Spoof Aesop	comment	An Aesop is one of the most played with tropes in fiction. It has come to the point where parodies of them are becoming as repetitive as the morals themselves. There are several common ways to do this: Non sequitur morals, which get sillier and sillier. Backward morals, where the characters learn the exact opposite of what you'd expect them to. Morals that, although apropos and completely true, are extremely unlikely to become relevant again. A pun on a Stock Aesop that only makes sense in context. A Captain Obvious Aesop played for laughs. An intentional Space Whale Aesop. Ignored Aesop, in which characters use a generous dose of Lampshade Hanging to discuss what the moral is that they were supposed to learn. After going through several possibilities they end up concluding that they either learned something ridiculous or didn't learn anything at all. A Broken Aesop that immediately has a lampshade hung on its brokenness. Sometimes this can lead to an Ignored Aesop (as above) or a character pointing out the opposite of the lesson—often doing something immoral, or sometimes simply something neutral and logical—would avoid any trouble and thus nullifies said lesson. A Clueless Aesop that is negatively affected in a Meta sense can overlap. When adding examples, bear in mind that just because a work is a spoof and has An Aesop, it's not necessarily a Spoof Aesop automatically. See also Broken Aesop for when "action doesn't support the aesop" is unintentional. To add these to other works, check out Warp That Aesop.

Spoof Aesop / int_11b7db91	comment	Adventure Time The original short. In one episode, Finn tries to make everyone happy by fixing all their problems for them, but discovers it's impossible, because there's too many problems to fix and solving one always means making a different one worse. Then Jake asks, "What do YOU want, Finn?" and of course the viewer expects Finn to have an aesop and realize that he can't please everybody all the time. There's a pause, then Finn proceeds to fix everyone's problems and make everyone happy anyway. Another episode had the Magic Man turns Finn into a foot after Finn gives him a sugar cube in order to teach him a lesson. In the end, Finn tells the Magic Man he's learned his lesson that he shouldn't have hesitated when he gave him the sugar cube. Magic Man still keeps Finn as a foot, prompting Finn to say "You're a jerk" - which turns out to be the actual lesson that the Magic Man was trying to teach him. Finn and Jake later conclude that the lesson was "Never give sugar to jerks". "His Hero" had the Aesop of "Never listen to old people". Given by an old person. Somehow Finn never noticed the glaring Logic Bomb. The moral of "The Other Tarts" is that "This cosmic dance bursting with decadence and withheld permissions twists all our arms collectively, but... If sweetness can win, (and it can!), then I'll still be here tomorrow to high-five you yesterday, my friends. Peace." "Slumber Party Panic" has (paraphrased) "Breaking promises leads to awesome adventures." "The Jiggler" has "kidnapping people is bad." From "Web Weirdos":

Which they won't do if they don't know about it. This explains why it is important to shoot missionaries on sight."

Spoof Aesop / int_1370761	comment	The second season finale of Scream Queens (2015) has Chanel survive another serial killer attack, then go on to find success. In the epilogue, she delivers what she sees is the moral of the story: she survived because she stayed true to herself and didn't compromise. The joke is that, while this sounds like a good moral, it's not what she should have learned. Most of the killers in the series were after her because she stayed true to herself, and she only survived through pure luck or through other people stopping the serial killers. Chanel just doesn't have self-awareness, and thus doesn't get that she was supposed to learn how her behavior constantly turned people against her.

Spoof Aesop / int_144ea6e4	comment	Othello is adapted from an Italian story in which Desdemona delivers a Writer on Board speech saying Venetian/Italian women can't trust Turks or Moors or foreigners in general. Shakespeare leaves the plot largely unchanged but replaces this with a more appropriate speech by the villain saying a Moor such as Othello was silly to trust (an Italian?) man (himself) over his own wife, a Venetian... we can only guess at the contemporary audience reaction. But to audiences in slaving states of the Antebellum United States in particular, and to some extent Anglophone audiences in general in the 19th and 20th centuries, the idea that a negro or oriental should be cautious of trusting a European was (quite) laughable. And, of course, completely true. One seventeenth-century critic of the play complained that the moral seemed to be that women should keep track of their hankies at all times.

"Litter Kills: Litterally" sets up a Green Aesop with an over-the-top scenario in which Ponce de Leon dies due to the copious litter left on the law. The clones clean up the lawn... but this results in the janitor losing his job. "The Principal Principle: Sub-Zero to Sub Hero" ends with a Be Yourself moral where Confucius realizes he doesn't have to force himself to be strong and manly just to impress Harriet. Then he casually takes off his jacket and reveals he has an incredible set of muscles, and Harriet ignores everything he says to fawn over him. This actually pisses Confucius off enough to dump her.

When his funeral comes around, all the mourners turn out to hate him, with most of them showing up to make sure he is actually dead. Will — wracked by guilt — yells at them all for it, saying they should respect the dead. It seems like this will end the scene on An Aesop, but when they ask who he is, he answers "I'm the dude that killed him" to rapturous applause.

Spoof Aesop / int_1beda93b	comment	Sluggy Freelance has several. The story "A Carnivorous Smurf for Kimmy Sue Hasenpfeffer": The story "Cannibals Anonymous" is about Aylee overcoming her addiction to eating humans. After she's "cured", she goes Actual Pacifist on Torg just when he and Riff are being held by cannibals who intend to eat them and she's the only one who could save them. Torg decides to announce that he was wrong to force Aylee to be someone she wasn't, and to make it up, he'd like her to eat all the cannibals in the room. (Even she doesn't buy it, until he says "Who's the prettiest alien in the world?") The aftermath prompts the following Aesops: Riff's story "The Isle of the Ployees" ends with: This story also seems to have a real aesop, which is that corporate jobs suck or something, but it turns out it's just a dream he had and has no particular point. Also done in this strip in the chapter "Mandatory Applause". The Aesop's actually a decent one, but it's too much of a Space Whale Aesop to take seriously. The comic's version of the Gift of the Magi Plot, as told by Torg, features Riff and Torg selling their shoulders to science to buy each other a coat and a flannel. The person Torg is telling the story (Anthropomorphic Personification of the year 2003, as it turns out) isn't very impressed, leading to the following:

He later comes back to apologize, and tells that he learned a lesson: "Just because you look bad now, that, that doesn't mean you're gonna look bad forever! [...] I realized that this whole mess, that's just a temporary thing. But physical beauty, that lasts forever!" Jackie is touched. Another episode, "Streaking" from the first season contained one. Donna doesn't want to go with her parents to a presidential rally for Gerald Ford because she's embarrassed because she and her parents would be wearing jumpsuits to make them look like an American flag. When Kitty talks with her about it, it results in this exchange.

Spoof Aesop / int_261c8d3f	comment	The Simpsons frequently makes use of spoof Aesops. One memorable instance occurs at the conclusion of "Saddlesore Galactica", when Lisa has persuaded Bill Clinton to issue an executive order overturning the results of an elementary school band competition; "The Old Man and the Lisa" had a particularly disturbing twist on the traditional Green Aesop. Lisa spends the episode teaching Mr. Burns about recycling and conservation. Burns takes the lesson to heart... so he kills all of Springfield's marine life to create a meat slurry "made out of 100% recycled animals." Homer Simpson, when trying to give advice to his children, is an endless source of these. "Homer Badman" has the classic fourth type: During the same episode, Marge's line "As long as everyone keeps filming one another, justice will be done." was a joke back in 1994, before cell phones with built-in cameras became commonplace. Bart the General has the perfectly reasonable moral that war is bad, but stated in a rather ridiculous and rambling way: The comic collection The Simpsons Royale has two pages of this, including "Just do it. If that doesn't do it, undo it.", "The love you take is equal to the love you make, plus postage and handling fees.", "Tomorrow is the day after the first day of the rest of your life.", "Playing Solitaire is its own punishment.", "Don't follow advice you get from comic books.", and "Stalk your bliss." In "Monty Can't Buy Me Love", Homer offers an unusual version of the Be Yourself Aesop to Mr. Burns: In "Marge Simpson In: Screaming Yellow Honkers", because of her road rage, Marge gets ordered by the police to attend an anger management class, where she watches a video ending with this statement: In "A Streetcar Named Marge", Oh, Streetcar! ends on a musical number that proclaims "you can always depend on the kindness of strangers", because "a stranger's just a friend you haven't met!" Anyone even remotely familiar with A Streetcar Named Desire should know that this is definitely not the intended moral of the line that song is based on. In "Homer's Phobia", John states that since he won Homer's respect by saving his life, all he needs to get over his homophobia is for every other gay man in the world to do the same.

At the end of the short "Now Hear This", in which a man goes back to his old ear trumpet after he unwittingly uses the Devil's horn as a replacement, the moral of the story is announced as "The other fellow's trumpet always looks greener." Then there's The Looney Tunes Show, which in the first episode of season 2 had Daffy deliver the vitally important lesson "It doesn't matter whether you win or lose, because nobody cares about water polo." In a Sylvester and Tweety short, where Sylvester thinks he actually caught and ate Tweety, a voice haunts Sylvester about having committed murder. The moral at the end was, "Consciences make cowards of us all."

In "Artful Dodgers," while it's not said, it's basically the inverse of Cheaters Never Prosper. "Black Friday" is an entire episode dedicated to showing how wonderful Black Friday is. In "Lication," the moral is to never share anything. This is followed up by Cyborg saying "All robots are evil." "Pyramid Scheme" encourages viewers to commit Ponzi schemes. For several episodes, the moral of the story is "committing crimes to get what you want is okay and even cool".

Several times, Black Mage has learned a valuable Aesop - such as that a path of violence and hatred will only cause himself suffering, or that use of evil spells will alienate White Mage from him - but they just can't stick to his teflon soul and one knife-worthy comment from Fighter and he's all but forgotten they ever existed.

Spoof Aesop / int_3558eaa2	comment	Community every few episodes will do this. The G.I. Joe themed episode, "G.I. Jeff", ended with Britta lecturing a pair of teenagers heavy-handedly about spraying graffiti. Halfway through her lecture, Abed shows up to deliver an Aesop on how to deliver an Aesop. "Queer Studies and Advanced Waxing" has a subplot about Chang joining a stage adaptation of The Karate Kid, and getting mercilessly bullied by the director. Near the end, the director justifies his abuse by claiming that he truly believes Chang has the potential to be an amazing actor, but for him to reach that potential, he needs proper motivation. In the end, after all the abuse, Chang delivers a mind-blowing performance that wins mass acclaim and leaves the audience in tears. His friends are left wondering aloud exactly what lesson can be gleaned from this, since all available evidence suggests that the Jerkass director was correct all along. In "VCR Maintenance and Educational Publishing", Shirley tries to evade blame for stealing school property, trying to blackmail Chang into keeping quiet, and then assaulting and kidnapping Jeff, Hickey, and Britta by claiming that they learned a valuable lesson. In "Competitive Ecology", the group suggest various possible morals to take from the episode's events, but then decide to just blame it all on Todd.

Except sometimes kinda." "Speciation" is about how a new human species evolves that all look like adorable children, due to natural selection for people who are the best at getting their healthcare crowdfunded...

Spoof Aesop / int_426a7572	comment	Many episodes of Animaniacs ended with the Warners getting a random lesson for the day from the "Wheel of Morality". In a great gag, one of the spots reads "Bankrupt", making it both a parody of "Wheel of Fortune" and of the phrase "morally bankrupt". There's also a prize space, which they actually hit at one point. Lessons "we should learn" from the Wheel of Morality include "Never ask what hot dogs are made of," "If you don't have something nice to say, you're probably at the Ice Capades," and "If at first you don't succeed, blame it on your parents." There are even some utterly nonsensical morals, such as "2B or not 2B, that is the pencil" and "Do not back up. Severe tire damage." An example not coming from the Wheel of Morality bits came from the show's Power Rangers parody "Super Strong Warner Siblings", with Yakko, Wakko, and Dot as pseudo-Power Rangers fighting off bug monsters and the like. At the end of the short, the Warners show up to deliver the moral of the story... Averted in the movie, where the Wheel of Morality actually gave a genuinely good lesson: "Cheer up, and never give up hope".

Her rather open-minded parents (apparently suffering a mid-life crisis) tell her that they did the same thing when they were young, but have regretted it ever since.

He goes to a witch's lair and finds an enchanted box of matches that contains three matches, each of which will grant one wish. He uses the first match to escape the witch, the second to get some food from the wolves, and the third to become a prince (forgetting that the princess is fated to marry a common soldier, thus preventing himself from marrying her). The princess later marries another common soldier and the moral is "never play with matches".

Spoof Aesop / int_60f02ddb	comment	American Dad!: Stan's realization of his dream, becoming his boss Avery Bullock's Number Two, results in his unreasonably imposing on, and neglecting, Francine. Every time she tells him he must finally say "no" to Bullock, Stan immediately breaks his promise. When he finally "gets" the "stand up for yourself" Aesop, it's at the worst possible moment, when Bullock is shot and tells him to call for help. Stan ignores him and walks away even after Francine assures him it's okay to say "yes" this one time. Stan becomes accepting of gay people after becoming friends with the Log Cabin Republicans and learning that being gay is not a choice by trying to become gay himself and failing. He concludes that people shouldn't discriminate against gays, they should discriminate against Democrats instead, because being a Democrat is a choice. In "Shallow Vows", Stan and Francine's renewal of their wedding vows goes bad when Stan says he only married Francine for her looks. She suspends her normal beauty regimen and shows up to the ceremony overweight and ugly. Stan wants to fix things but can't get past Francine's looks, so he blinds himself to render it a non-issue. At first Francine is happy with Stan's more attentive, caring attitude, but balks when he says she's going to have to get a job and support the family now that he's blind, saying that she liked being married to a major bread-winner. In the end they realize that they're both shallow in different ways, and resolve not to make such a big deal about it. "The Two Hundred" finishes with don't let Roger in a hadron collider after it is revealed that Roger accidentally ended the world as we know it after getting into one.

Spoof Aesop / int_6ad790d3	comment	From Top Gear (UK): In the "$1,000 American Car" special, the trio travels to the Southeastern United States and draws the ire of the locals in every way, in some cases deliberately (like scrawling provocative messages on each other's cars like "Man Love Rules" and "NASCAR Sucks"), in others tangentially (like remarking on the devastation wrought on New Orleans by Hurricane Katrina), and in still others completely accidentally (like donating their cars at the end to local families who were impacted by Katrina, only for one of them to sue Clarkson on a technicality). The lesson they impart is "Don't go to America!" Virtually all of the "Top Gear Top Tips" are Spoof Aesops. After a serious demonstration of the effect that a 90-tonne locomotive would have on a car, Clarkson takes a page from your typical workplace safety bureaucrat with a tenuous attachment to reality: "Think! Wear a high-visibility jacket." Richard Hammond was hospitalised after crashing a Vampire dragster at 288 mph. It was pretty damn scary, and while the presenters are usually quick to rib each other, Clarkson and May mostly held off from joking about that one. But the audience certainly expected them to at least try to cross the line twice, and in Hammond's first episode back after the crash, Clarkson got the joking out of the way by intoning an Aesop in all seriousness: "Speed kills." The Reaction Shot from the very much alive Hammond is what sells it.

Spoof Aesop / int_72262aee	comment	Avatar: The Last Airbender: In "The Waterbending Scroll," Katara shoplifts a valuable scroll of waterbending techniques from pirates, which brings down both the pirates and the Fire Nation on their heads. At the end of the episode, Sokka reveals that he had the presumed-lost scroll, and demands, "First, what did you learn?" Katara says, contritely, "Stealing is wrong." Then, snatching the scroll from Sokka, she adds, "Unless it's from pirates!" (This having been Katara's original justification for stealing — that the pirates stole the scroll from a waterbender in the first place, and theft from a thief isn't really theft.) Of course, this event is suitably skewered during "The Ember Island Players" which primarily consists of a comedic fanfic-esque and Self Deprecatiing take on the Gaang's adventures: "The Fortuneteller" would have probably had the actual Aesop of Screw Destiny/don't rely heavily on another person, but as one the villagers pointed out, all of Aunt Wu's predictions did come true. However, Aunt Wu herself seemed to lean towards the Screw Destiny theme, and as for not relying too heavily on another person, the entire village was involved in stopping the lava, even if Aang did save the day. "The Cave of Two Lovers" features a group of pseudo-hippies who repeatedly tell Sokka that he needs to focus less on the destination and more on the journey, and other such platitudes. At the end of the episode, the leader, Chong, delivers an Aesop-style summation and tells Sokka he hopes he's learned something. Sokka is no more impressed than he was at the start of the episode. "The Tales of Ba Sing Se" has Iroh advise a group of kids who kicked a ball through a window that owning up to your mistakes is a sign of maturity and restoring one's honor upon a misdeed is important. Then the owner of the house, an extremely large man, pokes his head through the window and declares he's going to break them even worse, at which point Iroh informs the kids to put his moral on hold and run for it.

Others had more non sequitir messages, like "raw pork chops that you find lying on the beach are perfectly safe to eat, but you should trim the fat first, make sure there aren't any crabs on it, and check for cartons of chocolate milk washing up onshore too", and "Don't get gangrene". That last one also seemed to be a parody of the kind of Clueless Aesop that's too vague to be useful: there was no discussion of what causes gangrene or what should be done if you do get it, just constant reiteration that it is a serious, potentially life-threatening infection and you should try to avoid it.

In "The Summer of George", George's plan to fulfill his personal goals during that summer (which he declared "The Summer of George", hence the title) go terribly awry (mostly because he becomes too lazy to do anything other than loaf in his apartment all day). As a matter of fact, in the ending, he has to go into traction because his muscles have atrophied that much, making the slip and fall he got a lot more painful than it normally would be. So the moral of the story is "Never name a season after yourself; it will only end in tragedy."

Also one presented in The Rant for this strip: Or, after rejecting two fairly ordinary morals that do not apply to the (bizarre) story he just told, Coyote offers this one: "Do not be a dead goose in a bush next to a lake." According to The Rant, "a useful moral".

Being a two-player coop level it is brutally difficult and requires precision teamwork and timing to keep toggling switches to allow each other to pass. However it also has a one-player route in case you stumble across it in single-player 100 Mario mode. Said route takes you up to the clouds, with "1P EXIT" spelled out in coins and drops you right at the exit. Danny's takeaway from it is "Wow. Let it be a lesson to you.

For instance, they start out thinking that it's that old chestnut "don't be prejudiced for the beautiful and against the less attractive"...except that lesson would be rather inappropriate since the beautiful girl was innocent, and the less attractive girl was the evil Siren that was framing the beautiful one. Jake briefly considers that agreeing to date the less attractive girl in the first place would have prevented her from attacking him in the first place... but then he'd be dating a clingy, psychotic Siren who could go off at any minute. They eventually decide the lesson is "don't trust children's paper fortunetelling toys, and always wait an hour after eating before going swimming".

This leads to a loud confrontation where the brother confronts Mr. Drummond, threatens to evict the family and provokes Drummond to punch the blowhard out. This gives the landlord the excuse to exploit a lease violation that the brother found to raise the rent on the Drummonds, with a veiled threat of eviction to convince them to give in. The punchline is this: after the Drummonds cave in to this threat, the father tells the kids that this is the result of his act of violence. However, when asked if it was worth it, Mr. Drummond immediately remarks it was, for having the pleasure of shutting a bully up.

In the second half of the song, Elder McKinley also goes on a rant about how he has to crush his homosexuality because "boys should be with girls, that's heavenly father's plan — so if you ever feel you'd rather be with a man, turn it off!" One of the stories Elder Cunningham makes up in trying to persuade the Ugandans to follow Mormon doctrine has the moral that you will burn in the fiery pits of Mordor if you have sex with a baby, but use a frog instead and the Lord might cure your AIDS.

The episode "Super Speedy Cider Squeezy 6000" gives this chance to Applejack, who goes with this; She does follow it up with the real Aesop, which she just happened to know already - that hard work is better than cheating and taking shortcuts. She also says that she might have learned that her friends are always there for her, but that "the truth is, [she] knew that already, too". In "To Where and Back Again â€“ Part 1", reformed minor villain Trixie tells Starlight that if there's one thing she's learned, it's that everyone makes mistakes and that the important thing is that you move on from them and refuse to admit that they ever happened.

Spoof Aesop / int_d8c756b9	comment	"Queer Studies and Advanced Waxing" has a subplot about Chang joining a stage adaptation of The Karate Kid, and getting mercilessly bullied by the director. Near the end, the director justifies his abuse by claiming that he truly believes Chang has the potential to be an amazing actor, but for him to reach that potential, he needs proper motivation. In the end, after all the abuse, Chang delivers a mind-blowing performance that wins mass acclaim and leaves the audience in tears. His friends are left wondering aloud exactly what lesson can be gleaned from this, since all available evidence suggests that the Jerkass director was correct all along.

Spoof Aesop / int_d9c602eb	comment	South Park: The backwards moral is common on this show, with such gems as "don't vote — it makes no difference" (from "Turd and Douche").. Also, many earlier episodes in the series ended with Stan or Kyle stepping forward to announce, "You know, I learned something today..." while the music swells and the ensuing monologue leads inexorably to yet another cruel spoof of the clichÃ©d cheesy aesop one would expect in such a situation. They, however, tend to be more serious in later episodes. "Rainforest Schomainforest" ends with text on a black background, while the new "destroy the rainforest" music from the last scene keeps playing. In "Toilet Paper," the kids T.P. a teacher's house, but then decide to confess. However, Cartman—who literally cannot understand why they feel guilty—confesses first so that he is punished less than the others. He tried to give an Aesop speech about realizing that "just because you're not caught now, you can get caught later," but Kyle interrupts him, angrily noting that he learned nothing. In "The Snuke," Cartman interrogates an innocent Arab family like terrorists, and tells Kyle to research them. Kyle does and finds nothing suspicious, but in the process discovers information about an actual attack by Russian terrorists hired by the United Kingdom. Kyle points out to Cartman that his fear of Arab-Americans as terrorists was misplaced, but Cartman points out that if he hadn't suspected them, Kyle wouldn't have discovered the real terrorist plot. From "Pinkeye": In one episode (parodying the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina) where Stan and Cartman break a dam, which everyone blames on various things from global warming, to terrorists to Crab People. At the end of the episode Stan has had enough and admits "I broke the dam!" Everyone takes this metaphorically though, in that they all broke the dam, and all begin repeating "I broke the dam!" to Stan's annoyance. In "Chinpokomon", the parents narrowly keep all the kids of South Park from flying away to bomb Pearl Harbor because of a fad (It Makes Sense in Context). Then Stan notices Kyle is still going to do it, so he runs over and gives an aesop about not blindly following the crowd. Kyle points out that stopping now would be blindly following the crowd, so Stan then remarks that he learned something else right that second, and makes up an aesop about how it's good to go with the crowd sometimes. Kyle gets confused and gives up. "Korn's Groovy Pirate Ghost Mystery": This gem. "Cartman Joins NAMBLA" does the usual "I learned something today" speech, only it's from a NAMBLA member, who says that society just doesn't tolerate their life styles. They are interrupted by Stan and Kyle pointing out that they have sex with children, and saying that while they believe in free speech, he should go fuck himself. The bleeped speech near the end of "201" recommended using threats and violence to get what you want. The 1999 CD tie-in for the episode Mr. Hankey's Christmas Classics includes a reprise of the song "A Lonely Jew on Christmas," but after Kyle sings his stanza, an unnamed character comes in to cheer him up, telling him that being a Jew means he doesn't have to worry about the holiday season:

Spoof Aesop / int_ea4f62db	comment	Family Guy did the fourth variety at least once: "I think the lesson here is, it really doesnâ€™t matter where youâ€™re from, as long as weâ€™re all the same religion." From "Brian Goes Back to College": One episode (which revolves heavily around smoking and the tobacco industry) ends with Peter directly warning the audience of the dangers of... killing strippers.note A stripper was killed earlier in the episode, but it was more a short joke than anything of actual importance to the plot. In Family Guy the Spoof Aesop is the rule, not the exception. It's hard to think of a single aesop that wasn't treated like a spoof by the writers. Another episode had Stewie finish a time reversal device just as Peter learned a valuable lesson about not taking Lois for granted, thus eradicating the whole ordeal from existence. It takes him a near-death experience to relearn that one. One episode went so far as to have Lois, Stewie, and Meg make politically incorrect outbursts followed by a Spoof Aesop and the iconic "The More You Know" logo (Lois gives one about American Indians, Stewie gives one about Mexicans, and Meg gives one about Swedish people). Except the last one, in which Peter calls Canadians freeloaders, then just flat out says, "Canada sucks!" after a minute of silence. "Premarital sex turns straight people gay, and gays into Mexicans. We all go down a notch." "It doesn't matter whether you're black or white. The only colour that matters is green." The ending of "April in Quahog", where after Peter's heartfelt speech fails to convince the kids he loves them he decides to use bribery as a last resort and wins them over with a new Xbox 360. And who could forget: "Of course I love you, son—I just don't like you." "Not All Dogs Go To Heaven" (for all the vitriol it has against it for its Broken Aesop) has Meg learning that religion doesn't have all the answers about life, but whatever the answer is, it's probably something far greater than we could ever imagine. The show then pans out to show that the universe is all part of Adam West's bedside lamp. The episode with O.J Simpson spends the whole episode teaching not to blindly believe popular opinion and to judge people only after getting to know them. One minute before the end, O.J stabs two people and runs away with the crowd after him. "Family Goy" had the moral of "It doesn't really matter what religion you are, because they're all complete crap." "Here's to our neighbours. Sure, they may be black (Cleveland), handicapped (Joe), and a perverted sex hound (Quagmire), but without them, some damn Hawaiians might move in." In "Fresh Heir", Carter changes his will to leave his entire fortune to Chris, due to Chris spending time with him because Peter wouldn't (with Chris). When getting on Chris' good side didn't work, Peter tries to marry his son in Vermont to get at the fortune. When Lois manages to stop the wedding, instead of realizing he should've just spent more time with his son, he says "I guess it was wrong to try to marry your son under false pretenses", to which Stewie replies "You should've known that." In "Seahorse Seashell Party" Stewie talks to the viewers at the end about drugs (following Brain's trippy experience with drugs in the course of the episode) and reminds the viewers that they can learn more about drugs by visiting their local library because, as he puts it "There is probably a guy behind the building selling drugs". The trope is lampshaded is an episode who gives us two particularly absurd morals:

He concludes his speech by yelling, "U.S.A.!" repeatedly while the crowd cheers along in a spoof of the film Rocky IV. Another one is when Clara learns that it's bad to keep your roommate sick by force feeding him an entire bottle of drain cleaner... because then if the sink gets clogged, you'll have no way to unclog it.

Further more several of the building's high tech features came in handy such as the pest detectors and their telephone network. The real moral of the story should be "mogwai make terrible pets".

Spoof Aesop / int_fcf34eec	comment	In the Full Metal Panic! novel side story "Cinderella Panic!", it parodies the original fairy tale and gives a sort of backwards moral. Granted, the moral it gave was quite a bit more realistic than the original fairy tale's moral - "Don't always just rely on trying to find a "Prince Charming" who will bring you out of a bad situation, instead use your own strength and find a way out." Cinderella takes the lesson to heart and sells the other glass slipper for ludicrous profit to a would-be princess, before leaving the kingdom forever (together with the fairy godmother) to become a traveling merchant. Sousuke also delivers a spoof aesop at the end of Full Metal Panic? Fumoffu's rugby episode, wherein Sousuke declares that the rugby team's bad example has taught him the valuable experience that violence is never the answer... completely ignoring the fact that he is currently sitting in a literal penalty box for shattering the opposing team captain's jaw and that all the violence ensuing was at his instigation. Unamused by this irony, Kaname gives him a Dope Slap.

Spoof Aesop / int_fdbace96	comment	Gravity Falls In "Irrational Treasure", Pacifica makes fun of Mabel, leading her and Dipper to try to prove that Pacifica's ancestor was not the real founder of Gravity Falls. They succeed, but Mabel decides not to tell Pacifica, because she's learned that she has nothing to prove to her. After a Beat, Dipper says that he's learned nothing and rubs the truth in Pacifica's face himself. In "Summerween", Grunkle Stan decides that in the end, the titular holiday isn't about costumes, candy, or scaring people. It's a time for the whole family to get together and celebrate what really matters: "pure evil!" (Cue Evil Laugh) The moral of "Fight Fighters" is that Dipper and Robbie shouldn't fight over Wendy - instead, they should hate each other in secret ("Like girls do!"), because actually fighting is more likely to alienate Wendy from both of them. According to the final segment of the anthology episode "Little Shop of Horrors", Stop Motion animation is Black Magic. From "The Last Mabelcorn", Mabel's response to being told she's a "good person", after spending the entire episode attempting to prove just that:
