Barney envisions pulling one at the hypothetical wedding between Ted and a girl Barney had called "dibs" on earlier:.Cut to the same scene, except Ted's performance is awful, and the mic drop ends in uncomfortable bar patrons and some nasty feedback. Immediately afterwards, Lily points out that the bourbon only makes it sound good to Ted. Cut to him giving a performance at MacLaren's, complete with a mic drop and wild applause. Ted claims to become "weirdly good" at beatboxing when drinking bourbon.More recently, his character Riblet, who appears on Weekend Update to antagonize Michael Che by trying to one-up him as a news anchor, will typically finish his appearance with one of these. In a recurring sketch where a number of eccentric characters come up to speak during a wedding/funeral/etc., he's played a character who exists for no other reason than to manically scream "WHAAAAAAAAAAT?!" and drop the mic.
Bobby Moynihan from Saturday Night Live seems to love this trope.Technically not a microphone, but the gesture and the sentiment are the same. As Daenerys and her army leave Astapor, she drops the ceremonial whip behind her without so much as a backwards glance. She then declares the Unsullied to be free men instead of slaves, and they willingly choose to follow her. She then orders Drogon to incinerate slave master Kraznys and the Unsullied to sack the city of Astapor. After trading her largest dragon Drogon for the Unsullied army, Daenerys receives a ceremonial whip, a symbol of her ownership of the Unsullied. In-universe example in Game of Thrones: Season 3, Episode 4, "And Now His Watch Has Ended".
Peter Dinklage does this at the end of his Red Nose Day song "I'm Still Going Strong" (about how his character on Game of Thrones hasn't been killed off yet). which she first had to pull out from behind her desk because she wasn't using it during said rant.
The Daily Show with Jon Stewart: Jessica Williams ended an epic rant about racism with a mic drop. It makes an ugly and loud feedback sound and everyone winces. Kimmy from Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt does a mic drop during a presentation. Maeby in Arrested Development s4e12, giving her presentation on Fakeblock to a room of investors. He did it again with a PDA in a "Mean Tweets" segment on Jimmy Kimmel Live! after responding to Donald Trumps tweet that he was the worst president ever: "Well, at least I will go down as a president!" Either harsher or hilarious in hindsight after the 2016 election, depending on one's political leanings. Well, he didn't so much drop the mic as awkwardly set it down. The actual Barack Obama did this on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon at the end of a "Slow Jam the News" segment. A rapper in the street says "I'm the boss and the king!" Obama pulls up in his limo, takes the mic and says "I'm the leader of the Free World" and drops the mic. Done by Peele (as Obama) on Key & Peele. In the climactic battle of the drumlines, the A & T players finish by all dropping their drumsticks. Max Renn does this in Videodrome after shooting down Barry Convex and subsequently screaming " DEATH TO VIDEODROME! LONG LIVE THE NEW FLESH!". In Happy Death Day 2U, after Tree writes a complicated boardful of equations (which she had to forcefully memorize while living the same day over and over), she does this with the marker, with an added utterance of "Boom!". Faith does this after finishing a song in Strange Days. Hardy does it again in Venom: Let There Be Carnage, this time as the titular symbiote attends a rave to make a speech about acceptance and aliens. Tom Hardy as Bane does this in The Dark Knight Rises after giving his big speech to Gotham at the football stadium, tossing the microphone on the dead body of Dr. In Tenacious D in The Pick of Destiny JB knocks the mic stand over after the D's first "concert" (a one-song amatuer/open mic night).
