Sprinkle Baking Soda All Over Your Bed and You Will Feel the Difference!
Why you should Sprinkle Baking Soda on your bed? How to clean mattresses after a while? They are probably the most difficult thing when it comes to clean. They are huge, very heavy, and of course surrounded by furniture that we simply don't want to move. But they are very important part of our lives because a third of the day we lye on those lovable mattresses. Because of this, they need maintaining and cleaning. But the question is: How to do that?
Simply Sprinkle Baking Soda . . .
Many people, especially during the summer, sweat while they sleep. It is totally natural, but over time it can leave the mattress a little unpleasant smelly. After a period of time, it "collects" dust and dust mites. In 10 % of the population, dust mites can actually cause asthma and allergic reactions. 4 out of 5 homes have detectable amounts of dust mite allergens in at least one bed.
Don't worry! There is very simple solution for this problem as well.
All we need is:
- Sprinkle little baking soda,
- essential oil ( choose whatever you prefer; lavender for example is great choice)
- a clean vacuum.
How to clean it?
You only have to sprinkle little baking soda and you will remove vomit, urine, other fluids, hair or dead skin cells as well. Watch the following short video that will show you in details how to make your mattress perfectly clean and dry. It will be in the state as you have bought it from a store right now!
This simple trick will provide you healthy rest, cozy atmosphere and sweet dreams.
It is a lot easier than you might think. It will only take 7 minutes to watch and learn. Do not hesitate to do this cleaning this weekend.
Check out the video now and try to clean your bed!

The energy industry is in a state of intense transformation due to the forces of technology, competition and regulation. As the industry adapts to these changes, company personnel are seeking to maintain their value proposition for their customers in a climate of uncertainty and risk. Regulatory compliance, once a footnote in the company annual report, has now become a major driver of profits and shareholder return.Download an Insight
Today, the Energy and Utilities industry is exposed to challenges and risks that were unknown only a few years ago. The complexity of operations is compounded several times over by the increasing number of stringent reliability standards enforced by the North American Electric Reliability Council (NERC), market and tariff provisions from the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC), and further compliance requirements from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) and other regulatory bodies. Many companies have cross-border requirements that complicate compliance even more.
Meanwhile, the adoption of Smart Grid technology continues, bringing with it increased exposure to cyber thefts and attacks. Identifying compliance challenges early, and understanding the specific risks associated with them can help organizations prioritize their compliance assessments and monitoring tasks, save huge losses in the form of penalties and settlements, and maintain their hard-earned reputation and trust.
Every year, a record number of audits and enforcement orders are issued from various federal and state agencies that oversee the energy industry. Companies that get fined for non-compliance face stiffer penalties because of the lack of an implemented and effective compliance program. Gone are the days when companies could assert that they either didn't understand regulations or weren't sure how to comply. There is enough information, expertise and tools available for organizations to effectively implement a comprehensive and proactive compliance program.
This paper covers the crucial points for developing a comprehensive approach to compliance risk management as a foundation for developing effective compliance programs. The steps described below are sequential guidelines that many knowledgeable and capable energy companies have developed in partnership with their extended stakeholders: customers, regulators, competitors and consultants.
The Risk Assessment Matrix (RAM) for Efficiently Managing Compliance Programs
The NERC example: In September 2011, NERC filed its new Compliance Enforcement Initiative comprising three tracks:
- Dismissal
- Find, fix, track and report
- Notice of penalty
The dismissal and notice of penalty tracks remain the same; however, the find, fix, track and report section is a new addition which identifies possible violations that are of lesser risk to the grid, and allows registered entities to mitigate them without enforcing penalties.
The new initiative is a paradigm shift in how issues are processed. It reflects a risk-informed approach that recognizes that all possible violations are not equal and should not be treated in the same manner. Instead, it suggests that resources should be spent only on those violations that seriously threaten the bulk power system.
Energy and Utility organizations should adopt a similar approach, focusing on critical risk areas, and accordingly prioritizing their response and recovery efforts. The identification and management of these specific risk areas can be effectively conducted using a Risk Assessment Matrix (RAM) model.
The RAM is fast becoming an essential part of compliance programs for Energy and Utility organizations across the world, especially since regulatory authorities such as FERC and NERC are evaluating how companies use the RAM in their compliance program to detect violations.
Not only does the RAM help design an effective compliance program, it also reduces the likelihood of violations. In essence, it enables a detailed and efficient risk assessment through which organizations can identify their most important processes and functions along with the threats most likely to impact them. Accordingly, resources can be prioritized and deployed to mitigate those risks, and ensure compliance.
Implementing RAM - Six Steps to Achieving Risk-based Compliance
The six-step RAM process covers the entire risk assessment process in a closed-loop system. Executed properly, it ensures that organizations are completely aware of and prepared for the entire range of potential risks.
The six steps are summarized as follows:
Step One - Identify Applicable Rules, Regulations and Statutes
Energy and Utility organizations - especially those with complex organizational structures spread across multiple countries - are required to comply with an intricate web of numerous regulations at various levels.
In our market research, we observed that most companies are aware of about 70% of their obligations. However, the Compliance departments are usually aware of only about 35% of the applicable rules. The rest are hidden--sometimes deeply - within various business or functional silos across the enterprise. Therefore, identifying and recording the applicable regulations in a systematic manner is a starting point for risk assessment. To effectively maintain sustainable compliance, organizations need to maintain and continually update a complete inventory of rules, regulations, guidelines, directives, and details.
Step Two - Identify Business Functions and Processes
Business functions and processes that fall under the purview of "compliance" extend across different departments: Communications, Operations, Legal, Service, Finance, Human Resources, Training, Marketing, Facility Management and Information Technology. Virtually every corporate function has some role to play in maintaining compliance. The best way to identify these roles is to do an inventory of who is doing what with respect to compliance. Determine the functions and processes relevant to each applicable rule, regulation and statute, looking within the organization as well as other stakeholders in the business process.
Step Three - Determine the Compliance-Criticality of Functions and Processes
It is crucial to map those business processes that are most critical to the ongoing compliance of the organization. This phase is based on questions such as: How important is this business function to the company's state of compliance with the identified rules and regulations? How would a loss or disruption in that business function/process affect the bottom line?
Organizations need to identify if a particular business function has very specific compliance responsibilities, or if it contributes to the overall compliance culture of the company. It is also crucial to understand how important the function is to the continuity of the business and compliance. Are there are too many silos involved in the process of complying with certain rules and regulations? Has the continuity of compliance operations been broken?
Step Four - Identify Threats to Ongoing Compliance
Organizations should identify and manage threats that have a likely chance of occurring. For instance, if only one employee is responsible for filing the Quarterly report to FERC, it should be counted as a threat because the employee could suddenly leave the company. Similarly, multiple threats could arise from multiple sources, and converge to form a single large threat. Organizations need to identify similar sets of threats, rank them, and determine their impact and likelihood. They also need to consider the threats that have occurred in the past.
Threats can be identified and classified in groups such as:
- Natural disasters (tornados, floods, earthquakes, tsunamis, heavy snowfall)
- Events caused by humans (workplace violence, criminal activities, kidnapping, terrorist attacks, cyber-attacks, sabotage)
- Facility-related emergencies (hazardous materials, loss of utilities)
- Asset protection incidents (inadequate systems, untrained personnel, unprotected machines)
- Information system difficulties (lack of backup)
- Employee-related problems (lack of training, bad attitude, misconduct/ grievances)
Step Five - Determine Vulnerability
Organizations should determine the threats that are most likely to disrupt each of the critical business functions. They need to ask themselves how likely it is for a threat to occur, and how often the threat will occur.
One of the suggested methods to determine threats is to use a three-step approach which classifies business functions into:
- Highly Vulnerable - most likely to experience the threat
- Vulnerable - may experience the threat
- Not Vulnerable - not likely to experience the threat
Compliance risk can be quantified based on various approaches such as:
- Using simple mathematical models as well as complex algorithms to calculate the probability of non-compliance events occurring.
- Determining the number of risk source points. For instance, if 3 people are responsible for completing and submitting FERC Form 1, then the number of risk source points is 3.
- Measuring controls and accountabilities, and assigning a relative value to them such as highly effective, effective and not effective.
- Measuring the potential severity of non-compliance (fines and penalties). Organizations don't have to focus all their actions and attention on those areas for which non-compliance doesn't pose a significant risk.
Step Six - Plan Resources to Address Threats and Vulnerabilities
It is imperative that plans and capabilities to handle threats are current and adequate. To plug in the gaps or overcome inadequacies, companies need to concentrate on solution areas such as appropriate tools, planning, organization, facilities, operational processes and training. Companies also need to determine whether the programs and solutions can be managed by the available company personnel and extended stakeholders, or a combination of the two. Tabletop, functional and full-scale exercises must be conducted at regular intervals to assess the efficiency of plans and resources.
One of the most common claims asserted by companies that have been cited for a substandard compliance program is a lack of resources to ensure that requirements are being addressed within the organization. Agencies have little to no tolerance for these claims in the current regulatory climate.
Teaming Up with Other Internal Functions - RAM Integration
The Reliability Compliance team should collaborate with other teams to gain the information and experience required for risk assessments. Internally, the best possible teams to work with are those that manage:
- SOX Compliance processes
- Financial risk assessments (multiple types)
- Audits (regular and ad hoc)
- Information Technology Vulnerability Assessments
Avoiding RAM Duplication: While developing the RAM, the Compliance team should identify existing frameworks where risks and controls have already been processed. For example, in many HR functions, Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) are already part of the compensation incentive program. Similarly, many Risk Management and Audit departments have identified Key Risk Indicators (KRIs) as part of their normal process of evaluating risks to the company.
Communication is critical. People with compliance responsibilities need to be kept informed about new regulations, guidelines, interpretations and expectations. In addition, the organization should define roles and responsibilities, and make people responsible for reducing the number of risk assessments.
How Technology Can Enable a Risk-based Approach to Compliance
To ensure sustainable compliance, organizations must build a proactive and risk-based compliance approach that not only addresses today's requirements, but also future requirements. While IT solutions and systems alone can't drive risk and compliance programs, the right solutions and technologies can provide measureable value by improving the efficiency and effectiveness of the people and processes that businesses rely on for success.
There are various approaches and solutions available in the market for enabling a risk-based approach to compliance. These solutions:
- Enable policies, frameworks and multiple compliance requirements to be managed on a single platform so that organizations need not have to deploy separate systems or point solutions for each regulation.
- Support risk assessment and computations based on configurable methodologies and algorithms, providing a clear view into the organization's regulatory compliance risk profile, and enabling auditors to develop audit strategies for optimal risk/reward out¬comes.
- Use a flexible framework for configuring multiple methodologies and approaches, and help maintain a many-to-many relationship between various objects, including policies and procedures, regulations, standards and requirements, risks, controls and issues.
- Provide centralized risk libraries where risks and their corresponding controls can be maintained by compliance area/program, standard and requirements.
- Provide capabilities for risk identification and assessment along with risk heat maps and detailed reporting tools.
Compliance assessments and audits require a number of tasks such as assessments and surveys, polling, documentation and issue management. Without an integrated and automated task management system, companies cannot effectively manage and schedule these tasks, optimize resource requirements, or establish standardized escalation mechanisms.
A compliance management solution should automatically streamline and automate the tracking of action items - ranging from documenting information about new compliance requirements and issues, to assigning ownership and responsibility for the issues, to providing automatic alerts for task implementation, to resolving issues that arise. Ideally it should help users implement specific follow-up activities to track, escalate and confirm task completion.
The solution should also enable organizations to structure a logical internal control framework, beginning with regulations and standards, and extending down to the associated sub-standards, requirements, controls and control tests. This organized framework helps streamline compliance activities, make quick associations between controls and regulations, and simplify the tracking of control-based activities across the enterprise. Risk control assessments and testing should be facilitated using predefined criteria and checklists.
The solution should also help users prepare self-certifications (including NERC RSAW) to evaluate, tabulate, review and report evidence of compliance with NERC regulations. In short, the solution should enable organizations to set up controls for every compliance risk requirement, and assess these controls periodically to ensure they are working. This promotes a proactive outlook in the organization where all risks are covered with efficiently working controls.
The energy industry is in a state of intense transformation due to the forces of technology, competition and regulation. As the industry adapts to these changes, company personnel are seeking to maintain their value proposition for their customers in a climate of uncertainty and risk. Regulatory compliance, once a footnote in the company annual report, has now become a major driver of profits and shareholder return.
The best run companies have compliance programs that recognize the full set of risks, enable compliance, and then substantiate the results. Risk assessment is a starting point for building a compliance program. In fact, a structural risk assessment is necessary for a company to build a truly effective compliance program.
Regulators now know that many companies "get it" and that they have moved compliance from the basement to the boardroom. That recognition by regulators only serves to spotlight those that still lag behind the best practices of regulatory compliance.
With such a wide availability of tools, knowledge and experience, energy companies can understand and manage risks better than ever before.

Almen A-4
Experimental barrel engines for aircraft use were built and tested by Mr J.O. Almen of Seattle in the early 1920s, and by the mid-1920s the water-cooled Almen A-4 (18 cylinders, two groups of nine each horizontally opposed) had passed its United States Air Corps acceptance tests. It however never entered production, reportedly due to limited funds and the Air Corps' growing emphasis on air-cooled radial engines. The A-4 had much smaller frontal area than water-cooled engines of comparable power output, and thereby offered better streamlining possibilities. It was rated at 425 horsepower (317 kW), and weighed only 749 pounds (340 kg), thus giving a power/weight ratio of better than 1:2, a considerable design achievement at the time.

Antwort auf "How do I take apart the Galaxy Note?"There is also a narrated video for beginners here.
Antwort auf "What Part Do I Change Once The iPhone 4s Gets Wet?"The most common problem on the iphone 4S which has been exposed to water is battery failure. With the 3GS it is usually the LCD. Remember that the rice trick is only a temporary solution since moisture can still be trapped inside of the main board shielding. Read more about what to do with a wet cell phone here. As a previous poster said, turning the phone on is a bad idea as it causes electricity to flow through components that are still wet. This can easily short something out and cause more damage. Once you replace the battery pay attention to whether the phone gets hot while charging. This is a good sign that you will have problems in the future.
Antwort auf "ipad 2 disabled connect to itunes"Have you tried bypassing the "ipad is disabled" screen? There is an easy way to do it with the first ipad and I have heard that it now works with the ipad 2 by selecting ipad from the drop down menu in Gecko. The instructions can be found here.
Antwort auf "Water damage : no Sim password asked anymore"So you had a PUK code on your SIM? If that's the case try a different SIM and see if you can call out. Does your phone show signal strength? No service? Searching? More information would be helpful. Recover your iPhone pass code

As they begin their 15th year of service, the Maui County Electronics Recycling Program (Ecycling) has announced new hours which will come into effect on Saturday, Aug. 2. Currently, Ecycling is open every Tuesday and Saturday from 9am-1pm. Starting on Aug. 2, Ecycling will be open every Tuesday from 2pm-6pm and every Saturday from 8am-1pm.
Electronics cannot go into our landfill, so it's crucial that any and all unwanted pieces of technology are brought in during business hours, to be recycled properly. For a full list of the types of electronics that Ecycling will and will not accept, visit their website here. All Ecycling services are free to residents and business.
Businesses with more than one pickup truck load of material must stack their recyclables on standard 4×4 pallets and wrap them securely. A fork lift is on-sight to help unload trucks, if necessary.
"We want to thank everyone for using our service and keeping our communities cleaner and safe," said Ecycling Program Administrator Marty McMahon in a June 23 press release. "Electronics are federally designated hazardous waste and they are dangerous, particularly to our soil and groundwater, so please recycle responsibly."
For more information, visit Habitat-maui.org, or call the Ecycle Hotline at 808-280-6460.

To achieve greater scalability and tighter integration with their enterprise data lake and cloud computing initiatives, many Netezza users are exploring various growth options. These options fall into two broad categories:
While switching to an IBM solution may seem to be the easiest option, it can create a proprietary vendor dependency that limits your flexibility to take advantage of the open source enterprise data lake or cloud investments you may be making. The flexibility to take advantage of modern data architecture technologies can deliver significant cost savings and near-infinite scalability. Enterprises can capitalize on this opportunity by offloading Netezza workloads to a Hadoop/Spark or cloud-based modern data architecture.
This webinar shows you how to put automation to work to reduce the cost, time, and risk of a large-scale transformation. Experts from Impetus also demonstrated a way to transform Netezza workloads to big data "automagically," using the industry's first automated workload transformation engine. This will be an interactive discussion followed by Q&A.

This blog was inaugurated on Tuesday March 20, 2012. It serves all of our networked web sites.
Health Advice Therapy is a new web site and service industry, dedicated to providing self help strategies that target the Pain Relief Lifestyle, the Pain Relief Diet, and Optimal Health Secrets. A HEALTHY health care system is our goal. Professional level health advice is now available online. We offer a self-help client-centred focus.
Our home base is located in Burlington, Ontario, Canada where local people can contact us for an in-office visit if they prefer that approach. However, the premise of our internet service is that you need not appear in our office at all. We can provide Health Advice Therapy over the internet no matter where you live.
Our program has been developed over the last several decades using scientific research and professional best opinion. Most all health care is delivered that way today. Our experience covers four decades of helping people manage pain and learn optimal health secrets. We blend experience in manual medicine, nutrition, sports injuries, lasers, and acupuncture to formulate a process that helps people discover where they are at in the optimal health continuum.
The concept of putting numbers down to optimal health took a long time develop and it took a long time to create the program as we have it today. We are proud that our program can provide guidance to people to help them help themselves and stay on the roadway to optimal health secrets. We believe this is the first time anyone has defined optimal health and put numbers to it. Much debate centres around what actually constitutes optimal health. Our approach is to focus on things that most people can willingly improve in their lifestyle, always guided by science and professional best opinion.
This blog is a place where people can listen to what we have to say, they can interact with us, and other people, on their own time line.
We would like to introduce you to Health Advice Therapy. Information about yourself is key to staying healthy. We provide a format for you to organise health behaviour information about yourself in an anonymous fashion. Our niches are natural self help pain relief and optimal health wellness. We teach Optimal Health Secrets that people can use to help themselves relief pain naturally and get on the roadway to optimal health wellness.
There is lots of information in the median now days on health care. We help people sift through that information and build behaviour changes for themselves that lead toward a longer, healthier, happier life. We feature a diet created for natural pain relief called Dr. Ouellette's Pain Relief Diet. We teach people special pain relief exercises and self help tolerance level keys.
To get started we have created the Canadian Holistic Online Consultation at www.TheQ.ca/register. After that contact us for one of our three Health Advice Therapy Workshops. We help people get started along the roadway to optimal health wellness.

After a few feeble attempts at using a belt sander and a hand plane ( as if that was going to work) I decided to build a router sled. I don't have much in the ways of a work surface that can accommodate a piece this size so I fashioned up a few sawhorses, a bed to hold the slab, and then the router sled itself. The whole thing took me an afternoon and is made of MDF.
Because the slab varies in height so much I wanted a easy way to adjust the sled potion without having to move the walls of the bed. So the sled is attached to two guides each with tracks to hold the sled and led it slide up and down. I can go from 2-1/2" clearance to about 7-1/2" (if I ever decide to work with more uneven thick materials), and can accommodate a piece up to 3' wide.
Its a little wobbly, so I can think of a few ways to stabilize, and leveling the whole thing is still a chore, but overall i'm pretty happy with the set up. After going down the whole length I can pretty quickly hand plane off the score marks between passes. (The picture shows progress on the more flat side being worked on, the hard part is yet to come.

It would be unfair of me to restrict mention of the BBC Proms this summer to a mere offhanded gibe, particularly since it's an institution well worth supporting (as one is reminded in Britain whenever one turns on the television during prime time in summer and finds a full-blown orchestra concert rather than old CSI reruns).
But it took an editorial in today's Guardian to draw my attention to one of the more worthy features of the Proms Website (and of its live broadcasts, for households properly equipped): Maestrocam, a commentary feature that elucidates the conducting of selected conductors for selected pieces. So far, Sir Charles Mackerras, Vasily Petrenko, Ilan Volkov and Daniel Barenboim have come in for the close-up treatment, and it makes edifying watching. Next up: David Robertson, on August 28th.
The BBC has already done a commendable job of raising the popular understanding of a conductor's job with its reality-TV series Maestro last summer. I initially dismissed this as yet another example of dumbing down (or tarting up) classical music, but on perusal, and despite a certain amount of requisite schtick, it proved to treat the subject with reasonable seriousness. Its value lay in helping communicate to viewers not only how much work is involved in leading an orchestra, but how a listener might begin to evaluate it.
Edited to add: And thus I learn that videos on the BBC website don't work in the U.S. Sorry about that. It is now obvious to all where I've gone on my book leave.

"Not available in your area" is the message I get when I try to play the videos. (I'm in the USA.) Is the BBC still to be considered as a world-class international broadcaster?

Yes, sadly few of the BBC's internet video services are available outside the UK. Happily, the BBC's wonderful classical music radio service, Radio 3, can be heard in the US over the internet, though at a much lower bitstream rate, and therefore lower, but still decent, sound quality, than is available to UK internet users. The BBC's reasons for the differences include licensing and cost considerations.

You get what you pay for. We don't pay license fees to the BBC, so why should we get access to their programs? It's not like public or commercial radio... or newspapers for that matter. It is more like trying to watch Hulu overseas.
Nevertheless... for a fee, there are work arounds (albeit illegal): http://geeks.pirillo.com/profiles/blogs/insider-secrets-iplayer

Mt. 28:9, 10; Mk. 16:9; Jn. 20:11-17
Suddenly, Jesus appeared and became His own Messenger. He asked Mary why she was weeping and for Whom was she seeking.
Failing to recognize Him and thinking that He was the gardener, she thought that He had taken Jesus' body to another location. She said, "Sir, if You have carried Him away, tell me where You have laid Him, and I will take Him away."
Mary offered to move Jesus' body because she and the other women were on a mission to do what they could for Him and embalming Him was the final thing that they could do.
When Jesus called her name, Mary immediately knew Him. She went to tell the disciples that she had seen the Lord and to relate the things that He had said to her.
After seeing Mary, Jesus met the other women on the road and greeted them. He said, "Do not be afraid. Go and tell My brethren to go to Galilee, and there they will see Me."

A specific form of Berserk Button and/or Minor Injury Overreaction.
A character is about to sit down to their Trademark Favorite Food, when it gets stolen, eaten, made less appetizing, or damaged beyond edibility. No matter how calmly they may ordinarily behave, at this point you can expect them to Gasp!, scream, fly into a rage, start to cry, get excessively violent, some combination of these things, or otherwise Comically Overreact. To them, this particular food is Serious Business.
This is understandable for children, who can treat sweets very importantly, and not much else (see Evil Is Petty for literally taking candy from children). It's also understandable when characters lacking an Improbable Food Budget seeing their hard-bought meal going to waste might be a bit peeved, and also understandable if they are poor and lose the only Poverty Food to fill their stomachs. A Supreme Chef quite naturally wouldn't be pleased with seeing their work destroyed, and any reasonable person could react this way when they're preparing to dine on that chef's Impossibly Delicious Food. And this is completely understandable when enjoying some Comfort Food, or Post-Stress Overeating is involved, since this happening atop other stresses can only end badly. Then there's the whole matter of food offering some sort of tactical advantage. It's when grown adults have a similar reaction to normal food they aren't responsible for that the trope might come into effect.
This can conceivably happen during a Food Fight, Food Slap, Kitchen Chase, Bar Brawl, Diner Brawl, or any time good food is used as Edible Ammunition. Will often be paired with and complement Denied Food as Punishment, Enemy Eats Your Lunch or Filching Food for Fun. It can overlap with Food as Bribe if a character reacts poorly to Their Favorite being indirectly threatened by the ramifications of the plot. This may also result in a Fight for the Last Bite, as nobody wants to be the one to lose their snack.
A Big Eater or anyone Obsessed with Food has a good chance of having this reaction to any of their food being taken away or destroyed. They can still qualify if they flip their lid over a specific food, but the main point is that they become distressed in a proportionately larger way than they would normally.
The eater and complainer aren't necessarily required to be the same person, but the food has to be acknowledged as good-tasting or well-liked by the eater, whether they have Bizarre Taste in Food or enjoy some Foreign Queasine. Situations where a Cordon Bleugh Chef becomes annoyed at a Discreet Dining Disposal happening to something they made distinctly wouldn't count.
This has a tendency to involve confectionery and pastry. Could be seen as an in-universe reaction to They Wasted a Perfectly Good Sandwich. Also see The Alcoholic, for whom wasting is another angry reaction entirely. Compare My Favorite Shirt.
- Nobody better lay a finger on Bart Simpson's Butterfinger, because he's been known to use nasty booby traps to make that point clear in various commercials (for example hooking up an electric buzzer to one which shocks Homer when he tries to steal it).
- There are a few of these made by the Dairy Farmers of Ontario, which have the slogan "If it's made with 100% Canadian milk, it's worth crying over." One example includes a freeze frame of people at a fancy dinner party all crying, including the dog after one of them accidentally spills the fondue pot.
- Another one shows a bus full of campers all eating ice cream. Then the bus hits a pothole, causing all of the ice cream to fly off the camper's cones and onto the ground, making all the campers cry as the bus enters the camp, which is ironically called "Camp Happy."
- In the Adventures of the Little Koala episode "The Mysterious Moa Bird", Laura helps out in the kitchen and actually makes her own eucalyptus cakes. Nobody gets to try any, however; the cakes are destroyed when Roobear crashes his hot air balloon into the house. Laura is very upset over her wrecked cakes.
- At the start of the "Greenback Jane" arc from Black Lagoon, Mr. Elvis fires into the Rip-Off Church against the advice of his friend Lobos who knows Roanapur, which is enough to piss off Eda already, but the reason Revy gets involved, other than general piss-off at being shot at? His bullet went right through her shot of whiskey. It does not end well for Mr. Elvis, Lobos, or their buddies.
- In the Cowboy Bebop episode "Heavy Metal Queen", Spike has a hangover and is making a drink called a Prairie Oyster to remedy it. The last ingredient, a raw egg, is all that's needed. But it's knocked into his lap due to a fight in the bar he was in. Spike stares at it solemnly before deciding to join in on the fight, and utterly curb-stomps those responsible.
- Light Yagami in Death Note is able to manipulate Ryuk into helping with his plans for once by denying him apples, and any time he's had to go without them has been treated the same as some form of withdrawal. This is one of the few times a shinigami has a direct effect on the story.
- In the Devil May Cry anime, Morrison is able to coax Dante into doing a job after he convinces Dante's favorite pizza place to stop delivering to him until he can pay his tab. Dante gets especially frustrated at Patty, not over her re-decoration of his shop, but over her eating his strawberry sundae.
- In Dragon Ball, Goku and Yajirobe get into a fight because Goku had eaten a fish Yajirobe had left over a fire. Well, that's why Yajirobe started the fight. Goku did it because he thought Yajirobe was working with Piccolo, the demon that killed Krillin.
- From Dragon Ball Z:
- All the Buu forms love their sweets, but Super Buu takes this Up to Eleven after he is trapped in the Time Chamber by Piccolo. He asked if he would have sweets and Piccolo smugly tells him no, cue him throwing a tantrum that breaks dimensions.
- It gets one-upped by Beerus in Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Gods, who throws a temper tantrum after he misses out on a chance to eat some pudding. And by temper tantrum, we mean that he would've destroyed the Earth had Goku not stopped him. This, despite the fact that it would've been beyond trivial to make another batch for him if he had just stayed calm and shown a little patience.
- Shizuo Heiwajima's first violent mood swing in Durarara!! came from his brother Kasuka stealing a pudding with his name on it from the fridge when they were kids (which Shizuo broke a bone attempting to toss at him).
- Pictured above: Erza Scarlet in Fairy Tail takes her cake very seriously, and at one point beats on everyone around her after the slice she was eating gets knocked onto the floor, particularly Elfman for accidentally stepping on it only a moment later.
- In Gintama, the introduction of the titular character was displayed like this when his parfait was destroyed due to a fight in the bar he was in. He explains that his doctor told him he was close to gaining diabetes and had to cut back on the sweets. So he limited himself to a parfait a week. As one can imagine, he's not pleased that he wasn't able to finish it.
- In Gundam Build Fighters, Reiji and Aila get into a fight over a meat bun and accidentally throw it into a nearby river in the ensuing struggle. Naturally, they start yelling at each other, marking the official start of their Belligerent Sexual Tension, aptly christened via Memetic Mutation as "The Meatbun Chronicles."
- K-On! has multiple examples, but the most extreme ones come from Episode 14 of the 2nd season, where Yui and Mio get the strawberries stolen off their cake. In Yui's case, she whines for the rest of the episode about how the strawberry represents the cake's crown, or its very heart and soul, while Mio actually starts to cry, as if heartbroken.
- Maho Girls PreCure: Mirai cries when her pancakes get eaten. But when she finds out that Chikurun ate them, she enchants the curtains to trap him.
- Eishun Konoe in Mahou Sensei Negima!, upon the Ala Rubra being attacked by Rakan, makes a point to fight him first... after Rakan's massive, thrown sword destroys the picnic they were having and spills the nabe he made.
"Anyone who wastes my food... I slice."
- Elma went full dragon form in Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid: Elma's OL Diary when a burglar accidentally stepped on a bag of chestnuts she had bought and would have murdered him if Kobayashi hadn't come by with some Taiyaki.
- Naruto is enraged after finding out that an impostor stole his ramen, triggering the Kyuubi's chakra. Then we see one-thousand Kage Bunshin.
- A good way to piss Chouji off is by eating the last potato chip.
- Mio from Nichijou angrily attacks her sister after she replaces the strawberry on her cake with a Shogi piece. This was after she found her sister had also messed with the Mont Blanc she was looking forward to.
- Plenty of these in Ojamajo Doremi are caused when Doremi misses out on eating steak.
- One Piece:
- A major Berserk Button for Sanji. If you waste food in front of him, be prepared to get hurt. Because as a child, he almost starved to death.
- Carrot is so obsessed with the vegetable she is named after, she once savagely attacked Luffy for taking one of hers.
- For a rare non-comedic and enforced example from the Punk Hazard arc, the kidnapped children go on an Unstoppable Rage for more candy as a result of the withdrawal symptoms from the NHC10 drug they were slipped.
- Probably the worst case is Charlotte "Big Mom" Linlin, one of the Four Emperors. She has such a Sweet Tooth that islands under her "protection" must pay her back in tons of candy. If they can't, she'll have that country destroyed. She's been known to go on destructive rampages if a certain sweet she's craving isn't immediately provided. When the Straw Hats destroy the wedding cake for one of her tea parties, she begins killing her chefs when they tell her that they can't bake a new one. Ironically, this trope actually protects her life for a few moments. The only time her Made of Iron body becomes weak is when a photo of her Living Emotional Crutch is damaged, but when the Straw Hats break it, she's so furious over the cake that her mind locks up because she doesn't know what she's more upset about.
- Honey in Ouran High School Host Club spends an episode without cake due to the cavities eating so many has caused him. He ends up taking it out on the club and causing a rare argument with Takashi (they make up in the end). In Renge's words, life for Honey without cake is "a living hell."
- Pikachu in Pokémon spends a whole scene crying over the loss of a ketchup bottle it was licking from.
- Charizard flips out when Team Rocket destroys the table full of food he is eyeing.
- May has made reservations at a restaurant and was ticked when Team Rocket happens to steal all the food, ruining Dawn's, er, perception of her.
- Kyouko from Puella Magi Madoka Magica tends to react very badly to people wasting their food. Much like Sanji, this is soon revealed to be a consequence of a traumatically hungry childhood.
"Don't waste food. I'll kill you."
- The first episode of Slayers NEXT starts off with Lina and Gourry having a massive and lovely-looking lunch... which is quickly cut short by a fight breaking out and a thug crashing into their table. Lina is completely devastated and responds by blasting the thugs outside so she could personally beat them up with her own fists.
- In Sonic X, the teacher absently picks up a burger belonging to a police officer. Said officer pursues him beyond the rest of the episode, threatening to call out the SWAT team.
- A variation in SSSS.GRIDMAN: Akane tries to give Yuta a "special dog"—basically a shrink-wrapped sandwich with a hot dog in it—but a trio of girls accidentally tosses a volleyball into it, partly squishing it. After an extremely long awkward pause, they apologise profusely; Yuta isn't bothered by the smashed sandwich and eats it anyway. Akane, however, uses her Reality Warper powers later that day to rewrite history such that all three girls died years ago.
- In Stepping on Roses, the heroine Sumi is rendered gobsmacked when her husband Sōichirō throws the "peasant" food she cooked away, then leaving his breakfast half eaten. Of course, since Sumi grew up dirt poor with barely enough food for herself, let alone her brothers and sisters, this attitude is completely understandable.
- Vash in Trigun: Badlands Rumble complains quite loudly when a number of bandits smash his doughnut into crumbs.
"That is the meanest thing anyone's ever done to me! Why do you wanna ruin other people's food?! I can't eat a pile of smashed up crumbs!"
- As well as the original series, you waste or step on perfectly good pudding. Milly will drop you where you stand.
- It should be noted that the characters live in an environment of extreme scarcity, so this kind of attitude is reasonable, but in their case, it's still treated as excessive and humorous.
- In one story in Urusei Yatsura, Ataru and Lum end up spending a quiet evening at home with Ataru's parents gone. Lum even makes a special dinner for him. Unfortunately, their dinner and their night get interrupted by angry/jealous boys from their school who invade Ataru's house. In the process, they wreck Lum's dinner for Ataru - which pisses her off big time.
- In an extra gag page of Vampire Knight, Yuuki can be seen punching Zero when she believes he ate the pudding she was saving (it was actually Headmaster Cross who ate it).
- In The Wallflower's Valentines Day Episode, Sunako had spent the episode fiercely craving the day's chocolate while her Bishōnen room-mates had been avoiding their fangirls all school-day. This culminates in her finally making her own decadent, layered and exceedingly-tall chocolate cake at home while the rest of them are starving and exhausted. Soon after she gets a single bite, they've already devoured most of it.
"But that Valentine's chocolate was supposed to be for me..."
- In Ultimate Muscle, our cowardly hero Mantarou is unwillingly shipped off to Earth and would rather not fight the dMp thug who accosts him and Meat. Then the thug makes the mistake of trashing the boxed lunch Mantarou's mom packed, and Mantarou wipes the floor with the guy.
- Yo-Kai Watch has a number of sketches involving Nate being inspirited by a Yokai named "Gourmand" at lunchtime. He obsesses over any and everything he eats, giving flowery and ridiculous descriptions of each bite or the food in general, but he never gets to finish it. He usually ends up dropping it, losing it to someone else or ruining it. This is his Despair Event Horizon. During his flowery rants, he'll talk about how people don't know how to properly enjoy whatever it is they're eating that day.
- The Disney comic "Tele Paperopoli International" has a Big Eater technician mourn tearfully for his sandwiches after they're lost in a fire in the TV studio.
- In Lobo: Portrait of a Victim, a bar shootout occurs when the troublesome Aggro Gang decides to toss their crusts of their eaten pizza about, with one of them landing into the unsuspecting mug of one (soon to die) complainer. Several bullets (and dead people) later, one of the bullets strikes the Main Man's hard-earned mug of beer. You should already know what happens when the Main Man gets angry.
- Red Sonja in her The Art of Blood and Fire run is a functional alcoholic generally appalled when alcohol should be present but isn't. She's horrified when Gribaldi wastes good ale by cooking with it. Later she uses his soup as an improvised weapon to his own horror.
- Super Mario Adventures: for a brief moment, after losing his lunch box when Mario accidentally squashes it flat, Luigi utters a Big "NO!" and cries, saying he's "been having pipe dreams about that cannelloni".
- Tintin: In "The Crab with the Golden Claws", Captain Haddock is willing to run headlong into gunfire (swearing like well, a sailor) when a Bedouin sniper shatters his precious bottle of whiskey (which he'd stolen from the Foreign Legion commander's office).
- Wonder Woman (1942): Taking candy or other sweets from Etta is a good way to ensure you'll be pummeled, which for some reason does not stop Oscar from regularly buying her a box of chocolates and then trying to see how many he can steal for himself. He ends up getting decked just for sliding an arm around her on a date because she figures he's just trying to sneak some of the candy.
- Occurs in The Boys when Hughie talks to The Female from her bedside while she's in a coma and tries to take one of her chocolate limes. She then immediately wakes up and breaks his arm.
- Peanuts
- In one strip, Snoopy is sleeping on his doghouse as Woodstock walks in, whistling happily. Then Snoopy is woken up by an angry shout from inside, followed by Woodstock storming off. In the last panel, Snoopy says, "I ate the last piece of cheesecake!"
- In this strip, Linus gets very upset after Lucy breaks a cookie in his milk. Lucy tried to tell him to calm him by saying, "Never cry over sludged milk!"
- In another strip, Linus has a craving for a jelly-bread sandwich but finds out they're out of jelly. His reaction is, "AAAUUGH!'
- In Airplane II: The Sequel, the announcement that there is no more coffee sparks a riot on board, after far graver news does not garner a reaction.
- Birds of Prey (and the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn): After being chased through the streets by low-level Gotham thugs and street cops, Harley Quinn's post-hangover breakfast sandwich gets knocked into the street in a confrontation with Renee Montoya.
- Parodied at Blue Jasmine, where Chili, reunited with his fiance Ginger, tells her to not touch the last slice of pizza. She takes it and dangles it in front of his face, teasing, "Is this yours? Is this yours?" He not only grabs the pizza, but snatches her up too and takes her away to the bedroom, where we overhear him saying, "This is mine, and this is mine, and this is mine..."
- The Caine Mutiny (where the "strawberry incident" is the defense's biggest argument to prove Queeg's incompetence) is an example where it is not played for laughs, and a good example of why treating such a thing as Serious Business is an unhealthy obsession.
- In Every Which Way but Loose, a big good ol' boy at a bar gets annoyed when Philo repeatedly reaches across him to grab a handful of peanuts from the bowl (presumably to bring home for Clyde the orangutan). When Philo takes his last handful, the guy yells, "Put 'em back!" and begins mocking Philo, earning him a punch to the jaw.
- In Go West, Young Lady, Killer Pete's gunshots cause Bill's Endangered Soufflé to fall, which in turn makes her go downstairs an confront the murderous outlaw armed only with the fallen soufflé.
- In the original Home Alone this sparks the fight between Kevin and his older brother Buzz when the latter taunts the former about having eaten the last slice of cheese pizza before Kevin even got any.
- In Police Academy 6: City Under Siege, after blacking out the city, the three crooks are laughing and walking down a street with ice cream cones, when Ox drops one of his; he yells, "Oh, Crapola!", then grabs the edge of a car, and tips it over. Ace remarks, "He is such a baby..."
- In the first Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie, the turtles hold a memorial service for a pizza that has grown moldy in their lair.
- Tallahassee in Zombieland is on a quest for Twinkies throughout the film. He nearly breaks down upon finding one that has been hit by a stray bullet. Happy ending: He later finds a fresh Twinkie. The "grievance" part is pretty well justified once the rest of the crew figures out that Tallahassee is focusing on this obsession to try not to think of the fact he lost his baby boy to the zombies.
- In Saki's story "The Chaplet", the chef of a hotel is horrified when the dining room orchestra strikes up the title musical piece, as everyone stops to listen and either let his carefully prepared dishes grow cold or just kind of munch on them without really tasting them. When the conductor insists on an encore, the chef drowns him in a soup tureen.
- In The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, Arthur Dent is informed that the earth has been destroyed, and tries to process the information. The sheer enormity of the entire planet being gone is too much for him, so he tries to break it down one item at a time. Losing his friends and family? No reaction. New York no longer exists? No reaction. Every Bogart film erased? Ouch. No such thing as a McDonald's hamburger?! Arthur passes out from shock.
- Gollum in The Lord of the Rings is hardly pleased with cooked meat, seeing it as "spoiled" when he'd rather have it raw. This ends up as just another way him and Sam butt heads, particularly when Sam turns a rabbit he caught into a stew.
- The movie turned it into a minor meme: "Stupid fat hobbit! You ruins it!"
- Occasionally happens (and always Played for Laughs) in Ranger's Apprentice, due to Horace being a Big Eater.
- Mr. Men: The story Mr. Strong And The Ogre has Little Miss Tiny crying when one of the titular ogres steals her lollipop.
- Taken to perhaps its ultimate extreme in We Have Always Lived in the Castle, in which the narrator Merricat is Denied Food as Punishment and takes revenge by poisoning her whole family.
- 30 Rock: One day a year the Teamsters give everyone these awesome sandwiches from a deli they know about but won't tell anyone else where it is. Liz goes into a blinding rage when her sandwich is stolen.
Liz: (to Kenneth) I don't know how, but you're going to get me another sandwich. Or I'm going to cut your face up so bad, you'll have a chin. (turns to everyone) You'll all have chins!
- Sadly, one reason why dogs on Animal Planet Heroes programs can end up being euthanized is if they react violently to a rubber hand held near their food as they're eating, demonstrating that they're too aggressive to be adoptable.
- In a Season One episode of Brooklyn Nine-Nine, Terry, Gina, and Amy go on a diet which prescribes them very little portions of food. Irritable from hunger already, the fire-breathing dragon is unleashed when Amy's almond is stepped on.
Amy: Sorry?! You bumbling son of a bitch! You just ruined my life! I hope you get hit by a truck and a dog takes a dump on your FACE! I HOPE YOU DROWN IN A TUB! I HOPE YOU HAVE ANEURYSM AFTER ANEURYSM AFTER ANEURYSM!
- One episode of Castle has the eponymous character highly irritated that his leftovers are disappearing from his fridge, so much so that he sets a booby trap in the fridge consisting of a dye-pack such as those used by banks to thwart robberies. His teen daughter was not amused when she ended up looking like a smurf.
- Doctor Who: Minisode "Good Night" features a Played for Drama version, when Amy finds out that the worst day of her life was, apparently, the day when she dropped an ice cream she was going to eat. The Doctor takes her back to buy herself a new one.
Amy: Hang on. Did I... did I drop an ice cream? That CAN'T be my saddest memory.
The Doctor: Remembering ice cream is always sad.
- One episode of Friends features an incident in which Ross' sandwich (specially made by Monica out of Thanksgiving leftovers) is eaten by one of his coworkers. Ross' reaction is enough to convince his boss that he has "rage issues." His "MY SANDWICH?!" scream became one of the series' most famous moments.
- In another episode, Joey is on a date, a date that ends poorly when she steals a few french fries from his plate.
- To broaden the trope, in the final season of How I Met Your Mother the gang plan to toast Barney and Robin's wedding with a bottle of well-aged Glen McKenna, a highly-regarded, very expensive scotch described by Robin as old enough to buy its own scotch. Unfortunately for them, the bottle and their replacements get broken before anyone could drink it. Their final bottle is accidentally broken by the Jerkass lead singer of the wedding band and Ted is so angry he punches the guy in the face. The Mother, who plays bass in the band, anonymously buys Ted a glass of an even older vintage as a thank you for putting the singer in his place.
- Nevel on ICarly once yelled at a little girl for accidentally knocking over a jar of pickles he was going to buy at the supermarket. This was caught on video and spread viral, making him a laughingstock.
- In the Leverage episode "The Double Blind Job", two mooks are chasing a young woman, who collides with Hardison, who collides with Eliot behind him, spilling Eliot's coffee.
Mook: FBI, sir. That young lady's in our custody!
Hardison: (laughs) Oh, see, you made two mistakes, brah. First, you flashed that fake-assed FBI badge at me. Second, you spilled his coffee. (nods to Eliot, who has coffee down his shirt. Cue Disproportionate Retribution Curb-Stomp Battle)
- In the Lucifer (2016) episode "Trip to Stabby Town", Dan is upset that someone (namely Lucifer) keeps eating his clearly labeled pudding. The influence of Azrael's Blade, which compels people to kill over the slightest grievance, nearly drives Dan to stab Lucifer to death over said labeled pudding.
- A variant occurs in the M*A*S*H episode "Adam's Ribs". Hawkeye goes out of his way to order and have delivered to the 4077th (which is in Korea, remember, in the middle of a war zone) 40 pounds of ribs (plus sauce) from a restaurant called Adam's Ribs in Chicago, Illinois. And why did he go to such trouble? Because he was sick of army food and Adam's Ribs was the best food he could think of. At the end of the episode, the ribs are delivered and cooked and Hawkeye settles down to dig in... just in time for choppers and ambulances full of wounded people to arrive. Col. Blake and Trapper have to drag him out of the mess tent as he protests.
- Mystery Science Theater 3000: During the time travel story arc, Pearl and Observer discover that Professor Bobo has become a celebrity in ancient Rome. Observer fears that Bobo's meddling with history could have dire effects on the timeline, but Pearl doesn't care. Observer convinces her to care by pointing out that, in the altered timeline, the Nabisco company may never come into being, thus "No more Chicken In A Biskit":
Pearl: "Bobo is messing with my. Favorite. SNACK CRACKER?!"
- Also, in the episode Hercules and the Captive Women, when a scene is shown with a couple of people running back and forth on the deck of a ship, Joel and the bots improvise an argument about a missing dinner roll and fruit cup.
- NCIS: Gibbs Rule #23: Never mess with a Marine's coffee, if you want to live.
- Gibbs also gets annoyed with Vance over a ruined danish. His Death Glare ensures that Vance will one day pay him back for it (which he does).
- New Tricks: When somebody steals a sausage roll from Gerry's desk, he becomes obsessed with finding the thief.
- Subverted twice over on an episode of Power Rangers Lost Galaxy after Maya eats a birthday cake that Kendrix makes for Damon's birthday. Most viewers would at first consider Maya an Ungrateful Bitch for doing that and getting angry when Kendrix blows her top... Until Maya realizes what it was for. (A case of Poor Communication Kills; Mirinoians don't celebrate birthdays.)
- In the Seinfeld episode "The Understudy," Jerry's girlfriend cries after dropping a hot dog she was eating.
- Stargate Atlantis: Harmony steals John's chocolate and frames Rodney.
- On the "Trouble With Tribbles" episode of Star Trek, Kirk is not the least bit happy to find tribbles in his coffee and chicken sandwich. (Of course, he could simply be upset because of the bigger problem, that the tribbles are in the food dispensers - along with everything else - and causing everybody problems.)
- In El Chavo del ocho, one of Chavo's major Berserk Buttons is seeing food getting wasted or carelessly thrown away, which is understandable because, as a poor kid with no money, Chavo doesn't have an easy access to food and drink as other people in the Vecindad.
- In Deadpool, Cable is able to convince Deadpool to battle Mister Sinister by pointing out that Sinister's success also means the destruction of his favorite taco restaurant. This shows the potential overlap with Food as Bribe.
- In Disgaea 2: Cursed Memories, Etna has gone rogue from Laharl's court, and considers him a deadly enemy, even fantasizing about murdering him over and over again. The reason? He stole her dessert!
- In Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze, we first see Bashmaster lounging on an ice floe floating in a pool of juice while licking a popsicle. Donkey Kong falls onto the platform, knocking the popsicle out of Bashmaster's hand and into the juice, where it is promptly eaten by piranhas. Bashmaster angrily looks at DK, who smiles sheepishly. Cue Boss Battle.
- As for Donkey Kong himself, he's largely presented as being more laid back than his predecessor, but the theft of his bananas upsets him like nothing else. That said, it's not the loss of one banana that typically sets him off so much as the loss of his clan's entire food supply.
- In Dynasty Warriors and Warriors Orochi 3, one of Sima Zhao's conquest stages has him being attacked by his brother Sima Shi because he ate one his meat buns.
- This is how the plot of Kirby: Squeak Squad begins, with someone stealing a strawberry shortcake just as Kirby was about to eat it. Getting it back is practically Kirby's entire motive for the entire game.
- This is also basically the original Japanese plot of Kirby's Dream Land (and by extension the Spring Breeze mode in Kirby Super Star) - Kirby going after King Dedede because he stole everyone's food. Kirby is so obsessed with food that there are fandom jokes about Kirby destroying random warlords and Eldritch Abominations because someone ruined his lunch that day and he will not stop until the culprit gets their just desserts.
- In Luigi's Mansion 3, Chef Soulfflé is introduced cooking a very smoky fish meal in a pan. Luigi vacuums up the smoke so he can see through the kitchen; a startled Chef Soulfflé accidentally drops the fish from the pan and angrily attacks Luigi in response.
- In Persona 4, Yukiko brings fried tofu on ramen for her lunch. She offers some to both The Protagonist and Yosuke, and after taking a bite, the two of them rapidly eat the whole thing. (The player themselves have no say in this.) She's understandably ticked off for the rest of the scene.
- It happens to her again later on in the story when the group is eating at a ramen shop together, and Teddie discreetly nabs her unfinished bowl. He was left unable to move after having 10 of them along with hers, and she said something about leaving the bear behind.
- In PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale, Sweet Tooth is spending a scene admiring the strawberry ice cream cone he'd just prepared, even going so far as to carve a smiley face into the "round ball of heaven." His rivalry battle begins after Kratos knocks the cone to the ground for no reason (incidentally turning the smiley face upside down).

- In Punch-Out!! on the Wii, Soda Popinski will occasionally get out a bottle and drink it to restore his health. However, you can knock it out of his hands before he has a chance. If you do, he'll launch a flurry of powerful uppercuts very quickly at you.

Weepned: But it was somebody's!
- The Loud House. Throughout the episode "Potty Mouth," everyone believes that they heard Lily say "Damn it," when actually she just wanted a doughnut. She does eventually get one in the end, only for Charles, the family dog, to steal it from her, which causes her to get so angry, that she lets out a real swear word.
- Lily gets hit with this again in the episode, "Any Given Sundae," where she was about to have her very first ice cream sundae. Just as she was about to taste it, a pigeon swoops down and knocks the sundae out of Lily's hands. And to make things worse, the family can't buy her another one because the ice cream shop closed early that day, which causes poor Lily to burst into tears. It does work out in the end though as the family heads to Flip's store and make up another sundae for Lily to enjoy.

Shaggy complains, "What a waste of perfectly good kabobs!"
- Homer from The Simpsons frequently displays this behaviour towards donuts and beer:
Homer: This is not happening! This is not happening!
- In one episode, he gives a Big "NO!" and bursts into tears while watching a science experiment in which a donut is burned in order to show how many calories it contains.
- Really egregious in the episode in which Santa's Little Helper (the family dog) has to go to obedience school for chronic misbehavior. Marge is crestfallen when her mother's heirloom quilt is destroyed after being in her family for several generations. Homer is unconcerned, and very insincerely tries to comfort her...until he notices that Santa's Little Helper also ate his cookie, at which point he screams, cries, and finally decides that something needs to be done about the dog.
Brockman: I don't read the news until I get my danish.
- In a Treehouse of Horror segment, Bart uses a time-stopping watch to make donuts disappear one by one as Homer is about to eat them. Homer ends up trying to stab himself in despair, but Bart replaces the knife with a banana.
- Yet another Treehouse of Horror episode has Homer having an accident with Time Travel and ends up creating an almost perfect future in which the family is rich, the kids are well-behaved and his hated sisters-in-law Patty and Selma are dead. He's prepared to accept this universe until he learns that no-one knows the word 'donut', which terrifies him enough to make him reactivate the time machine to fix the timeline (too late to see that in this universe, it rains donuts).
- Homer isn't the only character sensitive to lost food. In "Bart Gets Famous", we learn Kent Brockman really loves his danishes. When Bart swipes Brockman's Danish (which resembles more of a cinnamon roll) to give it to Krusty, Brockman discovers his pastry missing and won't do the news report. (He is quickly replaced by Bumblebee Man, who actually does a better job than Kent himself - until his usual zany persona takes over.)
- In another episode, during a soccer riot, someone knocks over all the beer Barney was carrying, which makes him so angry, he lets out a loud yell before plowing through the crowd like a battering ram.
- South Park. At the beginning of "The Death of Eric Cartman", the boys are at Stan's house, waiting for Stan's mom to come home with their KFC. When it arrives, instead of helping with groceries, Cartman steals the crispy delicious skin off all the pieces in the bucket and goes home. The boys are devastated; Kenny actually begins sobbing from the trauma. As this is the most heinous thing Cartman's ever done, the other boys stop speaking to him, which leads him to believe he's dead and they can't see him anymore.
- Spongebob Squarepants: In "Moving Bubble Bass", Bubble Bass gets Spongebob and Patrick to help him move with the offer of a free lunch. But when the boys learn Bubble Bass not only tricked them into doing all the heavy lifting but ate the food he was going to offer them, Patrick loses his cool.
Patrick: If my friend Spongebob doesn't get his free lunch (cue close-up animated in Synchro-Vox) things are gonna get crazy!
- Steven Universe: In "Monster Buddies", the title character manages to train one of the normally violent monsters that he and the team fight. When the other crystal gems find out, Steven attempts to show that he has trained it by commanding it to fire its acidic spit on command (triggered by squawking like a seagull). Since they are indoors, this naturally hits several objects, most notably a picture of Pearl on the wall, which aggravates both her and Garnet, but Amethyst thinks it's hilarious. At least she does until some of the acid spit hits the sandwich in her hands note . She is quick to turn on the little creature after that.
Amethyst: NOOOOO!!! MI TORTAAA!!!
- Happens at the end of Teen Titans Go!, "Legendary Sandwich", when Silkie sneaks in while the Titans (sans Raven) are bickering over who gets the first taste of the sandwich and outright devours it himself, only to spew it back out moments later.
- In the Thomas the Tank Engine episode "Thomas Comes to Breakfast", Thomas, thanks to a careless cleaner, crashes into a house where the stationmaster and his family live. His wife was furious and yells at Thomas for ruining the family breakfast, seemingly more concerned with that than the property damage inflicted by a steam train crashing into their house.
- A man in Baltimore pulls a gun on his family for taking a bite of his sandwich. (No, seriously, he did. Fortunately, it seems the police were not amused.)
- One of a handful of Homicide Hunter cases that haven't been covered in the TV show (but is in Kenda's new book) involves an elderly man who shot his slacker grandson after the latter wolfed down the Popeye's chicken wings he'd just bought.

You probably heard the expression are you a man or a mouse thousands of times. We have it in Swedish too. "Är du en man eller en mus?"
Just a quick comment to my Swedish reader before I continue:
Ursäkta att texten är på engelska, men bloggen har över tusen utländska följare som under tre års tid har följt Trosas småstadsliv genom mina texter och bilder. De bryr sig om vår lilla plats på jorden. Att rädda natur är också en internationell fråga och inte bara något som angår vår lilla ankdamm. Hoppas ni stannar kvar och läser resten, trots avsaknaden av svensk text.
The traditional interpretation of that expression is probably some old ancient matcho bla bla bla. But in these days when we all need to learn to be planet attendants we should change the meaning of that challenge.
Are you a (hu)man or a mouse? It's kind of rude to mouses to call little tiny men that doesn't care for nature mouses, but you get the idea I think. Sorry all real nature mouses!
The new matcho is to save nature. Can you agree with me on that one?
Like this
In my town Trosa in Sweden we fight for saving nature with all powers we can find.
Our politicians are a big step behind present time. They still don't know about Paris agreement. I don't think they've heard about planet attendants or that nature has started to send us bills for our pollution activities. They don't seems to have ears to listen with or brains to think with. They're just hungry for the next piece of cheese the big landowner in Trosa put out as a bait.
In Swedish this drawing is really funny when it comes to the bait. We have a cheese called "hushållsost" household cheese. The bait in reality are house building projects in Trosa nature. We don't need thousands of new houses, we need to save nature!
You probably have the same issues where you live. The human mouses are everywhere. So, are you a human that wants to save nature or a mouse that wants to eat baits from ugly fishes all day?

If you want to sign our list for saving Trosa nature you can use this form and send it by post or email. Everyone can sign. We care for our nature so that both visitors and citizens can enjoy our beautiful nature in the future too.
I wish you good luck with your saving nature projects if you have such projects. We can all make a difference in the right direction if we have the courage to be the new matcho human planet attendants 🙂
If you want to share this, you are welcome to do so. Sharing is caring as Danny always says.
