* ''WesternAnimation/TheVentureBrothers'': The episode "Blood of The Father, Heart of Steel", focuses on 21 trying to pay Doc using an old comic book--specifically, ''Marvel Comics #1'' in near-pristine condition, which 21 claims to be a family heirloom worth around 500,000 dollars. Naturally, [[WorthlessYellowRocks Doc scoffs at the fact that it's worth anything]] (it says 10 cents on the cover) and gives it to his son Hank, who immediately takes it out of the wrapping, and over the run of the episode's events, it gets ripped, chewed on, shot, and used as toilet paper. The episode is even told in AnachronicOrder, with various scene transitions being marked by a counter showing how much value the comic has lost--by the end of the timeline (and the start of the episode), it is completely worthless.

** While attempting to find out if the world really has stopped having sound, Timmy causes a domino effect in his living room which destroys a Fabergé Egg, a Ming vase, the Art/VenusDeMilo, and ''The Holy Grail''.
