* "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xfeys7Jfnx8 Nice Guys]]" by Creator/{{Nigahiga}}, Kevjumba, and Chester See is actually a subversion. In the music video, the guys go to a class where they learn that they must act like jerks in order to get women. However, they soon realize that acting like jerks actually makes girls hate them, and being nice is what really works. Specifically, the song on it's own plays it straight, the music video that goes with it subverts it.

* ''ComicBook/AstroCity'': Subverted. MPH tries to pull this when Quarrel decides to dump him for her old boyfriend [[MilesGloriosus Crackerjack]]. Quarrel isn't having it, though; she rightly points out that she isn't "women", and that her commitment to being a BadassNormal superhero means she simply ''can't'' commit to the kind of relationship he wants. She also points out that Crackerjack's assholery is a major reason why their relationship works so well; he is simply too self-absorbed to care that she spends most of her waking time training, foils bank robberies on date night and is too preoccupied with superheroing to remember birthdays and anniversaries.
