| Glove Snap | comment |
When the Mad Doctor or Medic is ready to "operate", this almost always includes shoving his hands into big latex gloves with a thrusting motion while tugging on the back of the glove with the other hand; then there's a loud snap at the end when the back of the glove is released. Usually done with the forearm facing upward, though downward-facing variations exist too. Pretty much a Mad Doctor and Medic staple, and also pretty common in cartoons. Usually meant to inspire fear or to startle; usually part of the Creepy Physical. Compare Gloved Fist of Doom. Also see Ass Shove, which frequently uses this as a family-friendly suggestion. Not to be confused with the Glove Slap. |

In one scene in The Superior Foes of Spider-Man, First-Person Smartass Boomerang describes The Chew Toy fellow villain Mirage as not talking despite undergoing lots of "probing" by more fearsome villains Chameleon and Owl. The illustration shows Chameleon clad in surgical garb and sporting a Slasher Smile as he snaps a glove (labeled "genuine latex") onto his wrist. | |

This happens a couple times in American Dad!: One early episode has Stan being overly paranoid about some new neighbors of Iranian (but born American) decent, and holds a block party in order to please Francine as well. When Bob Memari bends down to look into the soda cooler, Stan puts on the glove, and Bob notices. It become a Running Gag in another episode when Roger constantly puts one on in order to offer someone else a hand job. |

In the SpongeBob SquarePants episode "House Worming", after Prickles the worm and his residents start living in SpongeBob's head and it gets him fired from his work, he meets Plankton who agrees to get rid of the worms in exchange of a deed (getting the Krabby Patty secret formula, of course). SpongeBob agrees and Plankton pulls on a large glove that snaps to somehow fit his little stubby arms (that have no visible digits or fingers, mind you) before making a lousy joke and entering inside SpongeBob's head... only to get the living daylights battered and beaten out of him by the worms and is left crippled and gives up on the extermination, telling SpongeBob that he's on his own to get rid of the worms. | |

Later when a group of lemurs starts to ask too much questions he snaps his glove again and winks at them suggesting they should shut up.
