This sort of story has been around for awhile, but mostly in prose efforts. Recently having purchased a copy of the Mammoth Book of Wolfmen, edited by Stephen Jones, (part of Robinson Books line of "Mammoth Books of" genre anthologies, including the annual Mammoth Book of Best New Horror) a prime example is to be

Lopez's take on the matter almost always seems to skew toward "Unlike you soft, meek honkies, we earthy ethnics take pride in threatening our children with beatings. Mi abuela would come after us with a flaming bullwhip, ay chingow! We certainly learned never to interrupt her during her telenovelas again! Try that

Eyyyyyyyy, silly white people "punish" their children by trying to bargain with them like they're little adults, while we Latinos are more practical and threaten them with brutal violence!
- a significant part of George Lopez's sitcom and stand-up oeuvre.

Especially during that period in the 1980s and 1990s where it looked like every stand up comic was being offered their own complementary sitcom project. Most of these projects that made it to air went over like lead balloons, and were shunted off the schedule - there was no comedian too talented that couldn't be put

You'd spraypaint it everywhere, with the wording placed right in the middle of a totally subversive silhouette of Queen Elizabeth wearing a Bomberman helmet.

Partly because I think Tim & Eric work better when they rein in some of their worst tendencies, i.e. mugging for the cameras to let the audience know this is A TOTALLY ZANY PARODY or closeups of disgusting things that linger too long.

I managed to get a look at the manuscript for Morrissey's novel and was able to copy down the opening before I had to flee at risk of being discovered. Now I quote it for you, here:

I can't help but think about those series of "banksy as a roommate tweets" or whatever and EDIT: oh wait, found them.

Many of the comics are just literal, plodding adaptations of the "inspirational" quotes.

Now listen, the premise is what if The Grapes of Wrath continued with Tom Joad becoming a mysterious costumed vigilante who goes after those who prey on the poor and disaffected of the Depression era.

There's plenty of Mythos inspired fiction, especially in recent years, getting published. Oh my, so many anthologies.

Back when the big news about Fogle's home being raided broke, I came across a whiny speech about FREE JARED on imgur, it was a huge bunch of nerds insisting that Jared Did Nothing Wrong and people are way too judgmental about child porn.

That Taylor fellow was pretty depraved, to quote from an article:

I've been a bit of a UNCLE fan for awhile now, even taking in some of the other media like the tie-in novels. For instance, there was The Rainbow Affair by Daniel McDaniel, noted for all of the thinly-disguised cameo appearances by various other characters, Miss Marple, Simon Templar, the retired Sherlock Holmes,

FOR THE GLORY

Let's not forget about all of the Man from UNCLE fanzines, some of which published fanfiction well before that became a thing on the internet - a handy list here:
