7When cool things are combined, the combination is cooler than the sum of its parts. This combination is usually physically impossible or contradictory, like the title of this page. Fortunately, if done right, nobody cares (RuleOfCool!)
8
9This [[AwesomeButImpractical doesn't always work]]. If the cool things somehow cancel each other out, if it's just so overwhelming the WillingSuspensionOfDisbelief snaps like a brittle twig, you may get left with a piece of {{camp}} that is at best funny and at worst disgusting… often falling into the realm of CoolButStupid. Just remember [[WebAnimation/HomestarRunner Strong Bad's]] words of wisdom: "Too much of a good thing is an awesome thing. But too much of an awesome thing [[BuffySpeak is… umm… really, really dumb and bad]]."
10
11Two relatively straightforward forms of this alluded to in the trope's name are BoxingLessonsForSuperman, in which a character with inherent abilities is trained in a cool skillset (a dragon trained in ninjitsu, for instance), and EmpoweredBadassNormal, in which a skilled character is imbued with special abilities (a GadgeteerGenius given an ImaginationBasedSuperpower)

55* [[TheNineties The 90's]] remake [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xDdf9MIIt2c]] of the classic 60's Tootsie Pop commercial [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K2xMGI-QpZw]], which features a CGI kid talking with a giant dragon and a giant terminator-like robot.

60* One of the main characters of the Mongolian series ''Animation/{{Bultsgar}}'' is Yuni, an anthropomorphic unicorn who's also an alien.

63[[folder:Board Games]]
64* Atomic Sock Monkey Press offers a free boardgame, Monkey, Ninja, Pirate, Robot, its not-free expansion ''Monkey, Ninja, Pirate, Robot Deluxe'' (which also includes ''Clowns, Cowboys, Mutants, Punks, and Zombies''), and ''[[TabletopGame/ProseDescriptiveQualities Monkey, Ninja, Pirate, Robot: the Roleplaying Game]]'', which includes Aliens.
65* A popular variation on Rock Paper Scissors is Bear Ninja Cowboy. Another variant, Rock Paper Scissors Lizard Spock, introduces two new hand signs.
66** Only five hand signs? Pfft, try ''[[http://www.umop.com/rps101.htm a hundred and one]]''.
67*** If you care to add more, any odd number up to infinity can be made into an RPS variant.
68* Ladies and gentlemen: ''[[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chess_boxing chess boxing]]''.
69* There's a boardgame called [[http://www.boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/114871/ For The Win]] where each player controls two Monkeys, two Zombies, two Pirates, two Aliens, and two Ninjas. Each piece has a special ability and you win by forming one of each into a group.
70* In the popular board game [[http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/40692/small-world Small World]], player-controlled factions are combinations of unique powers, one 'adjective' special ability and one 'noun' race. Vampire Elves, Were-Orcs, Seafaring Ghouls, Magic Giants, Flying Dwarves...
71* The entire premise of the game TabletopGame/SmashUp is combining cool things: the base game comes with Aliens, Robots, Pirates, Ninjas, Dinosaurs, Fey, Zombies and Wizards, which are then combined into decks such as "Ninja Dinosaurs", "Wizard Pirates" or "Zombie Robots"; expansions add things such as Steampunk and Bear Cavalry (AKA Russians). In development, the game was even called "PNZR" (for "pirate-ninja-zombie-robot").

73
74[[folder:Card Games]]
75* TabletopGame/MagicTheGathering's [[http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=111062 Mistform Ultimus]] is as of the end of 2022, an Advisor, Aetherborn, Alien, Ally, Angel, Antelope, Ape, Archer, Archon, Army, Artificer, Assassin, Assembly-Worker, Astartes, Atog, Aurochs, Avatar, Azra, Badger, Balloon, Barbarian, Bard, Basilisk, Bat, Bear, Beast, Beeble, Beholder, Berserker, Bird, Blinkmoth, Boar, Bringer, Brushwagg, Camarid, Camel, Caribou, Carrier, Cat, Centaur, Cephalid, Child, Chimera, Citizen, Cleric, Clown, Cockatrice, Construct, Coward, Crab, Crocodile, C’tan, Custodes, Cyclops, Dauthi, Demigod, Demon, Deserter, Devil, Dinosaur, Djinn, Dog, Dragon, Drake, Dreadnought, Drone, Druid, Dryad, Dwarf, Efreet, Egg, Elder, Eldrazi, Elemental, Elephant, Elf, Elk, Employee, Eye, Faerie, Ferret, Fish, Flagbearer, Fox, Fractal, Frog, Fungus, Gamer, Gargoyle, Germ, Giant, Gith, Gnoll, Gnome, Goat, Goblin, God, Golem, Gorgon, Graveborn, Gremlin, Griffin, Guest, Hag, Halfling, Hamster, Harpy, Hellion, Hippo, Hippogriff, Homarid, Homunculus, Horror, Horse, Human, Hydra, Hyena, Illusion, Imp, Incarnation, Inkling, Inquisitor, Insect, Jackal, Jellyfish, Juggernaut, Kavu, Kirin, Kithkin, Knight, Kobold, Kor, Kraken, Lamia, Lammasu, Leech, Leviathan, Lhurgoyf, Licid, Lizard, Manticore, Masticore, Mercenary, Merfolk, Metathran, Minion, Minotaur, Mole, Monger, Mongoose, Monk, Monkey, Moonfolk, Mouse, Mutant, Myr, Mystic, Naga, Nautilus, Necron, Nephilim, Nightmare, Nightstalker, Ninja, Noble, Noggle, Nomad, Nymph, Octopus, Ogre, Ooze, Orb, Orc, Orgg, Otter, Ouphe, Ox, Oyster, Pangolin, Peasant, Pegasus, Pentavite, Performer, Pest, Phelddagrif, Phoenix, Phyrexian, Pilot, Pincher, Pirate, Plant, Praetor, Primarch, Prism, Processor, Rabbit, Raccoon, Ranger, Rat, Rebel, Reflection, Rhino, Rigger, Robot, Rogue, Sable, Salamander, Samurai, Sand, Saproling, Satyr, Scarecrow, Scion, Scorpion, Scout, Sculpture, Serf, Serpent, Servo, Shade, Shaman, Shapeshifter, Shark, Sheep, Siren, Skeleton, Slith, Sliver, Slug, Snake, Soldier, Soltari, Spawn, Specter, Spellshaper, Sphinx, Spider, Spike, Spirit, Splinter, Sponge, Squid, Squirrel, Starfish, Surrakar, Survivor, Tentacle, Tetravite, Thalakos, Thopter, Thrull, Tiefling, Treefolk, Trilobite, Triskelavite, Troll, Turtle, Tyranid, Unicorn, Vampire, Vedalken, Viashino, Volver, Wall, Walrus, Warlock, Warrior, Weird, Werewolf, Whale, Wizard, Wolf, Wolverine, Wombat, Worm, Wraith, Wurm, Yeti, Zombie, and Zubera. ''[=*phew*=]'' The list lost many types in the Grand Creature Type update. The ''Unfinity'' set finally gave it the Robot type, making it a Ninja Pirate Zombie Robot. It's also a Mutant Ninja Turtle.
76** See also [[http://www.ugmadness.net/comics/2007-09-17.jpg this comic]] for several other things it is. Unfortunately, with the GCTU, all of these except "Fish Monger" no longer apply.
77** Magic also has the Phyrexians, SuperSoldier zombie cyborgs.
78** The Mistform Ultimus has somewhat lost its unique status with the Lorwyn block and its introduction of the 'Changelings', shapeshifters with an eponymous ability that grants them every creature type at all times. Amusingly enough, there are also some 'tribal' cards with that ability that aren't themselves creatures at all -- [[http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=397897 Wings of Velis Vel]], for example, is an Advisor-Aetherborn-Alien-Ally-...-Wurm-Yeti-Zombie-Zubera ''spell'' that temporarily sets a target creature's power and toughness to fixed values and grants it flying ''and'' all creature types in turn for the duration too.
79** Apart from the special case of changelings, there are many completely intentional interesting combinations of creature types; recent ones include Minotaur Wizard, Human Ooze, Zombie Plant (and a whole lot of other Zombie combinations).
80** The ''Unstable'' joke set introduces the host/augment mechanic as part of the plane's general mad-science theme. Any augment card can be played onto any host card to create a unique half-and-half creature (so you could play [[https://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=439450 Ninja]] onto [[https://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=439541 Labro Bot]] to make a Ninja Bot, but you could also play that Ninja onto [[https://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=439390 Adorable Kitten]] to make a Ninja Kitten, or play [[https://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=439500 Half-Squirrel, Half-]] onto the Labro Bot to make a Half-Squirrel, Half-Bot.
81* Also from Steve Jackson Games, TabletopGame/{{Munchkin}}'s myriad and sundry genre-spanning sets can all be combined, with minimal rule modifications for doing so. Also present in some individual cards, such as "freezing explosive potion" or "flaming poison potion".
82** Recommended combo for a more or less literal NinjaPirateZombieRobot character: Star Munchkin, the new Munchkin Booty, Munchkin Fu, and [[http://www.needcoffee.com/zombie-munchkin-game-rules/ these rules]]. For added hilarity, add any of the other sets. Or all. Example: Ninja Pirate Zombie Munchkin can be created using: Ninja (Munchkin Fu + Munchkin Impossible), Munchkin Booty, and Zombie Munchkin.
83** The Munchkin Blender pack is specifically ''designed'' to spice up set blending, and includes cards that allow a player to have a character with three races et cetera.
84* TabletopGame/NinjaBurger, which combines Ninjas with fast food delivery.
85* Heyo! Guse here! A card in my deck in TabletopGame/SentinelsOfTheMultiverse features me as a ninja pirate zombie robot fanboy... InSpace! I also have a Mr. Chomps plush (which actually exists) and a shirt that reads Play, Power, Draw (the order you follow on turns in the card game. I’m imformative!).
86* The premise of the card game ''TabletopGame/SmashUp'', where each player is required to make a deck by combining two unrelated factions. In the base game, the expected Ninjas, Pirates, Zombies and Robots are joined by Aliens, Dinosaurs, Wizards and "Tricksters" (i.e. TheFairFolk).
87** In development, the game was even called ''PNZR'' (for ''Pirate Ninja Zombie Robot'').
88* Steve Jackson Games came out with the FanService-laden card game ''TabletopGame/SPANCSpacePirateAmazonNinjaCatgirls''.
89** The relevant "Designer's Notes" column in ''Pyramid Magazine'' had a SuspiciouslySpecificDenial concerning the non-existence of an expansion pack called ''BDSM: Barbarian Dogboy Space Marines''...
90* Z-Man Games has a series of B-Movie card games (all of which can be combined into, well . . .) which take every trope you can think of in a genre, and using it. Titles include TabletopGame/GraveRobbersFromOuterSpace, Bell-Bottomed Badasses on the Mean Streets of Funk, Bushwhacking Varmints out of Sergio's Butte, and Kung-Fu Samurai on Giant Robot Island.
91* The cardgame [[http://www.boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/63067/ Zombie Ninja Pirates]], which also includes [[MadScientist Mad Scientists]]. Has a standalone sequel called [[http://www.boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/85389/ Vampire Werewolf Fairies]], which also includes Witches. And they can be combined...
92[[/folder]]
93
94[[folder:Comic Strips]]
95* ''ComicStrip/CalvinAndHobbes''
96** One strip combines a bunch of fighter toys and dinosaur toys in Calvin's imagination to make the new menace of the Mesozoic era: '''[[http://www.slate.com/id/2129373/slideshow/2129415/fs/0//entry/2129405/ "Tyrannosaurs in F-14s!!"]]'''
97--->'''Calvin:''' This is ''so'' cool!\
98'''Hobbes:''' This is ''so'' stupid.
99** Calvin also once demanded that his father read him a bedtime story in which the Three Bears eat the Three Little Pigs, and then team up with the Big Bad Wolf to eat Goldilocks and Little Red Riding Hood. Then, when Dad sarcastically asks what should happen to Hansel and Gretel, Calvin suggests that the witch should eat them--[[AlwaysABiggerFish right before herself getting eaten by the Wolf]].
100** And one of Calvin's most memorable fantasies had an engine on a jumbo jet explode, sending the smoking aircraft nosediving down toward the exact same spot where a derailed train is about to crash. That spot lies over a fault line that is just about to experience a record-breaking tectonic shift--and said fault line is right underneath the house of Farmer Brown... who is trying to light a match right next to a kitchen stove that has sprung a gas leak. As he strikes the match, Farmer Brown happens to glance out the window and manages only an involuntary OhCrap reaction before he is [[ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill violently killed in four ways simultaneously]].
101* In ''ComicStrip/{{Peanuts}}'' Lucy once offered to do the cover art for Snoopy's "ItWasADarkAndStormyNight" novel. Snoopy suggested "How about some pirates and foreign legionnaires fighting some cowboys while some lions and tigers and bears jump over this girl who is tied to a submarine?"
102** When she did so, his reaction was "Needs more tigers".
103[[/folder]]
104
105[[folder:Mythology]]
106* The mythological griffin could be seen as an example of this. Part lion (king of the animals) and part eagle (king of the sky) would make it rather awesome for the medieval noble class.
107* The chimaera. It's a lion. And a goat. ''And'' a dragon. Why? Just 'cause.
108** One could argue that it was thusly named so as to provide the title of an ''Series/{{NCIS}}'' episode, solely for the purpose of the fantastic line, "They did not name it 'The Puppy.'"
109*** … because they named it "the she-goat."
110* Ancient Myth/EgyptianMythology had [[MixAndMatchCritters creatures]] like this. They were made up from the parts of ferocious and dangerous animals to, well, depict them as ferocious and dangerous.
111** Tawaret had a lion's head and limbs, a [[PregnantBadass pregnant]] hippopotamus's body, a crocodile's backside and tail, and sometimes carried a knife. She was a goddess that protected pregnant women and new mothers from any complications.
112** Ammit had a crocodile's head; the mane, front body and legs of a lion; and the hind body and legs of a hippopotamus. She was a demon of the underworld who ate the unpure hearts of deceased ancient Egyptians, thus damning them to [[CessationOfExistence nonexistence]]
113* [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vseslav_of_Polotsk Vseslav of Polotsk]], a Ruthenian/Rus'n prince who attacked Kiev and Novogrod, is in medieval Russian folklore a Werewolf Sorcerer King. Website/{{Cracked}} laments that he [[AvertedTrope never]] [[FurAgainstFang invaded]] [[{{Dracula}} Transylvania]].
114* The [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nue Nue]] of the Japanese mythology has a monkey's head, a tanuki's body, the legs of a tiger, and the tail of a snake (or alternately, a snake as tail). To complicate matters, it is said to have the call of a [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White%27s_Thrush thrush]], which at a certain period of time is also called Nue.
115* Middle and Eastern Europe folklore of the 16th - 17th has an undead creature named "shroud-eater" or "chewing dead", which is a not-so-dead buried corpse who is eating its shroud (or its own flesh) either because it is hungry or because it cannot leave its grave. It is the ancestor of the modern vampire, but shares some similarities with RevenantZombie (they mostly pestered their own family) and a kind of FleshEatingZombie which can also drink blood. Oh, and their shroud-gnawing was though to spread plagues. Zombie-Vampire-Plaguemaster, if you want.
116* Believe it or not, most [[OurAngelsAreDifferent traditional abrahamic angels]]. Cherubim are described as tetramorphic creatures with four heads, one human, another that of a lion, another that of a bull and another that of an eagle with four avian wings, basically what happens when you mix all the "holy beasts" together. In 2 Enoch, there are angels with a lion's body and a crocodile's head that live in the Sun, clearly following the gryphon shtick to showcase the most badass creature around.
117[[/folder]]
118
119[[folder:Podcasts]]
120* Mocked in the ''[[http://housetoastonish.podomatic.com House To Astonish]]'' podcast, in an episode entitled "Zombie Pirate Ninja Monkey Viking Cowboy", in which they complain that this sort of thing often isn't nearly as awesome as it sounds, and diminishing returns are setting in on how awesome it even sounds. What set them off was a comic called ''Werewolves on the Moon Versus Vampires''.
121[[/folder]]
122
123[[folder:Professional Wrestling]]
124* In the '90s, there was a Memphis wrestler who went by the name "[[Wrestling/RandySavage Macho]] [[Wrestling/UltimateWarrior Warrior]]" [[Wrestling/RicFlair Ric]] [[Wrestling/HulkHogan Hogan]].
125* Wrestling/JimmyWangYang, the Korean-American redneck from Georgia. ("There ain't nothin' yeller about me! But there ''is'' something that's red....")
126* Wrestling/JohnCena (a rapper ''and'' a [[MemeticMutation "chain-gang souljah"]]!)
127* Wrestling/JohnBradshawLayfield (redneck brawler turned ''nouveau-riche'' Wall Street {{Jerkass}} turned ringside commentator.)
128* The "[[Wrestling/DwayneJohnson Rock]] 'N' [[Wrestling/MickFoley Sock]] Connection." In one package you had both an awesomely tattooed LargeHam and future movie star with refined brawling skills and charisma to spare and [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking a short dude in a leather mask who had a puppet for a friend and was famous for jumping off things]].
129* Steve Gatorwolf, an 80's wrestler with an Indian gimmick. He had the power of neither an alligator, a wolf, or Chief Jay Strongbow as usually he was pummeled in less than 3 minutes.[[note]]Except in the [[http://www.wrestling-titles.com/us/az/awf/ American Wrestling Federation]] in Arizona, which was [[AuthorAvatar his own promotion]].[[/note]]
130* Wrestling/RobVanDam: IKnowKarate [[JustForFun/XMeetsY meets]] TheStoner [[JustForFun/XMeetsY meets]] {{Jerkass}} [[JustForFun/XMeetsY meets]] SpotMonkey.
131* Wrestling/{{CHIKARA}}'s Wrestling/{{UltraMantis Black}}, an evil supervillain, cult leader, insect, vegan, punk rock enthusiast who really loves Christmas.
132* Wrestling/TheUndertaker, a grave digging zombie, GrimReaper, EvilOverlord, BadassBiker, outlaw.
133* Photogenic Chris Bosh, a pasty, pudgy, racist who thought he was an 80's martial arts movie star, wore lots of fringe, and his big move is punching people in the junk while yelling like Van Dam.
134* Wrestling/{{Glacier}}, the American Ninja Samurai long-lost brother of [[Franchise/MortalKombat Sub-Zero]](who as we know, is ''[[InsistentTerminology not]]'' a Ninja).
135* Wrestling/MsChif, an [[PartsUnknown otherworldly]], [[OurBansheesAreLouder banshee]], {{metal head}}.
136* Wrestling/TheBeautifulPeople, who started as the porn star due Wrestling/{{Velvet|Sky}} [[Wrestling/AngelinaLove Love]] Entertainment, who became would be cosmetologists offering makeovers to the other TNA Knockouts, who became an aggressive cosmetology based GirlPosse "[[FactionMotto Cleansing The World, One Ugly Person At Time]]", to a "Sorority" whose hazing rituals included putting new recruit Wrestling/MadisonRayne through what was essentially a call girl service(exchanging favors instead of money), all the while occasionally hinting they were still doing "shoots" in that "other" line of work.
137* After Wrestling/SuYung became one of Sweet Saraya's thralls, Radiant Rain referred to her as a "vampire demon dead zombie thing".
138* Wrestling/LloydCthulowitz, half monster, half Jewish attorney.
139[[/folder]]
140
141[[folder:Theatre]]
142* Creator/WilliamShakespeare's play ''Pericles, Prince of Tyre'' includes pirates, a pimp, ParentalIncest by the bad guys, a sorceror who can bring people BackFromTheDead, and [[IncendiaryExponent spontaneous combustion]].
143[[/folder]]
144
145[[folder:Theme Parks & Rides]]
146* ''Ride/TheHauntedMansion'' in Disneyland has ghosts of a few interesting things, such as the ever-popular PirateGhosts, but what really takes the cake is the ghost of an arsonist werewolf. In a PhantomZonePicture.
147** Also, [[http://wiki.rpg.net/index.php/File:MPost3834-3d54fac2db_o%2Ejpg Cthulhu of the 7th sea / Call of Davy Jones]].
148[[/folder]]
149
150[[folder:Toys]]
151* ''[[Franchise/{{LEGO}} Lego Minifigure Series 14]]'' features a literal [[GhostPirate Zombie Pirate]], one may think of assembling a literal Ninja Pirate Zombie Robot...
152* Also Franchise/{{LEGO}}, ''Toys/{{Bionicle}}'' tends to use this a lot, combining MechanicalLifeforms with FantasyKitchenSink. One of the most memorable recent examples would be the {{Cyborg}} dinosaurs [[EnergyWeapon that shoot laser beams]]- sadly [[ToylessToylineCharacter never released as sets]].
153* Yet another Franchise/{{LEGO}} line, ''WesternAnimation/{{Ninjago}}'', features Zane, a Nindroid (ninja robot) who often travels with the rest of his team by flying pirate ship, and who has previously died and been rebuilt, which does, in some ways, make him a [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin Ninja Pirate Zombie Robot]].
154* Pick a Franchise/SuperSentai / Franchise/PowerRangers robot. Chances are it's got at least two primary themes.
155* Dino-Riders which has semi-mechanical dinosaurs piloted to save the world.
156* ''Toys/{{Xevoz}}'' lent itself to this, as parts from any figures could be combined, also literally, as there were ninja, (skeleton) pirate, zombie (well, Frankenstein's monster), and several robot figures.
157[[/folder]]
158
159[[folder:Web Animation]]
160* [[http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/435590 Anicopters: Armageddon]] not only parodies mass-marketing kids shows via having a squadron of animal heads with elemental powers and helicopter rotors, but the NinjaPirateZombieRobot trope, as the credits display various characters that didn't even appear in the short, such as Captain Deadsaws (zombie pirate with chainsaw hands), Aborted Potato-Hitlers, Cannon Santa, and even Lucifer. The fake soundtrack credits also include a song titled "GIANT POTATO-HITLER VS. 2,000 VELOCIRAPTORS".
161* ''WebAnimation/DSBTInsaniT'': Cell is a [[MegaMicrobes Mega Microbe]] made of water whose brain and entire body is a pink nucleus and whose vacuoles can be fired as projectiles.
162* Angel Dust from ''WesternAnimation/HazbinHotel'' is a Gay DragQueen prostitute gun-running former-gangster spider-demon. As one [=YouTube=] commenter astutely pointed out, [[MultiArmedAndDangerous with that many arms]], your gun mob is just you.
163* ''WebAnimation/HomestarRunner'' dips into this territory now and again
164** In the ''WebAnimation/StrongBadEmail'' "different town", Strong Bad imagines an idealized town where "Bubs would give away flamethrowers that [[AbnormalAmmo shoot chocolate hundred-dollar bills]]"
165--->'''Bubs:''' ''Imitation'' chocolate!
166** In "Weclome Back", Strong Bad claims to have done an email while parachuting with narwhals and celebrities, [[OffscreenMomentOfAwesome but screwed up the recording]].
167** According to "date", Strong Bad keeps Strong Badia secure with a cardboard cut-out of [[http://hrwiki.org/wiki/Bear_Holding_a_Shark a Bear holding a Shark]]
168** A minigame in episode one of ''VideoGame/StrongBadsCoolGameForAttractivePeople'' is aptly named ''Snake Boxer V''. In the episode "Dangeresque 3: The Criminal Projective", the Bear holding a Shark plays the role of "a Western Lowland Grizzlysharkasaurusbot... and it's holding a shark!"
169** In "what i want", Strong Bad's [[YouMeanXmas Decemberween]] wish list includes a catapult that launches balls of cobras and a chainsaw-car.
170** In "buried", Strong Bad worries that a bottle cap is actually the trigger for a booby trap that shoots "poison-tipped witch doctors".
171** Strong Bad's science fair display in "caffeine" features a picture of a Shark-Mobile ("Can it work?").
172** During Strong Bad's "Deleteheads fan fiction" in "fan clubs", Strong Sad is attacked b [[http://www.hrwiki.org/w/images/thumb/7/76/Into_the_Moronosphere.PNG/100px-Into_the_Moronosphere.PNG "an 8-foot sub sandwich constrictor"]] that [[UnsoundEffect engsmsploded]] out of nowhere.
173** In one of the [[HerCodenameWasMarySue Powered by the Cheat]] shorts, The Cheat got his new boots from "a cute girl and an astronaut".
174* [[http://www.albinoblacksheep.com/flash/mockingbird How to Kill a Mockingbird]] is ''made'' of this trope.
175-->''"And then the pirate's like "No way!" and pulls out his musket. Actually it was more like a laser. Well, a laser sword. With guns on it. And it shot other swords."''
176-->''"The ninjas all started flying, and some of them were turning into fireballs, and dinosaurs, and Presidents - wait, not Presidents, I meant volcanoes. The pirates were all flying on their burning sharks, and many of them were shooting angry bears. That were on fire. Cold fire."''
177* Blake Belladonna from ''WebAnimation/{{RWBY}}'' is a {{Ninja}} [[BadassBookworm bookworm]] who's also [[spoiler: a former terrorist]] and [[spoiler:a Cat Girl]].
178* Chris the Ninja Pirate from ''WebAnimation/WeeblAndBob''. He's not ''that'' cool, though, so he may be a parody of this phenomenon.
179** The pirate being the natural enemy of the ninja, it's possible he's just supposed to represent a Thing That Should Not Be.

183* [[http://community.livejournal.com/otw_onlinecon/2188.html?thread=147084#t147084 This]] fake FanFicHeader. Warnings include {{selfcest}}, blasphemy in three different religions, [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking and sex atop a sentient flying manta ray]].
184* [[http://groups.myspace.com/lesbianpirateninjas There is a MySpace Group known simply as The Lesbian Pirate Ninjas.]]
185* [[http://randomactsofshark.blogspot.com/ The Obamadämmerung]] and its prequels. The Man Obama fights the landship pirates of Wichita, the Lightning Zeppelin of the Ronpaul, the Gardener(!) Robots of Detroit led by Lord Nader, and more. Combining politics, epic fantasy, and SteamPunk.
186* Someone on Website/GameFAQs found out that if you sync the ''[[VideoGame/SuperSmashBros Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' Subspace Emissary trailer with the audio of the ''Film/ThreeHundred'' trailer, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Cn3rt0UYPw&feature=channel_page you get something awesome.]] This has spawned [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AhRGweLMCD0 some imitators]] as a result of it's perfection.
187* [[http://suptg.thisisnotatrueending.com/archive/3458846/ This /tg/ thread]]. Thought StupidJetpackHitler was awesome? How about almost every [=WW2=] country getting in on the action?

191* Website/{{Facebook}} has about 10,000 or so cookie-cutter applications that let users become pirates, zombies, vampires...you name it. None of them serve any purpose other than to trick people into giving low-life "developers" access to their private information. Additionally, the site has a "Pirate" option, which translates the interface text into pirate slang (e.g., instead of writing on your friend's wall, you "scrawl on their plank").
192* Around the beginning of 2013, [[http://www.equestriagaming.com/ Equestria Gaming]] changed its banner to feature ninja bat ponies. And no, such had not ever appeared in ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'', which it's a fansite of.
193** Actually, Luna's royal guards do have bat wings. From there, it's not a big jump to 'royal ninja guards'.
194* [[http://spoonyexperiment.com/2007/01/27/samurai-zombie-nation-rant/ Naked Zombie Sean Connery]] [[SugarWiki/RuleOfSeanConnery makes this trope awesome]]!

206** Discussed by WebVideo/TheNostalgiaCritic and WebVideo/TheCinemaSnob while reviewing ''Film/{{Sharknado}}''. They conclude that the way to ''really'' make money is to mix three awesome things instead of two, which leads to brainstorming things like Lightning Ninja Werewolves and Cannibal Nazi Spiders.

209* [[WebVideo/WarningReadersAdvisory Derek the Bard]] is a wizard Green Lantern librarian in touch with his inner eldritch abomination.
210* ''WebVideo/SuperMarioLogan'':
211** Recurring character Craig is a [[BigRedDevil devil who runs Hell]] and [[VampireVords talks like a vampire]].
212** In the episode "Cody's Missing!", Cody becomes "Metal Baby Cat Cody" (which consists of him wearing a cat suit and tin foil pants, and sucking on a pacifier) in response to Creator/{{Nintendo}} [[TakeThat using Metal, Baby, and Cat versions of existing characters as filler for its Mario sports games instead of him]]. He later creates his own game, ''Cody!'', wherein Metal Baby Cat Cody is one of the many playable variations of him.
213* ''[[WebVideo/TheSpoonyExperiment Spoony's]]'' review of ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyXIII'' featured a character called [[http://38.media.tumblr.com/21256f81636c21edce731fc5fdaac064/tumblr_mfz5acyAXk1rph7a2o1_500.png "Stereotypically Drunk Mexican Cyborg Early '90s Otaku Kid"]] (a parody of [[WebVideo/AtopTheFourthWall Linkara's]] "'90s Kid", complete with Mexican band Tropical Forever's take on [[Music/{{Nirvana}} "Smells Like Teen Spirit"]]).
214* ''WebVideo/OutsideXbox'' commemorated the release of ''VideoGame/Persona5'' by having Andy Farrant come up with a Persona for both himself and fellow channeleer Luke Westaway. Andy's was "Count High Noon", a vampire cowboy, since Andy likes both vampires and cowboys. Luke's was "[[TotallyRadical Funky Cat 2 Fresh]]", a cat breakdancer who is "too legit to quit".
215* One of the comments on [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DaK6dD6A7Qo this video]] featuring a chain-mail clad Smooth [=McGroove=] sing the main theme of ''Franchise/TheLegendOfZelda'' acapella describes the man as "Viking Nintendo Jesus".

217* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=90TW-p3rkQk This video]] from ''Website/CollegeHumor''. The survivors of a ZombieApocalypse quickly get sidetracked over the concept of VideoGame/NaziZombies and then debating whether they should [[EnemyMine team up]] with the ''Jewish'' Zombies, before giving up after werewolves, vampires, and other permutations get added to the mix.
