* During the 2020 Presidential Election, gaming-based NewsParody site ''Website/HardDrive'' posted the article [[https://thehardtimes.net/harddrive/gamer-sick-of-two-console-system/ "Gamer Sick of Two-Console System,"]] about a gamer who finds it pointless to [[UsefulNotes/ConsoleWars choose between Sony and Microsoft]] ("At the end of the game, they're both just angry old men who want to kill stuff") but can't go TakeAThirdOption with Nintendo because all the games are made for the main two systems so it's basically "throwing your gaming away." It also features an "independent gamer" who insists upon playing Nintendo and the obscure console Raspberry Pi to make true change in the gaming industry.

* Side-quests in ''VideoGame/WorldofWarcraft''contain this with astonishing frequency for what is ostensibly a Teen-rated game. One of the first groups of baddies you run into if you level an orc or troll character is The Burning Blade, a cult that ritualistically uses [[ICantBelieveItsNotHeroin a drug which makes their blood poisonous]]. A series of side quests on the Forsaken side in the Eastern Kingdoms meanwhile takes you through what is totally not a concentration camp (it totally is). The Alliance isn't that much better. You get to be the riot police taking out striking workers...yay. A disturbingly high number of quests in the game SHOULD have you asking [[HeelRealization wait...are we the baddies?]]. You know, if you actually read the quest text.

Any situation which is made, sometimes for comic effect, sometimes for dramatic effect, to look like another situation -- not in the sense that it is [[NotWhatItLooksLike mistaken for that other situation]] by any of the characters, just in the sense that we the audience see the resemblance. The characters do not. Alternatively it can refer to an [[CaptainErsatz ersatz]] of something more familiar that the audience would immediately recognize in {{subtext}}, in order to make it look less {{Anvilicious}}, but it doesn't always succeed in fulfilling the latter. The situation doesn't always have to mean anything sexual, however it is the most common use of the {{trope}}.

** "King Robert Baratheon", which is about how Robert started out a rebellious teen and became King, is set to the tune of "Alexander Hamilton", which tells the story of a poor orphan managing to better his situation into becoming a historical figure.
** "Hand of the King" is set to "Right Hand Man". Both songs happen during a war and involve the protagonist being given an important position they weren't expecting by a father or father figure who's a prominent military leader.
** "Shae No To This" is about Tyrion's SecretRelationship with Shae, and at some point has a minstrel try to extort money from Tyrion to keep his mouth shut about it. Its original, "Say No To This", is about Hamilton having an affair with a married woman and includes her husband asking for money in exchange for his silence.
** "Growing Concerned" focuses on a group of characters conspiring to get another out of their way, much like its original, "Washington by Your Side".
** Both of the songs sung by Daenerys were originally sung by King George III, who is also an antagonist separated from the protagonists by a large body of water, and has nothing to do plot-wise.

Not to mention that her adopted older brother Shinji regularly beats her and rapes her. Then when this is revealed about Sakura and that she's become a vessel for the Holy Grail (which contains [[BiggerBad Angra Mainyu]], who will use her to be "born"), the SinisterMinister Kirei Kotomine refuses to prevent this because he believes all things have the right to exist (and because he wants to destroy the world), which eventually leads to Sakura's boyfriend Shirou fighting him for her.]]

** Also, during the scene where he stalks her prior to this, he makes several references towards getting excited about "wanting to *** her", and the "long hard object in his pants". After a couple screens of this, it's mentioned that the blanked-out four-letter word is [[spoiler:kill]], and the object he's talking about is his [[spoiler:knife]]. Then after Arcueid has been [[spoiler:kill]]ed by Shiki, she chases him down to "make him take responsibility" for his actions.

* In ''Theatre/IntoTheWoods'', the song "Hello, Little Girl" is theoretically about the Big Bad Wolf trying to eat Little Red Riding Hood, but it's dripping in sexual innuendo. The later song "I Know Things Now" all but drops the pretense, being straightforwardly about her loss of innocence as a result of the encounter.

* In the musical version of ''Main/ThePhantomOfTheOpera'' (and TheMovie made from it), the song ''The Music of the Night'' could be seen as an attempted seduction. The lyrics are highly-suggestive euphemisms (The Phantom is singing about his Music and the Dark/Night, but could just as easily be substituted for sex). Christine faints towards the end of the song, so ultimately nothing happens.
