confuse it by claiming that ''they'' dug the trap for ''him.'' Piglet lapses into a dream sequence about all the brave and witty things he's going to say to the Heffalump... and then when Christopher Robin finds the hole, a panicking Piglet mistakes him for the Heffalump, and all the brave, witty things he was planning on saying end up in a confused muddle:
