* ''Series/TwoAndAHalfMen'' has an episode where Charlie invites his latest girlfriend ([[OedipusComplex a near doppleganger for his own mother]]) and her two kids. Jake gives Charlie a series of advice on how to handle the kids: don't rub their heads, don't call them "little dudes", don't raise your hand and say "high five" and don't ask if they would like ice cream. When they arrive, cue Alan doing everything Jake had warned against, to the dismay of everyone around. Alan doesn't even notice and enthusiastically plows through the entire list.

* Jacob from ''Series/AbbottElementary'' wants to be a Coolteacher ''so'' badly, but just comes off as the earnest, socially awkward dweeb he is, and all his attempts at using slang or relating to teen culture just makes his students pity him at best, or laugh at him at worst. (It's to the point where his nickname among his students is "Mr. C," standing for "Mr. ''Corny''", [[InsultOfEndearment albeit said with affection]].) He actually [[ExploitedTrope exploits]] this trope in "Desking," when an InUniverse [[MemeticMutation meme]] leads to students standing on their desks and jumping from surface to surface. Concerned that someone will inevitably get hurt, the teachers use varying methods (reason, threat of punishment outright removing desks) to try to put a stop to it, but nothing works... until Jacob films a [=TikTok=] where he tries the trend himself. Instantly, desking is uncool, and the students knock it off.

** PlayedForLaughs again with the Twelfth Doctor's CharacterDevelopment: Thanks in part to a brief stretch of time when he's having TheLastDance, he becomes less of a GrumpyOldMan in Series 9, revealing his electric guitar hobby and sonic sunglasses (because he's "all about wearable technology" now) and a more casual wardrobe than Series 8's smart suits. In the end, though, no matter how cool he tries to be. he tends to end up looking like a dork because he's still a millennia-old Time Lord who looks like a man in his 50s, has NoSocialSkills, and calls himself such nicknames as "Doctor Funkenstein".

** In-universe, Charles and Oliver are often baffled by the slang of younger generations and make awkward attempts to replicate it--Charles latches onto the word "rando" but combines it with an EyeAmWatchingYou gesture that doesn't make sense, while Oliver's pronunciation of the ShipNamePormanteau is gleefully awkward.
