* "The Nose", a short story by Creator/NikolaiGogol, is about a man [[MakesJustAsMuchSenseInContext whose nose flees and disguises itself as a human]]. It should be mentioned that the Russian name of the story, "Nos", is the Russian word for "dream" backwards.

* On an episode of ''Series/ItsGarryShandlingsShow'', Garry failed the written portion of his driver's license renewal test. Upset with his brain for being so stupid, he hooks a camera up to his TV and points it into his head so he can see his brain. The screen reveals a fat guy (character actor Stuart Pankin) lying in a hammock, who berates Garry for not challenging him enough, and they make a deal with each other: Garry will stimulate his brain more, and the brain will work with him. While they have this conversation, other body parts come to visit the brain, including a short, bald man referred to as "Mr. P" (pancreas) and his larynx ([[HeyItsThatGuy Dave Coulier]]), with whom he argues.

* An infamous 90s Reebok advert went a bit further than this and showed a disembodied giant hairy belly chasing an athletic man through a city, mostly by hopping gelatinously but culminating in a motorbike chase, while repeatedly shouting "Belly's gonna get ya!". [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lw7Um1gTcrs You can view the madness here]].

* [[Wiki/SCPFoundation SCP-1319]] consists of a researcher's individual upper and lower halves who got fed up with each other and decided to split -- literally. What's really bizarre about this example (besides the obvious) is that neither half of his body exhibits the personality of the original researcher; they're both, for all intents and purposes, entirely "new" entities.

Some commercials feature parts of the human body with their own separate personalities and desires. The body part in question usually has something to do with the product being sold, and may or may not be connected to a full human body.

* In an episode of ''Scrubs,'' Carla sees Turk's mole talking to her.

* At least two ''Peanuts'' strips had various parts of Snoopy's body expressing opinions of their own--usually connected with jogging, which meant the feet said a lot. One of these strips ended when his heart commented, "Just remember, boys - if I go, we all go!" to which the feet remarked, "That's scary!" and another part said, "Shut up and keep jogging."

* In a RobotChicken sketch, William Shatner's toupee goes out and lives a second life as a James-Bond style secret agent while he sleeps. He still hasn't figured out where the medals keep coming from.

* How about in ''WesternAnimation/{{Futurama}}'', with Leela's ''singing'' [[StealthPun Susan-Boil]]?
* In RupturedAppendix episode of ''RockosModernLife'', Rocko's appendix (and all his other organs) talk...and even have personalities. It turns out it's AllJustADream, though.

* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_V1OwW6dQ3E An Australian Ad]] for ''Tooheys Extra Dry'' features a tongue which dislodges itself from its sleeping owner's mouth before wiggling itself to a party, where it dives into a bathtub of ice and bottles of beer, wraps itself around the ''Tooheys Extra Dry'' and drags it back to its owner who wakes up wondering why he has a bottle in his mouth.
