Parodies normally exaggerate source material. Occasionally they don't — they repeat the original's exact words to show just how absurd they really sound. The quote, inserted in a parody context, often sounds as ridiculous or funny as the surrounding parody dialog. This is commonly seen in Stealth Parody, in which case it may lead to Poe's Law. See also "Not Making This Up" Disclaimer, for when the work explicitly states that it's not exaggerating the original. If the work mistakenly quotes the original, it's Redundant Parody. Compare Review Ironic Echo. |

This happens as well with the editors/producers of Channel Awesome or similar review sites. Often music is added or a sound effect to emphasize the awkward situation. Though sometimes the films themselves are oddly edited prompting a "No, I didn't add anything." The Nostalgia Critic, in particular, will typically add one of the more Narmful lines from the film to the end of the review. In his review of Pixels, unable to use footage from the movie as it hasn't been released on home video yet, he re-enacts scenes from the movie with his own actors. The Kevin-James-as-U.S.-President character is played by an actor impersonating Barack Obama, to highlight how unbelievable it is for a U.S. President to say or do any of the things the Kevin James character does in the film. While possibly a Parody Retcon, Rob mocked people on The Lorax (2012) commentary for "not getting" that the review having straw character execs while complaining about the movie having the same was intentional. Brows Held High had, after Kyle said The Doom Generation showed the worst traits of The '90s, '90s Kid shows up and rants about the finer aspects of the movie - while a disclaimer reveals his words were actually part of the film's marketing! |

The Simpsons episode "Radio Bart" features the Superstar Celebrity Microphone, which is a parody of the now oft-forgotten Mr. Microphone. The ad for it features a direct lift from the original commercials for Mr. Microphone: that being, a guy driving by in his car and saying "Hey, good-looking, we'll be back to pick you up later!" | |

Airplane! is largely word-for-word quoted directly from the film Zero Hour! (1957), but with the serious deadpan delivery taking place in absurd surroundings. Reportedly, the line "We need to find someone who can not only fly this plane, but who didn't have fish for dinner!" was what convinced the writers that it had the makings of a comedy classic. | |

A stealth form appears in the Dilbert spinoff book Clues for the Clueless: Dogbert's Big Book of Manners, which claims that other etiquette books waste space on "such useful tidbits as what kind of uniform the upstairs servants should wear, or the proper way to address the Pope when you meet him in person." These are actual topics addressed in Miss Manners' Guide to Excruciatingly Correct Behavior, albeit in a tongue-in-cheek trivia section called "Answers to Questions Nobody Asked." | |

The Daily Show does this all the time. Interviewing John Stewart, Rachel Maddow even claimed to see little difference between his method of parodying events and her own of humorously reporting on them. A special (and rather serious) mention goes to their comparison of FOX's coverage of the Ferguson tragedy to FOX's coverage of Benghazi. 10 minutes of repeating FOX's own demands of how the media should respond to Ferguson, repeated back at them for how they should respond to Benghazi. |

Max0r: Most of the dialogue in "An Incorrect Summary of Ace Combat Zero" is replaced with a Gag Dub, but certain lines from the original game such as Pixy being asked whether he's slowing down due to a mechanical issue following the Hoffnung bombing and responding "I'm just sad", or PJ announcing he's going to propose to his girlfriend now that the war's over seconds before he's shot down make it in verbatim, complete with an "ACTUAL IN-GAME DIALOGUE" disclaimer. He does the same thing in "An Incorrect Summary of Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater", with regards to the line "You are above even the Boss. I hereby award you the title of Big Boss." A lot of one-liners in Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance similarly prove almost impossible to parody, with lines like "Don't fuck with this Senator!" (followed by him punting Raiden like a football and provoking an inexplicable crowd-cheer in the background) being entirely in-place with the stuff Max0r was making up. |

The MAD parody of the first X-Men movie put Storm's infamous "Do you know what happens to a toad when it's struck by lightning?" question in italics and quotes to indicate that it's from the actual movie. Toad then replies that he doesn't, but he now knows that "Have you ever danced with the devil in the pale moonlight?" is no longer the stupidest question asked in a comic book movie. | |

The Weekly with Charlie Pickering: When covering Donald Trump's combination Bible-and-founding-documents-of-the-USA, Charlie notes that normally, this would be the point where the show plays a parody commercial for it... but they don't have to, because the official commercial is ridiculous enough. They then play it unaltered. | |

Sword Art Online Abridged: One episode riffs on Lisbeth's dub line about the Elucidator being the "gnarliest sword you can get from a monster drop": Episode 11 has Abridged Kirito, somewhat melodramatically, repeat Canon Kirito's request that Kayaba prevent Asuna from killing herself should he manage to lose their duel: Also in episode 11, there's a moment during the final conversation between the heroes and Kayaba when they ask him why he turned Sword Art Online into a death game. He initially states his canon motive, only to laugh that off and admit that he actually did it because he was heavily sleep-deprived and thought the Game-Breaking Bug that made Sword Art Online The Most Dangerous Video Game would give it bad reviews on Metacritic, and his best idea was to pretend it was all part of his master plan. |

Mystery Science Theater 3000 does this a few times. For "Pod People", two of the host segments consist of re-enacting some of the film's most bizarre scenes almost verbatim. For The Phantom Planet, they poke fun at Ray Makonnen's out-of-nowhere Contemplate Our Navels monologue ("You know, Captain, every year of my life, I grow more and more convinced that the wisest and best is to fix our attention on the good and the beautiful... if you just take the time to look at it.") by reciting the entire thing later, multiple times. For Track of the Moon Beast, the bots re-enacted a part of the movie in which some people play a weird, elaborate, ineffective prank on an archeologist, then spend several minutes explaining it and apologizing for it. It's almost a word-for-word re-enactment. This is usually the purpose of The Stinger in most episodes: a few seconds of the film that are bizarre or stupid enough that they don't need riffing. |

Saturday Night Live had a famous skit about Sarah Palin during the 2008 U.S. presidential race. The skit very intentionally consisted almost entirely of actual Palin lines from her interview with Katie Couric. A couple of judicious additions and Tina Fey's delivery were all it took. They also used this trope in a Weekend Update parodying Jimmy McMillan, leader of the Rent Is Too Damn High Party. |

Blue Laser in Cheat Commandos is a fairly obvious parody of COBRA in G.I. Joe - and though several of their plots are clearly made up, their first appearance had them attempting to "blow up the ocean." It sounds totally in line with most Blue Laser plans, but it's ripped straight from an actual episode where COBRA got their hands on a formula that could turn bodies of water into explosives. | |

Dragon Ball Z's early English dubs would be mocked quite a bit this way by the Abridged series: One of the earlier episodes has Raditz tearing off Piccolo's arm, followed by the mocking line "Has anyone seen my arm? You can't miss it, it's green!" This line is present verbatim in pretty much every parody, rewrite or Abridged Series of DBZ. Piccolo's "I can win! I feel great!" speech made it, unaltered, into the abridged series. The only difference was having Nail voice in at the end. Recoome's pithy pre-combat taunt of "The name's Recoome, it rhymes with doom and you'll be hurting all too soon" was also imported verbatim into the abridged series. Unlike the other two, it changed context quite a bit, becoming the character's catchphrase and part of his Professional Wrestling persona. Jumping back to the first part of the series, Nappa destroys some news vehicles, prompting a reporter to shout "Oh my God, he blew up the cargo robot!" However, the TFS version has him follow up with "...and the cargo was people!" |
