Alice, Bob and Charlie are chatting together, and Charlie viciously launches an insult at Bob; but Bob, Master of Missing the Point, fires back, "I won't let you insult Alice like that!" Occasionally this will take an alternate form where Bob hasn't missed the point at all but is deliberately misinterpreting the insult as a form of snark. Not to be confused with Insult Backfire. Compare Insult Friendly Fire, Wrong Insult Offence, Insult to Rocks. |

In Cluster, Flint of Outworld is visiting a planet with a dueling society, during which he attends a party where he stands between two men who are constantly hurling insults at him. When a lady nearby asks if he is going to continue to let them insult him, he innocently says, "I thought they were talking about each other." | |

In the third Adam Warren miniseries of the Dirty Pair, we find perhaps the ultimate misfired insult. Kei's just had an exotic weapon snatched from her hand by a man who fears she'll set it off. "Set it off? Do I look as decerebrate as one of your KalSec morons!?" she demands of him. "Actually, no! We have standards for our morons!" he replies, and probably realizes a few moments later what he's just actually said. | |

In an episode of Mother & Son, Arthur attempts to get Robert to take care of Maggie for two weeks, so he can take his girlfriend to New Zealand. Robert dismisses his concerns, telling him they're all in his head, and walks out. Arthur yells back, "'All in my head'?! She's half-loony, she's absent-minded, and she can't look after herself!" He then turns around and apologises to Maggie, who replies, "That's alright, Arthur. But she sounds like a strange choice for you to go to New Zealand with." | |

Played with in The Order of the Stick, when Elan starts making jokes about Nale's physical attributes and parentage in the middle of battle. Nale points out repeatedly (to no avail) that because he and Elan are identical twins, Elan is insulting himself just as much as Nale with such quips. | |

El Chavo del ocho: In one episode, Don Ramon entered Professor Jirafales' class claiming he wanted to learn. (He just wanted a place where he'd be safe from Doña Florinda) When El Chavo first saw him there, he believed it was an old kid who looked like Don Ramon. When Don Ramon stated something like "I am, idiot!", El Chavo said they had even that in common. It happens frequently regarding Quico. Often when someone calls another "The dumbest person in the world" Quico will appear and say "Did you call me?" |

Used as the punchline of one Archie Comics story. Principal Weatherbee catches Archie fresh from a fight with another student, and about to reprimand him when Archie explains that the other guy had insulted his father. Weatherbee is actually sympathetic to Archie's excuse, as he considers those kinds of insults to be below the belt, and lets Archie off with a warning. As Weatherbee leaves, Jughead comes over and asks what the insult that set Archie off was, and Archie replies "What the creep said - and I quote exactly - was 'Arch, your dad's got a stupid son!'". | |

Miss Hathaway asked the guard if he knew who he was talking to, to which the guard says it's one crazy lady and another one in a bad wig.

Darths & Droids: Pete says that Sally (who borders on Cloudcuckoolander at times) is in his "top forty percent" of people he believes should lead, as he doesn't like Ben and doesn't really respect Jim or Annie. Jim, missing the implied insult, then wonders aloud why Pete would rank Sally over himself. In a later comic, Corey (playing Luke) refers to Wedge (who Corey believes will backstab him) and Biggs (who speaks like a stereotypical American southerner) as "the yokel and the psychopath". Wedge argues that he's not a yokel, and Biggs argues that Luke is not a psychopath. |

There was a dramatic example in Life on Mars (2006) in the case of a teenage rape and murder suspect who was convicted partly due to a series of misunderstandings. According to Annie's version of events, Gene Hunt made a joke at the boy's expense about having Annie look after him, and the boy, thinking Annie was the target of the joke, made a crack about breastfeeding. Gene thought it was a comeback and knocked him on his ass. | |

Kitchen Nightmares: In "Amy's Baking Company", Amy thanks Gordon profusely after he tells her that "there's something not quite right here" with her and Samy's claims that they have the best food and service, as though she feels vindicated in her belief that she's being unfairly antagonized by everyone. By this point in the episode, however, Amy and Samy had already disclosed to Gordon that they have a vindictive view of their customers and employees, along with several other red flags related to their management of the restaurant. Being as self-centered as she is, Amy was unable to see that Gordon's comment was referring to them. | |

Doctor Who: In "The Sontaran Stratagem", smug Teen Genius Luke Rattigan, who believes the Doctor works for UNIT (he certainly used to, but works more with them on occasion now), tries to insult him, but the Doctor assumes he's talking about his escort instead: | |

In one episode of the anime adaptation of Koihime†Musou, someone insults Rin Rin by calling her flat-chested. Her response is to demand that they apologize to Shuri immediately. | |

Masquerade (Vellaen): One of the guards in Sumire's Palace tells the Phantom Thieves that, "Unscrupulous gentlemen and unchaperoned ladies are not permitted within. Only couples may enter, invitees and their designated guests." Ryuji starts to reply, “Hey, who are you callin' unscrup—" before remembering that Ann had already been accepted and he had been accepted as her guest. "Oh, right. Not me. Wait, are you callin' my friends here unscrupulous?" | |

Code Monkeys does this when Noshi calls Todd a "fat homosexual with horn hat". Todd says that nobody talks to Black Steve that way. | |

In Dawn of a New Age: Oldport Blues, Benedict approaches Hyeon and says he requires the help of Hyeon's diminutive friend. Hyeon takes it as a wisecrack against his buddy Eddie when in reality Benedict was referring to Hyeon's pet squirrel. | |

In The Batman, Scarface seems fond of intentionally invoking this trope, redirecting insults directed at him onto the Ventriloquist, which largely works due to the weird "who's in control?" nature of their relationship. | |

A hilarious and intentional one in an episode of Babylon 5. Londo and G'Kar are on Centauri Prime, speaking with a Centauri minister (with G'Kar present ostensibly as Londo's bodyguard). For the unfamiliar, while Londo is also a Centauri, G'Kar is a Narn, and there has historically been bad blood between the two races. | |
