Parodies
The expression has become a snowclone, sometimes for humorous effect. Examples: What Would Jesus Buy?, "What Would Lincoln Do?", What Would Brian Boitano Do?, "What Would Johnny Cash Do?", "What would Tintin do?" and "What Would Wellstone Do?" and "What would Reagan do?". "Who would Jesus bomb" is a common bumper sticker for advocates of peace.
The gossip blog What Would Tyler Durden Do? is a reference to the phrase, replacing "Jesus" with the name of a character from the novel Fight Club (and the film adaptation).
South Park uses the bracelets in the episode "A Scause for Applause".

Famous quotes containing the word parodies:
“The parody is the last refuge of the frustrated writer. Parodies are what you write when you are associate editor of the Harvard Lampoon. The greater the work of literature, the easier the parody. The step up from writing parodies is writing on the wall above the urinal.”
—Ernest Hemingway (18991961)
