Perhaps we can have a picture of Wile E. Coyote for this trope (This is perhaps the best I can think of right now, although in this case, he's hammered upwards through shock IIRC, but that can still count). Anyone here with a better Wile E. Coyote picture or anything else?

Oh yes, and the caption could be something like "One could say he nailed the concept". Then again, open to better suggestions/wording.

I now go by Graf von Tirol.

Seen plenty of times, but I can't get a screenshot.

There's a great example from Evangelion, but this is as close as I've been able to get to the actual in-the-ground part. Here's a larger version of the in-the-water one.

I like the original suggestion, as it illustrates that Tropes Are Not Narrow. Same trope, just different direction.

Clock is set. I can live with the OP.

I agree on using the OP suggestion.

Done, potholed, and tagged. Caption or no?

I want to say something like, "Good thing it's not that rabbit, or he'd ask what's up." But I'm not sure it works well.

I did make a caption suggestion in my OP, but then again I think AD's suggestion is better.

The clock is up. I went ahead and added AD's caption. Locking up.
