[[folder:Comedy]]
* Brian Regan had a joke about people at dinner parties who spend too much time talking about themselves.
--> '''Brian:''' Me! '''Me! ME! MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!''' Beware the Me-Monster.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Puppet Shows]]
* ''Series/TheMuppetShow'':
** Miss Piggy is a JerkWithAHeartOfGold version. She does care about the others on the show, deep down, but she has a narcissistic streak that barely fits in the Muppet Theatre and no compunction about letting it out to play. She's spread ridiculous rumours, tried to trick Kermit into marrying her, and even ''tied up guest stars backstage'' in order to get what she wants.
** Fozzie slips into this during the Cleo Laine episode. Since his mother is in the audience, he becomes obsessed with being onstage as much as possible, including [[DisguisedInDrag stealing Miss Piggy's outfit and taking her place in Pigs in Space]].
* On ''Series/ThePajanimals'', Cowbella sometimes suffers from this, which can also result in GreenEyedMonster, such as in "Apollo's Special Day," when she's jealous of Apollo's birthday and wants a party of her own.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Radio]]
* The ''Series/DoctorWho'' audio "[[Recap/BigFinishDoctorWho230TimeInOffice Time in Office]]" affirms that the Doctor's old teacher Borusa was completely defined by his own ego towards the end; he apparently created a complex and twisted political system that was totally dependent on the idea that he would rule Gallifrey forever, leading to the Time Lords appointing the Doctor as Lord President in his place as the only one with the necessary strength of will to undo Borusa’s current system without Gallifrey collapsing on itself in the process.
* If Sir Gregory in ''Radio/TheMenFromTheMinistry'' thinks One and/or Two are in mortal danger, he'll often get very worried... since their deaths might end up hurting his chances of getting a promotion.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Theater]]
* Lulu of ''Shine: A Burlesque Musical'' has a number with this title.
* Glinda ("It's Gah-linda!") acts like this in the beginning of ''Wicked.''
* The ShowWithinAShow "Springtime for Hitler" in Film/TheProducers features, in the musical version, Hitler singing a song entitled "Heil Myself", [[SoBadItsGood which is everything the title promises]].
* The villainess Lady Jacqueline Carston lampshades this trope in her hilarious song ''Thinking of no one but me'' in the comedic musical ''Me and My Girl''.
* ''Theatre/TheBookOfMormon'' has Elder Price. The first song he and his nerdy missionary brother, Elder Cunningham, sing together is even called, "You and Me (But Mostly Me)".
* Robert Grove in the ''Play That Goes Wrong'' series is pompous, self-serving, egotistical and has no care about the feelings of others, expressed through his BrutalHonesty.
* In the ''Theatre/MrsHawking'' play series: The key difference between Mrs. Hawking and Mrs. Frost. The former is of the mindset that women should help each ''other'' by railing against the patriarchal systems that imprison them, while the latter thinks there's no point in trying to change society, and so exploits it for wealth, power, and her ''own'' betterment.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Web Video]]
* ''WebVideo/RegularCarReviews'' holds the Honda S2000 to be a ''car'' dedicated to this, with the entire dashboard being crowded over onto the driver's side, with only one concession to the passenger.
-->"Okay, fine. Fine. Here. Have a VENT. You can have a VENT. Have fun with your VENT."

* A couple of characters from ''Franchise/{{Noob}}'' suffer this:
** Gaea thinks of her guildmates as human shields, gets away with not contributing to the guild's common fund under the pretense of ([[TheScrooge not really]]) low finances while the very same guildmates are probably worse off than she is. She actually says the following line while explaining what scouting consists of to TheWatson in the webseries : "Your'e supposed to make sure there is no danger for me... I mean us.".
** Omega Zell, usually the ButtMonkey, tends to try diverting any kind of positive attention the guild gets to him. He also keeps claiming that he will be soon in the game's best guild despite the fact that he got on its recruitor's bad side, somehow convinced she will forget that he's a {{Jerkass}} StrawMisogynist once she gets to see his talent.
