* ''VideoGame/{{Tamagotchi}}'':
** On ''My Tamagotchi Forever'', your Tamagotchi will send you a warning saying "I have to go to the toilet. Quick!" when its toilet meter is low. If you ignore this message after two hours, the Tamagotchi will poop on the floor (though sometimes the accident will occur beforehand).
** A similar Japanese game, ''Discovered on LINE! Tamagotchi'' also uses this feature, with your Tamagotchi sending you a message via line that it has to go to the bathroom with a unique phrase, ranging from phrases shared among characters like "I'm gonna have an accident!" (which just so happens to be the most common one) and "I want to use the bathroom now" to character-specific ones like Violetchi's "It's not gonna smell like flowers soon..." (Violetchi is characterized as being an InnocentFlowerGirl).

* The ''Series/SesameStreet'' special “Elmo’s Potty Time”, being a special focused on [[ToiletTrainingPlot toilet-training]], features about three of these:
** Baby Bear has one while he, Gordon and Elmo are discussing Curly’s potty training. Elmo mistakes his [[PottyDance fidgeting]] for his “potty animal” dance that he did earlier, but he clarifies that it’s more of a “uncomfortable fidget” and exclaims he needs to go. Gordon lets him use the bathroom in his apartment.
** Not too long after that, Grover rushes in, also having to go. Thankfully, the Hooper’s Store is open, so he goes to the bathroom there.
** Later, Curly Bear has shoved herself under a table and refuses to come back out. Elmo and Baby Bear are confused as to why, but Gina quickly figures out that Curly has to go “poo-poo” (or “woo-woo”, as the Bear family calls it). Thankfully, Gina has a potty for kids in-training like her in her office, and so, Curly does a “woo-woo” in the potty for the first time.
