* Happens twice in the ''WesternAnimation/JohnnyTest'' episode "Stinkin' Johnny": In order to get an HD TV to watch a wrestling match, Johnny tries to play baseball so he can hit the ball to the TV to break it so his dad would have to buy a new one. But, he hits it too hard, and accidentally destroys his dad's windshield, causing him to count down before he starts yelling at him. Then at the end of the episode, Johnny, Susan and Mary are later grounded and barred from TV and the lab. They decide to play some baseball instead, but Johnny hits the ball too hard again and breaks a window and the new HD TV they had just brought. He then counts down again before their parents yell at him.
