Most of the examples are zero-context. And the very fact that this character gets angry really easily goes against the spirit of a Berserk Button.

While the one remaining example appears to be arguing that the book's environmentalist message is overly heavy-handed, it's so poorly written that I have no idea what it's actually saying.

Professor Farnsworth: Something without which no ribbon-cutting ceremony could proceed: the ceremonial oversized scissors.
Leela: We'll get them there as quickly as we can.
Professor Farnsworth: All right, but don't run with them.

Whilst my gross flesh sinks downward, here to die."
Examples:
- There's a meme out of the Death Note fandom from the scene where Light is staggering away after being shot. He falls dramatically toward a wall, flattening himself against it as he struggles to stay upright. The meme: "I fucking LOVE this WALL!"
- Matt slides down against his bullet hole-riddled car after being shot approximately ten-thousand times—though not before taking one last drag from his ever-present cigarette.
- Rin Tohsaka does this in Fate Stay Night after failing to prevent Kotomine from taking Ilya away from Shirou's house. She gets better, though, because she is just that awesome.
- Happens in Psyren to Shao when he fought Junas. He got better.
- Misato's death in End of Evangelion.
- Tsume does this against a rock in Wolfs Rain. It's particularly shocking since the audience aren't aware until then just how badly he was hurt.
- The original Zest in Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha Strikers, after being killed by Cinque.
- In Baccano, this is how one of the conductors on the train falls after being shot in the head.
- How Rocinante falls against a treasure chest in One Piece after being shot to death by his brother Doflamingo. It's not his final position though. Being a pirate, Doflamingo opts to take the chest, and he leaves Rocinante's body lying in the snow.
- In V For Vendetta, after V is shot at the end, he staggers and leans against a wall, leaving a V-shaped smear of blood. He still manages to walk a fair distance afterward, though.

Examples:
- Cowboy Bebop's 14th episode, entitled "Bohemian Rhapsody", contains a chess game between an old senile chess master and Cloudcuckoolander Ed. The game is played over the internet and lasts for days until the chess master wins, and subsequently dies. Overlaps with Smart People Play Chess, as this old senile chess master planned, decades in advance, for several spaceship warp gates to explode out of revenge for the company he worked for at the time that supervised the project.
- Mao in Code Geass is crazy enough that he rigs a bomb to detonate and kill Nunally if he wins, in order to force Lelouch to play him. Subverted (or perhaps reinforced) in that he doesn't actually know how to play chess except by reading Lelouch's mind.
- Ami in Sailor Moon plays an opponent, Berthier, who is such a lunatic that she freezes different parts of Ami's body as Ami loses her pieces. Granted, Berthier was going through a Despair Event Horizon, thinking she was worthless and preparing to die. She eventually Heel Face Turns and loses the 'crazy' part.
- The manga and Crystal has a chess match between the same opponents, but Berthier is more crazy and less sympathetic: she tries to exploit Ami's fear to distract her into losing the match and used dowsing to decide her next moves. When the dowsing crystal stops reacting, she realizes Ami will checkmate her, and proceeds to directly attack her, which led to her own death and Ami's capture by the Black Moon Clan.
- Durarara's Izaya doesn't just play chess. He plays chess-reversi-cards-alcohol-matches. And he is definitely crazy.
- Pandora Hearts has Vincent, though his crazy and chess-playing don't overlap.
- The Joker is a brilliant chess player able to consistently beat Ras Al Ghul, Batman's oldest (as in, the most long-lived in-universe) and most strategically sound foe, at chess.
- Judge Dredd: Judge Death, who thinks life itself is a crime punishable by death, has been a master at chess since his teens. He doesn't really get around to it anymore after becoming a zombie, though.
- In one Fox Trot strip, Jason and Marcus combine chess with Dungeons And Dragons. ("As if regular chess isn't nerdy enough," sighs Paige.)
- In X 2 X Men United, Magneto and Professor X play chess at the end.
- Brainwashed, based on the novel The Royal Game.
- Green Lantern 2011 — Hector Hammond, soon to be infused with yellow fear energy, is first seen playing chess against a computer.
- The main character in Knight Moves, a chess grandmaster, spends a lot of time as a patient in asylums.
- Two Thousand One A Space Odyssey: A Genius Bonus for chess enthusiasts is found in the game that HAL 9000 and Poole play; although HAL predicts mate, there's actually a way for Poole to avoid it. A subtle hint at HAL's error-prone nature...
- In Sherlock Holmes A Game Of Shadows, an epic chess match between Holmes and the main antagonist serves as both the climax and a representation for the entire movie's events. It should also be mentioned that both of them were not using a chess board and playing throughout portions of the match.
- Pawn Sacrifice is a biopic about Bobby Fischer (cf. Real Life below), focusing on the World Chess Championship 1972
and Fischer growing more and more insane.
- Searching For Bobby Fischer: There are some creepy weirdos at the chess club that Josh goes to. Part of the goal of the Waitzkin family is to make sure Josh doesn't turn out like them.
- Through The Looking Glass, the sequel to Alices Adventures In Wonderland, features a chess-crazed Looking-Glass World. Wonderland, of course, is populated mostly by those who are as mad as hatters.
- Famously, in Vladimir Nabokov's The Defense, the chess grandmaster is so tormented that his whole life disintegrates. Even when he resolves to abandon chess for the sake of his sanity, he finds that he can't. The protagonist, Luzhin, is based on the real chess player (and nut) Curt von Bardeleben.
- Los Voraces 2019 is about a $20,000,000 tournament in the future. A good chunk of the players are... a bit odd. And then there's the serial killer.

| Western Dragons | Eastern Dragons |
| Are scaly and reptilian (outwardly, anyway), and usually serpentine. | Are Mix And Match Critters, though the exact components vary (generally, they can best be described as "lion-snakes"). They sometimes evolve out of Seahorses or Legendary Carp. |
| Generally depicted with pointed and unbranched horns, or otherwise entirely hornless. Frills and fins are also common in modern depictions. | Generally possess short, deer-like antlers. |
| Normally associated with fire, which they often breathe as an attack. In Greco-Roman and Germanic myths, they're more likely to be heavily associated with water instead, and to live in lakes, swamps or wells. | Normally associated with water (and the sky, which was considered an ocean in classical Chinese thought), and are often considered bringers of rain. Furthermore, the Azure Dragon and the Yellow Dragon are associated with Wood and Earth, respectively. In some works, some Chinese dragons are capable of breathing fire. In some legends, they are capable of this after being punished. |

- Mention an invention that was named in this way, but get some detail wrong (for instance, by suggesting that John Montagu, Earl of Sandwich, is famous for inventing the montagu).
- Mention an invention that wasn't named this way, but claim that it was (for instance, by claiming that shaving cream was invented by Albert Shavingcream).
- Reveal that something seemingly named using a description or a fictional analogue of real life was actually named after a person, in an inversion of the above (for instance, the ski mask was the invention of the burglar Daisy Ski, and skiing isn't present in this setting).
Examples:
- There's an Alas Smith And Jones sketch about László Bíró, the inventor of the ballpoint pen. This is true. The Namesake Gag comes in when he's worried that someone might steal his idea, and is assured there's no-one in the house except the servants: Bic the butler, Parker the chauffeur, Pentel the maid...
- All Aussie Adventures has the Mitchell Track, which Russell Coight tells us is named for the explorer who first opened up the area, Mitchell Track (as opposed to Major Thomas Mitchell

- Blackadder

Blackadder: Yes, a few rounds of geralds. - Blackadder Back and Forth:
Blackadder: May I present to you, the greatest breakthrough in travel since Sir Rodney Tricycle thought to himself, "I'm bored of walking. I think I'll invent something with three wheels and a bell, and name it after myself"...
- "Ink and Incapability":
- In Peanuts, Sally has to write a report about Columbus Day...
