* In ''WesternAnimation/AvatarTheLastAirbender'', a village's blind faith in a fortune-teller nearly gets them all killed. Even [[TeamMom Katara]], who is often a voice of reason, falls victim to this trope, and asks for huge numbers of ridiculously specific predictions; at one point she asks if she should have a mango or papaya for breakfast the next day, (and on being exasperatedly told the latter, she goes and buys one, even though she hates papayas). However, in a slight [[ZigZaggingTrope zig-zag]], while the many flaws in their logic are pointed out by [[ButtMonkey Sokka]], (who gets completely ignored,) none of the predictions actually turn out to be wrong, even though they require the Gaang's direct intervention to turn out right. Most of them, however, were of the SelfFulfillingProphecy variety (like the guy she told he would meet the love of his life while wearing red shoes, so he started wearing them ''every day''), nobody in the village seems to understand the logic behind this when Sokka tries to explain it.
