History ButForMeItWasTuesday / FanWorks

* ''Fanfic/AvengersInfiniteWars'';
** When Scott wakes up from his Giant-Man-induced coma to learn that Cad Bane has stolen a record of potential future Jedi for the Separatists, Pietro observes that this is just a typical Monday/Tuesday for the Avengers (Tap clarifies that based on his calendar, it's actually Thursday back on Earth).
** When the remaining Earth-bound Avengers learn of Karness Muur and his resurrection after the threat of Kaecilius has been dealt with, Tony observes that a world-ending threat is just another Tuesday these days, and Clint reflects that he misses the day such threats weren't a regular occurrence.

* ''Fanfic/TheBoysRealJustice''
** Where Vought and affiliated heroes are unfamiliar with the concept of the multiverse, this kind of knowledge is so common on the Justice League's Earth that it's observed basically any teenager could learn the facts they're sharing with a quick browse of the Internet.
** As the Boys try to find each other while hiding in Gotham, it's observed that saying they're in the hotel that was attacked by the Joker doesn't really help anyone narrow down the options.

* As an ironic inversion of canon, in ''Fanfic/CyclesUponCycles'', what the Citadel refers to as the "Koprulu Contact War", the Koprulu sector call the "Backyard Skirmish".
* ''Fanfic/BoldoresAndBoomsticks'':
** Doomsday-predicting Professor Cypress believes that Professor Oak is mocking him when he asks if it's Tuesday after hearing about the newest possible catastrophe. Oak responds that he was referencing the number of near catastrophes in recent years.
** The events of the [[Anime/Pokemon2000 Shamouti Island Incident]] (Saving the world, fulfilling an ancient prophecy referencing him by name, and riding a Legendary into battle) are described as just another Tuesday for Ash.
** While explaining the abilities of Aura, Blake calls back to the example above and describes [[Recap/RWBYV2E4PaintingTheTown Yang being punched through a concrete pillar by a stolen military prototype about to be sold to terrorists]] as a typical Tuesday for Team RWBY.
** Team RWBY is touched by the sincere gratitude the people of Earth express for what to them was normal Huntress duty.

* Invoked on various occasions in the ''Fanfic/{{Interventions}}'' series;
** When Peter meets Xander in the original timeline, Xander is struck by the notion that Peter has no problem with the idea of traveling in time but is put out at the notion of confronting the literal source of all Evil while doing so, Peter just observing that everything's relative.
** In the timeline created after the heroes assist in Sunnydale, when Spike tells Micah that he met Nikki a few years ago from his perspective and a few months ago from Nikki's, Micah just accepts that it's a time-travel thing while Spike muses that it's still confusing to him when he actually participated in the events.
** Later on, during Xander's first date with Elle, when Willow suggests that Elle ask Xander about the time he saved the world, Xander has to ask which time that was, affirming Elle's positive opinion of him.

* In ''Fanfic/TheSecretKeeper'', when [[spoiler:Seth]] arrives in St Mungo's, he is basically subject to this when he sees a man with literal cauliflower ears and the man shrugs it off with the explanation that he had a row with his wife.
* Invoked in ''Fanfic/SpiderManAndPowerGirl''; when the dimensionally-displaced Power Girl reveals that she's from another Earth, Spider-Man and the Human Torch each separately ask if she means an alternate reality Earth or the restored Counter-Earth, demonstrating how used to unusual circumstances these heroes are on either Earth.

* In ''Fanfic/TimeAnomaly'', once he first hears about the time Rory shoved Hitler into a closet, Tony is continually amazed that these people could have lived the kind of life where doing that ''wasn't'' the most interesting thing to happen to them.
* In ''Fanfic/TokraApocalypse'', while time travel isn't an everyday part of their activities, the SGC are still fairly nonchalant using that as an explanation for Henry Winchester's presence after he appears in Dean and Sam's room in the SGC through their closet.
* In the ''Franchise/MassEffect''/''Franchise/{{Halo}}'' crossover ''Fanfic/WhenThereWasATomorrow'' and its sequel ''Fanfic/GuiltySparks'', Shepard and his crew are ''worryingly blase'' about the number of people who seem to feel that Shepard is an affront to the gods, which at the conclusion of the second story include The Covenant, the vast majority of the Batarian species, the Blood Pack, the Reapers, multiple mercenary bands, Cerberus, Guilty Spark and his legions of sentinels, and Colonel Ackerson of the Office of Naval Intelligence. They also feel this way about suicide missions, with Legion stating that a mission with only a fifty-three percent chance of success is "Significantly higher" than the missions they usually undertake.

* ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/14213862/15/Chaos-Theory-Z Chaos Theory Z]]'': During Raditz's rematch with the Z Fighters, he fails to recognize Yamcha, whom he killed during the first fight (Yamcha having been resurrected in the meantime).

* ''WebAnimation/LanaSkyesParole'': Back when she was Chief Prosecutor, Lana Skye, [[spoiler:[[ForcedIntoEvil under Damon Grant's orders]]]], crushed a rookie attorney [[spoiler:with forged evidence]], but soon forgot the event as it was another step in [[spoiler:protecting Ema]]. The rookie attorney was none other than Kristoph Gavin, and he reminds of it [[spoiler:along with all-but-confessing that her own corrupted action is what was let him to become the AmmoralAttorney who frames Phoenix for using forged evidence]]. In the present, Lana now [[ItsAllMyFault blames herself]] for her own desperate actions that led to Kristoph's present self.

* ''Fanfic/AndrogyninjasADropOfPoison'': Sakura realized she was LovingAShadow after [[ForWantOfANail she was paired with Sasuke for a training match]] during their last year in the Academy. Despite her only managing to land a couple hits on him, [[ArrogantKungFuGuy his ego]] was wounded badly enough that he ranted about how civilian-born shinobi like her would never be anything more than 'paper ninja' or outright CannonFodder. He repeats the latter insult several times after they become teammates. When Sakura finally hits her RageBreakingPoint and attacks him for his dismissiveness towards civilian lives in the wake of the Konoha Crush attempt and [[spoiler:the deaths of her parents]], Sasuke looks at her blankly when she asserts that "We are not cannon fodder." PlayedWith in that Sasuke ''does'' recall insulting her, but doesn't comprehend why she still identifies as being civilian-born; she's earned his respect as a kunoichi, spurring him to mentally separate her from 'their kind' [[TheyJustDontGetIt without seeing how that's part of the problem]].

* ''Fanfic/TheNewAdventuresOfInvaderZim'': At one point in Season 2 Episode 4, Steve lampshades how odd his and Viera's lives have become since befriending Dib, when he notes that the current situation (Viera being chased by the film crew she was interning for, at the behest of the main actress, who has turned into a banshee) should ''not'' seem as normal to him as it does.

* In the ''Anime/PokemonTheSeries'' and ''WesternAnimation/InfinityTrain'' crossover, ''Fanfic/InfinityTrainKnightOfTheOrangeLily'', Grace's reply about how she [[spoiler:murdered Utahoshi, the leader of the 400 Rabbits Car]] is a plain "So what?" not realizing how much anguish she put on [[spoiler:Utahoshi's best friend Kisaragi to brainwash a young boy to be Utahoshi's sucessor and preparing a plan to exterminate the Apex.]] When Tokio -- who was heavily affected by the spoilers above -- reminds her of it, she just looks at her number, her knife and repeats her "So what?". When the rest of White Gestalt name off all the victims she hurt, she just shouts at them "Don't know, don't care!"

* In ''Fanfic/MyHeroesReborn'', Bakugo genuinely forgot he suicide baited Izuku until someone posts about it online. It causes a HeelRealization for the boy that he'd both do something like that and then forget about it.

---> '''Bereto:''' Now I know you. You were that woman that my sister had fought. You gained this new power out of nowhere.
---> '''Shez:''' ''(smirking proudly)'' Yes, indeed. I am the same woman, now stronger than-
---> '''Bereto:''' [[UnknownRival What was your name again?]]
---> '''(Thud!)'''
---> '''Shez:''' ''(anime fall)'' [[YouHaveGotToBeKiddingMe SERIOUSLY?!]]
---> '''Yuri:''' ''(shrugging)'' [[ButForMeItWasTuesday You were probably not that memorable.]]

** Later, Kenryū assumes Ichigo time traveled to help save Rurichiyo from the assassins targeting her, but Ichigo has absolutley no idea what he's talking about. While he does eventually remember, the event in question was so routine that it doesn't stick out to him at all.

-->'''Policeman:''' Well, well. A wizard. One of Hogwarts finest, dropping his wand and getting belted by a mere muggle?\\

* In ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/8904050/22/A-Muggle-Technicality A Muggle Technicality]]'', Fenrir Greyback encounters an unjustly-imprisoned Muggle werewolf during an Azkaban break-in staged by Voldemort.

** Heather idetifies Hallr and his men as the ones who captured her and her parents before selling them as thralls to then King of Vedrarfjord. Hallr doesn't remember her as he had captured and sold lots of people as thralls.

* Played with in ''Fanfic/MassEffectEndOfDays''. A Batarian rebel is intending to have his revenge against a Hegemony officer who killed the woman he loved, remarking the officer may not remember her, but will remember ''him''. However, the officer actually remembers... which makes him almost shit himself once he realizes the former slave is just outside the door.

* ''[[Fanfic/ApotheosisMHA Apotheosis]]'': The day that All Might crushed his dreams dramatically altered the course of Izuku's life, driving him to villainy in order to ''seize'' the power required to change society. To All Might, Izuku was JustAKid -- one who's now working to destroy everything he's fought for due to a bit of [[CondescendingCompassion well-meaning]] [[BrutalHonesty but poor advice]]. All for One calls him out on crushing Izuku's dreams without any consideration; later, during one of their confrontations, Izuku asks him point blank if he would have spared him a single thought if he hadn't become a villain.

** The sadistic mass murdering MadDoctor Professor Kabuto also has this mentality, viewing his victims as little more than lab rats. Given he refuses to refer to any creature who he has no respect for by [[ItIsDehumanizing their species with a number,]] it's little surprise.

* In ''Fanfic/SonOfTheSannin'', Naruto fights against Orochimaru's genin trio, Kin, Dosu and Zaku, twice (first in the Land of Rice Fields arc, and later in the Sound Invasion). Come Chapter 73, Naruto doesn't even recognize them when they're assigned to team up with him for a mission (after the invasion they were captured and put under Anko's custody, who is now their sensei). They're naturally annoyed at having left such a weak impression on him.

* In the mass crossover ''Fanfic/PowerRangersMythos'', when Tommy, Z and Flynn learn that their current foe, the mysterious alchemist Avanth, is likely responsible for mass cow purchases in Wales, the Mythos Rangers speculate that he might be using them for potion ingredients, and muse that they've all heard weirder in their Ranger careers.

** Raven, as monstrous as she is, at least as the decency to avert this when she comes across two people that survived her raids.

* In ''Fanfic/TheDimensionalDrifter'', Judai isn't nervous at all that he landed in a foreign dimension because it's only Tuesday. The narration even lampshades this, saying that anyone else would have a panic attack at this situation.

* In ''Fanfic/RivalsSeries'', Yuuri treats this as an awful fact of life. The day Viktor insulted him and crushed his dreams when Yuuri attempted to get his autograph during Viktor's Junior Grand Prix Finals was the day Yuuri's life took a drastic turn. It was the day Yuuri's previous adoration of Viktor turned into a life-long burning hatred and ignited Yuuri's desire to surpass Viktor in ice skating. Yuuri realizes that its likely unlikely that Viktor even remembers it as Yuuri was just one of many fans that day. [[spoiler: In a subversion, Viktor is absolutely crushed that he doesn't remember their first meeting while Yuuri is bitterly accepting of it.]]

* In ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/13167363/15/To-Undo-it-All To Undo It All]]'', the captains go to [[PeggySue Ichigo]] when it seems Toshiro has attacked Kyouraku, seeing if he can tell them whether Toshiro is a traitor. But not only does Ichigo have over a decade of memories to sort through, but they include a war against a MasterOfIllusion and another where the enemy side had two separate [[{{Shapeshifting}} shape shifters]], plus "a whole load of bullshit spread throughout". He can name at least a dozen events where captains attacked each other and the current date isn't significant enough to ring any bells.
