* A RunningGag in the WebAnimation/SomethingAbout series is the heroes (with one exception) slapping their opponents -- with Bowser being a frequent target -- silly:
** "Something About Yoshi's Island" has Yoshi slap Baby Bowser, spank him, and then [[DestinationDefenestration throw him out a window]].
** In "Something About Kirby Super Star", Kirbo slaps the sun and moon and scolds them for fighting.
** In "Something About Super Mario 64", Mario slaps Bowser hard enough to outright paralyze him.
** In "Something About Super Mario World", Mario backhand slaps Bowser so hard it actually leaves Bowser's eyes bloodshot and echoes pretty loudly.
** In "Something About Smash Bros World of Light", Mario and Yoshi slap Bowser back and forth after Samus cuts off his growth to eclipse the galaxy. The last slap ''[[StrippedToTheBone turns him into Dry Bowser]]''.
** "Something About Kirby's Adventure" has Kirbo defeat Mr. Shine, Kracko, and King Dedede by slapping them.
** {{Subverted|Trope}} in "Melee Fox VS Speedrunner Mario", where Mario tries to backhand Fox, but he dodges it.
** In "Something About Super Metroid," Mother Brain kills the Baby Metroid by slapping it. Samus didn't like that and kills her with a Hyper Beam.
** In "Something About Mega Man X," Vile slaps X with his Ride Armor.
** "Something About Yoshi's Story" has the ''entire Yoshi Clan'' slap Baby Bowser after he shatters the Super Happy Tree, reducing him to a puddle.
** "Something About Super Mario All-Stars" has Bowser show up in Peach's room after Mario has already left, but Luigi suddenly warps back in with his TimeMachine to slap him instead.
** In "Something About Smash Bros The Subspace Emissary," in the recreation of the ''Super Mario All-Stars'' segment after Bowser is dunked into the lava, Mario dives in to deliver several of these to him. And later on after Tabuu shoots the Great Fox with his EyeBeam in retaliation to its laser, Peppy gives Fox a DopeSlap.
** In "Something About Kirby 64," Kirbo slaps Ribbon's hand so hard that he launches her into the Sun. In addition, he destroys a green Pix by slapping it during his rampage in the pyramid.
