-->'''Xander:''' Be still my heart. Oh wait, it is.

-->'''Dr. Taub:''' House always has an agenda, just screwing with us isn't...
-->'''Dr. Kutner:''' Yeah he'd never do that. Oh wait- He already did last year!

-->'''Lorelai:''' Hey, let's look into each other's eyes and say "I wish I were you" at exactly the same time - maybe we'll pull a [[FreakyFridayFlip Freaky Friday]].
-->'''Rory:''' Or we can just pretend that we did and you can go around acting really immature. Oh, wait...

-->'''Bartlet:''' If only technology could invent some way to get in touch with you in an emergency. Some sort of telephonic device with a personalized number we could call to let you know that we needed you. Perhaps it would look something ''[grabs Leo's pager]'' like *this*, Mr. Moto!
-->'''Bartlet:''' I'm not an economist, but... no, wait, I am an economist.

--> If only I had the Doctor's biological code...oh, wait a minute, I do! I've got [[GoodThingYouCanHeal his]] [[ALoveToDismember hand!]]

--> '''Fernando''': Do you know what my family will do to your people when they find out??
--> '''Fillipod''': What, [[spoiler:crack our planet in half?]] '''Oh wait'''.

--> Is this any way to prepare our children for the adult world? By making them believe that authority figures often rely on unfair and arbitrary rules not based on any kind of logic or...
--> Wait, that actually may be a pretty good way to prepare them for the adult world.

--> '''Decoy:''' When I'm the queen, I'm gonna have you go clean toilets! Teeheehee!

---> '''Watts:''' Oh! And let's not forget your deal with Raven Branwen. Get all your enemies together in one place, so you'd have ''a shot at revenge!''

--> '''Raphael''': "Oh look, an alien invasion, we don't see that everyday... oh wait.. ''yea we do.''

** A ''much'' darker version can come up, if Shepard betrays [[spoiler: Wrex at the Genophage cure]], the latter will try to kill them, and if Ashley is killed during [[spoiler: Udina's attempted coup]], he will sarcastically suggest Shepard call Ashley to help, and then say "Oh right, you killed her too! And it's time you found out how that feels!"

* ''WebVideo/SchaffrillasProductions'' does this usually when he realizes something that he didn't thought before. An example of this is in his review (aka rant) of Film/Mulan2020 when he uses the phrase in the moment where he discusses that at least the lead actress is a good person.[[spoiler: She isn't.]]

-->'''Lorelai:''' Hey, let's look into each other's eyes and say "I wish I were you" at exactly the same time - maybe we'll pull a FreakyFriday.

* Political webcomic ''I Drew This'' has a good example. The artist, David is making a comic in which Dick Cheney is out hunting, but due to incompetence hits a person in the face, and THEN makes the guy apologize for not looking more like a bird. David ''thinks'' this is totally original, but then Joe the Liberal Eagle comes up with the paper, which has the headline "All That Cheney Stuff You Just Said". Last panel is of David sobbing onto his drawing board saying "Satire is dead!"

* ''WebAnimation/ZeroPunctuation'': Yahtzee's comparison between ''Franchise/FinalFantasy'' and ''Franchise/StarWars'', with ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyXIII'' being "what you'd get if you took out everything that was good about ''Star Wars'' and replaced it with [[ConspicuousCG dodgy CGI]] and [[{{Wangst}} laughable angst]]. Oh wait."

-->'''Marty:''' Well, if you're so sure you're indispensable maybe you should run for president. Oh, wait. You did. Five times.
-->'''Frasier:''' They wouldn't love you so much if it weren't my ideas!
-->'''Marty:''' Right, because you need a Ph.D to think of repainting the lobby. Oh, wait. You don't.
-->'''Frasier:''' Would you stop doing that!
-->'''Marty:''' You're right. It's not an effective way to argue. Oh, wait. It is!

-->'''Frasier:''' My God! What is wrong with me? Why can't I find a single woman who's interested in me?
-->'''Roz:''' Those are two different questions, really, so we should just sit down and talk them both over. Oh, wait, I can't, '''''[[SuddenlyShouting BECAUSE I'M IN LABOUR!]]'''''

* At one episode of ''Series/{{Becker}}'', John tells Chris's ex-husband a [[ShaggyDogStory fairly pointless]] story that ends with him and some friends watching the sunrise - he mentions this as if it was the most interesting part of it. Roger replies, "[[DeadpanSnarker There's something you don't see everyday]]. Oh wait, you do."

* In ''VideoGame/StarCraftII: Wings of Liberty'', Jim Raynor may say this when you click on him in between missions.

* In [[http://www.nuklearpower.com/2008/05/08/episode-989-like-riding-a-bike/ this]] ''Webcomic/EightBitTheater'' strip, Red Mage informs Black Mage that they made a new enemy. Black Mage says he'll add it to the list, but Oh Wait, the list already includes "[[DestructiveSavior Everyone]] [[ZeroPercentApprovalRating in the]] [[DesignatedHero world]]".

-->'''Abnegazar:''' Or what? You'll kill me? Gosh, I might end up suffering eternal torment as punishment for my sins! Oh, wait - I already am!

-->'''Darkseid:''' It's called [[AgonyBeam the Agony Matrix]]. Direct neural stimulation of pain receptors. All of them. Imagine the worst pain you've ever felt in your life times a thousand. Now imagine that pain continuing forever. Oh, that's right. You don't ''have'' to imagine.

-->'''Leela:''' YoureJustJealous!\\

* In the ''WesternAnimation/FamilyGuy'' episode "Chick Cancer" when Stewie decides that women respond when you treat them like crap:
-->'''Stewie''': Hey, babe. What do you say, we going out Saturday night?\\

'''Stewie''': No. If I was being mean, when you opened the door I would have said, "Oh, hey, Ray Liotta, is Olivia home? Oh, wait, you're Olivia." You see, I thought you were Ray Liotta because your skin has the texture of a decorative autumn squash. So, I'll pick you up at 7:00?
-->'''Olivia''': (in tears) That sounds wonderful.

-->'''Quagmire''': (furious) ...and by the way, driving a Prius doesn't make you Jesus Christ--OH,WAIT!--You don't ''believe'' in Jesus Christ, or ''any'' religion for that matter, because (mockingly) "religion is for idiots".
