* In the second case of the first ''PhoenixWrightAceAttorney'' game, the primary (or rather the only) evidence incriminating suspect Maya Fey in her sister's murder is a receipt with her name written in blood. Phoenix Wright asks Detective Gumshoe whether murder victims often identify their killer this way, and Gumshoe asserts that it happens all the time in detective novels. The detective's certainty wavers a little when Wright points out that this isn't a detective novel.

* An ad campaign from a few years ago: "What do you think this is? GM Goodwrench Service Plus?"

* In Gotham City [[BadCopIncompetentCop the police are corrupt]], [[GangBangers the streets are ruled by thugs with guns]] and the government is ineffective. ''ComicBook/GothamCentral'' was a series set amongst the people who actually ''live'' in Gotham, instead of the superheroes who just fight crime there, and they full-well realize that their city [[WretchedHive is a hole]]. And not a particularly tolerant one, at that.

* In ''Film/TheSongOfBernadette intellectuals, skeptics and atheists who hang out together at the local café get word of Bernadette's visions. They dismiss it all as superstitious nonsense by a bunch of ignorant, backward peasants, and the café owner says "To think that such a thing could happen in the middle of the nineteenth century!"

* Quoth [[DresdenFiles Harry Dresden]] when pursuing "Grey Cloak" using Little Chicago: "You might have gotten away with this in other cities, asshole, but Chicago is ''my'' city."

* In ''{{Holes}}'', Mr. Sir often reminds the "campers" that they are not, in fact, at Girl Scout camp. There is a sweet bit of irony when, after the novel ends and the villainous Warden is forced to sell the property, it is turned into a Girl Scout camp.

* ''TheLeagueOfGentlemen'': "This is a local shop for local people. There's nothing for you here!"

* ''SeriouslyWeird'' does this, Hugo wanted ice-cream and was in Heaven at the time.

* Writer Creator/ChuckPalahniuk of ''Literature/FightClub'' fame has a short story called ''Guts'' from the book ''Literature/{{Haunted 2005}}''. The story is infamous for being a real life BrownNote, and according to Wikipedia has [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haunted_%28Palahniuk_novel%29#.22Guts.22 caused more than 60 people to faint while hearing readings of it]]. At one reading in NewYorkCity, Palanhiuk finished and noted with surprise that no one had fainted. Someone in the front row responded by snorting and saying "[[BigApplesauce This is]] [[BrooklynRage New]] [[SeenItAll York]]."
