* ''Literature/LePacteDesMarchombres'' presents an unusual example, as the two main characters make fun of a crook by being Literal Snarkers about their ''own'' threat.
--> '''Crook:''' Piss off!
--> '''Ellana:''' Here's my counter offer. You leave this inn now, without a sound, and promise never to step back in here, and I won't break you into a thousand pieces.
--> '''Jilano:''' ''(from a table afar)'' It's a fool's bargain!
--> '''Ellana:''' ''(pretending to get mad)'' And why's that?
--> '''Jilano:''' Because even if you hit hard, you'll break twelve bones at best. Let's say twenty because it's you. It's a far cry from the thousand pieces you claim.
--> '''Ellana:''' It's an expression. You shouldn't take it literally.
--> '''Jilano:''' Surely, but this good sir could feel cheated.
--> '''Ellana:''' Fine. ''(turns back to the crook)'' Here's my new counter offer. You leave this inn now, without a sound, and promise never to step back in here, and I won't break you into twelve pieces. Maybe twenty because it's me.
** And then she ''actually'' starts [[ExactWords breaking his bones, while counting to twelve]]. She gets to five, then goes back to three because there aren't actually any bones in the nose and ear. The crook, understandably, flees way before she gets to twelve (or twenty because it's her).
