* In ''[[DennisTheMenaceUS Dennis the Menace]]'' TheMovie, the fugitive/convict/whatever comes up to a kid and asks "Whatcha eatin', sport?" The kid replies, "Uh Appul (A apple)." Then the convict stabs the apple with his knife and pulls it out of the kid's hand. Then he proceeds to eat a bite in front of the crying child.

-->Bart: Milhouse, this is boring. Make it crash or something.
-->Milhouse: Perfectly level flying is the supreme challenge of the scale model pilot.

This doesn't necessarily have to be exactly like that situation though; this trope applies to all types of jerkassery committed to all kinds of helpless people regarding their items. For example, when the [[BrokenRecord Jerkass]]'s co-worker just finished his project on a computer or whatever and is about to save it, the [[AllBlue/BrokenRecord Jerkass]] goes out of his way to pull the plug of his co-worker's computer, making the co-worker lose all his hard work.

* In the ''[[TheRenAndStimpyShow Ren and Stimpy]]'' short "Sven Hoek", Stimpy and Ren's equally [[RalphWiggum moronic]] cousin, Sven, are seen playing their favourite board game, [[SchmuckBait Don't Whiz on the Electric Fence]], which indeed has an actual [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin electric fence]]. When Ren comes home from work, he finds they've also, in their idiocy, destroyed his most precious belongings. In the midst of a psychotic rant [[CutHisHeartOutWithASpoon outlining the terrible things he has planned for them]], Ren discovers the board game, and asks tauntingly, "Do you like this game? Do you really, ''really'' like this game?" and proceeds to take a leak on it. The resulting short generates an explosion that literally blows them all straight to Hell, where the Devil admonishes them with "You whizzed on the electric fence, didn't ya?"

* ''AquaTeenHungerForce''. Whenever Meat Wad gets something, anything, Shake destroys it. Eventually, Shake is reduced to burning holes in Meat Wad's carpet, the only thing he has left.

** Another, though this time subverted, example from the show is when Mr. Burns does this simply out of curiosity, and discovers that "[[http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/like_taking_candy_from_a_baby taking candy from a baby]]" is not as easy as he had thought.
