History Main / MyFriendsAndZoidberg

** In "The Deep South", folk singer Donovan talks about how all the quality people (like Creator/JeffFoxworthy and the inventor of Coca-Cola) evacuated the sinking city of UsefulNotes/{{Atlanta}}. As the boat pulls away and in the middle of his narration, Creator/JaneFonda charges through the crowd, shoving people aside and leaps into the boat at the last second, prompting Donovan to add "And Jane Fonda was there too" mid-sentence.

* At the crime scene in the ''Series/{{Castle}}'' episode "Undead Again". perpetually grouchy medical examiner Perlmutter greets the main characters as "our intrepid heroes...and Mr. Castle".

* This is pretty much how Nighthawk is treated in ''I Don't Need Your ComicBook/CivilWar''. Special mention to ComicBook/IronMan, who manages to keep him separate ''even from the other Zoidbergs''.

** In "McKinsey," a McKinsey employee in a parody of a recruiting video walks down a hallway lined with portraits. He says "We're proud to say McKinsey alums include many of the most powerful people on Earth. And also, Pete Buttigieg."

* {{LetsPlay/Technoblade}}: "[[WebVideo/SMPEarth Earth SMP]] is a livestreamed survival multiplayer server, with all your favorite content creators. And also [=TommyInnit=]."

* ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/11577632/1/Harry-Potter-and-the-Circle-of-Light Harry Potter and the Circle of Light]]'':
-->'''Sirius:''' Ladies, gentlemen, students and the Weasley twins... it is time we headed for the train.

* In a ''Franchise/JusticeLeagueOfAmerica'' comic, Ultraman (an evil alternate version of Superman) addresses Batman this way. It's really more of his way of un-subtly insulting Owlman (his universe's version of Batman) as having little purpose in the Crime Syndicate. Ultraman and Owlman tend to make remarks like this all the time.

** [[http://comicsalliance.com/jla-justice-luchadores/ An issue]] of Great Comics That Never Happened features the Franchise/{{Justice|LeagueOfAmerica}} [[MaskedLuchador Luchas]] of America: "[[Franchise/{{Superman}} Ultimo Hijo De Krypton]]! [[Franchise/{{Batman}} Oscuro Caballero]]! [[ComicBook/MartianManhunter Señor Marciano]]! [[Franchise/TheFlash El Rápido, Jr.]]! [[Franchise/WonderWoman La Fuerte Feminino]]! [[Franchise/GreenLantern Espacio Policia III]]! And of course, ComicBook/{{Aquaman}}!"
** In the same vein, a review on that site about the [[ComicBook/New52 post-Flashpoint]] ''Franchise/{{Justice League|OfAmerica}}'' series mentioned that it had "some of the greatest characters in the history of comic books and ComicBook/{{Aquaman}}."

* ''[[WebVideo/{{Rerez}} Just Bad Games]]'' gives a brutal one to ''Franchise/{{Aquaman}}'', though since he's taking shots at ''VideoGame/AquamanBattleForAtlantis'' along with ''VideoGame/BatmanDarkTomorrow'' and ''VideoGame/SupermanTheManOfSteel'' it's admittedly pretty low-hanging fruit:

** When the group [[SuperheroEpisode gets superpowers]], Sheen decides to name their group the [[ComicBook/FantasticFour Fantastic]] [[Franchise/JusticeLeagueOfAmerica League of Justice-Bringing]] [[ComicBook/TheAvengers Avenging Men]]. Libby objects, prompting Sheen to append, "And two girls!" Thereafter, whenever Sheen mentions the teams, it's the Fantastic League of Justice-Bringing Avenging Men and Two Girls. (Everyone else calls them the N Men.)

* ''WebVideo/{{Solidjj}}'s'' video about the Sinister Six keeps pointing out the Chameleon is a bit of an odd one out in the group, mostly obviously in Spider-Man's reaction "It's all of my greatest foes! And the Chameleon!"

* ''Literature/WhateleyUniverse'': "Ladies and gentlemen..." "And Jericho!"

* ''Webcomic/CaseyAndAndy'': for a tabletop roleplaying game, Andy invents the character of Bob, whose one ability is that he can show up any time something is described in narrative. Thus, every time Casey tries to describe something, Andy simply adds, "Bob was there too!"
* A ''Franchise/MortalKombat'' [[http://tabmok99.mortalkombatonline.com/plan.html sprite comic]] uses this:
-->'''Jax:''' ''Alright ladies and gentlemen, and Nightwolf, here's how this plan is gonna work...''

* ''{{Webcomic/Buttersafe}}'' uses this in the saddest punchline ever written in [[http://buttersafe.com/2010/01/28/the-tragic-life-of-annabelle/ The Tragic Life of Annabelle]].
--> '''Man:''' Everyone that ever loved you just died. Your mother will be here to pick you up shortly.

* In ''ComicBook/PS238'', Tyler was worried about a metaprodigy threatening his friends. [[http://ps238.nodwick.com/?p=590 Oh, and Zodon too.]]

* From ''Webcomic/ElGoonishShive'', an example that manages to be as insulting as it is complimentary.
-->'''Sarah:''' ''[on Tedd and Grace's relationship]'' Damnit, why are all my friends attracted to freaks?\\
'''Tedd:''' Hey, are you calling Grace a freak?\\
'''Sarah:''' Nope.
* Kaitlyn from ''Webcomic/{{Precocious}}'' [[http://www.precociouscomic.com/archive/comic/2010/12/19 here.]]
-->'''Kaitlyn:''' I just wanted my best friends (and Roddy) to come over and play our favorite games.
* ''Webcomic/LookingForGroup'': [[http://www.lfgcomic.com/page/439 This]] comic takes this to an extreme.
-->'''Cale:''' Ladies and gentlemen. And gnomes. Bloodrage. Skeletons. Sisters and sons. Imps. And-- What is that?\\
'''Richard:''' A [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Gruffalo gruffalo]].\\
'''Cale:''' A gruffalo? What's a gruffalo?
** There's also [[http://www.lfgcomic.com/page/262 this one]] where Richard sulks about being left out of the happy reunion.
* From ''Webcomic/NotQuiteDailyComic'', a straight example [[http://www.truefork.org/Art/comic/cindex.php?300 in this strip]]: "Dear friends (and Malène)..."
* ''Webcomic/EightBitTheater'': "The Fighting Fighters, Also Bikke." Seen [[http://www.nuklearpower.com/2008/11/06/episode-1056-mix-n-match/ here]]
* ''Webcomic/BrawlInTheFamily'' gives us an example in [[http://brawlinthefamily.keenspot.com/comic/373-dreamlandreturn/ this strip]]:
--> '''Kirby:''' Best of friends on an adventure! Also Meta Knight
* In ''Webcomic/{{Sinfest}}'', [[http://www.sinfest.net/view.php?date=2007-02-18 "Plus these guys."]]
* In ''Webcomic/CommanderKitty'', Fluffy is [[CloudCuckoolander many]] [[InexplicablyAwesome things]]...[[http://www.commanderkitty.com/2012/10/14/the-tao-of-fluffy/ but an intelligent life form is apparently not one of them.]]
-->'''Nin Wah:''' Those drones are programmed to relinquish command in the presence of an intelligent life form.\\
'''CK:''' ...and ''Fluffy,'' it would seem.
* The team of ''Webcomic/ExterminatusNow'' is such a DysfunctionJunction that Rogue manages to apply it to everyone.
-->'''Xerxes:''' Are you going to introduce me to your friends?\\
'''Rogue:''' I would if there were any here.
* In the "Tournament" arc of ''Webcomic/EvilInc'', Grandgamer's Personnel File says that "he is obsessed with games and has mastered every one developed by a group of civilized, sentient beings in the universe. And Activision."
* The profile blurb of ''Webcomic/OnceStung'' describes Queen Bees foes as "a gallery of freakish supervillains (And one guy named Jerry)".
* ''Webcomic/StandStillStaySilent'': At some point, Onni calls the group formed by the main members of the cast "the flock of clowns... and Lalli". Lalli is Onni's younger cousin, whom he pretty much raised.

* ''Website/{{Cracked}}'':
** Observe the ad in the second panel of [[http://www.cracked.com/blog/man-comics-manliest-way-to-take-out-space-aliens/ this]] comic:
--->Hello, Humans! [[CrossesTheLineTwice The Jewish!]]
** [[https://www.cracked.com/article_19047_6-awards-that-would-actually-make-oscars-worth-watching.html This]] article uses this trope to take a stab at ''Film/{{Avatar}}'':
---> Quick! What do [[Franchise/StarWars Yoda]], [[WesternAnimation/BeautyAndTheBeast Belle]], [[Film/TheLordOfTheRings Gollum]], [[Film/{{Avatar}} the Avatar chick]], and the entire cast of ''WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes'' all have in common? Besides their ginormous eyes, obviously? Well, in addition to not being real humans, the voices who provided some of the most memorable characters in cinematic history -- and ''Avatar'' -- are all ineligible to win Academy Awards for their performances because, apparently, voice acting is not "acting."

* ''Literature/TheSalvationWar'': "Okay, ladies, gentlemen, ''Karl.''"
* ''Literature/WhateleyUniverse'': "Ladies and gentlemen..." "And Jericho!"

* In Website/{{Bogleech}}'s recap of ''Franchise/{{Pokemon}}'''s [[VideoGame/PokemonRubyAndSapphire Third Generation]] he lists a group of six Pokémon[[note]]Castform, Chimecho, Luvdisc, Kecleon, Torkoal, and Tropius[[/note]] from that generation that he thinks most deserve an evolved form. His statement on the group consists of this:
-->'''Bogleech:''' Maybe some day, little guys. And Tropius. [[note]](Possibly justified since Tropius can't really be considered little.)[[/note]]
* According to ''Website/TheOnion'', [[https://www.theonion.com/barbara-bush-passes-away-surrounded-by-loved-ones-jeb-1825355144 "Barbara Bush Passes Away Surrounded by Loved Ones, Jeb"]].

* {{LetsPlay/Technoblade}}: "[[WebVideo/SMPEarth Earth SMP]] is a livestreamed survival multiplayer server, with all your favorite content creators. And also [=TommyInnit=]."

* ''WebVideo/ShinyObjectsVideos'': {{Exaggerated|Trope}} in "On the Couch".
-->'''Curly:''' Aah, we're like Literature/TheThreeMusketeers! Plus Nathan. Plus Guido.\\
''[there are only four people there]''

* In [[Creator/{{Tobuscus}} Toby Turner's]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ko_LoEUAvtM&feature=relmfu "Trapped in a pistachios ad!" vid]], the audience is advised to watch a clip of A-list celebrities, and [[Series/JerseyShore Snooki]], eating pistachios.
* [[Creator/TheCynicalBrit TotalBiscuit]] does this to himself in ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xExNW36WpFs WTF is...]]'' ''Videogame/PokerNightAtTheInventory'', describing the players as "Four internet celebrities... and me."
* In [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E94751B3Kg4 this episode]] of ''WebVideo/{{Tabletop}}'', Felicia Day introduces the other players with "I have an amazing set of guests here again, and my brother."
* WebVideo/ProJared uses this trope when discussing ''VideoGame/StarFoxZero'':
-->Do you really have that little clue what to do with the crew of Fox and friends? [{{Beat}}] And Slippy?
* ''WebVideo/SteamTrain'': In the rare episodes with Kevin actually playing with the others, since he's not a regularly appearing Grump, the intro plays normally, and then at the end Kevin's Grump Head lazily floats in to a lazy "Also Kevin." Now that Kevin's gone, the gag has extended to other members of the crew that don't normally appear like Vernon, Jack, Matt and Ryan.
* ''Webvideo/{{Moviebob}}'':
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1K0DNQABAUs Top 10 2D Brawlers]] says that the ''VideoGame/XMen'' arcade game included "everybody's favourite X-Men and also ComicBook/{{Dazzler}} for some reason."
** In [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F9juReoJxI0 Really That Bad: Batman V. Superman]], he describes the crew as containing "Oscar nominees! Oscar ''winners''! Legendary character actors! Excited and talented newcomers! And also Creator/HenryCavill, [[DamnedByFaintPraise who seems nice]] and who I enjoyed in ''Film/{{Immortals}}''."

* ''WebVideo/OutsideXbox'':
** Andy wants to go on record that ''VideoGame/BorderlandsThePreSequel'' gives us a glimpse into the pre-''VideoGame/Borderlands2'' lives of some of our favourite characters, and also [[SidekickCreatureNuisance Claptrap]].
** In [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UFzBSUMHMU4 this video]], Ellen says, "Indeed, ''Franchise/KingdomHearts'' sees you running through lots of wonderful Disney worlds, reliving classic adventures with everyone's favorite Disney heroes. And also, Donald and Goofy are there."

* ''WebVideo/CinemaSins'': In his video on ''Film/SawI'', Jeremy says that Jigsaw would be considered a killer "in every state and every civilized country and probably even Idaho."
* "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wUFwv3r8SkI Every Class Is Different]]" has this to say about the Sniper.
-->Some classes are polite. Some classes are efficient. SNIPER THROWS PISS AT PEOPLE AND LIVES IN A VAN!

* In "Pretty in Pink" by Rachel Maude, Seedy Moon is about to give a speech at his engagement party to "friends, family, and Tila Tequila".

* ''Literature/{{Discworld}}'':
** In ''Literature/{{Snuff}}'', it's mentioned that the Watch "appears to include at least one of every known bipedal sapient species, plus one [[AmbiguouslyHuman Nobby Nobbs]]".
** A subtle one in ''Literature/{{Night Watch|Discworld}}'', since it reverses the usual order: "Good evening, Downey, gentlemen..."
* ''Literature/TheDevilsDictionary'' defines man as an animal that "[infests] the whole habitable Earth and Canada".
* In Creator/DanielPinkwater's ''The Last Guru'', protagonist Harold Blatz at once point mails a certificate to "every man, woman, and child in the civilized world [[TakeThat and Iceland]]."

* Literature/CiaphasCain does this to himself in one story.
--> '''Cain:''' This was a job for Zyvan's tame psykers and no business of honest men. Or me.
* Matt does this over and over in his narration in ''Literature/TheAffix'' whenever his [[ClingyJealousGirl stalker ex-girlfriend]] Liz is with his friends. They don't like her either.

* In ''Literature/{{Psmith}}, Journalist,'' Psmith claims that Mike is a famous cat breeder, whose animals are "celebrated wherever the King's English is spoken, and in Hoxton."
* ''Literature/NowhereStars'': The Messengers, the setting's [[MentorMascot Mentor Mascots]], are described by the author as "A family of six cute little spirits (and Vyuji)". This is in reference to the fact that Vyuji eschews the cutesy, fluffy animal forms her siblings take, and chooses to appear in her true, humanoid form, which is described as having an UncannyValley effect.

%% * Used a couple of times on ''Series/{{MASH}}'', when Charles Winchester enters the Swamp where Hawkeye, BJ, and Radar are talking, and greets them: Name the episodes where he did this:
%%-->'''Charles:''' Gentlemen...and Corporal.
%%** While played for laughs, [[TruthInTelevision this is actually correct protocol]]. Hawkeye and BJ are captains, and the proper term to address a group of male officers is "[[OfficerAndAGentleman gentlemen]];" Radar, as a corporal, is not a part of that group, so it would also be proper and polite to address him separately from Hawkeye and BJ.
%%** Used more often when Charles Winchester would leave any group of people that Hawkeye was in, "Good day, Gentlemen...Pierce" I've watched this entire series through more than a dozen times, and I can't think of even one instance where he did this. In fact, he often addressed BJ and Hawkeye together as "gentlemen." Name one specific time he used this trope before making this example visible again.

* There was an old, Danish children's mini-series named ''Og Valdemar'' ("And Valdemar"). It is about a boy called Valdemar who is the youngest in a huge family and is always forgotten by everybody else who will only think of him at the last moment and then say "oh yes... and Valdemar". This has made him think his actual name is "And Valdemar", cue the series title. All the episodes are about Valdemar, either on purpose or inadvertently, trying to hog the spotlight and sometimes succeeding, but always returning to being the forgotten one at the end of the episode.

* In ''Music/TheBeatles'' fandom and lore, Music/RingoStarr often is treated this way--sometimes seriously, sometimes jokingly, depending on the period. Part of this is Ringo's own doing: unlike Music/JohnLennon and Music/PaulMcCartney, who had, let's say, healthy egos, and Music/GeorgeHarrison, who was TheQuietOne, Ringo loved [[SelfDeprecation Self-Deprecating Humor]]. He liked to joke that he was actually an awful drummer who was riding the others' coattails; his bandmates, on the other hand, have all said his skills are second to none. [[http://imgur.com/oJOX0bQ Well, or something like that]]. Also, Ringo was the last Beatle to get his own Website/TVTropes page. Being a drummer doesn't help, either. [[DumbAndDrummer Drummers, in general, are often the butt of a lot of jokes about musicians.]] For example: "What do you call a guy who hangs out with musicians all day?"
** [=McCartney=] carried this into his post-Beatles career: the liner notes of ''Band on the Run'' state that "Paul would like to thank Linda/And Linda would like to thank Paul/And thanx Denny" (that being Laine, the only non-[=McCartney=] member of Wings on the album).
* The Clancy Brothers and Tommy Makem
* Machine Head had a pretty lulzy one at the Metal Hammer Golden Gods awards where they thanked all the awesome bands on Roadrunner...and {{Music/Nickelback}}.
* On Music/{{Showbread}}'s tour supporting their album ''No Sir, Nihilism Is Not Practical'', they were the headlining band, with two metal bands opening for them. Showbread's frontman, Josh Dies, referred to the tour several times as "the Monsters of Metal Tour...and Showbread".

* The Music/VelvetUnderground managed to pull this off with their first album which featured singer Music/{{Nico}} on some tracks. The album's title: ''Music/TheVelvetUndergroundAndNico''.
* Poor [[Music/ElectricLightOrchestra Jeff Lynne]] often gets this treatment when someone brings up Music/TheTravelingWilburys. Not helped by being the least recognizable as a solo artist when next to the likes of Music/TomPetty, Music/RoyOrbison, Music/GeorgeHarrison and Music/BobDylan.

* Ever since Music/FreddieMercury died, Music/{{Queen}} has gone by "Queen + (insert singer here)". Singers include [[Music/BadCompany Paul Rodgers]], [[Music/{{Fun}} Nate Ruess]] and Music/AdamLambert.
** For other reformations [[TheBandMinusTheFace without the original lead singer]], Music/StoneTemplePilots with Chester Bennington and Music/{{Sublime}} + Rome.

* The Other Two, a synthpop band with Stephen Morris and Gillian Gilbert of Music/NewOrder, got named this way in reference to this trope, as they were "the other two" besides Bernard Sumner and Peter Hook that had their own side projects, Music/{{Electronic}} and Music/{{Revenge|Band}} respectively.
* An album from classical parodist Music/PDQBach styled as a radio broadcast was introduced as "a program of fine music ... and P.D.Q. Bach."

* Music/BeastieBoys, "The New Style":
-->Coolin' on the corner on a hot summer's day,
-->Just me and my posse and MCA
* ''Music/{{Friday}}'': When Rebecca Black says "my friend is by my right," she's sitting between two girls.

[[folder:Puppet Shows]]
* ''Series/{{Dinosaurs}}'':
-->'''Earl:''' Hello family... and Ethyl.
* Fozzie Bear pulls this in ''Series/TheMuppets2015'' after Kermit meddles in his relationship with his ''[[InterspeciesRomance human]]'' [[InterspeciesRomance girlfriend]] Becky after a misunderstanding.
-->'''Fozzie:''' Alright! Let's knock out these regional promos, friends...and Kermit.
[[/folder]]

* The radio adaptation of {{Radio/the Jack Benny|Program}} comedy ''The Horn Blows At Midnight'' has Music/LudwigVanBeethoven in heaven chastising Jack's character Athaniel (an angel) thusly:
-->'''Beethoven:''' We have ten thousand men in this orchestra, Athaniel: nine thousand, nine hundred and ninety-nine musicians, and ''you''.

* ''Radio/BleakExpectations'': In the opening episode of series 5, Lord Clampvulture makes a toast to the finest minds in Europe... and [[BunglingInventor Harry Biscuit]]. Harry, being Harry, thinks he's just getting a name check.

* ''Theatre/AVeryPotterSequel'' has Harry say his farewells before his HeroicSacrifice to all of his friends, but singles out the also present Draco Malfoy and expresses his disgust towards him one last time.
-->'''Harry:''' You guys are all my best friends, and I love you all. [[MoodWhiplash Except you, Draco. I can't fucking stand you]].

* In ''VideoGame/DisneyMagicKingdoms'', during the ''WesternAnimation/TurningRed'' Event, Miriam mentions that in her friends' SelfInsertFic they are "an all-girl pop group-- Well, all-girl plus Tyler. He's our mascot."

* Inverted in the MLP fan video ''WebAnimation/ElementsOfCringe'', when the [[TrueCompanions Elements of Harmony]] are captured, Celestia demands Twilight's release and also, whoever the other ones are.
* This quote by Koden in the ''WebAnimation/DSBTInsaniT'' episode, "The Camping Webisode".
-->'''Koden:''' I am not about to let the ''third'' thing with my friends... and Dave and Lisa... be ruined because of the {{monster|OfTheWeek}}... or douchebag... of the week messed everything up!
* ''WebAnimation/PuffinForest'' mentions a time when a GM brought together his best and brightest players.
-->'''Ben:''' [[SelfDeprecation Also he brought me along, for some reason.]]
* ''WebAnimation/MinilifeTV'': In "[[Recap/MinilifeTVSeason5Episode1 Spirit in the Sky]]":
-->'''Snowball:''' Wait, you have to open up the mall! Our friends are in there!\\
'''Archie:''' *beeps*\\
'''Snowball:''' Right, and a man named Wilkins.
* In the ''WebAnimation/{{HFIL}}'' episode "Sharing Circles of Hell", [[ButtMonkey Guldo]] gives a recap of his death:
-->'''Guildo:''' [Vegeta] cut off my head... in front of my friends!\\
'''Jeice:''' And us! (''Guldo slowly turns his head, eyes wide in shock as his jaw drops... followed by Burter high-fiving him'')
* ''WebAnimation/GridironHeights'': In the episode parodying ''Film/Se7en'', six quarterbacks are put out of commission: Eli Manning, Andrew Luck, Nick Foles, Sam Darnold, Cam Newton, and Ben Roethlisberger, a.k.a. "Big Ben" (a joke on the fact that all of them missed time early in the 2019 NFL season). While confronting the John Doe {{Expy}} character, Taysom Hill states that "we lost good men and Big Ben". [[note]]Roethlisberger was the subject of multiple sexual assault allegations in the late 2000s, which is almost certainly what this comment is hinting at (Roethlisberger's checkered past was subject to multiple indirect references of this type across the series).[[/note]]

* "Avocado can be found in upscale restaurants... and now Subway!"

* In a 2013 TV Land promo for the season premieres of ''Series/HotInCleveland'', ''Series/TheExes'', and ''The Soul Man'', the announcer promotes it as "a night of a thousand stars" before Creator/BettyWhite interrupts and says she only counts 10... and Creator/WayneKnight.

* Riche and Eddie in ''Series/{{Bottom}}'' did this with their Bottom Live 2001: An Arse Oddity tour, during a rather moving funeral scene for Dave the parrot. "Dearly beloved... and Eddie."

* In the 1995 hypothetical one shot ''ComicBook/ThePunisherKillsTheMarvelUniverse'', the title character is sentenced to life in jail "for the murder of several of this nation's greatest heroes--and the ComicBook/XMen ComicBook/{{Cyclops|MarvelComics}} and ComicBook/{{Jubilee|MarvelComics}}".
* ''ComicBook/ArchieComics'':
** In one story, Jughead is chosen to be a contestant in a game show, ''Dull or Not Dull'' (parody of ''Series/DealOrNoDeal''). Cue this dialogue:
--->'''Jughead:''' I need my friends for support. [[BeatPanel (pause)]] Oh, and you can come, too, [[AlphaBitch Veronica]].
** Another example, when Archie's superhero persona Captain Pureheart meets [[HatePlague Dr. Detest]]:
--->'''Pureheart:''' He's contaminating all my good friends! Also Reggie!
** A visual variant is with ever-suffering Principal Weatherbee and his file cabinets: students' files are all neatly arranged and alphabetized, but there's an entire cabinet dedicated to Archie alone.

* ''ComicBook/PS238'':
-->'''Tyler:''' He says if he sees me at school again, he'll splat my friends. Oh, and Zodon, too.

* ''ComicBook/UncannyXMen'' 537:
-->'''ComicBook/{{Wolverine}}:''' The stink of what you've been doing is all over you. You're torturing my friends. Summers, too.

* In ''Fanfic/HalfLifeFullLifeConsequences'', Gordon Freeman, [[spoiler:in his dying breaths]], tells John Freeman to "Save humens [-[sic]-] and [[FullNameBasis Henry Freeman]]".
* In a variation where the format works as a compliment, one {{Music/Gorillaz}} fanfic featured Murdoc calling the other band members "you retards--and [[TokenGirl Noodle]]". Possibly attempting to save his own skin, given Noodle's TykeBomb status.
* From ''Series/{{Merlin|2008}}'' fanfic ''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6458088/1/How_to_Pick_Up_Guys_At_bars How to Pick Up Guys At Bars]]'': "It took Arthur a little over an hour to decide what to wear.

* In ''[[Fanfic/MaisRamblings Mai's Ramblings]],'' [[FirstPersonSmartass Mai]] frequently comments that "everyone and [[GenkiGirl Ty Lee]] knows..."

* In ''Fanfic/NarutoTheSecretSongsOfTheNinja'' when Naruto has his first meeting with Jiraiya:
-->This was the great Toad Sage who had [[spoiler:saved Konoha’s survivors from total annihilation]]? The disciple of the Third Hokage who was almost a legend? A writer of dirty books for dirty men (and Kakashi-sensei)?
* A RunningGag in ''Fanfic/MonsterInTheTwilight'' and its sequel with the CMC. Adult characters repeatedly refer to them as "The girls. And Featherweight," with Featherweight usually interjecting "Hey!" at the appropriate point.

-->'''Harry:''' Ladies and gentlemen... and Danny, welcome to the Ministry of Magic!
* In ''[[Fanfic/BecauseIKnewYou Multiverse of Madness: Clea Cut]]'', the Vision of Earth-717 seems to be the ‘Zoidberg’ to the other Avengers of his world, as he’s basically been reduced to a drone compared to his original self, lacking any real emotion after the Mind Stone was taken from him and apparently staying at the tower rather than acting in the field. 717-Strange explicitly describes Vision as “a retiree [they] let hang around out of pity” and Vision acknowledges that’s an accurate assessment.
* ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/11577632/1/Harry-Potter-and-the-Circle-of-Light Harry Potter and the Circle of Light]]'':

-->'''Sirius:''' We have some of the smartest witches and wizards in the country here, and Severus, so surely we can do something?
* ''Fanfic/TheSmurfsThatCanonForgot'': During their first holiday spent without the missing smurfs, the villagers share poetry and stories about their absent friends. It's only as the night is winding down that one of them abruptly remembers Brainy.

* ''Fanfic/TheRWBYLoops'' has a running gag where someone says "Ladies, gentlemen", and proceeds to name every looper present who is too uncouth or dishonorable to be considered a lady or a gentlemen.

* From ''WesternAnimation/InvaderZimEnterTheFlorpus'', as [[VillainProtagonist Zim]] watches his army of robot minions getting destroyed.
-->'''Zim:''' Spenser! Devon! Maria! ''LAWRENCE! [[BigNo NOOOO!]]'' [[MinionWithAnFInEvil GIR]], avenge your robot brothers, [[TheSmurfettePrinciple and Maria]]!
* ''WesternAnimation/DorbeesMakingDecisions'': In [[https://youtu.be/Ofd1yvaw3Ms this song]] about Mr. Poe, there are random moments where they will say, “and Yogul.”

* ''Film/TheFirstWivesClub'': "Gentlemen? And Daddy."
* In ''Film/{{Spaceballs}}'', Lord Helmet introduces the plastic surgeon as being the best of his profession "in the entire universe, and Beverly Hills."
* ''Film/ClerksII'': "Ladies and gentlemen! ...And you, [[ButtMonkey Elias]]!"
* In ''Film/ANightAtTheOpera'', Driftwood begins his speech with: "Ladies! Gentlemen! ...I suppose that covers most of you."

* The French movie ''Les Garçons et Guillaume, à table!'' has one right in the title ("Boys! William! Dinner's ready!"). The main character (Guillaume) spent most of his childhood acting like a girl, due to his mother acting as the title implies.
* ''Film/TheFaultInOurStars'': Mr. Lancaster's airport sign reads MY BEAUTIFUL FAMILY (AND GUS).
* In ''Film/HomeAlone1'', Kevin goes to a Santa impersonator and asks for his family to be returned to him. "And if he has time, my [[JerkAss Uncle Frank]]."

* ''Film/BonCopBadCop'': "Girls... and Matthieu." The ballet instructor hasn't had any male students in a very long time. He is apologetic, though.

In either version, ''Bob'' is already expected to be among the group(s) in question, but is singled out [[TheLastOfTheseIsNotLikeTheOthers as if he's not]], usually at Bob's expense; "Bob" can be anyone, including the ButtMonkey or an {{Acceptable Target|s}}. In extreme cases, the group will be received with cheers, and the name of ''Bob'' will be received by ChirpingCrickets.

* Back when the newspaper ''The Times (of London)'' was considered the best of the best of English journalism, a common joke was to describe the press gallery with the line "three reporters and a gentleman from ''The Times''." This is a rare case of the trope being used as a compliment. (It also may have had an impact on the death of [[UsefulNotes/TheHouseOfWindsor George V]]--since the ''Times'' was a "gentlemanly" publication, its journalists went to bed earlier than those of the other papers, and the desire to have the King's death reported in the next morning's ''Times'' may have influenced the royal doctor's timing of administering the lethal dose of cocaine and morphine[[note]]Yes, George V died on a speedball[[/note]] that eased the King's passing.)

* When Khrushchev came to power in USSR, the opposition in the Central Committee was labeled "the factionary anti-party group which included Molotov, Kaganovich...'' and Shepilov who adjoined them''", mostly to discount at least ''one'' member of the group--eight members of the Communist Party top rung being in an "anti-party group" was considered too much. "Shepilov" immediately became a memetic alias for any extra person joining an established group, and it become a joke that the longest last name in Russia was Andshepilovwhoadjoinedthem. Later, Shepilov even wrote memoirs titled "The Unadjoined".
