Hand pointing up icon Summary & key points

In season 4, episode 13 (chapter 52) of the hit Netflix show called House of Cards (2016), President Frank Underwood and Vice President Claire Underwood are in the situation room watching a terrorist threat come to fruition. In the live feed, the domestic terrorists are shown decapitating a hostage. Almost everyone in the room reacts with a gasp, body movement, or utterance – except Frank and Claire. This complete lack of bodily or verbal reactions demonstrates the Sensation attribute. Frank Underwood is scary sometimes.

In Katy Perry's hit single "Roar" (2013), the musical artist inspired millions around the world to embrace their own inner spirit animal. The powerful lyrics feature nature and wild animals as a core theme. However, listeners are left with many questions regarding many ambiguous lines. For example, the phrase "You held me down, but I got up (hey)" begs several questions: who is Perry referring to and what incident is she referencing, if real at all? It could be a figure of speech or a literal reference to the tragedy of domestic abuse. Lines like these and "I let you push me past the breaking point / I stood for nothing, so I fell for everything" require context not provided by Katy Perry, and this lack of detail demonstrates a well below-average example of the Specificity attribute.

When the 'marketing boys' said that he needed a logo, Doctor Manhattan said that he would only choose a symbol he respected. He thus carved the symbol of an atom on his forehead, giving him the circular branding most viewers are accustomed to seeing.

In a 2018 NBC News interview with Megyn Kelly featuring Russian President Vladimir Putin, Kelly interviewed the Russian leader in Moscow. As Megyn directed confrontational questions, President Putin kept his poise and matched the tone and demeanor of his counterpart. At the end, Putin even politely rebuked that Megyn had been cutting him off during the interview, downplaying Megyn's intended portrayal as a kind, polite journalist. Putin's ability to recognize and defend against the attacking journalist's charged questions with logical references to the world, its governance, and relations highlight the Formality attribute far above average.
