* As shown in the page image, the eponymous Kevin of ''Series/KevinCanFuckHimself'' proudly and shamelessly lives up to this trope, leaving all the housework to his put-upon wife Allison. Fitting the series' premise as a SubvertedSitcom and GenreDeconstruction, this trope is torn apart in showing just how tiring and annoying such behavior gets after a while, with Allison becoming increasingly resentful and frustrated with Kevin's continued immaturity and utter refusal to learn even the bare minimum of responsibility after a decade of marriage.

* ''WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons'': Homer Simpson could be the posterboy of this trope. He outright refuses to do any housework, spends nearly every minute of free time on the couch with a beer, watching TV, and whenever Marge isn't present and he's left in charge, the house inevitably becomes a total sty. In fact, Homers ideal existance has been shown to be a life where he literally does not have to move a muscle, as shown when he briefly hides out with Grampa at the retirement home, and enjoys having the staff feed him and help him move over in bed. On the rare occasions he does do what Marge asks him to, he always screws it up massively.

** Big Bob has some traces of this as well. When he and Helga go to the supermarket as Miriam is out of town, he is actually surprised none of the food on sale is already prepared.
