Mr. Mendo: You're right, I should never have the courage of my own convictions. It's bad manners, you know...

Snob: If only the stab wounds and bullet holes had given us more clues!

- Ferr of the Freelance Astronauts, though most of them (aside from pipes!) have their moments.
- On Game Grumps, contrasting Arin's more emotional and bombastic personality is Dan's quieter and more sarcastic remarks. It's not to say he doesn't get pretty loud and worked up (just see any horror game he's made to play) but when it comes to getting a remark in edge-wise on a game or Arin, his sass game is on point. As seen when they're playing The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword:
Arin: Alright, so check this out. Watch this. Point the Wiimote and—
Dan: Mm-hmm. Teach me, Arin. Teach me.

Luke: Excuse you?
Alucard: Oh, I'm sorry, I like to dirty talk when someone's sucking my dick.

Alucard: And I'm Carmen Sandiego! Guess where I am!
Luke: I'm trying to have a serious conversation with you here.
Alucard: Oh, so am I. And I'm failing... and I'm sorry for that. It's just that I'm so agitated, because this blond little shit strolled into my room, destroyed my 70" plasma TV, and is trying to impress me like I'm his alcoholic father!

- Derek Lowe, author of pharmacology and chemistry blog In The Pipeline is a fine example. He is perhaps most well known for his "Things I Won't Work With" articles, wherein he describes a variety of chemical compounds and their dangers (which can often be summed up as "this hellaciously toxic chemical can dissolve human tissue" or "this compound explodes with comical ease") in a well-mannered but sarcastic tone.
"I’d call for all the chemists who’ve ever worked with a hexanitro compound to raise their hands, but that might be assuming too much about the limb-to-chemist ratio."
- Drew Gooden is very snarky, whether he's making fun of himself, his friends, or weird stuff on the internet; most of his humor comes from being blunt and sarcastic.
- John, and to a lesser extent, Dave, from John Dies at the End.
- Left 4 Speed 2's Nick. "A mall. How original."
- In The Lizzie Bennet Diaries the cast always has its moments, but Lizzie deserves a mention as a creative and Stepford Snarker Deadpan Snarker, as does Charlotte for her especially dry and pragmatic wit, which aligns well with her personality.
- Sarah in lonelygirl15 and, to a much lesser extent, LG15: the resistance.
- In Lovelace ½, the protagonist, Andi, tends to makes jokes this way. For example, in Part 9:
Andi: So, want me to write a computer program for you longhand? Best to give me a topic — I couldn't think of one. I'm not entirely sure what people write computer programs about. The book suggests it should just output 'hello, world,' but I’m not one to make that kind of unambiguous welcome to a planet I've barely even seen before.

- Nicholas Moran AKA "The Chieftain" is a former tanker who now serves as part of the historical committee for World of Tanks. In his free time he conducts talks about the history of armored warfare (no, not that one) and is known for his dry and sarcastic observations. He describes getting shot at as "a Significant Emotional Event" and demonstrates the ease\difficulty\occasional futility of escaping a knocked-out tank with by facing the camera with a perfectly unflappable "Oh my god, the tank is on fire." He also doesn't mind taking the occasional snarky jab at pilots.
"Let's say the aircraft actually does connect with your tank and your tank gets knocked out. Chances are you will survive this interaction, and then you simply get out, then you drop the six feet to the ground, you walk back, and get another tank. If the aircraft is hit by the .50-caliber round you are shooting at him, the pilot is now going through a Significant Emotional Event, because he is now thinking very hard about the pending earth-air interface and its nearly infinite coefficient of friction that he is about to demonstrate in a very violent physics lesson. He would like to avoid this as much as possible."

Taken up to 11 in the season six finale, where she calls out the Paul Brothers and their fans when she is doing a fake memorial service for Jake Paul.

"Rest in Hell, Jake Paul. You were taken from us too soon...but not soon enough."

- Pokemon Pals: Brock is a perfect example of this.

- The Weather: One skit had a real sarcastic caller, who had to put up with Robby's antics:

Caller: ...You don't want any mail?
(later)
Robby: This isn't my letter.
Caller: I know. I'm Dan.

- Whateley Universe:
- Phase does this with references most of the rest of the cast doesn't get. They return the favor. Girlfriend stuffed in a fridge, anyone?
- Prince Vlad Brâncoveanu/Lord Fredrick Paramount in response to one critic, bemoaning the fact that they had originally hoped to simply outlive him lamented, "He will bury us all!" To which, Lord Paramount asked whether the critic had a preference to a shovel with an ash handle or a pine handle for the job.

- The reporters for Yahoo's Odd News, especially Greg Proops, make humorous comments on everything they report about.
- Yu-Gi-Oh! The Abridged Series is full of delicious snarkiness, especially Kaiba, Yami Yugi and Bakura, though everyone gets their snarky moments
- Ben Croshaw very rarely feels the need to be deadpan—his humor's most often very blatant. Every so often, though...
- This guy is pretty sarcastic to his father while he's making himself ready to hang himself with his tie. Then again, that's pretty understandable after reading My Immortal.
- SMPLive features many characters who slip into this, in a perfect contrast with the server's many LargeHams.

- Technoblade falls into this to an extreme degree — he tends to have a monotone voice in general, and can't seem to go five minutes without making a snarky comment.
