History NoodleIncident / WebAnimation

** ”Oops” also has two:
*** The beginning of the episode sees Blitzo crossing paths with Fizzarolli in the Greed Ring [[ContrivedCoincidence when Blitzo is thrown out of building that Fizz just so happened to pass by.]][[note]][[ExaggeratedTrope To make this coincidence even]] ''[[ExaggeratedTrope more]]'' [[ExaggeratedTrope contrived]], it’s revealed that the building just so happens to be opposite of [[TheDon Crimson’s]] office, who’s just tasked [[{{Cowboy}} Striker]] with proving himself useful to him [[VillainTeamUp before he hires him…]] Which he does by immediately kidnapping Fizzarolli and Blitzo when he leaves since they’re literally across the street from him.[[/note]] What Blitzo was doing in Greed in the first place isn’t elaborated upon.
*** Fizzarolli is revealed to be [[LethalChef such a terrible cook]] that he’s banned from ever entering his and Asmodeus’s kitchen again after an incident that involved milk somehow.

** In the E-mail "bottom 10", Strong Bad recalls "there was this one time I had to hug a tree". In the ensuing flashback, Strong Bad actively wonders why Homestar has him hugging the tree and why he ''continues'' to hug it. This wondering doesn't make him stop, however.

* ''Machinima/RedVsBlue'':

* A few of these have happened in ''WebAnimation/DeathBattle'' and its spin-off ''Death Race'', courtesy of [[TheAlcoholic Boomstick]], to sum up a few he has implied that he did a DealWithTheDevil a few times, although what the deal was was never stated, he's wanted in all 50 states for murderous actions with vehicles and people, drank things much worse than ''a bunch of glowsticks'' without revealing what they were, somehow owns 3% of the world's whiskey supply[[note]] Which one fan calculated to be around 9,500,000 cases of whiskey[[/note]], and drank a bunch of speed force sodas[[note]] cans of soda laced with cosmic kinetic energy by Wiz[[/note]] which the end result caused Boomstick to be legally classified as a natural disaster and the government to have Wiz legally responsible for all of Boomstick's future actions.

** The first episode ends with this conversation following [[SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome Max and his friends' attempt to drive a bus]]:

** Another float has an enormous pile of sweatshirts on it with Homestar Runner in the middle. He asks for help since he somehow woke up stuck in them and he's supposed to be looking after Bubs' consession stand. [[DumbMuscle Strong Mad's]] "float" happens to be him carrying said consession stand.

** In season 3, it's mentioned that there are 49 Freelancers, one named after each state. A moment of silence is then held for "poor Florida" before the conversation continues. Again, this is actually explained in the Season 10 finale: [[spoiler:Agent Florida (better known as Captain Butch Flowers, the deceased former leader of Blue Team) was a Freelancer sent to Blood Gulch to watch over and guard the Alpha. To disguise this, Project Freelancer ''blew up the actual state of Florida''.]]

** In Season Ten, during a freelancer assault involving jetpacks, Washington is constantly warned that he doesn't want to "end up like Georgia". Despite his requests, nobody clarifies what happened.

* In ''WebAnimation/IfTheEmperorHadATextToSpeechDevice'', there are many references characters make which look like this unless one [[AllThereInTheManual browses Lexicanum or other wikia]]. A straighter examples are Kitten having gone through a... phase (it involved lack of armor and promethium pools) and him having bad memories about the Tau (''I'd much rather not talk about it''). There's also the reason Black Templars are fleet-based: They know from personal experience they just cannot [[UnstoppableRage crusade]] with a planet.
-->'''High Marshal Helbrecht:''' Believe me, WE HAVE TRIED THIS!
* In ''WebAnimation/BowsersKingdom'' episode 8, Bowser Jr. showed up on a airship, Hal asked where Bowser's 7 other children went. Jeff responds that they are not allowed to talk about it. Cue CutawayGag where the Koopa Kids are maimed in various ways.

* In the ''WebAnimation/DSBTInsaniT'' episode 'The Party', Portica mentions to Koden how she would lend him money and he would never pay her back, then Alex mentions how he would order pizza and, despite the fact that Koden never chipped in, would share with him.
* The ''WebVideo/UltraFastPony'' episode "Copywrong" opens with Rarity explaining why she needs Fluttershy to model for her. The audience only gets to hear the very beginning and very end of the story, but it's apparently a very convoluted story involving a handicap access ramp, an off-color nectarine, and a wager about the color of the sky.
* Parodied very heavily in Egoraptor's WebAnimation/GirlchanInParadise.
-->'''Yusuke:''' Do you remember the playground we went to as a kid?
-->'''Kenstar:''' AAAAAAAAH, so ''that'' was the...
-->'''Yusuke:''' Yes, now you understand! [[DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment And now we must fight, right now!]]
* ''WebAnimation/{{Ducktalez}}''
** We never do find out how Webby died... except that it somehow involved Dewey and Louie using the FusionDance.
-->'''Dewey:''' What happened to Webby was an accident!
** During "The Nephew Trilogy", Scrooge and Vegeta show up every now and then, mostly as a FunnyBackgroundEvent or TheStinger. This all gets resolved in episode 7.
* ''WebAnimation/{{RWBY}}'':
** The story of how Professor Port captured a Beowolf in his youth is glossed over by the episode to reflect the fact the kids [[TheBore aren't paying attention]]. The one bit that is focused on is that his grandfather, despite smelling of cabbages, was a wise man. While his grandfather was referenced because his wise advice was relevant to the tale even though the kids don't listen to it, the story behind the unfortunate smell isn't even hinted at.
** Something big apparently happened the first time Yang got a haircut... something related to her Semblance. It's implied that fire was involved.
* ''WebAnimation/{{Dreamscape}}'': Death-T, some kind of sadistic tournament that Keela and Dylan went through. Although Dylan says he will tell his tale of it another day. He also had fought demonic ''shoes'' at one point.
** In episode 7, Keedran casually reveals that she and Drake fought, but Drake says that is a tale for another time.

** In the first episode of season two, we meet Dragonface, who is a big fan of X-Ray and Vav... and who has a restraining order put on him by the two after he did ''something'' to creep them out.
* ''WebAnimation/TheMostPopularGirlsInSchool'': In Episode 50, [[AmazinglyEmbarrassingParents Veronica]] mentions that her daughter Brittnay [[EmbarrassingDampSheets was still wetting the bed at the age of three]], and she promptly gets cut off by a blushing Brittnay.
* ''WebAnimation/ObjectTerror'' gives us one in "Kiloto the Minoto." In that episode, Computer tells the contestants that he used to work at a chemistry lab, but he got fired after he drank an unfinished potion. It's unknown what exactly the potion was or what it did that made him lose his job.
* In ''WebAnimation/TheTrashPack'' webisode "Snot My Problem", Trash-A-Pillar calls out for Blow Fly to check out Scummy Screen, but apparently this just brings back bad memories for Blow Fly:
-->'''Trash-A-Pillar:''' ''(Offscreen.)'' Blow Fly! Hey, come see!
-->'''Blow Fly:''' Listen, if you’re [[ManInABikini wearing a bikini again]], ''(shifts eyes)'' I don’t wanna see it. ''(Shudders.)''
* In ''WebAnimation/ThrillingIntent'', Gregor apparently once fought a tornado. Why, and whether or not he won, is never made clear.
* ''WebVideo/FriendshipIsWitchcraft'' takes place 10 years after a war, the events of which caused Rarity and Applejack's animosity.
-->'''Rarity:''' I'm sure that's what you said when you were driving that tank into ''a schoolhouse''!
* ''WebAnimation/SaladFingers'':
** "Shore Leave":How "Kenneth" died or if Salad had something to do with it.
** "Cupboard": How Roger (the radio) got broken.
** "Present": Going by the bits of a scene that Salad reenacts (which ends with the puppet getting eaten), there was ''something'' that happened with Jeremy and an unnamed daughter and, whatever it was, things didn't end well on the Jeremy's end.
* WebAnimation/SquimpusMcGrimpus is a Youtube channel dedicated to Fnaf found-footage content. According to Springbonnie in "Nonexistent Video", he once got stuck in a washing machine, and Fredbear had to cut a hole in it to get him out.
* ''WebAnimation/CampCamp'':
** The first episode ends with this conversation following [[SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome Max and his friends' attempt to drive a bus]]:
--->'''Sal:''' I'm getting real tired of having to come up here, David.\\
'''David:''' ''(solemnly)'' I know, Sal.
** How exactly the Quartermaster lost his hand. Apparently it had something to do with 'the Jews' (or at the very least he blames them for it), but we don't hear anything else.
** A year prior to the events of "Journey to Spooky Island", ''something'' happened to a kid named Chuckie. David says that he survived whatever it was that happened. Physically, anyway.
** Just before "Cookin' Cookies" ends, Max, Neil and Nikki [[OutOfFocus make their first appearance all episode]] by way of landing in a biplane with Neil dressed like Doctor Livingstone, Nikki piloting the plane and Max in a samurai helmet and sword, angrily telling Nikki he said to pull ''up''.
* WebVideo/{{Vinesauce}}'s ''WebAnimation/TheBlueShellIncident'' has Mario regaling Luigi with a story that ends with a Warp Pipe being in Bowser's butt all along.
* During an episode of ''WebAnimation/RWBYChibi'', Ruby and Yang get in trouble and Ozpin calls Taiyang and Qrow to speak with them about it. Taiyang is furious at the girls, though Ozpin assures him ''the fire is under control and the cats are expected to regrow most of their fur''.
** Somehow, Qrow managed to date someone worse than Cinder. This has lead to some fans speculating he went out with ''[[HumanoidAbomination Salem]]''.
* ''WebAnimation/LlamasWithHats'' absolutely '''''thrives''''' off this trope. Every episode starts with Carl having done something absolutely insane and callous off-screen, and denying having done such a thing when somebody, mostly Paul calls him out on it, or by the time of the revival series, having to acclimate to the damage he's caused in order to complete his "work".
* A few of these have happened in ''WebAnimation/DeathBattle'' and it's spin-off ''Death Race'', courtesy of [[TheAlcoholic Boomstick]], to sum up a few he has implied that he did a DealWithTheDevil a few times, although what the deal was was never stated, he's wanted in all 50 states for murderous actions with vehicles and people, drank things much worse than ''a bunch of glowsticks'' without revealing what they were, somehow owns 3% of the world's whiskey supply[[note]] Which one fan calculated to be around 9,500,000 cases of whiskey[[/note]], and drank a bunch of speed force sodas[[note]] cans of soda laced with cosmic kinetic energy by Wiz[[/note]] which the end result caused Boomstick to be legally classified as a natural disaster and the government to have Wiz legally responsible for all of Boomstick's future actions.
