Except in TV land! There, a man might propose marriage to a woman by building giant letters out of burning gelatin. He could dress up like a knight in shining armor. However he does it, [[HilarityEnsues it's going to be funny]] while still being serious (if at all).

* Poor [[Main/NaiveNewcomer Suletta Mercury]] from ''Anime/MobileSuitGundamTheWitchFromMercury'' ended up at the receiving end of two of these:
** [[spoiler:First was after she wins her first duel against Guel; [[Main/{{Ojou}} Miorine]] transfers Guel's Holder status to Suletta... Which apparently makes her Miorine's fiancé, the latter expressly declaring Suletta her "Groom". Cue Suletta freaking out, saying that she's a girl, and Miorine noting that apparently Mercurians are conservative on their views of marriage.

* Hal Jordan and Carol Ferris [[http://community.livejournal.com/dc_nation/126691.html pretty much ''dared'' each other into a marriage proposal]] in ''Roleplay/DCNation''. Considering we're dealing with a Franchise/GreenLantern and a Star Sapphire, the engagement was pretty much a game of chicken with the altar that would either end wonderfully or blow up in everyone's face. Both parties were pretty much daring each other to back out (and the other heroes were placing odds on which one would back down) up until the judge actually inked the certificate.

* In the ''Manga/FullmetalAlchemist'' fanfic ''[[FanFic/ElementalChessTrilogy Flowers of Antimony]],'' one of these takes place at the wedding of the above-mentioned Ed and Winry. The newlyweds hatch a plan to push together the fandom's favorite MaybeEverAfter pairing, [[spoiler:Roy and Riza, by turning Winry's wedding bouquet into a sort of shot put. She aims the weaponized flowers at Roy's head, Riza instinctively pushes him out of the way before she realizes what she's catching, and HilarityEnsues]]. Dialogue later in the story does, at least, indicate that a real proposal was coming soon anyway.

* In one episode of ''Series/{{Castle|2009}}'' Martha expresses her annoyance at these claiming that all a woman really wants is a man down on one knee with tears in his eyes and a ring in his hand. Apparently Castle proposed to one of his ex-wives in a hot air balloon, and it was so cold he could barely get it onto her finger because they were shivering so bad. Perhaps {{Foreshadowing}} the fifth season finale, [[spoiler: where Castle does exactly this for Beckett]].

* A man and his girlfriend were at a baseball game. Right before the seventh-inning stretch, he receives a "congratulations" text message, and then afterward a marriage proposal from him to his girlfriend lit up on the big screen. So what? Lots of people propose on those giant screens. In this case, it was a prank by a "friend" of his, who even sent the text message. The clincher? ''She said yes.'' When the man firmly denied being behind the proposal the girlfriend was understandably rather irate at the stunt. Feeling humiliated, the two began to argue back and forth. The whole thing was caught on camera and ''broadcast live to the whole stadium'' and probably several local TV stations. This was actually part of the (ongoing) prank wars at College Humor.
