1* [[http://badassmuthas.com/pages/comic.php?53 This]] ''Badass Muthas'' strip features ''AWESOME'' toe disinfection.
2* ''Webcomic/{{Blip}}'':
3** [[http://rakugakiwall.com/blip/archive/493 This comic]]. Don't tell me you didn't imagine some cheesy action music in the background.
4** Does a blind date merit a dramatic close-up and a musical {{sting}}? [[http://rakugakiwall.com/blip/archive/322 Absolutely.]]
5** Interestingly, the comic also pulls the opposite trick, taking genuinely awesome moments and [[http://rakugakiwall.com/blip/archive/357 deliberately]] [[http://rakugakiwall.com/blip/archive/358 undermining]] [[http://rakugakiwall.com/blip/archive/359 them]] through sarcastic narration.
6* Rowan from ''Webcomic/BoyAndDog'' is a baby, so he celebrates every little thing he learns.
7* While it's been fetish fuel for sometime, only ''Webcomic/Collar6'' could make SPANKING [[http://collar6.com/2010/collar-6-6-11-2010 this]] intense!
8* [[http://www.commissionedcomic.com/?p=149 This]] ''Commissioned'' strip. Chess has never been so ''epic''.
9* ''Webcomic/DaisyOwl'': [[http://www.daisyowl.com/comic/2008-07-27 "All is not lost. There is still hope. There is still honey. That is my dream."]]
10* How does the artist of ''Webcomic/DanAndMabsFurryAdventures'' make behind-the-scenes stuff (i.e. talking about her comic-making process) more exciting? [[http://www.missmab.com/Comics/Vol_1362.php UNNECESSARY DYNAMIC POSES!]]
11* A staple of T-Rex from ''Webcomic/DinosaurComics''. Ryan North also makes use of BoldInflation in his comments to announce awesome things, such as '''posting some photos!'''
12* In ''[[http://dragonmail.fadri.org/index.php?lg=en&pg=307 Dragon Mail]]'', when Boltrin grows to defeat Azgrariel.
13* The premise of ''Webcomic/DrFrost'' is of psychologists and counselors diagnosing disorders and mental health problems. But it plays out like a mystery series.
14* ''Webcomic/ElGoonishShive'':
15** [[http://www.egscomics.com/?date=2008-02-27 This]] strip.
16** Tedd also pulls this with [[http://www.egscomics.com/?date=2007-02-02 the equivalent of a grade school science fair project]]. This is standard fare for Tedd though.
17** Even Susan gets in on this, [[http://www.egscomics.com/?date=2010-05-17 here]]. And [[http://www.egscomics.com/?date=2007-08-14 here]]. A girl entering her school wearing pants has never been so dramatic.
18** On top of that, we get the [[http://www.egscomics.com/?date=2010-10-25 most overdone rating of a You Tube video]] in the history of fiction.
19** To say nothing of [[http://www.egscomics.com/?date=2012-07-31 the importance of giving accurate movie reviews]].
20* Eddie [[http://eecomics.net/EEArchives/?strip_id=1155 does this]] in ''Webcomic/EmergencyExit''.
21* ''FW! Adventures'' [[http://www.fw-adventures.com/2009/05/01/65-forest-no-scramble/ parodies]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1_WMa42spAs this]] with a [[strike:Scrabble]] [[SeriousBusiness Scramble Game]]!
22* An early ''Webcomic/GeneCatlow'' strip introducing us to Cotton Taylor shows him carrying out his tech duties, including paperwork, with unbridled enthusiasm.
23* [[http://www.mgcomics.com/GOTF/?ep=1283581196 This]] ''Webcomic/GhostsOfTheFuture'' strips makes scooping ice cream awesome.
24* ''Webcomic/GirlGenius'':
25** Partially Straight: [[http://www.girlgeniusonline.com/comic.php?date=20070525 You've never]] [[http://www.girlgeniusonline.com/comic.php?date=20070606 seen a coffee machine]] [[http://www.girlgeniusonline.com/comic.php?date=20070618 fixed like this.]] "[[http://www.girlgeniusonline.com/comic.php?date=20070620 Spark Roast Coffee]]: [[http://www.girlgeniusonline.com/comic.php?date=20070622 Perfection in]] [[http://www.girlgeniusonline.com/comic.php?date=20070625 Every Cup.]]" Still, when taking a sip of it results in [[http://www.girlgeniusonline.com/comic.php?date=20070622 this]], it's some [[SugarWiki/FunnyMoments impressive]] coffee.
26** Straight: OTHAR TRYGVASSEN, '''{{GENTLEMAN ADVENTURER}}!'''
27** Inverted: [[http://www.girlgeniusonline.com/comic.php?date=20090720 "Why do I even HAVE one of those?"]]
28** [[http://www.girlgeniusonline.com/comic.php?date=20100830 Wooster's dramatic exit.]] Film/JamesBond couldn't have done it better.
29* ''Webcomic/{{Gosu}}'':
30** Gang Ryong [[spoiler:and later Doh Gyeom]] delivering dumplings should not be anywhere near as action-packed as it appears to be.
31** Wang Ahk whenever the issue of RockPaperScissors is brought up. Both his and Gang's skill in the game [[FridgeLogic makes sense when you think about it]].
32* The whole ''Webcomic/HandCommand'' that make from RockPaperScissors a SeriousBusiness.
33* The royal guard from ''Webcomic/HeroOhHero'' [[http://www.neorice.com/hoh_232 has a unique teaching style]].

37* In ''Webcomic/LittleRobotBigScaryWorld'', one of the most important items BIP collects is an ordinary rock dubbed "Nice Rock."
38* ''Webcomic/{{Maliki}}'':
39** Maliki is the king of Awesome Overdosing. You don't even have to know French to see [[http://www.maliki.com/Strips/070911_pingpong.jpg EPIC ping-pong]] or how testing a brand-new litter box can become [[http://www.maliki.com/Strips/080909_magiiie.jpg a bombastic display of magic]].
40** Not to mention [[http://maliki.com/en/strips/gok-s01e01-2/ Game of Kermesse]] a five strips arc, taking the idea of town fair to whole new proportions, culminating in a VehicularCombat.
41* ''Webcomic/{{morphE}}'': The InsufferableGenius chess grandmaster Billy Thatcher has spun his chess career into ''Pawnography'', a trashy reality TV ShowWithinAShow, complete with melodramatic B-plots and alleged love children.
42* The Slice of Life webcomic ''Webcomic/NectarOfTheGods'' has these kinds of moments [[http://www.drunkduck.com/Nectar_of_the_Gods/ throughout the entire comic]], considering it's just a comic about [[TheBartender bartenders and mixing drinks]]. The writer uses a bunch of plots, [[EvilInc some evil corporation]], rivalries and drama that might make the comic slightly stray from its SliceOfLife setting just enough to make it interesting.
43** Bacchus is constantly making mixing drinks seem more epic than anyone ever thought it could be. Some of these may occur in the [[GoodGuyBar protagonist's bar]] or in a tournament or possibly in the open air.
44** Apollo Vindread (The protagonist's Father) Is a Wine brewer of almost every kind of Grape known for wine. Sousuke Nitroyuu once came to his Vineyard to taste his wine, if he liked it, he would buy 20 crates of each wine! Apollo [[http://www.drunkduck.com/Nectar_of_the_Gods/index.php?p=709242 Decanted the Wine]] [[BattleAura with an Aura]] to make it taste so good that Sousuke bought all the wine he could.
45** Bacchus Creed (aka the Dragon God) makes a martini in the most [[http://www.drunkduck.com/Nectar_of_the_Gods/index.php?p=813298 elegantly epic way ever!]]
46** The Taste Judge, Harvey Spanner, [[http://www.drunkduck.com/Nectar_of_the_Gods/index.php?p=815132 had an incredibly difficult time spitting out the Martini]] (it's part of his job to spit it out) because the martini was so amazingly perfect for him, it was [[ImpossiblyDeliciousFood like liquid happiness]]. Another thing Harvey does is that every time he tastes two drinks that he has to judge in the [[TournamentArc Nectar of the Gods Tournament]], he makes judging epic by [[http://www.drunkduck.com/Nectar_of_the_Gods/index.php?p=802728 perfectly analyzing the drink with one taste]] and [[AGlassInTheHand Crushing the Glass]] [[http://www.drunkduck.com/Nectar_of_the_Gods/index.php?p=800206 of the Losing drink!]]
47* In ''Webcomic/{{Noblesse}}'' this trope is applied, to humorous effect to Rai [[http://www.webtoons.com/en/fantasy/noblesse/ep-50/viewer?title_no=87&episode_no=50 unlocking and opening a modern door for the first time.]]
48%%* Durkon of ''Webcomic/TheOrderOfTheStick'' uses the most important piece of wisdom he's ever received, and the lifetime he spent trying to comprehend that wisdom [[spoiler: to defeat a vampire spirit possessing him that's trying to destroy the world in the name of its evil god.]] %%What about this is 'Mundane'?

51* ''Webcomic/{{Paranatural}}'':
52** This is a plot point because spirit attacks get a boost from flourishing moves, known as "flexing your spirit muscles". Chapter 1 has the [[http://paranatural.net/comic/chapter-1-page-13/ "Super Max Speed-Changing Cool Technique"]] and the [[http://paranatural.net/comic/chapter-1-page-24/ soup can throw]], among other things.
53** Chapter 4: HITBALL. The second half is one big anime parody of dodgeball.
54** This exchange:
55--->'''Max:''' W-what are you doing?!\
56'''Ed:''' She's...She's!! ''CHANGING THE SUBJECT!''
57* At the end of the year-long ''Webcomic/PennyAndAggie'' arc "The Popsicle War," the title characters and their friends celebrate their social neutralization of the bully ringleader Karen [[http://www.pennyandaggie.com/index.php?p=820 with]] [[http://www.pennyandaggie.com/index.php?p=822 fireworks]], a custom normally reserved for national holidays of independence.

65** No John, ''Film/ConAir'' is not an awesome movie. There is no reason to [[GeekReferencePool reference this]], [[MainstreamObscurity nobody's even watched it]]. I mean, come on, [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=003500 you've done this once already]], so you really sho- [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=003831 WILL YOU STOP IT WITH THOSE BUNNIES???]]
66** Dave Strider is the magician of the mundame made mirthful, turning any sentence into an orgy of mixed metaphor and Freudian slipping down any slope he can.
67** Also, the autoresponder's description of how he would confess to Jake.
68--->'''TT:''' If it's me going through with this, hypothetically,\
69'''TT:''' I'm not dropping some limp wristed shucks buster on his ass, and praying to the horse gods of irony for reciprocation.\
70'''TT:''' There will be no rocking back and forth on pigeon-toed feet, while my face [[LuminescentBlush flushes]] with the blood of a thousand timid [[{{Bishounen}} bishies]].\
71'''TT:''' I will not hold one tentative hand behind my head like a flustered asshole from an Asian cartoon, nor will [[SweatDrop an oversized bead of sweat]] overlap ludicrously with my visage.\
72'''TT:''' If it's me, I'm going all out.\
73'''TT:''' Oceans will rise. Cities will fall. Volcanoes will erupt.\
74'''TG:''' uuh\
75'''TT:''' What I'm saying is, it's going to be a scene, and bystanders need to brace themselves.

81* ''Webcomic/QuestionableContent'':

91* From ''Blog/SliceOfLife'':
