Bluebottle from The Goon Show has learned some Genre Savviness after being explosivelydeaded in most episodes — he seems to know that his appearance will always result in his deading, and has taken some fairly extensive steps to avoid it (such as leaving Neddie tied to a pile of dynamite in England, then going to the middle of a desert in America in about four seconds). Of course, it fails, but that's because he hasn't quite figured the finer points of the Rule of Funny.
