* The WebVideo/GameGrumps reference this trope in their ''Dennis the Menace'' let's-play. Because the game ([[TheProblemWithLicensedGames such as it is]]) involves platforming around Mr. Wilson's house, they imagine what would happen if he completely snapped on Dennis:
-->'''Danny''': "MRS. THE MENACE? DENNIS CAME OVAH TO MY HOUSE AND FELL DOWN THE STAIHS AGAIN! '''AGAIN!!'''"

For example, when the police question a murder suspect, they may find that he has cuts or scratches on his face, consistent with the type of wounds that the perpetrator would incur in that sort of crime (perhaps because someone with a knife fought back). When asked where he got them, nine times out of ten he will say he Cut Himself Shaving. Likewise, a guy who beat someone up will often say that the victim "fell down some stairs" or "ran into a door" whenever being questioned by the cops. There are also stories of corrupt or excessively violent police themselves using the same sort of line to explain the injuries they inflicted on a suspect during questioning.
