FanFic [[ThisIsYourPremiseOnDrugs on crack]]. The easiest type of fanfic to write, and one of the hardest to write ''well''.

* A recipe: Take one lovable goofball [[WesternAnimation/EdEddNEddy named Ed]], add a tentacle-bearded pirate [[Film/PiratesOfTheCaribbean named Davy Jones]], stir in a well known fast food restaurant, and presto! You get ''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/7603560/1/Ed_And_Davy_Jones_Work_At_McDonelds Ed and Davy Jones Work At McDonalds]]''.

** What happens when you combine ''Literature/HarryPotter'', ''BloodyBloodyAndrewJackson'', a HistoricalDomainCharacter count up the wazoo, spontaneous musical numbers, [[MisterSeahorse mpreg]], gore, and political incorrectness that CrossesTheLineTwice (but usually more than twice) in every chapter? ''FanFic/NymphadoraTonksGoesToHell'' is what you get. And it is CrazyAwesome.

** ''Harry Potrovski'' is a fanfic that makes Hogwarts a communist hellhole and Harry and his friends cannon fodder for a fictional third world war.

* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3_B_ul7egUg The Wizard of Oz 3: Dorothy Goes To Hell]], an animated FanSequel to ''Film/TheWizardOf Oz'' and''Film/ReturnToOz'' made by Creator/JamesRolfe, in which Dorothy, accompanied by a talking feces-encrusted pickle, travels to Oz on a [[Franchise/StarWars sandcrawler]] to take the Red Brick Road to {{Hell}} and stop {{Satan}} and his brother Lucifer before they can blow up the world with an evil cyborg version of {{Jesus}}. Yes, really.

* ''Fanfic/TheSonOfTheEmperor'' is not only a ''MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'' Equestria-on-earth story... it's also a biopic of the childhood life of Napoleon II. Written by a guy simply known as ''Tropers/NoMoreSanity''. You heard right.

* Well, at least ''VisualNovel/AceAttorney'' can't be in any stranger crossovers than that ''Franchise/ProfessorLayton'' one-'''''[[color:red:Objection!]]''''' The '''Great''' and '''Powerful''' [[WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic Trixie]] begs to differ!

Unfortunately, hilarity would ensue in the worst ways possible..." as a plot crossover with ''Literature/SnowWhite'', elements of ''Franchise/{{Pokemon}}'' and ''Franchise/YuGiOh'', [[FelonyMisdemeanor and no]] [[CanYouHearMeNow cellphone reception]].

Even more than the rest of the realm of FanFic, Crack Fic is proof of SturgeonsLaw. Much of what is actually ''labeled'' as Crack Fic is pure nonsense, streams of out-of-character absurdity stereotypically written by young teen girls who were "soooooo high on sugar/caffeine/cold medicine/red cordial/crack that I had this great idea lol" and don't understand that "randomness" and the in-jokes they share with their friends do not actual humor make.

The rare and shining ''well-written'' Crack Fic, however, interweaves an outlandish premise with solid characterization, internally consistent logic, and a clear understanding of the rules and feel of the source material (as every writing teacher in history has said, you have to know the rules before you can break them). It's a difficult tightrope to walk, and it's easy to fall off one side or the other into "not quite enough to make the premise work" or "so crazy that it no longer makes any sense." This difficulty frequently drives both authors (who balk at the work involved) and readers (who are often skeptical that the author has really pulled the premise off) away from the genre, but Crack Fic fans agree that the discovery or creation of a successful story is well worth the search.

* There is a crossover between ''DragonballZ'' and ''Literature/TheDiaryOfAYoungGirl''. Anne lives, falls in love with Goku, and Hitler turns Super Saiyan shortly before Goku vaporizes him. One gets the feeling that this was inspired by an [[ThisIsYourPremiseOnDrugs O.D. on a combination of Psychadelics, Ritalin]], and bad ingenuity. The fic in question can be found [[http://smallcave.net/goferchan/afgoku01.html here]]. It is possible that its genesis lay not in drugs but in a misguided middle schooler coming home from school after learning about the holocaust, thinking, "Man, Hitler sucks! Goku should kick his ass!" And then he set his eyes on the computer, and one of the great legends of fanfiction was born. The fic is read by WebVideo/BennettTheSage here: [[http://thatguywiththeglasses.com/videolinks/bt/the-sage/fanfic-theatre/5040-masterpiece-fanfic-theatre-episode-2]]. And believe it or not, this kind of already happened in canon. It's called the 12th movie, ''Dragon Ball Z: Fusion Reborn''. No, seriously. Hitler got revived in the 12th movie, and [[spoiler: Goten and Trunks]] kicked his ass in Saiyajin form. It's only in the uncut DVD release. All TV Syndications edit out all scenes with Hitler.

[[caption-width-right:250:[-{{Hitler}} continued laughing, then finally said '[[Manga/DragonBall Goku]]! [[Film/StreetFighter You came here expecting to find a madman]], but instead, [[AGodAmI you found a GOD!]]' Hitler had become a Super Saiyan.-] ]]
