* ''VideoGame/MissionImpossibleKonami'': The final challenge in the game is to stop the supercomputer from launching the missiles to start World War 3. You need to convince it there will be no winner in the war, and so you need to play a game of Madelinette against it, and end with no winner three times. This makes the computer go haywire trying to win the game, and shut down, aborting the launch.

'''Gremlin:''' Aye.\\
'''DM:''' So you're agreeing with me? I thought that gremlins always contradict people.\\

** Played straight with [[https://www.lesswrong.com/posts/kmWrwtGE9B9hpbgRT/a-search-for-more-chatgpt-gpt-3-5-gpt-4-unspeakable-glitch Glitch Tokens]], which are certain groups of words that will confuse [=LLMs=] with results ranging from being unable to repeat them properly to outright crashing when trying to say them. Every model has a different set of glitch tokens which depends on the tokenizer used to train them.

* ''WesternAnimation/RobotChicken'' had a couple of killer robots proclaim their intent to kill someone who was currently using the toilet, but they inform him that they will wait until he is finished pooping, as poop is hard to clean from their processors. The guy tells them that he can't go if he knows they're going to kill him, and the robots realize they can'tkill him until he does go, causing them to explode. That same episode also has Myth/RobinHood mugging a rich person of their valuables, who protests that by stealing from the rich, they are currently poor, and if he gives the valuables back, the poor will be rich, who will then need to be robbed in order to give to the poor. This causes the robots to again explode.

** Jason once asked his mother if Marcus could sleep-over. She said that it was all right with her, if it was all right with his father. Asking his father, he's told that it's fine with him, if it was all right with his mother. After the BeatPanel, he's shown consulting several logic books.
** An earlier strip featured Paige entering the same situation and just telling her friend "yeah, it's all right."
