* [[TheLaundrySeries The Laundry]] short story "Overtime" deals with Bob pulling Christmas watch duty in the aftermath of the office party. The first sign that something's wrong is when he goes to the photocopier, finds a few cheek copies, and realizes [[GlamorFailure one of them shows the thorax of a giant cockroach...]]

* This is implied to have happened in ''WesternAnimation/RegularShow'' when Muscleman inadvertently believes that Mordecai and Rigby were making fun of his mom. He pulls out a picture of her and states "Give her a kiss and tell her she's beautiful." . The two obey and apologize only to be forced to eat the picture and told that [[JustJoking this was all a giant prank.]]. Muscleman gleefully adds [[{{Squick}} "That's not even a picture of our mom. It's a picture of my buttcheek I just squished it up to look like a woman's face!"]]. This causes Mordecai and Rigby to exchange glances that totally scream IAteWhat?. Its even more apparent when they're told that he had copies if they were still hungry.

* Played for BodyHorror in an anthology of short stories (I believe by Bruce Coville). Two young boys are taken to their father's work and decide to do this with their brand new copy machines. The each make 100 copies of their butt and face respectively, in that order. The first one notices his runs out of toner near the end, as his crack is completely gone at the end. He thinks nothing of it until the second finishes his face and comes up with his facial features removed. It's described as like the surface of an egg, with a lipless mouth, two noseholes, and no eyebrows or eyelashes. It's then that he checks his bottom, and realizes his cracked is sealed over. It's also then he realizes he [[PottyEmergency needs to use the bathroom]].

* The dimwitted protagonist in the music video of Lene Alexandra’s "My Boobs Are OK" makes several cheek copies.

* ''TheAnnoyingOrange'': Done by Midget Apple in ''[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LAmKx7e_dzI Wishful Thinking.]]'' But considering what he is, it just looks like a circle.

* Occurs in the music video of BritneySpears's "Womanizer".

DontTryThisAtHome, kids. See TruthInTelevision below to find out why. {{Mooning}} is this trope's more direct cousin, with the advantage of this trope being that it can be done both in advance and not in range of retaliation by the victim.

* For the ultimate office prank, make enough copies that you can tape them end to end (so to speak) in a chain that you can then feed into a scroll-fed fax machine, closing the loop as it feeds: enter the fax number for someone you don't like, and you've just sent them an ''infinite series of butts''. Or at least, wasted all ''their'' toner. You'll need about half-a-dozen copies to pull this off successfully without complications. On the downside, good luck dealing with the manager when he asks about the large phone bill incurred from the ''faxing your butt''[[note]]yes, fax machines still use switched circuits like telephones and modems[[/note]]- that may be the your last day at work there if you're unlucky, or demoted or have a pay cut if you're ''really'' unlucky.

* A Flash game called ''[[http://www.freewebarcade.com/game/slackman/ Slackman]]'', set in your office, allows you to, among other things, do this for lots of points.

* [[TheLaundrySeries The Laundry]] short story "Overtime" deals with Bob pulling Christmas watch duty in the aftermath of the office party. The first sign that something's wrong is when he goes to the photocopier, finds a few cheek copies, and realizes one of them shows the thorax of a giant cockroach...

* ''HeyArnold!'' shows one episode where the rather immature Harold Bergman is copying his butt (pants down and all) at the library (while Arnold is actually doing research on school rules) They are later seen running out of the library as the angry librarian is yelling''[[GetOut "Never come back again!"]]''

* In a Christmas episode of ''Series/{{QI}}'', StephenFry observes that there are more incidents of copying machines needing to be repaired during the Christmas season than during the rest of the year, for just this reason.

* This turns up as a NoodleIncident in ''FatherTed'', who was forced to photocopy his rear end when he lost a bet. "They never let him in that library again."

* In a sketch from ''Series/ABitOfFryAndLaurie'', Tony Inchpractice (Creator/HughLaurie) hosts a talk show titled [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin "Photocopying My Genitals With"]]. After Tony photocopies his genitals, his guest Sir Alan Beaverby (StephenFry) elects to copy his bottom instead.

* Subverted in a security tape that went viral. The man was so heavy that he broke the glass when he sat on the copier and fell into the machine.
