** In "Wet Painters", SpongeBob and Patrick accidentally get permanent paint on Mr. Krab's first dollar, and once he found out, they were worried he was gonna hang their butts over his fire place. But then, Mr. Krabs easily licks the paint of the dollar, as the paint was washable all along. SpongeBob believed he told them this was so they'd be more careful and not get paint on anything, but actually Mr. Krabs just said that to mess with them.

* ''WesternAnimation/TheAmazingWorldOfGumball'', in "The Dream", Gumball has been traumatized of a nightmare he had of Darwin kissing Penny, so Darwin helps him overcome this dream by taking it on themselves.

(In the Watterson children's room, Gumball and Darwin are wearing connected tinfoil hats and capes and holding glasses of milk)
--> '''Gumball''': Uh, is this gonna work?
--> '''Darwin''': Yeah. The tinfoil reflects our brainwaves into each other's heads. So, when we go to sleep, we'll share our dreams! And we can stop me from kissing Penny, and everything will be fine.
--> '''Gumball''': Well, that, that makes irrational sense, but why are we wearing these capes?
--> '''Darwin''': Uh, 'cause they're awesome. Now take my hand and drink your warm milk.

* One ''Literature/ChickenSoupForTheTeenageSoul'' story has a young woman who suffers from such a severe eating disorder that she ends up hospitalized. While her doctors, family members, and others try to get to the bottom of what bigger reason she may have that's causing her illness (depression, peer pressure, etc.), the girl's reason is "I just wanted to be skinny".
