ACrack Fic is often considered the result of a challenge, either from someone besides the author or from the author themselves; "this idea is completely unworkable, but I bet I can make it work." The name stems from the notion that the author must have been ingesting some illegal substance just to think up the idea, let alone write it.

Advertising Miller Lite did a whole campaign of weird commercials in 2008, combining Sumo wrestling with high diving, ice hockey with a beauty pageant, football with an art gallery, golf with football, a cooking show with wrestling, skiing with a recliner, ten pin bowling with luge, a dog show with drag racing, baseball with bass fishing, and a lawyer show with calf roping.


Anime & Manga Hetalia: Axis Powers: History on crack. In the bonus episode of Darker than Black, one of Misaki's co-workers got it in her head to write Hei into her Crack Fic. Given Yin's recitation, it involved improper relations with an elephant. Cross Epoch, the tongue-in-cheek One Piece/Dragon Ball crossover. Sailor and the Seven Ballz/ 2: Return of the Ballz/ Star Ballz: Sailor Moon, Dragon Ball Z (and, in the third film, Star Wars: A New Hope, in which Darth Vader inexplicably wears a Mickey Mouse baseball cap over his helmetnote Star Ballz came out fully ten years before Disney bought Lucasfilm) and as much cameos as they feel they can, er, stuff in, hard-boiled in Cialis. Has the dubious honour of being sued and winning because it's technically a parody, as well as being a 4Chan shitpost in anime form. It was actually sold on a site called "Amuzon."


Audio Plays Baker's End, an audio drama where Tom Baker (As Himself) has died (possibly by falling off a very high building) and returned as an Ambiguously Human pantomimic cat-king to solve mysteries in a Town with a Dark Secret full of twerking old ladies that shoot laser beams from their breasts. And the fact it's a Serial Numbers Filed Off version of the same writer's Fourth Doctor dramas for BBC Audio just makes it weirder.


Live-Action TV One episode of Newsradio has the cast in period costume as passengers on the Titanic without explanation. Another featured the cast waking up centuries later from a cryogenic sleep. "Can't Smeg Won't Smeg" was the first feature of Red Dwarf Night, the Red Dwarf Tenth Anniversary Celebration. It's basically Red Dwarf as a cooking show, based on a real English cooking show. One full of the unintentional hilarity that comes of asking these characters to cook.


Music Similar to Super Smash Bros., we have "The Ultimate Showdown of Ultimate Destiny", which has unrelated characters such as Godzilla, Indiana Jones, the Care Bears, Mister Rogers, and everyone else in between, all battling each other to the death in Tokyo for no apparent reason. Jacques Offenbach, a famous composer of his time, wrote an opera about E. T. A. Hoffmann's love life told as if the latter was the protagonist of his tales. Given Hoffmann's style, The Tales of Hoffmann is weird.


Webcomics Jack's third episode of Totally Non Canon Theater, Frigid McThunderbones. There are no words to describe it except "cracky". Well, and probably also "offensive" (at least one point to any given reader). In The Inexplicable Adventures of Bob!, Molly likes to write fanfics along the lines of The Brothers Karamazov meets Harold and the Purple Crayon. Harold uses his purple crayon to draw a door on Dmitri's Siberian prison cell wall, then they and Grushenka go trekking across the Siberian wilderness. And the Moon goes with them. In-universe: Late into Homestuck, the Big Bad creates his own retelling/version of the story titled Homosuck, a Stylistic Suck comic where everyone looks like Problem Sleuth (the previous entry in MS Paint Adventures), which first starts off parodying some complaints about the first act before killing off John, then moving on to a story of Dave having all of the female humans in love with him. At one point, Dave even fights off enemies (which are taken directly from a book) using a sword made out of images that his species deems as "pornography".


Web Original While the SCP Foundation mainly focuses on horror, it has a ton of stories that can best be described as crackfics. Crackfic is even in the title of this story. The lolFoundation canon manages to be crackfic and horror at the same time. It takes place in a setting where the Author Avatars got themselves effectively turned into Mad Gods, warping the Foundation into a twisted parody of itself while civilization is devastated by the consequences of their antics which they are unable to precieve. Basically everything in Cool War 2: Ruiz From Your Grave. It originally was a fake hub page for a sequel to the Cool War that was posted as an April Fool's joke, but then people actually started writing stories using the fake chapter titles. The Cack hub is a place for collecting crack fic stories too silly for lolFoundation. I can't even begin to explain what is going on in this story. Something about cowboys, a man made out of fish, bombs that make you have flashbacks, and guns that shoot muzak. Several Joke SCPs fall under this. Probably the best example is this one which was written using a predictive text app. It even inspired its own crackfic titled A Surprise Encounter With Crispy Sex Pirates. The Shark Punching Center pretty muck exists for people to write crackfiction about it.


Western Animation Duck Dodgers provides several examples: The episode where Duck Dodgers joined the Green Lantern Corps. Yes, they used the actual DC characters. He went to Oa and fought Sinestro and everything. On that basis, the episode where he ate poorly made Fugu, hallucinated he was Samurai Quack and fought Aku/Happy Cat, who was actually his father. There is also episode where Dave Mustaine from Megadeth saves the day. Keep in mind that his early albums are certainly not for young children. Both Space Ghost Coast to Coast and Harvey Birdman, Attorney at Law are entirely premised as a Crack Fic. Phineas and Ferb: Mission Marvel has Phineas and Ferb with characters from the Marvel Universe. The Critic had a Show Within a Show version, where Jay reviews the new Clint Eastwood movie, Beverly Hills Robo Canine Cop and a Half 2. In the clip shown, Eastwood (as his Dirty Harry character) gets a new partner who promptly explodes. He then gets five more, a lady cop, a cute little kid, an ugly old dog, a dinosaur, and a leprechaun (the last of which explodes). In the next clip, the unlikely group meets another cop with a worse group: a pig, an alien, a pair of Siamese twins, a sofa, and a second-rate mime. (Who explodes.) Like most of the films Jay reviews, this one looks pretty bad.


Other There's a certain word game where one person starts a story with the first sentence, and each person in the group adds on another sentence. With certain groups of people competing to make the story even weirder than it was before, this can get pretty surreal. Also goes for certain improv games. The more formalized version is called "Consequences," and asks a different person to fill in one of the following, in order, then fold the paper so his entry is unreadable and pass to the next person. The items are 1. Man's Name 2. Woman's Name 3. Place 4. Reason they were there 5. What he said 6. How she replied 7. What happened. Cue hilarity.


Specific Authors All of D'arkYagam'i's stories. Aside from the 48-chapter-long Dark Yagami and its many spin-offs, his much shorter take on the Harry Potter universe is also extremely bizarre. Anything written by Oxenstierna D Yuki Rin. Her Crack Fics have everything and anything a Crack Fic could have, including musical numbers, parodies, pop culture references, Big Lipped Alligator Moments, her OCs for One Piece that are very wacky themselves, cameos made by various anime characters, and even things that should reach Memetic Mutation status. Essentially anything David Gonterman writes is unintentionally a Crack Fic... of the worst possible kind. Nearly everything written by Dannichu. Anything by Peter Chimaera. Quarter-Life: Halfway to Destruction. Peter Chimaera book of hsitorical faFfiction is 44 pages of gold. One story, Einstein's Theory of Justice, starts with Einstein "discovering" that he "invented" his Theory of Relativity and ends with a battle with Thomas Edison who used the theory to time travel to that moment to steal it for himself and take the credit. It really picks up once Edison recruits the mummy of Julius Caesar to fight Einstein. Batman: Nemesis Fight. We won't spoil anything in the short story. One of the current kings of this trope is Shadow Crystal Mage. His works include such gems as: Takamachi Nanoha of 2814 where the eponymous character gets a Green Lantern Ring on top of Raging Heart. That's just the first chapter. The later chapters gets more insane, with Megazords, Godzilla and somehow this very Wiki getting thrown in... Magical Girl Magistra Erebea Molly!. the world's first The Dresden Files / TV Tropes crossover. VENGEANCE! The Musical! The Story of Uchiha Sasuke!: 8 year-old Sasuke makes a play about how he's going to kill Itachi. It becomes a big hit and Konoha's biggest tourist attraction. The Door is a TaleSpin/Stargate SG-1 crossover that actually makes sense. Yes, furries and the Stargate universe and it makes sense. Worth a look if you like both franchises. Oddly, his stories also tend to take on a serious note in later chapters, generally around chapter 3 or 4, with things like plot and character development appearing, without in any way reducing the crack level. If Shadow Crystal Mage is the king of this trope, then Sue Mary is surely the queen. She wrote a fanfic where Hannah Montana falls in love with Po. Many of Hans Von Hozel's works fall into this category. Fics by crow-of-murders fall under Crack Fic. You Got HaruhiRolled! is far from author superstarultra's only Crack Fic, merely his best known. His other work includes The Obesity of Haruhi Suzumiya, about the SOS Brigade's misadventures in Fat Camp, and the Super Paper Mario fic Dimentiosweeper, where Minesweeper gets a little... violent. Rorschach's Blot has some hilarious stuff posted. dogbertcarroll as well. Mr Law writes crack fics in various forms, from depressingly realistic The Familiar of Zero shorts to overly ridiculous Castlevania stories. His latest series, To-Love-Death imagines the cast of the sci-fi romantic comedy To Love Ru facing off a zombie invasion. Note its sequel To-Love-Carnage takes the crack to high levels. Just about anything by DoritoDew, especially his aptly titled "bullshit i pull out of my ass" series. Most of Curtis Wildcat's works fit this category with varying levels of seriousness and length. They range from Monsters In Paradise, which features Pokmon getting purposefully dropped into Gensokyo and having oddball interactions with the residents, to The Guardian's Trial, in which Fairy Leviathan brainwashes herself into thinking she's Groucho Marx. The level of crack is directly proportionate to a story's length in that the shorter it is, the more crack there's likely to be. diosleftthigh69 can most accurately be described as Comics Nix if he focused on anime and manga instead of western media and also was obsessed with contemporary internet culture. In addition to traits typical for this kind of fanfiction, such as terrible grammar, copious amounts of gross-out humor and absurd plotting, their stories usually feature references to various real-life industrial companies/products and online celebrities. The author also has a YouTube channel where they post Animated Adaptations of their works, which are drawn with the same level of skill as the original fanfictions are written and on top of that have all the characters' voices provided either by a text-to-speech or, in newer videos, by the author themself. Everything by Shakespeare Hemmingway; the fact that most of their stories star a manly, desired-by-women and feared/respected-by-men version of Garfield would be enough, but the writing style (largely Beige Prose and Department of Redundancy Department) and the stuff they're based on (The King's Speech, High School Musical, and The British Royal Family, just to name a few) further land them squarely in this territory. Archive of Our Own users are probably familiar with Hitlertheducknote The name is a reference to the comic character Howard the Duck, a notorious Crack Fic author who's works have even ended up with pages on this Wiki, as well as Dramatic Readings on TikTok. For example Charles Manson Vs The Teletubbies, Authors Note and Blood Meridian with extra sprinkles. RoseMuffins is known for writing crack fics about hololive Virtual You Tubers and Western Animation. Their best known work is Cool Cat Saves Vietnam.
