It's the old Practical Joke of tricking some poor sap into smelling or otherwise admiring the flower on your shirt and you, via a hidden squeeze pump, squirt water from the flower into the victim's face. A typical stock gag for The Prankster and The Trickster. Characteristic of the Non-Ironic Clown. Related to Garden-Hose Squirt Surprise, where a garden hose is used instead of a flower. Truth in Television as these practical joke devices indeed exist. But although real-life versions of these can only hold a little amount of water, fiction likes to turn this prank up to eleven, with the flower unleashing a ridiculous amount of water, and/or under much higher pressure than what should realistically be possible for a simple squeeze pump. Can be turned into a Deadly Prank by having the flower squirt something far less harmless than water. |

CSI: NY: Homicide Det. Don Flack does not find this trope amusing. Subverted in "Child's Play" when a murder investigation leads to a joke shop run by a man called "Laughing Larry" who's wearing a plastic camera around his neck and grinning. While questioning him, Flack tells him that if he squirts him with it, he'll arrest him for assaulting an officer. The man gets a dejected look on his face and refrains. Subverted in "To What End?" While questioning a guy in a flash mob of mostly identical clowns, Flack notices him touching a fake flower on his chest and exclaims, "If you squirt me with that thing, I will shoot you right here in front of everybody; I'm not kidding!" The guy wisely chooses not to. |

The Simpsons: In "Homie the Clown", Homer, dressed as Krusty, squirts Bart with a flower, and then the water bounces off onto Lisa in a bank shot. Homer explains that the gag was his major at clown college. "Fear of Flying" begins with the crowd at Moe's bar pranking Moe in various ways. Barney asks Moe if he wants to smell his lapel flower. Moe does, and Barney takes the opportunity to light Moe's tie on fire. In "Pulpit Friction", Marge finds her wedding dress has been switched with Krusty's clown suit. She squirts the flower and it shoots vodka into her mouth. In "The Nightmare After Krustmas", when Reverend Lovejoy is resuscitating Krusty after he nearly drowned during an attempted baptism in a frozen river, water squirts out of Krusty's flower, which froze instantly due to the cold. "Clown v. Board of Education" shows that Legs and Johnny Tightlips from the mafia are fans of this trope, the latter wanting Krusty to give him a squirt between the eyes, but because Krusty is wearing a wire inside the flower which would short-circuit if he squirted, he's hesitant. This leads Johnny Tightlips to pull out his gun, demanding this gag. Ultimately, this trope was subverted because a sweatdrop lands on the flower, shocking Krusty, which the mafia goons accept as a funny enough substitution. |

Garfield: In this comic, when Jon is getting dressed for his date, he asks Garfield if he should go with a tie that contains a squirting flower, or one that can explode. In one comic, Jon tells Garfield the flower on his suit is one of these, but Garfield uses his claws to scare Jon out of actually using it on him. |

One of the many ancient gags employed by the Fools' Guild in Discworld: In Men at Arms, the Guild greeter asks Nobby and Colon "It's a long shot, I know, but I don't suppose either of you gentlemen would like a sniff of my buttonhole?" They don't fall for it, and it's clear he never really expected them to, because no-one ever does. The flower squirts slightly as an involuntary reaction when he gets emotional. In Making Money, the Patrician's dignity is threatened by a practitioner of clown martial arts (sloshi), leading to the weirdest He's Got a Weapon! in the multiverse: |

Lucky Luke: In the spin-off series Rantanplan, the story "Le Clown" sees the titular dog and a Bratty Half-Pint named Douglas and up in a circus. When the clowns get injured just before the show, Douglas quickly dresses himself and Rantanplan up as clowns to take their place. As one of his first jokes, Douglas sprays Rantanplan with a squirting flower. With Rantanplan being who he is, the dog immediately passes out and Douglas has to perform CPR to get rid of the water Rantanplan inhaled, much to the amusement of the audience. | |

JoJo's Circus: In "Flower Shower", it's shown that adult clowns always take sentient squirting flowers to work. When JoJo's father's flower runs out of water, JoJo and Goliath go to the garden to get him a replacement, but every time they get close to the squirting flowers, they get sprayed. However, Bal Boa advises that they move from side to side like a snake so that they can get one without getting water in the face, and it works. | |

Killer Klowns from Outer Space: When Jumbo visits officer Mooney in his office, he offers Mooney a bouquet of flowers that end up spraying water in his face. Surprisingly, although the Klowns are usually fond of putting deadly spins on these classic pranks, it really is just water and all it does is piss Mooney off (at this point Jumbo was still toying with Mooney rather than planning to kill him). | |

Not being in the mood for putting up with Lombard's bullish antics, Clark subtly manipulates the fake flower so it squirts Steve instead. | |

Subverted in ASDF Movie 1. One of the scenes has a guy asking another guy to smell his artificial flower. Instead of squirting water from the flower, a monster pops out from his chest. | |

In Batman (1989), the Joker uses the flower on his lapel to try to squirt acid on Vicki Vale and later uses it to try to drop a bell on Batman during the cathedral sequence. | |

My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic: the episode "The Last Laugh" has Pinkie Pie inspecting Cheese Sandwich's laugh factory and its party goods, where upon looking at the squirting flower, Pinkie suggests something radical like making the whole costume squirt. That gave the management a great idea. | |

In Kingdom of Loathing, you can find an acid-squirting flower, dropped by the demonic clowns in The "Fun" House. Whenever you take damage, it'll squirt the enemy to deal damage. | |
