** The Frantics, on their comedy album ''Boot to the Head'', in the song "Tai Kwan Leep." The actual song is preceded by a sketch in which a guru is leading a class in meditation; he's repeatedly interrupted by an impatient man named Ed Gruberman, who wants to get on to the part where they learn to use the eponymous martial art to "start trashing bozos."
-->'''Guru:''' The only use of ''tai kwan leep'' is self-defense. Do you know who said that? Kee Ro Nee, the great teacher.
-->'''Ed Gruberman:''' Well, the best defense is a good offense. You know who said that? Mel, the cook on ''Alice.''
** A late 1990s/early 2000s Ad Council commercial on lung cancer and secondhand smoke, where a waitress develops lung cancer from a(n ironically courteous and good) customer who smoked at the restaurant. The other customers are either rude or harass the waitress, including a group of frat boys who sexually harass the waitress by calling her "Flo" (referencing Polly Holiday's character).
