{{Got Me Doing It}} refers to effects on other characters in the work in question. Some readers/viewers may find certain speech mannerisms infectious enough to pop up in their {{Real Life}} mouths; this effect is much more {{Ear Worm}} country. Of course, if your latest bout of Stephen King reading has resulted in you saying ''thankee-sai'' to the teller at the bank or the checkout girl, please consider what the Universe may be trying to tell you.

* Some protagonists of ''{{Homestuck}}'' began catching each other's speech patterns after prolonged chatting with each other - for example, John is fond of repeating letters eight times (just like Vriska does), while Jade is beginning to swear like a sailor after several conversations with [[HairTriggerTemper Karkat]] - which may be symbolic of a deeper relationship between them.

* Happens frequently in ''TheNavyLark'' with Captain Ignatius Aloysius Atchinson whose chronic hayfever meant he was unable to speak a work without sheezing, if he appeared then soon the entire cast would be at it. Several of the other character traits would prove contagious over the course of the series whenever it was [[RuleOfFunny funny to do so]].

* In the ''QuantumLeap'' episode "Play It Again, Seymour", Sam leaps into a private detective in the 1950s and is caught up in a FilmNoir-style narrative with a pulp-novel-reading kid who uses all kinds of ridiculous hardboiled slang. About halfway through, Sam catches himself using the same kind of slang in his narration. ([[FridgeLogic His past-tense narration]]...)

* Done to a quasi-supernatural extent in an old issue of ''[[ArchieComics Jughead]]'' comics. Just for the heck of it, Jughead would respond to everything the people around him say in rhymes. It would immediately catch on, and before the end of the school-day everybody in Riverdale High cannot help but respond to each other in rhymes, eventually driving them crazy. This will only stop if Jughead gets hit on the head.
