* On ''VideoGame/CutTheRope'', you can use whoopee cushions to move the candy.

* ''VideoGame/{{Terraria}}'' has Whoopie Cushions as a rare accessory drop from giant worm enemies. By itself it just adds a fart sound effect to a character's jumping, but one can be combined with the Cloud in a Jar accessory to produce a Fart in a Jar, allowing the player to DoubleJump... accompanied by a fart sound. This item can in turn be combined with a Shiny Red Balloon, then with a Lucky Horseshoe, to make the Green Horseshoe Balloon, allowing a character to double-jump, jump higher, and ignore FallingDamage... and make fart sounds when jumping.

Whoopee cushions are items that make a farting sound when someone sits or steps on them. Frequently used by ThePrankster, and may be part of an AprilFoolsDay joke. They are a form of ToiletHumour, so people who use them are usually children or very immature adults. Compare StinkBomb, which recreates the smell of a fart rather than the sound. Sub-trope of GrossoutFakeout.

* In ''Literature/{{Discworld}}'' novels, the Boffo Joke and Novelty Shop is described as the favoured establishment of people who think a whoopee cushion is the last word in comedy, "which in many respects it is".

* The whoopie cushion apparently [[http://www.cracked.com/article_20102_5-dirty-jokes-in-modern-movies-that-are-older-than-film_p2.html dates back to the Roman Empire]].
