Simpsons Overdosing is bad, but I agree with Gracie, I find it way better/funnier if it's for mundane stuff
I do too, but unfortunately I'm drawing a blank.
Another example I can think of a mundane reason but also not using a pen and not blood from off the top of my head is this from the Yu-Gi-Oh! manga (i'll find a better scan later)

1.1 or 14
I noticed it has a bit of shadowing from being a pic instead, so I did a bit of digging to find a scan.
15.1

15.2 And I couldn't resist, so I added a Splash of Color for the ketchup.

15.2 isn’t what’d come to mind for me first for this trope, but it might work.

The current image on the page is small, and based on this query
the only recorded use was back in 2009-2010, and outside of maybe finding an unlikely upgrade, I want to see if it can be replaced with something else.
1.1 From Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Dual Destinies
1.2 From SPY×FAMILY (this might fall under "red paint argument")
1.3 From SPY×FAMILY (also might fall under "red paint")
1.4 From The Simpsons
If anyone has any better live-action images or examples that don't use blood that would help too, I'm drawing a blank.
