* In an early episode of [[WesternAnimation/TotalDrama Total Drama Island]], [[AlphaBitch Heather]] deliberately tanks her performance in a talent show challenge by foregoing her planned dance act in favor of reading [[{{Goth}} Gwen's]] diary on national television. Not only was this such a pointlessly nasty action that it [[EvenEvilHasStandards even shocked Chris]], but this led to her team losing the challenge, which they would have definitely won if she had put forth an actual performance due to the huge lead in points they had built up after the first two rounds. The only thing that kept Heather from being voted off that night was PlotArmor.

A {{Jerkass}} character is walking down a sidewalk when he sees a group of little kids playing with a ball, or a remote-controlled plane. He goes up to them all casual-like and feigns interest as they rave about their new favorite toy. Next thing you know though, TheBully either borrows the toy or takes it by force and then either breaks it, throws it on top of a roof or into a body of water, takes it for his own... whatever's the cruelest way he can think of to deprive the kids of their fun. After he does this, he walks away laughing at what he's done while the poor little kids cry or shout angrily at him, hopelessly unable to do anything to fix or retrieve their toy.

* In the Grand Magic Games arc of ''Manga/FairyTail'', after Raven Tail member Kurohebi defeats Lamia Scale member Toby in their match, Kurohebi points out that the lost sock that Toby's been looking for has been around Toby's neck the whole time. Toby starts to thank Kurohebi, but Kurohebi rips it to sheds in front of it, proudly declaring that he enjoys destroying things that are precious to people. This happens to be one of the ''least'' cruel things [[TryingToCatchMeFightingDirty Raven]] [[WouldHurtAChild Tail]] does in this arc.

* In the ''[[WesternAnimation/TheRenAndStimpyShow Ren and Stimpy]]'' short "Sven Hoek", Stimpy and Ren's equally [[TheDitz 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]].

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 cheerfully [[FingerWag admonishes them]] with "So, you whizzed on the electric fence, didn't ya?"
