** For example, in describing a particular series of overly-chatty droid, one of the commentators in ''Franchise/StarWars Saga Edition'''s ''Scavenger's Guide to Droids'', the supervisor droid who has worked with a wide variety of model, casually notes that she had to rip out its vocoder to get it to shut up. She also comments on how a particular droid of another model that failed its master would have been turned inside out by her. This is explained if you paid attention to the text and saw that she was an EV-series droid, a supervisor droid model detailed in the book, described as having a number of units accidentally getting a torture droid's motivator installed. (The head of Jabba's droid retinue in ''Film/ReturnOfTheJedi'' was an EV-series droid.)

* When WebVideo/TheNostalgiaChick reviewed Disney's ''{{Pocahontas}}'', of course 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]]."

->'''Doctor Rumack:''' ''(completely deadpan)'' How soon can you land?\\
'''Captain Oveur:''' ''(deadpan as well)'' I can't tell.\\
'''Doctor Rumack:''' You can tell me. I'm a doctor.\\
'''Captain Oveur:''' No, I mean I'm just not sure!\\
'''Doctor Rumack:''' Can't you take a guess?\\
'''Captain Oveur:''' Well, not for another two hours.\\
'''Doctor Rumack:''' [[SustainedMisunderstanding You can't take a guess for another two hours?]]
-->-- ''{{Film/Airplane}}''

** Couldn't nearly anything River says fit into this trope?

'''Doctor Rumack:''' [[SustainedMisunderstanding You can't take a guess for another two hours?]]\\
-- ''{{Film/Airplane}}''

--> '''Pinkie Pie:''' ...so then I said "oatmeal"? Are you crazy?

** The West End Games' ''Imperial Sourcebook'' has a bit in the fluff describing the myriad problems that occurred in getting the first Star Destroyers built. "The Navy loved it, of course, and through a combination of bribes, political pressure, and a rash of mysteriously-crushed tracheas, it slowly brought others into line."

* One of the signatures of the Zucker/Abrahams/Zucker style of parody, it is seen throughout {{Airplane}}, Film/TheNakedGun, and the Abrahams series HotShots. Sometimes, the other participant follows them down this road a bit and then they swerve it back into the main conversation with no net effect.

** ''TabletopGame/DungeonsAndDragons 3.5 Dungeons Masters'' guide has this one from a table of '100 random traits' "No sense of humor, see #24". Of course, the list only contains 99 items. Guess which one is missing.

-->'''Ramada:''' Oh Topper, you're just using this whole casting thing to distract from what's really bothering you.

* ''Series/AmericanHorrorStory's'' Chad invokes this so well in "Halloween", it works InUniverse:

* ''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:

'''Doctor Rumack:''' You can't take a guess for another two hours?\\

-->'''Barry Zuckercorn:''' Oh, I could kiss you on the [[ThisTropeIsBleep [bleep]]].

-->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]].

-->'''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.

* Pretty much everything out of {{Raocow}}'s mouth is this. He just rambles and doesn't stop, and it often results in some very, very bizarre Let's Play commentary.

* From NotAlwaysRight:

-->'''Me:''' “Yes, sir, that’s correct. [[VideoGame/ResidentEvil Except we don’t have zombies]].”

Similar to the DeadpanSnarker routine but without the emotional range. These are gags sneaked 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.

** The PSA in one of J.D.'s {{Imagine Spot}}s:
-->'''J.D.''': You had a tough day at the office. So you come home, make yourself some dinner, smother your kids, pop in a movie, maybe have a drink. It's fun, right? ''Wrong.'' Don't smother your kids.

** The Dungeons and Dragons 3.5 Expanded Psionics Handbook contains a very long list of powers. One of these powers, called "Deja Vu," is listed once in its proper placement alphabetically, and again a couple of pages later (still in the D's, so it is quite possible, while skimming through, to think neither is out of place).
