* VehicularSabotage: A heroic and seemingly ''accidental'' version is noted in the review of ''Film/NoHoldsBarred'' as Rip tries to escape a goon's limo.
-->''What's hilarious about this scene is how Rip's kicks to the side door appear to effect the limo driver's ability to steer the car. With every massive kick that Rip delivers, the limo swerves all over the street, up on the sidewalk, into garbage cans, other cars and more. The driver can barely control the car due to the FORCE behind each of those big kicks!''

-->But let's think about three important words here. "Fifteen hours ago". That means one of two things. Clark Kent either drank this carton of milk fifteen hours before Dick Grayson was kidnapped by Batman, and thus it is a magical prescient carton of milk, OR it's actually been a long enough ride in the Batmobile for Dick to have been reported missing, for his name to get to the missing persons groups, for them to submit his information to the milk company, for the milk company to print the cartons, distribute the cartons, and then for Clark Kent to go to the grocery store and buy the carton of milk.

* FridgeLogic: Invoked in many reviews, such as wondering why the He-Man Eternia playset has a monorail line to Snake Mountain.
* SitcomArchNemesis: Roger has a one-sided rivalry with the company that makes Goldfish Crackers, viewing them as an antithesis to all things fun.
