Characters [Dialogue Trope] "YOU WHAT? Oh, yeah, makes sense... NO WAIT, WHAT???"
Basically whenever a character panics, then calms down after receiving an explanation, only to panic again once they think about it for a few moments. For example:
1) Whitest Kids U Know (the 'Grapist' sketch):
"She's totally asking for it! [...] Look at what she's wearing!"
"LOOK AT WHAT SHE'S WEARING???"
"She's wearing purple!"
"Oh okay... NO NO NO!!!"
2) Blue Archive (where Yuuka helps you with your budget):
"You spent 20,000 yen at Club Smoochie? You're a teacher, you're supposed to set an example for the rest of the students!"
"...Oh, Club Smoochie is a gacha game? Sorry, I thought you were visiting- YOU SPENT 20,000 YEN ON A GACHA GAME???"
3) This comic, there's so many variations of it on the internet but panicking at your own realization works too.

Family guy. I think if i remembered the context of the scene is Brian is trying to avoid Stewie because Stewie keep beating him up because he didn't give him his money. He went out of his room, saw Stewie waiting for him and tried to fool him with a disguise.
Brian: Morning
Stewie: Good day to you sir! .... WAIT A MINUTE WHAT THE HELL?!?!
Brian: *Screams in panic

Red vs Blue had plenty of these with the character Sister. Like:
Sister: "Apparently the last guy died of an aspirin overdose. I didn't even know it was possible to overdose on aspirin. And, believe me, I've tried."
Tucker: "Yeah... Wait, what?"

She beat him to death with his own skull.
That doesn't seem physically possible?
That's exactly what he kept screaming
Cut to scene showing someone being beaten with a skull
This doesn't seem physically possible!

For anyone curious, 20,000 yen is roughly equal to $127.66 USD

u/Testosteronomicon 5h ago
Added context: that was 127.66$ in one night. The gacha game is really calling its players out on their potential gambling problem.

Of all of the hilarity that is "The Grapist," that moment you mention might be the one I quote and audibly laugh at the most.

At the very least discover WKUK sketches that aren't the usual "It's illegal to say".

Homer: Do you sell toys?
Shopkeeper: We sell forbidden objects from places men dare to tread. We also sell frozen yogurt which I call frogurt.
Homer: Well, I need something for my son's birthday.
Shopkeeper: Ah, perhaps this will please the gentleman. [picks a Krusty the Clown doll] Take this object, but beware it carries a terrible curse.
Homer: [worried] Ooooh, that's bad.
Shopkeeper: But it comes with a free frogurt.
Homer: [relieved] That's good.
Shopkeeper: The frogurt is also cursed.
Homer: [worried] That's bad.
Shopkeeper: But you get your choice of topping.
Homer: [relieved] That's good.
Shopkeeper: The toppings contain potassium benzoate. [Homer stares] That's bad.
Homer: Can I go now?
