* ''WesternAnimation/GravityFalls'' gives Robbie one. In a bid to win back Wendy's heart, he lies about writing a song for her — a song which turns out to have a [[SubliminalSeduction subliminal message]] in it. When Dipper finds out about the message and tells Wendy, Robbie is left with two choices; either let the mind-control accusation stand or admit he didn't really write the song. He picks the latter, and Wendy dumps him for good.

* In the ''WesternAnimation/SouthPark'' episode "Let them eat goo", Cartman sums up the resolution to the episode's conflict as one. Basically, Wendy and some of the other kids want heathier foods that are better for the environment served at lunch rather than the fatty meat-based lunches they've been getting, while Cartman wants to keep the same great tasting unhealthy garbage as always. An attempt at a compromise is made when Cartman is in the hospital (he had a heart attack from anger), to replace the lunch food with a plant-based substitute that looks and tastes exactly the same. However, when Cartman finds out the truth, he is surprising okay with it. This is because Cartman didn't like having to be forced to eat heathier, and as he points out (much to the disappointment of Wendy and the others), while the plant-based substitute is better for the environment, it is the same kind of processed fatty garbage they were already eating for lunch. He actually closes his speech off stating that freedom of speech doesn't matter because he is under the impression that Wendy and the other just wanted an excuse to eat unhealthy foods free of guilt.
