* Wiki/TVTropes:

** By extension, ''The Marshall Mathers LP 2'' is also this, being largely about Eminem and Shady and (by WordOfGod) not even being a sequel to ''The Marshall Mathers LP'' but a 'revisitation'.

* Playing off the [[TheNewRockAndRoll moral panic]] about Music/{{Eminem}}'s lyrics and the fact that critics took his Slim Shady VillainProtagonist character literally, his album named ''Music/TheMarshallMathersLP'' is almost entirely dedicated to Slim Shady. The handful of appearances of Marshall Mathers on the record all fictionalise him as an abusive psycho and/or idiot in line with the Slim Shady character, even as (on "Stan") he clearly ''thinks'' that he's a responsible adult, despite having indirectly caused the death of a young man and pregnant woman. ''Is'' Marshall Mathers the real Slim Shady? ...Well, he doesn't seem to be [[WaxingLyrical standing up]], so it's ''probably'' sarcasm. Probably.

It has only a handful of appearances from the Marshall Mathers character on the record, all of which fictionalise him as an abusive psycho and/or idiot in line with the Slim Shady character, even as (on "Stan") he pretends that he's mature, responsible and grounded in reality.

* The episode of ''LightNovel/ReZero'' titled "Self-Proclaimed Knight Subaru Natsuki", in which Subaru [[spoiler: makes a fool of himself and Emilia by proclaiming himself to be her knight, insulting all the other knights when Julius mocks him for his behavior and inexperience, and being escorted out by Emilia herself]]. The episode ends with the aforementioned title card.

* There's been speculation that Creator/WilliamShakespeare wrote ''Theatre/AsYouLikeIt'' as a PanderingToTheBase exercise to his audience, so the title basically means "well, here's one of those comedies that you people eat up--me, I'm really not that crazy about it."

* In-universe example from ''WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons'', parodying the use of this trope in independent cinema, comes when Marge attends the Sundance Film Festival. She walks into films called ''Regularsville'' and ''Candyland'', expecting feel-good entertainment, and is horrified to find out they are about transgenders and drug addicts, respectively. She deducts that ''every'' movie in the festival is like that, and walks into ''Chernobyl Graveyard'' expecting to love it. She doesn't.

* ''WesternAnimation/RegularShow'' is actually a WidgetSeries. The tagline is ''literally'' "It's anything but".

* "With God On Our Side" by Music/BobDylan, from ''Music/TheTimesTheyAreAChangin''.

* "Jesus Saves" by Music/{{Slayer}}.

* ''Series/TheGoodPlace'' is about people that have died and gone to Heaven, except that they're there by accident and their character flaws are screwing the place up and turning "the Good Place" not-so-good. And then the first season finale reveals that [[spoiler:[[ThisIsntHeaven they were never in a Good Place, to begin with]]]].
* ''Series/{{Utopia|2014}}'' is about the Nation Building Authority, a government agency charged with infrastructure projects intended to create a better Australia. Needless to say, the results are nowhere near a utopia.
* ''Series/Glee'' is a real TearJerker.
