* ''Fanfic/WhatIfKrillinBecameASaiyan'': While rejecting Guru's offer to unlock his full potential, Goku declares that Saiyans find it more important to ''earn'' their strength, remarking offhandedly to Krillin that he probably doesn't understand that since he wasn't born a Saiyan.

Thus, Krillin thinks Goku's remark reveals his best friend looks down upon him just like the others.

Then he realizes it's Uriel's name means "Light of God" and by leaving the suffix off it's changed the meaning to "light" without God. In other words, Harry effectively just called him Lucifer. Harry quickly backpedals and starts calling him "Mr Sunshine" instead, which Uriel finds a much more amusing nickname.

* ''TabletopGame/BattleTech'': When the Clans first arrived in the Inner Sphere, Inner Sphere mechwarriors were shocked by how insulted most Clan warriors reacted upon being called [[YouBastard bastards]]. This was because the Clans have a eugenics program where the DNA of warriors from previous generations is used to grow new generations in artificial wombs and thus the implication that a Trueborn warrior had ''parents'' was deeply insulting. Once this information proliferated, Inner Sphere mechwarriors began hurling the insult significantly more.

She merely thinks of it as an insult that she's heard bandied around the playground, but when she sees Beezus' face crumple, she realizes that she must have crossed a line. She later explains why she used that term, and Beezus admits to her in turn that she got upset because of how sensitive she's been about an acne problem of late. The two sisters thus apologize to each other for their argument.

** Sasuke accuses his teammates of not understanding what he's going through, since Naruto "never had anyone" and Sakura "always had everyone!" This hits Naruto especially hard, tapping into one of his deepest insecurities: the fear that he really ''can't'' comprehend how it feels to lose a loved one because his parents died while he was still an infant, meaning he never had a chance to ''know'' them well enough to miss them.
** Jiraiya scolds Naruto about his inability to keep his fox ears and tail from manifesting, declaring that repressing his kitsune features ''should'' be like second nature. This reminds Naruto of the FantasticRacism all of the animal clans have suffered in Konoha after a nine-tailed fox rampaged through the village, spurring him to angrily quit his lessons and storm off.
