-->-- ''WesternAnimation/InvaderZim''

Pretty much the antithesis to using a LaughTrack. Compare BreadEggsMilkSquick, DistractingDisambiguation and RapidFireComedy.

* Mr. Garcia in ''Webcomic/Paranatural'' says a quick one to one of his students while giving Max his class materials.

* The ''Series/SaturdayNightLive'' character Mr. Subliminal (played by KevinNealon) hinged on rapid firing of these into a normal monologue.

* From ''WesternAnimation/{{Frozen|2013}}'', we have [[FriendToAllLivingThings Olaf]] the [[{{Snowlem}} snowman's]] [[MemeticMutation famous line]]: "I don't have a skull. Or bones." True to the nature of this trope, [[TheHero Anna]] and [[DeadpanSnarker Kristoff]] just ignore this comment and act like it never happened.

* In "[[Recap/ResidentAlienS2E4RadioHarry Radio Harry]]" from ''Series/ResidentAlien'', Harry helps the couple on the reservation to give birth using tips he got from a Website/YouTube video. He tells Asta "Place your hand supra-pubicly over the fetal anterior shoulder applying pressure in a CPR-style in a downward lateral motion" and continues without pausing or changing tone "Be sure to like and subscribe."

Similar to the DeadpanSnarker routine but without the emotional range. These are gags snuck into the middle or ends of conversation without changes in inflection or pacing. The delivery should be matter-of-fact, not sarcastic (usually). For obvious reasons, the more outstanding or shocking the statement, the better.

* In an interview, Creator/StephenFry described a game he and his friends used to play in hotels and places like that, where they had to go up to someone who worked there and say something wildly inappropriate ("Could I lick you out?" in the example he used), but disguise it this way and [[GettingCrapPastTheRadar get away with it]]. If you do it fast and don't change your tone, either it won't register at all or people will assume they misheard you.

* From ''Disney/{{Frozen}}'', we have [[FriendToAllLivingThings Olaf]] the [[{{Snowlem}} snowman's]] [[MemeticMutation famous line]]: "I don't have a skull. Or bones." True to the nature of this trope, [[TheHero Anna]] and [[DeadpanSnarker Kristoff]] just ignore this comment and act like it never happened.

* When WebVideo/TheNostalgiaChick reviewed Disney's ''Disney/{{Pocahontas}}'', there's a point where she mentions some of the discrepancies between the movie and actual history: "...and needless to say, he (John Smith) was a short, portly brown-head, not the [[AdaptationDyeJob golden-haired]] Adonis that we see before us in the movie. Also, [[ValuesDissonance Pocahontas was twelve]]."

* It happens again before that while Pauling is building a bomb to stop the [[spoiler:bread monster.]]
-->'''Scout:''' Hey! Miss Pauling! Aw geez, I am so sorry.\\
'''Pauling:''' Gee, Scout, what for? Pressing the one button you're ''never'' supposed to press? Do you have any idea what's in a briedcase that could--oh! Oh! Give me your watch!

-->'''Gordon:''' ''[[CompletelyMissingThePoint You've been feeding us walnuts?!]]''

* ''Fanfic/NakedSingularity'': At the beginning, as Twilight feverishly works on her story, [[NoodleIncident she offhandedly mentions "centipedes" as one of her past obsessions]] before breezing past it:

* [=GlaDOS=] from ''VideoGame/{{Portal}}''. By the time you figure out what she just said, you're stuck in the middle of another DeathTrap.
** Cake and ''grief counseling?''
--> "You will be baked. [[DistractedByTheShiny And then there will be cake.]]"

-->'''Johnson''': Allright, this next test may involve trace amounts of time travel; so, a word of advice: If you meet yourself on the testing track, don't make eye contact. Lab boys tell me that could wipe out time. Entirely. Forward and backward. So, do both of yourselves a favor and let that handsome devil go about his business

::: Also

-->'''Johnson''': Oh, in case you got covered in that repulsion gel, here's a little advice the lab boys gave me: ''Do not'' get covered in the repulsion gel. We haven't entirely nailed down what element it is yet, but it's a lively one, and it does ''not'' like the [[BodyHorror human skeleton]].

-->'''Miss Pauling:''' Let's see, tomorrow I’m… belt-sanding the fingerprints off of filed corpses.
-->'''Scout:''' Ah, no!
-->'''Miss Pauling:''' Oh! You can help me yank the molars out of a box of heads.
-->'''Scout:''' Ah, no! No to that.
-->'''Miss Pauling:''' Well, Friday I have to kill someone who pressed a briefcase alarm button, and… Oh you’re already going to be at that one… [[note]]The "someone" was the Scout himself, about five minutes earlier.[[/note]]

-->'''Scout''': Hey! Miss Pauling! Aw geez, I am so sorry.
-->'''Pauling''': Gee, Scout, what for? Pressing the one button you're ''never'' supposed to press? Do you have any idea what's in a briedcase that could--oh! Oh! Give me your watch!

-->'''Caller:''' Oh, so you're an umbrella corporation, then?
-->'''Me:''' Yes, sir, that's correct. [[Franchise/ResidentEvil Except we don’t have zombies]].
-->'''Caller:''' I'm sorry, what?
-->'''Me:''' Never mind, sir. Did you have any other questions today?

--> '''Vlad''': ...Causing the accident that ruined my life, stealing you, [[NoodleIncident the backwash incident]]...
--> '''Maddie''': Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, back up. What was that?
--> '''Vlad''': Causing the accident that ruined my life?
--> '''Maddie''': N-no, after that.
--> '''Vlad''': The...backwash incident?
--> '''Maddie''': (frustrated) NO, [[PunctuatedForEmphasis IN. THE. MIDDLE.]]

--> '''Twilight Sparkle:''' BE QUIIIIIEEEEEEET!!!
--> '''Pinkie Pie:''' ...so then I said "Oatmeal? Are you crazy?"

-->'''Caller:''' “Oh, so you’re an umbrella corporation, then?”
-->'''Me:''' “Yes, sir, that’s correct. [[Franchise/ResidentEvil Except we don’t have zombies]].”
-->'''Caller:''' “I’m sorry, what?”
-->'''Me:''' “Never mind, sir. Did you have any other questions today?”

--> '''Party Planner:''' We have many flavors of ice cream: vanilla, strawberry, chocolate, and people.

* ''WesternAnimation/DannyPhantom'' has a few examples. Here's an exchange from the episode ''Maternal Instinct'', where in one scene, Vlad is attempting to convince Maddie to ditch Jack:

* ''WesternAnimation/InvaderZim'' used this fairly frequently. A shining example is from ''Invasion of the Idiot Dog Brain'', where a fast food employee is [[UnusuallyUninterestingSight unconcerned with the fact]] that a [[ItMakesSenseInContext quadrupedal house just walked up to the drive through and is ordering tacos]].

--> '''Maddie''': Wait, what was that last part?
--> '''Vlad''': The backwash incident?
--> '''Maddie''': No, before that.
--> '''Vlad''': Causing the accident that ruined my life?
--> '''Maddie''': (frustrated) [[PunctuatedForEmphasis IN. THE. MIDDLE.]]
